Chapter 392

Tong Yan listened to her rather lifelessly. In the end, he leaned on Xu Xinduo and she compromised.

As a result, after staying together for merely a while, Xu Xinduo’s mobile phone received a notification.

Tong Yan immediately hugged Xu Xinduo and prevented her from moving.

Xu Xinduo finally dragged Tong Yan and clawed him away from her before she picked up her mobile phone from the table. Glancing at it, she found that it was a message from Brother Zhang.

Brother Zhang sent a message to Xu Xinduo and asked: [Young Master Shao is not your boyfriend, right?]

Xu Xinduo thought the news was strange, so she just typed and replied: [No, we are just ordinary friends.]

Brother Zhang: [Then I’m relieved.]

Xu Xinduo: [What’s the matter?]

Brother Zhang: [There is a short video of you on Douyin that has quite a lot of likes. Someone recognized you and guessed that the boy who was helping you carry your bag was your boyfriend. I looked carefully, but that boy seems to be your brother?]

Xu Xinduo: [It’s a bit complicated. Although we are twins, we have different surnames.]

Brother Zhang: [As long as you don’t have a boyfriend, it’s fine, since you have the confidence and the truth to clarify it as well. Li Liya has been talking to me about the details of the contract recently, so nothing can go wrong at this point.]

Xu Xinduo: [Okay, I got it.]

Tong Yan had grasped onto Xu Xinduo’s body at the moment. Seeing this sentence, he became so depressed that he pointed to the phone and asked, “Do I have to ask Shao Yu if they’re planning to sell Star Entertainment?”

“Do you only know how to ‘buy’ your solutions to every problem?”

“I’m annoyed! So annoyed!”

“I’m going to take a photo with my brother tomorrow to clarify that we are siblings,” Xu Xinduo was still sending a message to Brother Zhang when she said so.

Tong Yan released Xu Xinduo and picked up a water glass to take a sip of water.

After Xu Xinduo sent the message, she looked at Tong Yan and said, “I’m currently a little busy and under contract, so I’m sorry that I have less time with you.”

Tong Yan looked at Xu Xinduo for a long time before he finally sighed, “Don’t overexert yourself— I want you to accompany me, but I also want you to rest earlier. You’re probably really exhausted today, so how about you turn in?”

Xu Xinduo kept staring at Tong Yan’s expression and asked in disbelief, “Really?”

“Mm, really. When am I being so unreasonable?”

After hearing this, Xu Xinduo actually climbed into bed and the fatigue of the day caught up to her after she laid down, making her fall asleep as soon as she hit the pillows.

Tong Yan sat by the bed, holding Xu Xinduo’s newly bought essay book in his hand as he skimmed through the essays. He felt bored during that period, so he gently took Xu Xinduo’s hand and kissed her on the tips of her fingers.

After reading the book for a while, he looked at Xu Xinduo’s sleeping appearance and Tong Yan’s eyes gradually softened.

She’s trying so hard, so he shouldn’t afford to slack off either.

He didn’t want to drag her down.

It’s no wonder that his father was despised and called naive by his mother. At this time, he also wanted nothing more than for Xu Xinduo to accompany him all the time. He also wanted her to look at him and only him.

Xu Xinduo took a photo with Mu Qingyi after obtaining his consent the next day.

The photographer was naturally Lou Xu.

This time, Lou Xu took the photo very seriously. After all, this was going to be used in the industry. She deliberately took the siblings around the school. Finally, she chose a place and took a group photo of the two of them.

The expressions of the two of them were exactly the same— they didn’t smile and just looked at the camera ever so indifferently. The gazes of the two people made others feel like the siblings were arrogant and cold, just like the snow in the mountains and ice in the valley.
