She even wants Qiu Chen to act as a shield for Jiang Qiqi, without considering whether anyone would even be interested in her.
The hotel entrance, its lights gleaming brighter as night fell, was illuminated by the flickering lights. In the evening, Jiang Qiqi stepped out of a silver-white sports car. Qiu Chen stood by the car door, elegantly extending his hand to her. Jiang Qiqi smiled sweetly and took Qiu Chen's arm, calling him sweetly, "Brother Chen."
"Hmm." Qiu Chen was a little absent-minded today, constantly thinking about what Lu Qingyan was doing. He sent Lu Qingyan a WeChat message this afternoon, but she didn't reply. She would never do this before; she would reply to his messages within an hour at the latest.
And they had called me before, so why are they suddenly ignoring me again?
Jiang Qiqi was immersed in excitement and joy and did not notice that Qiu Chen was acting strangely. Qiu Chen was dressed very formally today. He looked even more handsome in his sharp suit. He was just like a prince who had stepped out of the comics she had seen. She was overjoyed. Just looking at him made her extremely happy.
"Brother Chen, do you think I look good tonight?" She pursed her lips and leaned shyly against Qiu Chen, completely oblivious to the fact that as his sister-in-law, she should avoid any appearance of impropriety.
Jiang Qiqi dressed up specially for this banquet, and she was indeed very dazzling tonight. The pink dress made her look even sweeter and more charming, and the exposed white shoulders added a touch of sexiness. It was also the first time Qiu Chen had seen her like this, so he was also quite amazed.
"Beautiful." Qiu Chen looked at Jiang Qiqi's face and was moved by the admiration in her eyes.
It would be a lie to say that he had no feelings for Jiang Qiqi at all. He was familiar with the way Jiang Qiqi looked at him, because all the girls who liked him looked at him that way.
Jiang Qiqi lowered her head shyly and smiled, "Brother Chen, let's go in, my friends are already here."
As soon as the two entered the hotel lobby, they attracted a lot of attention. The combination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman always attracts attention, especially a prodigy like Qiu Chen. Although his character is not so great, he can indeed become the focus wherever he goes. This time, even Jiang Qiqi beside him received a lot of attention.
"Brother Chen, I saw my friend. Can you come over and say hello?" Jiang Qiqi stuck out her tongue mischievously, secretly plotting something.
Qiu Chen said nonchalantly, "Mm."
Jiang Qiqi happily led Qiu Chen to her friends and introduced him, saying, "Meimei, Xiaomeng, I told you I would bring a male companion today, you lost!"
She then introduced Qiu Chen, Song Meimei, and Zhao Meng to them: "Brother Chen, these are my friends Song Meimei and Zhao Meng, and this is my male companion for tonight, Qiu Chen."
"Qiqi, is this really your boyfriend?" Song Meimei pulled Jiang Qiqi aside and asked.
Jiang Qiqi neither said yes nor no, but simply let out a shy "Aiya!"
Song Meimei, being simple-minded, assumed that she had tacitly agreed, and then looked at her enviously, saying, "He's so handsome! Is he the school heartthrob from my cousin's school? I remember my cousin saying that one of the school heartthrobs in their middle school was also named Qiu Chen. I still have a photo that my cousin saved."
Song Meimei took out her phone and compared the photos. Sure enough, it was the same person.
However, Jiang Qiqi's smugness didn't last long. Lu Qingyan suddenly appeared. She walked over alone, took Qiu Chen's hand, and said to Jiang Qiqi with a smile, "Qiqi, your brother-in-law has been with you for so long. You can't keep him all to yourself."
