Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 320 The Innocent Xiaoxian and Laura

"Zeng Xiaoxian, do you have a death wish?!"

Yifei was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth; she felt that this bitch was becoming more and more arrogant.

I haven't even investigated why he didn't come home all night, and now he dares to provoke me.

Absolutely unforgivable!

Yifei stepped forward, wanting to teach Zeng Xiaoxian a lesson.

Upon seeing this, Zhanbo and Wanyu rushed forward and hugged Yifei.

"Sister, calm down."

"The doctor said that what Teacher Zeng needs right now is understanding, so please be a little more accommodating to him."

"Let me go!"

Hu Yifei, who was being held around the waist by Zhanbo and Wanyu, was spitting fire with anger. She rolled up her sleeves and bared her teeth and claws at Zeng Xiaoxian, looking like a furious lion.

However, considering her exceptionally strong fighting ability, even the lion pride would probably have to avoid her.

"Tolerance? I'll tolerate your ass!"

Yifei grumbled, "Look at Zeng Xiaoxian, he's practically smug now."

"Others will take advantage of a little kindness, but this bastard is different. He dares to take advantage of a bad attitude even if you don't give him a friendly look."

"If I give him any more leeway today, he'll dare to use his illness as an excuse to act like he's in charge!"

Yifei looked fierce, but considering that the frail Zhanbo and Wanyu had actually managed to make her stand still and unable to move forward, it was clear that just how angry this raging lion was.

It can only be said that the arrogant type has been phased out, especially the kind of arrogant person like Yifei who is stubborn but soft-hearted and has a fiery temper, which is rare in the world.

"No wonder 3601 is so lively, starting a fight so early."

Ziqiao, wearing only a bathrobe, climbed over from the balcony. He waved his hand and said to the four people, "You guys fight it out, don't mind me. I just came over because I smelled something delicious and wanted to freeload a meal."

Wanyu asked, "Then why didn't you use the main entrance?"

He shrugged and said nonchalantly, "It's because the fragrance I smelled was coming in from the balcony."

Upon hearing this, Zhanbo muttered softly, "Luckily there are no pancake vendors downstairs, otherwise he would have definitely jumped."

Xiao Xian chuckled cheekily, "It's alright, there's a crooked tree downstairs."

The four of them glanced at Ziqiao sitting at the dining table and unanimously decided to end this farce.

If Ziqiao keeps arguing like this, they won't get anything to eat later.

The four sat down at the dining table in turn, and Ziqiao impatiently urged, "Where's the food? Give me the food."

"Hey."

Zeng Xiaoxian served a table full of Italian bacon and stewed snow peas with fries.

"Wow..."

Everyone was immediately captivated by the aroma of Italian bacon.

Wanyu said with a happy expression, "This is the best breakfast I've had in a month."

Ziqiao laughed heartily: "It was worth bringing all that equipment."

As he spoke, he produced a knife and fork from who-knows-where.

Yifei looked at the knife and fork in Ziqiao's hand in surprise, and then she lowered her head to examine Ziqiao closely.

Finally, unable to contain her curiosity, she asked, "Lu Ziqiao, you're only wearing a bathrobe, and it's a bathrobe without pockets."

"...So where did you bring this set of cutlery from?"

Yifei's words made Xiaoxian and the other two stare at Ziqiao with strange expressions. Their gaze went down, down, and down again... until their view was blocked by the table.

Ziqiao: "???"

"No, what nonsense are you thinking? Would I dare put something so dangerous there?"

Ziqiao patted the sleeves of his oversized bathrobe and loudly protested, "Sleeves, it's sleeves!"

"cut."

The group rolled their eyes at Ziqiao, and for some reason, they were somewhat disappointed.

They tasted a few bites of Italian bacon and nodded in satisfaction.

"I didn't expect that Teacher Zeng would not only cook for me today, but also make such a lavish meal."

Ziqiao chuckled mischievously, "Teacher Zeng, it seems your psychologist appointment yesterday wasn't a waste of time; you've finally taken the right medicine."

Yifei then started being sarcastic again: "I think this is clearly someone feeling guilty, afraid that we'll question him about not coming home last night. He's trying to shut us up with food."

"Nonsense, Laura and I were completely innocent last night, so why would I need to shut you up?"

Just as the group nodded in satisfaction at Xiaoxian's words, he added, "I was worried she wouldn't be used to Chinese food, so I thought we could all have a Western breakfast together."

"she?!!"

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances, and an ominous premonition immediately welled up in their hearts.

Sure enough, the next moment a graceful and sexy woman walked out of Zeng Xiaoxian's room.

Wanyu, Yifei, and Ziqiao looked at Zhanbo, only to receive a nod from him.

The three of them were now completely certain that this charming woman was Zeng Xiaoxian's ex-girlfriend, the super-duper ocean queen Laura.

Yifei was amused and exasperated: "Completely innocent?"

So all this talk about your innocence is just bringing your ex-girlfriend back to our suite for the night?

Laura was frantically rummaging through her bag, covering her ears, and calling out, "Xian'er, have you seen my earrings?"

"I'm running late. And you didn't even call me."

After Laura finished speaking, she seemed to belatedly notice the four astonished people sitting around the table.

"Hi, good morning!"

Laura waved to everyone warmly and generously. If the group hadn't seen her victim alliance file, Yifei and Wanyu would have thought she was a charming and graceful woman at first glance.

As for Ziqiao... he was only focused on eating bacon and didn't think too much about it at all.

The similar taste made him quite uncomfortable.

Hi.

The four of them waved and greeted Laura politely and courteously. If it weren't for Zeng Xiaoxian and the Italian bacon on the table, they wouldn't have wanted to talk to this sea queen at all.

Zeng Xiaoxian replied, "I should have put your earrings on the coffee table for you. Besides, didn't you say your meeting was at eight o'clock? So I didn't go to wake you up that early."

Laura explained, "The meeting is at eight, that's true, but I also have an appointment with Paul at seven-thirty. I can't be late!"

Ziqiao raised an eyebrow at Zeng Xiaoxian across from him with a cheeky grin and asked, "Who is this Paul?"

Zeng Xiaoxian beckoned to Ziqiao, then covered his mouth and whispered, "You know what? I heard that the dog at the gatekeeper Zhang's son's house is pregnant, and everyone's saying it was you who did it."

"How is that possible!"

Ziqiao nearly spat out the meat in his mouth: "What does my dog getting pregnant have to do with me?"

Xiaoxian gave Ziqiao's head a hard shove: "Then who is this Paul and what does he have to do with me?"

As Laura searched for her earrings on the coffee table, she explained to the group, "Paul is my college classmate. He's still unmarried because he's been waiting for me."

"He knew I was here, so he called and said he wanted to see me. He was crying his eyes out and said he would cut his wrists if he couldn't see me."

Everyone ate their bacon in silence, while Yifei forced a stiff smile: "So Paul is really quite devoted to you."

"Yes, but Paul stutters, and I don't have any feelings for him at all. I just don't want him to do anything stupid for me again."

Laura winked at Xiaoxian and said, "If we're talking about who I have a stronger feeling for, it has to be our Xiaoxian baby who's more charming and attractive."

"Xian... baby?" Upon hearing this, the four people's faces almost contorted together.

Such a disgusting name almost made them lose their appetite for the Italian bacon on the table.

Although Zeng Xiaoxian felt a little smug and secretly pleased, he was so embarrassed by the four people's disdainful looks that he wanted to bury his head in the table.

"Alright, Xian'er, I'll be going now. Don't miss me too much."

"No way," Zeng Xiaoxian chuckled dryly, "How could that be..."

The anger in Laura's eyes flashed for a moment, but in an instant she transformed back into her gentle and charming self.

"That's good."

It was as if she only then noticed the breakfast on the table. Laura gasped in surprise, covering her mouth, "Oh my god, Xian'er!"

"Is this the breakfast you prepared for me? It looks so delicious and makes me want to eat it."

Yifei muttered under her breath, "Sycophant."

She practically described these ordinary bacon and fries as a full-course Manchu Han Imperial Feast.

Zeng Xiaoxian nodded: "Yes, and they're all European style."

"If you have time, would you like to sit down and have something to eat together?"

Laura said with a look of annoyance, "Never mind, I forgot to tell you that I gave up breakfast three years ago."

"But seeing you prepare such a thoughtful breakfast for me first thing in the morning, I felt full instantly."

"Huh?" Zeng Xiaoxian was taken aback.

Did Laura give up breakfast three years ago?

We probably hadn't broken up yet back then, how come I didn't know?

[Oh yeah, we never had a chance to have breakfast together back then.]

"fine."

Zeng Xiaoxian smiled ingratiatingly and said, "It's not bad that you don't eat breakfast to maintain your figure."

"Then I'll be going now, Xian'er."

Laura picked up her bag with a smile, got up and left 3601.

Just before she was about to walk out the door, she turned back towards the dining table and, almost unconsciously, made eye contact with Yifei, who had been staring intently at her.

Laura's lips curled up slightly, revealing a contemptuous and mocking smile.

Those gentle, watery eyes now held only the determined gleam of a hunter on the hunt.

Yifei was startled for a moment, but when she looked again, Laura had already transformed back into her gentle, graceful, and poised self.

She then waved goodbye to Zeng Xiaoxian, Yifei, and the other two, saying, "Bye-bye."

"Bye-bye." Zeng Xiaoxian waved to Laura rather awkwardly.

Although Yifei and the other three disliked Laura, they still did their best to be polite, forcing a fake smile and waving at her.

"Bye-Bye."

After Laura left, Zeng Xiaoxian smiled obsequiously at Yifei and the others, saying, "Never mind her, let's eat first, otherwise the bacon and fries will get cold."

"I can't eat."

Everyone was really disgusted by Laura just now, and even Zi Qiao lost his appetite because of the overly strong smell of his own kind.

They put down their chopsticks and forks, crossed their arms, and looked at Zeng Xiaoxian with serious expressions.

"Being a jerk!"

"shameful!"

"idiot!"

"Self-greening!"

Zeng Xiaoxian felt uneasy under the scrutinizing gazes of the four people, and he quickly explained in response to their repeated criticisms.

"First, I want to clarify two things."

"First, nothing happened between Laura and me last night."

"I slept in room 3603 last night. You can ask Nanfeng later if you don't believe me."

"Secondly, Laura and I are just friends now."

"I only made breakfast for her out of politeness, that's all."

Ziqiao chuckled and teased, "Xiaoxian, are you talking about the kind of friend you mentioned at the bar—the kind you can date, chat, sing, have fun with, and who doesn't have to take responsibility for?"

"Disgusting!"

Zeng Xiaoxian vehemently denied it: "I'm a good man, how could I have such filthy thoughts?"

"Lola and I are just friends now, the purest kind of friends."

Wanyu pounded on the table and complained, "Teacher Zeng, even though we have such a pure friendship, I haven't seen you get up early to make me breakfast!"

"Miss, I even made breakfast especially for you."

Zeng Xiaoxian was speechless: "With your pampered frame, do you expect me to buy lobster or abalone for breakfast?"

Upon hearing this, Wan Yu actually thought about it seriously, and then her eyes lit up: "I still prefer Kobe beef."

"My goodness, Kobe beef..." Zeng Xiaoxian said irritably.

He simply started tearing at his clothes and said in a spoiled manner, "We don't have Kobe beef, but do you want some Xiaoxian ribs?"

Yifei glared at Zeng Xiaoxian: "Trying to be a pervert in broad daylight, huh?"

"no."

Zeng Xiaoxian chuckled awkwardly, "I was just joking with Wanyu."

"I'll joke around later."

Yifei slammed her hand on the table and began to press, "I'm asking you, why didn't you come back all night last night?"

"And since you're just friends now, why did you bring her back to spend the night?"

Zeng Xiaoxian sighed: "This matter is quite complicated."
