Chapter 89 - 90, why haven’t you taken him under your wing?

Chapter 89: 90, why haven’t you taken him under your wing?

An Xiaoyu blushed.

"Gu Xiaobei, stop messing around, we’re at work now!"

"At work? It’s already lunchtime!"

Uh... how did the morning go by so fast?

"Come on, today Qianqian said she’ll treat us to a meal and improve our diet!"

Just as they were about to leave, they noticed a bright red figure at the entrance of their design studio.

An Xiaoyu was startled, Li Xin... why is she here?

Following her, another person appeared.

Unsurprisingly, it was Qin Zixiao. His face was still handsome, but the look he gave as his eyes swept across An Xiaoyu’s face... was utterly indifferent, as if she was nothing more than a stranger.

At that moment, An Xiaoyu felt a tightness in her chest.

Li Xin also saw An Xiaoyu, her meticulously made-up face revealing a smile. Then, as if declaring her territory, she looped her arm through Qin Zixiao’s and greeted An Xiaoyu.

"Hi, Xiaoyu! How have you been lately?"

"Yes, I’m doing great!"

"Today, Zixiao and I are here to distribute wedding invitations. Next Saturday, the 12th, Zixiao and I are getting engaged. You must come to our engagement party!"

Saying this, Li Xin pulled an invitation out of her bag.

At that moment, Bai Mingxuan came out.

"Wow, speak of the devil and he shall appear. Alright, we’ll take the invitation, we’ll definitely be there."

As he spoke, he took the invitation.

Li Xin smiled at An Xiaoyu and handed her a fiery red invitation embossed with golden letters.

"Xiaoyu, this one is for you, make sure you don’t miss it!"

An Xiaoyu managed to squeeze out a smile.

"I’ll definitely be there!"

She didn’t look at Qin Zixiao again. Why bother... looking for trouble?

"Xiaobei, Qianqian, Zimo, we should leave now! Any later and there won’t be any seats left!"

After saying that, An Xiaoyu called everyone together and they headed towards the staircase.

Once they entered the private room, the girls started chattering excitedly.

"Xiaoyu, I feel like Li Xin is quite hostile towards you."

"Exactly, she went too far last time! Could it be... she subconsciously sees you as a love rival?"

"By the way, Xiaoyu, how do you know Mr. Qin and for how long? You two seem very familiar!"

An Xiaoyu rubbed her forehead. Indeed, where there are women, there’s gossip!

"I’ve known Qin Zixiao since I was nine years old! We used to live in the same neighborhood, so you could say we were neighbors!"

"Wow, since nine, does that count as childhood sweethearts?"

"No wonder Mr. Qin’s fiancée would deliberately target Xiaoyu, could it be... jealousy?"

"It’s no surprise, Xiaoyu and Mr. Qin have too many memories that belong only to them, over a decade of time... If my fiancé had such a childhood sweetheart, I’d be jealous too!"

"Exactly, Xiaoyu, a rare childhood sweetheart, why didn’t you snag him for yourself?"

"..."

An Xiaoyu was speechless.

Then, Mo Qianqian spoke up again.

"Xiaoyu, Mr. Qin seemed very concerned about you, last time in the elevator when you were taken away by that person, Mr. Shen’s face changed, and he ran after you so quickly, Xu Jiahui and I couldn’t even catch up to him! Could it be..."

Gu Xiaobei’s eyes lit up.

"Oh, my goodness, Xiaoyu, could it be... Mr. Qin has feelings for you! Could he be reluctantly forced into a marriage? But in his heart, the person he truly loves is you?"
