I thought Brother Dang was so clueless that it would take him a year or two to win her back.
Shen Dang didn’t realize Tang Honghe was thinking this, but seeing the misunderstanding, Shen Dang didn’t bother to explain.
After all, it was only a matter of ti.
The progress they were making now was already quite good.
"My brothers and sisters!" Qu Jiashu’s voice ca through the microphone.
Everyone turned to look at him.
Qu Jiashu raised his glass: "Have a good ti, everyone. Your presence here is an honor for , so drink and play to your hearts’ content tonight!"
Wuhu~
So people even whistled, causing quite a commotion.
Tonight, Qu Jiashu had also brought along his new girlfriend, who hadn’t been dating for long, to et a bunch of close friends, and they got to know each other.
Seeing Qiao Xi, the girl timidly ca forward to ask for her autograph.
Qiao Xi obliged and signed for her.
"Thank you so much, Qiao Xi, I really like you a lot."
"Thank you."
Qiao Xi smiled cheerfully.
Qu Jiashu’s girlfriend had a gentle and shy deanor, appearing to be a good match with Qu Jiashu.
The private room was too noisy, so Qiao Xi sat for a while and then quietly slipped out to find so quiet.
It was unexpected that she hadn’t gone far before encountering Chen Jiayan in the hallway.
"Brother Jiayuan, what brings you here?" Qiao Xi was sowhat surprised.
Chen Jiayan’s smile had a touch of warmth: "Our company is having a gathering here, what about you?"
Qiao Xi pointed to the end of the corridor: "Shall we talk over there?"
Chen Jiayan nodded: "Let’s go, I just discovered sothing interesting to share with you."
The two walked toward the small open-air garden at the end.
Just then, Qu Keke returned from the restroom and imdiately recognized Qiao Xi.
Now that the distance was farther, Qu Keke couldn’t see Chen Jiayan clearly, but that man was obviously not her Brother Dang... Could it be that Qiao Xi has another man on the side?
Qu Keke didn’t hesitate and followed them.
Qiao Xi sat on a swing in the garden.
Chen Jiayan leaned against the marble railing, looking at Qiao Xi through the warm yellow light of the rooftop.
Surrounding them, the flowers in full bloom exuded a subtle fragrance in the night air.
The wind gently teased the petals, swaying out their fragrant beauty.
"Are you here with Boss Shen?" Chen Jiayan asked her.
"Yes."
Chen Jiayan slightly curled his lips into a smile: "How are things between you and him now?"
"It’s just so-so."
Qiao Xi didn’t want to say too much to avoid worrying Chen Jiayan.
She didn’t ntion the incident with Chu Wan at all.
Qiao Xi glanced up: "What about you? You’re not planning on starting a relationship yet?"
Chen Jiayan spoke faintly: "Your affairs haven’t settled yet, what’s the rush for ?"
Qiao Xi quickly said: "Please, don’t think like that."
"Of course, I should wait until your affairs are settled, you know I—"
"Hey, Qiao Xi, you’re actually flirting with other n behind Brother Dang’s back!"
At this mont, Qu Keke couldn’t hold back and burst out, her face showing annoyance.
Qiao Xi: "...?"
"Who could be better than Brother Dang!"
Qu Keke glanced at Chen Jiayan with a hint of disdain, but that single glance froze her on the spot.
Of course, Shen Dang had the most outstanding features, but Chen Jiayan’s refined and cool deanor still took Qu Keke’s breath away for a mont.
His fair skin glowed like glazed tiles under the night lights, his deep-set eyes with pronounced double eyelids were clear, as if they held galaxies in their depths.
Under the handso brows, a fine nose adorned his well-defined and attractive face, which possessed both softness and strength, and his chilly aura was uniquely appealing.
Aside from Brother Dang’s circle of friends, were there really other n in Hai City who looked so handso?
Maybe it was the gentleness of the night, but Qu Keke’s heart fluttered wildly for an instant.
As if bewitched, she approached Chen Jiayan and looked up to ask: "Who are you? How co I’ve never seen you in Hai City?"
Qiao Xi: "..."
What mischief was Miss Qu up to now?
She interjected: "Qu Keke..."
"Qiao Xi, is she your friend?" Qu Keke turned to ask her.
"??" Qiao Xi, not comprehending, paused, then said: "No, he’s my brother."
"Oh, your brother." Qu Keke imdiately changed her expression, speaking sweetly: "Brother, can we beco friends?" Her voice was coy.
Qiao Xi: "???"
This spoiled miss was actively seeking to make friends?
Wrong, was her behavior not sowhat abnormal?
Chen Jiayan looked at Qiao Xi as if asking: Does this person have so serious illness?
Qu Keke looked at Chen Jiayan, full of anticipation.
"Can we?"
Chen Jiayan’s eyes were distant: "Sorry, I don’t know you, nor am I interested in becoming your friend."
Qu Keke hastened: "I’m Qu Keke, my brother is Qu Jiashu, the heir to the Qu Family. We have my dad and mom at ho, so now you know , right?"
"..." Chen Jiayan was speechless.
"Qu Keke, what are you doing?"
Qiao Xi stepped forward to pull Qu Keke back, feeling like the miss seed to be struck with infatuation.
Hadn’t she been desperately pursuing Shen Dang before?
"Qiao Xi, is your brother single now?" Qu Keke’s eyes sparkled.
"Xixi."
Shen Dang had looked for Qiao Xi upon noticing she was missing from the private room, and now he ca over.
Qiao Xi turned to look at him: "Why did you co?"
"To find you."
Shen Dang’s deep gaze swept over Chen Jiayan, then casually retracted.
Qiao Xi stated calmly: "I ran into Brother Jiayuan here and ca to talk to him."
"Oh." Shen Dang clasped her wrist, his voice cool and tender: "Let’s go back then. We’ll head ho soon, you have a show to tape tomorrow."
Qiao Xi: "...I haven’t even spoken yet."
"Xixi, you go back with Boss Shen, I’ll call you later."
Chen Jiayan smiled faintly at Qiao Xi.
Boss Shen’s look just now wasn’t very pleasant.
As n, they clearly understood that kind of possessiveness.
After several etings, Chen Jiayan could see that this Boss Shen was not like the rumors said.
At least towards Xixi, he was quite exceptional.
That was enough.
Without another word, Shen Dang pulled Qiao Xi away before she had the chance to say her goodbyes.
"What are you doing?"
Qiao Xi was both amused and frustrated.
Shen Dang’s eyes were deep, leading her forward without stopping: "I thought you were lost."
"..."
Nonsense.
As Qiao Xi left with Shen Dang, Qu Keke eagerly approached Chen Jiayan: "Your na is Jiayan? Which two characters?"
Chen Jiayan looked at her, coldly stating: "Miss Qu, I have no desire to be your friend."
"We could give it a try, what’s wrong with making a friend? I am Miss Qu of the Qu Family."
This man was exactly her type, completely, well... he had struck a chord with her heart.
Since Brother Dang was not going to fancy her anyway, she couldn’t always hang her hopes on that one man, right?
