Helian Xi already felt like laughing inside but still pretended to be nonchalant.
Who let Third Brother flaunt his relationship in front of her, did he forget she’s still a Single Dog?
Who doesn’t know how to use their hands? Yet there he was, endlessly peeling shrimp and picking out fishbones for Little Zhi Liao.
"Quite popular, huh." Huo Jincheng glanced at Lu Xingzhi, who seemed out of the loop, as if the person he mentioned was not her at all.
Lu Xingzhi noticed several gazes lingering on her, slowly lifted her head, and looked puzzled, "What’s up?"
"How did you meet him? You’ve just been going through military training these two weeks, and you already know the school heartthrob." Huo Jincheng felt a bit of a headache; this indeed was a bit fast.
Just goes to show that his little treasure easily attracts people.
"Seems like he really likes you!" Helian Yi said gleefully on the side.
He couldn’t really do anything, but he could stir things up a bit.
"Like me? Why would he like me?" Lu Xingzhi didn’t understand their logic, "I’m not even familiar with them."
"No! Little Zhi Liao, do you know Luo Qingchen? He’s famously aloof at school and never interacts much with girls. See, why did he invite you to dinner twice?" Helian Xi said.
Lu Xingzhi explained, "It wasn’t just me! The first time, it was all of us from the dorm. And today, you were there too!"
"Little Zhi Liao, do you have some kind of misunderstanding about yourself?" Helian Xi felt the universe remained fair, granting someone good looks along with intelligence.
Turns out, the emotional intelligence wasn’t too high.
"When someone invites you to dinner, they’re clearly interested in you. Got it?" Helian Xi candidly said.
"So, you all think he likes me? But I’ve already mentioned I have a fiancé. No matter how many dinners he treats me to, I won’t like him! The guy’s not that dumb."
After Lu Xingzhi finished talking, the other three silently lit a candle for those who liked her.
Huo Jincheng felt lucky to be her fiancé. Otherwise, he’d be one of them too.
"I’m full, you guys continue eating." Lu Xingzhi took her last bite of rice and set her bowl and chopsticks down.
Then, she quietly left the restaurant.
"I’m full too." Huo Jincheng stood up, giving an unfriendly look to the siblings, "If you’re full, then go back quickly. What’s the point in saying such things, your Third Sister-in-law is unhappy now."
The siblings glanced at each other, looking quite innocent.
Third Brother was the typical example of burning bridges after crossing them.
Obviously, he wanted to know more, but somehow, the blame fell on them.
Then Helian Xi passed the buck, "It’s entirely your fault for causing trouble with Little Zhi Liao."
He’s definitely not taking the blame.
Huo Jincheng pushed open Lu Xingzhi’s room door, walked to her side, "Angry? It’s their babbling; let’s not mind them."
Huo Jincheng was also skilled at deflecting blame.
"Why would I be angry?" Lu Xingzhi glanced at Huo Jincheng, "I’m not angry!"
"Then why did you return to the room...?"
"I just had something to do. It’s all solved now, I can go back down." Of course, she wouldn’t tell Huo Jincheng that she had felt a sudden rush of heat in her body.
Once back in her room, sure enough, it was her monthly visitor.
"Really not angry?" Huo Jincheng asked, still worried.
"Do you know my current mood better than I do?" Lu Xingzhi snapped at him unhappily.
"Then can you tell me who Luo Qingchen is?"
