Chapter 163: Chapter 163 Pretending
But at this moment, Lin Yi saw Han Xuewei's dilemma and reached out to her. Han Xuewei then handed him the phone.
Lin Yi spoke directly, "We're at the mall right now. If you come over, whatever you want to buy, I'll cover it!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoxu immediately showed a surprised look and sprang up from the bed, eagerly saying, "Really?!"
She wasn't interested in much, but her one true passion was shopping, and she also knew Lin Yi was very wealthy. When it came to luxury items, Lin Yi wouldn't be stingy.
So at that moment, she immediately put on her shoes and asked, "Can I buy anything?"
"Anything!"
Lin Yi said calmly. Hearing this, Qin Xiaoxu was the first to grab the shoes and clothes beside her and dashed to the bathroom.
"I'll be right there!"
Hearing that, Lin Yi curled his lips and handed the phone back to Han Xuewei.
Han Xuewei raised an eyebrow and spoke, "She's willing to come now?"
Lin Yi nodded.
Han Xuewei immediately smiled and said, "You really have a way with things!"
Before long, Qin Xiaoxu showed up in front of them.
Qin Xiaoxu was in a hurry and didn't take much time to get ready. She was dressed in casual clothes and hardly had any makeup on, perhaps just some moisturizer.
But knowing she was going to the mall to shop, she was still very excited, fearing Lin Yi might change his mind, so she rushed over without pause.
Seeing Qin Xiaoxu out of breath, Han Xuewei couldn't help but laugh and patted her shoulder, saying, "You didn't have to rush like that!"
Qin Xiaoxu shook her head and counted on her fingers, saying, "You don't understand, I was afraid Lin Yi would back out. Anyway, I'm going to go on a huge shopping spree today."
Hearing Qin Xiaoxu's words, Han Xuewei found her quite amusing.
At this time, Lin Yi, watching them, spoke up, "I definitely won't back out on buying things, but you look like you just woke up?"
Qin Xiaoxu nodded, and Lin Yi continued, "In that case, let's go get something to eat first, then come back afterwards."
Her eyes lit up when she heard this. She hadn't expected Lin Yi to be so thoughtful and turned to Han Xuewei, "You're really lucky. Lin Yi is definitely a thoughtful and good man,"
Hearing Qin Xiaoxu's praise, Han Xuewei just smiled slightly, took Qin Xiaoxu's hand, and started walking ahead. She said, "I'm not very familiar with the restaurants here, but my dad's hotel is just up ahead and it's pretty good! Let's go eat at my dad's place, the food there is delicious. You haven't tried it yet."
Qin Xiaoxu nodded, having wanted to go there for a while, but she never had the chance.
At this point, the two of them walked ahead hand in hand, and Lin Yi followed, realising he seemed like the third wheel, somewhat awkwardly catching up to Han Xuewei's side.
But Han Xuewei and Qin Xiaoxu were chatting away non-stop.
Lin Yi wasn't upset; seeing Han Xuewei happy made him happy too.
The three of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at the entrance of the hotel, and just as they were about to enter, they saw Han Xuemei standing at the front desk.
In her hand, she held a flyer, yet her expression seemed somewhat frozen, Lin Yi had grown accustomed to it whereas Qin Xiaoxu suddenly stopped in her tracks, frowning.
She looked at Han Xuemei with some puzzlement, having seen Xuemei at the wedding banquet before, her impression of her wasn't very good, and what was she doing here! Why hadn't she received any news?
And her ability to spot green tea was always accurate, Han Xuewei was always someone without schemes, just a genuinely kind person.
If it came to a fight with Han Xuemei, she definitely wouldn't win; she couldn't let a scheming woman like Han Xuemei get in touch with Han Xuewei.
Lin Yi, holding Han Xuewei's hand, walked past her towards the front.
Han Xuemei, who had a frozen face just moments ago, immediately put on a professional smile and said to Han Xuewei and Lin Yi, "Brother-in-law, Vivi sis, what brings the two of you here?"
Upon hearing Han Xuemei call out "Brother-in-law" with such intimacy, Qin Xiaoxu immediately showed a displeased expression, staring coldly at her.
This woman was truly too sly, playing the innocent in front of others with great flair.
Qin Xiaoxu immediately stood beside Han Xuewei, giving a slight smile as she looked at her.
At that moment, Han Xuemei noticed Qin Xiaoxu, showing a surprised expression as she said, "I think I also saw this sister at the wedding before, but I'm so dumb, I didn't remember your name, could you tell me again?"
Upon hearing this from Han Xuemei, Qin Xiaoxu's face immediately turned very unpleasant.
What was this woman playing at?
She remembered she was about the same age as this woman, right? What gave her the right to call her "sister" so casually?
Initially, Qin Xiaoxu didn't want to argue with Han Xuemei, but felt that Xuemei was too pretentious and couldn't help saying, "My name is Qin Xiaoxu, and we indeed met at the wedding before, but it seems I'm actually younger than you."
Upon hearing this, Han Xuemei immediately laughed awkwardly, feeling a bit guilty as she said, "I'm sorry, I got it wrong. My brain isn't very sharp. Sorry, younger sister."
Hearing these words, Qin Xiaoxu immediately showed a look of displeasure.
What was up with this woman? She just corrected her, and now she's acting as if she had done something wrong.
Qin Xiaoxu was somewhat speechless and chose not to speak any further. Lin Yi sensed the awkward atmosphere and spoke indifferently, "We're here to eat today, the three of us. Please arrange a table for us, somewhere quiet, okay?"
Lin Yi said this faintly, and upon hearing this, Han Xuemei felt somewhat discontent. She watched them enjoying themselves, while she could only be at others' service, inevitably feeling the disparity in her heart.
But she quickly squeezed out another smile, immediately saying warmly, "Sure, I'll arrange it for you right away."
Soon after, Han Xuemei gave Lin Yi a card, and Lin Yi led both of them upstairs.
At this time, Han Xuemei's expression turned sour as she looked back at them climbing the stairs, the displeasure clear in her eyes. Stay connected through M-V-L
Han Xuewei had originally planned to check on her Dad Han during her visit, but was informed by the waiter that her dad had gone out for social engagements today.
Therefore, she couldn't see him and had no choice but to let it be.
Meanwhile, Qin Xiaoxu, sitting next to her, was already enjoying her meal with great delight, savoring the food, and occasionally expressing her admiration, her thumbs up never lowered.
