Chapter 734: Pseudo-Truths 4
No wonder, that day Seventh Young Master’s assistant was so anxious to find Yu Wanqing, turns out they really are a couple.Xia Yinian watched the approaching figure, also frozen in place.
She didn’t know how to feel, truly unable to describe it with words.
Suddenly, it felt like a place in her heart had... emptied.
"Nian Nian, what’s wrong with Nian Nian?" Yuan Yaying pushed Xia Yinian, "Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
She didn’t think much of it, who Seventh Young Master is with doesn’t really affect Yuan Yaying, after all, he could never belong to her.
However, watching him walk together with Yu Wanqing, she still felt a bit uncomfortable.
A woman like Yu Wanqing simply doesn’t deserve her idol.
Yuan Yaying just exhaled sharply, then felt better, but when she realized Xia Yinian seemed not right, she became concerned.
"Don’t scare me, Nian Nian, are you feeling unwell?" Why is her face so pale?
Yuan Yaying’s voice pulled Xia Yinian back to consciousness.
"It’s nothing, I just remembered something," she turned to look at Yuan Yaying, speaking softly.
Both significant figures had arrived, the emcee announced the ribbon-cutting ceremony was about to start.
When Xia Yinian looked up, her eyes met with Feng Yan’s, and she stepped forward.
The whispering voices of everyone ceased at this tense moment.
From alighting the car until now, Yu Wanqing had been clinging to Gu Beicheng’s arm, with no intention of letting go.
Seeing Xia Yinian walking in front of her, Yu Wanqing didn’t feel very good.
The smile at the corner of her mouth remained, while she held onto the man beside her, quickening her pace.
But her composed and graceful actions did not lose any elegance.
Today she and Beicheng are the protagonists, even if Xia Yinian is tangled with Third Young Master Feng, Yu Wanqing won’t allow her to walk in front.
As they approached the steps, Xia Yinian felt a chill from behind.
It was Uncle, he had arrived.
She paused, then once again started walking forward.
With so many people watching, she couldn’t embarrass herself, especially since she came with Third Young Master today, she definitely couldn’t lose face for him.
Thinking this over, Xia Yinian didn’t overthink and ascended the steps at a normal pace.
The injury on her lower back wasn’t completely healed, and she could only walk in a way that seemed normal to onlookers.
But going up steps is different from walking on flat ground; each step brought a twinge of pain to her lower back.
Xia Yinian bit her lip and continued forward.
Unexpectedly, just as she slowed down a bit, the person behind had already caught up.
"Beicheng, Nian Nian seems a bit uncomfortable, what exactly is wrong with her?"
Yu Wanqing turned to look at the man beside her, performing an act of an elder’s concern for a younger family member.
She didn’t know where Xia Yinian was injured, but she felt something was off.
Because her gaze was still on the man, Yu Wanqing accidentally stepped on the hem of her gown while ascending the stairs.
"Ah!"
She lost her balance, her grip on the man’s arm loosened, and she immediately fell forward.
Yu Wanqing had calculated the angle well, the way she pounced now would perfectly shunt Xia Yinian.
She had intentionally fallen, so of course, she could stabilize herself at the crucial moment, moreover with a man by her side.
Now that they are in a romantic relationship, Beicheng definitely wouldn’t ignore her plight, right?
Xia Yinian sensed the looming danger and instinctively turned around sharply.
Her lower back wasn’t right; she didn’t want the person behind to touch her waist.
If her waist was hit again, it might not heal properly for a long time.
