"No, Sister Shen, that’s not what I ant. I just don’t know if I can do it well."
When Xiao Yi saw that Shen Xiaoxiao had misunderstood him, he hurriedly explained. After finishing, he embarrassedly lowered his head and said, "I have never been soone else’s boyfriend before, I don’t know what I should do."
"Giggle... Little brother, you’re not being honest. If sister hadn’t accidentally seen you and your little girlfriend together last night, I would have really been deceived by you."
Seeing Xiao Yi’s shy admission that he had never been soone else’s boyfriend, Shen Xiaoxiao almost believed it was true. She inwardly marveled at his acting skills. While chuckling, she decided to expose him, deliberately emphasizing the word "accidentally" as she spoke.
"My girlfriend? Sister Shen, you must be mistaken."
Upon hearing Shen Xiaoxiao’s words, Xiao Yi couldn’t help but freeze.
"Yesterday, at the Western restaurant, that young girl who was dining with you, isn’t she your girlfriend?"
Seeing Xiao Yi’s expression, which did not seem false, Shen Xiaoxiao also paused for a mont.
"Sister Shen, you’re mistaken. That was a school senior; she and I are just normal friends, not in the relationship you’re thinking of."
Xiao Yi hadn’t expected that Shen Xiaoxiao had seen him dining with Zhang Yuhuan yesterday, and quickly explained.
"So it’s like that. I thought it she was your girlfriend."
Shen Xiaoxiao, understanding Xiao Yi’s expression, finally realized she had been mistaken yesterday. She felt a bit embarrassed but then added teasingly, "Brother Xiao, that young girl yesterday was really nice. She must be very popular at school. You should step up your ga and make a move."
"Sister Shen..."
Xiao Yi looked helplessly at Shen Xiaoxiao.
"Alright, alright, I’ll stop teasing you. Actually, it’s very simple; once we arrive, just act a bit more affectionate with . Also, be mindful of how you address , just call Xiaoxiao. And don’t say you’re a student; just say you work at Jianguo Group... oh, and it might be better to change your na too. Let’s go with Chen Yi."
Seeing Xiao Yi’s helpless look, Shen Xiaoxiao dropped the playful tone and seriously started briefing him on what he needed to pay attention to. While discussing his new identity, she paused, then her eyes suddenly sparkled as she said, "You live in Old Fox Chen Jianguo’s villa, right? Just say you work at Jianguo Group."
After finishing her instructions, Shen Xiaoxiao looked at him seriously again and said, "Xiao Yi, have you really decided? I do hope you can help , but I must make it clear, that person has a very powerful background, much more powerful than Chen Jianguo. If you help , you might face a lot of danger. It’s still not too late to back out, and I won’t bla you; I’ll still treat you as my dear little brother."
"Sister Shen, rest assured, I have made up my mind. This is my choice. Even if he retaliates against later and sothing happens, I won’t bla you."
Xiao Yi, moved by Shen Xiaoxiao’s sincere and straightforward gaze, knew she could have simply ordered him to go without explaining anything. From her gaze, he felt that she truly needed his help. Yet she still chose to disclose everything, showing the great struggle she had to go through. For soone in a superior position like her, it was not easy to do this.
Most people in so-called high society see others, especially ordinary people, as re pawns, with a mindset that only differentiates between those who are useful and those who are not. They would never care about any harm they might cause to the pawns in the process of using them.
From this alone, he felt it was his undeniable responsibility to help her this ti. After all, although she had teased him relentlessly and made him blush on several occasions, since their first eting, he had considered her a friend. Moreover, he felt a special kind of trust when he was with her; not exactly a specific liking or the feeling a man has toward a woman, but yes, it must be trust— a sort of trust that made her seem reliable, a feeling rarely found in his interactions with others.
This might just be fate.
For this fate, it was also his undeniable responsibility.
As for that person’s powerful background and potential revenge, Xiao Yi simply dismissed it. Was he the kind of person who feared revenge? Let that guy co at him if he wanted; if he really angered him, Xiao Yi would make him regret coming into this world!
"Good, I knew I wasn’t wrong about you. You don’t need to feel too burdened. If that person really dares to go too far, I, Shen Xiaoxiao, am certainly not afraid of him!"
Hearing Xiao Yi agree without hesitation, and considering her clear explanation, his face showed no fear. She felt a sudden inexplicable touch of emotion and softly comforted him. During her speech, she snorted coldly through her nostrils, her expression showing a pride she had never revealed before Xiao Yi, exuding a frosty, haughty deanor.
Seeing the imposing aura that Shen Xiaoxiao suddenly displayed, and her protective words, Xiao Yi was both moved and slightly shocked. From her eyes, he saw a deep-seated confidence and pride, which could not be feigned through words or deliberate action. Moreover, he felt that this was the more genuine side of her.
But what exactly was her identity?
Xiao Yi was quietly curious, but he didn’t ask. He knew that when it was ti for her to tell him, she would explain everything.
During the rest of the drive, Shen Xiaoxiao stopped teasing Xiao Yi and talked more about that person and so details to be mindful of later on.
About half an hour later, the car entered a villa complex.
As the car entered the villa complex, night had already begun to fall; Xiao Yi couldn’t see much of the villas, but he could still sense a high-profile, affluent atmosphere emanating from the area.
