Chapter 1286 - Her Eyes Hurt (1/2)

Qiao Yanze stood in front of the window, a cigarette between his fingers as he narrowed his pretty eyes and exhaled a mouthful of smoke.

Not too long later, he saw a slender figure leaving the villa.

Aunt Li was following behind Cen Xi, as she turned back to wave at the older lady. After saying something that he didn’t know, Aunt Li seemed to pull her back, unwilling for her to leave. However, the girl still left determinedly.

It was then that Qiao Yanze suddenly realized that this girl was slightly different from others.

She was young, but she had her own thoughts and ideas and never let others play with her.

However…

Could she be playing push and pull with him? After all, she was Xiao Ying’s younger sister, she must know how to catch a man’s heart!

She knew that he was interested in her right now. Since he didn’t accept the Ji family’s wedding matters, he would still dote on her the same as long as she stayed.

However, her leaving so determinedly, he couldn’t help but suspect her.

Qiao Yanze hummed coldly. He wanted to see how long she can hold on if he didn’t look for her!

…

Cen Xi returned to her apartment, feeling extremely exhausted. Although she had moved into Qiao Yanze’s villa for a few days, she had been mentally tense in those few days.

She knew that this day would come one day and it was better early than late. At least, it wasn’t at the stage where she would be in terrible pain from leaving him.

After she entered the apartment and saw a busy figure in the kitchen, Cen Xi was slightly shocked. “Mengmeng, you’re back!”

Gu Meng was currently cooking some noodles and a smile appeared on her face when she saw Cen Xi. “Yes, I’m cooking something. Xiao Xi, do you want some?”

“I ate already, so no, but thanks.”

After making her bowl of noodles, Gu Meng brought it with her and sat beside Cen Xi. Cen Xi had changed into home clothes and had tied her long hair into a bun, exposing her fair and pretty face. She was currently looking at a translation book.

“Xiao Xi, why did you move out of Young Master Qiao’s villa?” Gu Meng stared at Cen Xi’s pretty side profile. “Did you fight with him?”

Cen Xi looked up and hummed softly. “It’s over.”

Actually, she should have struggled all the way that night and not let him get his way. However, she couldn’t resist his kiss and his scent. That was why she fell in, head first.

She gave herself too quickly and he got her too easily. A relations.h.i.+p that was only physical and not emotional was doomed to be short and transient.

It was fortunate that she saw through it all!

Staring at Cen Xi’s calm expression, Gu Meng put down her bowl of noodles and grabbed Cen Xi’s hand. “Xiao Xi, if you’re sad, just cry!”

Gu Meng could tell that Cen Xi really liked Young Master Qiao. If she didn’t like him, why would she move into his villa and cohabit with him?

Although it was short, she must have given her feelings as well.

Cen Xi shook her head with a bitter smile. “There’s nothing to be sad about. I was the one who wanted to come back!” Cen Xi didn’t want to talk about Qiao Yanze and her anymore, so she glanced at Gu Meng. “What about you? How has it been with His Highness?”

At the mention of Ye Qing, Gu Meng’s large eyes darkened a little. She bit her lips and said sadly, “He’s going for an overseas visit in a few days and it may take up to a few weeks. So, since that’s happening, he has some time over the next two days and he’s spending it with his girlfriend.

“His personal dates don’t require too many bodyguards to be with him. I’m on leave today and will be on duty tomorrow.”

Cen Xi furrowed her eyebrows. “What does that mean? If he’s going on a date with that woman tomorrow, wouldn’t you have to see them together tomorrow?”

Gu Meng looked down, a delayed pain and discomfort throbbing in her chest. “Probably!”

“Silly Mengmeng, are you still going to continue?”
