Chapter 721 - 702: Seems to be in a good mood
After hearing Ji Nanming finish this sentence, Lou Xi realized that although Ji Nanming had been in Nancheng for a while, this was his first time meeting Qin Mobai.
"This is Qin Mobai, my husband." Lou Xi introduced Qin Mobai to Ji Nanming.
Qin Mobai’s lips curled up slightly, probably because he heard the phrase "my husband," feeling like he was being labeled as Lou Xi’s husband, and his mood unknowingly improved.
"Mo Bai, this is Ji Nanming." When introducing Ji Nanming, Lou Xi only mentioned his name because she was really embarrassed to admit he was her brother.
After all, from getting to know each other to now, it hadn’t even been a month. To have Lou Xi easily admit that Ji Nanming was her brother was indeed a bit difficult.
"Hello, I’ve heard so much about you." Qin Mobai reached out to shake hands amiably with Ji Nanming.
Ji Nanming’s expression was natural, and the slight probing that had appeared in his eyes quickly faded away as he reached out to shake hands with Qin Mobai.
"Finally we meet, you’ve always been living in Lou Xi’s words." The implication being that when Lou Xi was with Ji Nanming, she talked the most about Qin Mobai.
Getting this hint, Qin Mobai’s mood seemed to improve even more.
"She’s always like this, clingy."
"I actually think Lou Xi is quite mature."
"Perhaps she acts mature in front of you, but in front of me, she’s just a child."
With a few exchanges, Lou Xi clearly felt that Qin Mobai had the upper hand.
Within the conversation, he made the relationship between Qin Mobai and Lou Xi sound closer, while Ji Nanming seemed like an outsider.
Because Lou Xi was close to Qin Mobai, she acted like a child in front of him. Since she wasn’t close to Ji Nanming, she acted mature in front of him.
How does that saying go? If a girl doesn’t like you, she can act more mature in front of you than your own mother.
Listening to this, it sounds right!
After hearing Qin Mobai’s words, Ji Nanming’s expression changed imperceptibly. He hadn’t even shown any intentions towards Lou Xi, yet Qin Mobai was already being so defensive.
If he really did something, wouldn’t Qin Mobai blow his top?
Rumor has it that Qin Mobai is the East Asian Little Vinegar King, and this reputation is indeed well-deserved.
"Let’s find time to have a meal together, get to know each other properly." Ji Nanming suggested.
"Sure, I’ll make a reservation and let you know once we confirm the time." Qin Mobai replied.
Lou Xi just watched Qin Mobai and Ji Nanming going back and forth, unable to get a word in.
Finally, when the two stopped their conversation, Lou Xi said, "It’s getting late, everyone should go to work!"
Qin Mobai looked deeply at Lou Xi and reminded her, "Do well at work and don’t embarrass me."
"You say that as if I can’t do anything."
"If you don’t understand something, ask around. If you feel wronged, come home. I can still afford to support you!"
"Now that you’ve said that, I’m afraid I want to leave with you right now." Lou Xi joked.
"Works for me."
"No way!"
Ji Nanming watched the couple’s affection unfold before his eyes, a faint smile remaining in his gaze.
"Alright, go on up." Qin Mobai timely ceased the teasing with Lou Xi, "I’ll come pick you up tonight."
"Okay."
Lou Xi watched Qin Mobai drive away, then turned around to find Ji Nanming still there, causing her to blush slightly.
Ji Nanming had witnessed all the affection she just shared with Qin Mobai!
"Seems like you’re in a good mood." Ji Nanming said as he walked into the building.
Of course she’s in a good mood, because Qin Mobai was once again there, vividly standing by her side.
