"I really don't know what to say about you! " Qin Yueshu was furious. She didn't know if Shen Manting trusted Xue Chenkong too much or if Shen Manting was too naive.
Seeing that she was so angry, Shen Manting had no choice but to say, "I'll go out and take a look. "
As soon as Shen Manting walked out to the corridor, she saw Xue Chenkong and Qi Jingwan standing together and talking about something. "Chenkong? " She was not suspecting that Xue Chenkong had some kind of unspeakable relationship with Qi Jingwan behind her back. She just found it strange. What could they have to talk about?
When Shen Manting spoke, Xue Chenkong's brows twitched. He turned around and glared at Qi Jingwan coldly. "Watch your mouth. If she finds out, I'll kill you immediately! "
Qi Jingwan's face was pale. She turned around and ran away, but when she passed Shen Manting, her eyes became meaningful.
"Why are you looking at me like that? " Shen Manting asked in confusion.
Cough!
Xue Chenkong coughed in warning.
Qi Jingwan subconsciously shivered. She turned to Shen Manting and said, "I have something to do, so I'll leave first. "
Shen Manting furrowed her brows as she watched Qi Jingwan's back, which was clearly in a hurry to escape. She looked at Xue Chenkong in confusion. "What's going on? "
"Ah Ting, are you jealous? " Xue Chenkong's eyes lit up.
"Not at all, " Shen Manting retorted subconsciously. She would never be jealous of Xue Chenkong in her life. She couldn't wait for him to fall in love with another woman.
"Really? " As Xue Chenkong spoke, he suddenly reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist. His eyes were a little tipsy, but they were also filled with the flames of desire, as if he wanted to melt her.
"Don't come so close. You smell of alcohol. " Shen Manting pushed him away, her face red. However, when Xue Chenkong had approached her, she had noticed that there was not only the smell of alcohol but also a hint of perfume that did not belong to Xue Chenkong. Her expression froze, and she pulled Xue Chenkong back by his tie. She sniffed him carefully, and the smell became even clearer. Raising her head, she questioned him, "Why do you have the smell of a woman's perfume on you? "
Moreover, the perfume smell was a little familiar. When Qi Jingwan had left just now, she had smelt her perfume, and it wasn't hers. Then, whose was it?
The b*stard actually dared to hook up with other women behind her back? At the thought of that, Shen Manting had an increasingly cold expression on. However, she didn't notice that she was showing that she minded it.
Xue Chenkong's heart skipped a beat, and a hint of panic flashed across his eyes. However, he quickly regained his composure and said with a calm expression, "Really? Ah Ting, you're jealous. You just didn't admit it just now. " He then put on a mischievous smile.
"I said I'm not! " Shen Manting was a little angry from embarrassment.
"Don't worry, I won't laugh at you. I like the way you care about me, " Xue Chenkong boasted shamelessly.
Shen Manting looked at him and felt that he was avoiding the question. She recalled Qin Yueshu's words and began to doubt herself. Could it be that all men in the world were the same and could not resist temptation? However, she could not help but recall the situation in her dream. It should not have happened. Although Xue Chenkong was a b*stard, he did not mess around with others. Could it be that she was overthinking it?
Shen Manting tugged at his tie and sized him up with her beautiful eyes.
Xue Chenkong carefully pulled the tie back and straightened it. He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. "Let's go in quickly. Don't let your colleagues in your department wait too long. " As he spoke, he pulled Shen Manting back forcefully.
Although Shen Manting had her doubts, she still felt that she was overthinking things. The two of them returned to the private room.
As soon as Shen Manting sat down, Qin Yueshu tugged at her sleeve and gloated in her ear, "Did you see what happened outside just now? That Qi Jingwan's expression was so ugly, it was if she just escaped from death. How satisfying! "
Shen Manting's expression froze, and she couldn't help but look at the man beside her. She had a feeling that Qi Jingwan's expression had changed because Xue Chenkong had said something to her. So what did they talk about?
Just as Shen Manting was lost in her thoughts, Qin Yueshu said, "Eh? Why hasn't Ding Rou come back after she went out? "
Shen Manting suddenly recalled that Ding Rou had disappeared! She was the one treating that night, so it wouldn't be good if something happened to her. "I'll go outside to take a look. "
Just as Shen Manting was about to stand up, the waiter came in and said respectfully, "Ms. Shen, a lady called Ding Rou said that she was drunk and called a taxi to go back. "
"She went home? " Shen Manting asked in surprise.
