Jing Hanchuan saw Fu Chen’s call on the way to the hotpot restaurant, but he was in a bad mood and didn’t answer.

Because of Fu Chen’s engagement banquet, although it was just a few tables of people having a meal, Xu Yuanfei had specially created some beautiful cupcakes. After working hard for a few days, she finally had time. Jing Hanchuan wanted to ask her out for a meal, but she said that she had gone to the countryside to visit relatives.

According to what she had said, she would take a train back and arrive in the capital at five in the afternoon. She didn’t ask Jing Hanchuan to pick her up and only said that she would go straight home.

Jing Hanchuan had just established a relationship with her. Although he didn’t say it, he definitely wanted to interact more with her.

Even if they didn’t do anything, it was good to have a meal quietly.

!!

So he went to the station to wait in advance. There were a lot of people, and even after time passed, he still didn’t see her. But he received a message from Xu Yuanfei.

[I’m already home. What are you doing?]

Jing Hanchuan narrowed his eyes and replied: [I want to see you.]

Xu Yuanfei was also a little helpless. She had indeed returned to the countryside and had just arrived home. But she had arranged to eat hotpot with her brother. If she went to see Jing Hanchuan now, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

With her brother’s temperament, he would definitely say, “I’ll go with you.”

She could only decline politely and say that she was busy.

Jing Hanchuan just wanted to see her. He hesitated but still got someone to check her background again. He planned to go straight to her house and take a look from afar.

If Xu Yuanfei found out about this, she would definitely feel uncomfortable. It would feel as if he didn’t trust her. He even specially reminded his subordinates to do things cleanly.

In the end, the information they found was the same as before. Xu Yuanfei seemed to be floating in the air, as if everything was fake.

At this moment, the Jing family found out that she was in a hotpot restaurant.

Moreover, she was with a group of boys?

Jing Hanchuan’s fingers kept rubbing the documents in front of him. He gritted his teeth. He asked her out, but she said she had something to do. Was it to go out and eat with others?

***

Inside the hotpot restaurant...

The Xu siblings had returned to the countryside to visit their relatives and had eaten wild vegetables for a few days. In addition, the elderly ate light food.

On the way back, Xu Yao started shouting, “A bird is about to leave my mouth.” He wanted to eat something strong, so he made a reservation to eat hotpot with Xu Yuanfei in advance.

He had also arranged to meet a few colleagues. They were all interns who joined the company in the same batch and were all men.

The group of boys all knew that Xu Yao had an older sister, but they didn’t know that she was so good-looking. When everyone sat around the table, Xu Yuanfei was older than all of them present, so she naturally greeted them.

Two shy boys even blushed because of this.

“Big Sis, are you dating someone?” a bold one couldn’t help asking.

Before Xu Yuanfei could speak, Xu Yao interrupted her. “Definitely not.”

“Then, can I pursue you... Ow—”

Before the man could finish speaking, Xu Yao kicked his calf. “Don’t have any ideas about my sister.”

“I...”

“Do you think I don’t know what kind of person you are? Didn’t you just break up with your girlfriend? You want to hook up my sister? What do you take my sister for? Not to mention me, even my dad can kill you.”

Xu Yao’s words were half-joking.

Everyone laughed when they heard this and didn’t take it to heart at all. They didn’t take the idea of killing people seriously at all.

Xu Yao added, “Don’t provoke my sister. Someone will really die.”

“Alright, don’t scare them.”

When a group of boys gathered together, there would always be endless topics to talk about. But Xu Yuanfei realized that Jing Hanchuan didn’t reply to her messages.

What is he busy with?

“You guys eat first. I’m going to the restroom.” Xu Yuanfei picked up her phone and walked to the restroom.

“Big Sis, do you want me to accompany you?” Xu Yao immediately asked.

“Xu Yao, your sister is just going to the restroom. Why do you have to follow her?” everyone teased.

“No need. I’ll be right back.”

Xu Yuanfei walked toward the restroom.

She walked to the corridor and made sure that Xu Yao didn’t follow her before calling Jing Hanchuan.

The call quickly connected. Xu Yuanfei leaned against the wall and lowered her head to stare at the tip of her shoes. “Are you busy? Am I disturbing you?”

“No.” His voice was cold and calm, making Xu Yuanfei a little depressed.

The two of them had confirmed their relationship at the ski resort that day, but afterward, they had always been indifferent. Their intimate actions were just holding hands and hugging. There was nothing else. It seemed different from the relationship she had expected.

“Then...” Xu Yuanfei bit her lip. “Have you eaten?”

“Not yet.”

“Then, go eat quickly.”

“Okay.”

The two of them exchanged a few words calmly. Xu Yuanfei took a deep breath and returned to the table to continue eating.

She kept feeling that there was something wrong with Jing Hanchuan today. Was he angry because she rejected him too many times today?

Xu Yuanfei had something on her mind, so she naturally couldn’t eat. She was distracted.

...

At this moment, Jing Hanchuan had already arrived at the hotpot restaurant.

He wanted to see what kind of wild man she had rejected her boyfriend’s invitation for.

A Jing family member leaned over and whispered, “Sixth Master, Miss Xu and her group are on the second floor.”

“Okay.”

There were a lot of people in the hotpot shop. The white steam rising from the pots made the entire shop smoky. Jing Hanchuan frowned slightly. The smell of various hotpot pots was slightly pungent.

As soon as he entered the second floor, he saw Xu Yuanfei. There were seven people at the table, and she was the only woman. The hotpot restaurant was crowded with people, and there were wait staff walking back and forth. The entire hall was noisy. When Jing Hanchuan and his group arrived, Xu Yuanfei was still waiting for his reply with her head lowered and didn’t notice at all.

Moreover, there was white mist lingering in the restaurant, so it was extremely difficult to see people’s faces clearly. Jing Hanchuan narrowed his eyes, but he couldn’t see who was with her.

Jing Hanchuan found a seat and sat down. There was only a screen between this angle and their seats. His back was facing Xu Yuanfei, so she naturally couldn’t see him.

“May I know what soup you want?” A waiter came over to greet him.

Jing Hanchuan didn’t say anything. A Jing family member at the side took the menu and only said that they needed to take a look again before sending the waiter away.

The screen was hollow with an image of a white crane and auspicious clouds.

The waiter poured them barley tea and left.

Jing Hanchuan rubbed the cup in his hand and observed the next table through the gaps in the screen. He wanted to see who was eating with her.

Some people had their backs facing him, so he couldn’t see them clearly.

Xu Yuanfei’s table was already halfway through their meal. They were all in high spirits and had no time to care about the people around them.

But it was obvious that they were young.

In modern terms, they were all young hunks with the youthful vigor and vitality unique to young people.

“Hey, let’s go,” someone suggested. Then he took the beer mugs and filled them one by one.

Jing Hanchuan rubbed the cup gently with his fingers and took a sip of hot tea.

But then he heard a familiar voice.

“Hey, what are you doing? My sister doesn’t drink!” Someone snatched Xu Yuanfei’s drink away. “Don’t force her to drink.”

At the time, Jing Hanchuan felt that this voice was familiar. Then he heard another sentence coming from the neighboring table.

“Xu Yao, you must be a siscon.”

Xu Yao?

These two words were like a bolt of lightning that instantly exploded in Jing Hanchuan’s mind. His fingers trembled slightly, and the barley tea spilled out of the cup, burning the back of his hand red...

“...” Just as the Jing family members were about to get up, Jing Hanchuan raised his hand to stop them.

He grabbed a napkin and wiped his fingers.

The laughter at the neighboring table continued, but he was no longer in the mood to eavesdrop.

Xu Yao was a rather arrogant person. He might not even be willing to call his cousins Big Sis. If they weren’t blood-related, it would probably be difficult for him to call her this.

Then, isn’t Xu Yuanfei...

A girl with two braids suddenly appeared in Jing Hanchuan’s mind.

She was lean, and her skin was a little dark. He really couldn’t overlap with Xu Yuanfei’s image. But if she was the rumored ‘Xu Jiamei’, many things would be easy to explain. For example, why the information he found was incomplete.

The Jing family members looked at each other as if they had seen a ghost.

They had already known that Xu Yuanfei and Xu Yao were eating together. They thought in their hearts that their surnames were both Xu. The Xu family was different from the Jing family. Their descendants were prosperous, and their roots were varied. They were cousins...

But he called her Big Sis smoothly. It wasn’t as simple as being relatives.

So...

Sixth Master had smashed her head more than 20 years ago. He said that he would be responsible if he disfigured her face, but in the end...

Was he really going to marry her more than twenty years later?

How could there be such a coincidence in this world? When they thought about Xu Yuanfei’s fake information carefully, they realized that she had probably planned this long ago and wanted to woo Sixth Master.

Smashed her and got a wife?
