“As for you, you’re not fit for the role at all.”

Xu Zhiqin spat out the words indifferently.

Pan Hongsen gritted his teeth, and the veins on his cheeks bulged. He was so humiliated that his eyes were as wide as dinner plates.

Xu Zhiqin walked past him and was about to leave when he suddenly grabbed her wrist. “You’ve scolded me enough. Are you done now?”

He had always thought that Xu Zhiqin would accept him again.

Xu Zhiqin shook off his hand and said, “I already have someone I like.”

Pan Hongsen obviously didn’t believe her.

She looked up. Not far away, He Xuyan was walking over. In a hurry, Xu Zhiqin ran over, hooked her arms around He Xuyan’s neck, and kissed him on the lips.

He Xuyan was suddenly pulled back by the woman. He felt her lips on his, and a cool and sweet taste spread from the corner of his lips.

The sky was clear, and the weather was good.

His hands fell on her waist, and his eyes lit up.

Xu Zhiqin’s mind exploded, and her vision was blurry.

Xu Zhiqin pushed He Xuyan away after a moment and turned to look at the stunned Pan Hongsen. Her voice regained its coldness. “Did you see that?”

Pan Hongsen threw away the rose in his hand and turned to leave angrily.

The brightness in He Xuyan’s eyes gradually lost its warmth. He lowered his eyes and asked, “You used me as a shield?”

“Pan Hongsen is too much. I always feel that he’s so charming that it’s hard for me to refuse him, so I…” Xu Zhiqin explained.

She could sense He Xuyan’s cold attitude.

She also regretted what she had done just now. She opened her mouth to explain, but He Xuyan’s alienation made her swallow what she wanted to say.

“Didn’t you say we’d have breakfast together?” Xu Zhiqin took two steps forward and followed him.

“Yeah.” He Xuyan nodded and lowered his cap. He was obviously in low spirits.

The breakfast was a little boring.

After eating, He Xuyan sent her back before leaving.

Xu Zhiqin fiddled with her fingers, knowing that she had gone too far just now. She clearly wasn’t using him as a shield, but she seemed to have gone too far with her actions.

No wonder He Xuyan was angry.

This was their first kiss, but she had messed it up and even used such a method.

After He Xuyan and Xu Zhiqin separated, he went to Nirvana Entertainment.

Su Bei was sorting out the evidence to sue Xiao Ming. There was a lot of work she needed to do.

Xiao Ming was completely fearless, which aroused Su Bei’s resistance. Seeing that there were so many victims, she was furious and worked much faster.

When He Xuyan entered, she had just put down the phone.

“Brother, to what do I owe the pleasure?”

“I’m here to see how things are going. Do you need help?” He Xuyan pulled out a chair and sat down opposite her.

Su Bei sorted out the information in front of her. “It’s all prepared. There shouldn’t be much of a problem. Wait, didn’t you go to see Zhiqin?”

“Why should I go see her?” He Xuyan lowered his head.

His good mood from this morning was gone.

It did not feel good to be used as a shield.

It turned out that she would only take the initiative if Pan Hongsen was watching her.

Su Bei noticed that he was in a bad mood. She approached him and asked, “What’s going on? What’s wrong with you and Zhiqin?”

“You know?” He Xuyan looked at her.

Su Bei smiled, revealing two rows of beautiful teeth. It was like rays of light were shining down on her currently ordinary appearance. “I’m your sister, Brother. Of course, I know that you like Zhiqin. I can tell that she has a good impression of you, but why are you like this now?”

“She doesn’t like me.” He Xuyan lowered his head and fiddled with his phone with his long fingers.

Su Bei looked confused.

How could that be?

What was wrong that made him misunderstand?

He Xuyan did not want to explain. That kiss made him drop from heaven to hell. The subtle emotions were not something outsiders could understand.

Although Su Bei did not know what was going on, she could understand his current mood.

People in love were all like this. They were seriously worried about gains and losses.

She wanted He Xuyan to be happy. She held his face and smiled. “Don’t be unhappy. I’ll walk around with you later, okay?”

“Okay.” He Xuyan gave her a smile and reached out to stroke her hair.

“I know you’re the best. I’ll treat you to hotpot later. There’s nothing that hotpot can’t solve. If it doesn’t work, we’ll order more food!”

He Xuyan smiled. “Alright, two meals it is.”

“Don’t touch my wig. It’s about to fall off.” Whatever Su Bei said came true. Her wig fell because of He Xuyan’s actions, and her thick long hair cascaded down.

Su Bei hurriedly reached out to grab it. She was very close to He Xuyan, so she fell into his arms.

Afraid of seeing her fall, He Xuyan reached out his long arms and hugged her tightly.

At this moment, Xu Zhiqin pushed the door open and entered.

After she separated from He Xuyan, she didn’t know how to explain it to him. Coincidentally, she received a call from Su Bei asking her to come to the company to discuss work.

When she came over, she was not in a good state. When she saw that Su Bei’s office door was ajar, she pushed it open and happened to see the extremely ambiguous scene in front of her.

He Xuyan had an indulgent smile on his face. She couldn’t see the face of the woman in his arms clearly, but from her beautiful chestnut curly hair, Xu Zhiqin could tell that she was an extremely charming woman.

Xu Zhiqin was stunned for a moment. He Xuyan’s gaze was already on her.

She frowned slightly and felt a slight pain in her heart. She didn’t care what was going on with the woman and said hurriedly, “I’m sorry.”

Then, she turned around and ran away.

He Xuyan let go of Su Bei and let her sit down. He said, “I’ll go out for a while.”

Su Bei could already tell that it was Xu Zhiqin’s voice. She couldn’t help but smile and say, “Go, go!”

Looking at He Xuyan’s hurried back, she was not worried. Instead, she smiled brightly. This time, she might have helped him out by allowing the two of them to completely confirm each other’s feelings.

Xu Zhiqin ran away as if she was escaping. She ran toward the underground parking lot. Her hands and feet were cold. She started the car several times but could not start it.

She bit her lip and hit the steering wheel as if she was venting her anger. She held back her tears.

Just as she was about to move on from her past trauma, He Xuyan’s actions just now dealt her a blow that was no less than Pan Hongsen’s betrayal back then.

Her hope was reignited, but it was immediately extinguished in despair.

How ironic!

She finally started the car. A figure suddenly appeared in front of her, scaring her so much that she slammed on the brakes.

He Xuyan stopped in his tracks and rushed over to open her car door.

It was too late for Xu Zhiqin to lock the car door, so she could only watch him open it.

“Zhiqin, listen to me.” He Xuyan climbed in and sat down. His usually calm face was filled with anxious frustration.
