Xia Ning was used to gossips. Plus, the rumors before were just guesses. But this time, it was her and Jin Yan. It made her feel weird.
The photos were taken from every angle. It seemed like someone knew they were going to pass by there.
But the paparazzi nowadays had a very good sense of smell. Maybe she was overthinking.
There were numerous tagged notifications on her Weibo. They were asking her about her relationship with Jin Yan. She exited Weibo and called Jin Yan directly.
“Hello, Jin Yan. Did you see the news online?”
“Yup, don’t worry about this. I’m already handling it.” Jin Yan’s voice came from the phone.
Xia Ning answered, “Sure. Don’t let your girlfriend misunderstand.”
“Yes, I’m afraid too. So I will clarify as soon as possible.” Jin Yan’s voice was a bit low as if he was busy with other things.
“Sure. Call me if anything happens.” Xia Ning hung up.
Now she needed to explain to Qiao Yu. She went straight to the dialing interface. After the call was done, she realized that she was starting to explain to others as well.
In fact, it was good to have this kind of gossip. It would be good to explain everything between her and Jin Yan so that Qiao Yu would not misunderstand.
A woman’s instinct told her he misunderstood her and Jin Yan! But when it came to Jin Yan, he looked like he was not willing to talk anymore.
The call went through and Xia Ning asked directly, “Qiao Yu, where are you?”
“In the Gao house.” Qiao Yu’s voice was very calm. Someone was still talking beside him.
“Father, it’s not that I want to say this. Xinyi is virtuous and capable. She just came back as a fresh graduate from Canada and is very compatible with our Yu.” Gao Lihua’s voice came from the phone.
Xia Ning heard this and raised her eyebrows. “Blind date?”
“You are overthinking,” Qiao Yu said calmly. “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.”
“Wait!” Xia Ning said at once. “I can explain everything about me and Jin Yan online.”
“Sure,” Qiao Yu answered and hung up.
Seeing the phone screen, Xia Ning frowned. Can this be described as when it rains, it pours? What a coincidence!
Was it because the court documents were not authorised yet? Did the Shen family think they could still be saved? Was that why they are putting in a lot of effort?! If that was the case, she would have to let them down.
In the Gao family house, Old Master Gao was sitting on the sofa. Gao Lihua was holding a girl’s hand and praising her. When he saw Qiao Yu coming back after the call, he said to Old Master Gao, “Really, Sister. Yu is already so old. Why didn’t you find a partner for him? How long do you want to wait? Don’t be like some rich young masters who falls in love with some celebrities and destroy himself!”
Qiao Yu walked over and darted a look at Gao Lihua. He put his phone away.
Gao Yang poked Qiao Yu’s arm and said with a smile, “Brother Tianlang is obviously older than you but still does not have a wife. This little aunt forgot and still wants to poke her nose in other people’s business. Plus, the rest of her words were obviously talking about you and Sister-in-law. But this Meng Xinni is really good-looking.”
Qiao Yu darted a warning look at Gao Yang and he shut his mouth immediately.
Gao Lihua finished talking and turned to Qiao Yu suddenly. “Yu, it’s Xinni’s first time here at the Gao family house. Take her to look around.”
