"I don't understand," An Shu lowered her head to set the table, muttering to him, "You're wearing headphones when you come out to eat."
Xie Zian said calmly, "I'm just listening to the replay of the live broadcast."
Qu Lingyuan perked up when she heard this: "Kong Han's explanation?"
Grabbing the headset with one hand and throwing it onto the sofa, Xie Zian nodded affirmatively: "Why, are you interested in her?"
This statement is a bit ambiguous.
Qu Lingyuan felt a chill run down her spine and gave a dry laugh. "I just heard she often applies to be your team's commentator. She seems to only commentate on your team's live broadcasts, right?"
As she spoke, she moved closer and nudged Xie Zian with her shoulder. "Do you think she'll like you? I've seen your live broadcasts before, and her focus has always been on you."
Xie Zian pretended to be stern and raised his hand to knock her on the forehead: "You keep guessing all day long."
Qu Lingyuan pouted coquettishly and said nothing.
Today is the weekend, and Xie Chi rushed to the gym to make up for the missed time. He didn't go home for lunch, so there were only three people at the dining table.
Halfway through the meal, Xie Zian's cell phone on the dining table suddenly vibrated.
The phone is ultra-thin and transparent, somewhat similar to Yiling's light screen.
Xie Zian looked at the phone screen and his expression suddenly changed. He looked at Qu Lingyuan with a complicated expression.
"What's wrong?" Qu Lingyuan spoke incoherently with a piece of pork ribs in her mouth, her face full of confusion.
The text message was not sent by her, why are you looking at her?
Xie Zian had a mysterious smile on his face: "Kong Han asked me to go to the coffee shop this afternoon. He said he had something important to tell me."
His eyes were deep, as if saying: You are also a prophet.
He lowered his head and turned his gaze back to his phone. He thought for a moment and typed very quickly.
Qu Lingyuan put down her chopsticks and moved closer to him, looking at the screen as if she was almost lying on his shoulder.
The screen was a little reflective, but she still saw Xie Zian reply to Kong Han: Text me if you have anything to say.
"You just stopped talking to my sister-in-law?" Qu Lingyuan said with regret.
Xie Zian turned his head to look at her, and his eyes met hers as she looked up. They were so close that they could almost feel the heat of each other's breath.
Qu Lingyuan's dense and long eyelashes trembled, and her clean eyes were clear and transparent. Xie Zian felt nervous for no reason.
The phone vibrated again.
Kong Han said: It’s better to say it in person.
It looks like I have to meet Xie Zian.
Qu Lingyuan couldn't wait to meet Kong Han, and tried her best to help her persuade Xie Zian, with a bit of coquettishness in her tone: "Just go, I like her very much, why don't you take me with you?"
An Shu, the mother, sat opposite the two of them, biting the chopsticks unconsciously with her canine teeth.
Many years ago, she had been thinking about pairing the two children together. As time went by, the two children got along more and more like siblings, and this idea faded a little.
Now this idea came to my mind again, like a flood that suddenly burst through the dam, flowing in my heart endlessly.
However...it seems that there is a woman named Kong Han who wants to seduce her son?
An Shu spit out the chopsticks and suddenly said, "Zi'an, take Yuanyuan with you. If that girl named Kong Han really likes you, it would be better for her, as your younger sister, to check (and mess around)."
Xie Zian nodded in surprise, not expecting his mother to interfere in such matters.
He is used to it too.
It has been like this since childhood. Whenever Qu Lingyuan wants to do something, An Shu dotes on her daughter and basically doesn't consider her biological son's thoughts.
Anyway, Xie Zian was happy to indulge her.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xie Zian took Qu Lingyuan to the coffee shop where Kong Han had made an appointment with him.
When they arrived, Kong Han was already sitting at the table and ordered a cup of coffee. She was wearing a white dress, looking intellectual and elegant.
When she saw that there were two people coming, she was stunned for a moment with her coffee in her hand.
After settling down, Qu Lingyuan spoke first, "Sister Kong Han, right? I really like you and have been looking forward to meeting you in person! Brother Zi'an said he wanted to come see you today, so I shamelessly followed him. You don't mind, do you?"
Kong Han put the coffee cup on the table stiffly and forced a smile: "No...no."
She lowered her head slightly to hide the dissatisfaction in her eyes.
She asked Xie Zian out today to confess her feelings. Could Xie Zian really not see it? He even brought such a big light bulb!
"Sister Kong Han is much prettier in person than she appears in the live broadcast. I'm so envious of her. No wonder she's so popular. I often see male fans giving you gifts, and they're so generous." Qu Lingyuan seemed to have honey on her lips, praising her without blinking.
Xie Zian looked at Qu Lingyuan suspiciously.
It is true that Kong Han is beautiful, but the holographic projection used for live broadcasts has a beauty bonus. She is definitely not as beautiful in real life as she is in the live broadcast.
Besides, in Xie Zian's eyes, no one can compare to Qu Lingyuan in terms of appearance.
The air was stagnant for a moment, Kong Han became more and more embarrassed, bit his lip and did not respond to Qu Lingyuan.
She looked up at Xie Zian and said in a gentle tone, "Zian, would you like something to drink?"
Xie Zian didn't answer her question. He leaned back in his chair casually and looked at her nonchalantly, lacking interest. "Don't you have something to say? I have a game tonight and I'm in a hurry."
Two o'clock was still a long time from evening, and the excuses he made were not sincere at all, clearly telling Kong Han that he didn't want to stay here any longer.
Qu Lingyuan poked him from the side and complained, "How can you talk like that?"
Xie Zian looked at her helplessly, straightened his expression obediently, and sat up straighter.
This scene stung Kong Han's eyes. She frowned slightly, clenched her fists, and said solemnly, "Zi'an, I like you."
It was indeed a confession.
Xie Zian didn't know what to say for a moment, and Qu Lingyuan beside him suddenly rolled her eyes at Kong Han.
Kong Han felt uncomfortable being inexplicably eye-rolled. Her female intuition told her that Qu Lingyuan also liked Xie Zian, so she said in a stern tone, "Why are you glaring at me for no reason? Didn't your parents teach you what good manners are?"
The words "mom and dad" made Qu Lingyuan's ears hurt. She pursed her lips and glanced at Xie Zian aggrievedly, then lowered her head and explained in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I rolled my eyes because my eye was cramped. Next time I will be careful not to roll my eyes at others..."
Originally, Xie Zian felt a little offended by what Kong Han said, but after hearing this explanation, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Reaching out and grasping Qu Lingyuan's slender, white wrist, he stood up from his seat and looked at Kong Han expressionlessly: "I'm sorry I can't respond to you. If there's nothing else, we'll leave first."
Qu Lingyuan was pulled up from her seat by him and walked out of the coffee shop.
Kong Han was still sitting in his seat, looking at a loss.
She scratched her scalp in annoyance, and her white fingers passed through her hair, instantly pulling down a handful of hair, which was panic-stricken.
"I...when did I lose so much hair?"
