Chapter 406: Chapter 406: What Exactly is Going On Between You and Lin Qinghuan (1) Chapter 406: Chapter 406: What Exactly is Going On Between You and Lin Qinghuan (1) Shang Qing stepped forward with a sneer, “Lin Qinghuan, always flaunting your high culture, how come after studying abroad for a few years, you’ve come back and can’t even speak Chinese coherently, talking about things completely unrelated to each other?”
Gu Qiaoqiao smiled wryly.
And actually, Shang Qing’s words were quite apt.
Lin Qinghuan hesitated for a moment before responding with a smile, “Seems like it, there’s really no connection, I just remembered Qiaoqiao’s cooking skills, her food is so delicious…”
“Her cooking is delicious because Qin Yize is lucky, what’s it to you?” Shang Qing shot back quickly.
Gu Qiaoqiao really wanted to give Shang Qing a thumbs up, her own response was half genuine, half false, “Ah Ze is lucky, that’s true, but it also depends on my mood…”
Lin Qinghuan’s expression froze for a moment, her hands clenched at her sides, and she grinned, “That’s right, Ah Ze is quite picky, there are many things he doesn’t like to eat. I remember when he was a kid, he didn’t like carrots and got a beating from Great Grandfather for it…”
“He still doesn’t like carrots to this day, so it goes to show, even when you grow up, the things you dislike remain disliked, there’s really no helping it…”
Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyebrows arched slightly, her words laden with meaning.
She understood Bai Yun, understood Choo Lan and the others, but she didn’t know much about Lin Qinghuan.
And Qin Yize rarely mentioned her.
But even when Qin Yize was with her, he never brought up other girls.
So, she didn’t know much about Lin Qinghuan, but indeed, Lin Qinghuan was not like other girls.
She seemed to have no romantic feelings for Qin Yize.
But if there were no romantic feelings, why look at her with such venomous eyes?
She remembered Qin Yize telling her that Lin Qinghuan came from a complex background…
And to avoid dealing with her.
Of course, there wasn’t any reason for them to interact anyway.
When Lin Qinghuan heard Gu Qiaoqiao’s pointed words, she took a deep breath. She was just probing a moment ago.
There was also an undeniable sense of envy she couldn’t suppress.
Yet to her painful surprise, she found Qin Yize and Gu Qiaoqiao were so affectionate with each other without her having any preparation.
It seemed like during the Spring Festival dinner, the two were still very polite to each other.
She had never seen Qin Yize look at a girl with such tenderness.
And she never knew, Qin Yize could be that tender.
This filled her heart with sourness and envy.
She thought, even if she didn’t end up marrying Qin Yize, she couldn’t let him look at Gu Qiaoqiao with such tenderness.
What she couldn’t have, no one should!
Lin Qinghuan looked at Gu Qiaoqiao without diminishing her smile, “There’s nothing absolute in this world, who knows whether you’ll love or hate something in the future? Just like when I was little, I disliked cilantro, but now I eat it just fine, don’t I?”
“What are you guys talking about? Come on, let’s hurry over there, they’ve all gone into the melon patch already, it must be fun, and it’s my first time seeing it…”
An Xiaotong, who had walked ahead, came back again.
She was impatient and grabbed Gu Qiaoqiao’s arm, “Come on, let’s go pick the muskmelons…”
So, Lin Qinghuan and another girl walked toward their companions.
Even within one clique, there were smaller factions.
Shang Qing wasn’t very familiar with Lin Qinghuan, had no particular feelings for her, but didn’t like her much either, because she had seen it just before, when Qin Yize bowed his head whispering intimately with Gu Qiaoqiao.
