With her grandfather in the hall, Nuannuan knew she had to find a more secluded place to speak with Xiangyi—she had too much to say to him!
Xiangyi followed her all the way until he chased her to the stairway.
“Nuannuan.”
She wanted to leave, but he stopped her.
“What’s wrong?”
Shi Nuannuan was very unhappy. She pouted her lips. “What were you doing with that woman just now! ?”
Xiangyi was stunned for half a second. “You mean Miss Manli?”
She did not say anything, which was a tacit agreement.
“I went out for some fresh air, and she happened to be there as well.”
“What a coincidence!” Although her heart was immediately relieved, she still felt very uncomfortable when she remembered his coat draped over her body just now.
“What reason do I have to lie?”
“Then why did you drape your coat over her?” asked she again.
He answered honestly, “Because she was cold and was about to catch a cold.”
“What does that have to do with you?”
“It has nothing to do with me, but she asked me to lend her my coat.”
Shi Nuannuan’s anger had mostly subsided by the time she heard this. She looked back at him. “You mean, she asked you to lend her your coat and you didn’t put it on her yourself?”
“Yes.”
The jealousy in her heart immediately disappeared.
“I…isjudged you.”
Seeing her admitting her mistake, Xiangyi’s previous feelings about the other guy also somehow disappeared in an instant.
She was angry, which meant that she still cared about him. And that dance just now might have really been just a dance, and thus didn’t mean anything.
She looked down at the coat in her hand. Shi Nuannuan’s expression after admitting her mistake suddenly turned into a dissatisfied face. She pouted her lips and said, “From now on, you’re not allowed to lend your coat to any woman, except for me!”
Her possessive declaration only made Xiangyi smile, his eyes filled with affection. “Okay.”
Only then did Shi Nuannuan nod her head in satisfaction.
Looking at her cute and cheeky face, Xiangyi could not help but stretch out his hand and pull her into his embrace, hugging her tightly.
Shi Nuannuan, though still a little stunned, leaned against his sturdy chest.
This seemed to be the first time Xiangyi had taken the initiative to get close to her.
She remembered that the first time was on the plane. But that was only because she had tricked him into it. Remembering that moment, combined with moment she was currently in only made her heart palpitate so much that it almost jumped out of her chest!
As she remained in his embrace, she wanted to confirm one thing.
“Xiangyi.”
“Yes.”
“Are we now boyfriend and girlfriend?”
Her words made Xiangyi pause for a moment before he continued, “Yes.”
Hearing this, Shi Nuannuan happily raised her hand and hugged his waist tightly.
On the other side of the hall.
After the dance ended, Zuo Weiyi returned to the lounge. She missed the babies a little, and she did not know if they had woken up yet.
The banquet was about to begin and she wanted to visit her babies before that.
She pushed the lounge door open and immediately saw a figure standing by the crib. The figure was bent over and seemed to want to do something to the babies.
Although she did not know who she was, Zuo Weiyi knew that the figure was not a nanny and immediately felt alarmed.
She immediately asked, “Who are you?!”
Her voice startled the person who suddenly pulled back. She turned around and looked at Zuo Weiyi.
When she saw the face of the person who turned around, Zuo Weiyi’s eyes widened!
