Chapter 569: Chapter 543: The Bad Egg and Jealousy
If Xiao Qian knew that buying a waterlon would bring her an old acquaintance, she definitely wouldn’t have entered this supermarket. She would never forget the surprised expressions on Yu Minglang’s and Ye Xiaoyu’s faces as they pointed at each other.
How could she describe her feelings at this mont? Xiao Qian felt it was more uncomfortable than eating rice mixed with sand – it was like cracking eggs into a bowl, with all of them being good, except for the last one being rotten.
As a result, the entire bowl of egg mixture had to be thrown away. How frustrating.
The excitent she had felt when she first saw Yu Minglang, the desire to embrace him despite her resolve, had all transford into a high alert.
Yu Minglang had no idea that Xiao Qian was already feeling jealous. He pointed at Ye Xiaoyu and Ye Xiaoyu pointed back at him. The two reached out their hands simultaneously, as if wanting to celebrate the reunion with a high-five, just like they had done during their student days after playing basketball.
Xiao Qian quickly picked up a lon with her left hand and stuffed it into Yu Minglang’s, while her right hand quietly pulled him back, successfully separating him from Ye Xiaoyu. Then, amidst Ye Xiaoyu’s surprised expression, she quickly picked up a cucumber and stuffed it into her hand.
“Do you know my fiancé Yu Minglang?” The word fiancé was very clear in her sentence.
A woman’s sixth sense for detecting rivals was beyond that of Sherlock Hols!
She could tell from Ye Xiaoyu’s surprised eyes that sothing was amiss.
“Fiancé?” Ye Xiaoyu seed genuinely surprised.
“Xiao i, do you know Xiao Yu?” Yu Minglang was the only one kept in the dark, as the two won had already begun their eye fights. He still imrsed himself in the joy of unexpectedly eting an old friend.
“She’s a well-known radio host from our radio station.”
Before Xiao Qian appeared as iwei, Ye Xiaoyu’s show had been the top-rated one with a huge following at the radio station.
She hosted a cody show, which many drivers loved to listen to, and they gave her the nickna Goddess of Rain. With her sweet voice and codic talent, Ye Xiaoyu was often invited to host various events and soon gained a good reputation in the radio station.
Many people believed that those with good voices wouldn’t be good-looking, but not only was Ye Xiaoyu’s voice sweet, but she was also very pretty. Her cheerful, humorous, and talkative personality earned her many fans and great popularity at the radio station.
However, after iwei ca on the scene and her show Soul Code’s ratings soared, Ye Xiaoyu’s cody show received so competition.
Although their shows were at different ti slots and completely different genres, the leaders and colleagues at the station often deliberately compared the two hosts.
Both were beautiful and charismatic: one sweet and cheerful, the other reserved and thought-provoking. Attractive won like these often attracted many rumors.
Xiao Qian never cared about these things. She had just joined the radio station after being caught by a teacher and was only planning to stay until her internship was over. Other people might think working at the radio station was a great job, but she didn’t care at all. She never attended any activities or etings held by the station, and any matters were usually communicated to her by phone by her director or leader.
Xiao Qian did hear the director ntion how her colleagues always compared her and Ye Xiaoyu. They said that after Xiao Qian joined the station, the Goddess of Rain felt threatened and developed a sense of crisis about her position at the station.
Xiao Qian only treated such words as a joke. To her, those trivial matters were nothing more than fleeting scenery she encountered along her journey. She was just a passerby.
But now seeing the unusual interactions between Ye Xiaoyu and Yu Minglang, Xiao Qian also beca more alert.
Ye Xiaoyu didn’t expect to et Yu Minglang again after so many years, with soone by his side, no less. That person was none other than the one who stole the spotlight at the radio station: iwei. While she still maintained a cheerful smile on her face, there was a tinge of sadness in it, which didn’t escape Xiao Qian’s eyes.
For so reason, the usually perceptive Yu Minglang was quite slow to understand the situation. He was clueless about what was going on.
“That’s right. This is my fiancée Chen Xiaoqian. Xiao Yu, are you married?” To him, she was just an old classmate and forr basketball teammate.
“I don’t even have a boyfriend yet, let alone find such… great fortune like you.” Ye Xiaoyu glanced at Yu Minglang and then at Xiao Qian, her sadness vanished for a mont, replaced by her trademark smile. People at the station said that she loved to laugh and many n liked her because they thought she was candid and always cheerful, innocent and unaffected.
“iwei, do you want this waterlon? Let’s give this to you. When I used to play basketball with Minglang, he often treated to waterlons. I’ll treat this one as a repaynt for his past kindness.” Ye Xiaoyu pretended to be generous.
Yu Minglang didn’t think much of it and was about to take it for Xiao Qian, who loved waterlon, when she pinched him on the waist and gave him a beaming smile.
“Just give it to her. It’s not every day that old classmates et, and who knows if you’ll see her again in the future since you live in different cities. Besides, he’s here with now, and I can buy more waterlons whenever I want. Dear, let’s pick so lons instead. We’ve had enough waterlons lately. Let’s try sothing else!” Xiao Qian directed the last sentence at Yu Minglang.
Oh my! She called him ‘dear’!
Xiao Qiang was ecstatic and almost felt like he was in heaven. He began to load the lons into a bag.
Xiao Qian’s confident gaze t Ye Xiaoyu’s, which was already struggling to maintain her smile and barely managing to hide a wave of the jealousy.
Don’t even ntion a lon. On the cucumber that only she had used, the words “Chen Xiaoqian exclusive use for eternity” were engraved. How dare you call that flirting?
After finishing their shopping, Yu Minglang saw that his old friend was still standing in front of the fruit stall, giving him a complicated look, and he asked her, “Aren’t you buying anything else?”
“No, I don’t need to. You two go ahead, I’ll be leaving.” Ye Xiaoyu couldn’t stay any longer, because she felt like she could no longer control her emotions.
She had maintained her cheerful girl persona for so long in public, and she couldn’t let it crumble now.
As soon as she left, Xiao Qian’s face turned dark.
Yu Minglang, completely oblivious to the tension between the two won, looked at Xiao Qian and asked, “Do you still want to eat waterlon, Xiao i? Let’s buy it together.”
“Haven’t you bought enough?” She stuffed the bag into his arms and stord out with a dark face.
Yu Minglang had no idea what was going on and quickly paid for the groceries before rushing out to catch up with her.
“Xiao i, what’s wrong?” Yu Minglang grabbed her arm in front of the car.
Xiao Qian clenched her teeth and snarled, “Who would’ve thought that the Xiao Yu you used to play basketball with would be a girl?!”
Who the fuck would think that Xiao Yu was a girl?! She had always thought the person was a guy!
“I didn’t even rember it myself until you ntioned it. She used to be quite a tomboy in high school, with short hair, and I never considered her a woman. I barely recognized her. She really has changed a lot.”
“Heh heh… So you an to say, you skipped classes during your senior year of high school to hang out and play basketball with a girl every day, then bought her waterlons to eat? And last night, you even dread about her?!”
“Well, she was the only one who would play with at the ti, since Hai Zhao and the others had bad grades and couldn’t leave school. I don’t even rember buying her waterlon. But the dream was… ”
He wanted to say that last night’s dream wasn’t just about Ye Xiaoyu, but also about many other high school classmates. Perhaps it had sothing to do with the College Entrance Exam season approaching, which reminded him of high school life.
However, Xiao Qian did not have the patience to listen to his explanation any longer.
Well done, Yu Minglang! You really did a great job!
