Chapter 553 I am also very fragile and innocent
Xia Weibao, "..."
That was a bit awkward.
She felt somewhat guilty, for although she was clearly a lady, she always seemed to act like a tomboy.
She looked around.
No problem, luckily she was hidden in a dark corner, and no one knew it was her doing.
The pavilion collapsed, such a big commotion disturbed Xu Jiayang and Chu Ying up ahead.
Chu Ying quickly put on a mask and sunglasses and ran off in the other direction.
Xia Weibao saved the recording she had just made.
Then she quickly ran out.
Just in time to meet Xu Jiayang’s indescribable gaze.
Her Majesty the Empress felt a bit guilty and pointed aimlessly with her finger, "I couldn’t sleep, just took a walk here, came over to see after seeing the pavilion fall, didn’t expect to run into you, such a coincidence, Director Xu, hehe."
Xu Jiayang, "..."
If I didn’t know your true colors, I might have believed you!
"How did you manage to knock down somebody’s pavilion," Xu Jiayang said, quite speechlessly.
"It wasn’t me, it was the wind, the wind blew it down, didn’t you see the strong wind just now? It nearly blew me away.
Ah, being too thin isn’t good either, I need to eat more in the future."
Xu Jiayang gave her a Wang Dachui kind of look.
"Really, it wasn’t me. How strong that pavilion was, look at me, such a frail girl, how could I possibly push it down, right?"
To add credibility to her words, Her Majesty the Empress even pretended to support her forehead.
Instantly, she was channeling Lin Daiyu.
Knowing she loves to play the lady, Xu Jiayang didn’t expose her.
"Let’s go, it’s not good to get caught later, no money to compensate."
Saying this, he turned and walked in another direction.
"Really, it wasn’t me, Director Xu, you have to believe me, how could I have the strength to push down such a big pavilion, I swear I absolutely did not push it!"
She indeed hadn’t pushed it; she’d simply flicked it with a pebble.
She wasn’t lying, right?
"Okay okay okay, you didn’t push it, will you join me for a drink?"
The two found a bar nearby, and Xu Jiayang ordered several dozen beers.
Xia Weibao swallowed nervously, so many, are they trying to drink themselves to death?
Xu Jiayang picked up a bottle of beer but realized there was no bottle opener.
After searching and not finding one, he guessed the waiter must have forgotten to bring one.
"I’ll go get a bottle opener."
As he spoke and was about to get up, Xia Weibao had already picked up a bottle of beer with one hand.
"No need, bottle openers are such a hassle, I’ll help you open it."
Then, biting onto one of the bottles, she popped it open with a bang.
Bang, bang, bang, in just two or three moves, she had opened all the bottle caps with her teeth, arranging them neatly on the coffee table.
Xu Jiayang was dumbstruck.
And Xia Weibao had already sat back upright on the couch, in the very proper, ladylike manner.
Legs together and tilted, hands neatly placed on her knees, she then looked at Xu Jiayang with utmost sincerity.
You couldn’t tell at all that the person who’d just bitten the bottle cap was her.
Xu Jiayang stared at her in shock for several seconds before he came to his senses.
Sitting down on the couch, he picked up a bottle and took a swig.
"Actually, having a tomboy personality like yours isn’t bad, it’s straightforward, easy to see through."
Being called a tomboy, Her Majesty the Empress was displeased.
"That’s not right. Actually, I am a lady; you’ve got the wrong word, Director Xu."
Xu Jiayang just smiled, didn’t respond to her words, and kept talking to himself.
"She has a personality completely opposite to yours, very delicate, very innocent, the kind of woman that stirs a man’s desire to protect at first glance."
Hearing his words, Her Majesty the Empress really wanted to say, she too was very delicate and innocent.
She too was a lady needing a man’s protection.
