Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Fang Yi’s attitude was simply too oblivious!

Qian Zheng became even angrier and said, “It’s not good for you to do this. Sister Xi is here and you want to sit beside her boyfriend? Those who don’t know might think that you’re General Xiang’s girlfriend!”

Fang Yi had originally intended to sit down after saying this, but she did not expect Qian Zheng to say this. She lowered her eyes and smiled. “Brother Huai and I are like siblings. Don’t misunderstand. I think Xue Xi won’t be so petty. Do you mind?”

After saying that, she smiled at Xue Xi. “Xue Xi, don’t think too much. There’s really nothing between Brother Huai and me.”

That attitude made Qian Zheng so angry that she wanted to flip the table.

She had always been well protected by Qian Xin and had never been humiliated like this outside. Just as she was about to speak, a deep male voice suddenly sounded. “Are you very free while at work?”

The rest paused and looked at Xiang Huai in confusion.

Work?

Among the people present, only Fang Yi needed to work. She turned around in surprise and saw Xiang Huai lowering his head to glance at the watch on his wrist. “It’s office hours now.”

Fang Yi bit her lip.

She understood.

Xiang Huai was chasing her away.

Her expression changed as though she had been slapped.

But how could that be?

Didn’t Brother Huai allow her to share the table?

Fang Yi wanted to say something, but when she met Xiang Huai’s eyes, she swallowed her words. She tensed up and took a deep breath before saying, “Yes, it’s office hours, so I won’t sit. I’ll leave first.”

She lowered her eyes and was about to leave when she heard a voice behind her. “Wait a moment.”

Fang Yi paused and turned around happily. “Brother Huai?”

Did Xiang Huai know that he had gone overboard and came to coax her?

Just as she thought this, Xiang Huai picked up the Black Forest cake on the table and raised it at her.

Fang Yi heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiang Huai was so unreasonable when he chased her away, but they still grew up together. Look, wasn’t he giving her a cake to eat?

She immediately put on a shy expression. “Brother Huai, the Black Forest is your favorite. Since you were young, no one has been able to snatch it from you, but are you giving it to me? Thank you...”

She reached out, but just as she was about to touch the Black Forest cake, Xiang Huai loosened his grip and the cake fell into the bin!

Fang Yi: “!!!”

She widened her eyes and looked at Xiang Huai in disbelief. The man smiled casually. “Sorry, I don’t like eating the Black Forest anymore.”

After saying that, he looked at Xue Xi, who seemed to have yet to return to her senses and was still standing there blankly. He told Fang Yi calmly, “However, I don’t think you will like the Black Forest anyway. If you want to eat cake...”

He looked at the table and finally took out a green cake and passed it to her. “Here, this green tea cake will suit your tastes better.”

“...”

Green tea.

Nowadays, this word had become a derogatory term on the Internet. It was an insult.

Fang Yi’s face turned pale as she widened her eyes. She did not expect Xiang Huai to speak to her like this.

In the past, although Brother Huai did not accept her, he had always maintained an appropriate distance. He had never made her look bad.

She clenched her fists and her expression changed. However, in the end, it turned into a smile. She lowered her head and looked at the cake. “But this is a mocha cake, not green tea. So, I won’t eat it. Thank you.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked out!

Unfortunately, if she wanted to leave, she had to pass by Qian Zheng. Just as she walked over, she saw Qian Zheng beaming with joy as though she had won. She flaunted, “Tsk, they grew up together! Why doesn’t she even know what General Xiang likes to eat? Don’t tell me she’s a fake childhood sweetheart?”

Fang Yi: “!”

She ignored Qian Zheng and continued walking forward. However, just as she took two steps, she heard Qian Zheng sigh. “Sigh, in this day and age, simply growing up in the same city can make people claim they’re childhood sweethearts with someone. But where did so many childhood sweethearts come from?! Some people just flatter themselves. Pui!”

Fang Yi was so angry that her face turned green as she strode away.

After Fang Yi left, Qian Zheng stuck out her tongue and complained, “Some people will take advantage of others if they give them some face. Hence, when dealing with such people, they should not have given her a chance from the start!”

After saying that, Qian Zheng looked at Xiang Huai and saw that the man’s eyes were cold. She was so frightened that she recalled the identity of the person in front of her. Hence, she hurriedly held Xue Xi’s arm and seemed to have found a sense of security. She then said weakly, “Sister Xi... Sister Xi? Eh, what are you thinking?”

Xue Xi returned to her senses.

Just now, when she was helping Fang Yi treat the patient, for some unknown reason, she felt as though a fine electric current was flowing from her palm to her body.

It made her feel a little lost. It was as though something had been learned, but also as though nothing had happened.

Before she could figure out this situation, Qian Zheng shook her and she returned to her senses. She asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”

Qian Zheng coughed. “Sister Xi, don’t you have any comments about what just happened?”

Xue Xi: “?”

What just happened...

She slowly frowned and her expression changed.

Xiang Huai could not help but sit up straight when he saw her like this.

Eh? Is the little kid jealous?

However, she slowly said...
