Chapter 115: Chapter 115: Are You Jealous?

“Godfather! I’m back!”

During the conversation, a joyful voice came from the doorway.

“Xiao Luo is here! When did you get back? How come you didn’t tell us in advance so we could pick you up?”

Lu Xu bounded into the room, and several people behind him carried his suitcases upstairs with practiced ease.

“It’s almost Yiyi’s birthday, so I thought I’d come back before her birthday to give you all a surprise!”

Lu Xu walked in and hugged Qiao Benqing, then hugged Qiao Yi, before finally noticing Lu Yanchuan standing to the side.

“This is…”

“Let me introduce him; this is Lu Yanchuan, Yiyi’s beloved.”

Lu Xu looked at Lu Yanchuan, and when the two men’s eyes met in the air, sparks flew instantly.

“I heard overseas that Yiyi got married; I didn’t expect it was true. It seems the little girl has really grown up.”

Lu Xu affectionately ruffled Qiao Yi’s head, and seeing her irritably bare her teeth at him, he turned back toward Lu Yanchuan.

“Pleased to meet you. Thank you for taking care of Yiyi these past few months.”

The two men shook hands, and Qiao Yi, looking at Lu Yanchuan’s expressionless face, felt an inexplicable chill down her spine.

Is Yanchuan angry?

What’s got him so upset? Who provoked him?

Qiao Yi was baffled, but a single glance at her puzzled eyes, and Yanchuan knew exactly what she was thinking, which only intensified his displeasure.

“I’ve never heard Yiyi mention you before. Now that you’re back in the country, I’ll arrange for someone to show you around before you leave again.”

The smile on Lu Xu’s lips stiffened slightly, then he suddenly looked pitiful, hugging Qiao Yi’s neck, both aggrieved and angry, trapping her under his arm.

“You ungrateful little thing! Not even a word to me about getting married! If I hadn’t come back to the country this time, were you planning to keep it a secret forever? Do you even consider me your brother anymore!”

“Let go, let go! I’m going to throw up the food I just ate!”

Qiao Yi screamed, hitting Lu Xu’s arm, and their unguarded frolicking was particularly irksome in the eyes of Lu Yanchuan.

In his presence, Qiao Yi had never behaved like that before…

After the pleasantries, Lu Xu was taken away by Qiao Benqing; after all, he had several relatives in the country and couldn’t just stay at the Qiao Family forever without making an appearance.

Qiao Yi and Lu Yanchuan sat together in the backseat in silence, the atmosphere so stiff on the ride home that she almost wanted to jump out of the car to escape.

Finally, unable to endure the icy atmosphere any longer, Qiao Yi turned slowly, first warily observing the look on Yanchuan’s face before cautiously tugging at his sleeve.

“Are… Are you angry?”

“No.”

Tsk! Why is this man so insincere!

Qiao Yi choked on his rigid tone, shrinking her neck and muttering softly.

“He’s clearly angry, yet claims he’s not. Obviously he’s annoyed…”

“I’m not angry.”

A trace of reluctant compromise tinged Lu Yanchuan’s voice.

Perhaps just now at the Qiao house he was truly displeased, but once they left and he noticed Qiao Yi’s trembling little expression, the slight irritation in his heart had vanished.

Just seeing Qiao Yi’s attitude towards Lu Xu was enough to know that she only regarded him as a brother and had no other feelings.

As for Lu Xu’s thoughts about Qiao Yi, they weren’t within the realm of Yanchuan’s concerns.

Just like he also had many admirers, he couldn’t possibly consider whether each one of them liked him or not.

Although he wasn’t angry, seeing Qiao Yi trying so hard to please him, Lu Yanchuan still decided not to let her off the hook so easily.

Qiao Yi was about to cry.

If you’re not mad, just say so! Why be so fierce?! And so icy cold and rigid!

It was a good thing Lu Yanchuan couldn’t read minds, otherwise, he would definitely be vexed by her jumbled thoughts.

“Er… Can you stop being angry, please?”

Even though she didn’t know why he was actually upset, Qiao Yi couldn’t help but try to coax him.

After all, the document she had revised was still in his hands. If he became displeased, wouldn’t her efforts be wasted?

Lu Yanchuan suppressed the curve of his lips, not allowing himself to laugh out loud.

His face still showed that unclear expression, he gave Qiao Yi a quick glance and then harrumphed lightly.

Qiao Yi: “???”

She seemed not to have provoked him! What was Lu Yanchuan’s deal?

Not sure what Lu Yanchuan really meant, Qiao Yi shifted her bottom toward him, grabbing Lu Yanchuan’s sleeve with both hands.

“Are you angry with me? Please don’t be angry, okay?”

Qiao Yi was disgusted by her own cutesy and coquettish voice, but looking up at Lu Yanchuan’s face, the man showed no reaction except for pursing his lips tighter and a deeper gaze.

Utterly useless, Qiao Yi felt depressed, leaning back and fiddling with her fingers, no longer wanting to deal with Lu Yanchuan.

What the heck! She had already been so accommodating, yet Lu Yanchuan was still pushing it!

She wasn’t going to coax him anymore! Humph!

“Hey hey hey!”

“What are you doing?!”

Qiao Yi felt a sudden tightness around her waist, and the next moment, she was pulled into a familiar embrace.

“I’m not angry, not angry with anyone.”

“Really?”

Qiao Yi turned her back to Lu Yanchuan, not wanting him to see her blushing cheeks.

That’s no fair! He was actually trying to seduce her!

Listening to that deliberately deepened voice, Qiao Yi almost couldn’t control herself!

“Really.”

Upon receiving the reassuring answer, Qiao Yi then shifted around to face him, clutched the collar of Lu Yanchuan’s jacket, pressing her whole body against his, and began to threaten fiercely.

“If you’re ever angry in the future, you have to tell me! If you scare me like this again, I won’t be polite to you!”

The Qiao Yi in his arms was like an affronted little kitten, thinking she was fearsome when in fact she was just too adorable to resist.

While Qiao Yi was threatening Lu Yanchuan, she didn’t see the look in his eyes gradually change under her press.

In the end, Qiao Yi was carried out of the car by Lu Yanchuan.

Although both of them were dressed decently and it didn’t seem like anything had happened, given the abnormal flush on Qiao Yi’s face, if anyone said nothing had happened, nobody would believe it!

Left alone in the car, Ma Yu started contemplating the possibility of resigning again.

Even though the job was high paying and had good benefits, the boss just didn’t care about protecting his employees’ mental health! Uncle could bear this, but auntie couldn’t!

Qiao Yi was placed by Lu Yanchuan onto the sofa, and just as he was about to straighten up, Qiao Yi pulled him back down by his neck.

“Lu Yanchuan, were you jealous when you were at my house today?”
