Chapter 12: If You Don’t Like It, Stay Away



Jiang Huainan was about to speak when Ji Hejin interrupted him, "I knocked, and many times."

She stared at the man in the corner with red eyes, looking a little aggrieved.

Xu Buyan felt annoyed, "You go out first, I want to talk to Jiang Huainan alone."

The door was closed, and they were alone.

Xu Buyan looked at him carefully. He was tall, wearing silver-rimmed glasses, and his temperament was as gentle as jade.

He is quiet but capable at work, aloof and restrained, and a very gentlemanly villain.

According to his observation, this kind of person is exactly the type that Liang Qingmo likes.

"What did you just say?" Xu Buyan asked again uncertainly.

"Can I intervene between you?" Jiang Huainan said in a louder voice, "Can I snatch Liang Qingmo away?"

You're cheating on me too? Xu Buyan was speechless for a moment.

Jiang Huainan seemed to be muttering to himself, but also seemed to be saying it on purpose for him to hear, "With my type, do I have a chance of winning if I pursue her?"

Isn't this nonsense? It took him a long time to figure out her preferences, and those seemed to be related to Jiang Huainan...

"Why do you like Liang Qingmo? She's just a lunatic."

Xu Buyan began to list Liang Qingmo's shortcomings, "She has a bad temper, and her enthusiasm for everyone is only short-lived..."

Jiang Huainan listened calmly, and finally interrupted him, "She has money."

"The Xu family is also rich." He paused and then said, "Has the Xu family ever treated you unfairly?"

"You know, I didn't want to have anything to do with your Xu family at the time. And didn't you always want to divorce her?"

“Is it necessary to go to this extent?”

"Do you mean to get a divorce or..." I get involved in your relationship.

"Are you serious?"

"Is it not possible?"

"Of course... no problem."

Xu Buyan turned his head and his eyes fell on the box of cigarettes on the table, which he had confiscated from Liang Qingmo. "If you let her put her focus on you, then I'll be relieved."

That’s right, he wasn’t angry nor did he care. Jiang Huainan offered himself voluntarily, and he was happy to be free.

However, he would not let him go easily, as Jiang Huainan still had to work for the Xu family.

Of course, this is simply because he doesn't want Liang Qingmo to get an advantage, and it's not because he is jealous or petty.

When Jiang Huainan came out, Ji Hejin had not left yet.

Their eyes met, and she was a little flustered, "I...I came to find Xu Buyan."

He nodded and then left, just like all their previous meetings, polite yet distant.

Xu family.

"Whose family is she from? What does she look like?" Zhang Huiyun started asking questions incessantly as soon as she returned to Xu's house early in the morning.

She had called Xu Buyan before, and he told her not to say anything or rush her, otherwise she would bring a man back, which scared her.

But not long ago, Jiang Huainan told her that Xu Buyan had a girlfriend, and he admitted it himself. Zhang Huiyun was so happy.

As long as she's a woman, it doesn't matter whether she's from the same social class or has a good education.

"Tell me about it quickly."

Xu Buyan sneered and said disapprovingly, "To be honest, she is totally unworthy of me."

"That's good, you picked it."

She knew Xu Buyan's temper well, and he never said anything that pleased anyone. Zhang Huiyun thought that no family would be willing to let their daughter marry him.

"Based on my conditions, there are many people chasing me."

Seeing Xu Buyan looking smug, Zhang Huiyun turned to Jiang Huainan and asked, "Huainan, you tell me."

Jiang Huainan hesitated for a moment, "She is very beautiful but..."

Until now he was not sure whether to say that the man was Liang Qingmo.

It was the first time Xu Buyan heard him praise a woman's beauty. He was a little surprised and suddenly remembered what he had said before, "What type do you like?"

"What stage are you guys at? When will you bring him home to see me?" Zhang Huiyun kept asking.

"Ask Jiang Huainan, he's interested."

Xu Buyan was upset, so he left Jiang Huainan behind and slipped away.

Pine and Cypress Garden.

Xu Buyan returned to find Liang Qingmo gone. After searching around, he found her on the balcony. She looked dejected, shrouded in a faint melancholy.

He suddenly remembered Jiang Huainan asking him, "Do you know who saved her? It was Zhou Qixuan."

A man who protected her unconditionally when she just returned to the Liang family and stayed with her for a long time afterwards.

So, the wounds left behind haven't healed yet?

He walked over and found that she was holding a cigarette in her hand. The cigarette had already burned between her fingers, but she was still unaware of it and was just staring blankly at somewhere in front of her.

Hearing footsteps, Liang Qingmo slowly turned around. Seeing that it was Xu Buyan, he was startled at first, then smiled, his whole face brightening up. "Are you back?"

She put out the cigarette in her hand and threw it into the trash can next to her, then took out another one from the cigarette box.

Just as she put it in her mouth and was about to light it, Xu Buyan reached out and pulled the cigarette out of her mouth, frowning and saying, "You smoke when you're feeling well. You really think your life is too long."

Liang Qingmo didn't get angry, but laughed heartily, "Then should I buy insurance for a few more years?"

He couldn't tell which one was her true heart, but he was annoyed by this inappropriate joke.

I have always been concerned about what she is thinking and what she is doing. If I can't see her, I will miss her...

He felt increasingly sick.

"Can this thing really relieve boredom?" Xu Buyan took the lighter from her hand, lit it, put it in his mouth and took a puff, then choked and coughed.

Liang Qingmo snatched the cigarette away and said, "If you don't know how to do it, don't try to be so stubborn." Suddenly smelling something, she frowned and asked, "Have you been drinking?"
