Hearing Qin Xu's blunt rejection, Chu Xiaoxiao's heart suddenly hurt.
She did not deny that she had indeed intended to use Qin Xu as a spare. However, the confession she had made to Qin Xu earlier was not purely a lie — she was not completely emotionless towards him.
To be honest, when she was entangled between Qin Xu and Qin Chengqi back then, she couldn't help but be confused sometimes, and couldn't tell which one she actually liked …
Five years ago, she had selected Qin Chengqi not only because he confessed to his, but also because Qin Chengqi was the son of the Qin family's head, so it was reasonable to say that he was someone who should and would inherit the Qin’s more easily. That was why she agreed to Qin Chengqi's confession with ease during her birthday banquet five years ago.
And, what made her feel lucky was that after she had been with Qin Chengqi, Qin Xu had still not forgotten about her, which made her extremely pleased with herself.
She originally thought that as long as Qin Xu didn't fall in love and get married, he would still belong to her.
She had always thought that in her, Qin Chengqi, and Qin Xu's relationship, she would always be in the dominant position. Moreover, she would always have the absolute initiative – she would be able to easily accomplish whatever she wanted with anyone she wanted.
But now, Qin Xu had actually taken the initiative and rejected her mercilessly …
Besides being completely unexpected, Qin Xu's actions caused her to feel even more fear.
She and Qin Chengqi had separated, and had travelled a thousand miles to return to her hometown.
She could not afford to lose, otherwise, if she were to lose Qin Xu, her dreams of becoming a rich family would be completely shattered.
Chu Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then asked Qin Xu hoarsely, "Is it because of Ye Anne? Is it because of her that you turned me down? "
Chu Xiaoxiao was really upset this time.
She could not believe that she did not like him anymore, and in all of this, the only variable was Ye Anne …
Qin Xu replied from the other side of the phone: "It doesn't matter if there's Ye Anne or not, it's impossible between us. Of course, since Ye Anne is my girlfriend now, I can't possibly have anything with you.
"NO!" I don't believe it, you must be lying to me! " Chu Xiaoxiao did not believe what Qin Xu had said, nor did she want to believe it.
Ye Anne clearly looked like him, but if Qin Xu really didn't like him, then why did he find a substitute like this?
Chu Xiaoxiao started crying on the phone. As she cried, she found a reason for Qin Xu to reject her. She said: "You are purposefully using Ye Anne to anger me, right?"
Just as he finished speaking, Chu Xiaoxiao's mind suddenly thought of what Ye Anne said to her in the hospital yesterday. At that time, Ye Anne had said that she had been Qin Xu's sister-in-law for five years, and Qin Xu would definitely mind her relationship with him, so, he would definitely not be together with her.
At that time, Chu Xiaoxiao did not feel anything, but suddenly her heart jumped, and she anxiously asked Qin Xu: "Or should I say, do you mind my relationship with your brother?"
"That's enough, Xiaoxi!" Qin Xu finally could not hold back and interrupted Chu Xiaoxiao's words.
Honestly speaking, saying that Chu Xiaoxiao's breakup with his brother Qin Chengqi did not affect him at all was impossible — no matter what relationship he had with Chu Xiaoxiao, he would always side with his brother more. Although he didn't know the reason behind his brother's split with Chu Xiaoxiao, he could tell that this break up had hurt his brother even more, so he still resented Ye Anne a little in his heart.
However, on one hand, it was because of his brother's request and on the other hand, the two of them had stayed together for many years after all. Thus, on account of all these, he did his best to suppress his complaints.
However, Ye Anne's call today had pushed the relationship between the three of them into an even more awkward situation …
He didn't want the three people in the future to not even have friends, which was why he interrupted Chu Xiaoxiao's words.
Qin Xu suddenly sighed, and said helplessly but firmly, "Let's not talk about the past anymore. Calm down first. I'm a bit busy right now, so I'll hang up first. "
With that, he hung up the phone without caring about Chu Xiaoxiao's reaction.
Chu Xiaoxiao listened to the ringing sound coming from his phone, and was stunned for a few seconds. When she came back to her senses, her eyes were red with anger, and she smashed his own phone with a raise of her hand.
After throwing the phone, she felt that she couldn't get over her anger. She turned around and threw the other things in the room.
As she fell, her mind kept replaying Qin Xu's cold and heartless rejection, as well as his mocking and boasting last night in the hospital.
"Ye Anne!" Chu Xiaoxiao repeated Ye Anne's name again in a low voice. Then, she couldn't help but grind her teeth, as if she wanted to directly put a person into her mouth so that she could chew and understand air.
Although Qin Xu was unwilling to admit it, there was no doubt that the reason he rejected him was because of Ye Anne!
It was unknown what kind of Ecstasy this little bitch Ye Anne had given her. However, Qin Xu had actually avoided her suspicions because of her, and had even said that they would not meet again in the future …
Thinking about it, Chu Xiaoxiao was so angry that her chest heaved up and down.
After she smashed a few more things in the room, she slowly regained her composure.
She stood in the cluttered room for a few minutes, then went into the living room and dialed a number from the living room's home phone.
After the call connected, Chu Xiaoxiao said to the person in front of him with no expression on her face: "There's another woman called Ye Anne beside Qin Xu. Help me find out where she came from and how she managed to reach Qin Xu."
The person in front of him said something, and Chu Xiaoxiao laughed coldly: "Do your job well. As long as you do your job well, naturally you will benefit greatly from it."
When the answer came, Chu Xiaoxiao hung up the phone.
That phone call just now, not only did it make Chu Xiaoxiao angry and resentful, it also made Qin Xu's mood extremely bad.
After hanging up Chu Xiaoxiao's phone, he impatiently loosened her collar and didn't even have the heart to process the documents.
At that moment, the phone beside his hand suddenly beeped twice.
This was the WeChat notification on his phone.
Qin Xu casually unlocked the screen, opened WeChat, and found a message sent by Ye Anne, who was resting in the villa.
Ye Anne passed a photo to him first. On the photo, it was a pile of fresh ingredients that needed to be processed. Most of them were things that Qin Xu normally liked to eat.
Then, Ye Anne sent him another message: "I'm cooking at noon today, how about I give you lunch?"
At the end of the text, there was even a naughty smiley face.
Seeing that small smiling face, Qin Xu did not know why, but he actually also laughed, the depression in his heart suddenly lessened by half.
Qin Xu looked at the photo again. The beef in the photo was very fresh, it should taste really good if it was burned to tomato beef jerky …
But, he hesitated for a moment, then replied Ye Anne: "No need, I have lunch."
After he sent out his WeChat, Ye Anne quickly replied with a dejected expression.
Qin Xu touched the expression with his fingertip, imagining Ye Anne's lowered eyebrows, and couldn't help but laugh.
Therefore, he replied Ye Anne once again, "I don't have any other arrangements tonight, so I should be able to return home on time for dinner."
"Oh, then I'm a little tired at noon, so I can cook at night." Ye Anne quickly replied.
Qin Xu smiled and put down his mobile, he did not reply to Ye Anne's words, but on the glass wall at the side, his gentle facial features could be seen, compared to the when he was talking to him just now, it was as if they were two completely different people …
Time flew by as he worked busily. In the afternoon, Qin Xu got off work on time and returned home.
When he just arrived home, Nanny Hua immediately told him that dinner was already prepared at home, and it was all prepared by Ye Anne.
"The Miss Ye's culinary skills are quite good, and they are all cooking dishes that the Mr. Junior Qin likes to eat!" Nanny Hua praised Ye Anne generously as she helped him make the food.
Ye Anne also asked Qin Xu in anticipation, "Taste it, can you get used to it?"
Qin Xu picked up the chopsticks and tried each dish. Although he did not praise Ye Anne's culinary skills on the table, he still gave him face and finished all of the dishes Ye Anne cooked.
Ye Anne could not help but sneakily laugh. The atmosphere at the dining table tonight was clearly much better than last night …
After dinner, Qin Xu went back to the third floor. Ye Anne looked at his back and squinted his eyes.
When it was around eleven in the night, Qin Xu finally returned to his own bedroom from the study on the third floor.
He had probably eaten his fill during dinner, so after taking a shower, he couldn't fall asleep for a while. He took out his laptop and leaned against the headboard of the bed to manage his business.
However, just as he was about to type, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Who?" He stopped what he was doing and looked warily at the door.
"It's me." Ye Anne's voice transmitted through the room door.
Qin Xu frowned, he closed the computer, got up and opened the door.
But when the door opened, Qin Xu's brows knitted even more tightly.
He saw that Ye Anne was wearing an extremely sexy and sleepy look, and had deliberately caved in his figure, sticking out his body and leaning on the door frame. When he saw Qin Xu opening the door, he gave him a coquettish look.
"What are you doing?" Qin Xu asked.
Ye Anne looked into Qin Xu's eyes and answered very openly: "Since we are male and female, we naturally have to do some things that is between males and females."
As she said that, she squeezed from Qin Xu's side and into his room.
Qin Xu couldn't help but have a complicated expression on his face for a moment.
Logically speaking, he wanted to reject Ye Anne, but …
He turned his head to look at Ye Anne who had intentionally dressed up to tempt him — he had to admit that he had indeed been tempted.
At the moment, he didn't want to reject Ye Anne's suggestion at all. Moreover, he actually felt that what Ye Anne had said to him a moment ago was extremely reasonable …
