As Qin Bai heard the increasingly absurd conversation between the two, his tense mood gradually relaxed.
Looking at Ling Xiangxue's adorable face, he would have burst out laughing if the occasion hadn't been so inappropriate.
What should have been a story of the wife catching her husband's mistress turned into a story of a wife eating steamed buns to prove her innocence.
Something felt off, but what Luo Qingyan said seemed to make sense.
So where did the problem lie?
Could it really be because of the steamed buns?
Ling Xiangxue just felt that she was having bad luck today.
Not only was he fed four steamed buns, but now he has to use this method to prove his innocence.
That's too difficult.
How come this woman in front of me has the same fetish as Qin Bai? Does she just want to watch people stuff themselves to death?
At this moment, Qin Bai stood between the two of them and silently uttered three words to Luo Qingyan.
The yandere stared at his lips in confusion, then her eyes widened in surprise.
She understood what Qin Bai wanted to say.
Especially with his nonchalant expression, Luo Qingyan began to imagine the scenario.
His mind raced.
Ten seconds later.
That little face went through countless changes of expression, finally settling on a look of fragility.
She walked past Qin Bai and stood in front of Ling Xiangxue.
He took her hand and said, "Oh dear, I was just joking with you. Look how nervous you are. Anyone who didn't know better would think you and Xiaobai really had something going on."
Ling Xiangxue: ? ? ?
Looking at the very friendly Luo Qingyan in front of him, she was completely different from before.
Was I just dreaming?
Just a second ago, I felt like this woman was going to tear me to pieces.
Why are you being so affectionate now?
"You...you're not mistaken, are you?"
"No."
"Phew, that's good. I thought I had caused Qin Bai trouble again."
"No, I'm not that petty. Xiaobai is a very good person. He never cheats on his wife."
Luo Qingyan's acting skills were still on point; she started to lie through her teeth with wide eyes.
Qin Bai stood to the side, watching the little yandere with a smile.
The Oscars owe you a golden statuette.
She's quite a good actress.
never mind.
It's better than the tense standoff we just witnessed.
If I hadn't been so quick-witted, I probably would be thinking about which cemetery would have better feng shui by now.
Luo Qingyan and Ling Xiangxue sat facing each other, just like best friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.
"How's business at the flower shop these days?"
Ling Xiangxue was still somewhat shaken from her earlier emotions, and sat there very quietly.
"We just moved here recently, so we don't have many customers yet."
“Now that it’s available, I’ll be a regular customer.”
"Okay, you're welcome."
"Are you married?"
"No."
"How could someone as beautiful as you not have a husband? And your skin looks so good."
"Really? Actually, I don't usually use makeup..."
The two gradually became more familiar with each other during their conversation.
Of course, this is all thanks to Luo Qingyan. If Ling Xiangxue were to come up with a topic, the two of them would probably sit there forever without ever finding anything to talk about.
Half an hour later.
Qin Bai pulled Luo Qingyan out of the flower shop.
"Goodbye, Ling Xiangxue. I'll come over and chat with you when I have time."
"good."
Ling Xiangxue looked at the two figures with tenderness in her eyes.
The car started moving slowly.
After leaving the street, Luo Qingyan placed one hand on Qin Bai's leg.
"Tell me honestly, what exactly happened?"
At this moment, Qin Bai remained as calm as an old dog, showing no sign of panic.
"Didn't you just ask all the questions you needed to ask?"
"How can that be the same? I still want to hear what you have to say."
In fact, when Luo Qingyan understood what Qin Bai meant by those three words, she already had a general idea.
Huang Nianling.
There's nothing special about this name.
But the memory of her bringing Huang Ping'an to the studio that day is still vivid in my mind.
The consequences of wrongly accusing Xiaobai are severe.
It's practically ceding territory and paying reparations.
At that time, their relationship had not changed substantially.
Now......
It's better to stay alert on a perfectly good day.
Therefore, when Qin Bai uttered this name, Luo Qingyan began to reflect.
Admittedly, the moment she saw Qin Bai and Ling Xiangxue's figures overlap, the little yandere felt like she was going crazy.
Fortunately, reason prevailed over impulse in the end, and he didn't say anything too extreme.
Qin Bai said calmly, "Actually, she's quite pitiful. She helped me when I was in high school. I ran into her recently, so I helped her with her younger brother and sister's schooling. It's that simple."
Luo Qingyan looked at him in surprise: "She has a younger brother and sister?"
"Yes, the younger brother's name is Xu Mingyuan, and the younger sister's name is Wensi."
"They have different surnames, so they're not related by blood?"
Qin Bai nodded and said, "She found them. She has to support their schooling with such a flower shop. Fortunately, the two children are quite sensible and help her sell flowers and such."
Luo Qingyan's guard gradually lowered.
Women are soft-hearted creatures, especially when it comes to children.
Hearing about this makes me inexplicably sad.
She continued, "What problems did you have with going to school? Have they been resolved now?"
"It's been resolved. She only recently returned to Jinshan City, so it's a bit difficult to get her school registration sorted out."
"Oh, that's good."
Luo Qingyan looked thoughtfully at a billboard by the roadside.
"Kumsan City Bank welcomes you."
She felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
