Qiao Qing, "..."
After some time, she comforted him, "That girl's just a fan."
"Not her." Jun Yexuan rubbed her nose, "I'm jealous over a man."
Qiao Qing was surprised then assured him again, "I don't like Gong Yi and I won't go find him."
Her words did not comfort Jun Yexuan at all. Instead, this jealous man's heart dropped.
He lifted her chin and emotions soared out of him, "Who is Leng Yan to you? You seem to be protecting him."
Qiao Qing froze for a second and said, "A friend."
Jun Yexuan's pretty eyes squinted, "Just a friend?"
"What else could it be?" Qiao Qing's gaze turned cold, "Jun Yexuan, I'm not going to lie to you about this stuff. If I am involved with any other men, you would not have gotten the chance to even sit close to me."
Jun Yexuan felt anxious. He lifted her up, put her on his legs, hugged her tightly, and rested his chin on her shoulder, "I'm wrong."
Qiao Qing, "..."
She exhaled deeply. Then, rubbed his head again, "For research, I went to country L once. He helped me a lot. Not only is he my friend, but he's also one of my saviors."
"I am thankful towards him, but that is all. Stop wasting your energy thinking about useless stuff every day. Since I've chosen to be with you, I won't pay attention to others. Do you not trust me?"
"I do!" Jun Yexuan's jealousy dissipated right away. The corner of his lips lifted, "I promise you that there won't be a next time."
Qiao Qing was silent for a while, "Was it bad to leave Sang Wu with Mu Jinghang?"
Jun Yexuan, "What's wrong with that? It's rare for that boy to learn. We need to help him."
"Plus, your friend already foresees their eventual marriage. They are going to get together sooner or later."
"Jinghang is stupid and makes a lot of mistakes. However, he seems to be an alright match for your friend. Plus, you used to suspect that there's something between him and me. Now you don't need to worry."
Qiao Qing, "..."
When the pair got home, they saw Qi Yunyan attempt to walk with the help of Qiu Yin.
When Qi Yunyan heard the noise and saw Qiao Qing enter, his eyes brightened.
He tried to go up to her and left Qiu Yin's side. In the end, he fell forward.
Qiao Qing was startled and dashed to Qi Yunyan and caught him mid-fall, "Why are you being so uncareful?"
Qi Yunyan happily gave Qiao Qing a hug, "Qingqing, are you worried about me?"
Jun Yexuan's face turned dark, "Your legs are bad and half of your body is leaning against her!"
Qi Yunyan glared at Jun Yexuan.
Then, he let go of Qiao Qing unwillingly and held onto Qiu Yin's shoulder instead.
He asked, "Qingqing, aren't you in school? Why did you come back so early?"
Qiao Qing peeked at her watch and didn't mention the party, "I only had two classes." That was the truth.
Qi Yunyan didn't question her. Instead, he looked at his legs and asked with anticipation, "I have been exercising and practicing walking as you had asked. When will I be able to walk like a normal person?"
Qiao Qing bent down and rolled up his pants. She observed his legs and said, "At the earliest, one month. At the latest, 100 days."
Qi Yunyan grinned from ear to ear, "Once I'm healed, I won't ever leave your side."
Jun Yexuan, "..."
What if he wanted to break that man's legs?
After lunch, Qiao Qing prepared to go read in the library when she received a text.
