233 Why Did You Come Out? (1/2)

She glanced at the phone—it was the one with his private line.

Without a second thought, she yelled at the bathroom. ”Yan Rusheng, your phone is ringing!”

”Answer it.”

Yan Rusheng promptly told Xuxu to pick up the call without even verifying the caller's identity.

Xuxu replied back with a ”Yes” and walked over to the sofa. Ming Ansheng was on the other line.

The instant she saw the familiar name, she picked up the phone without any hesitation. She said naturally, ”Young Master Ming.”

There was a dead silence for a few seconds before Ming Ansheng replied, ”Xuxu?”

Xuxu interpreted it as him asking for Yan Rusheng's whereabouts. She said, ”Yan Rusheng is in the shower.”

”Oh, seems like you're... co-existing quite well with Third Yan.”

Ming Ansheng sounded both curious and doubtful.

Xuxu lightly brushed off his question. ”Young Master Ming, thank you for showing concern for your old classmate despite your hectic schedule.”

She felt that Ming Ansheng would definitely be a little judgmental about her marriage with Yan Rusheng.

After all, his grandfather had put in so much effort to link their two families together through marriage. Now everything had gone down the drain. Not to mention how Wen Xinyi was badly humiliated at Flourish & Prosper that time.

He was her cousin, and he would definitely feel protective of her.

”C'mon, Wen Xuxu. We were ex-classmates, after all. Do you need to be so distant with us?”

Ming Ansheng lamented bitterly.

Even though he'd changed his tone, Xuxu could still tell that he was deliberately trying to conceal the doubt in his voice.

She wasn't sure what he was trying to get out of her, and just assumed that he was still upset over her marriage with Yan Rusheng.
