"President Xian is so busy that he is willing to hand over his little house to me for a while. You really can't … Eh? Little Red, what happened to you?"
Qin Gengxin was standing in front of the door, laughing out loud when he heard Jiang Ruolan coughing.
Jiang Ruolan, who was already coughing her lungs out, could not resist burying her face on the sofa. She was coughing more violently.
Oh heaven…
Oh earth…
Just f*cking hack me to death, please!!
A certain girl wailed miserably in her heart.
"Cough! Cough! Cough!"
The moment Qin Gengxin opened the door, Xian Zihao immediately saw Jiang Ruolan sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room. Surprise flashed across his face in the blink of an eye.
Qin Gengxin quickly walked towards Jiang Ruolan. He patted her back. "Are you all right? Could it be that the juice had expired? Impossible, I just bought it at the supermarket yesterday."
"Cough! No, no! I'm fine." Jiang Ruolan tried to hold back the cough. She rubbed her throat and coughed until her voice sounded hoarse.
"I'm good."
She couldn't say that she was so shocked to see Xian Zihao that she almost choked to death!
It seemed that burying her face on the sofa was useless. She massaged her throat with difficulty as she felt Xian Zihao's eyes on her.
"Zihao, come in and sit down!" Seeing Jiang Ruolan was fine, Qin Gengxin smiled. "We are all family here, don't be strangers!"
"Family?" Jiang Ruolan and Xian Zihao said simultaneously.
Qin Gengxin's peach blossom eyes were slightly curved as he leaned on the sofa where Jiang Ruolan was sitting. He leaned his head closer to her. He then turned his eyes to Xian Zihao with a triumphant face, "She is the Little Red I mentioned to you in America. She is now my girlfriend and soon, she will be my wife."
Before Jiang Ruolan recovered from the shock of seeing Xian Zihao, she was once again frightened by Qin Gengxin's words. She looked at him as if she had seen a ghost.
Xian Zihao raised his eyebrows slightly. "Girlfriend?"
His meaningful gaze fell on the stunned Jiang Ruolan, and the corner of his mouth curled.
"He's Xian Zihao, my good brother who shared life and death with me when I was studying at Harvard. Don't underestimate him, even though he is in this country, he has helped me a lot. He's definitely good enough to be a good brother to me, but this brother has been very busy for the past two years to meet with me."
Qin Gengxin got up and put his arm around Xian Zihao's shoulder. "I heard that you were in Beijing a few days ago. Did you come back because you knew I was coming?
Xian Zihao smirked. "No matter how busy I am, I can't resist from seeing your face."
"Ha! I knew it. I knew you missed me too!" Qin Gengxin smiled. He quickly walked to the wine cabinet in the corner of the living room.
As Qin Gengxin turned to open the wine cabinet, Jiang Ruolan, who was gradually recovering from her shock, was greeted with a stern look.
She panicked and wanted to explain when Qin Gengxin suddenly turned around with a bottle in his hand. "I remember you liked red wine. This is Lafite from '82. Do you want to try it? This time, I deliberately collected ten bottles, all of which are the most authentic and genuine products!"
Xian Zihao took the bottle and looked at the number on it. "Ten bottles? You brat, since when you have been so generous?
"What are you trying to say? You should appreciate it. Tsk!" Qin Gengxin crossed his arms over his chest. "Say, why did you decide to go home? You had managed your Xian Company overseas well, and then suddenly, you decide to take control of Xian Group. No matter what, you shouldn't leave your life in Boston just because of a woman!"
Xian Zihao pursed his lips and did not say a word.
"How good was it back then." Qin Gengxin sighed as he looked at Xian Zihao, who seemed undisturbed. "Was it worth losing your freedom because of a woman?"
Jiang Ruolan suddenly felt that it was not appropriate for her to be here. No matter how curious she was about the woman Qin Gengxin talking about, it was not something she deserved to know.
She picked up her bag and walked quickly to the door. "I still have work to do. I will be leaving first."
"Hey, stop right there!" How could Qin Gengxin let her off just like that? "Just sit there. We'll have dinner together soon."
"You guys go, I won't –"
Xian Zihao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly shifted his gaze and gave her a glance.
Jiang Ruolan stopped in her tracks. She thought for a moment and said, "I mean, since both of you haven't met each other for a while, there are definitely a lot of things you wanted to talk about. It's uncomfortable for me to stay here, so I'd better go back first."
"Why do you have to feel uncomfortable? Are you afraid that both of us will eat you?" Qin Gengxin's face gradually became displeased and he glared at Xian Zihao. "Zihao is not an outsider and you are my woman. Why do you have to be ashamed? Sit down!"
Jiang Ruolan bit her lip. Did this stinky brat really consider her his girlfriend?
Since when did she become his?
Jiang Ruolan frowned and warned that damned brat to shut up and stop talking nonsense with her eyes.
Qin Gengxin, who was staring at her, immediately raised his eyebrow. "Why are you still standing there? If you are bored, quickly go to the kitchen and pour Zihao something to drink. He is our guest."
Jiang Ruolan was devastated, "Qin Gengxin, can you shut up!"
Xian Zihao just stared at Jiang Ruolan, clearly did not mean to take part in the fight between the two of them. From start to finish, he had a faint and unpredictable smile on his face.
Qin Gengxin suddenly felt ashamed. He happily introduced her to his best brother, and not only did she not give him face at all, but she even made him feel embarrassed.
Qin Gengxin glared at Jiang Ruolan sharply. "Jiang Ruolan!"
Jiang Ruolan glared back at him furiously. She wasn't an idiot and she can naturally see the meaning behind his gaze.
She wasn't his wife or his mother, so why did she have to go along with this bastard?
At the same time, she also saw a dark smile on Xian Zihao's face.
Jiang Ruolan was so angry and reluctantly entered the kitchen.
When she returned with a glass in her hand, Qin Gengxin was already sitting on the sofa with Xian Zihao. They talked about something, both smiling and looking in a good mood.
But she was in a bad mood!
Jiang Ruolan unhappily placed a glass of water on the coffee table in front of Xian Zihao.
Xian Zihoa's glistening eyes landed on her face, and a devilish smile appeared in his eyes.
Qin Gengxin frowned. "There are so many drinks in the fridge. How do you know Zihao likes plain water?"
Xian Zihao was about to take his glass but his hand froze at the edge of the glass.
Jiang Ruolan was startled. She looked at the glass of water on the coffee table, then looked at Xian Zihao, then looked back at Qin Gengxin's frowning expression, which looked like he was eating something wrong.
When she was in the kitchen, she actually did not overthink. At first, she wanted to take a bottle of water from the fridge, but when she saw the water dispenser, she remembered the day Xian Zihao brought her to Greenville Residence. He also drank plain water, so she unknowingly poured a glass of water for him.
However, when Qin Gengxin asked this question, she panicked. Not knowing how to answer it, she replied, "I just poured a glass of water when I saw the water dispenser there."
Without batting an eyelid, Xian Zihao took the glass and sipped it.
Jiang Ruolan pouted. She really didn't know what to say in this situation.
Two months ago, news between her and Xian Zihao had long circulated in and out of H City for a long time.
Now Qin Gengxin had appeared, although the news was gone, he had a wide connection, so it wasn't quite possible for him not knowing the news from two months ago.
