Although he knew that Tang Yaoyao was helpless and anxious for her father, and that her relationship with Huo Linfeng was not as complicated as he had imagined, Xiao Jinhan still felt uneasy seeing this scene.
His eyes were indifferent, and he said nothing, but his fingers, which were placed at his sides, clenched tightly. He asked, "Is she very close to Huo Linfeng?"
Jiang Ci stood there, unsure whether to leave or analyze their relationship... but he wasn't exactly a relationship expert.
But he smelled the sour scent of love in the air, and Fourth Master's jealousy flared up.
Looking at this heartwarming scene, no one could resist.
It was just the right time; this awkward and bewildering scene unfolded before our eyes, leaving no one able to explain it.
He gave an awkward laugh, trying to maintain their relationship: "It might not be so good..."
"Possibly?" Xiao Jinhan glanced at Jiang Ci, a chill running down his spine.
Under the cold gaze, Jiang Ci tensed up, as if she had said something wrong, and quickly shook her head: "It's not good, I haven't heard of any connection between them."
"Heh." Xiao Jinhan's dark eyes grew even colder, a mocking smile playing on his lips: "You didn't know? As far as I know, they were betrothed since childhood."
"..." Jiang Ci kept her mouth shut, suddenly realizing that whatever she said was unacceptable to Fourth Master, who would instead nitpick.
Jiang Ci sighed and said, "Is that so?"
"Right?" Xiao Jinhan clenched his fist. "You think they have a chance?"
Jiang Cixin's heart tightened, and she quickly shook her head to deny it: "No, no, no, I didn't think that way. Although Miss seems carefree and doesn't care about anything, the one she cares about most is Fourth Master. In her heart, Fourth Master would not be philandering outside. I believe Miss and Fourth Master."
He tried his best to say nice things about Tang Yaoyao, thinking that even if Fourth Master had a girlfriend or wife one day, he would definitely not be like a resentful woman...
No, I would never be so anxious about gains and losses.
It seems like everything has been turned upside down.
Xiao Jinhan's thin lips curled slightly, as if he had figured it out: "Are you implying... she's a playboy?"
"..." Jiang Ci was stunned. When did he ever say, "Fourth Master, I didn't say that..."
Xiao Jinhan chuckled twice, seemingly unable to pretend nothing was wrong no matter how Jiang Ci explained or tried to erase the seemingly intimate scene between the two.
"Fourth Master Xiao..."
Su Mei, who was with Tang Yaoyao, saw Xiao Jinhan standing not far away, witnessing the scene at the ward door. Her heart tightened, and she seemed to feel guilty for Tang Yaoyao, her voice even trembling.
Standing there, as cold as a mountain shrouded in mist, Xiao Jinhan remained expressionless and showed no intention of approaching.
Su Mei's cries also woke Huo Linfeng.
He was kneeling on one knee looking at the sleeping Tang Yaoyao, but the next second he stood up and put a distance between himself and Tang Yaoyao.
He turned around and met Xiao Jinhan's gaze. The emotion in Xiao Jinhan's eyes was perfectly natural, and his hands were in his pockets.
However, Xiao Jinhan was wary of him.
That's not how you look at a normal woman.
Tang Yaoyao was a light sleeper. She woke up at the sound, opened her blurry eyes, and looked up to see Xiao Jinhan.
Knowing nothing, she was stunned for a moment, then called out, "Xiao..."
Xiao Jinhan didn't say anything, and turned around to step into the elevator.
Jiang Ci paused for a moment, then gave Tang Yaoyao a knowing look before following Xiao Jinhan into the elevator.
? ? ?
Tang Yaoyao couldn't understand what was wrong with her Xiao-gege again.
