"Clinging like a leech! This type of person is hard to deal with." Xiao Yifei remarked with a bit of emotion. At this moment, Liu Rui snorted coldly and said, "What's the big deal? If he dares to appear in front of Qianxi again, I'll personally beat him up until he doesn't dare show up again!"
Liu Rui's solution sounded very violent, but if it could make Ren Tianye give up, it would be okay. The worry was that even with such measures, Ren Tianye might not give up easily. Moreover, Liu Rui was saying this out of anger, so whatever happens would be up to him.
"If only it were that easy!" Qianxi helplessly pouted. Qianxi had tried Liu Rui's method before; every time Ren Tianye showed up, Qianxi would beat him until he was running with his tail between his legs. But what was the use? He still hung around her.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei chuckled with resignation, then suddenly asked about the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle because it was still in Ren Tianye's possession. Xiao Yifei wanted to find out more about it. Hearing the question, Qianxi was at a loss for words.
Of course, Qianxi's speechlessness wasn't directed at Xiao Yifei but at Ren Tianye. The first day Ren Tianye came looking for Qianxi, she told him to bring the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle, or she wouldn't see him. However, after all these days, Ren Tianye hadn't handed it over, showing how hard it was to get it from him.
Qianxi then explained this to Xiao Yifei. After hearing it, Xiao Yifei felt a bit hopeless. Even in the face of the woman he liked, Ren Tianye wouldn't hand over the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle that Qianxi wanted, let alone to him. Thinking of this, Xiao Yifei shook his head in resignation, feeling at a loss about the whole matter.
Seeing this, Qianxi clicked her tongue, her face full of displeasure. For a moment, the atmosphere among the three of them became slightly somber. Liu Rui's anger, Qianxi's displeasure, and Xiao Yifei's dejection mixed together, leaving all three at a loss for words.
Time slowly passed, and no one knew how long it had been when suddenly a doorbell rang. By now, it was almost dusk, and they wondered who could be visiting at this hour. With this question in mind, Qianxi slowly stood up and walked to the door.
Frowning a little, Qianxi hesitated before reaching out and opening the door. However, the next second, she regretted it. Why did she open the door? Standing outside was a figure Qianxi knew all too well—none other than Ren Tianye.
"Miss Qianxi." Ren Tianye greeted her with delight. After realizing that waiting for Qianxi on her way home from work wasn't effective, Ren Tianye decided to visit her home directly, leaving Qianxi with no place to hide. So here was the reason for Ren Tianye's appearance.
Ren Tianye still held a bouquet of flowers. His old trick had been used repeatedly until now, and Qianxi had to admire his persistence. Xiao Yifei and Liu Rui, hearing the commotion, also came to the doorway. Seeing the man outside, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but pat his forehead. In his eyes, Ren Tianye was like a fly that just wouldn't go away.
Seeing Xiao Yifei's reaction, Liu Rui frowned and asked him who the person across the way was. Liu Rui hadn't met Ren Tianye before, so he asked Xiao Yifei. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei seemed quite resigned, sighing as he said, "That's Ren Tianye."
Learning that this man was Ren Tianye, Liu Rui's face immediately turned sour, and his gaze toward Ren Tianye was unfriendly. Ren Tianye, seeing two new men appear, also frowned. He didn't think much about Xiao Yifei, but who was this other stranger?
Ren Tianye's heart was filled with a bad premonition, and his gaze at Liu Rui was just as hostile. Seeing Ren Tianye refuse to back down, Liu Rui sneered, pulled Qianxi into his arms, and held her.
Seeing this scene, Ren Tianye's jaw dropped in shock. This man was actually holding Qianxi! Ren Tianye suddenly felt a surge of anger, yet this wasn't the key issue. The key problem was that Qianxi seemed quite accustomed to it, showing no sign of resistance.
From this, Ren Tianye could guess Liu Rui's identity as Qianxi's boyfriend. However, Xiao Yifei's next words sent Ren Tianye into a state of complete collapse. "Ah, let me introduce you, Mr. Ren. This is Liu Rui, my friend, and also Qianxi's fiancé."
Xiao Yifei deliberately said this to provoke Ren Tianye, and as expected, when Ren Tianye heard that Liu Rui was Qianxi's fiancé, his expression subtly twitched, appearing somewhat despondent.
At this moment, Liu Rui looked at Qianxi with a doting smile, then turned to Ren Tianye and said, "Hello!" Liu Rui's smile was polite but clearly feigned, as he had no goodwill toward Ren Tianye. Ren Tianye awkwardly nodded and echoed a simple "hello."
Yet, the flowers in Ren Tianye's hand betrayed everything. The bouquet only added to the awkwardness of the situation. Ren Tianye gave Liu Rui a blank look and then hid the flowers behind his back. "So you're Qianxi's fiancé?" Ren Tianye asked Liu Rui with a hint of anger.
Hearing this, Liu Rui nodded generously, "Yes, that's me. Indeed." Liu Rui's deliberately polite tone made Ren Tianye's face darken as he glared at Liu Rui, suddenly feeling very annoyed. After a moment, Ren Tianye said something that left Xiao Yifei both amused and exasperated: "So ugly!"
"So ugly." Yes, Xiao Yifei did hear Ren Tianye's muttered remark. Ren Tianye was actually mocking Liu Rui, and his tone was as childish as could be. Xiao Yifei thought to himself as he glanced at Liu Rui.
Liu Rui, too, heard the muttering, and his face took on an unpleasant expression. Just as he was about to react, Ren Tianye waved his hand and said, "I've got things to do, so I'm leaving." He quickly turned and left Qianxi's doorstep, looking quite flustered.
Seeing this, Liu Rui waved his fist at Ren Tianye's retreating figure, but since Ren Tianye had already gone, there wasn't much more he could do. Seeing Liu Rui like this, Qianxi couldn't help but chuckle and asked, "What, are you unhappy now?"
Hearing this, Liu Rui touched his nose and said, "I have nothing to be unhappy about." Seeing Liu Rui like this, Qianxi knew he wasn't being sincere, so she laughed and said, "Don't be angry, it's not worth it to get mad over someone like that." Speaking, she ran her hand over Liu Rui's chest soothingly.
Since Qianxi was comforting him like that, Liu Rui would seem petty if he stayed angry, so he smiled and nodded. Off to the side, Xiao Yifei watched the affectionate pair and awkwardly grinned, realizing he was like a third wheel here. So, he told them he had something to do and left.
