Chapter 176: 176: What brings you here today?
“That’s why I always ask you to be nicer to me. Who knows when I might die, where will you find such a good cosiness then?”
“Get lost! Stay away from me!” Ning Yanan kicked Qin Youxuan off the couch, “Why have you become so shameless recently? I can’t even recognise you.”
What did she mean by recently? Wasn’t she always shameless?
Qin Youxuan climbed up from the ground with a smug smile and sat back on the couch, “Tell me, I’ve been alright for days, what kind of wind blew you here today?”
Admittance to Yujing Villa wasn’t easy for everyone. However, Dan Hanjie, worrying she might be bored, never stopped Ning Yanan from coming in.
Yet whenever Qin Youxuan asked her over, Ning Yanan claimed she was busy with the newspaper office, saying that since Qin Youxuan was fine, she wouldn’t come.
Yet, here she was today.
“Speaking of this riles me up. I don’t know what’s happening recently, but rich people are stirring up trouble, that’s what it’s like being a journalist. Whenever there’s a big event, we can’t have a break. Just as the news about Mr. Jinchen was calming down, new gossip from the Meng family came out. Look at my panda eyes and guess how many days I have had without proper sleep!”
Ning Yanan lashed out, venting all her grievances.
“Butler, could you prepare two cups of honey pomelo tea for us, please?” Qin Youxuan turned her head to look at the butler, “Let’s have a drink and cool down a bit!”
“Finally, there’s a bit of conscience in you!”
The butler was very efficient and soon, two cups of honey pomelo tea were served.
Qin Youxuan passed a cup to Ning Yanan, picked up another one for herself, and took a small sip.
“Mr. Jiang Jinchen, is it Jiang Jinchen you’re talking about?” Qin Youxuan blinked her cat-like eyes, and casually asked.
“Who else could it be other than that ladies’ man? You might not know, but the most attractive man in Fico City is none other than him. He changes women faster than he changes clothes…” Ning Yanan complained non-stop the moment Jiang Jinchen’s name was mentioned.
“Isn’t that a good thing for you? You wouldn’t lack news even during the offseason.”
“If it weren’t for the fact that he fooled around with our female colleagues with different women every time, I’d be willing to thank his whole family!”
“Pfft”
Qin Youxuan spat out a mouthful of tea.
“Hey! hey! hey! Show some manners, please!” Ning Yanan nearly got spat on. She immediately started jumping up and down with indignation.
“Cough cough…”
Qin Youxuan’s face turned red from choking, she finally took a breath, “Keeping more than one woman at the same time…”
Mr. Jinchen wasn’t afraid of ruining his own kidney!
Poor Ning Yanan, who hated playboys, might have wanted to rush forward to punish such a ladies’ man when reporting the news.
“Wait, you mentioned the Meng family just now. What happened?” Qin Youxuan pondered for a while, “Is it because Meng Ziqi returned to the country and the media started to widely report the previous marriage news?”
Ning Yanan took a sip of the honey pomelo tea and eyed Qin Youxuan with respect, you’re really clever.
She set down her tea cup before continuing, “I suspected that the marriage news was fake initially. However, a colleague captured images of the two having dinner and leaving the restaurant one after the other. Jin Chenye was just degraded in Qin Group not long ago, and Meng Ziqi hurriedly returned to the country, choosing to meet him in times like these. Don’t you think there’s something fishy going on between the two?”
“…How would I know?” Qin Youxuan’s eyes flickered, as she slightly lowered her gaze.
“The dinner you mentioned, was it at the Tulip in the city center?”
