Chapter 206
As soon as these words were spoken, Ji Fei's mind suddenly jolted to attention.
[Wait, isn't this an opportunity? What a coincidence! My lipstick is so considerate, and you, Qin Xian, you're truly my lucky star!]
Ji Fei immediately looked at Luo Zhou with eyes full of anticipation.
If Luo Zhou hadn't been distracted, he would have been able to see Qin Xian's entire act from his position, but he missed it. Seeing the situation, he prepared to get up to show them the way.
Ji Fei quickly said, "No need, just tell me where it is, I can find it myself."
[I can't let Luo Zhou come along. Regardless of whether Tang came here to confront Luo Zhou face-to-face, I can't interfere with people's fate like this. Watching drama unfold is fine, but actively creating drama isn't - that's the professional integrity of a drama spectator.]
"Huh?" Luo Zhou was taken aback.
"Don't worry, your sister-in-law is still in the makeup room, she'll take care of things." Luo Cheng came over at this moment, presumably having overheard their conversation, and said to Ji Fei with a smile: "It's the first room on the second floor, very easy to find. There's nowhere off-limits in our house, feel free to look around if you're interested. The garden in the back and the rooftop terrace both have nice views."
Reading the situation, he had probably noticed their boredom, since the other guests hadn't arrived yet and the wine tasting hadn't officially begun.
The young people in their family were indeed getting bored.
Ji Fei once again felt that Luo Cheng was really nice. In fact, people from such prominent families could treat her very differently, but so far, Luo Cheng's attitude had been gracious and friendly. From another perspective, he respected Qin Xian, so he respected Qin Xian's wife. In this regard, he did better than his wife and brother.
Once again casting a sympathetic look at the elder brother, she thought: how could such an excellent person encounter this kind of situation? He deserves better!
Ji Fei quickly stood up, eager to go watch the drama unfold.
Without noticing, Qin Xian also got up and followed her.
However, before leaving, Qin Xian felt the strong resentment from his family members.
Well, it made sense for him to follow his wife, they couldn't all go together.
Knowing they couldn't go, they could only endure and pray that within range, Ji Fei's inner thoughts could be transmitted down to them, providing a live broadcast of the first-hand drama.
Luo Zhou was stunned for a moment when he saw Qin Xian unhesitatingly following Ji Fei.
Well, from the class reunion until now, he still hadn't gotten used to it.
"What kind of magic does Ji Fei have, making your second brother change so... unfamiliarly in just half a year?" Luo Zhou couldn't help but ask Qin Zhao beside him.
Qin Zhao glanced at Luo Zhou and said, "It's the magic of love. They're husband and wife, it's normal to stick together. What? Don't you and your girlfriend stick together? Don't you like being close?"
Luo Zhou felt like he'd been unexpectedly hit by an arrow, his expression turning uncomfortable. He assumed Qin Zhao had unintentionally touched a sore spot, so he didn't plan to answer.
Then Qin Rong suddenly joined in: "Second Brother Luo, where's your girlfriend? Didn't she come?"
Hit by another arrow, Luo Zhou could only force himself to say, "She's busy."
Finally, Qin Yan said leisurely, "Oh, so Young Master Luo has a girlfriend? We've never heard about this before."
Hit by a third arrow, Luo Zhou: ...
Did they really have to bring up this topic?
Actually, only friends and family knew he was dating someone, and since he had never brought her out in public, and being the rich playboy that he was, most people would hear about it and forget. Even his family didn't really care about this girlfriend whom Luo Zhou had never brought home to meet them, assuming he was just playing around as usual.
After all, they had heard about him dating before, but never saw the person before they broke up, never knowing who the other person was from start to finish.
The Luo family had already gotten used to this.
At this time, other guests were starting to arrive one after another, so Luo Cheng took Luo Zhou to greet the guests.
Meanwhile, Ji Fei had reached the edge of the battlefield, but encountered a small situation. This situation wasn't about Qin Xian following her.
Although Ji Fei was initially confused about Qin Xian following her, before she could think too much about it, she heard voices coming from the makeup room. The voices were very clear, anyone who had come up the stairs could hear them.
"I don't believe this is a coincidence. You hired me twice, and this time you paid such a ridiculous price to get me here. What's your purpose? I'm not stupid. You don't need to test me, I knew from the first time that my so-called boyfriend was the Luo family's second young master."
[Wow, the door isn't closed?! And here I was planning to eavesdrop sneakily from outside.]
Just then, someone gently grabbed her wrist.
Ji Fei turned around to see Qin Xian giving her a look, suggesting they should just listen while leaning against the wall.
[Oh, so Qin Xian is also this gossipy. Well, who could resist eavesdropping when hearing such crucial dialogue?]
Ji Fei was always willing to share, so she specifically took out her phone to type and let Qin Xian know that the person inside was Tang.
Qin Xian cooperatively showed a surprised expression.
Ji Fei became even more excited.
"So your brother-in-law pretended to be poor to trick Tang into dating him?"
Qin Xian frowned, expressing disapproval of Luo Zhou's behavior.
Ji Fei felt relieved. Fortunately, they shared the same values and both felt there was something wrong with Luo Zhou.
If typing hadn't been inconvenient, Ji Fei would have wanted to have a good discussion with Qin Xian about this.
The conversation inside continued.
"So, you knew all along and still maintained the relationship. Sure enough, knowing he's the Luo family's second young master, such a wealthy person, how could a girl like you bear to let go? However, our brother-in-law isn't good either, deceiving you like this. I apologize on his behalf."
[Damn, even plastic bags aren't as fake as she is! I really want to see what expression she's making right now.]
Ji Fei casually complained, when suddenly her phone was taken from her hand.
Ji Fei watched in surprise as Qin Xian opened an app on her phone, switched the camera, extended his arm, adjusted the angle, zoomed in the image, and soon, Ji Fei could see the scene inside the room on the phone screen.
Xuan Yi was now standing face to face with Tang.
Seeing these operations, Ji Fei widened her eyes and looked at Qin Xian.
[This guy is too amazing, he even masters paparazzi skills like this?]
Aliali: 6749083ac4f3f33ac4814cd4Qin Xian's hand trembled, almost ruining the shot, his mouth twitching - this was just basic math and physics.
Ji Fei was delighted; this meant they had both sound and image.
[Hehe, then you can't blame us for peeking... wait? Why isn't the door closed? Aren't they afraid of people finding out? They couldn't possibly think no one would come up, right?]
The Qin family members were eavesdropping downstairs.
Then they saw other Luo family women whispering with Mrs. Luo, and because they were sitting close, they could hear:
"Is your hair done? Don't you want to go up and fix it?"
"No, this is fine."
"Then I won't go up to touch up my makeup either, let's attend to the guests first."
[Could it be... damn, it really is. Xuan Yi was waiting for the Luo family women to come up for makeup or touch-ups, to see everything, to let everyone know about the wrong relationship between Tang and Luo Zhou, paving the way for their breakup, completely cutting off any way back. Wait, as a sister-in-law and ex-girlfriend, how can she be so intolerant of the current girlfriend? She's going to great lengths to prevent them from being together.]
"I hope you don't blame him, he didn't mean to do this... there were... reasons."
