Chapter 2548

Wei Wucai spent most of his time on Mount Lan Compound.

Yan Zhiqing, on filming.

When did they have the chance to meet and fall in love?

Unless it was when Yan Zhiqing was attending events and filming at T City?

Wei Wucai felt it wasn’t good to be denying it first as a guy.

He didn’t have a low EQ.

Yan Zhiqing quickly waved her hands in denial. “It’s not like that! It’s just that someone…”

Yan Zhiqing turned to Wei Wucai. “I seem to recall you addressed her as Miss Luo, right?”

Wei Wucai nodded.

Yan Zhiqing then continued, “It’s only that that Miss Luo was looking down on Wei Wucai! She said he was an unaccomplished and unambitious bum, even questioning his ability to pay for the meal! Coincidentally, she assumed I was Wei Wucai’s girlfriend, and since the misunderstanding’s already there, I had to put on an act for her! She can choke on her own spit for looking down on others!”

The corners of Wei Wucai’s lips quirked up.

He had felt he was being protected by this lass back at Sheng Yue just now.

And it turned out to be true.

He was physically and mentally sharp, never requiring a lady’s protection before.

This was the first time, and it’s rather interesting.

He didn’t dislike it, nor did he feel that Yan Zhiqing was a busybody or had fallen prey to his machismo.

Instead, Wei Wucai turned to gaze at Yan Zhiqing’s side profile.

Who knew this proud and wilful-looking girl had a cute personality?

“Wait.” Yan Beicheng was shocked. “Why did you stand up for him when he was being looked down on by that Miss Luo? He’s a grown man who can handle himself, he doesn’t need you to do it for him!”

Yan Zhiqing: “…”

Her brother made sense, and she’d only just realized it.

Yan Zhiqing threw Wei Wucai a look before saying, “I was curious too. He’s so good with words usually and makes others speechless, never showing mercy no matter who they are. Why did he put up with Miss Luo for so long?”

Yan Zhiqing pursed her lips, muttering, “Hope I didn’t mess things up with my goodwill?”

Yan Zhiqing turned towards Wei Wucai. “Unless you like that Miss Luo? If you like her, then I’m sorry for messing things up just now, I didn’t know you…”

Wei Wucai frowned. What weird scenarios was she cooking up in her mind?

“Why do you think I like her? I don’t like her at all,” Wei Wucai said blandly. “I didn’t say a thing before because you were being bullied. I was focused on protecting you, so I couldn’t be bothered to answer her. And I’d already rebuked her until she’s speechless back at the private room.”

Yan Zhiqing never expect Wei Wucai’s lack of response was due to his defending her.

Yan Zhiqing couldn’t help but smile. “Then… thank you. I didn’t know you were so righteous.”

Yan Beicheng: “…”

Was it appropriate for them to be eyeing each other like this in front of him?

He looked at Yan Zhiqing questioningly. Based on her attitude, she seemed to like Wei Wucai?

Moreover, Wei Wucai even took the extra step to explain to Yan Zhiqing.

He wasn’t someone patient enough to explain his actions to others.

These two…

Though Yan Beicheng had his doubts, he laid them aside temporarily. There were more important issues at hand.

He would ask Yan Zhiqing what was going on after he had finished dealing with Trubo’s matters.
