Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 765: Secrets the Boyfriend Can’t Know

Upon hearing this, Ji Weitian was stunned, and turned to look at Zhang Lingying.

Just as she was about to ask if she was serious, she suddenly heard Qin Nanyu beside her sharply begin, "How do you know Leng Jian?"

At that moment, Ji Weitian remembered that Qin Nanyu didn’t know she had asked Leng Jian to help investigate the scandal.

Her heart skipped a beat, and just as she was about to say something, Zhang Lingying had already answered Qin Nanyu’s question.

"We’ve met, you know. The last time with the scandal, Weitian had him come to see me. To think about it, we’re really fated—getting on well at first sight, even had a drink together. If I weren’t afraid of scaring him away by being too forward, I’d have wanted to take him home that very night..."

Zhang Lingying paused halfway through speaking and turned to look at Ji Weitian.

She raised her eyebrows, "Miss, just say it, do you agree if I flirt with your friend?"

Zhang Lingying spoke so quickly that Ji Weitian had absolutely no chance even to hint, and she had already blurted everything out.

When Ji Weitian turned her head to look at Qin Nanyu, she found him gazing at her intently, his expression reverting to its icy demeanor, speaking very deliberately.

"About last time, you went to find Leng Jian?"

"..."

"Ji Weitian, don’t you trust me?" Qin Nanyu’s dark eyes became slightly heavy, the fog within them seeming to freeze into frost.

"It’s not like that. What’s wrong with finding Leng Jian? Why do you all seem a bit off?" Zhang Lingying belatedly noticed the strange expressions on the two, somewhat bewildered.

"Isn’t Weitian good friends with Leng Jian? Just now, I heard them talking in the restroom..."

Zhang Lingying stopped abruptly.

As she noticed Qin Nanyu’s expression turn even uglier than before.

The whole person seemed to be enveloped in gloom, suddenly turning his head to look at her!

Zhang Lingying, frightened by his gaze, took a step back, her body tensing as she nervously licked her lips, "Did... did I say something wrong?"

"What did you just say? They were chatting on the phone in the restroom?" Qin Nanyu spoke somberly.

Zhang Lingying: "..."

Zhang Lingying finally realized what was off.

Because of Leng Jian.

How could she forget? She could easily see Leng Jian’s feelings for Ji Weitian; how could Qin Nanyu, such an intelligent man, not notice?

She even brought up Leng Jian in front of him...

Thinking of her foolish act, Zhang Lingying herself started to panic.

Just as she tried to explain, Qin Nanyu had already closed his eyes, turned around, and looked toward Ji Weitian.

He spoke nonchalantly.

"I only left for a moment, and you hid in the restroom calling Leng Jian. Come on, tell me, what secrets did you discuss that your boyfriend can’t know?"

"..."

Ji Weitian was too intimidated to respond, and even Zhang Lingying felt a chill listening.

She wanted to run, yet felt it started because of her and leaving Ji Weitian alone would be too unrighteous.

But in the matter of their relationship, she wanted to help but was completely unable to.

Qin Nanyu, his face sullen, did not notice Zhang Lingying’s inner turmoil; all his attention was fixed on Ji Weitian.

Seeing she dared not look at him, his eyes deepened even further.

What he cared about wasn’t that Leng Jian liked Ji Weitian; he trusted she only saw Leng Jian as a friend.

What he couldn’t accept, or perhaps what he was jealous of, was that whatever issue she encountered, her first reaction wasn’t to turn to him but to Leng Jian...

What exactly was Leng Jian’s place in her heart?
