Chapter 421: Chapter 422: Are You in a Relationship?

"You have the ability yourself, otherwise, even if you knew Lou Fan, you wouldn’t have gotten this job because of me," Pei Yicheng thought about the serious way she and Lou Fan had just discussed work, which was particularly captivating.

"I’ll treat you to a meal another day," Xu Nianhua playfully said, "Yicheng, you’ll honor me with your presence, won’t you?"

Pei Yicheng’s eyes brightened, he pursed his lips, holding back a smile, and said, "It would be my honor."

"Great, once I set the time, I’ll come find you." Xu Nianhua had been busy lately, busy with her studies, translating documents, and dealing with Liao Jinling’s issues, which had caused her to fall behind in her homework.

"Okay."

Pei Yicheng watched her run all the way to the dormitory until she completely disappeared from his sight before he left.

This scene was accidentally witnessed by Fei Jiayi, who was hanging clothes out to dry; she looked meaningfully at Xu Nianhua, who had just run up.

"What’s wrong, is there something dirty on my face?"

Xu Nianhua felt goosebumps under Fei Jiayi’s gaze and touched her face subconsciously. Could it be that she got oil splashed on her face or clothes while eating hotpot?

"Did Pei Yicheng just bring you back?" Fei Jiayi’s eyes sparkled.

Xu Nianhua inexplicably thought of a wolf wanting to eat a little white rabbit and nodded, "Yes."

What’s improper?

"You stayed with Pei Yicheng for most of the day today, right?" Fei Jiayi asked again.

"Yes."

Xu Nianhua nodded again.

Fei Jiayi’s eyes shone even brighter, she sized Xu Nianhua up and down. Most of her clothes were quite ordinary, but they looked no worse than those exorbitantly expensive ones when worn on her, in fact, they accentuated her simple and pure beauty, especially those clear, sparkling eyes, which seemed to speak. Even Fei Jiayi, another woman, was often stunned by her allure.

"You’re impressive!"

Fei Jiayi gave her a thumbs-up.

Xu Nianhua was completely baffled. What was all this about? Why couldn’t she understand what Fei Jiayi was saying? Was it because Fei Jiayi wasn’t speaking Mandarin or were they on different wavelengths?

"I’ve heard people say that Pei Yicheng avoids women. Since his freshman year, I don’t know how many female classmates have confessed to him, but he hasn’t accepted any of them. Some tried to get close to him to win his favor, but he avoided them as if they were the plague!" Fei Jiayi said admiringly, looking at Xu Nianhua, "How did you manage to win him over?"

Fei Jiayi had always been skeptical about the rumors around school, but she was certain about this one because she had incidentally heard her cousin mention it, and after seeing Pei Yicheng once by chance, she felt intimidated by his cold gaze, the type that dared you not to look away.

"Win him over?" Xu Nianhua couldn’t help but want to roll her eyes. She explained, "Jiayi, what are you imagining? We just... had some business together, and then we ate a meal together."

"Oh~~~"

Fei Jiayi elongated her tone knowingly, "Are you dating him? Yes, I’m sure I guessed it right. I know you want to keep it a secret, right?"

Saying this, Fei Jiayi even made a gesture of sealing her lips with her hand.

Xu Nianhua: "..."

So her explanation had been in vain.

"Nianhua, speaking confidentially, don’t you find Pei Yicheng terrifying? His gaze is so cold, it could freeze people into ice!" Fei Jiayi looked at Xu Nianhua curiously, and if it weren’t for having seen Pei Yicheng before, she would have thought her cousin had exaggerated!
