Wan Yunting originally wanted Gu Luotang to stay overnight, but he still had to find Su Ke’er. He left her boudoir under her reluctant gaze, preparing to leave directly…
As a result, he saw a slender figure sitting alone in a small pavilion in a small courtyard next door. On the table were several beer bottles and two bags of potato chips. Qi Miaomiao, with a frown, was drinking alone, looking dejected…
This scene made Wan Yunting confused, not knowing why this girl was acting like this. So he entered the courtyard and walked towards the small pavilion, calling out, "Miaomiao, what are you doing? Why are you drinking alone?"
Hearing a man's voice from behind, Qi Miaomiao trembled and quickly turned her head. Seeing it was Wan Yunting, she heaved a sigh of relief and put down the beer bottle, saying in annoyance, "Brother Yunting, you scared me to death. I thought it was someone else."
"If you have nothing to hide, why would you be scared? Tell me, why are you drinking alone? Did you break up?"
These words made Qi Miaomiao pout, looking bitter and unhappy. She followed his words and said, "Yes, I broke up. I'm very unhappy now."
"Oh, really."
Wan Yunting immediately sat down. He picked up a can of beer and found it was empty. He glanced at Qi Miaomiao and laughed, "You're lying to me, aren't you? I haven't seen you in a relationship with anyone, so how could you have broken up?"
As soon as Qi Miaomiao heard this, she became angry. She glared with wide eyes, her cheeks puffed out, and she huffed, "You haven't paid attention to me, so how do you know if I've ever been in a relationship?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Then tell me, who bullied you? I'll go and deal with him for you."
Qi Miaomiao gave him a lingering glance, took a sip of wine, and huffed, "I won't tell you."
Wan Yunting looked at her and smiled, "Little one, do you still consider me your brother?"
Qi Miaomiao said angrily, "You're not my brother."
"Then what am I to you?"
Wan Yunting looked at her, then chuckled, "Brother-in-law?"
"Pfft."
Qi Miaomiao rolled her eyes at him and said, "You haven't married my sister yet, so why are you calling yourself brother-in-law?"
Wan Yunting waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's only a matter of time."
"I don't believe you."
Qi Miaomiao squinted at him and huffed, "We know your real girlfriend is Fang Yanxi. You and my sister are secretly together."
Having this girl expose it so openly made Wan Yunting a bit awkward and embarrassed. He smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. When the time is right, I will naturally make it public with your sister."
Qi Miaomiao stared at him with her big eyes, then suddenly stood up and pointed at Wan Yunting, "Brother Yunting, you're so greedy, you're thinking of two-timing! This is scumbag behavior."
Wan Yunting awkwardly touched his nose and said with a wry smile, "What can I do? If you asked me to choose, I wouldn't be able to give up either of them, so why bother choosing?"
This statement completely stunned Qi Miaomiao, and a hint of secret delight even arose in her heart!
If, if she also wanted to be with Brother Yunting, would he…?
"Oh, Brother Yunting, you're such a big scumbag. Not to mention that a man can marry two women now, even if you and my sister are willing, my master, and her parents wouldn't agree." Qi Miaomiao blushed, but she still found it hard to accept.
Wan Yunting stood up, smiled, and said, "Let's talk about these troublesome matters later. In short, happiness is most important right now."
Qi Miaomiao rolled her big eyes, pouted, and huffed, "Scumbag quotes, they're all the same. Aren't you afraid my sister will find out?"
"She knows."
Wan Yunting spread his hands, smiling wryly, "Your sister is very smart. She doesn't say anything, but I understand her thoughts. In short, you wouldn't understand."
"Hmph."
Qi Miaomiao's eyes flickered, and she snorted dismissively, "What's there not to understand? You're just relying on how much my sister loves you, that's why you're so scum."
This made Wan Yunting speechless. He said, "Miaomiao, I'm sincere towards your sister. I will be responsible for her in the future."
"Tch, just a scumbag."
Qi Miaomiao gave an arrogant eye-roll, and inexplicably thought to herself: Why don't you be a scumbag to me too…
"Alright, I'm too lazy to talk to you. I'm going back."
Wan Yunting waved his hand, preparing to leave. Qi Miaomiao immediately turned around and called out to him, "Brother Yunting, can't you stay and keep me company for a while?"
"Aren't you heartbroken? Continue drinking alone. I still have things to do and need to go back. You should also…"
"No…"
"Precisely because I'm heartbroken, you should stay and keep me company! You've never been to my place before. I'll show you around…"
"Okay, okay, I'll keep you company, but let me go first…"
Wan Yunting truly felt uncomfortable being held by this girl’s arm like this; it was too unbearable. Seeing this, Qi Miaomiao realized she had lost her composure and let go of his arm, instead holding his arm and happily dragging Wan Yunting into her boudoir to tour…
When he usually came to the Gu Mansion, he would either be in Gu Yuanbai's study or in Gu Luotang's courtyard boudoir. He had never been to Qi Miaomiao's separate courtyard boudoir. Seeing the girl's boudoir decorated in a modern style, full of girlish charm, especially with many clothes scattered on the bed and the room being quite messy, it was clearly Qi Miaomiao's style.
Wan Yunting smiled and shook his head, "Miaomiao, why are you so different from your sister?"
"What's wrong? How am I not as good as my sister?"
This made Qi Miaomiao unhappy. She immediately shook off his arm, walked to her bed huffily, and started tidying things up.
Wan Yunting realized his words were wrong and went up with a smile, "I didn't mean it like that…"
"It's okay, you don't need to explain."
Qi Miaomiao straightened up, turned her head, and squinted at Wan Yunting with her big eyes, pouting and huffing, "You're right. Whether it's talent or beauty, I'm not as good as my sister, which is why you like her so much and don't like me."
This made Wan Yunting scratch the back of his head, and he said with a wry smile, "Sweat, why do you see yourself like this? In fact, you have many advantages that your sister doesn't have. For example, you are cheerful, smart, eloquent, and your talent is not much worse than your sister's. These aspects are much better than your sister's, aren't they?"
"Really?"
Qi Miaomiao's blushing cheeks immediately revealed a happy smile. She squinted at him charmingly with her big eyes and said with a smile, "Am I really as good as you say?"
"Absolutely."
Wan Yunting nodded with a smile and said, "Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. For example, your sister's shortcomings are that she is rather shy, not good at socializing, and very naive. But you are different. In terms of personality, you surpass your sister. This is your advantage."
"Hehe, I thought I didn't have any advantages."
Qi Miaomiao giggled happily and immediately went up to hug Wan Yunting's arm naturally again. Her big eyes gazed at him and she said with a smile, "Then Brother Yunting, why do you like my sister and not me?"
Wan Yunting sat directly on her large bed. Qi Miaomiao also sat down, still holding his arm. Wan Yunting turned his head and glanced at her, saying, "Who says I don't like you? I've always liked you."
Qi Miaomiao was stunned, but she understood that the affection the man spoke of was only platonic, not romantic. She immediately pouted and said, "Not that kind of liking, but the kind of liking you have for my sister, like that…"
This made Wan Yunting's expression freeze. He stared blankly at the shy girl, then raised his hand to touch Qi Miaomiao's forehead and cheeks, "Miaomiao, are you sick? Or did you drink too much?"
Qi Miaomiao took his hand away, put it down, and said angrily with a small face, "Brother Yunting, you're really annoying sometimes. I'm angry."
Wan Yunting smiled and said, "I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I like you, I like all of you, alright?"
"Tch, you're just placating me." Qi Miaomiao turned her head away, pouting unhappily.
Wan Yunting felt a little helpless and said comfortingly, "Miaomiao, don't be angry. How about I send you a few sets of new Hanfu later?"
"No."
Qi Miaomiao turned her face, looking at him resentfully with her big eyes, and pouted, "If you want me to not be angry, you can kiss me!"
This made Wan Yunting's expression freeze. He immediately pulled his arm out of her hands, moved his butt away, and said exaggeratedly, "Miaomiao, you're also a young lady. Can we be a bit more reserved?"
"Oh, you said this is my advantage, just kiss me…"
"It's not that, Miaomiao. Reserve is a girl's bottom line. You can't be like this…"
"No, I want a kiss, Brother Yunting, hurry…"
Qi Miaomiao ignored everything, pounced forward, tightly hugged Wan Yunting, and directly pushed him onto the bed…
Facing this girl's frantic actions, Wan Yunting was speechless and could only say, "Okay, okay, I'll kiss you. Stop moving around, alright? I won't be able to stand it…"
Qi Miaomiao, who was lying on him, was happy when he agreed. She immediately closed her eyes, pouted, and said, "Come on, kiss me quickly…"
Seeing the girl's expectant and prepared look, Wan Yunting found it amusing. He leaned forward and kissed Qi Miaomiao's forehead. She immediately opened her eyes and stared, touching her forehead that had been kissed, and said angrily, "Brother Yunting, not the forehead, it's the lips, the lips…"
"Kiss what lips? This is inappropriate if you keep this up. Get up…"
