Chapter 510 - Meeting Zhier (III) (1/2)
….
Caleb gasped, remembering that small grudge.
”Oh, that 'Zhi'er'... So you, you are the one whom he always talked to on the phone! I remember it clearly. The youngest never gave me face, he always devoted his breaks on you!”
Xiong Zhi: ”....”
Why did she feel that this man was jealous? Was it just her?
Also... Linfeng was really sweet.
Xiong Zhi thought of rewarding a kiss to Linfeng later.
William chuckled. ”Don't get jealous.” He looked at Xiong Zhi and explained. ”Don't mind him, he doesn't mean bad. Caleb is just really sensitive towards relationsh.i.p.s. All of us are his 'boyfriends' and best friends. If his place gets taken away by someone, he'll grumble about. Anyway, it's just a small peculiarity.”
Xiong Zhi raised a brow, ”Sensitive? You make it sound like he's a child of a broken family and none of his parents want him…”
Surprise flickered in Caleb's grey eyes. William and Eugine also looked at Xiong Zhi as if surprised and admiring at the same time.
Xiong Zhi's voice trailed off and she shut her mouth. She was just casually making a sarcastic remark, yet it turned out be true. It was mindless of her.
”I'm sorry for my rudeness.” There was no hint of empathy at all in her voice, as if she was just excusing her impolite behavior.
Eugene stared at Xiong Zhi.
”Caleb's big mouth got us all curious and tried to get your identity out many times from Linfeng. But after several inquiries, honestly, you look nothing like the one we saw in pictures. We even watched you and Linfeng talk once in a video call—”
William and Caleb glared at Eugene.
Xiong Zhi was stunned. ”Which video call?”
Eugine avoided eyes and sweated.
”Nothing, haha. Have you tried the fresh salmon in balsamic vinegar served earlier? It's incredible.”Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'zhi'er'-(iii)_52137742766757150 for visiting.
Xiong Zhi's eyes narrowed.
”Which video call?”
Her tone was sharp and cold.
William, Caleb, and Eugene swallowed.
The woman in front of them collided with the memory of the threatening eyes and cold aura from a young but early matured man. She looked very much like the youngest at that time.
Eugene, the kindest among them who could not bear to lie to one of his closest friend's girlfriend, spilled the beans.
”It's a year ago. After Caleb told us about this 'Zhi'er', we all got curious and checked out all the girls near him. But we could not find someone who could be Zhi'er.”
Xiong Zhi crossed her arms elegantly, her face indifferent.
”I am the only woman near him…” Because she would not allow anyone else to come near her boyfriend. ”…So there isn't much to look into, just me. Among the ladies around her, I'm the only one who got 'Zhi' in my name. How come you did not even know that?”
Xiong Zhi already threw her manners to the window when speaking to these gentlemen.
For her, these attractive gentlemen in the eyes of others turned into lonely kids in her eyes.
”Well, we did not think of you, because you're technically his master. No offense meant but, people don't really think that it's possible for a master and butler to become a couple with equally passionate feelings. It's almost as bizarre as saying that a Wall Street billionaire CEO is a house maid's boyfriend. Because Linfeng is usually very conservative and stubborn about many things, I never thought he would be like that, to be honest.”
Xiong Zhi's mouth opened, but in the end, she fell silent.
That's right.
Even she had never thought of it too in her previous life.
