Chapter 371: Single Men are Destined to Feel Jealous
When Tang Jinyu heard what Jian Qi said, the glimmer in his eyes faded a little.
“When did you learn to speak like a normal person?” Tang Jinyu asked frostily.
Jian Qi. “…”
‘D*mn… D*mn it!’
‘Instructor Tang, you really are a straightforward man. I’ve just said something so romantic. How could you insult me like that?’
“Little Tang Tang, must you hurt your little fairy’s fragile heart and soul like this?” Jian Qi blinked sadly as if she was a large breed of dog which had been mistreated and needed some comforting.
Tang Jinyu’s mouth twitched.
He had to admit that this lady had diversified acting skills.
She could probably easily handle roles that were non-human.
After all, he recalled that she could even imitate the sounds of various animals.
“If you don’t leave, I will break your heart into pieces!” Tang Jinyu said.
“Little Tang Tang, I’m going to cry for a while. Don’t stop me…”
After saying so, Jian Qi turned around and left in a huff.
When Tang Jinyu saw that Jian Qi was finally leaving, he could not help but smile a little.
However, he seemed to be thinking about something as he gradually stopped smiling. The glimmer in his eyes had somehow faded as well.
‘Jian Qi, what are you thinking about?’
Although other people perceived Jian Qi as being her usual flirty self, Tang Jinyu was aware that she seemed somewhat different today. Ever since she found out that they would be cooperating with the anti-terrorism team to complete a mission, she began acting differently.
Occasionally, there would be expressions on her face which he would not usually see.
Jian Qi, who was always playful, had started to become serious.
Despite her usual disregard of the consequences of her own actions, Jian Qi started being careful to protect her left arm from a second injury in order to partic.i.p.ate in the current mission.
A person as loud as her was capable of being quiet too.
What was on her mind?
Moreover, Tang Jinyu recalled Leng Yu telling her about something Jian Qi said in her dreams.
‘Finally going back!’
‘Back? Where was she going back to?’
Tang Jinyu’s frown deepened somewhat.
‘Jian Qi…’
‘Do you think this is a place you can come and go as you wish?’
‘What about me? Tang Jinyu isn’t someone you can flirt with and decide to leave behind when you feel like you’ve had enough.’
Tang Jinyu scoffed coldly as a look of confidence appeared in his dark eyes.
‘I’ve warned you earlier on not to get too close to me. Now, you have no choice but to give up whatever plan you have on your mind.’

Soon after Jian Qi walked out of the study, she b.u.mped into Lightning and the others who were waiting nearby.
“Big Sister Qi, what did you and Boss talk about earlier?” Crocodile asked curiously.
“What else can a man and a woman talk about, if not romance, when they are left on their own?” Jian Qi smiled devilishly
Everyone. “…”
Were they wrong?
They should not have waited behind with hopes of watching something interesting happen.
The blame could only be placed on their own curiosity.
Jian Qi was about to speak when she suddenly sneezed.
“Hey, Big Sister Qi, do you think Boss has just cursed you behind your back?” Lightning teased.
Jian Qi rubbed her nose. “Instructor Tang must be thinking about me. Such a possessive little goblin. It’s only been a minute and he already misses me!” She calmly gloated.
Everyone. “…”
It would be better if they leave.
After seeing how the group of people had turned around and left unanimously, Jian Qi raised her brows. “I’m not done talking yet. Why are you guys leaving?”
“We refuse to listen to you gloating about your romantic affairs!” Everyone replied at the same time.
“Single men are destined to feel jealous. How else would you feel?” Jian Qi chuckled.
Everyone gritted their teeth.
‘Young lady, you are being too pompous and annoying!’
“Can we beat her up?” Crocodile asked.
“Sure.” Lightning chuckled. “On the condition that you are not afraid of being beaten up by Boss!”
After remaining silent for three seconds, Crocodile backed away in fear. “Oh, forget about it…”
