Chapter 1656: Romantic
Xiao Ying looked at Cen Xi and replied, “She’s studying there and there’s someone taking care of her. You have to rest well. If the little one comes, she’ll disturb you.”
Cen Xi pursed her lips, feeling a little choked up.
Her sister was always considerate of her. Actually, she knew very well that her sister had not brought Little Cutie over because she was worried that Qiao Yanze would not like her.
Although he knew that his sister was not the person who had really hurt him back then, his sister had been sent to him by Ba Li at the beginning.
When he saw his sister, he would think of how miserable the Qiao family had been back then.
Cen Xi was sandwiched between the two of them and could only try to maintain the peace, but she would not force Qiao Yanze to do anything.
The injuries and pain he had suffered back then made her heart ache.
Cen Xi held Xiao Ying’s hand, guilt appearing on her cold and charming face. “Sister, I’m sorry.”
Xiao Ying patted the back of Cen Xi’s hand. “Why are you apologizing? I only hope that you’re doing well. Seeing Young Master Qiao dote on you so much, I can’t be happier for you.”
Xiao Ying sat Cen Xi on the swing. “I’ll go make some food for you. You can stay in the sun for a while more.”
…
When Qiao Yanze returned, he saw the sisters sitting in the yard.
Xiao Ying sat beside Cen Xi, picking food for her as she watched her eat.
Her gaze was unusually gentle.
Cen Xi’s mood had been unstable recently, but after Xiao Ying came, a smile appeared on her lips.
Qiao Yanze did not disturb the warm time the sisters had alone. He went upstairs to the study.
After Cen Xi finished eating, she chatted with Xiao Ying for a while in the garden.
“Sister, I’ll get the butler to prepare a room for you…”
Before Cen Xi could finish, Xiao Ying shook her head. “I’ve already booked a room at the hotel. My luggage is in the hotel.”
Cen Xi furrowed her eyebrows. “Sister, how can you stay in a hotel when you’re already here? Are you worried about what Yanze would say? I’ll call him now…”
Xiao Ying held Cen Xi, who was about to call, back as a smile appeared on her exquisite and beautiful face. “I’m the one who wants to stay in the hotel. Xiao Xi, I used to living alone in the past. I’m afraid I won’t be used to staying here.”
…
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ying had accompanied Cen Xi for nearly ten days.
Cen Xi’s morning sickness had gotten better.
Tang Xi had been discharged from the hospital and called to invite Qiao Yanze and Cen Xi to the gathering.
Ling Hui found out that Cen Xi’s sister had come to the capital and asked Cen Xi to bring her along.
The gathering was held at a high-end clubhouse in the capital.
When Qiao Yanze, Cen Xi and Xiao Ying arrived, there were already many people sitting in the room.
Because Cen Xi was pregnant and Tang Xi had just been discharged from the hospital and his body had not fully recovered yet, all of the young men who were present were not allowed to smoke. Some of them were addicted to smoking and had a lollipop in their mouths.
Most of the young men who came tonight had brought female companions.
Only Young Master Qin was single. He was watching Tang Xi and Ling Hui display their affection publicly angrily when he suddenly saw Xiao Ying coming in from the corner of his eye.
Even Qiao Yanze had been smitten by Xiao Ying before. She was extremely charming.
She had a pair of naturally charming fox eyes with a mole at the corner of her eye. Her nose was delicate and her lips were pink. The most important thing was her face shape. It was flawless and her skin was as smooth and delicate as porcelain.
Young Master Qin widened his eyes and the lollipop in his mouth fell to the ground.
“F*ck, why have I been so lucky recently? The women I’ve met are all so beautiful.” Young Master Qin had had many girlfriends while he was abroad. He thought that all of them were beautiful and charming, but after he returned to the capital, he saw the Queen, Gu Meng, Cen Xi, Ling Hui… and the woman he had just seen. Although they were all different types, they were all beautiful.
Tang Xi followed Young Master Qin’s gaze and glanced at Xiao Ying.
He cursed in her heart.
It seemed like Qiao Third Young Master loved Miss Cen to the core. He had hated Xiao Ying’s face in the past, but now, he could be in the same space as his eldest sister-in-law.
When Ling Hui saw Cen Xi and her sister coming over, she hurriedly stood up to welcome them.
Cen Xi saw the diamond ring on Ling Hui’s finger and asked with a smile, “Sister Ling Hui, did Young Master Tang propose to you?”
Cen Xi still remembered that it had been Tang Xi’s idea when Qiao Yanze proposed to her.
Tang Xi was a romantic person.
“That fellow is very cunning. The moment he woke up, he put the ring on my finger.”
“He finally got his wish and can marry his beloved goddess,” Cen Xi said as she introduced, “This is my sister, Xiao Ying.”
Ling Hui and Xiao Ying shook hands and got to know each other.
Young Master Qin walked over and stood beside Ling Hui. He looked at Xiao Ying with charming eyes. “Beauty, let’s get to know each other too. My surname is Qin. You can call me Qin Zi.”
Xiao Ying looked at Young Master Qin and shook his hand. “It’s nice to meet you.”
Young Master Qin tried to hit on Xiao Ying, but he found that although Xiao Ying looked very fairy-like and otherworldly, she was very mysterious. No matter what he asked, her attitude was indifferent and polite, making it impossible to see through her.
Young Master Qin invited Xiao Ying to play pool, play games, sing, and play cards. He realized that she knew everything and was even better than him, but he could not see any trace of a romantic aura from her.
After Xiao Ying went to the washroom, Young Master Qin could not help but say to Qiao Yanze, “I say, this older sister-in-law of yours is really secretive. Why does she know everything? I wanted to pursue her, but I feel that I’m not worthy of her. I don’t know what kind of man can deal with her.”
Qiao Yanze and Tang Xi glanced at Young Master Qin and Tang Xi laughed. “At least you know your place.”
…
Xiao Ying went to the washroom outside the room.
It had been a long time since she had played like this.
Some things were imprinted deep in her bones. Although she had not touched them for a long time, she was still familiar with them.
Since she was young, she had learned how to capture a man’s heart, so she knew many things.
After a few years of peaceful life, she seemed to have forgotten what kind of person she used to be.
Xiao Ying returned to the room and the lights in the room dimmed the moment she sat down.
The sound of fireworks suddenly sounded outside the French windows.
Xiao Ying followed the people in the room to the French windows and looked outside.
Dazzling sparks bloomed in the air, as colorful and beautiful as crystal stones.
It went on for nearly half an hour.
When the last set of fireworks bloomed, there was a confession: LH, I Love You.
Ling Hui froze for a moment before she realized that the fireworks outside for nearly half an hour were all for her.
She looked at the man beside her but he had left. Ling Hui looked around and did not see him.
Ling Hui was about to look for Tang Xi when Gu Meng and Cen Xi suddenly came over and covered her eyes. “Sister Ling Hui, don’t be angry. Young Master Tang asked us to do this.”
