CHAPTER 619: CHAPTER 617: THE WOMAN WHO SAYS ONE THING AND THINKS ANOTHER (CHAPTERS 616 AND 617 COMBINED)

Yang Qiao said this, convinced he wasn’t that kind of person.

But very soon, Yang Qiao realized she was wrong again.

She pushed and shoved, but couldn’t budge him an inch.

So, she lifted her foot to kick him. Regrettably, he deftly dodged it.

Xiao Anze had only intended to scare her, but her committed kick instantly ignited his fighting spirit.

A sleepless night.

At the first light of dawn, Yang Qiao tiptoed out of bed and headed for the bathroom.

She didn’t see that at the moment she got out of bed, the man beside her was staring at her back with his eyes wide open...

After freshening up, Yang Qiao instinctively looked towards the man’s direction, saw that his eyes were tightly closed, apparently not yet awake, then she opened the door and walked out.

Outside the door, she took a deep breath, relieved that this long night was finally over, and she could leave the Xiao Family at last~

"Sister Yang Qiao~"

Yang Qiao was about to go downstairs when she heard Xiao Qing’s voice from behind. She turned in surprise, "Why are you up so early?"

Xiao Qing pouted, thinking to herself that if Xiao Anze hadn’t woken her with a phone call, she wouldn’t have gotten up so early.

However, she couldn’t let Yang Qiao know about that, so she said, "Xiao Bao doesn’t sleep well, he likes to kick, so I couldn’t sleep and got up. What about you, why are you up so early too?"

After speaking, she glanced in the direction of the next room.

Yang Qiao felt a bit awkward, "I... I woke up so I got up."

"I see~ Well, why don’t we have breakfast together?" Xiao Qing suggested.

"No thanks, I have something to do, I need to go..."

Yang Qiao hadn’t finished her sentence when suddenly a voice appeared behind her, coldly interrupting, "Yang Qiao, do you dislike me that much?"

Yang Qiao stiffened and looked in his direction, stammering, "I... I really have something to do."

"Heh, something? Yang Qiao, after leaving me, it seems your lying skills have only gotten worse."

Seemingly recalling something, Yang Qiao’s face tensed.

She must have been too nervous, hence why she forgot that there are hardly any cars passing by the Xiao Mansion. There was no way for her to leave.

At this moment, Xiao Qing couldn’t bear to watch any longer and gave Xiao Anze a look, "Brother, why don’t you take Sister Yang Qiao to have breakfast first, I’ll go wake up Da Bao and Xiao Bao."

Xiao Anze didn’t reply but after walking a few steps, he stopped, "You don’t even want to have breakfast with me?"

Xiao Qing sighed silently and pushed Yang Qiao gently, "Go, my brother is about to go to work, he can take you with him."

"... Okay."

Watching the two of them go downstairs one after the other, she turned and entered the bedroom, and saw Lu Jinyang coming out of the bathroom already changed into clean clothes. She pouted and said, "My brother really can’t give one peace of mind, I’m positive that if Sister Yang Qiao really doesn’t want him, he’ll stay single for the rest of his life."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinyang’s dark eyes shone, "Really?"

"Of course it’s true! Look at him, his words may sound harsh, but he still cares about her deep down, sigh~ Not everything is as it seems, men can be like that too~"

"Hm?" Lu Jinyang suddenly stopped and looked at her, "A woman who says one thing and means another, are you referring to yourself?"

Xiao Qing: "..." Couldn’t he stop pinpointing her like that?

"Lu Jinyang, you really deserve a beating when you talk!"

Leaving him with those words, Xiao Qing stormed off towards the large bed.

Lu Jinyang pinched the bridge of his nose, "I deserve a beating? Xiao Qing, are you upset because I didn’t touch you last night?"

"You’re the one who’s upset!" Xiao Qing turned around sharply and retorted.

She found that the longer she spent time with Lu Jinyang, the more she couldn’t help but want to bicker with him. Could it be she used to talk back to Lu Jinyang like this?

Speaking of which, if it was back when she first met him, where would she have gotten the guts to talk to him like this!
