Inside the Rhine Apartment.
The apartment's light luxury decoration is low-key and restrained everywhere, and the paintings hanging on the walls are all collection-level works of famous artists.
But there is not a single piece of furniture with a brand logo in the entire apartment, and the bright green plants are just ordinary varieties. The flowers are in full bloom, and the delicate Phalaenopsis orchids stretch out their slender stamens on the living room bar, and the light shadows lengthen the flavor of a work of art.
Qiao Nian went upstairs to take a shower and came down changed into clothes.
Bo Jingxing and Qin Si are both downstairs.
When she was going downstairs, her cell phone rang. Qiao Nian paused, took out her cell phone from her pocket, and looked over casually.
Jiang Li’s call.
She picked up the phone without hesitation, her voice filled with the mist of having just finished a shower: "Hello, second brother, what's up?"
Qin Si was originally talking to Bo Jingxing. When he heard the girl calling him "brother" naturally, he immediately looked towards Qiao Nian as if he had seen a ghost.
"Oh my god, what did I just hear Sister Qiao yelling? I am not deaf."
Gu San took a bottle of Evian water from the refrigerator and placed it in front of him, expressionless: "Mr. Qin, there is nothing wrong with your ears. I also heard Miss Qiao calling me brother. It should be Mr. Jiang calling."
Qin Si moved his lips and was about to say, "Of course I know it was Jiang Li who called."
He looked at Qiao Nian again, his expression revealing inquiry and surprise - he mainly wanted to know when did Qiao sister and Jiang Li have such a good relationship? What method did Jiang Li use to make Qiao Nian willingly call him brother.
You know, Qiao Nian was also very nice and respectful to Jiang Li before, but that was all. It was not like now, when her tone was so intimate when she talked to Jiang Li on the phone.
He glanced at Gu San.
Gu San immediately shrugged at him, looking innocent: "Mr. Qin, don't look at me, I don't know anything. If you want to know, you can ask Mr. Wang."
The man sitting next to him on the sofa turned his gentle and elegant face to the side when he heard this. His deep eyes seemed to hide a bottomless pool of water. He said in a low and seductive voice: "Don't ask me, I don't know either. If you want to know, just ask Qiao Nian directly."
Qin Si immediately refused: "I won't ask Sister Qiao. I only ask when I'm sick. I'm not a gossipy woman."
Gu San's mouth twitched, and seeing his expression immediately become complicated, he really wanted to join in: Mr. Qin, actually, if you look in the mirror, you can be!
Fortunately, Qin Si couldn't hear his thoughts, nor did he notice Gu San's facial expression suddenly became complicated.
Qin Si's attention is all on the girls.
The girl came down the stairs, walked to where they were sitting, picked up a bottle of Evian water, unscrewed the lid and drank it.
After taking a sip, she put the water to her lips again, more relaxed and unrestrained than the grown men. She seemed to glance at them out of the corner of her eyes. Qin Si immediately sat up straight. His upright sitting posture was like a student who was caught truant by the teacher when he was in school when he was a child.
He sat up straight abruptly, causing Bo Jingxing beside him to frown. He raised his hand, pushed the frame of his glasses on his nose and asked him, "Qin Si, what are you doing? You're so startled."
"… "
Qin Si then realized that he seemed to have overreacted. He felt a little embarrassed and guilty. He touched the earring on his earlobe and said perfunctorily, "Leg cramp."
Bo Jingxing: "You are sitting here fine, how can you have a leg cramp???"
