Surprised by Song Xun’s directness, Qiao Rui lifted her gaze and glanced at him; he had actually asked outright.
Qiao Rui, expressionless, looked at him and spoke, "Mr. Song has a keen sense of sll, I must admire that. I do indeed have a rather bad impression of you, oh, but of course not against you personally, I’m just a bit resentful."
Naturally, Qiao Rui wasn’t about to dig her own grave; she could hold back if she needed to.
But thinking about the suffering Muyu had gone through, and seeing Song Xun like this now, she naturally wanted to vent her sense of injustice in her own way.
"Oh?" Song Xun frowned slightly. "I don’t quite understand what you an."
Pei Liyan was also taken aback, looking thoughtfully towards Qiao Rui.
Under normal circumstances, Qiao Rui should not be so impolite.
Her attitude towards Song Xun was indeed quite sharp, and she seed to harbor significant hostility.
Why?
The question surfaced in Pei Liyan’s mind, and he couldn’t help but take another look at Qiao Rui.
Qiao Rui tugged at the corner of her mouth and said, "A sister of mine used to have a boyfriend who looked a bit like Mr. Song. My friend was deeply in love with him, but unfortunately, she was cruelly abandoned, which left my good sister heartbroken. Whenever I see you, I can’t help but see you in the role of that scumbag. It’s my problem."
Although she said this, there was not the slightest hint of apology in her tone.
Song Xun’s eyes narrowed slightly; he had the feeling that Qiao Rui’s words were not very credible.
He turned his gaze to Pei Liyan.
Pei Liyan looked sowhat surprised and also quite sorry towards Song Xun.
Without a doubt, Qiao Rui’s attitude towards Song Xun tonight was very poor.
Hearing the word "scumbag," Song Xun felt itchy all over.
Moreover, having been snubbed by Ruirui earlier tonight, he was already quite angry.
Now, to be treated without reason like this, he could only present a stern face and said to Qiao Rui, "It seems that my appearance is really not very favorable."
"Indeed, Mr. Song, your looks tend to attract romantic entanglents," Qiao Rui retorted.
"It seems Brother Pei has even better looks." Song Xun glanced at Pei Liyan, eager to see how Qiao Rui would respond.
And Qiao Rui said, "Yes, that’s why the two of you have such a good understanding, birds of a feather, aren’t you?"
In fact, what she ant was they were both cut from the sa cloth, two peas in a pod.
Song Xun’s eyes narrowed, and a wave of unexplained irritation surged from the bottom of his heart; sothing did not seem quite right.
However, out of respect for Pei Liyan, he could not lose his temper with Qiao Rui, after all, she was his wife.
One does not make the monk’s face lose face before the Buddha’s face.
"Sister-in-law is truly different from the rest. However, you are a person who values loyalty; surely those who are your friends must also be very fortunate."
"If they hadn’t encountered a scumbag, they definitely would be fortunate," Qiao Rui pulled at her lips and said insinuatingly once again.
Pei Liyan’s brows furrowed deeply.
Song Xun’s expression darkened and he said, "Brother Pei, I’m going to take my leave. I will instruct them to take care of Qiao Xiang’s matter."
"I’ll walk you out." Pei Liyan left with Song Xun.
Qiao Rui didn’t want to go outside, but Shen Shuyi had arrived, and she had to go.
So, Pei Liyan grabbed her hand and dragged her out to see off Song Xun and Shen Shuyi.
At this mont, Shen Shuyi was with He Lan, He Lan had stopped her from going to see Qiao Xiang, and together, they were chatting idly in the hotel room.
He Lan asked gossipy, "By the way, did you spend last night with Song Xun?"
Shen Shuyi’s face reddened, displaying a coy expression, and even punched He Lan lightly. "You rascal, what kind of questions are you asking? Can’t you leave with so dignity?"
He Lan laughed slyly instead, "I won’t tell anyone, just tell , how was the experience? Was it wonderful or was it wonderful?"
Shen Shuyi blushed even more, hemming and hawing, whispering, "Ah, I’m so embarrassed."
"Co on, tell , or I’ll tickle you!" He Lan extended her hand, pretending to pounce on her.
Shen Shuyi imdiately pleaded for rcy, "Stop it, stop fooling around, I’ll tell you!"
When Qiao Rui and Si Ran ca to find Shen Shuyi, they just so happened to hear the teasing laughter from inside.
They heard Shen Shuyi say, "The experience was very good; he was very impressive."
"Wahaha, I knew it - Song Xun is one of those super reserved n, always looking so serious, very cold, but absolutely wild in bed," He Lan blurted out.
"Shhh! Keep your voice down." Shen Shuyi, laughed by her, felt all the more embarrassed.
As luck would have it, Qiao Rui and Si Ran overheard them.
Qiao Rui’s red lips curled into a sneer as she swore in her heart that Song Xun was scum.
Si Ran was also taken aback upon hearing these words,
and a faint blush spread across her delicate face.
She hadn’t expected to overhear such a topic.
"So, is Song Xun really rich and imposing?" He Lan asked again.
Shen Shuyi imdiately exclaid in shock, "He Lan, are you really a lady of high society, talking like that?"
"Why wouldn’t I dare?" He Lan didn’t care at all.
"I give up on you!" Shen Shuyi dared not continue the conversation for fear of bringing up even more topics she couldn’t handle.
"But you haven’t answered yet!" He Lan insisted on getting to the bottom of this.
Qiao Rui couldn’t stand listening anymore. She was afraid if she heard any more, she wouldn’t be able to refrain from castrating Song Xun on Muyu’s behalf today.
So, Qiao Rui simply knocked on the door.
"Wow, soone’s really there!" He Lan exclaid in surprise, "Who is it?"
"It’s !" Qiao Rui answered in a deep voice, "Qiao Rui."
"Qiao Rui, co in!" He Lan said.
Qiao Rui pushed the door open and was t with Shen Shuyi’s blushing face, her gaze naturally scrutinizing her.
In an instant, Qiao Rui saw faint red marks in the pale hollow of Shen Shuyi’s neck—barely noticeable unless one looked carefully.
With that look, a cold glint flashed in Qiao Rui’s eyes.
But in the face of Shen Shuyi, Qiao Rui remained rational.
She smiled slightly and said, "Miss Shen, Mr. Song is ready to leave and asked us to co find you."
"Oh, I’ll be right there," Shen Shuyi also imdiately responded with a smile.
Then, she turned to He Lan and said, "He Lan, I’m going back first. I’ll call you to hang out next ti."
"Sure!" He Lan quickly agreed.
The two embraced at the door, reluctantly parting ways.
Shen Shuyi imdiately went to find Song Xun.
He Lan sighed from behind, "It seems her relationship with Song Xun is going very well. I was worried he was deceiving her before, but now it seems there’s no problem."
Qiao Rui was surprised, "Are you really that worried?"
"Worried, of course. From the look of it, Song Xun doesn’t seem to be that devoted to Shuyi," He Lan had noticed this from the start.
Qiao Rui was also taken aback, not expecting He Lan to have noticed.
He Lan saw Qiao Rui looking at her, sowhat puzzled. "What are you looking at for?"
"How did you notice?" Qiao Rui asked again.
"Shuyi ntioned it before," He Lan didn’t think too much and now didn’t feel as resistant to Qiao Rui, given that Qiao Rui had saved her. She wasn’t ungrateful and naturally felt thankful.
"Miss Shen ntioned it?" Qiao Rui was surprised.
"Yes," He Lan nodded, "She said that Song Xun isn’t interested in girls, he is only slightly warr to his sister, that’s Song Muyu, and for other won, he keeps his distance."
Qiao Rui froze for a mont.
Si Ran too was taken aback and instinctively glanced at He Lan.
He Lan, unsuspecting, continued, "I was previously worried she wouldn’t be happy marrying Song Xun and was always worried about her, but just now she said they’re getting along well and are even together, so I’m relieved."
After saying that, He Lan suddenly looked startled, sticking out her tongue. "Oops, I spilled Shuyi’s secret; you swear you won’t tell anyone!"
Qiao Rui couldn’t help but laugh. "I haven’t noticed Song Xun keeps other won at arm’s length."
"He only pays attention to his sister and Shuyi, right? I an single girls," He Lan said.
Qiao Rui thought for a mont and nodded. "I haven’t seen that either."
"Qiao Rui, why do I get the feeling from your tone that you really dislike Song Xun?"
Qiao Rui replied, "You’re mistaking, let’s go send them off."
