Chapter 74 She's pretty good in bed
Qiao Xing was startled. Why was he calling at this time?
Didn't she text him saying she had something to do and couldn't pick him up?
The phone ringing abruptly in the quiet private room made Qiao Xing's heart race with anxiety.
She glanced at Jiang Wang, wondering if it was inappropriate to answer the phone at this time.
Jiang Wang raised his chin. "Go ahead and answer it. Why are you looking at me?"
Whether it was a misperception or not, Qiao Xing seemed to see a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Qiao Xing looked strange, but Qin Ce's call was like a death knell, and she had no choice but to answer it.
"Hello."
"Where are you?"
Although his tone was no different from usual, Qiao Xing could tell that his voice sounded somewhat cold today.
“I…” Qiao Xing glanced at Jiang Wang again, who was also staring at her expectantly.
Qiao Xing took a deep breath and said, "I'm at a karaoke bar."
Which karaoke bar?
"Time".
As soon as Qiao Xing finished speaking, he hung up the phone. The speed at which he hung up made Qiao Xing feel somewhat uneasy.
Jiang Wang asked, "How is it? Has Qin Ce arrived?"
"What?" Qiao Xing stared blankly at Jiang Wang. How did he know Qin Ce would come?
Jiang Wang chuckled and said, "It's nothing, I was just asking."
Qiao Xing sighed with melancholy. Things were going more smoothly than she had imagined, and she didn't know what she was worried about.
Thinking of Bai Yi, she said, "Young Master Jiang, there's something else I need to say."
Jiang Wang leaned back, crossed his legs, and struck an arrogant and domineering pose. "What is it?"
"It's about Xiaobai."
"Little White? Which Little White?"
Looking at his nonchalant appearance, Qiao Xing wondered if he had even forgotten his girlfriend's name.
She reminded him, "It's Bai Yi; she's my colleague."
"Bai Yi?" Jiang Wang muttered the two words, as if he had just remembered. "Oh, it's her. What's wrong?"
"She said you're ignoring her, so she asked me to ask Young Master Jiang if you like her."
Qiao Xing felt that she had asked a pointless question. Jiang Wang didn't even remember the person's name, so how could he possibly like her genuinely?
Jiang Wang picked up a beer bottle from the table, took a sip, and said, "I like plenty of people, who does she think she is?"
Qiao Xing looked at him with a complicated expression, suddenly unsure of what to say.
Jiang Wang said, "Don't look at me like that. She was the one who shamelessly came to me. I thought she was pretty, so I slept with her. It's not like I didn't give her money. Don't make it sound like I'm a heartless man."
"She only approached me for money, didn't she?"
Qiao Xing listened quietly without offering any comment.
She didn't understand Bai Yi, nor did she know her intentions in approaching Jiang Wang; she was merely a messenger.
"So, are you still willing to reconcile with her?"
"What do you mean by making up? If she wants to keep sleeping with me, then let her. Besides, she's pretty good in bed."
Qiao Xing felt like she was going crazy, discussing such explicit topics with Jiang Wang. She guessed that this kind of person probably didn't even know what it felt like to like someone.
He's good-looking and rich; with a wave of his hand, countless women would flock to him, and he'd never lack for love.
Qiao Xing changed the subject and asked, "Does Young Master Jiang still want to sing?"
"What's the point of us just singing if we don't sing?"
He enjoys watching beautiful women sing, but this lousy place doesn't have any. If Yang Han hadn't invited him, and if he hadn't wanted to curry favor with Qin Ce, he wouldn't have come even if begged.
"..."
He chose the location and suggested the singing, but now he says it's boring. Could he be playing her for a fool?
But looking at Jiang Wang's expression, she could see that he was completely uninterested. He seemed to be almost asleep, let alone not interested in singing.
As Qiao Xing was thinking, the door to the private room suddenly opened.
Qiao Xing and Jiang Wang turned their heads at the same time, and Qin Ce's tall figure appeared at the door. His face was as cold as frost, as if the temperature in the private room had dropped a few degrees.
Seeing that Qiao Xing and Jiang Wang were sitting 800 meters away, his expression relaxed slightly.
Jiang Wang slapped his thigh, as if he had seen a savior, "Oh my god... you've finally come."
Qiao Xing's eyelids twitched. Jiang Wang's reaction seemed a bit off.
"Did you enjoy singing?" Qin Ce glanced at Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang's neck stiffened. Even if he was stupid, he could hear the threat in Qin Ce's words. He chuckled dryly, "It's alright. I didn't sing. She sang by herself."
However, after saying this, Qin Ce's face darkened even more.
Jiang Wang quickly explained, "Alright, since your wife sings so well, let's call it even. I'll be going now."
After saying that, he stood up, and feeling somewhat guilty, he stepped past Qin Ce and slunk away.
Qiao Xing opened her mouth, she had doubts in her heart, but she didn't know how to express them.
She stood up and came to Qin Ce. "Why are you here?"
"That's what I should be asking you. What are you doing here?"
Jiang Wang just messaged him, saying that Qiao Xing wanted to apologize to him and also wanted to ask him to sing karaoke.
Upon seeing this message, Qin Ce felt as if he had been hit on the head with a stick. The first thing that came to his mind was the things he had said last night.
And the misunderstanding I had about her last night.
She wasn't scared out of her wits; she was secretly planning to apologize to Jiang Wang and even drink and sing with him.
If he hadn't gone to see Jiang Wang beforehand last night, and Jiang Wang hadn't known his identity, would things have turned out differently today?
Thinking of this, Qin Ce suddenly felt very angry. This stupid woman, doesn't she know how to discuss things with me?
Qiao Xing seemed oblivious to Qin Ce's change in mindset. "I just wanted to resolve this matter, because I was afraid he would cause you trouble later. But don't worry, I don't think Jiang Wang is the kind of person who holds grudges. He probably won't cause you any more trouble."
Qin Ce's dark pupils stared intently at her, the screen flickering, the light on her face shifting between light and shadow.
She looked at him sincerely, her eyes filled with no doubt, only openness.
For no apparent reason, Qin Ce felt a lump in his throat.
"Why?" he suddenly asked.
"Huh?" Qiao Xing didn't understand what he meant.
Qin Ce repeated with a complicated expression, "Why did you help me secretly?"
Qiao Xing scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and said, "I'm just... afraid you'll feel embarrassed. I'm thick-skinned, apologizing won't hurt me. I'm afraid you won't let me come if you find out."
"Have you ever thought about what you would do if he wasn't so easy to talk to and did something outrageous to you?"
Qiao Xing said, "No, I've set up an emergency number. If he does anything to me, I'll fight him to the death."
Qin Ce laughed upon hearing this, a laugh born of anger. "You want to fight him to the death? Are you sure you won't be the only one who suffers? What will you do if things get even worse?"
Qiao Xing was stunned, and his face turned a little pale.
She understood Qin Ce's words. If Jiang Wang did something, even if she called the police, it would be useless and would only anger Jiang Wang, making the situation more serious.
"I...I didn't think that much about it, I'm sorry." Qiao Xing lowered her head; she had indeed acted impulsively.
Qin Ce's words last night had truly frightened her. She was afraid that if Qin Ce were to lose an arm or a leg, or even die, she would be truly guilty and unable to escape the consequences.
Qin Ce opened his mouth, but then fell silent.
He suddenly realized that things seemed to be developing in a direction he couldn't control.
