“Huh?” When the rest heard Zhao Youlin’s words, they reflexively turned their heads around and looked in Zhao Youlin’s direction, only to see Nie Yunfan and An Qi were behaving strangely not far away from them.

“Urm…” Nie Yunfan fixed his gaze at the person in front of him. He used to have a sharp tongue, but was now stuck and could not even speak clearly.

Ever since An Qi showed up in the church with An Yue, Nie Yunfan had been paying attention to her.

However, he racked his brain and still could not come up with a reason to talk to her. As a result, out of desperation, he wandered around with An Qi like a pervert.

When An Qi acted as An Yue’s bridesmaid, Nie Yunfan watched her from the side. When the bouquet landed in An Qi’s hand, Nie Yunfan watched her from the side. When An Qi received the guests on An Yue’s behalf, Nie Yunfan also watched her from the side!

An Qi eventually sat down and rested. A certain rich guy who intended to ride on the Zhao and Mu families’ coattails came to her and flirted with her. Finally, Nie Yunfan could no longer hold himself back. He appeared from the side all of a sudden and grasped the person’s outstretched hand toward An Qi’s face.

In fact, An Qi was bored at the banquet. This was her first time attending the upper-class society banquet. She did not feel at ease in such a setting.

However, as one of the hosts at the banquet, she could not leave the banquet without any good reasons. Instead, she had to help to receive the guests and forced herself to interact with the fakers.

Duan Yarong might have realized her struggle to adjust to this social life. She was so considerate that she took her place and let her rest by the side.

An Qi heaved a sigh of relief. She thanked Duan Yarong before fleeing to hide in a corner.

Just when she thought she could finally have a peace of mind. A stranger approached her and sat down in front of her. He then took the initiative to talk to her.

An Qi was visibly embarrassed. Although she was dissatisfied with this man, she was aware that most of the guests today belonged to the social elite. Therefore, it was best not to make any noise. She gave a dry smile and a perfunctory response.

However, the man was not aware of her repulsion. Instead, he mistook her patience for a sign of affection for him. As a result, he grew increasingly outrageous and began to get handsy!

When the person stretched out his hand at her, An Qi was not able to react in time. By the time she snapped out of her trance, Nie Yunfan, who had appeared out of nowhere, had already clutched the man’s hand.

“What do you want?” Nie Yunfan stared at the man in front of An Qi coolly. There was an obvious hint of resentment in his words.

The man had never thought that Nie Yunfan would show up all of a sudden. Besides, Nie Yunfan was someone whom he could not afford to mess with.

The man’s entire body unwittingly trembled under Nie Yunfan’s stare. He said awkwardly, “Young Master Nie, what are you…”

“I’m asking you, what do you want to do just now?” Nie Yunfan interrupted him impatiently. He repeated his question.

The man seemed to understand something, and he stammered, “N-Nothing…”

Nie Yunfan gave a cold sneer. He stared at the man coolly before flinging his hand away.

The moment the man regained his liberty, he quickly smiled dryly and said, “I remember that my friends are still waiting for me over there. Please excuse me.”

After finished speaking, the man did not wait for Nie Yunfan and An Qi’s response. He turned around and fled, disappearing out of their sights.

Only then did An Qi subconsciously know that Nie Yunfan had helped her. She then recalled their prior unpleasant encounters and said, “Thank you… for assisting me in getting out of the difficult situation.”

Nie Yunfan, on the other hand, was still angry with that man. However, when he heard An Qi’s words, his anger subsided. He turned his head around and looked at An Qi gleefully. It took him some time before he finally regained his voice. He grinned. “Don’t mention it. This is something I should be doing.”

“Something you should be doing, huh?” An Qi was puzzled and looked at him when she heard Nie Yunfan’s words.

Finally, she interpreted Nie Yunfan’s words as implying that she, as An Yue’s older sister who was Han Yichen’s wife, and he, as Han Yichen’s close friend, should be saving her from this situation.

An Qi had completely misunderstood Nie Yunfan’s words. She smiled in return and did not say anything. Nie Yunfan sat in the man’s place and smiled dumbly at An Qi.

An Qi fell speechless.

This sight greeted Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group when they turned their heads around. The man and the woman were sitting side by side at the same table and the atmosphere was absolutely… bizarre.

“Urm…” It took Nie Yunfan some time before he blurted out, “How’s your… injury?”

An Qi had returned home as soon as she was discharged from the hospital. Nie Yunfan, on the other hand, had someone to investigate An Qi’s background and at the same time, began to feel uneasy after realizing that he had developed some strange feelings for her. Therefore, he found it awkward to pay a visit to her. Today was their first encounter ever since then.

An Qi was stunned. She then recalled that this person was the one who had sent her to the hospital when she was wounded.

However, she was only concerned with An Yue’s safety that day and had her ugly past revealed by Xie Yuqing. As a result, she had not thanked her savior and had even spoken harshly against him.

Just then, An Qi felt embarrassed. She looked down as she said, “I’m much better now. Thank you for your help on that day. If it hadn’t been for you, Yue Yue and I would have been in danger.”

“The situation was extremely dangerous at that time. How could I, as a man, leave you all alone? All these are nothing.”

Upon hearing his words, An Qi looked up and cast a glance at Nie Yunfan. She had the impression that something was wrong with this person today. However, she could not exactly identify what went wrong.

“Also… That day I was in a bad mood. I hope you don’t mind if my tone comes across unfriendly.”

“It’s nothing. I was partly at fault too. I also hope you won’t mind.”

“Hehe…”

“Hehe…”

An Qi fell speechless.

Nie Yunfan was also speechless.

They chatted awkwardly, so much so that one could not bear to listen to their conversation.

Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group could not hear their conversations because of the long distance and that the banquet was very crowded.

Even though they could not hear them, Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group could tell from their facial expressions and the strange atmosphere that… There was something fishy going on between them!

“What is wrong with… Nie Yunfan?” Zhao Youlin placed the food on her plate when she noticed Nie Yunfan’s speechless look. She raised one of her eyebrows, turned her head around, and looked at his older brother, who was a good friend of Nie Yunfan.

Han Yichen cast a fleeting glance at the sight not far away from him before he quietly moved his attention away. He then replied to Zhao Youlin coolly, “Well, maybe he goes back to his old habit.”

“Old habit?” Zhao Youlin furrowed her eyebrows even more.. Nie Yunfan’s most prominent old habit was none other than… flirty, right?! Could he be…
