The day after Mrs. Jiang’s birthday party, Qin Xue received a text message from an unfamiliar number.

[Ms. Qin, are you free? I want to talk to you.]

The signature is Jiang Xi.

She didn't know this person.

But she knew that Zhou Chenyi attended Mrs. Jiang's birthday party yesterday.

This person's surname is also Jiang.

Could it be someone from Old Lady Jiang’s family?

Qin Xue would not rashly meet a stranger.

She sent a message asking Zhou Chenyi who Jiang Xi was.

Zhou Chenyi said that she was Mrs. Jiang’s granddaughter.

He also asked her why she suddenly asked this.

Qin Xue replied: [She asked me to meet her, should I go? ]

Zhou Chenyi replied immediately: [No need.]

Qin Xue asked Zhou Chenyi why Jiang Xi asked her to meet him?

In fact, she had already guessed the answer in her heart.

It was simply that Jiang Xi admired him, knew that he had a fiancée, and wanted to meet her.

Who knows, he might even want to persuade her to quit.

Sure enough, Zhou Chenyi's answer was similar to what she thought.

[I'm not sure, but there is one thing I want to confess to you. Jiang Xi confessed to me before, and I rejected her. Later, she went abroad to study and only returned to China recently.]

Qin Xue asked: [Do you think it would be dangerous for me to meet her? ]

【Won't. 】

Does he really believe that Jiang Xi won’t do anything to hurt her?

I can’t describe how I feel.

Maybe it's a bit sour.

Qin Xue took more than ten minutes to reply to Zhou Chenyi with a "OK".

……

That afternoon, Qin Xue and Jiang Xi sat face to face in a western restaurant.

Soothing piano music flows.

Jiang Xi stirred the coffee in front of him gracefully, "Ms. Qin, I thought you would refuse to see me."

She had neat short hair, wore light makeup, light brown lipstick, and a brown coat with a beige shirt. She looked cool and capable.

As expected of a daughter of a famous family, her temperament and demeanor are impeccable.

Qin Xue smiled back, revealing two shallow dimples, "Miss Jiang, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Jiang Xi took a sip of the coffee and did not answer Qin Xue's question. Instead, she said to herself, "Miss Qin, the cup of coffee in front of me is made of Arabica coffee beans from Ethiopia. It is lightly roasted and ground very finely. It has a refreshing taste and a slightly sour flavor. It is what Brother Chen Yi likes the most."

Qin Xue understood.

This was to show off to her that she knew Zhou Chenyi's preferences.

Qin Xue raised her chin slightly and looked at Jiang Xi leisurely, "So?"

Jiang Xi paused as he stirred the coffee.

She thought that a girl like Qin Xue who came from a small place and had never seen the world would feel so inferior and at a loss after hearing what she said.

Seeing Qin Xue so calm, Jiang Xi raised his eyelids to look at her, and asked with a provocative smile: "Miss Qin, you have been with Brother Chen Yi for so long, do you know what he likes?"

Qin Xue looked at Jiang Xi with amusement, as if she was telling a very funny joke.

"He likes me." Qin Xue said firmly.

The smile on Jiang Xi's face froze instantly.

It seems that Qin Xue is not as easy to bully as she seems.

She also prepared a long speech to persuade Qin Xue to leave Zhou Chenyi.

But Qin Xue only said "He likes me", which blocked her from saying anything else.

Jiang Xi's grip on the spoon tightened slightly.

She was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and then looked up at Qin Xue again.

"Ms. Qin, you and Brother Chen Yi are not suitable for each other. The gap between your status and position is too big. He and you are from two different worlds across classes. You are two parallel lines that will never intersect."

After Jiang Xi finished speaking, he narrowed his eyes slightly and observed Qin Xue's expression.

I tried to see expressions of inferiority, loss, confusion, etc. on her face.

However, Qin Xue just smiled indifferently, "But our two parallel lines that should not have intersected have already intersected. Not only have they intersected, but they are also tightly entangled together and will never separate."

After Qin Xue finished speaking, her eyes fell on the cup of coffee in Jiang Xi's hand, "Zhou Chenyi once ground coffee for me personally. He probably used the kind of beans you just mentioned. I drank it and it tasted sour and astringent. I didn't like it very much. I took one sip and stopped drinking it. He turned around and learned how to make milk tea to cheer me up."

Qin Xue smiled harmlessly, "So, it doesn't matter what he likes to drink. What matters is that he will personally make it for me whatever I like to drink."

Jiang Xi didn't expect that this little girl was so sharp-tongued, and every word she said was like a stab in the heart.

Every word made her heart ache and bleed.

Jiang Xi accidentally touched the coffee cup and some of the coffee spilled out.

Qin Xue just smiled faintly and said nothing.

But Jiang Xi felt that Qin Xue was laughing at her.

Jiang Xi refused to admit defeat.

She adjusted her mood and said, "Ms. Qin is sharp-tongued. Confidence is a good thing, but blind confidence will only lead you into an abyss! A girl from an ordinary family like you will never be able to marry into the Zhou family."

Qin Xue was well prepared. She calmly took out a fine jade bracelet from her bag.

"Miss Jiang, this is the jade bracelet that Madam Zhou put on my wrist. She said that only the daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law of the Zhou family are worthy of it. Do you think it is really impossible for me to marry into the Zhou family?"

Jiang Xi was shocked.

Does the Zhou family still have such a tradition?

Was this really given to her by Old Lady Zhou?

Didn't Mrs. Zhou always care about matching up? Why did she suddenly change her mind?

Before Jiang Xi could recover, Qin Xue continued, "Zhou Chenyi and I are already engaged, don't you know, Miss Jiang?"

got engaged!

They are engaged!

These words were like a bolt from the blue, hitting Jiang Xi directly on the forehead.

Jiang Xi's whole body stiffened in an instant and he sat there unable to move.

Song Ye and Song Ning only told her that Qin Xue and Zhou Chenyi were together and that Zhou Chenyi cared about Qin Xue very much, but they didn't tell her that they were already engaged!
