Helian Xi was genuinely surprised!
Given Lu Xingzhi’s emotional intelligence, this kind of thing should have been unnoticed.
"Even if my emotional intelligence is low, it doesn’t mean I’m blind." Besides, Lu Xingzhi believed that her emotional intelligence wasn’t low at all.
Just as high as her intelligence.
But, that’s just what she thought.
Anyone who knew her wouldn’t admit it.
"Now that you mention it, I remember that every time the three of us were together, you always found an excuse to leave." Helian Xi had some impression now, looking at Lu Xingzhi, "How did you notice?"
Forget it, she decided not to chat with Little Zhi Liao anymore. The conversation would really die.
But, was it really that obvious that Gu Jin Yan liked her?
Thinking of this, Helian Xi glanced over at Gu Jin Yan. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovelfire.net
She discovered that he was looking at her too.
She quickly averted her gaze and pretended to be looking somewhere else.
Gu Jin Yan smirked; is she trying to be an ostrich?
"Zhi Zhi, this is for you." Huo Jincheng came over with a plate of grilled meat, "Eat up!"
"Brother, you’re playing favorites! I’m your cousin, can’t you grill a little for me too?" Helian Xi said, feeling a pang at how her brother had turned into a doting husband since Little Zhi Liao came along.
Though they weren’t married yet.
But it wasn’t far off.
If Little Zhi Liao told him to go east, he wouldn’t dare go west!
"You know you’re only a cousin, not a real sibling." Huo Jincheng said without a care.
Lu Xingzhi was just about to give two skewers of meat to Helian Xi when she saw Gu Jin Yan coming over with a plate of meat too. "Here comes yours."
"Xiao Xi, this is for you." Gu Jin Yan came over and handed the plate to Helian Xi.
"Brother, Sister-in-law." Gu Jin Yan greeted them.
"Hmm. Well done." Of course, Huo Jincheng could see what Gu Jin Yan was up to.
Gu Jin Yan was pleased. Was this an approval?
"Zhi Zhi, let’s go eat over there." Huo Jincheng took Lu Xingzhi to an area with tables and chairs.
"Lu Lu, I grilled two chicken wings for you." Edmond, who was invited by Lu Xingzhi, felt bad that she hadn’t entertained him properly since he arrived, so today she called him over.
"No need, Edmond, she has enough from me." Huo Jincheng declined on behalf of Lu Xingzhi.
"Oh, come on! Olston, are you misunderstanding something? My uncle asked me to take good care of Lu Lu; I only see her as a sister." Edmond felt wronged; why were they treating him like a wolf!
"No need, she only needs my care." Huo Jincheng couldn’t care less. Even if they were blood relatives, the whole brother-sister thing should just go away.
"Lu Lu, your man is too petty, how can he get jealous so easily? I already have a girl I dearly love." Edmond was thinking of finding her after this whole thing was over.
When talking about the girl he loved, Edmond had a goofy grin.
He looked like the fool son of a landlord’s family.
"Is the girl you love in France?" Lu Xingzhi asked casually.
"Actually, she’s in Hua Country." Edmond replied.
"But haven’t you never been to Hua Country?" Huo Jincheng questioned his statement.
"This is my first time here. But we met through WeChat’s drifting bottle."
