Chapter 1437
The Apple of the Ruthless CEO's Eye: My Sweet Wife Is so Adorable
Ye Nuan sighed. Even though she and Ling Xi werenât lovers, her motherâs words and actions in front of Ling Xi today were too personal. She couldnât agree with her motherâs opinion, but she knew that her mother had already decided on her own views over the years and wouldnât change so easily.
After some thought, Ye Nuan sent a message to Ling Xi, ââYoung Master Ling, lunch is not what you think. Iâm just having a meal with my mother. Thereâs no other meaning.â
After sending the message, Ye Nuan looked at it and was stunned. Why was she explaining all this to him?
She reacted and quickly chose to withdraw, but it was already too late.
â
In the dining room, Ling Xi returned to the private room and remained silent.
...
The atmosphere around them was very lively. Qiao Mu, Chi Xia, and Guan Baobei hadnât seen each other for a long time, so they started to talk about what had happened recently. Normally, Ling Xi would be the most lively among the men, but he hadnât said a word since he entered the private room.
â Young Master Ling, â Qiao Mu said with a smile, â you look like youâve fallen out of love. â
Hearing Qiao Muâs words, Ling Xiâs expression turned even uglier, and he said sullenly, ââYou havenât even been in love before. How can you be heartbroken?â
Qiao Mu was speechless.
Did these words come out of Young Master Lingâs mouth?
Even though his relationship with Ye Nuan was not confirmed, he kept talking about his woman and treated Ye Nuan as his property.
Qiao Mu was only joking, yet this Eldest Young Master actually denied his relationship with Ye Nuan!
It seemed like the fact that Ye Nuan was on a blind date had really agitated him.
Qiao Mu instantly felt sympathy for Young Master Ling. IQ did not represent EQ. Ling Xi had always been arrogant towards Ye Nuan. Even if he was nice to Ye Nuan, he would act as if he had done something great. He was so arrogant that it would be strange if Ye Nuan could understand his thoughts.
Qiao Mu did not know what to say. She looked at Li Yan and said softly, ââUncle, look at how depressed Young Master Ling is. Heâs so pitiful.â
Initially, Qiao Mu was just whispering to Li Yan, but everyone could hear Li Yanâs reply. ââHeâs pitiful? I think heâs embarrassing himself!â@@novelbin@@
Qiao Mu was speechless.
Uh, they were really good brothers!
As expected, Ling Xiâs face darkened after hearing Li Yanâs words, but he did not refute.
Lu Jingzhi laughed out loud. â Brother is right. Xiaosi is too embarrassing. His own woman went on a blind date behind his back. It seems like he is not attractive enough! â
Baby Guan nudged Lu Jingzhi. â Donât insult Young Master Ling like this. Young Master Ling has his own pride. How can he lose face like this? â
Qiao Muâs lips twitched when she saw that Baby Guan was righteously standing up for Ling Xi. Baby Guan did not realize that not only did her words fail to help Ling Xi out of his predicament, they even made Ling Xi lose more face.
Lu Jingzhi laughed even harder when he heard Baby Guanâs words. â My wife is right. Letâs give him some dignity. â
Ling Xiâs face darkened. â Have you guys said enough? A bunch of heartless people!â
Ling Xi looked at Su Chen, the only one who didnât laugh at him. ââSecond Brother, do you think they have no sympathy at all?â
âDonât you know what kind of people your brothers are?â Su Chen nodded and said lightly. Do you still expect us to comfort you when youâre heartbroken? Not adding insult to injury is already being kind to you.â
Ling Xi was speechless.
Although he knew, he still couldnât accept it!
