Xiao Cheng subconsciously straightened his back, and his expression became more serious, “Your brother is with Luo Jingshu?”
Jiang Zihe looked at him in surprise, “How did you know he was with my brother?”
He only said he saw Luo Jingshu, but didn’t say where he saw him.
Xiao Cheng seemed very confident, Luo Jingshu must be with his brother.
“I guessed.” Xiao Cheng licked his lips, relieving his tension, “How is their relationship?”
Where is the plot now?
Xiao Cheng suddenly realized that not knowing the plot wasn’t a good thing, he had no idea where it was now.
Would Jiang Ying and Luo Jingshu’s relationship affect Nian Nian?
That female classmate didn’t say what the ending of the fake young master of the Luo family was, and Xiao Cheng didn’t know if the scumbag attacker would involve his family when he made his move.
“They seem okay, my brother smiled when he talked to Luo Jingshu.” Jiang Zihe didn’t say that he even felt like his brother’s attitude towards Luo Jingshu wasn’t like that of a younger brother, but more like a business partner of similar age.
Luo Jingshu looked like he didn’t have anything special, except for being good-looking, but would his brother be so superficial?
“If you’re curious, I can ask my brother for you after we return.”
Speaking of which, Xiao Cheng didn’t seem to care about Luo Jingshu’s affairs usually, why was he suddenly so curious now?
“Okay.” Xiao Cheng coughed softly, “I’m not that curious, I just want to hear some gossip.”
Jiang Zihe suddenly showed an “I understand” expression; honestly, he was a bit curious too.
“What were you two talking about?” Jiang Ying asked, looking at Xiao Cheng with a serious expression, making Xiao Cheng feel a bit strange.
“Nothing, I just feel a bit hungry.”
Jiang Ying called the waiter to ask how much longer it would take for the food to arrive.
After asking, he turned to the others, “Do you want to drink?”
“No, thank you, Brother Jiang.” Fang Hui saw that Xiao Cheng wasn’t responding, so he softly shook his head and answered Jiang Ying.
Xiao Cheng was still sizing up Jiang Ying, and saw Jiang Ying smiling at him, “You seem to have something to say to me.”
He had been looking at him for a while but didn’t say anything. What was Xiao Cheng thinking?
“Brother Jiang,” Xiao Cheng thought momentarily and asked curiously, “Do you have someone you like now?”
Asking this question was a bit rude, considering their current relationship and the fact that they had only met once before. The last time they met, Xiao Cheng even deliberately provoked Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying could have chosen not to answer him.
But after hearing the question, Jiang Ying just smiled, leaned back in his chair, and said with a relaxed tone, “Why are you curious about this?”
He looked at Xiao Cheng with a gaze that seemed to be sizing him up, making him think of a leopard waiting to pounce, or a hunter setting a trap.
Xiao Cheng’s expression didn’t change, and he flattered Jiang Ying, “Because Brother Jiang is so handsome, mature, and rich, it doesn’t seem like you wouldn’t have a partner.”
He suddenly said this, and the others at the dinner table looked at him in surprise, especially Fang Hui, who seemed shocked that his idol had fallen off his pedestal.
Jiang Zihe secretly gave him a thumbs up.
He’s even better at flattering people than him.
Jiang Ying’s voice was low and husky as he laughed, and he looked at Xiao Cheng with a meaningful gaze. “I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you,” he said.
“You don’t have an ambiguous partner?”
Jiang Ying: “Yes.”
Xiao Cheng thought to himself, Jiang Ying is indeed a scumbag.
The plot has already started, and Jiang Zihe just saw him with Luo Jingshu, but Jiang Ying denied it.
Luo Jingshu wasn’t even considered an ambiguous partner in his heart.
Jiang Ying originally thought he would ask more questions, but Xiao Cheng seemed to have suddenly lost interest and looked lazy.
He seemed like a scumbag who had suddenly cooled down in the middle of a passionate love affair, leaving Jiang Ying to secretly guess his thoughts.
“Xiao Cheng.” Jiang Ying’s voice was low and husky as he laughed, his eyes deep and mysterious, “Do you have a girlfriend?”
The atmosphere was slightly ambiguous, and Xiao Cheng felt that strange feeling again. Jiang Ying, this scumbag, wouldn’t be trying to flirt with him, would he?
Hopefully he was just thinking too much and being too self-confident.
Xiao Cheng hadn’t responded yet, when Jiang Zihe laughed and said, “Brother, he doesn’t have a partner, none of us in the dorm do.”
So it’s not just me who’s single.
Xiao Cheng secretly gritted his teeth, and for the first time, he was annoyed at Jiang Zihe for talking too much.
Jiang Ying’s eyes had a hint of a smile, and he said with a hint of meaning, “Is that so?”
Xiao Cheng also smiled and stretched out his long legs, putting one hand on the table and tapping his fingers lightly, “No partner.”
“But there’s someone I’m pursuing.”
“Only I haven’t caught them yet.”
Jiang Ying’s smile suddenly faded a bit, and he gazed deeply into Xiao Cheng’s eyes. Xiao Cheng didn’t back down, and looked back at him steadily.
Jiang Zihe shrunk his neck, and felt like the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
A moment later, Jiang Ying was the first to laugh and say, “Then I wish you good luck.”
Xiao Cheng hooked the corner of his mouth, “Thanks for the blessing.”
When their eyes met, it seemed like sparks were flying between them.
Jiang Ying couldn’t help but laugh in his heart. He was ten years older than Xiao Cheng. Why bother with a child?
He was quite interested in Xiao Cheng because of Xiao Cheng’s inexplicable hostility towards him.
Actually, Xiao Cheng’s appearance wasn’t entirely to Jiang Ying’s taste, and if he had to say, Luo Jingshu’s face was more to his liking.
When he saw Luo Jingshu, Jiang Ying even thought that he should be interested in Luo Jingshu.
But unfortunately, Luo Jingshu was too cold, and had a ruthless personality, being too clever and cunning. Jiang Ying had always been wary of people like that.
If he combined Luo Jingshu’s face with Xiao Cheng’s personality, it might meet Jiang Ying’s requirements.
Jiang Ying looked at Xiao Cheng’s face, and his eyes had a hint of regret. Unfortunately, Xiao Cheng already had someone he liked, or else he might have tried to pursue him.
Xiao Cheng then lowered his head and took out his phone, silently sending a message to Nian Nian.
[Have you met Jiang Ying before?]
Xiao Cheng vaguely remembered that the female classmate had said that after Jiang Ying took a liking to Luo Jingshu, he would often go to see him under various pretexts and even take Luo Jingshu out of the Luo family.
If Jiang Ying went to the Luo family, he should have seen Nian Nian.
Luo Jingshu was on his way back when he saw Xiao Cheng’s message, and his expression turned darker.
Did Xiao Cheng already know that he was Luo Jingshu?
Luo Jingshu thought for a moment, and cautiously replied:
[Yes.]
Xiao Cheng’s heart tightened. Nian Nian had actually met Jiang Ying. Did Jiang Ying do anything to Nian Nian?
It wasn’t strange that Xiao Cheng was suspicious, Jiang Ying was acting too much like a scumbag.
On one hand, he was ambiguous with Luo Jingshu; on the other, he was secretly flirting with him.
Jiang Ying was probably a man who only looked at appearances, and Nian Nian was so good-looking. Jiang Ying wouldn’t be interested too, would he?
Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng looked up at Jiang Ying again, his eyes filled with inquiry.
Jiang Ying raised an eyebrow; what was this kid thinking all the time, always inexplicably targeting him?
If he hadn’t been sure that he had only met Xiao Cheng twice, he would have thought that he had played with Xiao Cheng’s emotions before.
He didn’t have any past lovers who knew Xiao Cheng, did he?
“Xiao Cheng.” Jiang Zihe nudged his arm, “Are you chatting with Nian Nian?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Zihe smiled, “You’re really clingy.”
Xiao Cheng’s brain flashed with Nian Nian’s face, and he subconsciously smiled, his eyes shining with a gentle smile, “You don’t understand.”
Jiang Ying took in this scene, and suddenly became curious, what kind of person was Xiao Cheng?
He smiled warmly at others, but was cold and icy towards him.
Tsk.
Jiang Ying touched the tip of his tongue to the inside of his cheek, his eyes deepening slightly.
“Are you messaging the person you like?” Jiang Ying asked.
The people at the dinner table turned their attention to Xiao Cheng again, who was talking to Jiang Zihe, and looked a bit bewildered, “Yeah.”
“Is it a girl?”
As soon as he said this, Fang Hui’s expression became complex, and Du Yunshen’s face was also strange.
Last night, Fang Hui had gotten drunk and told Du Yunshen that Xiao Cheng wasn’t a straight man.
Du Yunshen had always thought that Xiao Cheng wasn’t straight, and if Xiao Cheng hadn’t repeatedly emphasized that he liked girls, he wouldn’t have believed that Xiao Cheng was straight.
It turned out that Xiao Cheng was pretending to be straight.
Du Yunshen couldn’t understand why Xiao Cheng wouldn’t admit that he liked boys, when their dorm mates weren’t homophobic.
Unless…
Xiao Cheng didn’t want them to know who the person he liked was.
Du Yunshen analyzed it rationally, not wanting them to know might be because the person’s identity was special, or maybe, if they found out who the person was, something would happen that Xiao Cheng didn’t want to see.
He and Fang Hui weren’t people who liked gossip, so maybe Xiao Cheng was being cautious because of Jiang Zihe?
Why? Was it because Jiang Zihe had a big mouth, or because…
Did Jiang Zihe also know this person?
Du Yunshen thought a lot in that instant.
During the time he was deep in thought, Xiao Cheng had already calmly answered Jiang Ying’s question.
“Yeah.”
He coughed softly, “It’s a very cute girl.”
Sorry, Nian Nian.
Fang Hui’s expression became even more complex, what was Brother Cheng thinking, and why was he pretending to be straight?
Jiang Ying snorted, “Is that so?”
He clearly sensed a similar aura from Xiao Cheng, and even if Xiao Cheng didn’t like him, he must have liked other men.
A girl?
Ha.
Jiang Ying’s interest in Xiao Cheng increased from 50% to 70%, he couldn’t guess Xiao Cheng’s thoughts, and only thought that Xiao Cheng was being cautious because of him, so he said that on purpose.
This kid is quite perceptive.
Xiao Cheng barely managed to deceive him, and he lowered his head to continue looking at his phone. He found that Nian Nian had sent him two more messages.
[Brother Cheng, why did you suddenly ask about him?]
[Did something happen?]
Like, his identity being exposed?
