Chapter 1558 - Looked Like She Was Scared of Him Misunderstanding (1/2)

“…” Han Zhuoling was really miffed by Shi Xiaoya. “You even know what he likes to eat?”

“We’re friends who are as close as can be after all,” Shi Xiaoya explained.

They were so close that they could be considered the best of friends.

Han Zhuoling gave Shi Xiaoya an ambiguous glance. They were just friends?

He saw that Shi Xiaoya did not have romantic feelings for Qin Zigou. He just did not know whether Qin Zigou was the same or not.

This time, Shi Xiaoya seemed to suddenly become smart. She could even tell what Han Zhuoling was thinking about and quickly explained, “Qin Zigou and I don’t have that kind of relationship. We’ve known each other since we were young, and when we became adults, both of us decided we’re not interested in our family businesses. It just so happened that he liked fashion design while I liked to do makeup, so we discussed and collaborated on opening a work studio. We had been working together for the past few years, so it has been very good. We’re just… er… brothers.”

Shi Xiaoya had wanted to say that they were sisters, but she also felt that in front of Han Zhuoling, she should save some face for Qin Zigou.

Qin Zigou was not gay anyway. He indeed liked women.

Hence, she could only make a little sacrifice on her end.

“Anyway, if we really had even an inkling of affection for each other, we wouldn’t have waited until now,” Shi Xiaoya mumbled. How many years had it been already?

She and Qin Zigou really had no chemical reaction between them at all.

Qin Zigou treated her like a younger sister while she treated Qin Zigou like her biological brother.

Han Zhuoling’s mood instantly got better. Even the darkness on his face disappeared. He quickly hid his emotions and returned to his cold and aloof expression. “I didn’t even say anything, why are you explaining so much?”

She looked like she was so scared and so nervous that he would misunderstand.

Shi Xiaoya: “…”

Wasn’t it because it looked like he misunderstood?

But it was true. What kind of relationship did the two of them have?

If he misunderstood, so be it. Why did she bother explaining?

If Han Zhuoling were not around, Shi Xiaoya would have just smacked her mouth.
