Andy: "You're going to go to too much trouble, aren't you?"

"It's nothing," Bai Ye said. "I was just hungry, so I cooked an extra portion for you."

Andy had nothing to say, so he stepped aside to let Bai Ye in.

"You two..."

Qu Xiaoxiao pointed at Bai Ye and Andy with a puzzled expression:

When did you become so close?

It wasn't like this before...

"Bai Ye saved us in the elevator before, and I was very grateful to him. Isn't it only natural that our relationship gradually improved?"

Andy tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and said.

However, there was a hint of guilt in her words that even she herself couldn't detect.

Before Bai Ye accompanied her to Daishan, she could say that openly and honestly, but... that night at Daishan, Bai Ye inexplicably... did that kind of thing.

This made Andy no longer dare to say that her relationship with Bai Ye was still completely innocent.

"What my relationship with Andy is none of your business," Bai Ye said with a smile, looking at Qu Xiaoxiao. "Don't you think you're meddling in other people's business?"

"You..."

Qu Xiaoxiao clenched her fists:

"Fine, I'm magnanimous, I won't stoop to your level!"

"If you have nothing else, you can leave now," Bai Ye said bluntly. "Andy has been working hard all day and just wants some peace and quiet. Your voice is so shrill, it will disturb Andy's rest."

Qu Xiaoxiao felt like she was about to explode with anger, but... this was Andy's house, and she still wanted to cling to Andy's coattails and have Andy take her along to show off and fly high, so arguing here wasn't a good idea. Besides... it seemed like she couldn't argue with Bai Ye or beat him.

"Andy!" Qu Xiaoxiao held back for a long time before she could finally suppress the anger in her chest. Then she looked at Andy, forced a smile, and said, "Since you're so tired today, I won't bother you any longer."

"Ok!"

Andy nodded slightly.

And so, Qu Xiaoxiao left Andy's house reluctantly.

"I really don't know what to say about Xiao Qu."

Andy sighed.

"She has too many thoughts and too many ideas, and she acts without any restraint. If you weren't Tan Zongming's guest, do you think she would use the same methods on you as she does on others? Would she still be so polite to you?"

Bai Ye chuckled softly and said:

"Alright, stop talking about her, it's pointless. How about trying my cooking? I haven't made stewed wontons in ages."

“It’s delicious.” Andy asked between chews, “How did you make it?”

Bai Ye smiled and said, "This is called Three Delicacies Wonton, a local delicacy of Shanghai, which is very popular. It's called Three Delicacies because it contains shredded egg, dried shrimp, and seaweed. But the key is in the soup. Try a sip of the soup."

"Mmm...this soup is so delicious!"

Andy looked surprised.

"Of course," Bai Ye said with a smile. "The soup of ordinary three-delicacy wontons is known for its deliciousness and is called shrimp head soup. As for mine... it is my own secret recipe. It would be more than enough to open a small restaurant."

"It really tastes great."

Andy nodded in agreement and said:

"If you really want to open a shop, I can invest in it for you."

white night:"……"

……

I left Andy's house.

Qu Xiaoxiao's mouth was full of curses, calling people losers, scumbags, and chauvinistic scoundrels...

It took a long time for things to calm down.

"I still can't understand it. When did those two get so close? There's definitely something fishy about it..."

"but……"

Qu Xiaoxiao's gaze sharpened.

"That loser has been getting in my way for so long that I've finally reached my breaking point."

"Before, I was too busy with the GI air conditioning project to play with a loser who knows a little kung fu. Now that the GI air conditioning project has fallen through, I have plenty of time to play with you!"

back home.

Qu Xiaoxiao took out her phone and called Yao Bin.

"Yao Bin, it's me, Qu Xiaoxiao! Go find a few people for me..."

Yao Bin: "Xiaoxiao, maybe we should just give up. I feel that person is very different from the people we've met before. I have a bad feeling about this."

"What a load of rubbish." Qu Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and said, "How could I, Qu Xiaoxiao, let someone ride roughshod over me... What's so great about that guy besides being a good fighter? Yao Bin, don't forget, last time even you got tricked into going to the police station by him, and now you're telling me to let it go... What, you're not chickening out, are you?"

Chapter 269 Anyone but you!

It's an open secret in their circle that Yao Bin likes Qu Xiaoxiao, except for Qu Xiaoxiao herself... Of course, she probably does know, but pretends not to, because Yao Bin's family is rich, even richer than hers. However, Yao Bin isn't good-looking, so Qu Xiaoxiao prefers to keep Yao Bin hanging on while she goes to play with other handsome rich guys.

Just like Lin Xian'er and A Fei: Anyone but you!

Qu Xiaoxiao could undress and use all eighteen techniques on a boat to seduce any handsome man she had never been with. Yao Bin genuinely liked her, but Qu Xiaoxiao pretended not to know anything and used brotherly affection to feign ignorance and deceive him.

According to the psychology of emotions, the more unattainable something is, the more it is cherished. Therefore, the more unwilling Qu Xiaoxiao is to go into prostitution, the better she can play the role of an innocent and pure goddess, and the more she can cling to Yao Bin and use his family and friends to do things for her.

Essentially, it's Qu Xiaoxiao's manipulation of Yao Bin.

So when Qu Xiaoxiao, Yao Bin's goddess, said he chickened out, Yao Bin couldn't take it anymore. His face turned red, and he shouted:

"I chickened out? You're kidding! When have I, Yao Bin, ever chickened out? Xiaoxiao, I'm going to get on with it right now! Just wait and see the show!"

……

night.

After Andy finished eating the wontons, the two chatted for a while before Bai Ye packed up and went home.

As Andy watched Bai Ye's retreating figure, he felt a sense of peace.

These past few days have been busy with Xiaoming's affairs, and I've fallen behind on a lot of work with Tan Zongming. Andy sat in front of the computer, looked at the schedule, and prepared to reorganize his work rhythm.

Online.

The singularity sent a message:

“Andy, I just got back from Europe. I’m sorry I used my wits on you last time we met. I just… it’s true, as Mr. Bai said, that I was hurt in a similar way before. The person I love left me when I was going through the most difficult time. So… in short, I was wrong last time. I hope we can meet again and I’ll treat you to a meal as an apology.”

Andy immediately thought of the way Bai Ye had teased people when they last met, and for some reason, she burst out laughing.

She typed and said to Qidian while laughing:

"Actually, I didn't take it to heart at all, so there's no need for me to apologize. Let's skip the dinner; I've been a bit busy lately. It'll be better if we just talk things out. But, actually, what my friend said makes some sense. When it comes to relationships, constantly testing someone isn't a good thing in the end."

"Distrust is actually a form of pre-emptive harm. Qidian, there's something wrong with your personality; you're too suspicious. I suggest you see a psychologist, otherwise, your life will definitely miss out on a lot of exciting things."

"It's not that I don't know people can lie, but I'm still willing to be the one to reach out first. I believe what you say, I believe your promises. I give you my back, an opportunity to hurt me, and a possibility of good. That's trust."

Wei Wei remained silent for a long time before saying:

"I see."

Andy understood from Qi Dian's brief message that Qi Dian had grasped her subtle rejection and would probably not bother her again in the future.

That's good, it avoids one more problem.

The next day.

Andy returned to the company and started working.

Xiaoming's condition was relatively good, so Dean Xiuyuan left with peace of mind. Andy, of course, couldn't stay in the hospital forever; she still had to work hard to earn a living for herself and Xiaoming!

Upon arriving at the company, Andy met Tan Zongming.

"Andy, you're back." Tan Zongming stepped forward and asked with a smile, "How did things go? I'm sorry, I've been quite busy these past few days and haven't had a chance to visit you."

“The doctor said my brother’s condition is pretty good, and there’s hope he can regain his ability to take care of himself,” Andy said. “There’s no need for a visit; I know you’re a very busy person.”

As he spoke, Andy paused, then asked curiously:

"Old Tan, what happened to your foot? It looks a bit..."

"Oh, it's nothing." Tan Zongming said casually, "I strained a muscle while playing golf. It's nothing serious, and it should be almost healed in a couple of days."

Well, actually, I was kicked in the knee by Bai Ye, and the force was quite strong, so it hasn't healed yet.

"Really? Have you seen a doctor?"

"I've seen it." Tan Zongming changed the subject. "Let's not talk about me anymore. Let's go to your office. Recently, Red Star has raised some new issues that need to be addressed."

"it is good!"

The two walked toward Andy's office.

"By the way, Lao Tan, I browsed the company's internal forum last night and heard that you and the company encountered something unusual."

Andy asked.

"It's nothing, just slander from some competitors. Don't listen to their nonsense." Tan Zongming's brows furrowed, but he then pretended to be magnanimous and said, "The company and I are both fine, there's no problem at all."

Andy nodded: "If there's anything I can help you with, just let me know."

We chatted for a couple more minutes.

Tan Zongming asked casually:

"Andy, don't you know what that neighbor who accompanied you to see Xiaoming does?"

"What?" Andy frowned. "Do you want to investigate him?"
