Qin Che, who was initially extremely excited, suddenly stiffened for a moment when he saw Mu Lingxi.
Even though the two of them had no relationship whatsoever, and it wasn't even as close as his relationship with Song Bao'er, Qin Che still felt a sense of guilt towards Mu Lingxi.
He dared not look into the girl's eyes again, afraid of seeing the hurt in her eyes, afraid that he would soften his heart, and afraid that he would fall in love.
Gao Yue was right next to him and naturally noticed the man's stiffness.
Recalling Qin Che's reaction just now, she immediately became alarmed and regarded Mu Lingxi as her number one rival in love.
Gao Yue is a child who emerged from the competition within the Gao family. What she fears most is not competition; she has the confidence and courage to win this time.
So Gao Yue took the initiative to shove the teddy bear in her arms into Qin Che's hands, seemingly complaining but actually showing off.
"It's so heavy, can you put it away for me? I'll come back for it next time."
Although the woman's voice had a certain intonation, it wasn't annoying; it sounded like she was talking to someone normally.
Qin Che was suddenly given a toy by Gao Yue, and he instinctively hugged it. He also nodded in agreement to her request.
"So you don't like it? Then I'll put it in my room."
After hearing this, Gao Yue pouted and pretended to be angry, but actually made physical contact to snatch the teddy bear back.
The two were very close, and because of what had happened during the day, Qin Che no longer objected to Gao Yue's approach, so she bumped into him.
If he hadn't been holding onto the doll so tightly, it really would have been snatched back, so he immediately spoke up to question it.
"Hey, what are you doing? Why are you taking back what you gave me? What's going on?"
Gao Yue reached out to snatch it, displaying the demeanor of a young girl, and it was clear that she had truly fallen for Qin Che.
"Who said I gave it to you? I just asked you to keep it for me temporarily. Who knew you wanted to keep it for yourself? Well then, I won't allow it. Give it back."
Gao Yue chased, and Qin Che dodged; for a moment, the small house was filled with their laughter.
If you ignore all those eyes, it is indeed a very beautiful picture.
As Mu Lingxi watched, she became even more certain of her thought: it was fortunate that she had not been bound to Qin Che.
In his previous life, Qin Che was a male guest who was extremely popular with women, and he was also the only one who had feelings for him.
At the same time, Qin Che also developed feelings for other women, just like today, getting along very well with Gao Yue and Bai Mengmeng.
Therefore, in her previous life, she did not firmly choose Qin Che, but instead wanted to get to know other boys.
Mu Lingxi's first plan after her rebirth was to fight Qin Che to the death.
Even if he flirts with other girls, she can pretend it never happened and turn a blind eye.
However, now, Mu Lingxi was only relieved. Fortunately, her plan had not yet been implemented. She died before she could even begin, and her plan collapsed midway through.
Misfortune and fortune are intertwined; who knows whether it will bring fortune or misfortune?
Seeing that Mu Lingxi's face showed no sadness or distress, the boys naturally breathed a sigh of relief.
Bo Changling, in particular, has always been domineering and doesn't want his woman to be interested in other men.
So when he saw that Mu Lingxi's face showed no sadness, his mood instantly soared.
"Xi'er, are you full? Would you like something to drink? I'll get it for you."
Bo Changling's voice brought everyone back to their senses and drew their attention back to Mu Lingxi, causing the two who had been chasing and playing to stop.
Gao Yue's hair was a little messy from running. She glanced at Mu Lingxi, who hadn't said anything yet, and casually complained to Qin Che.
"It's all your fault, you didn't even greet everyone properly, really."
Although it was said in a complaining tone, the intimacy in her words told everyone that Qin Che treated her differently.
Gao Yue was practically making it clear that she had her eye on Qin Che, and that no one else should try to take him from her, or she wouldn't be so polite.
In particular, when Gao Yue's gaze swept across everyone, he deliberately lingered on Mu Lingxi's beautiful and delicate face, which seemed to have a hidden meaning.
Mu Lingxi was utterly bewildered by her display of defiance. Was Qin Che hers?
In this life, the first person she goes on a date with isn't Qin Che, so why would he look at her with that defensive and defiant gaze?
Gao Yue was naturally worried; Mu Lingxi's face was simply too alluring.
She now considers Qin Che her own, so naturally she doesn't want him to be seduced by others.
However, one still has to maintain appearances, otherwise, one's behavior might be criticized.
Thinking of this, Gao Yue took Qin Che's hand with one hand and hugged the teddy bear with the other, pulling him towards the dining table and greeting everyone in a generous manner.
"Sorry we're back late. We had a pretty full schedule today, so we ate out. You guys all got back so early?"
Song Bao'er's face was unusually cold. She hadn't expected that Qin Che would become even more promiscuous after breaking off their engagement.
She looked at the tall woman in front of her, who had a neat high ponytail and a mature, sophisticated air about her.
Song Bao'er sneered inwardly. Qin Che was indeed a leopard that couldn't change its spots. He couldn't be without women and didn't know how to keep his distance from them.
Gao Yue's current lovestruck expression clearly shows that she has been seduced by Qin Che.
Song Bao'er felt a pang of jealousy, but she wouldn't admit it. After all, how could a girl who was the center of attention possibly go back to an ex?
“Since you’ve already eaten, you should have told me beforehand, so that we wouldn’t have to cook your portions and waste food.”
The sourness in Song Bao'er's tone was immediately noticeable, which drew everyone's attention, except for the few men who were captivated by Mu Lingxi.
Qin Che was the first to notice that Song Bao'er was in a bad mood. After all, the two had a lot of history together and were the people who knew each other best.
Song Bao'er is jealous, but... what about the other person?
He glanced at Mu Lingxi subconsciously, secretly anticipating her reaction.
However, Mu Lingxi was only focused on enjoying Bo Changling's feeding and didn't even glance at Qin Che.
Moreover, Qin Che keenly noticed that Bo Changling, Han Jin, and Yi Changfeng's gazes were constantly fixed on Mu Lingxi, never leaving her.
Men understand men best; when a man likes someone, his eyes will never leave her.
Qin Che felt a little disappointed; the joyful atmosphere he had just shared with Gao Yue had completely vanished.
Only then did he realize how despicable he was, seducing other girls while hoping that Mu Lingxi would be jealous of him.
pity……
It didn't go as planned.
