This move was unexpected by both of them.
But Luo Qingyuan still hid behind Duan Ye and wiped away her tears.
Duan Ye stood there, looking at the newcomer with hostility.
He called her "Sister Luo" so affectionately, but he had never heard of Luo Qingyuan having such a big younger brother.
At this moment, Xie Beixiu also stood opposite Duan Ye. Seeing Duan Ye protecting Luo Qingyuan, he was very unhappy: "Who are you? Did you make my sister Luo angry?"
Before Duan Ye could answer, Xie Beixiu turned his head to look at Luo Qingyuan with a bright smile: "Sister Luo, the banquet is over. Shall I take you home?"
Duan Ye sneered: "Who are you?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Beixiu immediately became agitated. Standing up, he was neither as tall nor as strong as Duan Ye, and he couldn't help but awkwardly puff out his chest: "I'm the son of Mr. Xie, a partner of this charity gala. And you? Who are you? What are you doing bothering my sister Luo?"
Cheng Suisui hurriedly squeezed through the crowd, holding a cup of coffee in her hand.
Just as she left, Luo Qingyuan sent two words: coffee.
So he didn't want tea, so Cheng Suisui quickly went to get coffee. She didn't expect that Xie Beixiu would come again after only a short while. No, how come he doesn't have any of his father's sense of propriety?
Cheng Suisui: "Young Master Xie, what are you doing here? Your father wants you to go back."
Cheng Suisui bypassed Duan Ye, walked to Luo Qingyuan's side, picked up the coat that hadn't been picked up from the ground, and handed the coffee to Luo Qingyuan.
Duan Ye then withdrew his hand, but his gaze toward Xie Beixiu was still unfriendly.
Xie Beixiu was somewhat displeased when he saw Cheng Suisui arrive. Why did she come so quickly?
However, as he took off his suit jacket, he tried to walk towards Luo Qingyuan: "Sister Luo, your clothes are all on the ground, and it's quite cold tonight, so please wear mine for now..."
Luo Qingyuan finally turned around, and even when she wasn't facing Duan Ye, her demeanor remained arrogant.
Luo Qingyuan didn't say anything directly to Xie Beixiu, but instead gave him a cold look before making a phone call to Boss Xie.
Xie Beixiu was taken aback by Luo Qingyuan's actions, then said, "Don't do that. Who calls the parents over a disagreement?"
Duan Ye glanced at Luo Qingyuan indifferently: "Are you cold?"
Luo Qingyuan subconsciously said, "It's not cold."
General Xie quickly walked towards them.
Duan Ye glanced at Xie Beixiu, took off his coat, and handed it to Luo Qingyuan in front of everyone: "Put it on."
Xie Beixiu was dumbfounded when he saw Duan Ye's action: "Wait, who are you? How could Sister Luo possibly wear..."
However, the next second, Luo Qingyuan took Duan Ye's coat, and Duan Ye casually took the coffee from Luo Qingyuan's hand and took a sip himself.
Cheng Suisui didn't say anything, nor did Luo Qingyuan. Xie Beixiu could barely speak, his finger trembling as he pointed at them: "You...you..."
Boss Xie jumped out from behind and grabbed Xie Beixiu, saying, "You, you, what do you mean? Get back here!"
Xie Beixiu looked distressed: "No, Dad, I didn't do anything, it's just..."
Boss Xie turned around and slapped Xie Beixiu. Xie Beixiu dodged to the left, but the slap still landed squarely on his shoulder.
Xie Beixiu was both angry and shocked: "Dad! Why did you hit me?"
General Xie was extremely annoyed: "Quickly, drag the young master away."
Xie Beixiu wanted to argue further, but the bodyguards grabbed him from both sides and dragged him out.
Mr. Xie looked at Luo Qingyuan with great apology: "I'm sorry, Ms. Luo, it was my oversight. I will definitely come to apologize in person another day."
Having said that, General Xie dared not linger any longer and hurriedly called to the onlookers, "What are you looking at? The banquet is over, it's time to clear the area..."
After Boss Xie spoke, and given Luo Qingyuan's less-than-pleasant expression, no one dared to linger and they all headed out. However, many people still secretly cast glances at Luo Qingyuan.
This is juicy gossip about President Luo; everyone wants a piece of the story.
At this moment, Luo Qingyuan had already put on Duan Ye's coat.
Duan Ye glanced at Teacher Zhuo and his group who were waiting for him, then looked at Luo Qingyuan, as if he had something to say. In the end, he hesitated and only said, "I've taken the coffee. It's too late. Don't always drink coffee at night in the future."
Cheng Suisui was supporting Luo Qingyuan, so she could feel Luo Qingyuan's body suddenly tense up.
"good."
Duan Ye responded and prepared to leave.
The moment Luo Qingyuan saw Duan Ye lift his foot, she instinctively grabbed Cheng Suisui's hand.
Duan Ye turned back to look at her: "Then...see you tomorrow?"
Luo Qingyuan nodded: "Okay, see you tomorrow."
"Oh, right..."
Duan Ye looked at her with a questioning gaze.
Luo Qingyuan said, "Can we... exchange contact information?"
Duan Ye's expression froze for a moment.
Luo Qingyuan explained, "I didn't mean anything by it, it's just that we're supposed to introduce Luoluo and Chenchen to each other tomorrow, right? We have to..."
Duan Ye interrupted her: "I haven't changed my contact information."
Speaking of this, Duan Ye couldn't help but give a wry smile: "After all this time, haven't you even tried to contact them once?"
Seeing Duan Ye's expression, Luo Qingyuan suddenly felt that many things were difficult to say.
She wanted to say something, but Duan Ye didn't give her a chance to speak and turned away.
Luo Qingyuan felt a slight pang in her heart.
Most of the people had left, and Cheng Suisui helped Luo Qingyuan sit down again.
Seeing Luo Qingyuan's distressed expression, Cheng Suisui sighed.
This time, Cheng Suisui didn't call her President Luo anymore, but instead said, "Miss, why are you doing this to yourself?"
Luo Qingyuan remained silent.
Cheng Suisui continued, "Actually, the gentleman cares about you quite a bit, otherwise he wouldn't have been willing to come and meet you tonight."
Luo Qingyuan frowned: "Did you arrange this on purpose?"
Cheng Suisui didn't hide it from Luo Qingyuan: "Yes."
She did indeed team up with General Xie to lure Duan Ye over.
But on her way here, she had already heard from the guide that Duan Ye had noticed something was wrong and was about to go back when the guide told Duan Ye: "Sir, someone wants to see you."
Duan Ye then followed.
If Duan Ye didn't care about Luo Qingyuan at all, how could he have followed her even though he knew it was a deliberate arrangement?
"Miss, the gentleman clearly wants to see you too."
"Don't argue with your husband anymore..."
Luo Qingyuan gently closed her eyes: "You don't understand..."
Cheng Suisui wanted to persuade her again, but Luo Qingyuan had already stood up and walked outside.
Cheng Suisui could only keep her mouth shut for the time being.
This time, however, Cheng Suisui did not sit idly by and wait for her fate.
