Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 126
Chapter 126 See You at the Coffee Shop
“Sigh.” Tang Yuxin sighed. It was better for her brother to settle his own matters. “Then we’ll see you later.”
After hanging up the phone, An Zixi simply tidied himself up and hurriedly left the house. She called Lin Qiyuan and asked him to wait for her at the coffee shop.
Fortunately, it had been agreed a few days ago, so Lin Qiyuan had already arranged everything. Only then did An Zixi feel that he did not bother Lin Qiyuan too much.
Tang Jin Chen stood outside and looked out through the window. This place was very quiet, and very few people would come. Back then, she had also taken a fancy to its silence, so she chose this place. At that time, she did not think too much about it. At the very least, she did not have much opinion of An Zixi. But now, she realized that An Zixi treated him differently, but An Zixi began to treat him coldly again.
Outside the door, he could still hear An Zixi’s voice. It wasn’t very loud, but it was less reserved and indifferent when he spoke to him. He was really at a loss about their current relationship. One had to know that he had always had his own thoughts, but he had always been uncertain about An Zixi’s matter.
An Zixi crossed his arms and thought. She used to like Tang Jin Chen so much. She didn’t hesitate to tear her face off with her family for him. However, what Tang Jin Chen gave her was humiliation again and again. From this, she could no longer have the slightest illusion about him. They were people from two different worlds after all.
An Zixi was just thinking when a phone rang again, interrupting her train of thought. She picked up her phone and connected it without thinking.
‘”Hey–” A clear voice came from the microphone, but Li Yu, who was far away, was depressed.
Li Yu remembered what Tang Jin Chen had asked him to investigate a few days ago. Didn’t he say that An Zi Xi was very cold to him recently? Why did it get better so quickly?
Although Li Yu thought about it like this, he didn’t say it out loud. He just asked uncertainly, “An Zixi?”
Only then did An Zixi realize that she was actually holding Tang Jin Chen’s phone. She was instantly annoyed that she was so quick-handed. Her expression was a little awkward, but Tang Jin Chen, who just happened to come in, saw her.
Tang Jin Chen heard his phone ring again and came in. He was surprised to see An Zi Xi’s embarrassed face. In fact, he felt that it was funny. An Zi Xi was still the same temperament, but what exactly happened between them made her reject him a thousand miles away.
An Zixi handed the phone to Tang Jin Chen and did not say anything. He only inadvertently rolled his eyes and discovered that he seemed to be looking at him.
Tang Jin Chen held his phone to his ear without even looking at it, but his eyes were also fixed on An Zi Xi.
‘”Hello–” Tang Jin Chen’s calm voice sounded.
Li Yu started to make a fuss over there, “Tang Jin Chen, didn’t you say–”
“Li Yu.”
Upon hearing Li Yu’s voice, Tang Jin Chen subconsciously glanced at An Zi Xi and then turned around to leave.
An Zixi felt that his gaze before leaving was unfathomable, but she did not think too much. Seeing Tang Jin Chen close the door, she got up and wanted to take a bath in the bathroom. She lowered her head to look at the imprint on her body, and her beautiful eyebrows furrowed. She feared that she would not be able to go out to see anyone like this.
After Tang Jin Chen left, he asked, “Li Yu, what did I ask you to investigate?”
Li Yu originally wanted to ask Tang Jin Chen endlessly, but at that time, he heard Tang Jin Chen tell him to stop talking. With the tacit understanding that he had known Tang Jin Chen for many years, he naturally knew that it was Tang Jin Chen who wanted him to shut up. Only when Tang Jin Chen asked him now would he be able to speak.
‘”Tang Jin Chen, I didn’t say you. You’re already with An Zi Xi. What else do you want to investigate? Just ask her directly. It’s not interesting enough. I’m lucky to have been investigating this. You need to know …”
“Li Yu,” Tang Jin Chen interrupted Li Yu before he could finish, “I’m asking you how you’re doing. I’m not listening to your nonsense here.”
“Ah, ah, I was just about to tell you. Still, there’s no progress.” Li Yu said.
“Mm, then why did you call me?” Tang Jin Chen was somewhat speechless. He thought that he had found something, but it turned out that there was nothing.
“Jin Chen, I want to tell you that I can’t help you for the time being. Something has happened at home, so I need to go back and deal with it.” Li Yu’s voice was a little heavy, causing Tang Jin Chen, who was on the other end of the phone, to realize the importance of the matter.
“Is it troublesome?” Tang Jin Chen asked.
“A little, but I can handle it. Don’t worry.”
“Alright.”
Tang Jin Chen hung up the phone and casually threw it onto the sofa. Then, he pressed his hand on his head and closed his eyes to meditate.
Right now, Li Yu had no choice but to leave. He had no choice but to stop investigating half of his work. It really gave him a headache. He was getting more and more helpless towards An Zixi.
Lin Qiyuan was sitting by the window in the cafe, where beautiful music was playing. He came very early. This coffee shop was quiet. He always liked to come here for coffee and sit for a while.
It was not that the waiters here did not know him, but they never came to disturb him, but treated him as if he were an ordinary guest. Here, Lin Qiyuan felt a sense of reality as an ordinary person. Therefore, Lin Qiyuan would come whenever he was free.
This time, An Zixi chose the place. He was very diligent and knew that he liked it, so he chose this coffee shop.
The cafe’s terrain was relatively high, facing south. Looking out of the window, it was a river. The river breeze blew over, and the pores on his entire body would stretch out.
The people who came here were usually people from the upper class. If they wanted to find a pure land, they would choose to sit here. Lin Qiyuan was one of them.
Lin Qiyuan sat down for a while and saw An Zixi coming from afar. He waved his hand at her and said, “Zixi.”
An Zixi also saw Lin Qiyuan at a glance. After all, he was a beautiful man. Among the crowd, he could be found at a glance. An Zixi was still following Tang Yuxin. When Tang Yuxin saw the person in front of her, she almost fainted from excitement.
Oh, my God, she’s not mistaken. Who would have thought that An Zixi, who had always been quiet and weak, would actually know superstar Lin Qiyuan? Moreover, she never thought that meeting him one day would be too exciting.
Lin Qiyuan had never seen anyone beside An Zixi before. Even so, when the two of them sat down in front of him, Lin Qiyuan still nodded at Tang Yuxin.
Tang Yu Xin was so excited that she almost couldn’t speak when she saw the handsome Lin Qiyuan nod at her. However, when she saw An Zixi’s calm expression, it wasn’t easy for her to show it too clearly.
Right now, she only wanted to hug An Zixi tightly and give her a few sweet kisses. This sister-in-law of hers is really great. It’s really great to find Lin Qiyuan to meet me.
“Xiao Qi, have you been waiting for a long time?”
The waiter delivered three cups of coffee. Lin Qiyuan ordered two cups, but the waiter delivered one. This cafe was so considerate that it would not embarrass any guests.
Lin Qiyuan had not expected Tang Yuxin to appear. He had only helped An Zixi and himself order each other’s favorite coffee. As for Tang Yuxin, she could only drink the same coffee with An Zixi.
Although it wasn’t his favorite coffee, Tang Yuxin didn’t care at all. Instead, she held An Zixi’s hand and was so nervous that her palms started to sweat.
“Zixi, is he Lin Qiyuan? I’m not dreaming, am I? He really is Lin Qiyuan.”
Although his voice was low, Lin Qiyuan could hear it clearly. Lin Qiyuan smiled charmingly.
“Hello, I’m Lin Qiyuan.”
“Heavens, I really thought I was dreaming.”
Lin Qiyuan’s attitude towards Tang Yuxin was extremely good. After all, he was brought here by An Zixi, and he usually didn’t show any indifference towards others. However, they weren’t indifferent, and very few people took the initiative to greet him. The reason why they took the initiative today was because of An Zixi.
An Zixi never brought anyone else to meet him, but today he brought a little girl. Lin Qiyuan could already guess that An Zixi had come to find him today because of something.
An Zixi held Tang Yuxin’s hand tightly, indicating that she should not be too nervous. She looked up at Lin Qiyuan again. She didn’t have the guts to say anything, but Tang Yuxin was already here. She had to say it without saying anything.
“Xiao Qi, I called you here today because I have something to tell you.”
Lin Qiyuan picked up the coffee on the table and lowered his head. He took a sip of the coffee. The fragrance was refreshing. He was very happy. Now, the person he missed day and night was sitting opposite him. He was completely focused on An Zixi, so how could he care about Tang Yuxin beside him?
“What is it? Tell me.” Lin Qiyuan noticed the hesitation on An Zixi’s face and smiled, wanting her to relax.
An Zixi bit his lips and said, “This is Tang Yuxin, my good friend.”
Lin Qiyuan put down his coffee and frowned. However, Lin Qiyuan felt uncomfortable in his heart. He looked up at Tang Yuxin, who was also surnamed Tang?
“Your good friend? I rarely heard of you.”
An Zixi nodded noncommittally. In front of Lin Qiyuan, An Zixi rarely mentioned her own matters. Moreover, she and Tang Yuxin were not friends at all. If it weren’t for Tang Jin Chen, nothing would have happened between them. It was just that she had always treated her well, that was why she wanted to help her.
“Yes, I rarely say, but she is really my good friend.”
An Zixi once again stated this untrue fact. Lin Qiyuan raised his head to look at her, puzzled. Something was wrong with An Zixi today.
“I know that she is your good friend. Then why did you call me out today? Zixi?”
An Zixi looked at Lin Qiyuan hesitantly, not knowing how to speak. Tang Yuxin, who was beside him, looked at Lin Qiyuan with a look of anticipation and admiration.
What Lin Qiyuan hated the most was people relying on connections to enter the entertainment industry. He believed that An Zixi would not do such a thing, but judging from today’s situation, it was very possible.
