Chapter 879 I Have a Solution
Murong was thinking when Qiao Yunxi sent a message.
"Shall we have dinner here today? Do you want me to pick you up?"
There was a location after the message. Murong clicked it and saw that it was the restaurant she had wanted to go to before but had never been able to.
Murong couldn't help but curl her fingers. Qiao Yunxi was so good to her, so good that she wanted to give up her previous idea and wait for Qiao Yunxi to say it himself.
[No need to pick up the car, I'll drive there myself.]
In front of the Chinese garden-style hotel, Murong had just gotten out of the car when Qiao Yunxi came over and waved at her.
He is tall and has long legs, a model figure, and simple clothes look particularly elegant when matched with him. There is a smile on his charming face, as if seeing Murong is a very happy thing.
"Now that you're here, I've reserved a seat in advance. Let's go in."
Murong just couldn't take a step forward.
"Murong?" Qiao Yunxi's eyes were filled with questions. "What's wrong with you?"
Murong said, "Brother Qiao, you've been compensating me for more than half a month... I think that's enough."
Qiao Yunxi couldn't maintain the smile on his face any longer. "Why are you talking about this for no reason?"
"I think it's better to say it now."
Qiao Yunxi's heart was in his throat. He felt that his relationship with Murong had eased, and Murong was about to distance himself from them.
Qiao Yunxi asked, "Did I do something wrong to upset you? Tell me, and I will seriously change!"
"You're not wrong."
Murong glanced at the restaurant that hadn't entered yet and said, "You've done a great job, so I'll stop here. Third Brother Qiao, you don't have to compensate me in the future."
Qiao Yunxi frowned. How could this be enough? He liked Murong and wanted more than just compensation.
Qiao Yunxi looked at Murong, who looked determined, and said abruptly, "Murong, do you know what I saw in your eyes when you said those words just now?"
Murong didn't know, she looked straight at Qiao Yunxi.
"Your eyes tell me that you need me, and I can't just ignore you."
"Anyway, everything won't end until I feel I've made enough compensation!"
There was no way to eat this meal today. Qiao Yunxi didn't want to hear Murong's next hurtful words, so he said the last sentence and hurried away.
Standing there, Murong stared at Qiao Yunxi's back, shocked to the core by his words.
Was there really such emotion in her eyes?
A cool breeze blew, and Murong felt a cold feeling on his face. A tissue was handed to him from the side.
"Miss, do you want to wipe your tears?"
Murong turned her head in surprise, and a slender figure appeared in front of her with his back to the sun. The other person was still handing her a tissue. His handsome face was full of tenderness, and his voice was very pleasant.
"Thanks."
Murong took the tissue, which was soft and had a delicate fragrance. The man said familiarly, "I just saw the young lady with a handsome guy. Um...did he bully you?"
Murong was very repulsed by strange men, but she didn't feel like staying away from the man in front of her. She had never told anyone about her relationship with Qiao Yunxi, and she felt very uncomfortable keeping it in her heart. Instead, this stranger made Murong want to talk.
She shook her head. "He didn't bully me."
"Why are you crying if you weren't bullied?" The man gestured for Murong to sit down and said, "Don't be afraid. Maybe if you tell me, I can help you."
Murong lowered her eyes and picked out the things between her and Qiao Yunxi. The man concluded: "So you were together by accident, and he wanted to pursue you, but you disagreed?"
It’s not really a pursuit, Murong thought silently.
The man then asked, "Is it because of his bad character? Or is there something wrong with him?"
Murong pursed his lips, "He's fine, it's my problem."
The people around him were silent for a few seconds. Murong looked at him and happened to meet his pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes. Murong's heart skipped a beat and he explained, "I have reasons why I can't be with him."
"I understand." The man didn't ask Murong's reason, but said, "I have a way to make him give up and stop bothering you. Do you want to hear it?"
"I think so." Murong said firmly.
The man said, "You can find someone to pretend to be your boyfriend. If he sees it, he will definitely give up!"
This method... Murong's hand grabbed unconsciously, but he didn't respond immediately.
"What's wrong? You think it's bad?" the man asked doubtfully. "A young lady I know has used this and it works very well."
"Thanks for your advice, but I don't really like interacting with other men. This method doesn't suit me."
After Murong finished speaking, he stood up and looked at the other person. "Thank you for today, sir. I feel much better. If you have time, can I buy you a cup of coffee?"
Murong made an invitation and was about to end the topic, but she saw that the man was staring at her with burning eyes.
