Chapter 1708: Isn’t My Performance Obvious Enough?


Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios


Originally, she still had some doubts about herself, but now, they’d settled down as well.


Right at this moment, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s phone rang.


s.h.i.+ Xiaoya took it out and said to everyone, “My big brother is calling. I’ll go out for a moment to answer the call.”


Old Mrs. Han smiled to let her be casual and not be so polite.


s.h.i.+ Xiaoya took the phone and hurried out of the room.


After the door to the room closed, Old Mrs. Han quickly asked Han Zhuoling, “What’s up with Qin Gouzi? Zhuoling, can you make it or not? She even has a childhood sweetheart around, are you sure you can win against him?”


“I know him. He’s on very good terms with Xiaoya,” Han Zhuoling said. “But they are just friends and don’t have that kind of relations.h.i.+p, not even a hint of romance between them. Or else, the two of them would have been together long ago. Their relations.h.i.+p wouldn’t have remained the same for so many years.”


“Really?” Old Mrs. Han thought about it and felt a little embarra.s.sed about putting Han Zhuoling down.


Han Zhuoling’s compet.i.tiveness was a bit low.


He did not know how to coax people with a glib tongue, and he was quite old, and it would be his second marriage.


Counting with her fingers, he really was not as compet.i.tive as Qin Gouzi.


Qin Gouzi was young and looked handsome. His family background was impeccable, and it would be his first marriage.


And he was even childhood sweethearts with s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.


“Really.” Han Zhuoling nodded. “I know that.”


Old Mrs. Han thought to herself, “What do you know? You’re so slow and haven’t even wooed her yet.”


“Aiya!” Lin Liye exclaimed in surprise. “You finally admitted that you like her!”


Han Zhuoling: “…”


He took a sip of tea and said, “Isn’t my performance obvious enough?”


Lin Liye tsked and was about to tease Han Zhuoling. Who knew, Han Zhuoling would admit to it so fast that Lin Liye could not think of what to say in time.

On this side, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya took her phone and walked to the corridor to answer the call. “Big Brother, what’s the matter?”


“Just calling you to ask how you are. I haven’t been to see you after you came back from recording the show,” s.h.i.+ Nancang said. “How was your time in Man City? Did you get used to it?”


“It’s okay. The things I brought kept me warm enough, and the production team also took the weather into consideration, so the filming time each day wasn’t very long. I was quite tired when I just came back, but I’m good now,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said as she smiled.


“Big Brother, where are you right now? Why does the background sound so noisy?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya asked further.


“I’m eating at Sheng Yue. Regarding your Weibo incident before, I’d asked my friends to help out. Since they are all in B City now, I asked them out for dinner,” s.h.i.+ Nancang said. “Then I’ll go outside to talk to you, lest they’re so noisy and affect the phone call.”


The moment s.h.i.+ Xiaoya heard that, she realized that s.h.i.+ Nancang was at Sheng Yue as well.


They better not meet!


Or else, how was she supposed to explain to him that she was eating together with the Han Family?


It did not sound right no matter how she explained it, right?


Just as she was thinking about that, she saw s.h.i.+ Nancang coming out from the room diagonally opposite.


s.h.i.+ Xiaoya: “…”


s.h.i.+ Nancang: “…”


“What are you doing here?” s.h.i.+ Nancang asked before he realized he was still on the phone with her.


s.h.i.+ Nancang quickly hung up the phone.


s.h.i.+ Xiaoya was dumbstruck too. Who would have thought that it would be such a coincidence—they were almost directly opposite each other.


She was really to blame. Why did she come out to answer the call for nothing?!


“I… I’m also eating here with my friends…” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said as she ended the call guiltily.
