He walked too fast, and by the time Ming Xiaoxiao realized what was happening, it was too late to catch up. She could only stand awkwardly in place with Qu Wenbin, glancing at Shen Xinghe and Xie Lin with tears welling up in her eyes.
Especially Xie Lin, the two of them clearly had a romantic storyline later on, and Xie Lin is belittling her like this now, he will regret it sooner or later!
She must never forgive Xie Lin again!
Now that the annoying person was finally gone, Shen Xinghe was in a pretty good mood. As for Ming Xiaoxiao's look just now, he couldn't be bothered to care.
They even kindly reminded him, "I heard he used to be quite popular at school? Classmates, what's so special about someone who's at the bottom of the class that you like?"
Ming Xiaoxiao was so angry she wanted to retort, "That's not how it is..."
"It's not worth it!" Another chorus of agreement interrupted all of Ming Xiaoxiao's rebuttals.
Several bolder girls put their hands to their mouths like megaphones and shouted back, "Babies! We won't go to the trash can to pick up our boyfriends, don't worry!"
Shen Lian stared in disbelief: "They dare to call Shen Dingliu's son in public? They're even bolder than me."
Xie Li pulled Xie Lin along, "Let's go, let's go."
She didn't want to stay here any longer and argue with Ming Xiaoxiao; it was too much of a waste of time and breath.
Although Xie Lin was confused, he naturally followed Xie Li if Xie Li wanted to leave.
Before leaving, Shen Xinghe waved to a few of the girls who were cheering the loudest, winked, and smiled affectionately with his peach blossom eyes, which immediately caused a burst of excited screams to erupt in the scene.
The group sat down at a coffee shop near the school gate. Soon the manager rushed over, put down the sign indicating the place was reserved, and prevented outsiders from entering.
Xie Lin was full of questions, "Li Li, what's going on between Pei Si and that Ming Xiaoxiao? What about your engagement?"
He clenched his fists, clearly angered by what had just happened, but his composed nature kept him in check.
Li Chen sneered: "Marriage contract? What marriage contract? That person is just a toad trying to eat swan meat, trying to scam someone by trying to climb to the moon."
Xie Li said there was no engagement, and that meant there wasn't. Li Chen had always blindly trusted Xie Li.
Chen Lian, however, slowly came to her senses and slammed her hand on the table, exclaiming, "Holy crap, you two really have a marriage agreement?"
Xie Li shook his head. "If I don't agree, then it doesn't count."
She didn't want to have anything to do with Pei Si at all; otherwise, given Ming Xiaoxiao's attitude, she would only become more shameless and cling to him in the future.
She came to Linjiang No.1 Middle School to study hard and get into Beijing University, not to date.
However, in order to answer her friends' questions, she still gave an explanation.
Xie Lin: "So you mean that Pei Si is still living with Ming Xiaoxiao even though he's engaged to you?"
Xie Li nodded: "Yes, so the two families negotiated and dissolved the engagement. The Xie family will no longer give away profits to the Pei family for the projects they cooperate on."
In fact, it wouldn't be impossible for the Xie family to take a tougher stance and withdraw their investment. In that case, the Pei family would definitely suffer the most severe losses.
However, according to Old Master Xie, Madam Pei is very good at dealing with people. The Pei family went to great lengths to find her and has done her a favor, so they can't just be completely heartless.
Shen Lian exclaimed in astonishment: "Pei Si warned you back then not to bother him—how dare he?"
It makes me so angry just thinking about it. "No, he also has an ambiguous relationship with Ming Xiaoxiao, but he refuses to admit it, saying that you're the one who's been pestering him relentlessly... That's too much!"
When Shen Lian and Xie Li were at odds, she heard a lot of bad things about Xie Li from Pei Si's underlings.
