The air stood still, and the atmosphere froze.
"Su Ni, it really is you!" The girl walked out from behind the screen and looked very surprised when she saw Yun Su Ni.
"Su Ni..." Lu Qi followed her out and called out when he saw Yun Su Ni. He asked hesitantly, "What are you doing here?"
Yun Suni didn't answer him, but introduced Cheng Qicai, "This is Su Qianwei, Lu Qi's friend."
"Hello! I'm Cheng Qicai." Cheng Qicai introduced herself to Su Qianwei with a formulaic smile and indifference.
It really is the girl that Lu Qi's parents are satisfied with. When she saw her just now, she didn't have time to ask Lu Qi.
However, now that this situation has been exposed, Cheng Qicai naturally doesn't give her a friendly look.
"Hello, I just heard you call her Sister Su Ni. You must be her sister, right?" Su Qianwei asked gently, ignoring her attitude.
Cheng Qicai ignored her and simply replied, "Hmm."
Su Qianwei turned to Lu Qi gently and said, "Lu Qi, I've looked at them all. Let's go with the desktop backgrounds we've chosen."
Lu Qi nodded, "Okay."
Su Qianwei seemed to remember something and asked the shop assistant next to her, "What color are your ring boxes?"
"Black," the shop assistant replied.
"Ah..." She thought for a moment and asked the shop assistant, "Could you change it to white? I'd like to use the white box to store the ring we just looked at."
The shop assistant nodded and said respectfully, "Yes, Miss Su."
After listening to her words, Cheng Qicai felt that compared to Su Qianwei, who was cunning and had hidden meanings in her words, Qin Biyu was much better because she was straightforward and had a clear sense of right and wrong.
However, she truly deserves to be the final major obstacle; her character is designed to be stronger than the other cannon fodder female supporting characters.
Not a single sentence in the entire piece is superfluous. With just a few simple sentences, she subtly brings her and Lu Qi closer together. To an unsuspecting person, she might actually be Lu Qi's real girlfriend.
Cheng Qicai glanced at Yun Suni's expression; it was very stable and unaffected by Su Qianwei's words.
Cheng Qicai was a little worried, wondering what he was really thinking.
After giving her instructions, Su Qianwei walked over and affectionately took Yun Suni's hand, tilting her head slightly to look at her: "By the way, Suni, I haven't been back to China for a long time and I'm not very familiar with City A, so Uncle Lu asked Lu Qi to come out and stroll around with me. You don't mind, do you?"
If you're worried about someone's girlfriend minding, then don't invite their boyfriend out!
Cheng Qicai looked at Lu Qi and wondered why he still wouldn't say a word.
Lu Qi complained, "Su Ni, why don't you go shopping with Su Qianwei? I'm so annoyed by her. She wants to see this and that."
Lu Qi, are you being polite? Making my sister go shopping with my love rival?
Before Yun Su Ni could speak, Su Qian Wei said with a smile, "Lu Qi, you really haven't changed. When Uncle Lu and the others asked you to go out and play with me when we were little, you were so impatient."
She then turned to look at Yun Suni, a mischievous expression on her face: "Suni, is Lu Qi this impatient when he accompanies you shopping?"
Yun Su Ni shook her head. "No."
Looking at Su Qianwei's teasy demeanor, then at Yun Su Ni's indifferent attitude, and finally at Lu Qi's blindness, Cheng Qicai was furious.
So she said, "Miss Su, really, how can a friend and a girlfriend be the same?"
Before Su Qianwei could react, Cheng Qicai saw Gu Liji enter and her eyes darted around.
She quickly stepped between Su Qianwei and Yun Su Ni, elbowing Su Qianwei towards Gu Liji, and then took her place by linking arms with Yun Su Ni.
She winked at Su Qianwei, "When it comes to who knows City A best, no one can compare to my brother Gu. You can ask him and he'll know everything."
Gu Liji had just reached the vicinity of their group when, with a hint of schadenfreude, a woman was suddenly pushed into his arms.
Upon hearing Cheng Qicai's words, Gu Liji glared at her and pushed Su Qianwei towards Lu Qi.
He grinned mischievously at Lu Qi, "Since she's Lu Qi's childhood sweetheart, I'll take care of things for her. Let Lu Qi take good care of his good friend."
The phrase "one's own good friend" was emphasized by Gu Liji, as if it were a deliberate exaggeration.
He was supposed to accompany Gu Rong to meet a client today, but when he was bored, he saw Lu Qi across the street, but the person next to him was not Yun Su Ni.
Upon closer inspection, he could vaguely discern that the woman beside him was the daughter of the Su family, and that she and Lu Qi were childhood sweethearts, their intimate demeanor evident.
It's obviously not innocent.
Gu Liji felt that his opportunity had come.
He had originally planned to give up, but unexpectedly, a new path opened up for him.
If he seizes this opportunity, his chances of getting together with Yun Su Ni are very high.
While Gu Rongqi was out with his clients, he made an excuse to slip away. He originally wanted to use Cheng Qicai as an excuse, but she seemed to have lost all interest in money.
He had no choice but to go himself, and successfully brought Yun Su Ni here.
Therefore, he went to great lengths to let Yun Suni see this scene, not to be Su Qianwei's tour guide.
Moreover, he is now eager to bring Lu Qi and Su Qianwei together so that he can take advantage of Yun Su Ni's emotional vulnerability.
This is his perfect plan, okay?
When Cheng Qicai saw Su Qianwei being pushed again by Gu Liji in a disdainful manner, her face darkened, and Cheng Qicai secretly felt quite pleased.
But when she saw Lu Qi helping Su Qianwei, she became somewhat unhappy.
"Miss, your things are packed up." The shop assistant came over, breaking the tense atmosphere between the group, each harboring their own secrets.
"Okay, thank you." Su Qianwei regained her composure and thanked the shop assistant.
She took out the small white box from the packaging bag, opened the box, and showed the ring to Yun Suni: "Suni, do you think it looks good? I think it matches my outfit quite well. I just asked Lu Qi and he said so too."
Yun Suni glanced at it for a moment and replied, "It looks great, and it suits you very well."
What's going on? Sis, let's fight! She's obviously doing this on purpose. Your answer is just letting her get cocky.
Seeing Cheng Qicai's somewhat angry expression, Yun Su Ni patted her hand reassuringly.
Cheng Qi really didn't know what Yun Su Ni was thinking, but she couldn't stand Su Qian Wei's smug look.
She leaned closer, feigning envy, "Wow, Miss Su, this ring really suits you. Look how much the leaf design on this ring resembles a green tea leaf."
Su Qianwei's smile faded slightly.
Cheng Qicai said, "Just kidding, I haven't been working under Brother Lin for nothing all this time."
Anyone could say something like that!
“Seven colors…” Yun Su Ni called out helplessly.
Cheng Qicai pouted when she heard Yun Su Ni's attempt to stop her.
She didn't start it, so why should I stop her first?
