Chapter 122 Extraordinary
Jiang Qin, still staring at her phone, didn't notice the change in Song Xinye's expression as he looked at her phone after glancing at her.
But when Song Xinye's low, magnetic voice, tinged with a rare coolness and a hint of mockery, rang out, it didn't seem out of place to her.
"What's going on? Are they being threatened?"
It was at this moment that Su Lejia, who was more focused on the food after it was served, realized that something seemed off.
"What's wrong?" Su Lejia was confused after just finishing a bite of stir-fried pork.
Jiang Qin shook her head, put her phone in her bag, glanced at Su Lejia, and then looked at Song Xinye.
"It's nothing, I wasn't threatened. Let's eat, it's nothing."
This matter isn't really that big of a deal—a few pictures of Su Lejia and the man diagonally opposite her that had been clearly photoshopped out were sent to me by Huo Sili.
Without a doubt, that picture was taken by Yuan Lianqing, who was standing over there just now.
At this point, Jiang Qin herself found the whole thing ridiculous, absurd, and dramatic.
After all, she used to think that her mother-in-law was quite annoying. But even though she found her mother-in-law annoying, from Yuan Lianqing's perspective, she was a Cinderella who had married her prince son. She was unhappy, but she also understood.
But this behavior, this kind of behavior...
For some reason, Jiang Qin felt that Yuan Lianqing, who did this, was probably the kind of bully who would lead the way in bullying classmates when she was young—in other words, the rich version.
Besides this reason, there was another point that Jiang Qin also found extremely funny—
How could Huo Sili not notice that people have been photoshopped out of such an obvious picture?
He could definitely tell, he definitely knew that the person she was having dinner with right now wasn't just Song Xinye sitting across from her.
And it's highly likely that Su Lejia was with her.
However, he still used this as so-called evidence to remind her.
She and he are not divorced yet, so she should be mindful of her behavior.
The concept of "discretion" seemed utterly ridiculous to Jiang Qin.
To borrow a phrase my best friend once said to her in private—how can this person have the nerve?
However, apart from life-or-death illnesses, everything else is trivial.
Moreover, this incident at most only reaffirmed her belief that her marriage with Horstley had to end.
Therefore, this matter was only a minor issue for her.
After putting her phone in her bag, Jiang Qin really didn't think about it anymore. She glanced at Su Lejia and Song Xinye, and said a few more times, "Let's eat, it's really nothing."
Hearing her best friend say this, and looking at the two men across from her, as well as Song Xinye's brothers at the table in front of her, Su Lejia decided to continue eating.
Even if something really happened right now, it's definitely not convenient to talk about it with so many people around.
The two girls had calmed down, but Song Xinye, on the other hand, clearly hadn't.
"He's not back yet. Go check what's going on." Song Xinye turned slightly to look at the man sitting next to him.
The man stood up almost immediately. "Okay, Brother Song."
Then he strode out briskly.
Su Lejia, who was diagonally opposite, sensed something strange in the air again and slowed down her eating.
What's going on? If it were a brother, you definitely wouldn't give orders like that, right?
Does this sound more like giving orders to subordinates?
But why is a subordinate called "brother"? Are they colleagues? Or are they superiors and subordinates?
"Um, bro, if I may ask, what's your profession? A soldier?"
Su Lejia was really curious and tried to hold it in, but she couldn't.
For some inexplicable reason, she felt that this man's identity was unusual, and consequently, she couldn't help but worry about her best friend's safety.
After all, if this person's situation is unclear, too much contact would definitely not be good.
Moreover, this person is being a little too nice to her best friend. What if he likes her best friend and starts to pester her?
However, Su Lejia was clearly mistaken.
“No, my profession isn’t that honorable.” Song Xinye’s tone sounded like he was joking, but for some reason, it sent a chill down your spine. “I’m in business.”
