Xia Hankong got straight to the point. Apparently, he had learned about the relationship between Zhao Youting and Qin Qiao'er during this period. His purpose today was simply to confirm to what stage their relationship had developed.
"What stage? Heh, who are you? Do I need to tell you?" Zhao Youting folded his arms across his chest and stared coldly at Xia Hankong, seemingly not planning to say much to him.
Song Qianqian was annoyed that her words had been interrupted. But when she heard what these two men were saying, she instantly became interested. She quickly pricked up her ears and prepared to listen carefully.
However, although Zhao Youting really wanted to stand up and confront Xia Hankong right then, the thought of the disgusting Song Qianqian being there beside them made him feel irritated. So he coldly glanced in her direction.
"Song Qianqian, I'm having a conversation with Star Xia here. Shouldn't you leave?"
His cold voice was like the ice and snow in winter, making one feel a bone - chilling cold. Song Qianqian was startled, but she didn't want to miss this great opportunity. How could she give up the chance to be with these two handsome men at once?
She immediately continued to act shamelessly. Well, at this moment, it should be said that she had thrown all her dignity to the ground.
"We're all familiar with each other. What's the problem if I hear what you're saying? Besides, I know you two both like Sister Qiao'er... It's okay. I can even give you some advice while I'm here."
She said these big words without any shame. Although Xia Hankong didn't know much about the deep hatred between this woman and Qin Qiao'er, Zhao Youting knew it clearly. He suddenly let out a low laugh that gradually grew louder.
"Hehehahaha. It's really funny. I didn't expect you to say such things. It's really interesting." Although he said this with a smile, the look in his eyes when he stared at Song Qianqian was extremely terrifying.
Song Qianqian was frightened and knew that she had really angered him this time.
She quickly stood up. "S...sorry. I... I'd better leave first. You can talk first. I'll go."
Maybe it was Zhao Youting's authority that put pressure on her, so she ran away faster than a rabbit. Watching her scurry away, Zhao Youting didn't continue to mock her. Instead, he shifted his gaze back to Xia Hankong.
Xia Hankong raised his eyebrows as he watched Song Qianqian run away. Apparently, he had noticed something interesting.
He immediately fixed his eyes on Zhao Youting. With a somewhat mischievous smile on his lips, he said, "It seems there's a story between you and this Song Qianqian. Come on, could it be that you, Qin Qiao'er, and Song Qianqian are in a love triangle?"
He paused for a moment and then continued slowly, as if enticing others to sink with him. "Or rather, you used to be in a love - triangle relationship..."
"Bullshit!" A swear word came out of his sexy and charming lips. Apparently, Xia Hankong's speculation had completely infuriated Zhao Youting.
"Is that woman even worthy? Heh!"
He was referring to Song Qianqian. Clearly, Zhao Youting didn't take Song Qianqian seriously. If it hadn't been for Song Qianqian and her weird family back then, he might have already been with Qin Qiao'er.
The only reason he still gave Song Qianqian a bit of face was that she was a woman.
But just thinking that Xia Hankong had said he might be in a love - triangle relationship with Song Qianqian and Qin Qiao'er made him feel nauseous. Their love was so pure. Why did this disgusting Song Qianqian have to be involved?
Zhao Youting's behavior, which was completely different from his usual elegant demeanor, obviously piqued Xia Hankong's interest, and he also understood the key point. Apparently, Song Qianqian had played an ugly role in the love between Qin Qiao'er and Zhao Youting, which was why they both disliked her so much.
"Big CEO, you don't need to be so angry."
"Okay, cut the crap. Now I'll answer your first question. I do have a very good relationship with Qin Qiao'er. I'll tell you clearly that we're destined to be together for a lifetime. So you'll never be able to take Qin Qiao'er away from me in your life."
He suddenly stood up. His broad shoulders were like a towering mountain in front of Xia Hankong. Zhao Youting put his hands in his suit pockets. Although it was an informal gesture, on him, it exuded a lazy charm.
"I know you're pursuing Qin Qiao'er now. I don't know what you said that made Qiao'er misunderstand you, thinking you only regarded her as a friend. Heh! But your eyes can't deceive me. You like her, right? But I advise you to give up this feeling quickly. You're not suitable for her, and she's not suitable for you. She and I are a perfect match. You're just an outsider."
Actually, he really wanted to tell Xia Hankong the true identities of Qin Chenchen and Qin Wanwan, so that he would stay away from Qin Qiao'er completely. But he held back.
He knew he couldn't say this. It would not only be disrespectful to Qin Qiao'er but also have an impact on her career.
He planned to give Qin Qiao'er a perfect wedding and announce to the world that Qin Chenchen and Qin Wanwan were his own children, instead of saying these things when they were angry.
He was very excited, almost roaring. Xia Hankong had to admit that he was somewhat shocked by what he said, and at the same time, he felt a complex and indescribable emotion.
He never thought that the woman he liked already had a man who loved her deeply.
He... might really fail in this pursuit.
"You love her very much, don't you?" he suddenly said, looking into Zhao Youting's eyes.
"Yes." The air was a bit stuffy. Zhao Youting stared firmly into his eyes and answered this question seriously.
He loved Qin Qiao'er. He loved her cuteness, her playfulness, her naughtiness, her gentleness, her kindness, her passion, and everything about her.
It had taken him so many years to realize that perhaps on that moonlit night long ago, he had already developed a strong interest in this woman.
But it wasn't too late. At least they were still together.
"Okay, I understand. However, even though you two love each other deeply, Sister Qiao'er is still single, isn't she? So I still have a chance." Xia Hankong didn't take Zhao Youting's words seriously. Instead, he confidently curled his lips and smiled.
