You are all bad women! Don't come over!

Chapter 243 237: Anticipation

The meeting place was also near Qingyao Square, and it seemed like the second sister had done her research, knowing that this place was a landmark building in Yu Huai City.

"I'm going to..."

As they were heading towards the agreed location, Shen Mochen suddenly took a step back, hiding at the corner of the entrance to a luxury boutique.

"What's wrong?" Xia Qingrou was startled.

"Nothing." Shen Mochen looked down and pretended to be interested in the display behind the glass wall, coughing, "You go ahead, I'll follow in a moment."

Xia Qingrou glared at him, "What's gotten into you all of a sudden?"

"I... have a stomach ache, need to use the bathroom," Shen Mochen maintained his position facing the display.

"Nervous..." Xia Qingrou glanced at the bracelet in the showcase and muttered quietly, "Well, hurry up!"

After saying that, she grumbled to herself as she walked towards the designated place.

Phew... Shen Mochen let out a long breath and quickly stepped into the store. That was close, he had actually just seen You Feicheng and Gu Yange cheerfully walking down the street together... To say cheerfully walking didn't seem quite right either, as both of their faces didn't look too good, like they had just been dumped by a scumbag.

He didn't have much of a liking for these two women, and there wasn't much of a relationship between them. But if they were to see him walking so intimately with Xia Qingrou, it would undoubtedly cause unnecessary trouble.

After hiding for a while, Shen Mochen guessed that the two had left, and he came out with his head slightly lowered, sprinting towards the agreed spot.

On the other side, Xia Qingrou had already met up with her second sister and sent Shen Mochen the coordinates of a certain restaurant.

"Little Rou Rou, long time no see, how come you're still so short!"

In a quiet and chic Western restaurant, Xia Qingrou's second sister, Xia Yusi, was teasingly touching Xia Qingrou's head with a mischievous smile.

"You're just taller than me because you're wearing high heels..."

Contrary to Xia Yusi's arrogant attitude, Xia Qingrou looked down, clearly resentful but without any sign of resistance, the picture of a pushover.

Xia Yusi had her fill of patting Xia Qingrou's head, then abruptly took off her unstylish glasses, "How can you wear such ugly glasses, your taste is awful, I'll help you choose a better pair later!"

"Mind your own business..." Xia Qingrou pursed her lips.

"Oh, three years not coming home, and you're growing wings now, daring to talk back?" Xia Yusi looked as if she'd discovered a new continent, smiling broadly.

Xia Qingrou remained silent, not talking back.

If the people from dorm 0819 saw the quiet and timid Xia Qingrou at this moment, they would be astounded. Was this the lively and cheerful Xia Qingrou?

"Hey, how come your boyfriend hasn't arrived yet, I came all the way to Yu Huai for him you know!"

"Aren't you here for your internship in your junior year of college?"

"If it was just for an internship, I could have done it near home, why on earth would I travel all this way!" Xia Yusi tapped on Xia Qingrou's forehead, "Heartless!"

Xia Qingrou's lips puckered, but she didn't dare to retort, looking like a mouse in the presence of a cat. She was boiling with anger inside. Before coming, she had been so determined; despite years of experience outside, why did she revert to her old self upon seeing Xia Yusi?

"I heard you had a boyfriend, scared the hell out of me!" Xia Yusi said smilingly as she pinched Xia Qingrou's cheek, "It's like a miracle, little sis!"

"Oh, what do you care..." Xia Qingrou's face was kneaded round and flat.

"I am your second sister, if I don't care about you, who will!" Xia Yusi puffed out her chest, "Tonight, I have to thoroughly examine this brother-in-law!"

"Hmph..." Xia Qingrou huffed and muttered under her breath, "You've never even had a boyfriend, what are you gonna inspect?"

Xia Yusi wasn't offended and spoke lightly, "The boys who want to pursue me could hold hands and circle around National University, appraising a little boyfriend is easy-peasy."

"Conceited... My boyfriend is better looking than all the guys you know!"

"Hehe, little sis, you have always been a dummy since childhood, I didn't expect you to be just as blind in love. Even if you're newly in love, don't actually believe 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder'."

Holding her phone, Xia Yusi casually opened a friend's social media space.

Xia Qingrou glanced at it and was actually looking at a top-tier idol who had burst onto the scene last year, boasting an extremely handsome face and a persona from an idol drama that had captivated millions of fangirls on social media. He wasn't just a hot topic in Yupi Country but even had a certain influence overseas.

"Isn't that Yu Gubo? How do you have him as a friend?"

"Humph, he came to our school to film and added me himself," Xia Siyu raised an eyebrow, "I rejected him twice before I let him add me."

With a cold laugh, Xia Yusi pulled up their chat history. Xia Qingrou curiously took a peek and found that this popular idol was actually messaging Xia Siyu every now and then, with a tone that had a hint of flirting.

Contrastingly, Xia Yusi was decidedly cool, never taking the initiative to contact him.

"He wants to pursue you?" Xia Qingrou said.

"Hmph, would he dare?" Xia Yusi scoffed, "If he dared to do it publicly, I might consider giving him a chance, but he doesn't dare. So, I just tease him for fun when I'm bored."

"You're really terrible..."

"What do you mean by 'terrible'?" Xia Yusi pinched Xia Qingrou's face, "That's unfair, you think he's only interested in me? I'm certain the things he's said to me, he's also said to other girls. It's just for fun when I'm bored!"

"So, all the guys you know are low-quality jerks, my boyfriend isn't."

"What I mean is that you shouldn't be blind in doing anything, got it?" Xia Yusi twisted Xia Qingrou's ear, "Can your boyfriend be more handsome than Yu Gubo? When you're in love, you have to see the person clearly, understand?"

Xia Qingrou winced in pain, "But my boyfriend really is more handsome than him!"

"You!" Xia Yusi felt like she was talking to a brick wall, and directly chided her, "You're driving me crazy, do you know that you can be cheated on by men?"

Xia Qingrou felt wronged inside, me being blind, my foot! We haven't even officially started dating, how can I be blind?

But then she thought, believe it or not, just wait until Shen Mochen arrives and see if you feel the pain on your face! Thinking of this, Xia Qingrou's mood improved slightly.

Xia Qingrou felt confident and whispered, "Anyway, my boyfriend is indeed much handsomer than him. I heard Yu Gubo even had plastic surgery, but even with surgery, he's not half as handsome as my boyfriend!"

Seeing Xia Qingrou stubbornly set in her ways, Xia Yusi couldn't help getting irritated, "Then I have to see for myself, where is your boyfriend, why hasn't he arrived yet?"

"He said just now that he would be arriving soon..." Xia Qingrou was saying, and upon seeing someone approaching the door, she exclaimed with delight, "Here he is!"

Xia Yusi turned to look, only to see a young man come in with a smile, dazzling like polished jade or intricate carvings. Bold and brilliant in spirit.

"Apologies for being late. You must be the second sister, right? Qingrou often mentions you," the young man approached Xia Yusi, nodding his head in apology.

Seeing his lively and spirited demeanor, Xia Yusi was impressed.
