Xie Wei, by chance, learned from a system that his world had a 'Child of Destiny', and that he, Xie Wei, was like a minor supporting character with little screen time in a novel within this...
"No, it's not true." Xie Wei said firmly, probably because the two of them had been walking too close and had been misunderstood by others.
"Hmph, don't let him take advantage of you and leave you with nowhere to cry," Bai Shiying said earnestly.
"Don't worry, Xiao Qingying and I have a purely platonic friendship," Xie Wei patted her back, gesturing for her to get down.
Bai Shiying pouted and reluctantly got off him.
Honestly, with such a beauty in his arms, it's a good thing he has good self-control; otherwise, he could be preparing for graduate school entrance exams.
"Anyway, stay away from her. Just because you're not interested in her doesn't mean she's not interested in you," Bai Shiying said slowly, straightening his clothes.
"Okay, I'm leaving." He had accomplished his purpose for coming, and their current relationship was not enough for him to stay at her house for too long.
"You said yourself that you would appear in front of me properly before I catch you," Bai Shiying said, tugging at Xie Wei's sleeve, and the scene suddenly became warm and cozy.
Xie Wei nodded, then looked at the uneasy expression on Bai Shiying's face, lifted her head, and kissed the corner of her mouth.
"I'll give you the other half when I get back," he said, leaving with a nonchalant air as he walked away.
Coming to her senses, Bai Shiying sat on the sofa, staring at the "Qingxin" mark on her chest, unable to calm down for a long time.
She felt like she had struck gold.
Back home, Xie Wei explained the trip to Wandu to the women.
But the women knew that Xie Wei must have something important to do when he went out, and it would be inconvenient for too many people to go together. The sensible ones didn't offer to go with him; it was more important to be his strong support.
Xie Wei could see what they were thinking. Their eyes were about to overflow with reluctance, but he still pretended to be relaxed and pulled them all into his arms.
Xie Wei was very lucky to have met them and to have kept them by his side.
(Bai, what's the difference between this and actually talking about it!? The next chapter will begin the Anhui chapter, it won't be very long.)
