Tang Yuyan and Nangong Mingchuan seemed to have noticed something too, that he deeply despised Feifei, yet didn’t seem to reject Xixi as strongly?
Perhaps on the surface, he didn’t really like Xixi either, but at least when he was upset, he hadn’t done anything harsh to Xixi.
Could it be because Xixi was close to Qiangwei?
Yes, maybe that was it.
After taking the elevator down to the first floor of J Building, just stepping out the door, Nangong Xi suddenly paused in his tracks.
Gu Qiangwei, who was holding his hand, also stopped, and looking down slightly, she stared at his round little head, "What’s wrong?"
Nangong Xi furrowed his brows, then looked up at Gu Qiangwei, "I want to go to the restroom!"
Gu Qiangwei was startled for a moment, then after pondering for a few seconds, "There’s a public restroom on the first floor of the building, shall I take you there?"
Just as Nangong Xi was about to nod, Tang Yuyan, who had been standing behind her, came forward. Her son was her own, and she obviously didn’t want to trouble Qiangwei, so she spoke softly, "Xixi, mommy will take you, you shouldn’t bother Sister Qiangwei."
However, after listening to his mother’s words, the little one pouted unhappily, "No, I want Sister Qiangwei to go with me!"
"Xixi, you mustn’t be rude!" Nangong Mingchuan also came over and spoke in a low voice, instructing him.
Nangong Xi’s little mouth pouted even higher, his eyes filled with grievance as he looked at Gu Qiangwei.
Gu Qiangwei looked up, and with a smile towards the couple, "I’ll take him."
After hearing this, the sulkiness on Nangong Xi’s face immediately turned into a radiant smile, and once again he glanced at Qin Sijue.
Meeting the declaration in his eyes, Qin Sijue’s eyes narrowed, but in the end, all he could do was watch the two walk back towards the entrance of J Building.
Watching the two enter, the three people at the door could only wait in place.
"You don’t like Qin Si?"
The restroom was at the back of the building, a two-minute walk away. As Gu Qiangwei led him, and thinking of how he always deliberately made gestures and pulled faces at Qin Si, she realized that he must really dislike Qin Sijue.
Nangong Xi didn’t deny it and nodded, "Hmm, I don’t like him!"
"Because he crippled your sister’s leg?"
"No, I don’t like Feifei, so I wouldn’t dislike him for that reason!"
"Then why do you dislike him?"
"He’s too violent!" said Nangong Xi, recalling how he had been dangled out of the window on the 9th floor; it was far too violent, far too bloody!
"He was just trying to scare you," Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help defending Qin Sijue.
Perhaps on the surface he seemed cold and quite scary, sometimes his actions were a bit rough, but he had never really hurt Nangong Xi. Only those whom he truly detested would he be resolute and ruthlessly violent against.
"I know!" Nangong Xi nodded, his heart also understood that Qin Sijue was just trying to scare him, for if it had been true, he would have been thrown down a long time ago!
Suddenly they arrived at the men’s restroom, and as Gu Qiangwei felt it inappropriate to enter, she let go of Nangong Xi’s hand, "I’ll wait for you here."
Nangong Xi turned his head back, his handsome little face slightly mischievous, "You’re not allowed to sneak away, okay?"
Gu Qiangwei smiled, "Of course not."
With that assurance, Nangong Xi entered the restroom with peace of mind.
About two minutes later, he finished using the restroom and washed his hands at the children’s basin before coming out and once again took Gu Qiangwei’s hand.
Gu Qiangwei looked down at him with a smile, and, holding hands, they walked towards the exit of the corridor.
