After Gong Zeli left, Qiao Mianmian rubbed her sore ankle. She looked at the time and said apologetically, “Luo Luo, I promised to pick a gift with you. But now…
“Instead, it became you accompanying me to the hospital.”
“Baby, don’t say that. If you’re so polite, I’ll be angry. We can pick a gift any day. If anything happens to you, I’ll blame myself. After all, if I hadn’t called you out, you wouldn’t have encountered this today.”
“Alright.” Qiao Mianmian thought that even if she participated in a variety show, she would still have to wait for a while. She said, “Then, pick a time tomorrow. I’ll shop with you.”
“Alright.”
Jiang Luoli was still worried about her. “Are you really alright? You have to tell me if you feel uncomfortable.”
Qiao Mianmian nodded. “I’m fine.”
“Alright. It’s already so late, let’s find a place to have dinner. Have you made an appointment with Prince Charming tonight? Will I affect your date?”
“What effect can it have? I’ll just let him know. Let’s go find a place to eat.”
…
In the end, they chose a hot pot restaurant.
Jiang Luoli drank a little.
She recalled what happened in the mall and couldn’t help but ask, “Baby, what’s with that Shangguan Qing? Is she really Gong Zeli’s fiancée? I think Gong Zeli hates her a little.”
Qiao Mianmian picked up a piece of tripe. “I’m not sure. But I heard from my brother that the Gong’s intend to form a connection with the Shangguan’s through marriage. As for whether it will happen, I’m not sure.”
“You and Gong Zeli obviously have a very ordinary relationship. Why would Shangguan Qing think that you have an ambiguous relationship with him?” Jiang Luoli had just finished asking when she suddenly recalled Gong Zeli’s previous actions. Her eyes flickered, and there was a deeper meaning in them.
Perhaps she was overthinking.
She felt that there was something wrong with Gong Zeli.
Although she didn’t know him well, she’d heard about him before. She knew he wasn’t someone who would defend others easily, nor was he so thoughtful.
But he didn’t just defend Qiao Mianmian.
He even offered to send her to the hospital.
And the way he looked at her when he got the doctor to do a full-body check-up on Qiao Mianmian…
If it was because he and Mo Yesi were brothers.
He was too concerned about his brother’s woman.
Too concerned.
“How would I know? Maybe she saw the scandal between us?” Qiao Mianmian didn’t know what was going on with Shangguan Qing.
Jiang Luoli hesitated for a while before saying, “Baby, don’t you feel that Gong Zeli… treats you differently?”
Qiao Mianmian was stunned. “Differently? Luo Luo, what are you trying to say?”
“I think so.” Jiang Luoli hesitated for a few seconds before saying, “I know you only have Prince Charming in your heart. But Gong Zeli seems to have feelings for you.
“Perhaps this caused Shangguan Qing to misunderstand?”
Qiao Mianmian’s expression changed slightly. “Gong Zeli has feelings for me?”
