Chapter 9：Youre Very Mysterious (1/2)
Lian Miaoyi's beautiful brows immediately knotted into a frown. She looked towards Dai Yingying, her calm gaze tinged with some questioning.
Dai Yingying was immediately flustered. She knew full well of Lin Miaoyin's character. While she may look gentle and accomodating on the surface, maintaining a courteous smile even towards beggars by the street, she was a strong-minded person through and through.
All these years that she helped Luo Kun chase away Lin Miaoyi's suitors, Dai Yingying had never let Lin Miaoyi sense anything amiss. She took great care of hiding her tracks.
However, because of Lu Xuan, what she did was now entirely exposed in front of Lin Miaoyi.
”Enough with your accusations! We've got nothing to do with each other!” Dai Yingying would, of course, deny everything. However, her slightly flustered expression did not escape Lin Miaoyi's eyes.
The questioning look in her attractive eyes thickened.
Dai Yingying glared fiercely at Lu Xuan, attempting to threaten him into silence with her glare.
However, how would it be possible for Lu Xuan to comply? He snickered, ”The man behind you is Luo Kun, no? How much did he pay for you to do his bidding?”
Dai Yingying completely panicked when Lu Xuan said Luo Kun's name. Lin Miaoyi, who stood at the side, made a knowing look as well. She knew Luo Kun.
Judging from their looks, Lin Miaoyi quickly figured what happened. She would have been too silly if she could not put two and two together.
A slight sadness could be seen on her face, though it quickly disappeared. She hadn't had many friends ever since she was a child, and Dai Yingying was one of the few she had. Although Dai Yingying's friendship was fused with some pandering, she never minded. She even helped Dai Yingying's family rise by giving them help and pieces of advice.
If it were any other thing, she would have turned a blind eye. However, Dai Yingying had become a spy sent by someone else to watch her every move.
”Miaoyi, you must believe me. That was not true! He's insulting me!” Dai Yingying quickly pleaded. She was painfully clear about just how powerful the faction behind Lin Miaoyi was. Even if her family was worth billions, Lin Miaoyi could squash them like a bug if they angered her.
Lin Miaoyi regained her composure and mildly stated, ”You should leave. Considering our past together, I would rest this case. But go back to Luo Kun and tell him that if he dares interfere with my matters again, I will make him pay!”
Dai Yingying quickly got up. It was as if Lin Miaoyi had just spared her from an unpardonable sin. With her deep understanding of Lin Miaoyi, she knew that no one could ever change Lin Miaoyi's mind once she made a decision. She was already very fortunate that Lin Miaoyi decided not to pursue this case further.
However, it all happened because of that darned man Lu Xuan.
She shot death glares at Lu Xuan, almost wanting to devour him alive.
”Right, tell Luo Kun one more thing. If I ever find out that he sent men to hassle anyone else again, I will not let him off the hook!” Lin Miaoyi added, seemingly thought of something.
Dai Yingying threw daggers at Lu Xuan with her hateful gaze, because she understood that what Lin Miaoyi said would be a protective talisman for Lu Xuan. No one would dare touch Lu Xuan for the time being, at least.
After Dai Yingying left, Lin Miaoyi finally turned to Lu Xuan, who was calm every since the beginning. Some interest flashed past her eyes. If she had to base an impression solely on her mother's documents, Lu Xuan should be just an average guy.
She only agreed to the blind date as her mother had given in to an old friend. Be it her or her mother, both of them never thought that anything would come out of this blind date.
Even Lin Miaoyi took it as an excuse to take a breather. Out of good familial manners and upbringing, she wouldn't be so impolite as to stand the other party up.
However, she never thought that Lu Xuan, who should have been very average, turned out to be not so average after all.
