Chapter 792: He Was Not Teasing Her
Not long after, Li Man drove over.
Xia Ning put Jin Yan in the back seat and walked to the car window. She said to Li Man, “After you get him back, you better get him a bowl of hangover soup. Otherwise, he’ll make a fuss for the whole night. Also, if there’s food, prepare some for him. He’ll be hungry when he wakes up in the middle of the night. He’s always hungry…”
Li Man looked at Xia Ning and said with a smile, “You really understand him.”
Xia Ning was surprised. She did not expect Li Man to say that. But on second thought, what she said just now was too misleading. She explained at once, “I drank with him a few times. He was very noisy when he was drunk. Everyone despised him.”
“I know.” Li Man smiled. “Don’t worry, he has me. You should go back earlier.”
Xia Ning nodded and took a step back.
Li Man rolled up the car window and drove away.
Xia Ning did not move and was silent for a while. She took a look at her phone. It was rare that Qiao Yu did not call back today. Probably because he was relieved when he knew she was with Jin Yan. She smiled slightly and turned around to get her car. She then drove away.
In the car, Li Man glanced at the rearview mirror. There was no car chasing them. She slowed down and looked at the man who was sleeping on the sofa.
“She really knows you well. She even knows you need to eat when you wake up in the middle of the night.” Li Man chuckled. “I’m jealous of such a good relations.h.i.+p.”
“I saw you leaning on her from afar in the car just now. She was caring and despising you at the same time. I was thinking, this is really like a couple in love. What kind of friend would be so close to each other?”
“But it’s all an illusion. Her eyes are the window of her soul. Jin Yan, you have to admit that there’s no love in her eyes at all. I think her reliance on you can only be considered as family. So, be clear of reality.”
The car was quiet and no one answered her.
As for the man who was sleeping on the sofa, his breathing was even as if he was fast asleep. But suddenly, he opened his eyes. His pupils were dark and bright. He was not drunk at all. The next moment, he closed his eyes again.
In the Qiao house, when Xia Ning drove back, the lights in the master bedroom on the second floor were still on.
She parked the car and went into the house. She went straight to the second floor.
On the balcony, Qiao Yu saw the shadow entering the hall. Soon, there was the sound of her walking upstairs. He turned around and walked into the room and saw Xia Ning walking in.
“Why aren’t you asleep?” Xia Ning looked at him who was standing at the balcony and asked curiously.
Qiao Yu looked at her and said gently, “Waiting for you.”
“I’m not a kid.” Xia Ning smiled and walked to the couch. She threw her bag on the couch and took off her coat.
“Can you bring me to dinner with Jin Yan next time?” Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning and said suddenly.
Xia Ning looked at Qiao Yu with confusion. “What’s wrong?”
“I’m just a little jealous. You spent the night with him.” Qiao Yu looked at her with some resentment.
“Haha…” Xia Ning couldn’t help but laugh. She walked over and held Qiao Yu’s hand. “It’s not like you don’t know that Jin Yan and I are just good friends. So stop teasing me. Plus, I was invited by his girlfriend today. She didn’t say I could take you with her. How can I take you with me?”
Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning with deep eyes. He was not teasing her.
