“What’s an ‘ex-girlfriend’?” Jiang Yeqian asked calmly.
Qi Qingyao cupped her chin and said, “It means the girls you’ve loved before, girls who have loved you, or girls you were once in a relations.h.i.+p with but have since broken up…”
“No.” Jiang Yeqian replied lazily.
Qi Qingyao was appalled. “Ah, people your age have children who are already grown, while you haven’t had a girlfriend… nor an ex! Poor thing.”
Jiang Yeqian, “…” ‘Why was her tone so pitiful and her gaze so sympathetic?!’
Qi Qingyao thought for a moment before cautiously asking, “Could it be that you can’t?”
Jiang Yeqian was stunned momentarily, unable to understand. “Can’t what?”
Qi Qingyao paused once more to choose her next words carefully. She continued in a wary tone, “Impotence.”
Jiang Yeqian, “…”
Lu Yan had been quietly listening to the interesting conversation after he got off the hook. When he heard this, he completely lost all his inhibitions and burst into a fit of laughter.
“Hahahahahaha!”
Hearing Lu Yan’s laughter, Jiang Yeqian’s face turned as black as the bottom of a wok.
Just as he was about to lash out, Qi Qingyao looked at the laughing Lu Yan and said, “What are you laughing at? You’re nearly as impotent as he is, and yet you have the gall to laugh at others.”
“…”
Lu Yan’s laughter immediately stopped.
He glanced at Qi Qingyao, mildly aggrieved.
Jiang Yeqian anger steadily rose. He gritted his teeth tightly and said, “I’m not impotent! I’m perfectly fine!”
“Then why aren’t you married? Why don’t you even have an ex-girlfriend at your age?” Qi Qingyao said unhurriedly, “Could it be that you don’t like women? Do you prefer men?”
“!!!!” Jiang Yeqian’s eyes were as big as saucers.
Lu Yan, “…” ‘Hold on, the Head Grand Secretariat has never seemed to have any luck with women, nor does he fancy the rich young ladies from the Capital. Could it be?”
Jiang Yeqian rubbed the spot between his brows as he explained hastily, “I just—just haven’t come across someone I like! I don’t want to settle! What do you mean impotent? I’m not! Nor do I fancy men! I’m straight!”
Qi Qingyao said earnestly, “You’re saying that you haven’t come across someone you like, so you don’t wanna settle, then… How can you be sure that you don’t prefer men? Maybe you’ve never fancied any women before precisely because you like men? Would you like to try it out? Maybe then you can find your one true love.”
“…” Her tone made her sound like an old monk who had practiced for a thousand years and was now giving earnest advice. It irritated and frustrated Jiang Yeqian.
Qi Qingyao suddenly tugged Lu Yan’s arm. She gestured to Jiang Yeqian and said, “He’s handsome too. He may have had bad experiences, but he’s still a very clean boy. Why don’t you try to like Master Lu? He’s really nice.”
Jiang Yeqian responded between laughter and tears, “Are you a matchmaker? Are you matchmaking?”
Qi Qingyao pouted aggrievedly. She acted innocent and replied, “I just feel quite sorry for the both of you.” In actuality, she just wanted to watch the fun…
Jiang Yeqian was silent for a few moments before saying with a half-smile, “Feel sorry for yourself first! You have no idea who you slept with, and you don’t know who the father of your children is! You may never get married.”
Qi Qingyao said leisurely, “Don’t change the subject. Try liking Master Lu! He’s really nice.”
Jiang Yeqian frowned.
Lu Yan’s gaze was strangely focused. “You think I’m nice?”
“Yep, you’re very nice! That’s why I’m playing matchmaker for you.” Qi Qingyao patted his shoulders. Then nce again, with an exaggerated friendly att.i.tude, she prodded, “Look, Jiang Yeqian looks good. You also look good.. Good-looking people are meant to be together.”
