nPffff——!

nThe bodyguards standing not too far away burst into laughter.

nQiao Yanjue’s face turned overcast.

n“What did you say?”

nHe gnashed his teeth in anger as he looked at Xia Xibei, fighting back the urge to smack her on the butt!

nWhat nonsense did she tell others?!

nXia Xibei never thought that Song Jiaren would remember it clearly, or that she would spill it at a time like this.

nShe felt kind of awkward. Laughing dryly, she told Song Jiaren, “Haha… You’re mistaken, it’s not him…”

n“Oh, it’s the other Mr. Qiao!” Song Jiaren came to a sudden realization. “This Mr. Qiao and the Mr. Qiao who delivered food to us aren’t the same person!”

nXia Xibei’s lips twitched, not daring to sneak a glance at Qiao Yanjue.

nQiao Yanjue’s face had completely darkened, because he was the same Mr. Qiao who had delivered food to them yesterday!

nLittle had he thought that Xia Xibei would speak of him in that way!

nXia Xibei felt chills cascading down her spine, sensing that Qiao Yanjue’s eyes were filled with a murderous look right now.

nShe changed the subject immediately, “Alright, let’s get back as soon as we can. It’s late already. Oh, right, where’s your driver?”

nSong Jiaren fumbled to get out her phone. “I’ll ask him to come over now.”

n“No need for that, I’ll send the two of you back,” Qiao Yanjue spoke up.

nThe reason he came here today was to bring Xia Xibei to the pharmacy.

n“No need, we have a car!”

nHow could Xia Xibei have the nerve to stay in the same space as Qiao Yanjue? After what Song Jiaren said just now, it was way too embarrassing.

n“Miss, I happen to be going the same way. We should go together.”

nOut of nowhere, Qiao Yanjue flashed a smile at Song Jiaren.

nSong Jiaren’s eyes went wide immediately. He was so charming!

nHe was tall and handsome and graceful and elegant, so much more attractive than the male celebrities out there!

nAt that moment, Song Jiaren forgot that Yang Xuan even existed.

n——The two of them just weren’t on the same level, able to be compared!

n“Sure, sure, sure! Let’s go together!” Song Jiaren’s eyes were shimmering.

nIt wasn’t that she had any feelings for Qiao Yanjue. Just being able to travel in the same car with such a handsome man was a blessing!

nAs she watched how Song Jiaren had succumbed without any hesitation, Xia Xibei’s lips twitched in frustration. How she wished she could give her a slap!

nAlthough Qiao Yanjue was very handsome indeed, he was venomous!

nWith Song Jiaren’s brains, she might even help him count his profit if he ever sold her to someone else!

nSong Jiaren had no idea what Xia Xibei was thinking, looking at her expectantly. “Since you know each other, we should go together!”

nXia Xibei pulled her to the side, and asked through gritted teeth, “Aren’t you afraid that he might be a bad guy?”

nSong Jiaren blinked, looking bewildered. “He doesn’t look like a bad guy though!”

nShe had followed her father around and seen quite a lot of people.

nSure, she wasn’t a hundred percent accurate in telling the good guys apart from the bad guys, but there was no way a man as outstanding as Qiao Yanjue could be bad!

nEven though he might not be a good guy, he certainly wouldn’t hurt the two of them.

n“How are you so confident in your judgment?” Xia Xibei was exasperated that Song Jiaren was so easily influenced.

nIf Song Jiaren really was good at discerning between good and bad, she wouldn’t have been cheated by Yang Xuan!

nShe might have spoken her thoughts if not for the fact that she didn’t want to unravel Song Jiaren’s wound.

nHowever, Song Jiaren’s self-healing ability was unexpectedly great. “Yang Xuan was an exception! He’s different from Mr. Qiao!”

nSong Jiaren could tell that the car behind Qiao Yanjue had cost at least a few million!

nHow could someone like that do bad things to her?

n“Okay then. Putting all that aside, you know him, don’t you? If he’s a bad guy, why would you bring me here?”

nSpeaking more precisely, what she really believed in was Xia Xibei’s judgment.

nXia Xibei was rendered speechless by her question.

nAlthough Qiao Yanjue wasn’t really a good guy, he didn’t count as a bad guy either.

n“Can we leave now?” Qiao Yanjue finally spoke, an enchanting smile on his lips.
