Chapter 2213 - 2215: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi
She rushed out in a hurry without even changing her clothes. She was still wearing the outfit from home: a white blouse paired with a fishtail skirt. The blouse had romantic ruffled edges at the collar and cuffs, revealing her attractive collarbone and neck line.
Her skin was fair and delicate, a rare cool white tone. People with such fair skin always drew others’ attention to their eyes. Jiang Nuan’s eyes were as bright and dark as grapes, always shimmering, as if there were tiny hooks inside ready to capture people. When she stared intensely at someone without blinking, it always gave the impression that she was deeply affectionate.
Fu Yi felt breathless, almost fooled by her. He took a deep breath and said gravely, "The way he looks at you is not the way a regular colleague does."
??
His perception was too sharp!
Caught in a lie instantly, Jiang Nuan didn’t choose to continue arguing but cleverly shifted her gaze, her eyes like autumn water, "And what about you and that Diplomat Yu just now? They even wanted to make sweet and sour ribs for you!"
Sure enough, Fu Yi’s attention was diverted, "That’s a different matter, we’re talking about you."
Jiang Nuan spread her hands, playing rogue, arguing forcefully, "We’re not talking about two different things, we’re talking about the same thing. You’re saying that Kevin and I have an unusual relationship, so what does ’unusual relationship’ mean? Just because he likes me means we have an unusual relationship?"
"..."
"Then Xu Qingrong openly pursued you before. Can I say you two were together?" Jiang Nuan blinked, self-answering, "Of course not. Her liking you is her business. You didn’t like her back or agree to be with her, so you don’t have anything beyond a friendship. Similarly, no matter if my colleague Kevin looks at me differently like you say, I haven’t looked at him with anything other than a regular colleague’s eyes. We’re just regular colleagues! I can’t be with him. Besides, he has a girlfriend, another colleague from our research institute, so don’t say such things, or people might think I’m secretly in love with him."
This explanation was reasonable, powerful, and flawless!
Fu Yi was left speechless, even knowing she was playing tricks, essentially using sophistry to sidestep his question.
He placed his hand on the table and picked up the cup, realizing it was already empty after he drank the coffee in one gulp. He paused slightly before putting the cup back down, placing the back of his hand on the table, his voice hoarse, deep, charming and sexy, "Then why did you tell others you had a boyfriend?"
Oh, someone wants to settle scores. Just as well, she had some scores to settle too. Jiang Nuan wasn’t nervous in the least; calm and collected, she asked in return, "I only ever told the housekeeper living opposite my house that I had a boyfriend. That was a misunderstanding; she asked about my boyfriend, and I was too lazy to explain, so I just casually replied, and she assumed I had a boyfriend. Do you know her?"
Fu Yi locked eyes with her, Jiang Nuan’s eyes gleamed like a fox that had stolen some oil. He shifted his position, his back resting comfortably against the chair, not at all flustered as Jiang Nuan expected him to be after being exposed, calmly saying, "Caught, huh? I hurt my leg and needed a place to recuperate. Mahali’s scenery is nice and there are fewer people, so there are fewer complications here."
"Huanya is nice too, a seaside city and vacation spot without leaving the country!" Huanya is a vacation spot in Hua Country that Fu Yi was trying to bluff through. She was so annoyed.
