Chapter 167 - 167: Do You Have an Ex-Girlfriend?
“All—!”
In the blink of an eye, Little Faye swiftly pounced on Rong Feiyu, leaving several bloody scratches on her face, making her look pitiful.
Little Faye perched on the cage and taunted Rong Feiyu, “Ugly freak, ugly freak!”
After saying that, Little Faye flew away.
Rong Qi opened her mouth, not knowing what to say. Ye Nanshen’s beautiful eyes flashed with a faint smile on his face.
What Little Faye just did was mimic someone. Rong Qi had just beaten Dan’er in the same manner, and now Little Faye imitated her and used the same move on Rong Feiyu.
Worried that Rong Qi might get involved with Rong Feiyu, Rong Qi quickly pushed Ye Nanshen away.
Old Mr. Ye was dumbfounded for a long time before reacting. He chuckled and scolded, “You little beast,” then waved his hand, instructing someone to send Rong Feiyu back to the Rong family. He did not even mention applying medicine for her, just sending her away.
After they all left, Mrs. Fan turned to Old Mr. Ye, wearing a faint smile on her face, and said, “Master, madam always surprises people. She is gentle and courageous, never starting trouble but never afraid of it either. She does things efficiently without any delay. She’s a rare good granddaughter-in-law.”
Old Mr. Ye wrinkled his nose, looking dissatisfied as he grumbled, “It’s not as good as you say. I would say it’s just passable.”
Fan Hui and the butler, Zhong Li, both smiled. They both knew from the way Old Mr. Ye spoke, it seemed that he had changed his view of Rong Qi to some extent.
Rong Qi surprised them all today, especially Fan Hui. While having the ability was important, if one was too softhearted, it would be hard to make a lasting impression. However, Rong Qi was clearly not a softhearted person.
For that reason, Fan Hui was very satisfied. She thought, ‘Master Shen is in a bad situation. It was best if the people around him were helpful to him. Indecisiveness would only cause trouble.’
Fan Hui stopped and then asked Zhong Li to assist her in going upstairs to rest.
Rong Qi and Ye Nanshen, who had just returned to their room, fell into a peculiar stalemate.
Ye Nanshen said, “You promised to tell me a secret. I want to hear it now.”
Rong Qi remained silent for a while, looking up at the ceiling, lost in thought.
“No making things up,” Ye Nanshen said. He knew what she was thinking just by looking at her.
Rong Qi looked at Ye Nanshen and said, “Then at least give me a topic. What do you want to hear?”
Ye Nanshen’s eyes flickered slightly, and he casually asked, pretending not to care, “For example, your past love life. Ex-boyfriends or anyone courted you before.”
As soon as Ye Nanshen finished speaking, he unconsciously held his breath, feeling a strong pull in his heart—nervous, anxious, and expectant.
“Haha, is that it?” Rong Qi laughed, startling herself. She thought Ye Nanshen was going to interrogate her about why she pretended to be foolish.
Rong Qi shook her head decisively and said, “No ex-boyfriends. I haven’t courted anyone else either.”
Ye Nanshen furrowed his brows, his gaze fixed on her, and asked, “You mean to say you’ve never liked any boys before?”
“Nope.” Rong Qi lay on the bed with the puppy in her arms, her tone incredibly relaxed. “To be shameless, I actually feel that those men weren’t worthy of me. So why should I bother liking someone else?”
After speaking, Rong Qi immediately sat up and warned Ye Nanshen, “Don’t laugh at me.”
Watching Rong Qi’s serious expression, Ye Nanshen put one hand in his pocket, lifted his coffee cup with a pleasant mood, concealing the corners of his lips that slightly curled up, and simply said, “Hmm.”
However, soon enough, Rong Qi threw a fatal question back at him, “From the way you spoke just now, do you have an ex-girlfriend? Or did you like someone in the past?”
