Murong Xiao closed his laptop.
"What do you mean."
Zhou Zhou was stunned and hurriedly explained, "Young Master, I was wrong. I shouldn't have asked. I was meddling in other people's business. I promise I will never ask again." After saying that, he quickly took the canna lily away.
A sentence stuck in Murong Xiao's throat, he couldn't swallow it or spit it out, and his face was extremely gloomy.
He took out his phone, tapped the first number pinned to the top of his contacts, and traced the name "Ah Jin" with his fingertip, wanting to tap it, but then hesitated.
After a while, he turned off his phone and went upstairs, somewhat agitated.
Murong Xiao will not lose, whether in business or in relationships. He wants absolute victory and will never be the one to "lose first".
………………
The next morning, Bai Ningshuang, who had a splitting headache, smelled a familiar fragrance.
After rolling around in bed a few times but still unable to ignore the scent, she threw off the covers and got out of bed, where she saw Xiang Jin busy in the kitchen.
On the table were Tangji steamed buns, which she hadn't eaten in a long time, two cups of freshly ground soy milk, a plate of sliced oranges, and a plate of clean, translucent cherries. A pot of fragrant white rice porridge was also simmering.
The despair I felt last night vanished instantly, and life started to look better again.
"Ah Jin." Bai Ningshuang wrapped her arms around her waist from behind and rested her head on her shoulder. "How about you divorce Master Xiao and I marry you, or you can marry me?"
Xiang Jin nudged her: "Alright, alright, go wash up, dinner's almost ready."
Bai Ningshuang pouted, reluctantly letting go of his hand, and turned to go to the bathroom.
After dinner, the two went to the supermarket together.
Bai Ningshuang didn't ask Xiang Jin why he hadn't left, and Xiang Jin didn't mention the events of last night, but it was this tacit understanding and companionship that made people feel so warm.
The two had bought a lot of things, and were preparing to go back and cook a big lunch when they suddenly ran into Gu Feiyang at the supermarket entrance.
He was wearing a gray trench coat, which gave him an unusually serious air about him.
"Sister-in-law Xiang." Gu Feiyang paused for a moment before realizing that he could no longer call her "Little Beauty Xiang," otherwise his brother would definitely kill him and destroy the evidence. So he changed his address at the last minute.
Then, he saw Bai Ningshuang next to Xiang Jin and narrowed his eyes slightly: "This is..."
Bai Ningshuang's face was somewhat pale, and her expression was a little unnatural. She unconsciously tightened her grip on the shopping bag.
She suppressed her nervousness and deliberately changed the subject: "Ah Jin, what sister-in-law? Are you his sister-in-law?"
“He is Murong Xiao’s younger brother, cousin; Fei Yang, this is my best sister, Bai Ning Shuang,” Xiang Jin explained.
"Sister-in-law, I don't like what you're saying. What do you mean by 'brother'? Who else is my brother closest to besides me? I'm extremely indignant about what you're saying." Gu Feiyang snorted twice, reverting to his usual arrogant demeanor.
Xiang Jin laughed: "It's okay to be unconvinced."
“Okay, whatever my sister-in-law says is right, absolutely right.” Gu Feiyang raised an eyebrow.
"Aren't you afraid of tiring yourself out carrying so much stuff? Remember to ask for help next time." Gu Feiyang naturally took the bag from Xiang Jin's hand and walked towards the Rolls-Royce parked by the roadside.
After a while, he came back, walked up to Bai Ningshuang, and stretched out his hand: "Miss Bai, right? Give me the things, and I'll take you back."
"How about we just forget about it? We can take a taxi back ourselves, right, Jin? It's very close anyway." Bai Ningshuang protected the shopping bags like a mother hen protecting her chicks.
She desperately tried to signal to Xiang Jin with her eyes.
Xiang Jin just smiled and patted her shoulder, saying, "Alright, Fei Yang isn't an outsider. Isn't it good to have someone protecting you? Look how tightly your hands are bound. Don't try to be brave now."
Bai Ningshuang didn't know what to say, and Gu Feiyang took the shopping bag from her hand and then turned to walk towards the Rolls-Royce. Bai Ningshuang gritted her teeth and quickly chased after him.
In the car, Gu Feiyang chatted with Xiang Jin while driving.
Bai Ningshuang looked out the window, quietly listening to the conversation between the two. The way her nails dug into her flesh, almost drawing blood, betrayed her nervousness at that moment.
"Hey, why is there Winnie the Pooh in the car? That doesn't suit your young master's image at all," Xiang Jin said half-jokingly.
Gu Feiyang lowered his eyelids and glanced at Bai Ningshuang almost imperceptibly: "It was left behind by a friend, and he hasn't returned it."
"Oh? Girlfriend?" Xiang Jin teased.
"Just an ordinary female friend."
Upon hearing this, Bai Ningshuang's face paled.
Gu Feiyang drove very steadily, which was quite different from his usual flamboyant personality. The car quickly arrived at Bai Ningshuang's residential area. Gu Feiyang got out of the car and casually called the security guard at the gate to come and pick up his things.
Because he received a tip every time he helped someone, the security guard ran very fast, carrying a bag of things as he ran upstairs.
"Shuangshuang, how did the security guard know where you live?" Xiang Jin asked casually.
"Yes... I often ask him for help, so... that's how we got to know each other."
"Really? Last time I came to your place, he didn't even know if you were a homeowner. How did you become so familiar with him so quickly?"
"you do not say."
Bai Ningshuang didn't want to continue the topic, so she pulled Xiang Jin upstairs. Gu Feiyang followed naturally behind. When Xiang Jin asked him what they were doing, he replied matter-of-factly, "Mooching a meal."
Alright, considering his help, Xiang Jin didn't refuse and looked at Bai Ning Shuang.
Bai Ningshuang looked bewildered, her innocent eyes wide open: "Hey, why are you looking at me? Isn't it Ah Jin who's cooking today? Anyway, I can't cook, so looking at me won't help."
Back home, Xiang Jin immediately threw herself into cooking, while Bai Ning Shuang, not wanting to be in the same space as Gu Fei Yang, chose to help in the kitchen. Bored, Gu Fei Yang looked around, seemingly gaining a new appreciation for the small three-bedroom apartment.
Mingming, he stayed here for several nights.
But each time was so rushed and tragic that he never had a chance to appreciate the furnishings inside.
The black, white, and gray color scheme is simple and neat. Everything in the house tells him that the owner is a dashing and heroic person, a completely different person from Bai Ningshuang in his memory.
He was slightly stunned as he looked at Bai Ningshuang, dressed in red, smiling broadly on the badminton court.
Just as I was about to touch that smile at the corner of her lips, my phone suddenly rang.
"Oh, busy man Xiao, what brings you to call me? Aren't you always so busy? Do you still remember me, little Gu?" He still spoke in the tone of a young master, with a hint of pride and a desire to be beaten.
"Where is it?" Murong Xiao asked directly.
"Where is what?"
"Gu Feiyang, try pretending to be stupid again."
Five minutes ago, Gu Feiyang sent a picture of Xiang Jin cooking in the kitchen from behind. He knew that someone would definitely call to ask, and sure enough, the call came.
