Qi Yanxi was still punching Sheng Yize.
Although, it would be more accurate to describe him as “getting punched.”
Scrambling to his feet and covered in dust, he refused to admit defeat, but kept lunging at Sheng Yize. He flailed all four of his limbs and even resorted to biting as he bellowed, “Damn you! How can you get engaged to Little Dummy Xia?! I’m challenging you to a duel!”
Sheng Yize couldn’t be bothered with him and solved the issue by kicking Qi Yanxi away.
“You’re nuts.”
Qi Yanxi rolled on the ground, whimpering.
Sob … so Little Dummy Xia had been there to discuss the engagement party? When would they have told him if he hadn’t heard it from Li Fanxing just then?
Mu Li felt so sorry for him. Helping him to his feet, she said, “Let’s stop the game… They’re both gone.”
By now, all the other players had been taken out by Sheng Yize and Qi Yanxi. Sheng Yize shot Mu Li before telling An Xiaxia to shoot him. He then took the bemused An Xiaxia to get her prize.
Qi Yanxi watched as they left. In his eyes were jealousy, discontent, resentment, and grievance…
He really didn’t want to see Little Dummy Xia marry Sheng Yize…
Now, at least, he could still watch her from afar and dream about the slightest possibility that he could be with her.
But after they got engaged or married, would he be deprived of what little privilege was left to him?
“Are you alright…” Mu Li asked in a low voice. “Are you not feeling well?”
“Gosh! You’re all in my face!” In his foul mood, Qi Yanxi snapped at Mu Li. “You just can’t leave me alone, can you? I’m miserable, can’t you tell?”
Mu Li shuddered and tears welled up in her eyes.
Qi Yanxi couldn’t bear to see women cry. He regretted it immediately at her reaction and said impatiently, “Fine, fine! I’m sorry! It was my fault and I shouldn’t have yelled at you!”
He left promptly after those words, leaving Mu Li behind to stand there crying for a long time.
Why… why could he care about An Xiaxia so much, but wouldn’t even look at her?
–
“Here’s your prize. We look forward to seeing you again.” The staff handed An Xiaxia the prize with a smile.
An Xiaxia held it in her arms, feeling rather dismayed, for the prize was… an electric rice cooker.
And it was a six-liter extra large one that had two layers and thicker sides…
Seeing someone as tiny as her holding a gigantic rice cooker, the others all chuckled.
An Xiaxia blushed and stuffed the rice cooker into Sheng Yize’s arms, which stopped the tittering right away.
Wait a minute, why did it look like a rice cooker commercial all of a sudden, and a very good-looking one, for that matter?
Speaking of which, this young man looked so familiar… what was his name…
Before anyone could recognize Sheng Yize as the ex-captain of Starry Night who had retired from showbiz, he held the rice cooker in one hand and led An Xiaxia with the other to the parking lot.
Once there, Sheng Yize opened the trunk to put the rice cooker in. Just then, the door of the car next to them opened and Li Fanxing walked out gracefully, having changed back into her own clothes.
“An Xiaxia, sometimes I find you so ridiculous. I bet you hate me so much. But hasn’t the one who hurt you the most been right next to you the whole time?”
An Xiaxia glared at her. “What do you mean?”
“I think what I said was pretty self-explanatory.” Li Fanxing shrugged. “I’m a woman of my word. Since you turned down the engagement today, I’ll have the case dropped…”
An Xiaxia let out a breath of relief. However, Li Fanxing then gave her a mesmerizing smile. “Although… I hope you won’t regret it…”
Because I’ll never let you off!
