Chapter 134: A loving couple

Xia Qingyi, who had been in the washroom, did not know about the tense conversation between the two. She was currently leaning against the basin, not wanting to go out as another person might appear and tell her about what had happened in the past if she were to walk out. She feared this complete unknown feeling. What she wanted to do the most now was to sit on the rug in the living room at Mo Han’s house, watching television as she ate snacks while waiting for Mo Han to return.

Though, she did not know when she could do that again.

Xia Qingyi glanced at her watch. She was dejected to find that about 20 minutes had passed. It would seem odd if she did not go back out.

Xia Qingyi freshened up a little. She walked out of the bathroom and happened to be face-to-face to Xiao Mei who had gone to the washroom as well.

“Sister Nian Nian, did you come for the washroom?”

“Yes.” Xia Qingyi wanted to turn and leave.

Xiao Mei stopped her. “Sister Nian Nian.”

Xia Qingyi was still a little unaccustomed to this name. She stopped and looked at her. “Yes?”

“You seem to be a little different.” Xiao Mei said.

“How am I different?” Xia Qingyi asked.

“You and Brother Han. Did you fight with Brother Han?”

“No.”

“Then why did both of you look slightly unhappy today? You didn’t seem very willing when Brother Han held your hand earlier in the afternoon as well. Did Brother Han do something to make you angry?”

“No.” Xia Qingyi smiled and shook her head. How was she going to explain what had happened between them to this girl in front of her?

Xia Qingyi thought for a while, before she asked Xiao Mei, “Do you have any photos of me from the past?”

“Yes. Why?”

“Can you show me?”

Xiao Mei could not understand why she wanted to see photos from the past, though she still took out her mobile phone. She started to search her photos from her phone’s gallery.

“Here, this one.” Xiao Mei showed Xia Qingyi her phone.

The photo was a selfie of the two of them. Xiao Mei was smiling sweetly with an arm around her shoulder.

“Are there any others?”

“Swipe down then. There’s a few more behind.”

She swiped to the other photos. There was a photo behind that was a full-body shot of her. Or to be exact, it was a full-body shot of Han Liang and her. They did not seem to know that the camera was there. Han Liang was looking at a computer while she had her arm linked in his as she smiled widely at him.

Xiao Mei said, “This photo was taken at your house. You’d invited many staff from the restaurant to go play at your house. After the meal, I just happened to see the both of you smiling in the living room. That’s why I took this photo.”

“Did I have a very good relationship with him in the past?” Xia Qingyi asked.

Xiao Mei looked at her in disbelief. “How could you ask such a question? The both of you were always joined at the hip like Siamese twins. It made all of us around you very jealous everyday. If you didn’t have a good relationship, then who did?”

Xiao Mei felt a little weird. Why did Sister Nian Nian seem unhappy today? That was why she asked, “Sister Nian Nian, what’s wrong?”

Xia Qingyi smiled reluctantly. “Nothing.”

“Sister Nian Nian, you’ve finally come back after all the trouble. Don’t worry. The both of you are so in love with each other. You’ll get through anything.”

Xia Qingyi returned her phone to her. “Thank you. I should go back. They’re probably a little anxious from waiting for me.”

When Xia Qingyi had returned, the two of them were each sitting in a corner as they ate silently. It looked like nothing had happened, though Xia Qingyi did not think too much about it. All of her thoughts were on that few photos that Xiao Mei had showed her earlier.

“Why did you go for such a long time?” Han Liang got up and pulled out a chair for her.

“I met Xiao Mei when I was done and we chatted for a while.”

“You can remember her?”

Xia Qingyi shook her head. She picked up a pair of chopsticks and ate with her head bowed. In her peripheral view, she could see that Mo Han’s expression was a little cloudy for some unknown reason.
