Chapter 61: Mr. Xue, Your Name Long Precedes You

Translator: Peggyan and Ruriko

Lin Xiaomi found that she didn’t dare to think about it at all.

“We just met in the bathroom just now,” said Leng Yihuang lightly.

Lin Xin’er introduced herself sweetly. “Hello, I’m Lin Xin’er, Xiaomi’s sister.”

Seeing the tender hand before him, Leng Yihuang shook it and said, “Lin Hai.”

One year older than Lin Xiaomi, Lin Xin’er had hands as soft as that of a newly born baby, which clearly showed that she had never done labor work, so she could protect her hands so well.

Lin Xiaomi had soft and tender hands, too. But, there were calluses on her palms. Such a comparison made Leng Yihuang’s heart ached.

“I don’t feel well. Let’s go.” Lin Xiaomi suddenly stood up and wanted to leave after grasping her bag. She didn’t want to stay here any longer.

Each time Lin Xin’er fixed her eyes on Leng Yihuang, Lin Xiaomi wanted to scream.

She couldn’t allow Lin Xin’er to grab her only friend away.

However, Lin Xin’er blocked Lin Xiaomi on the way Lin Xiaomi left.

Lin Xin’er held Lin Xiaomi’s hand with force and said, “Xiaomi, why do you want to leave after seeing me? Haolin is here, too. Let’s eat together.”

Speaking of which, Lin Xin’er looked back at Xue Haolin. Then, the latter had long noticed what happened there, stood up, and walked over.

Lin Xin’er said, “Haolin, what a surprise! Xiaomi eats here with her friend, too. How about eating at one table?”

Lin Xiaomi introduced Leng Yihuang as a friend, which made Lin Xiaomi feel more nervous.

Xue Haolin and Lin Xiaomi didn’t look good, but Leng Yihuang stood up and said ahead of them, “Sure.”

Then, he passed by the table and sat beside Lin Xiaomi.

In that case, Xue Haolin and Lin Xin’er sat opposite them.

Lin Xiaomi didn’t know why Leng Yihuang agreed on this proposal. Didn’t he know any minute here only made her more suffering?

That went worse especially when Lin Xin’er recklessly looked at Leng Yihuang, the latter smiled at the former.

Lin Xiaomi was like sitting on pins and needles and even turned overly negative.

She was sure that Lin Xin’er wanted to snatch Leng Yihuang away from her. Based on what Leng Yihuang acted, Lin Xiaomi guessed that he was also deluded by Lin Xin’er’s kind disguise.

Forgot it! Never mind! She didn’t care about it after all.

Thinking of this, she felt that her heart was eaten by sourness and felt suffocating with tears welling up in her eyes until her hand was covered by a warm palm.

She lowered her head and saw Leng Yihuang’s hand holding hers.

She then subconsciously twisted her head sideways to look at Leng Yihuang who was smiling. Out of the blue, he lifted her hand to touch his mouth regardless of the two people in front of them and asked intimately with concerns, “What’s wrong? Why are your hands so cold? Are you uncomfortable?”

He slightly leaned over her.

For the first time, she didn’t reject his intimacy. More importantly, she felt very delighted.

Right at the instant, Lin Xiaomi was 100% sure that Lin Xin’er wouldn’t snatch him away.

Glad and relaxed, she gave him a smile that clearly showed her joy and was like the first spring rain, ushering all blossoms and beautifying the entire summer.

Confronted with her attractive smile, everything around became colorless.

She rarely smiled so happily. When the two men saw the smile, they were struck and forgot to make reactions.

Leng Yihuang tightened his hold of her hand, ravishingly looked at her smile, and bent over to kiss her mouth without a second thought.

Lin Xiaomi hadn’t seen this coming, so she hurriedly shrank herself to stop him with her hands against his chest in terror.

Pushed away by her, he then regained his consciousness and laughed at himself.

Damn it. His resistance to her gradually faded away.

However, so what if he kissed her. After all, she seduced him in a public place.

He thought so and unhappily pinched her small hand.

She felt the pain, frowned, and subconsciously counterattacked by kicking him under the table.

Their movements made some noise and drew the attention of the others at the same table.

Xue Haolin saw Lin Xiaomi flirting with another man with his brow knitted and felt somewhat annoyed at the thought of what she had done to him lately.

Xue Haolin even furiously considered Lin Xiaomi a woman unwilling to be lonely who quickly shifted her target after knowing that he wouldn’t take the bait.

Lin Xin’er looked very bad and even forgot to sustain the smile she usually feigned.

In her eyes, the relationship between Lin Xiaomi and that man was pure. At most, they were just friends, for it never crossed her mind that that man would take fancy on Lin Xiaomi.

She couldn’t accept their intimacy.

Why? Why did all of them like Lin Xiaomi?

What qualities did Lin Xiaomi deserve their obsession?

She put her hands under the table and sneakily clenched her fists.

Xue Haolin called a waiter to take the order.

Of course, this meal was quite rich.

Lin Xin’er asked euphemistically to start a conversation, “It’s the first I have seen Xiaomi eat with a man. Are you two colleagues?”

“I’m Xiaomi’s boyfriend.”

With a stiffened smile, Lin Xin’er weirdly glanced at Lin Xiaomi and Xue Haolin and said, “Really? I’ve thought...”

Her glance had too many meanings, plus her unfinished words, making paranoid people feel suspicious.

However, Leng Yihuang acted he didn’t hear that and said while looking at Xue Haolin, “Mr. Xue, your name has long preceded you. I drink a toast to you.”

Xue Haolin had seen various kinds of people and knew that Leng Yihuang wasn’t what it looked like at first sight.

But, Leng Yihuang’s eyes gave him a feeling that Leng Yihuang loathed him.

Xue Haolin wasn’t afraid of this and raised his glass of red wine to collide with Leng Yihuang’s. “Likewise.”

When they emptied the glasses, Leng Yihuang suddenly, “Thank you.”

Xue Haolin raised his brows and felt confused.

But, Leng Yihuang didn’t explain it to him.

Ho!

Thanks for Xue Haolin blindly treating Lin Xin’er as the pearl.

Otherwise, how could Leng Yihuang pick up the real treasure!
