Chapter 145 - Love Affairs II (1/2)
Xian Zihao's mouth twitched. Looking at Jiang Ruolan's expression, she did not agree with his way of revealing the truth.
Jiang Ruolan was about to speak when a melodious ringtone suddenly rang.
It was Xian Zihao's cell phone.
Jiang Ruolan quietly sighed in relief and sat back down. As she continued to rub the back of her head, she glanced at Xian Zihao at an angle that Qin Gengxin couldn't see.
Sure enough, his expression didn't look too good.
She was doing this for everyone's benefit. Escaping was not a solution. She understood that, but she really didn't want anything to happen. It wasn't like she hadn't seen Qin Gengxin's violent temper before.
”I'll take a call.” Xian Zihao glanced at his cell phone, got up, and left. Before he left, he swept a glance at Jiang Ruolan with a profound expression, which caused her to lower her eyes and avoid his gaze quickly.
Qin Gengxin did not say anything. He waited until Xian Zihao walked out of the room before turning his head to look at Jiang Ruolan, who was still rubbing the back of her head.
Jiang Ruolan knew that Qin Gengxin must have sensed something amiss, so she finally stopped rubbing her head.
She understood that her unusual behavior was unjustifiable. Not to mention a cunning person like Qin Gengxin, even a fool sitting here could tell that something was wrong with her behavior.
”I need to go to the bathroom.” She didn't want to be too obvious, but sitting here was actually the best way. Once she leaves, Qin Gengxin would probably speculate even more, but if she didn't go find Xian Zihao quickly, no matter how hard she tried, she wouldn't be able to stop him from telling the truth.
Seeing her get up to open the door, Qin Gengxin pursed his lips and looked at her, ”Jiang Ruolan, even if you don't want to accompany me to a proper meal, you shouldn't have caused so much trouble for me.”
She froze and looked back at him.
He seems to be … He didn't think of her and Xian Zihao had a thing.
That's right, the distance between Xian Zihao and her was too far. It was impossible for anyone to connect the two of them together so easily.
Qin Gengxin looked at her coldly. ”From the time you were four years old when you were in the Jiang Family until you were seventeen years old, we had at least thirteen years of love. Do you need to be so heartless? Do you really think that my patience is limitless? Give me the exact word, do you have a man? Otherwise, why the f*ck would you be so adamant about not taking advantage of the situation?”
The corner of Jiang Ruolan's mouth twitched. ”If I told you that I really have a boyfriend, would you stop?”
”Really?” Qin Gengxin frowned and looked at her coldly.
She helplessly said, ”I do.”
”Who?”
”...”
”You don't know him!”
”Say his name!”
”I already said that you don't know him! What's the use of saying his name!”
”Cut the crap, tell me that kid's name!”
”Why do you need to know his name?”
”Why do you care? Say his name!”
Jiang Ruolan panicked. Where could she find a man's name? She hastily said, ”I need to go to the washroom!”
Before Qin Gengxin could finish his sentence, she had already dragged open the door of the room and ran away like a wisp of smoke.
Seeing that she was running away so fast, Qin Gengxin's face darkened. He raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows. ”What a heartless woman!”
Jiang Ruolan circled around the hall, but she didn't see Xian Zihao.
She could only go to the restroom first, but her line of sight bumped into the tall and straight figure when she walked out from the corridor.
”Let Assistant Bai pass the message. There is a need to prioritize matters. Let him settle this first.”
”Okay, let them go.”
”Pay attention to their movements and inform Assistant Bai at any time.”
