Chapter 729: With You (Part 29)
Chi He stopped in front of Yu Wanqing, and although not overly enthusiastic, he was at least respectful: "Lady Qing...""What is it?"
Chi He hadn’t finished speaking when he was interrupted by Yu Wanqing.
Moreover, she looked at him with a reluctant attitude.
Only Lady Qing would dare to adopt such an attitude with Chi He!
Now, the girls around were even more envious and jealous.
If it were Seventh Young Master’s man looking for them, they would crawl over if they had to, yet Lady Qing was just so nobly reserved!
Chi He’s expression remained unchanged. After Yu Wanqing finished asking, he finally said: "Seventh Young Master has asked you to meet him at the hotel, now."
"Oh, is that so?" Yu Wanqing raised her eyebrows.
Her attitude made everyone feel that even if Seventh Young Master sought her out, she wouldn’t take it too seriously.
"Yes, Lady Qing." Chi He nodded in response.
"Could it be that Lady Qing is throwing a tantrum with Seventh Young Master?"
"I bet that’s it. Seventh Young Master must have prepared a surprise, waiting for her to get there."
"Lady Qing is really lucky to have such a thoughtful and handsome boyfriend like Seventh Young Master."
"..."
The words of the women nearby were what Yu Wanqing loved to hear.
Since Chi He had come personally to invite her, she wasn’t worried he would suddenly run away, after all, it was Seventh Young Master’s order.
After hearing a few more pleasant comments that put her in a good mood, Yu Wanqing slowly got up.
"I’ll go then." Dropping three words, she didn’t even glance at Chi He and walked toward the lecture hall exit.
Why is Beicheng looking for her, and what for? Moreover, why set the meeting at a hotel?
Could it be that he is truly tired of Xia Yinian and has started to notice her?
From the current situation, this possibility didn’t seem very likely.
However, as the publicly invited woman, her mood was quite good.
She hasn’t made her move yet; what is Xia Yinian in comparison?
If she wanted to, not ten Xia Yinians could stand as her rival.
But, before making a move, she still needed to see if this man was worth the effort.
In terms of appearance or capability, Beicheng met her standards, with her only dissatisfaction being his attitude toward her.
If he could be a bit nicer to her, Yu Wanqing could be devoted to the end.
...
Back at the Feng Family’s home, it was already time for lunch.
Xia Liyuan and He Shuya were there as well. Hearing that Grandpa Xia was not feeling well and had gone back to the hotel to rest, Xia Yinian didn’t care.
Anyway, during these days at the hospital, she hadn’t seen Grandpa at all. Her dad and He Shuya had come over twice, but they left without saying much.
She had lived in the Xia Family for eighteen years and called him Grandpa for eighteen years, yet she wasn’t closer to him than she was to the recently known Grandpa Feng.
There was no helping it; after all, she was not of Xia Family’s flesh and blood.
Looking at the two people eating at the same table with her, Xia Yinian really couldn’t understand.
She was no longer her father’s biological daughter, and neither was Xia Chuxue; did her father really like raising other people’s children that much?
If she and Xia Chuxue were both foundlings, why was there such a world of difference in the treatment given to each?
In the end, she still didn’t believe that Xia Chuxue was Lady Sun of Feng Family.
"Nian Nian, eat more, look how thin you have become." He Shuya, sitting beside Xia Yinian, personally served her a piece of vegetable.
Xia Yinian turned her head to look at the woman beside her, unsure how to express her feelings.
He Shuya serving her vegetables seemed like it happened only this one time in her life? Anyway, as far as her memory went back, it was just this once.
Moreover, she was actually willing to sit together with her.
Was all this to please Grandpa? Maybe, but surely not to please her.
