Song Xi’s face darkened at once upon hearing this, and she retorted without courtesy, "How does my relationship with anyone concern you?"
The girl, hearing Song Xi talk to her without giving face, immediately looked even more displeased, but she was also aware that she might not necessarily be able to win if she started arguing with Song Xi.
After all, she had experienced Song Xi’s sharp tongue just a couple of days ago through someone else.
However, she couldn’t just let Song Qiao off so easily right now.
At that moment, Song Qiao’s phone rang. She took out her phone, looked at the caller ID—it was Lu Jingchen—and without hesitating, she swiped to answer the call and put it to her ear.
Before she could speak, the man on the other end of the call immediately said, "I’m downstairs at your company. Come down!"
"Husband." As soon as Lu Jingchen’s voice fell, Song Qiao spoke somewhat aggrievedly. Chapters first released on N0veI.Fiɾe.net
This made not only Lu Jingchen on the phone freeze instantly, but also changed the expression of the girl who had initially pushed Song Qiao. Naturally, she knew who the person calling Song Qiao was.
Only Song Xi, upon hearing Song Qiao call out ’husband’ so tenderly, felt her hair stand on end and even got goosebumps all over her body without any defenses.
Such tenderness must be suspicious!
After all, in her understanding, Song Qiao was always someone who wasn’t exactly tomboyish, but definitely not very gentle either.
Seeing her suddenly showing this sugary and bone-soft side was frankly quite frightening.
Even Song Xi internally screamed: Song Qiao, don’t do this, I’m scared!
When Lu Jingchen came back to his senses, he gripped the steering wheel tighter, and after a long moment, he hummed in a low voice before asking, "What’s wrong?"
Song Qiao had never talked to him so gently and aggrievedly before.
This sudden act from her really pleased Lu Jingchen.
It even softened his heart a bit.
"My foot is sprained, and I’m still in the office." In truth, Song Qiao didn’t feel that aggrieved inside, but somehow, upon seeing Lu Jingchen’s call, she couldn’t help but want to put on a show, so her voice sounded even more meltingly sweet to him, as if she was burdened with endless grievances.
In fact, her foot was indeed injured, and it was very painful, especially the piercing pain that hit when she just stood up, nearly making her tears fall too.
Fortunately, she was not that kind of overly fragile woman.
When Lu Jingchen heard that Song Qiao was injured, his face instantly darkened, he quickly pulled out the car key, opened the car door, and got out while speaking in a deep voice, "I’m coming up right now, don’t move, just wait there for me."
"Okay!" Song Qiao didn’t continue to act spoiled but agreed with a word as she acknowledged Lu Jingchen.
Upon hanging up the call, if that girl who originally caused Song Qiao’s injury still didn’t understand, it would prove she was really too naive. Furious, she immediately rushed towards Song Qiao, "You bitch, you must have drugged Master Lu to make him marry you..."
Seeing the girl charging at her with a furious face, Song Qiao leaned against the wall without moving, considering whether moving might worsen her foot injury.
But before she could say anything, Song Xi quickly grabbed the girl and fiercely threw her aside. It didn’t seem to need much effort, but she indeed knocked the girl to the ground.
"What are you doing? With me here, did I allow you to touch her?" Song Xi was also not someone to be trifled with, especially since these years under Song Qiao’s influence, she had strayed further and further from the path of a lady, and didn’t regard the girl before her seriously at all.
The girl clearly didn’t expect this turn of events. She had prepared for two days just to target Song Qiao, and although she finally managed to injure her, it was still messed up by Song Xi.
If she didn’t handle this matter well, that person would definitely not let her off.
Thinking of this, even though Song Xi threw her down, she got up without caring and said with a face full of rage, "Song Xi, you better get lost, don’t meddle in other’s business..."
