It would have been fine if Qu Lingyuan didn't mention this card, but once she did, An Jingxuan wanted to ask one more question.
"What did you buy today? Why did you spend so much?" He asked out of pure curiosity.
Qu Zhian and Chang Yue immediately became unhappy: "What's wrong with your sister spending some of your money? Is Jiang Xinyue really the only thing on her mind?"
An Jingxuan was stunned for a moment: "No... I was just asking."
Qu Lingyuan pouted unhappily again: "Do you see what I'm holding? They're all for my sister-in-law. I didn't buy anything."
She stared at the people in front of her with her big eyes, with an expression that said, "You are wrongly accusing me."
Hearing her say this, the two parents became even more unhappy: "She hasn't even married yet, and she dares to spend our money like this?"
Qu Lingyuan tried to explain for Jiang Xinyue: "Sister-in-law doesn't look like someone who would spend money lavishly."
Chang Yue snorted coldly: "Don't judge a person by appearance. If you take out a black card, she will definitely think it's a waste not to spend it."
Although Qu Zhian didn't say anything, he nodded firmly.
As a son, An Jingxuan experienced for the first time what it meant to be caught in the middle and not be accepted by either side.
In his heart, Jiang Xinyue was not that kind of person, but facts spoke louder than words, leaving him at a loss for words.
An Jingxuan felt uncomfortable, but Qu Lingyuan felt better. She threw the card into An Jingxuan's arms, carried her small leather bag in one hand, and walked upstairs with a "click, click, click" sound.
"I made him abuse me, I made him like Jiang Xinyue, I'm so mad!" She complained to Yi Ling as she walked upstairs.
Yi Ling looked at her with amusement: "I say you will take revenge for any flaw, and you have to make me say it for sure. You even take revenge on the male protagonist."
Qu Lingyuan raised her head proudly: "Of course, I won't tolerate anyone bullying me."
Her current target is still Jiang Xinyue. As long as she can establish a good relationship with you and make the other party let down her guard, everything will be fine.
As An Jingxuan's "biological sister", she has enough status to prove her innocence. Even if she is a little closer to An Jingxuan, it will not arouse Jiang Xinyue's vigilance.
In the next few days, Qu Lingyuan took advantage of her free time at work and ran to Jiang Xinyue's school from time to time to give her warmth.
Occasionally she would send some snacks, sometimes some expensive gifts, anyway, the whole school knew that Jiang Xinyue’s sister-in-law liked her very much.
Because Qu Lingyuan has very good looks and family background, many boys in the school, after knowing that she has no boyfriend, openly or secretly asked Jiang Xinyue for her contact information to find out the situation.
Jiang Xinyue also remembered what Qu Lingyuan said the day before yesterday, and began to look for a boyfriend for her among the people she knew.
After all, she was introducing a boyfriend to her future sister-in-law, so Jiang Xinyue chose very carefully and actually found quite a few suitable candidates.
Qu Lingyuan's tall and noble image has been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Even if Jiang Xinyue doesn't want to admit that she is not as good as her, she has to admit that none of the boys she knows are worthy of her.
After hesitating for a long time, Jiang Xinyue decided to give Qu Lingyuan a call.
On a weekday, Qu Lingyuan was sitting in the office doing nothing, playing with her mobile phone. When she saw the caller ID, she immediately answered the call.
"Hello, sister-in-law?" Her voice sounded lazy, even during working hours.
Jiang Xinyue knew that she had a nice voice, but she had never heard her voice in this tone before. She was stunned for a moment and didn't react.
Qu Lingyuan waited for a while and seeing that she didn't say anything, she asked again, "Sister-in-law?"
Jiang Xinyue finally recovered and got straight to the point: "Didn't you ask me to introduce you to a boyfriend? I've been looking for one these days, but I don't know what kind you like specifically. If you have any requirements, please tell me."
Qu Lingyuan didn't expect that she would find it so quickly.
She herself didn't really want to find a boyfriend, so naturally she didn't have any specific requirements. Now that she was asked, she really didn't know how to start.
After a moment of silence, she said, "It's fine as long as Sister-in-law thinks it's good. To be honest, I don't know what kind of person I should look for. After all, I have no experience... Why don't you let me meet the person you've found if you have time?"
She came up with this compromise.
When you meet someone, just pick the one you like. You will break up soon anyway.
Jiang Xinyue felt that what she said made sense, so she agreed and hung up the phone. She began to contact the people she had selected, trying to put this matter on the agenda as soon as possible.
Qu Lingyuan stretched in the office.
"Just wait and see how I'm going to play with them." She glanced at Yi Ling complacently.
This roundabout tactic is a waste of time, but it is still very effective. No one will find out that she is trying to steal Jiang Xinyue's boyfriend.
So far, An Jingxuan really has no feelings for her. Once discovered, she will be at a disadvantage, and it will be difficult to explain later. It will become even more difficult to get close to An Jingxuan again.
"Come on, I've already sensed your endless tricks this time." Yi Ling broke out in a cold sweat.
It’s true that you should never mess with a woman, she’s too scary.
Qu Lingyuan gave him a thumbs up.
During dinner, An Jingxuan brought up the matter of engagement. Perhaps Jiang Xinyue couldn't help but bring it up first in order to tie An Jingxuan down, or perhaps he himself couldn't bear it anymore.
In short, Qu Lingyuan was very unhappy.
She spat out the chopsticks in her mouth and interrupted, "Come to think of it, I even asked my sister-in-law to introduce me to a boyfriend. I'm not young anymore, and I've never had any contact with a man."
Qu Zhian and Chang Yue instantly ignored An Jingxuan's engagement and looked nervous.
"Ask her to introduce you to a boyfriend? What kind of good man can she meet? That's ridiculous."
"Yeah, you know you've never been in contact with a man before. Aren't you afraid of running into a bad guy and getting cheated?"
Both of them spoke in a hurried tone.
Qu Lingyuan looked confused and puzzled. "What's the big deal? I'm not afraid of being cheated. Can my sister-in-law introduce me to a bad guy? Besides, I'm already old enough, it's time for me to try it myself. You're so anxious about my marriage and worried about it. I might never get married."
Qu Zhian said with disapproval: "If you can't get married, then you can't get married. It's not like Dad can't support you."
Qu Lingyuan poked at the cauliflower in the bowl in front of her unhappily: "I don't want to be a loser at home."
The topic changed too quickly, and An Jingxuan looked at Qu Lingyuan helplessly.
His sister is really a little princess at home. Although he doesn't have a very good relationship with her, under the subtle influence of his parents, he unconsciously goes along with her in everything.
But to be honest, up to now, this sister has never been particularly willful, nor has she ever acted coquettishly towards him.
