Ling Ziqian didn't need to explain to her, but the fact that he did shows he cares about her feelings.

It took Dou Xiaorong quite a while to bring the breakfast over.

Su Mingxi was a little restless, and she spoke to Ling Ziqian, "Brother, you and Xiao Rong have known each other for many years, right?"

Ling Ziqian nodded, wondering what Su Mingxi wanted to say.

"The relationship between you two..."

"Snapped!"

Ling Ziqian felt a little embarrassed. He raised his hand and flicked Su Mingxi's smooth forehead.

This guy probably wants to play matchmaker for himself and Dou Xiaorong, helping them to break the ice.

But she didn't know that Dou Xiaorong rejected his confession for her sake.

These two sisters were a major headache for Ling Ziqian.

"You know the promise I made with Xiaorong, so don't say things like that again." Ling Ziqian's expression was somewhat serious.

"Um, I'm sorry..." Su Mingxi touched her forehead and apologized sheepishly.

"No need to apologize, it's not a big deal, we can talk about those things later."

Ling Ziqian sipped his tea, while Su Mingxi stole glances at him from the corner of her eye.

I don't know when he meant "later".

It's January now, and the college entrance exam will be in June.

According to the agreement, Ling Ziqian could start dating after the college entrance examination, but everyone would be separated at that time.

Su Mingxi couldn't help but think about this.

At this moment, Dou Xiaorong brought over a bowl of noodles with a smile.

Ling Ziqian was eating noodles when his phone vibrated in his pocket.

He took it out and saw that it was a call from Yu Meiren.

After swiping to connect, Ling Ziqian called out, "Sister Beauty."

Surprisingly, it was Huan Yue's voice that came through, "Hehe, you should call me Sister Huan Yue!"

"Pfft..." Ling Ziqian spat out a mouthful of noodles, startled. He roared with a dark face, "Hey, don't play on your phone if you don't have anything to do, or you'll scare my mom!"

"Hehe!" Huan Yue laughed smugly. "Did you think I was talking to you on the phone in cat form?"

"If it's not a cat, then..."

"Hehe, you have no idea how much flirting value I collected last night! Not only did I turn back into a human, but I can also stay outside all day. I can finally spend some quality time with Cupid! Waaah..."

Ling Ziqian was speechless. It seemed that a lot of ambiguous moments had been generated last night, but Huan Yue had stolen them all!

"You spendthrift woman!" Ling Ziqian roared with a dark face.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, but I'll thank you. How about I give you a kiss?"

"..." Ling Ziqian was speechless. "And then what? Why did you call me? To show off?"

"Oh, I forgot about the important matter. You'd better prepare yourself!"

"You didn't do something utterly heinous, did you?"

Ling Ziqian had a bad feeling.

Su Mingxi and Dou Xiaorong sat to the side, looking at each other, unable to guess who Ling Ziqian was talking to on the phone.

"Well, here's what happened," Huan Yue said sheepishly. "Sister Mei went to the market to buy groceries, and Cupid and I were minding the shop when a guy came in. He wasn't there to buy a cake; he was there to collect protection money. People who collect protection money are definitely bad guys, and then..."

Huan Yue seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

Ling Ziqian was covered in sweat. "And then what? Did you resist?"

"Um..." Huan Yue chuckled sheepishly, "I kicked him, and I think I popped his balls..."

"What do you mean by 'seems similar'?" Ling Ziqian roared, dumbfounded.

"Anyway, you should come back soon. When that person left, he said a lot of unpleasant things, like he wanted to tear down the cake shop or something."

Hearing what Huan Yue said, Ling Ziqian lost his appetite for breakfast.

After hanging up the phone and putting down his chopsticks, Ling Ziqian got up to go back.

Seeing the puzzled looks on Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi's faces, Ling Ziqian quickly lied, "My cousin came over. That guy was clumsy and caused some trouble. I need to go back and deal with it. You two have fun. I'm going back now."

"Cousin?" Su Mingxi looked at Dou Xiaorong with a puzzled expression.

"..." Dou Xiaorong was speechless. She had known Ling Ziqian for more than ten years and had never heard of him having any relatives. Now, a cousin had suddenly appeared. It was really strange.

The two men stood up, wanting to go back with Ling Ziqian.

Those who collect protection money had their balls kicked by Huan Yue, so they probably won't let it go.

If Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi go back with them, they won't be of any help, and they'll probably just get scared.

“That guy is very shy. Let’s introduce him to you another day.” Ling Ziqian’s expression was somewhat serious.

"Is she really my cousin?" Dou Xiaorong pouted, feeling a little jealous.

"Yes, she's Xiao Ai's cousin," Ling Ziqian explained.

Upon hearing this explanation, Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi immediately understood.

To conceal his identity as Cupid, Ling Ziqian told many lies.

Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi both thought that since Cupid used to live in someone else's house, it wasn't surprising that she had a cousin.

Ling Ziqian hurriedly went downstairs and left.

Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi did not follow along.

Seeing Dou Xiaorong's resentful gaze, Su Mingxi laughed, "What's wrong, are you jealous?"

"You're the one who's jealous!" Dou Xiaorong retorted to Su Mingxi. "He has another younger sister, and your position as that younger sister is in danger!"

"What do you mean by status?"

"Hehe, let's not talk about that. I recently found a few movies, let's watch them together!"

What type of movie?

"Do you like romance movies?"

"is acceptable."

"It's about love between siblings!"

"..."

After leaving Dou Xiaorong's house, Ling Ziqian took a taxi back to the cake shop.

Ling Ziqian got off the bus at an intersection and walked quickly toward the cake shop.

A crowd of people were watching the commotion outside a convenience store on the street.

A faint sound of crying could be heard from the crowd. Ling Ziqian frowned and quickly walked over.

Chapter 268 I just happen to love eating rotten apples!

The thugs were shouting downstairs, telling Ling Ziqian to come down, but unexpectedly he started getting intimate with a girl.

The five or six thugs downstairs were furious and pounded on the door even harder!

After being kissed several times by Huan Yue, his silver watch instantly accumulated over twenty points of "ambiguity value." (The rest of the text appears to be unrelated and possibly machine-generated gibberish.)

With his ambiguous relationship level, Ling Ziqian is invincible.

He strode downstairs, sweeping away the thugs like autumn leaves in the wind, and instantly knocked them to the ground.

Those people didn't expect Ling Ziqian to be such a good fighter. He got up from the ground and they hurriedly ran away.

They left, and Ling Ziqian went back upstairs.

I thought those people would be afraid of me.

They were indeed afraid, so they didn't dare to come directly to us, but instead resorted to underhanded tactics.

Ling Ziqian was watching TV. Cupid and Huan Yue were snuggling together, whispering to each other.

My phone vibrated; it was Shen Qiaoyan calling.

As soon as the call connected, the guy started yelling, "Master, where are you? Someone threw disgusting stuff in front of the cake shop!"

Ling Ziqian left the living room with a puzzled look and went to the balcony.

Shen Qiaoyan stood downstairs and saw Ling Ziqian appear. She hung up the phone with a face full of black lines. "Master, you're home? Why is the shop closed? By the way, why are all the shops nearby closed?"

Looking downstairs, Ling Ziqian saw the disgusting thing Shen Qiaoyan had mentioned.

Those were bags of feces bombs packed in plastic bags!

It was definitely those people who caused the trouble!

Ling Ziqian went downstairs with a dark expression. He opened the shop door and pulled out a hose from the kitchen to wash away the disgusting mess in front of the cake shop.

Shen Qiaoyan rushed over to help, asking in confusion what had happened.

Ling Ziqian gave a brief explanation, and Shen Qiaoyan immediately flew into a rage, waving her fists and shouting that she would beat those people to a pulp.

Cupid and Phantom Moon came downstairs, both of them carefree and not worried about such things.

Upon seeing Huan Yue in her maid outfit, Shen Qiaoyan's eyes lit up.

"Wow, are you cosplaying?" Shen Qiaoyan reached out and touched Huan Yue's ears. She then scratched the long tail, exclaiming excitedly, "It's so realistic!"

Huan Yue laughed awkwardly and hid behind Cupid-chan.

After the initial surprise, Shen Qiaoyan came to her senses and looked curiously at the baby-faced Huan Yue, "By the way, whose child are you?"

“She’s my cousin,” Cupid-chan replied with a smile.

"Oh, so she's my cousin too, hehe, call her 'big sister'!" Shen Qiaoyan giggled at Huan Yue.

Huan Yue actually called him "sister," which made Ling Ziqian furious. That girl was clearly a little devil. Pretending to be a cute girl was infuriating!
