Chapter 173

Chapter 173

The moment their gazes met in midair, Qin Yunhe’s expression immediately shifted from a smile to an indifferent look.

Xu Lin quickly stood up and walked straight toward her. Although every wife is precious, his responsibility to this one was the greatest.

“Yunhe, what a coincidence.”

“Coincidence? Who are you? Do I know you?”

“Qin Yunhe, is there a misunderstanding?”

“I didn’t misunderstand. Your daughter is so cute.”

“Qin Yunhe, listen to me. This is not an explanation, what I’m about to say is the truth.”

Xu Lin put on a serious face, and Qin Yunhe squinted her eyes, taking a deep breath.

“You have 20 seconds.”

“I don’t need that long.”

Xu Lin directly took her hand. Not far away, Ye Fanleng was also stunned.

What’s going on? Holding hands so suddenly?

This made the already somewhat angry Qin Yunhe panic.

What’s happening here?

The nearby waitress, holding three large bowls, stood there in a daze.

Why did Sister Qin suddenly get pulled away? Aren’t they a family of three? Should I go over?

After sitting down, Qin Yunhe looked at Ye Fanleng across from her and nodded. Ye Fanleng also nodded back.

“President Ye, this is my girlfriend.”

Xu Lin, holding Qin Yunhe’s hand, said this very seriously while looking at Ye Fanleng.

Since Qin Yunhe was his first woman, if he didn’t even dare to acknowledge her as his girlfriend because of the favorability system, he might as well get out of their lives!

If he didn’t have the courage and sense of responsibility, he didn’t deserve to be with them!

“Girlfriend... really? Huh?” Ye Fanleng was also a bit confused.

How did a girlfriend suddenly appear?

“Who said I’m your girlfriend? Really! Did I agree?”

Qin Yunhe quickly interrupted him, but her previously cold face now held a smile, showing her emotions without any concealment.

“Your dumplings are here.”

Seeing the situation calm down a bit, the waitress quickly put the tray down, set the chopsticks and spoons, and hurriedly left.

“Let me introduce myself. I’m Qin Yunhe, just an ordinary friend of Xu Lin.”

“Oh, Ye Fanleng, Xu Lin’s... friend.”

“Hello.”

At this moment, Xiao Shaoyao lowered her head and put down the rice dumpling in her hand, pouting.

“Okay.”

Qin Yunhe moved closer to Shaoyao as Xu Lin walked away to get the soup. He seems to like this little girl a lot.

“Little one, what’s your name?”

“Mom calls me Jiangli, but everyone likes to call me Shaoyao. Dad... I mean, brother also calls me Shaoyao. Sister can call me Shaoyao too.”

“Shaoyao, don’t talk nonsense. Xu Lin is not your dad yet.” Ye Fanleng said casually, but her intention was clear.

Qin Yunhe was now completely sure that this woman was greedy for her Xu Lin’s body.

That won’t do!

“President Ye, when did you meet Xu Lin?”

“We met in Jinling.”

“Oh, so not long ago. Are you single, President Ye?”

Recently, she had been talking to Xu Lin a lot to get to know him better, and he had been very honest with her. He did mention meeting a CEO in Jinling, but he didn’t specify if it was a man or a woman. He must have done that on purpose.

“Single, but I’m looking for a boyfriend lately.”

“How about Xu Lin?”

“Didn’t Xu Lin say you’re his girlfriend?”

“He’s pursuing me, but I haven’t agreed.”

“Do you know Miss Chu and Sister Ji?”

“I do. They’re not his girlfriends either.”

This Sister Ji is Sister Ji Yun, a student of Wanwan. She met her at dinner last time, and she is indeed very beautiful.

As for Miss Chu, Xu Lin mentioned her too, a rich lady. Seems like there might be something between them?

No wonder he keeps saying he’s a playboy. If I don’t agree to be his girlfriend soon, other women will take him away.

Turns out he wasn’t lying. I need to find a chance to talk to him properly. But today, since he declared me as his girlfriend, I’ll forgive him a bit.

At this moment, Xu Lin returned, sitting next to Shaoyao and serving her some pine nut tofu soup in a small bowl.

Then he placed some small pieces of meat on her plate.

“Eat slowly, don’t spill on your clothes.” Ye Fanleng also helped her daughter roll up her sleeves.

“Okay.”

Watching Xu Lin and Ye Fanleng taking care of Xiao Shaoyao, Qin Yunhe felt a pang of jealousy. Does Xu Lin like children?

But unlike in novels, she didn’t get pregnant right away... Besides, she needs to work hard, and he’s still young. They’re not ready to be parents yet.

I need to stay calm. Qin Yunhe, you must stay calm. Don’t fall for this woman’s provocation with her daughter!
