Chapter 100: I think they changed the locks.



Ruan Cha narrowed her eyes, "Don't swear, or I'll tell your brother."

Xiao Peinian looked aggrieved, clearly somewhat afraid of Ruan Cha.

Song Jing's camera briefly panned across Zang Mingqi's face, but Xiao Peinian, with his sharp eyes, recognized him immediately.

"Wait..." He swallowed the words that were about to come out.

"Zang Mingqi! Brother Qi! Isn't that Brother Qi?!"

His friends behind him cheered excitedly, "It really is Brother Qi! Alive!"

Song Jing clicked his tongue, his eyebrows dancing with excitement, almost as if he were wagging his tail.

"Turn the camera around quickly so I can see Brother Qi!" Xiao Peinian urged.

Song Jing cleared his throat. "Brother Qi is just my sister's friend, so it's not convenient for him to show his face."

His arrogant demeanor made Yan Shu want to slap him.

"No way, Jing-ge! You're my brother, okay? Or at least I can call you grandpa, alright?"

Even young boys this age can be fans of celebrities, including Song Jing and Xiao Peinian.

Zang Mingqi previously participated in a game variety show, where he showcased his skills and successfully gained fans of Xiao Peinian and Song Jing.

Song Jing said, "Since that's the case, then let me show you."

Zang Mingqi smiled as he looked at Xiao Peinian shouting on his phone screen.

"Hello, Pei Nian, I am Zang Mingqi!"

"Ahhh, this is the first time I've thought my name sounds so good! Qi-ge! Qi-ge, I'm your fan. Let's team up and play games together next time. You can carry me to victory."

Zang Mingqi nodded. "Okay."

Shiloh's head popped into the frame. "Go play somewhere else, you little brat."

Xiao Peinian was taken aback. "Brother Luo, what are you doing here? Oh my god, you're not really dating Sister Song Jing, are you?"

"How can you talk like that? We're friends. Can't I come to her house for dinner?"

Xiao Peinian looked incredulous and then said, "Song Jing, we're friends too. Can I come to your house for dinner? Right now, I can bring my own bowl!"

"Get out! Who said we're friends? You're not allowed to come here!"

After saying that, Song Jing arrogantly hung up the video call.

He really made a name for himself today. When he goes to school tomorrow, he'll probably be the envy of everyone.

Meanwhile, Xiao Peinian, still indignant, called his sister Xiao Mingyin.

"Sis, I just saw Brother Luo at my classmate's house."

"What's so strange about that?"

Xiao Peinian said, "The key point is that my friend's older sister is Yan Qiao! Brother Luo is definitely after Yan Qiao!"

Xiao Mingyin paused, "Yan Qiao?"

"Yes, didn't we say before that Sister Yuejin was going to marry Brother Luo? But I feel like Brother Luo doesn't seem to like Sister Yuejin."

Xiao Mingyin lightly scolded, "Don't talk nonsense."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Mingyin called Shen Yuejin again.

Have you been in contact with Shiloh recently?

"No, I can't find him every time I go to his house."

Shen Yue is currently feeling troubled, especially by what Yan Qiao said last time, which left a shadow in her heart.

If the marriage doesn't go through, wouldn't she become a laughing stock?

Xiao Mingyin said, "My brother saw Xi Luo at Yan Qiao's house today. He even came over! I bet they're already together, right?"

"Impossible!" Shen Yuejin's voice became shrill.

"What good will it do to say it's impossible? What if these two get married and the invitations are delivered to you? You'll regret it then and have nowhere to cry."

Shen Yuejin slammed down the phone and went upstairs crying to find Zhou Yuanxi.

"Mother!"

Zhou Yuanxi said impatiently, "Are you trying to call back my soul?!"

She hasn't had a good time lately either, especially after Yan Qiao and Xi Luo broke off their engagement.

Her entire family was kicked out of the company, and they call her every day to complain.

Recently, we haven't been able to find anyone who sank the boat; we haven't seen a soul around all day.

"Stop worrying about my brother, worry about me! When will my wedding with Xi Luo finally be on the agenda?"

Zhou Yuanxi rolled her eyes at her, "Have you no shame? No young woman is so eager to get married. Your grandfather and father will decide your marriage. You don't need to be in such a hurry."

Shen Yuejin looked unhappy. "If I don't hurry, Xi Luo will be snatched away by someone else."

"He's a grown man, who could possibly steal him away?"

"It's Yan Qiao! Yin Yin said that Xi Luo is having dinner at Yan Qiao's house right now. I wonder if it's a formal meeting with the parents. Could they already be talking about marriage?"

Zhou Yuanxi remained calm, "Impossible. If Xi Luo were to get married, he would definitely need Third Master's approval. Third Master wouldn't even look at Yan Qiao's background."

After saying that, she scoffed again.

"However, Yan Qiao's methods are quite sophisticated."

She was heavily criticized before, but after appearing on a reality show, she completely turned things around.

This girl is incredibly lucky.

"She likes Xiluo, so why don't you just give Xiluo to her?"

"Mom! He's my fiancé, why should I give in?"

Zhou Yuanxi laughed, "Yuejin, you're being short-sighted. What's so great about Xi Luo? He's just a spoiled brat. How can he compare to Xi Wen, the second wife of the Xi family? She came back from studying abroad and joined the company. She's a top student, refined and handsome."

Shen Yuejin was not optimistic and curled her lips, "But he is from the second wife's family. This company of the Xi family belongs to Xi Luo's parents."

"Fool, don't look at who owns the company, look at who's in charge. If you marry Xi Wen, Xi Luo will have to respectfully call you sister-in-law and bow down to you. It's still unknown who will end up with you."

In any case, compared to the unreliable Xi Luo, Zhou Yuanxi is more optimistic about Xi Wen.

...

Xi Luo and the others stayed at Yan Qiao's house until dinner.

Xiao Peinian promptly added Song Jing on WeChat, went online, and asked him to recruit Zang Mingqi.

Song Jing was itching to play, and with Yan Shu's permission, he teamed up with Zang Mingqi and Xi Luo, and they played games all afternoon.

Zang Mingqi is indeed very skilled; he carried two noobs and still managed to win easily.

"Alright, stop playing around, go wash your hands and come eat."

The group then rushed to the restroom to wash their hands and sat down in the same seats they had used at noon that day.

Ruan Cha felt a little embarrassed after getting two free meals from the restaurant.

"Uncle and Aunt, thank you so much for your hard work and for troubling you all throughout the day."

Yan Shu was delighted and said with a smile, "You are Qiao Qiao's friends. Auntie is so happy that you could come and visit. Please come often. Our home is simple, but we will make sure you have a good meal!"

Xi Luo and the others weren't shy at all; some were serving rice, some were carrying dishes, and some were pouring drinks, keeping themselves very busy.

Before everyone had even fully sat down, they heard the sound of the door locking and all turned their gaze toward the door.

Meanwhile, Yan Yaoyao, who was outside the door, was live-streaming on her phone, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Why can't I insert the key?

[How could the door stay open for so long?]

[This key won't go in at all. Could I have gotten the wrong key?]

[666, how could you not recognize your own house key?]

I think they changed the locks.

[Didn't Yan Yaoyao say that her adoptive parents welcomed her home? They even left her a room, so why did they change the locks so quickly?]

Yan Yaoyao awkwardly put away her keys. "I probably brought the wrong keys. Looks like I won't be able to surprise my parents. I'll just have to ring the doorbell."
