Chapter 138: Chapter 137 Protecting the Little Sister?
Su Xuejiao looked at Qin Tian with dissatisfaction and when Qin Tian looked back at her, she stuck out her tongue and made a face at him.
"Your reverse psychology won’t work on me, if you want me to cook, I simply won’t," Qin Tian said with a grin, turning his gaze to Murong Fei. "Ms. Fei," he continued, "I’m just being honest, haha, the dishes you made today really suited my taste, hehe, and the best part is they’re not spicy."
As he spoke, Qin Tian began to eat with gusto.
Upon hearing Qin Tian’s unusually complimentary words, a faintly noticeable smile flashed across Murong Fei’s face as she slightly bowed her head, silent.
But Su Xuejiao, having heard Qin Tian’s last remark, seemed to have an epiphany, "Sis, the reason you told me not to add chili peppers was because of..."
Before she could finish, Murong Fei’s expression dramatically changed, and she immediately pulled Su Xuejiao towards the kitchen, saying as she did, "Why are you being so chatty today? Stop talking and take this soup to the table!"
In the kitchen, Murong Fei glared at Su Xuejiao with a warning look as if to say I know what you’re about to say, and don’t you dare.
"Hehe, Sis, could it be that you..."
Seeing Murong Fei’s embarrassed and blushing expression, Su Xuejiao, always the gossip, became even more excited, "Sis, you’re blushing, hehe..."
"I’m wearing too many clothes, it’s hot," Murong Fei quickly explained with her head down.
"I don’t believe it, you clearly like..."
"Stop talking nonsense, okay!"
Murong Fei hastily interrupted Su Xuejiao’s words and glanced nervously towards the dining room, afraid that Qin Tian might hear a bit of their conversation.
She covered Su Xuejiao’s mouth with her hand and warned, "You’re not allowed to gossip, got it? If you dare to talk nonsense again, do you believe I’ll have Grandpa lock you up in school for a whole semester?"
With her mouth covered, Su Xuejiao made a pitiful face, her beautiful eyes twinkling as she looked at Murong Fei and nodded gently, "Mhm, mhm."
However, when Murong Fei let go of her, Su Xuejiao still couldn’t help but stare at her curiously, her lips revealing a mischievous smile.
"You’re still laughing!"
Murong Fei pretended as if she was going to hit her and whispered, "Don’t make wild guesses, there’s nothing going on. Do you think I like him? Xuejiao, you’ve seen the men who’ve pursued me in the past, isn’t each one better than him? Was I interested in any of them? Do you think I would take a liking to anything about him, a bodyguard with a lowly status?"
Murong Fei’s question left Su Xuejiao somewhat taken aback.
Caught up in her gossip, reminded by Murong Fei’s words, Su Xuejiao started to think there might be truth to her sister’s rationale.
This Qin Tian, being lecherous and having such a poisonous tongue, and as a lowly bodyguard with average looks, would her sister fancy him? She would rather believe her sister was a lesbian than believe her sister could fall for Qin Tian.
"Hehe, you should have said that earlier, Sis. I mean, you definitely wouldn’t drop your standards like that. This Qin Tian, he’s just meant to be a lifelong bachelor. It would be a stroke of luck if he could even get a wife. Compared to my sister, haha, he doesn’t even qualify as a toad," said Su Xuejiao as she carried the soup out then looked at Qin Tian with disdain once she reached the dining room.
The dinner table grew quiet again. Seeing Su Xuejiao’s sullen face, and remembering the phone call she had had earlier with Murong Bei, Murong Fei asked, "Xuejiao, when you called Grandpa earlier, did he say something to you? You looked so agitated."
Murong Fei’s question only made Su Xuejiao more displeased, as she glared at Qin Tian and sulkily said, "Sis, you have to help me. Grandpa said he wants to pick me up to live at home, not at the school anymore."
"Ah?" Murong Fei was surprised. "Haven’t you always wanted to live at home? Why are you unhappy about it now?"
"I don’t mean going back to that home, Grandpa wants me to live here, with you."
"You don’t want to live with me?"
"It’s not that, the thing is..." While speaking, Su Xuejiao huffed at Qin Tian again and said, "The thing is, Grandpa said to let this stinky Qin Tian be my bodyguard, to accompany me to school from now on..."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Murong Fei and Qin Tian almost exclaimed in unison.
"Accompany you to school?!"
Both of them repeated the same phrase, then looked at each other, Murong Fei immediately felt a bit awkward.
"Come on, your grandpa is being way too autocratic, isn’t he? He didn’t even ask for my opinion before deciding I should go back to school as a bodyguard?"
Qin Tian was really frustrated, thinking to himself that as the Dragon King, he was actually supposed to protect a high school student? Wouldn’t people laugh their heads off if that got out?
"Hmph, stinky Qin Tian, if you’re reluctant, I’m even more reluctant. You’re acting like you’re the one losing out!" Su Xuejiao glared at Qin Tian and said discontentedly.
"President Fei, I definitely don’t agree to this." Qin Tian turned his head to Murong Fei and said, "This girl has neither figure nor looks, who would lay a hand on her, anyway? Does she even need protection?"
"Stinky Qin Tian, you’re asking for a beating!"
No sooner had Qin Tian finished speaking than Su Xuejiao was already swinging her arms to hit him.
But her hand had barely lifted when it was blocked by Murong Fei: "Xuejiao, behave like a lady for once, sit back down!"
After scolding Su Xuejiao, Murong Fei then said to Qin Tian, "This decision must have been made by my grandpa on the spur of the moment, I also... didn’t know about it. How about this, after we finish eating, I’ll give him a call to find out exactly what his plan is."
The three of them hastily finished their meal, and then Murong Fei took out her cellphone to make a call.
But before making the call, she turned to Qin Tian and said, "Qin Tian, could you... wash the dishes?"
"Uh..."
Qin Tian was momentarily stunned, two women and one man, and after eating, the man is expected to do the dishes?
However, when he looked up and saw Murong Fei’s gentle gaze, his heart softened, alright then, the future Mrs. Boss had issued an order, so wash them he would!
"Hehe, serves you right!"
Seeing Qin Tian finishing the dishes, Su Xuejiao appeared to revel in his misfortune.
Qin Tian turned and pointed at her: "You little rascal, don’t celebrate too soon!"
"Yay yay yay, I am happy, so what, huh, are you going to hit me? Hit me then..." Su Xuejiao danced in front of Qin Tian, making a cute and silly face.
By the time Qin Tian finished the dishes, Murong Fei came downstairs, her face serious.
"What’s wrong?"
Seeing the expression on Murong Fei’s face, both Qin Tian and Su Xuejiao gathered around her.
After a moment of silence, Murong Fei said, "My grandpa was originally going to Europe for negotiations, but after visiting the other company, he found out that the company has a mafia background, and that they are powerful and have already infiltrated Zhonghai City."
As she spoke, Murong Fei’s gaze fixed on Qin Tian and continued, "This time my grandpa refused to cooperate with them and took a tough stance, which could have offended them. We’ve received information that the company’s influence in Zhonghai City might target my family to force my grandpa into cooperation, so, for precaution, grandpa hopes you can help protect Xuejiao."
