The private dining room fell into a brief silence.
Shangguan Qiuya’s gaze flickered as she leaned forward slightly. “Xiaojing, should I take this to an that you’re with Tang Song just for fun, for the excitent? That you don’t actually have deep feelings for him?”
Xiaojing’s expression froze for a mont before she shook her head. “Sister Shangguan, that’s not it.
“At first, I just wanted to have a romantic relationship with him. I wasn’t sure if we’d last, and yes, it was mostly for fun.
“But over ti, as we spent more ti together and talked more, our feelings gradually deepened. That process was really interesting. Now, I really, really like him.”
Shangguan Qiuya’s brows furrowed slightly as she locked eyes with her. “Then why do you allow him to have other won around?”
From what she knew, Tian Jing had no idea about Tang Song’s true circumstances.
Given that, it was hard to understand how she could be so understanding and accepting.
Xiaojing pondered for a mont before flashing a sly smile. “A guy as outstanding as him is bound to attract won. I’m still young, and this is my first love—I don’t want to interfere too much in his life and relationships. As long as he likes , that’s enough.”
“And what about the future?”
Xiaojing blinked playfully. “One day, Brother Tang Song will realize that marrying a gentle and adorable wife like is the best choice he could ever make.”
Shangguan Qiuya’s lips parted slightly before she instantly understood.
Xiaojing was Tian Chengye’s only daughter, set to inherit a massive fortune. Not only was she beautiful, fair-skinned, and sweet-natured, but she also didn’t interfere in Tang Song’s relationships—she allowed him the freedom to be with other won.
From a practical standpoint, if Tang Song ever wanted to settle down, she would be the most logical choice.
“Xiaojing, you’re very smart.” Shangguan Qiuya sighed, her gaze deepening.
“Hehe, not really. I just want to stay with him.” Xiaojing covered her mouth and giggled, continuing to eat.
Strictly speaking, she had known Tang Song for a long ti.
She was a sharp person—she had figured out a lot but simply chose not to say anything.
At first, she hadn’t paid much attention to that quiet coworker, only vaguely rembering that he was a bit chubby.
Every Friday afternoon, she would see him busy running around, taking care of the office afternoon tea deliveries. Back then, she only found it amusing.
It wasn’t until he lost weight and revealed his hands that looked like they ca straight out of a manga that she finally noticed him.
And then, she witnessed his transformation firsthand.
Whether it was his appearance or deanor, he constantly surprised her, making her heart race.
He was like a manga protagonist hiding a deep secret.
That was what fascinated her the most.
Her feelings for Tang Song—perhaps there was so impulse, but it was definitely not blind obsession.
After finishing lunch, they stepped out of the private room and into the quiet elevator lobby.
Looking at the mischievous Xiaojing beside her, Shangguan Qiuya’s lips curved slightly before she suddenly asked in a low voice,
“Xiaojing, what if Tang Song ets soone even better, more beautiful, and richer than you? What if she’s just as understanding as you are—what would you do then?”
Xiaojing froze, her soft pink lips parting slightly, unable to respond right away.
Ding—
The elevator doors slid open.
“Let’s go.” Shangguan Qiuya patted her shoulder and stepped inside.
Xiaojing licked her lips and quickly followed.
The elevator ascended slowly and finally stopped on the 30th floor.
“Byebye, Sister Shangguan.”
“Byebye.”
As she stepped out, Xiaojing instinctively glanced back at Shangguan Qiuya’s figure, subconsciously making a silent comparison.
Other qualities aside—
In terms of looks, she was definitely superior.
Plus, she was younger!
(￣へ￣) Hmph!
Where did she get the confidence to suggest soone might be prettier than ?
But… if Shangguan Qiuya really had sothing going on with Tang Song, then she was definitely a big threat.
Returning to her desk, Xiaojing’s eyes sparkled.
She opened Xu Qing’s WeChat and typed a ssage:
“Qingqing-sama, wuaaaahhh! I just discovered a shocking secret about my boyfriend! It’s like I suddenly triggered a hidden quest, and now my entire brain is in chaos!”
Buzz—buzz—
This ti, the reply ca instantly.
【Qingqing: “What happened?! What kind of crazy plot twist is this?! Tell everything!”】
Xiaojing: “Σ(°△°|||) Waaahhh! I just realized that behind my boyfriend lurks a BIG BOSS lover! Her background is unfathomable, and she has a terrifying level of control over him! She holds imnse influence in Smile Holdings, and in the future, she might try to break us apart! So scary!!”
【Qingqing: “NANI?! Who is she?!”】
Xiaojing: “(shivering~) I’m still investigating! I could be exposed at any mont! All I can say is—her power is terrifyingly deep!”
【Qingqing: “You have to find out the truth! I’ll support you no matter what!”】
Xiaojing covered her mouth and giggled, then typed:
“Un! Thank you for the encouragent, Qingqing-sama! This unknown feeling is like facing a boss from another dinsion—but I believe we’ll erge victorious!”
Fanfu Suzi dia.
Xu Qing stared at the chat ssages on her monitor, her face dead serious, her legs shaking uncontrollably.
Even a rich beauty like Xiaojing was calling this woman a "Big Boss."
What kind of person was she?!
Would she also try to steal Tang Song from ?!
