Xu Yaxin was unaware that her plans had been completely ruined. Filled with complaints about William's unreliability and excitement about Xu Xinchen's impending doom, she returned to the villa.
The designers inside the villa had no idea what had just happened. When Li Ling and Qian Duowen went out, they didn't tell them what had happened either, as they didn't want to affect other people's moods.
Therefore, when they saw Xu Yaxin return, their attitude towards her remained the same as always. Several designers excitedly waved to Xu Yaxin and called her over to eat.
"Miss Xu, come over here quickly. We have some roasted chicken wings. Come and have a taste."
Xu Yaxin gave a polite smile and slowly walked towards the foreign designer. At the same time, her eyes swept around the courtyard and she noticed that the host, Qian Duowen, was not there, which instantly aroused her curiosity.
"That's strange. Where's Qian Duowen? Where did he go? And Li Ling, where did she go too?" With everyone else still there, it's very suspicious that only two people are missing.
However, Xu Yaxin only gossiped that Qian Duowen and Li Ling had some unspeakable secrets between them, and didn't think about it at all.
Meanwhile, the designers on the other side were even more surprised. Upon hearing Xu Yaxin's question, some of them let out lewd laughter: "These two probably have some secret they need to keep from us, so they found a place to chat."
Go ahead.
However, as soon as that person said that, another person immediately refuted him: "Don't go around talking nonsense while they're not here. Someone clearly had something to discuss with them, which is why they went out together."
However, these words were naturally a downer to the person who was currently indulging in gossip. Xu Yaxin coldly turned her head and glanced at that person, then snorted and picked up the roasted chicken wings from the plate to start biting.
Qian Duowen and Li Ling returned to the villa more than half an hour later. By the time they arrived, the others had almost finished eating, and many of them spontaneously started cleaning with brooms and sweepers.
Qian Duowen and Li Ling saw this scene, exchanged a glance, and decided not to ruin the other person's mood when they were about to leave, so they suppressed their anger.
Qian Duowen strode into the courtyard and called out to the people carrying brooms and sweepers, "You don't need to work so hard. Just leave these here. A servant will come and clean them up later."
"We don't have anything to do since we're going back so early, so we'll just help tidy up. You two went out so early, you probably haven't eaten much yet. There's still some left over there, go and eat some."
When the designers saw the two of them appear together, they couldn't help but recall what they had been gossiping about earlier, and a hint of ambiguous smiles appeared on their faces for a moment, but they quickly suppressed them.
However, Xu Yaxin didn't have as many concerns as these designers. But because she had a connection with Qian Duowen and Li Ling, who came from the same country, Xu Yaxin stepped forward with a mischievous smile and said to Qian Duowen.
"Qian Duowen, what were you and Li Ling doing? Why did you take so long to come back? Could it be that..."
After what had just happened, Qian Duowen had absolutely no good impression of Xu Yaxin. Now, seeing Xu Yaxin still recklessly making fun of him and Li Ling, he was instantly enraged and glared fiercely at her.
"Why are you so meddlesome? What Li Ling and I do is none of your business! I suggest you mind your own business first!"
Xu Yaxin didn't expect that her harmless joke would provoke such a strong reaction from Qian Duowen. Her smile vanished instantly, and she angrily cursed at Qian Duowen.
"Qian Duowen! What do you mean by that? If you don't want me to joke, just say so. Why talk to me like that!"
Qian Duowen glanced at Xu Yaxin with disgust, not even bothering to reply, and turned to walk away. Just then, Li Ling, who had been standing by the door, also came over and glared at Xu Yaxin with a look of utter disgust.
"Qian Duowen is right. You'd better mind your own business first. What others do is none of your concern. What kind of bad intentions are you harboring, always trying to pry into other people's affairs?"
Seeing Qian Duowen and Li Ling's inexplicable reactions, Xu Yaxin's eyes instantly turned cold. She pushed Li Ling and said angrily.
"Li Ling, Qian Duowen, what do you two mean by this? If you don't like something about me, please just say it directly. Don't say these nonsensical things; they make me feel disgusted and nauseous!"
Li Ling reached up and rubbed the spot where she had been shoved, her disgust deepening: "You still have the nerve?"
"You ask us what we don't like about you? I'd like to ask you what you don't like about us! It's one thing to do bad things yourself, but you actually try to drag us down with you! Shameless!"
Xu Yaxin's face turned pale instantly upon hearing Li Ling's words. They already knew about this? No, no, how could they know about that? Logically speaking, no one except her and William should know about it.
However, in order to appear more righteous, Xu Yaxin forced herself to suppress her guilt and angrily retorted, "What do you mean by that? When have I done anything wrong? Even if you hate me, you can't just slander me like that!"
Qian Duowen looked at Xu Yaxin with disgust, who was still denying what she had done. Just as he was about to say something, Xu Xinchen's voice came from the doorway.
"Xu Yaxin, tell me why they hate you? And why are they trying to slander you?"
Xu Yaxin froze, her face pale, and turned to look at Xu Xinchen, who was slowly walking in from outside, accompanied by Chen Ningsheng: "Lu, Lu Minshi?"
