Lu Qingyan sneered: "Jiang Qiqi, this is a birthday party, not an engagement party or anything like that where you have to bring someone. What kind of male companion do you need?"
"But sister, you have Brother Chen with you." Jiang Qiqi looked at Lu Qingyan pitifully.
“That’s my boyfriend. If you want someone to keep you company, at your age, you can go find someone yourself. Your parents won’t stop you,” Lu Qingyan encouraged her.
"Sister, could you let Brother Chen be my date? I can't find anyone to keep me company," Jiang Qiqi said, her gaze fixed on Qiu Chen.
Lu Qingyan looked at Jiang Qiqi and saw that she had delicate and lovely features, long flowing hair, and eyes like an innocent and bewildered little deer. However, Lu Qingyan could see a trace of envy and jealousy in her eyes. Her small mouth was slightly upturned, her chin was raised, and she looked confident and arrogant. It was obvious that she was used to being willful.
This is Jiang Qiqi, who is pampered and spoiled by everyone. She is clearly the person Jiang Ranran envies the most.
"Why are you asking me about this? Shouldn't you be asking him? I heard it clearly just now; he has already rejected you."
Jiang Qiqi bit her lower lip: "Sister, you're his girlfriend. As long as you talk to Brother Chen, he'll definitely agree."
Jiang Qiqi, with a pained expression, used the exact same excuse Jiang Ranran remembered, "Sister, I've already told my friends I'll definitely bring a male companion this time, but I don't know any other guys. Please help me out, lend me Brother Chen for a quick fix. There's a guy I know who's always wanted me to be his girlfriend, but I don't like him at all. He looks too fierce, and I don't dare to refuse him. Sister, you won't just watch me get bullied by him, right?"
Lu Qingyan calmly walked to the sofa opposite Jiang Qiqi and sat down. She glanced at her indifferently and then said, "You brought Qiu Chen there because you wanted your friend to misunderstand your relationship and use him as a shield for you?"
"Sister, please help me with this. Among all the people I know, only Brother Chen is the most capable. If I send someone else, I'm worried he won't be able to stop that person." Jiang Qiqi looked at Qiu Chen again, her big eyes filled with tears.
Lu Qingyan smiled and said, "Jiang Qiqi, if you introduce him to your friends, what if they actually take it seriously? When Qiu Chen and I hold our engagement party, won't people say that I stole Qiu Chen from you?"
Jiang Qiqi glanced at Lu Qingyan furtively and said, "Sister, don't worry, I'll explain to them later."
"Explain? How are you going to explain this?" Lu Qingyan looked at her with amusement, wanting to hear how she would explain this lie.
“I—” Jiang Qiqi’s eyes reddened.
She just wanted to take this opportunity to snatch Qiu Chen away from "Jiang Ranran" and never intended to give him back. Why should she explain for her?
Looking at Jiang Qiqi's eyes, which were as red as a rabbit's, Qiu Chen couldn't help but advise, "Ranran, Qiqi is still young and doesn't understand things. Don't take it to heart."
"She's still young? Yes, she's a bit younger than me, but she's already an adult. What you're saying doesn't seem quite right." Lu Qingyan looked at Qiu Chen, who was speaking up for Jiang Qiqi, and found him extremely displeasing.
"Qiu Chen, hearing you defend her so much, I almost thought you two were siblings and I was an outsider in this family."
