Chapter Fifty-Two Contract Lovers
The boy usually acted too harmlessly, and the girl accepted his suggestion without thinking when she heard what he said.
In the VIP waiting room of the pet hospital, Xia Yan sat calmly to one side, her thick eyelashes drooping, her amber eyes coldly staring at the unanswered phone screen.
Just as he frowned, the phone rang.
"Xia Yan?" The girl's voice was hoarse and uneven, as if she was panting.
"Nothing, I just wanted to ask if you want to come visit me since it's almost National Day? Or maybe I can come visit you?"
"no!"
Jiang You paused for a moment after speaking, realizing that his refusal was too harsh, and quickly softened his voice to make amends: "...I, I mean I have something to do during the National Day holiday. Even if you come, I won't be able to accompany you."
Good heavens! Xia Yan came to find her, and that's how she discovered she was hiding the fact that she had a boyfriend? But that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Song Yun's affair is also about to be discovered.
She recalled that day at the comic convention, when Xia Yan's emotions became very erratic and abnormal.
Besides, someone as proud as Xia Yan wouldn't allow being cheated on during a relationship, even if he didn't like her anymore, right? She would definitely take revenge severely, wouldn't she?
Jiang You is scared now; she had underestimated the situation.
She initially thought that a perfect man like Xia Yan, who was rich, handsome, and had a great physique, would quickly get tired of her and break up with her.
Actually, when Xia Yan got into the car and left, she had already assumed that the two had broken up, and the rest was just a matter of time. That's why she agreed to help Song Wenxi look after her brother without feeling guilty.
Who knew Xia Yan would turn around and do this? Damn it! Wasn't he getting colder and colder towards her? Why is he spending such an important holiday like National Day with her? Is he planning a breakup date?
Jiang You thought about it more and more and it seemed possible. After all, wealthy people have already satisfied their material needs, so they value the sense of ritual.
"You go about your business, I'll stay by your side, it won't delay you," the young man's voice rang out, implying that no matter what, the two had to meet during the National Day holiday.
"Then I'll come visit you. I've never seen Tiananmen Square before, tsk..."
Hearing sounds of pushing and shoving coming from around the girl, Xia Yan frowned even more deeply: "What's wrong?"
"No, no, um... it's nothing. I just wasn't watching where I was going and tripped. I'll hang up now and talk to you later."
His voice was very low, as if he was trying his best to suppress something. After hanging up the phone, Xia Yan licked his canine tooth with his tongue, and a demonic aura appeared in his eyes. Something was wrong, extremely wrong.
Given her personality—she rarely leaves the house—would she be willing to travel far during a holiday?
In other words, she'd rather travel a long distance than have him go to the school to find her?
Something unusual must be going on, so what exactly is going on at Jiangyou School?
It's a pity that several distinguished students from the school are coming to give open lectures these days. I can't ask for leave, and I can't alert them, so I can only go quietly after the National Day holiday.
However, no matter what Jiang You concealed, it couldn't change the fact that she obediently stayed by his side.
"Thank you all. If it weren't for you, my little furball would have gone to Cat Planet," said a petite and delicate young girl.
Her long, fine, jet-black hair cascaded down to her waist. On her small face, a pair of clear, doe-like eyes, still wet with tears, looked uneasily at the three people in front of her—no, they should be looking at the refined young man sitting lazily to the side.
He wore a loose-fitting dark denim jacket, and the barely visible collarbone peeking out from his white T-shirt collar only added to his alluring charm.
Lu Shi'an and Xue Yun exchanged a glance. Alright, she's here for Xia Ge. They leaned lazily to one side, casually watching how the girl would express her gratitude.
Shi Niannian bit her lip lightly and looked at the two people next to her in a soft and weak voice: "I would like to have a few words with Xia alone, is that alright?"
This morning, her little furball suddenly had a seizure. The taxi she had called was late, so she had no choice but to randomly flag down a car on the street. Unexpectedly, the car was carrying Xia's youngest son.
There's always a way out, and she decided to take a gamble.
Lu Shi'an, seemingly lost in thought, pulled Xue Yun away from the VIP consultation room.
Xue Yun had no doubts. After all, Lu Shi'an was the most chivalrous and gentlemanly of women. He genuinely loved women, and of course, all of this was based on their beauty.
Inside, Shi Niannian called out "Xia Tongxue" twice before Xia Yan realized someone was calling him. He looked up from the Jiangyou chat interface with a blank expression.
If Lu Shi'an and Xue Yun were here, they would know that Xia Ge was in a very bad mood. After all, Xia Ge liked to put on an act when he was outside. Even if his mind was blank or he was extremely angry, he would still have a smile on his lips. If he didn't smile, it meant that he was in such a bad mood that he was too lazy to pretend.
Shi Niannian didn't know and thought that was his expression, so she timidly said, "Xia, Xia classmate, my name is Shi Niannian, and I want to make a deal with you."
Xia Yan glanced at the girl and searched his memory for her information: the daughter of the Shi family. Recently, the Shi Group had encountered significant financial problems, and he heard that her father, who had married into the family, was going to marry her off to an older man from a business partner.
After all, with his biological mother dead, most of the Shi family's assets fell into the hands of the "phoenix man" (a man from a poor background who achieves success).
"Xia, I know your family is pressuring you to find a girlfriend. I'm a good girl and won't cause trouble. If you're worried I'll cling to you, we can draft a contract..."
“Stop, I have a girlfriend,” Xia Yan stood up. Regardless of whether it was the Xia family or the Bai family, they had few descendants, so ever since he turned eighteen, the calls for him to find a girlfriend had never stopped.
In the past, he might have actually considered it, but now he just felt that the person in front of him was a lunatic.
