Chapter 52 Caught Up
The woman's soft and boneless little hand rested on Xie Yanchuan's wrist without any warning.
The cool touch made him freeze.
Coincidentally, another wave of people came up, shortening the distance between the two even further.
"Ningning..."
Xie Yanchuan's eyes darkened unconsciously, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and his voice became deep.
It seemed as if something was about to come out at this moment, but the next second it was abruptly interrupted by a sharp scream.
"elder brother!!"
Across the entire musical fountain, Fang Qiu was standing at the other end of the square, waving happily at the two of them.
"And Senior Jiang, what a coincidence, I actually met you here!"
"Yeah, what a coincidence."
Jiang Wanning also greeted Fang Qiu with a smile, and at the same time let go of Xie Yanchuan's hand.
Xie Yanchuan: “…”
The man first lowered his eyes to look at his empty wrist, then raised his eyes again to look at Fang Qiu opposite him.
Although he didn't say anything, Fang Qiu still felt an inexplicable chill.
Fang Qiu:?
His cousin is acting weird today and has been in a bad mood all day.
Who on earth is so blind to offend this evil spirit again?
Fang Qiu looked around and finally decided to quietly retreat into the corner.
Ying, if you can't afford to offend someone, can't you just hide away?
While they were talking, my aunt had finished fighting and walked out of the clothing store.
When the lady saw Jiang Wanning, it was as if she had seen her own daughter. Her eyes lit up instantly: "Wanning, I haven't seen you for a long time."
"How was it? How was your last chat with my boy Fang Qiu?"
"I……!"
Fang Qiu, who had been hiding in the corner, was suddenly called out. He felt like he had seen a savior. He was about to stick his head out, but he met Xie Yanchuan's cold gaze.
The words that were on the tip of Fang Qiu's tongue were stuck in the middle.
It was not until this moment that he finally realized that the source of his cousin's unhappiness today seemed to be him.
Fang Qiu was puzzled.
Fang Qiu was in tears and said that he did not cause any trouble at all.
On the other side, Jiang Wanning also fell into hesitation after hearing the woman's words.
After all, she seemed to have no contact with Fang Qiu since they parted at the hotel that day.
But she didn't want to speak directly and spoil the other person's mood. When she was considering how to start, Xie Yanchuan beside her helped her out.
"Aunt, please don't scare the girl."
It can be said that the woman knew her cousin very well.
At such a young age, he relied on his own abilities to monopolize most of the decisions in the Xie family and was notoriously averse to women.
There are even rumors that all the women who wanted to get into his bed had their legs broken by him without exception, and were thrown out of the door onto the street for everyone to see.
Rumors like this spread more and more in their circle. Maybe they were half true and half false, but no woman dared to get close to him again.
Not only was Jiang Wanning able to get so close to him, but it was also the first time the woman saw Xie Yanchuan actually take the initiative to speak for a woman.
“Oh~”
She was stunned for a moment, then she covered her lips and chuckled.
"Yan Chuan is right. Auntie, I was a little abrupt. Wan Ning, please don't take it to heart."
"No, auntie." The awkward atmosphere was resolved and Jiang Wanning also started laughing.
Seeing this, the aunt looked between the two of them before pulling her son, who was obviously still distracted by the situation, to a corner.
Seeing that the two people opposite her didn't notice anything unusual, she whispered, "Fang Qiu, what's going on with your cousin and Wan Ning?"
She asked this, her eyes full of the excitement of witnessing gossip.
"Hey son, did I make the wrong connection earlier, acting on my own?"
"ah?"
Fang Qiu was stunned, obviously not understanding the implication of his mother's words: "Mom, what are you talking about?"
aunt:"……"
The woman was silent and speechless as she looked at her son, who was already more than half a shoulder taller than her.
Finally, he curled his lips in dissatisfaction: "Forget it, why should I say so much to a stupid boy like you?"
After she finished speaking, she left Fang Qiu behind and turned to call her best friend Song Yao.
"Yaoyao, let me tell you, I just saw..."
Fang Qiu: "Mom..."
But what Fang Qiu responded to was the woman's back without even turning her head.
Fang Qiu seemed to be disliked again, and the sky had completely fallen on him.
What's going on?
He seems to have been abandoned by this world. What should he do? Waiting online, very urgent!
…
The few of them talked and laughed along the way, and it was almost time to go back.
My aunt suddenly pushed Xie Yanchuan aside and said, "Hey, Wan Ning, I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have forgotten something at the mall."
"It just so happens that we're going back, and it's not on the way to Yanchuan's hotel, so why don't you give him a ride?"
After she finished speaking, she urgently interrupted Fang Qiu, who was about to explain, with her eyes.
Xie Yanchuan, who was standing by, also looked at Jiang Wanning and asked hesitantly, "Will this cause some trouble?"
"It's okay, no trouble."
Jiang Wanning didn't think too much about it and agreed: "I just happened to be coming back from the hotel, so it's a little closer."
"Yanchuan, please don't be polite to me. We are all friends, so it's only natural for me to help you."
"Um."
Xie Yanchuan's eyes, which were originally somewhat happy, obviously drooped when he heard Jiang Wanning say the word "friend". The light in his eyes flickered slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Aunt: "Okay, then I'll leave Yanchuan to you. Fang Qiu, quickly follow me back to the mall to look for something."
After she finished speaking, she was afraid that Fang Qiu was going to do something bad, so she quickly pulled everyone away from the scene.
Afterwards, Jiang Wanning took Xie Yanchuan to where she had parked her car before. When she was about to drive away, she touched her pocket and her face suddenly froze.
"What's wrong?"
“Which one…”
Jiang Wanning was a little embarrassed: "I think I forgot my bag in the mall just now."
Unlike her aunt's deliberate act, Jiang Wanning really forgot.
"But luckily it's not far away. Xie Yanchuan, wait here for me for a moment. I'll go get it and be back soon."
After she finished speaking, she ran out without waiting for Xie Yanchuan to react.
It was almost late at night, and the crowd in the music square had become scattered after the New Year's Eve party.
Jiang Wanning took a quick look and quickly found the handbag that she had accidentally forgotten on the bench next to the fountain.
She was delighted and hurried forward to take it back, but just as her hand was about to touch the bag.
Surprisingly, a pair of big hands with distinct joints picked up the bag before her.
"Late lemon."
"...How have you been lately?"
Shi Wang's familiar figure suddenly appeared in Jiang Wanning's sight, causing her to freeze in place.
