Chapter 224: Private Chat
Carried along, Xiaomuqing thought the whole way, her mind still on what had just happened.
Regarding her good brother proposing to her, asking her to be his girlfriend, she was still a bit dazed.
She remembered some time ago her good brother had told her himself that he didn’t like men and wouldn’t try to take advantage of her just because she had become a girl.
Ye Ziming: No, never, that was just your imagination.
So after this happened, she felt it must have been a joke from her good brother, but this joke was a bit… too realistic.
So realistic it felt like it was real.
No! Xiaomuqing felt this was a serious issue and she had to talk to her good brother tonight no matter what.
If he had truly turned, she might have to take a lot of responsibility!
Xiaomuqing: “Boo hoo, good brother absolutely cannot turn gay.”
Considering the crowd and that the environment wasn’t suitable, she decided to talk about it later after returning home.
In contrast to Xiaomuqing’s anxiety, Ye Ziming was in a very good mood, with the smile of a victor on his face.
In the “battle” just now, he had achieved a perfect victory, successfully transforming a friend into a girlfriend.
So now they were not pretending to be a couple, but were truly a couple, he couldn’t help but smile at the thought.
“Ye Gege.”
Just as the two were about to return to the villa to get something to eat, Fang Xiyue suddenly appeared in front of Ye Ziming.
While calling out to Ye Ziming, she directly blocked their path.
“What is it?”
“Ouch.”
Her path suddenly blocked, Ye Ziming stopped in time, looked at Fang Xiyue with a puzzled expression, and asked.
What he didn’t know was that Xiaomuqing was still lost in thought, so when he stopped suddenly, she didn’t react.
And by the time she did, she had already bumped into Ye Ziming.
“Why did you stop so suddenly?”
While rubbing her nose, Xiaomuqing walked out from behind her good brother, tilted her head up slightly, and asked with a hint of dissatisfaction.
But without waiting for her good brother to answer, she quickly saw Fang Xiyue standing in front of them and found her somewhat familiar.
“You are…”
Looking at Fang Xiyue, Xiaomuqing thought for a long time but couldn’t remember the other person’s name, and the scene suddenly became awkward.
She remembered meeting the other person, just a few days ago at the Ye family villa, and she had even fiercely confronted this person then.
“My name is Fang Xiyue, I hope you won’t forget my name next time.”
After a moment of awkward silence, Ye Ziming looked at her without speaking, and Xiaomuqing couldn’t say who she was for a long time. Fang Xiyue, unable to bear it any longer, spoke first.
“Oh, oh, Fang Xiyue, right, okay.”
As if suddenly realizing, Xiaomuqing widened her eyes, deliberately acting very surprised.
“Then, you are…”
Mimicking Xiaomuqing’s recent move, Fang Xiyue pretended not to remember Xiaomuqing’s name.
But she didn’t expect Xiaomuqing to never play by the rules.
Looking at Fang Xiyue before her, Xiaomuqing suddenly let out a snort, then struck a pose that Fang Xiyue couldn’t understand.
“I’m just a passing Kamen Rider, remember that!”
After saying this, Xiaomuqing felt exhilarated, her expression almost giving away her laughter.
Fang Xiyue: You fucking… (followed by a string of curses)
Ye Ziming: So… so cute Kamen Rider.
“Cough, cough, what do you need me for?”
Seeing that the situation was about to collapse, Ye Ziming coughed twice, restrained the smile on his face, and forced a serious expression as he asked.
For a moment just now, he almost burst out laughing.
After recovering, he reached out and patted Xiaomuqing’s head, signaling her with this action not to cause trouble for now.
“I remember today is your birthday, so I wanted to give you this.”
After managing to compose her expression, Fang Xiyue once again put on a shy smile, and with girlish embarrassment, took out the gift box she had prepared earlier.
“Birthday? His birthday isn’t today.”
Seeing the gift box, Xiaomuqing spoke to Fang Xiyue before her good brother could.
“How could that be.”
Upon hearing Xiaomuqing’s words, Fang Xiyue’s eyes widened in surprise, thinking that her information shouldn’t be wrong.
“Why would I lie to you? His birthday has already passed.”
Xiaomuqing, who always spoke the truth, didn’t realize that her words were dealing a ‘critical blow’ to Fang Xiyue.
All harm was done unconsciously.
“She’s right.”
Looking at Fang Xiyue with a faint expression, Ye Ziming delivered his finishing blow.
The scene once again fell into awkwardness, and for a moment, none of the three spoke.
When Ye Ziming felt it was about time, and was about to hold Xiaomuqing’s hand and take her to play for a while, Fang Xiyue spoke again.
Unlike before, this time Fang Xiyue wasn’t looking for Ye Ziming, but proposed to talk to Xiaomuqing alone.
“Alone?”
Raising her eyebrows slightly in surprise, Xiaomuqing felt very puzzled.
They had only met a few times, what could possibly require them to talk alone? She didn’t quite understand.
With this confusion, she agreed to Fang Xiyue, but not entirely.
She just walked a bit to the side with Fang Xiyue, where Ye Ziming could see but not hear, and the two began to whisper.
“Look at this.”
In the dim light, Fang Xiyue took out a paternity test report with the useful information blacked out, and handed it to Xiaomuqing, saying.
The test result was, of course, no blood relation.
“Paternity test report?”
Slightly raising her eyebrows, Xiaomuqing read out the words on the report.
“A toad is always a toad, even with a swan’s appearance, its essence cannot be changed…”
Her expression changed, Fang Xiyue’s smile instantly vanished, replaced by disdain and contempt.
This move left Xiaomuqing feeling unprecedentedly… confused.
Xiaomuqing: What is this person talking about, I don’t understand a single word.
“Paper cannot wrap fire. If you don’t want this report to appear in front of the Lin family, then behave yourself and stay away from Ye Gege!”
A long speech, subtly conveying that she already knew a lot of information, and using it to threaten Lin Muqing to stay away from Ye Ziming.
Fang Xiyue thought she knew everything, so she acted like a master, revealing only half the story.
Xiaomuqing, on the other hand, didn’t understand at all, and after listening for a long time, she still didn’t understand whose parentage was being tested.
Could it be hers and her mother’s? That was impossible, considering the extremely low error rate of paternity tests, there was only a tiny possibility of error.
She was very confused, watching Fang Xiyue perform her stand-up comedy the entire time.
Xiaomuqing’s confusion, in Fang Xiyue’s eyes, was a sign of being scared witless.
“Hmph! Be brave and see it through!”
Like a victorious rooster, Fang Xiyue proudly raised her chin, glanced sideways at Xiaomuqing, then simply took back the paternity test report.
Then she turned around and left alone.
