A Favor Done, A Husband Won

Chapter 695 - 689: Sweet Extra—Married Couple Variety Show 174

Meng Li: "But we were all really sitting together at the time, everyone can vouch for each other, even the director’s camera showed the same, none of us went to the kitchen, and when we came here, it was all together.""What about before that? Before we came downstairs from the hotel room, who came here?" He Xulun glanced at everyone present: "The director means that the cameras started only after we came downstairs, indicating no cameras captured here before that."

Ai Yiqing suddenly laughed and gently tapped He Xulun’s arm: "Lun, you’re so serious, could the culprit be you?"

He Xulun looked at her expressionlessly.

Ai Yiqing suppressed her laughter and said no more.

As everyone was explaining their evidence of not being at the scene, Luo Fang sighed and pointed at the false corpse, saying: "I actually just want to know what unspeakable appearance our crew’s cook has, I’ve never seen his face since the first episode, and now it’s good, he’s dead, and we still don’t know what he looks like!"

Wei Sinan laughed, placing a hand on Luo Fang’s shoulder: "Maybe he just doesn’t want you to see."

Ami was just about to move forward to see if there were any other details on the corpse.

Wei Sinan glanced at her, was about to accompany her over, but before moving, He Xulun suddenly stretched out his hand to gently block Ami: "Hey, Xiaomi, let’s not watch overly gory scenes."

While speaking, his arm naturally wanted to pull her over to his side.

Wei Sinan looked at He Xulun, but He Xulun calmly acted as if unaware of the deathly glare from the side, trying to take Ami away from the scene.

Ami was a bit surprised looking at him, not pushing him away, then turned in confusion to look at Wei Sinan.

She happened to meet Wei Sinan’s gaze looking at her.

The disagreement was clearly written in his eyes.

Ami wasn’t considering whether Mr. Wei would feel jealous, especially since Wei Sinan unexpectedly confessed the other day, it hasn’t been long, she hasn’t processed it fully, now with He Xulun’s interruption, she felt as if she was letting Mr. Wei down somehow.

"Where are you placing this melon seed?" Ami quickly slapped away He Xulun’s hand that was loosely around her waist.

He Xulun promptly withdrew his hand, touched his nose, and laughed while saying: "I didn’t really hug you, I just wanted to pull you away, I was still a bit away from your waist."

He said it like this, but the laughter in his eyes didn’t lessen, clearly intentional.

Ami froze for a moment, Wei Sinan seemed to understand something too, suddenly turned his gaze towards the director.

Mr. He seemed oblivious to Wei Sinan’s gaze, maintaining a serious demeanor focused on the "murder case" in front of him, continuing to assign new tasks to the guests.

Perhaps he couldn’t withstand Wei Sinan’s stare for long, Mr. He suddenly said: "Um, He, you go draw a circle around the corpse, be careful not to touch other evidence at the scene."

He Xulun then walked away from Ami, and Ami puzzledly returned to Wei Sinan’s side, looked up at him, pondered for a moment then instinctively stepped back a little to maintain some distance.

Unexpectedly, the man silently took a step closer to her direction, and as Ami looked up, he shielded her behind him, blocking He Xulun’s occasional glances in their direction.
