Chapter 254 Your Cousin is So Good
“Nian Ke,” Yan Buyu carefully organized her thoughts, “could Huo Chen be a fraud?”
"Huh?" Qin Nianke was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand with a smile, "How could that be? He's great, he's the boyfriend I carefully selected."
“But you chose the ones you talked about before,” Yan Buyu said.
"..." Qin Nianke thought for a moment, opened her mouth and then closed it again, finally speaking again, "He is different from others."
Without saying a word, only one thought crossed his mind: It's over.
But her friend was so engrossed in her own thoughts that no amount of persuasion could change her mind.
However, Qin Nian has one particularly good point.
Once she sees through the true nature of someone, no matter how invested or how deeply she loved them before, she can detach herself from them in an instant without any lingering attachments.
Without saying a word, he told her, "Just take good care of yourself."
"Let's go hiking this weekend!" Qin Nianke opened her phone and pointed to a picture of a temple on the screen. "It's very effective; you'll get wealth if you pray for it, love if you pray for it, and a child if you pray for it."
Yan Buyu glanced at it; it was a temple located in the suburbs that had recently become very popular due to the influence of online celebrities.
She asked, "Is there a cable car to the top of the mountain?"
Qin Nianke: "No."
"I'm not going." The reply was swift and decisive.
Qin Nianke looked at her speechlessly, "You're so lazy. It's not that high, you can just climb up. Miss, you have to walk up to worship Buddha to be sincere."
"Oh, I'm not going."
So for the next half day, she suffered Qin Nianke's ultimate tormenting methods.
"Stop, stop, stop! If I don't agree, will you do this every day until the weekend?" Yan Buyu was getting a headache from her nagging.
Qin Nianke nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"Okay, okay, you win, I'll go, alright?"
Qin Nianke hadn't even been happy for two seconds.
Yan Buyu then said, "It just so happens that your cousin said he wanted to go on a date with me this weekend, so let's have him come hiking with us."
Her smile froze on her face. "Can I back out? You shouldn't go."
"Oh, no." Yan Buyu patted Qin Nianke's head happily. "Don't be nervous, little Nianke, we're all family."
Clinging to the last glimmer of hope, Qin Nianke asked, "Can I tell my cousin that I won't bring him?"
Without saying a word, she raised her phone and pressed the voice message button on WeChat. "Come on, tell Brother Jingxu."
Qin Nianke suddenly opened her eyes wide. Was this a voice message?
No! This is her guillotine.
She only took a tenth of a second to think before blurting out, "Cousin, Buyu and I are thinking of going hiking this weekend. Would you do me the honor of coming along?"
Yan Buyu's shoulders twitched as he laughed; Qin Nianke's fawning and obsequious manner was quite amusing.
"You're still laughing? I'm all sweaty." Qin Nianke patted her chest. "Why aren't you afraid of him?"
"Why be afraid of him? Your cousin is such a good person."
Qin Nianke looked up at the sky and sighed, "Sure enough, best friends will all think that the other person has a problem with their choice of partner."
Si Jingxu came to have lunch with Yan Buyu and took her directly to his private club.
Qin Nianke was included as well.
"Brother Jingxu, why are you being so secretive? Didn't you say you were going to eat at the school cafeteria? Why did you come here?"
She asked him questions the whole way without saying a word, but Si Jingxu just smiled and told her to wait.
Qin Nianke silently complained in her heart.
Pushing open the door, Yan Buyu stood there stunned for a long time.
A food counter was added next to the dining table, with a stove used for eating street food skewers on it, still steaming.
“Let’s go. We didn’t eat well last time. I guarantee the taste and hygiene of what I have here,” Si Jingxu said, placing his hand on her lower back and gently supporting her. “Don’t just stand there. Go pick out what you like to eat.”
Yan Buyu walked over in a daze. The food counter here was a perfect replica of the restaurant she had taken Si Jingxu to before.
However, as he said, hygiene and safety are guaranteed.
Raw and cooked meatballs are kept separate, as are meat and vegetable meatballs; these meatballs contain no artificial additives or high-tech processing.
It was all her favorite pork, beef, and seafood.
"Nianke, come quick, it smells so good." Yan Buyu stood in front of the food counter with a plate, but her friend didn't come.
Si Jingxu glanced at the person still standing at the door and said, "You think you can get full just by standing there and smelling the aroma? Go eat."
"Ah, oh, okay." Qin Nianke quickly went over.
She wasn't afraid that her cousin wouldn't move; she was simply envious.
It's obvious that he cleaned these things for her because he was worried about hygiene after she took her cousin out to eat at a street stall.
Her cousin clearly doesn't care about anyone and doesn't like to concern himself with anything, yet he can be this thoughtful.
As for Huo Chen, when they first got together, he was very caring towards her.
Later, when he got busy with work, he would often neglect her.
He said he didn't care.
But what girl doesn't want her man to cherish her dearly?
Just like her cousin did with Bu Yu.
"Eat up, Nianke. Don't you love cilantro beef? Eat up." Yan Buyu grabbed a big handful and gave it to her. Then she turned to Si Jingxu and said, "Brother Jingxu, how about we treat everyone to this next time we have a get-together?"
Her older brother has definitely never eaten these things before.
I want them to try it too.
Si Jingxu raised an eyebrow and came over, "Sure, why not? Do you want a drink? I made you some plum juice."
"Drink!" Yan Buyu picked up a skewer of shrimp and held it to Si Jingxu's lips. "Your chef has just the right amount of spiciness. I can handle it and it's not too spicy. I like it."
Si Jingxu ate the shrimp from her hand, his eyes gentle, "As long as my little feather likes it."
"Nianke, do you want some noodles?" Yan Buyu asked, looking at Qin Nianke who had been silent for a long time, only eating with her head down.
"Okay," Qin Nianke replied sullenly, "I also want to eat cilantro beef."
"I'll go get it for you."
Si Jingxu couldn't stop them, and Yan Buyu had already gotten up.
He frowned at Qin Nianke, his expression different from his usual fear of her. "Qin Nianke, who bullied you?"
Qin Nianke looked up. Was she hallucinating? Was her cousin concerned about her?
"Speak," Si Jingxu said impatiently.
"Ah, no, no, nobody bullied me," Qin Nianke whispered. "Cousin, how about we go hiking this weekend?"
"Go ahead, you've already stolen my girlfriend away, I have to keep an eye on her." Si Jingxu glanced at her, "If you have something to say, say it, don't be stupid and let others bully you again."
They're relatives of the Si family after all; it'll be a laughing stock if word gets out.
"I understand, cousin." Qin Nianke lowered her head, feeling that she was being a bit pathetic.
I'm used to my cousin's cold and sarcastic remarks, so when he occasionally shows me a little concern, I actually feel like crying.
I had a hearty lunch and was in a good mood without saying a word.
On her way back to school, she passed a shopping mall, turned her head and stared in disbelief.
In the crowd, Song Jingyi, dressed in a black suit, strolled slowly, carrying a pink paper bag, his tattoos particularly noticeable.
Behind him, Chen Mo was carrying countless bags in his hands.
