Chapter 712: Heartbroken! Never even fallen in love (2)
âWhich day?â
âYour brother has set the date for the banquet.â
Jiang Qi was suddenly enlightened,âabout you being Xia Ling, I should be the one apologizing. I misunderstood you that day. You know what kind of person Xia Ling is, but you had no choice at the time, so you could only blame me for not believing me and for being stupid. I almost blamed you and my brother for what happened.â
âAt that time, I didnât want you to continue to be confused and was afraid that Xia Ling would be suspicious, so I could only say that I was afraid that I would tell others about the mistakes you had done in the past and that I was very sorry.â
Jiang Qi waved her hand, not caring at all,ââItâs okay. I know you donât think that way. We know each otherâs secrets, and we wonât tell anyone. But master handsome, thereâs something I want to say. I know you like my sister-in-law, but sheâs already with my brother. Thereâs nothing between you two, so I suggest you look at the people around you.â
He Shigui furrowed his brows, not knowing how to reply to her.
Jiang Qi continued,âthey say that the best way to forget someone is to start a new relationship. After a long time âŠâ
He Shigui interrupted her,âyou might have misunderstood.â
âMisunderstanding?â
He Shigui didnât eat the plum in his hand. After holding it for a while, he put it back and looked at Jiang Qi seriously,â âYou misunderstood me at the hot spring. I didnât tell you because I didnât think it was necessary, not because I was threatened by you. Besides, youâre just a child. Thereâs no need to explain this to you. Besides, they had just gotten together at that time. I didnât think that they would definitely get married, so I didnât think there was a need to explain. Now that theyâre engaged and weâll be relatives in the future, thereâs something I have to tell you. The relationship between my girl and I is family. It doesnât matter if sheâs treating me or Iâm treating you, so I hope you wonât say such things again. Itâll cause a lot of trouble for them if others misunderstand. â
Jiang Qi looked at him in confusion.
Her beautiful master meant that he didnât like her.
They were only family.
But, she didnât feel like that was the case before. ButâŠIf that was the case, it was a good thing. Jiang Qi couldnât help but smile.
Why didnât he explain it clearly in the past? today, he had to explain it clearly.
Was it really just because her brother and sister-in-law were engaged?
Could she be part of the reason?
With this thought, Jiang Qiâs heart suddenly beat faster, her cheeks and ears burned. She touched her ear shyly and said,ââMaster handsome, why donât we try?â
He Shigui was a little stunned as he looked at Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi swallowed her saliva and looked at he Shigui carefully. Her heart started to twist nervously.
He Shiguiâs expression darkened. Before Jiang Qi could say anything, he suddenly stood up,âmiss Jiang, itâs getting late. You should go back.â
Jiang Qiâs face turned pale as an indescribable pain appeared in her heart.
She didnât move as she looked up at he Shigui and muttered,ââMaster handsome, are you rejecting me?â
He Shigui laughed and asked,ââDo you know what our relationship is?â
