Chapter 28: Confrontation

“Since this trouble was caused by her, naturally, we have to bring her over.”

In fact, after hearing Gold Moon’s explanation last night, Qi Bei already knew that the problem must lie with Su Chenxi.

Although his cousin was a troublemaker, he wouldn’t target a woman for no reason.

And that Su Chenxi, since their reunion at the bar, had always appeared between him and Gold Moon. Gold Moon also seemed to have some strange attitude toward Su Chenxi that she couldn’t explain.

With this in mind, it was clear that Su Chenxi needed to be brought over. There would be no doubt once they met face-to-face.

So, after planning with his cousin, Qi Bei had also called Secretary Chen to arrange for Su Chenxi to be brought over today.

Meanwhile, Su Chenxi, dressed in an elegant outfit, had been waiting in another private room for a while. Finally, the server arrived and informed her that she was to be taken to the room where Qi Bei was.

When she received Secretary Chen’s call, Su Chenxi was incredibly excited. Qi Bei had actually invited her out!

She thought to herself that even if Qi Bei was living with Gold Moon, what did it matter? They had broken up, and now Qi Bei had realized that she was the woman who truly suited him, so he had called her out.

This was her first date with Qi Bei, and she had to take it seriously.

She had gone out earlier in the afternoon for a spa treatment, followed by a full-body makeover, preparing herself for this important meeting.

“Mr. Qi is inside, please go ahead.”

The server gestured toward the private room door with a slight bow.

Su Chenxi nodded, straightened her dress, and pushed the door open.

“Chenxi, what are you doing here? You look great today!”

As soon as Qi Tian saw Su Chenxi Walk in, he eagerly rushed over to greet her.

Su Chenxi was already a natural beauty, and after dressing up, she was even more dazzling. Qi Tian couldn’t help but look at her with admiration.

Su Chenxi: “Oh, it’s you, Qi Tian. What are you doing here?”

Qi Tian: “You came just in time. Now we can expose that woman’s true colors and make sure my brother isn’t fooled by her.”

Reminded by Su Chenxi’s words, Qi Tian quickly stopped praising her and dragged her toward Gold Moon, eager to confront her.

That woman?

Su Chenxi had an uneasy feeling. When she first entered, Qi Tian had blocked her view, so she hadn’t noticed Gold Moon and Qi Bei were there.

Now that Qi Tian had pulled her over to Gold Moon, she realized Qi Bei had invited her out because of Gold Moon.

Once she understood this, Su Chenxi felt a mix of anger and bitterness. She knew Gold Moon must be laughing at her in her heart after seeing her dressed up like this.

“Bro, Chenxi is here! If you don’t believe me, you can ask her whether this woman has ever bullied her at school!” Qi Tian said loudly.

Gold Moon was somewhat speechless. She didn’t know how Qi Tian, the so-called older brother, had ended up in charge, with such a low level of intelligence…

It was clear to Gold Moon that Su Chenxi, with her usual innocent, sweet appearance, would never expose her true self in front of so many people. Doing so would completely contradict her image.

Not to mention, Qi Bei was right there!

Sigh, if Qi Tian hadn’t interfered, Gold Moon would have genuinely wanted to settle things with Su Chenxi herself. But now, Qi Tian had ruined that plan.

The female protagonist doesn’t believe her. If she admits it, wouldn’t Qi Tian be watching her all the time?

Besides, Su Chenxi has also entered the room now, so she would definitely have to speak up for herself. After thinking it over, she realized her task was so difficult.

“Yes, Su Chenxi, how have I bullied you at school?”

“Yueyue, why are you saying that? You haven’t bullied me. You just…”

See? Jin Yue was right; Su Chenxi would definitely deny it and then try to get her point across in another way.

However, this wasn’t going smoothly. Jin Yue noticed Qi Tian, who was excitedly interrupting Su Chenxi when she was denying it.

“Chenxi, don’t be afraid, I’m here. Why are you scared? Just say what you said back then!”

Qi Tian thought that it was Jin Yue making Su Chenxi deny it out of fear, so he glared fiercely at Jin Yue.

Then, he stood in front of Su Chenxi, not noticing that when Su Chenxi’s words were interrupted, her hands clenched tightly at her sides.

How come Qi Tian looked like a fool sent by Jin Yue to torment her? Su Chenxi thought angrily.

Not only did he fail to help, but he dragged her into this. It was so infuriating.

No matter how angry she was inside, she always maintained a gentle appearance.

She innocently said, “Qi Tian, when did I say anything to you? Are you mistaken? Yueyue is just a girl. Although she can be a little spoiled, she has never hit me. Why are you trying to make things difficult for her? And pretending it’s in my name?”

Then, her tone dropped a little, “I’ve always wanted to be friends with Yueyue, even though she doesn’t pay much attention to me. But our relationship isn’t bad. Why are you using my name to make things harder for her? Now, she probably doesn’t want to be friends with me anymore.”

Qi Tian was indeed a little confused. Didn’t Chenxi say anything?

After thinking about it, he realized that she had never actually said anything. It was just her friend who kept talking.

When he asked her, she denied it, saying it was just a joke. Jin Yue’s tone sounded off, and she stuttered, but since he knew her character, he assumed it was true.

So, in the end, it was him who made a fool of himself?

Qi Tian thought to himself, “I’m the boss here, I won’t admit this was a mistake.”

So, even though his confidence faltered, he still stubbornly said, “That doesn’t mean she’s a good person. Chenxi, you’re too naive. Don’t be friends with her, or you might get led astray.”

He paused, then turned to Jin Yue, saying, “Anyway, Chenxi has me protecting her. You better be careful and treat her kindly!”

“Qi Tian, don’t say things like that. I have nothing to do with you!”

Su Chenxi almost cried out in frustration. This wasn’t an act. How could Qi Tian say such things in front of Bei Ge? What if Bei Ge misunderstood?

“Qi Tian, Miss Su, I invited both of you here today to make it clear that Jin Yue is my girlfriend. No matter what your relationship is or what happened in the past, or what Jin Yue has done, you are not allowed to interfere with her. Understand?”

Although Jin Yue insisted on handling it herself, Qi Bei wasn’t going to let this go.

He specifically invited both of them to warn them.

Especially Qi Tian. This guy, relying on his uncle and aunt’s indulgence, wasn’t afraid of anything.

When Qi Bei spoke, although his voice wasn’t loud, every word was clear, with a deep meaning behind them, as if carrying a subtle threat.

The two of them could feel the implication in his words. They could only watch as Qi Bei turned around, his expression softening as he affectionately embraced Jin Yue and left the private room.
