The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 346 Lin Xiao is the MVP!

Time goes back a little, to a little earlier, at Jian Xi's home in Pudong.

Lin Xiao, wearing a Jian Xi shirt, was sitting on a yoga mat in the living room doing yoga. When she bent her head to stretch, the bun on the back of her head became a little loose. A few strands of her long hair hung down and were soaked with a few beads of sweat on her forehead. After taking a few breaths, she continued to do the last two sets of movements.

"Do you have to work so hard? It's okay to do yoga in the afternoon, but why do you do it for so long?" Jian Xi from the kitchen brought out a bowl of pork rib soup and put it on the table, then said to Lin Xiao who was lying on the ground with a smile.

Lin Xiao did not change his movements. He glanced at him and said, "This is called perseverance. I don't want to lose my figure after working for too long."

"That makes sense. Working does make people look older." Jian Xi nodded in agreement, but soon asked, "But what does this have to do with you? Don't you feel younger and in better shape?"

The dog man had a smile on his face and his eyes kept scanning certain parts of the other person's body.

It's no wonder that his clothes looked very loose on Lin Xiao, but the other party was gifted, so even though his clothes were loose, some parts still looked a little tight.

Especially looking at it from this perspective, the temptation is simply overwhelming.

Of course Lin Xiao noticed the gaze of the dog man, but he did not avoid it. His rosy face was flushed, not sure if it was because he was a little shy or because of the blood surging during stretching.

She rolled her eyes at Jian Xi and snorted, "She needs exercise to stay active. When some of them are old and flabby, I'll see how they can still pretend to be young in front of me!"

"..."

Although he knew that the other party was stimulated by Little Green Tea, Jian Xi couldn't help laughing when he heard her say that: "Is it really that serious? If you have this energy, you might as well exercise with me during the nap just now."

"..."

Lin Xiao, who was trying his best to maintain the movement, instantly let out a sigh of relief, and his raised leg hit the yoga mat heavily.

"You're so annoying, why are you disturbing me!" Lin Xiao glared at the bad man angrily.

"Ok ok, I won't bother you anymore, just continue." Jian Xi smiled and turned to go to the kitchen again, but before going in, he turned around and reminded, "Take a shower early after you're done, and we'll have dinner later."

"understood."

On weekends, young couples always postpone their meals, which is truly an act of force majeure.

But when Lin Xiao came out of the shower, he was a little surprised to see the full table of dishes, but he still had some appetite: "If Lin Quan is coming back, you can cook a table of dishes for her, and order takeout when I am here."

Jian Xi, who was wearing an apron, put down the braised pork in her hand, looked at Lin Xiao, whose hair was half dry, and said, "You said it as if you don't want to eat it."

"Eat! Of course I have to eat since I'm starving!" Lin Xiao frowned. She had consumed too much energy today and she was almost starving to death.

After taking a piece of pork ribs with her bare hands and putting it into her mouth, she said vaguely, "When will Lin Quan arrive?"

"It will be here soon. I just sent a message downstairs." Jian Xi took the dishes and chopsticks and said.

Lin Xiao nodded. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the dishes and chopsticks that had been set out and asked in confusion, "Why four bowls? Too many."

"Not many. Some people are coming today."

"There's someone else?" Lin Xiao was a little surprised. Usually there were only three people at home. "Who is it?"

Jian Xi took off her apron and said with a smile: "Guess?"

Lin Xiao bit the ribs in his mouth, frowned and thought for a while, then asked tentatively: "Could it be... Nan Xiang?"

"you guess?"

"..."

Lin Xiao put down the bone, walked around to Jian Xi, bent over and stared at the other person's eyes: "Is it Nan Xiang? Look straight at me!"

Hearing this, the dog man looked into her eyes seriously and said, "Guess."

"you……"

Lin Xiao gritted her teeth. She already had a premonition. Although Nan Xiang had come to her house before, it was only because she came with her to stay for a night because of something else. She had never come to her house officially.

The fact that my best friend seduced my man has always been a knot in my stomach. I usually restrain myself when I see her outside, but when we are alone together in private...

In 2014, I fought a free-fighting match for the first time in a two-bedroom apartment in Puxi, East Asia’s Magic City. I fought with a green tea mistress until my equipment was all over the floor. Then, for several days in a row, the use of the bedroom, bathroom, and living room was constantly transferred...

Lin Xiao’s creed is that a woman should be able to handle both housework and housework, and be able to fight off mistresses and beat up hooligans!

Yoga is just a way to exercise body coordination. Ever since Nan Xiang pressed her down on the sofa and she couldn't get up last time, she has started to let Jian Xi practice wrestling with her on the bed recently.

Well... she really fell down, and she used the excuse that she occasionally went to and from get off work alone and needed to protect herself. Although Jian Xi could see what she was planning, she didn't expose it directly.

So now that she suspected that her best friend and love rival was coming to visit, Lin Xiao suddenly felt that it was time for her to wash away her shame.

"Ding dong!"

The doorbell rang, and when Jian Xi was about to get up, Lin Xiao said first: "I'll go open the door!"

……

ten minutes later.

"Lin Xiao, you may be eating, but is there something wrong with your eyes?" Lin Quan, who was picking up food, said unhappily.

"..."

Lin Xiao, who was poking at the vegetables in the bowl, shifted his gaze from Nan Xiang, who was eating, to Little Green Tea and snorted, "Eat your meal, this won't stop you from talking!"

"What do you care about me?" Little Green Tea retorted unyieldingly. Anyway, the two of them always quarreled with each other. Then she chuckled and said, "Nan Xiang is my guest today. Of course, I can't let you turn your face away."

"You..." Lin Xiao's expression changed. He looked at Nan Xiang again, and finally looked at Jian Xi with a puzzled look.

"Don't look at me. It was really Ah Quan who invited you. I found out when I was cooking. Otherwise, why would I cook a table full of dishes?"

Jian Xi said without changing his expression, today's incident was really a temporary one.

"why?"

Lin Xiao asked. She also wanted to ask Lin Quan, "Did you, the guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, also betrayed us?"

Lin Quan poured himself a glass of wine and said softly, "It's very simple. She helped me a lot when I was preparing my portfolio for the second interview."

"Retest?" Lin Xiao was stunned. "Aren't you going to have a retest at the end of this month?"

"Yes." Lin Quan said happily after taking a sip of wine, "But I am very confident now. Just before I came from school, I thought of asking Nan Xiang to come over for dinner."

Jian Xi listened to what Xiao Lu Cha said, looked at her calmly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that she is indeed a considerate and good sister.

But he pretended to be confused and asked, "Didn't you ask me to help you prepare your portfolio? Why did you go to Nan Xiang?"

Of course, a portfolio is required for the postgraduate entrance examination for the director of Little Green Tea, and whether it is a short film script or finding actors, there are people in his own company who can help.

Although Hongye Media is currently focusing on the internet celebrity track and is not entirely an entertainment company, it does not mean that there are no people with related majors such as directors, actors and actresses in the company.

The Star Show section is only a part, and even just a part used to make quick money. When he was building the framework, he spent a lot of effort to recruit bloggers who follow the plot track. Not only jokes, but also teams including online short dramas and streaming documentaries.

If we really want to talk about the value, the IP value of the latter ones is the biggest. So when Xiaoluocha was preparing his portfolio, he asked someone in the company to help him with some special treatment, but Xiaoluocha never mentioned it later. I thought he didn't need his help anymore?
Hearing this, Lin Quan poured another glass of wine for Nan Xiang, then said with a smile: "I mentioned this matter when we met last time, and Senior Nan Xiang said that she could ask a colleague to help me polish the script, and I agreed. She even asked a colleague to play a cameo role for me as an actor."

Jian Xi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "So after all this time, wasn't it the people in my company who helped?"

"How can it be the same?" Little Green Tea rolled her eyes at him. "When your big boss gives a word, they get trembling with fear and start a war. It makes me feel like the client. The work doesn't even look like my work."

After a pause, she took Nan Xiang's arm and said with a smile, "But it will be different if Senior Nan Xiang helps. Everyone will be more relaxed. We just need her to help polish it. After all, I am from an academic school, so I must focus on my own creativity."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Lu Cha raised her glass and clinked it with Nan Xiang's: "Thank you, Senior."

Nan Xiang, who had been silent the whole time, glanced at Jian Xi, suppressed the smile on her lips, picked up the wine glass and said, "It's okay, it's just a small favor."

"..."

Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat when he saw this scene. Oh no! The Green Tea Girl and the White Lotus Girl have joined forces!

She had been holding her breath to show off her strength at home, but now she had to give up. She had a hard time in a one-on-one fight, and now she had no chance of winning.

As a result, the atmosphere at the table became quite strange for a moment, and the situation became more subtle than before.

After everyone tacitly let that incident go, they just chatted casually while eating. After removing the aspect of being with Jian Xi, everyone still had a lot to talk about in their respective lives.

Moreover, they all have something in common, so there is no need to worry about anyone not being able to get a word in.

It was just that after a few words between Lin Xiao and Nan Xiang, there would be a brief silence, then they would change the subject and start another one, but would soon fall into another silence again.

There is no way, the one major node that the two of them cannot escape is - the sisters of the times.

This group of best friends has been with them since middle school and until after graduation from college. In fact, they have been best friends even longer than Jian Xi knew them.

Sometimes, they even had a strange feeling that Jian Xi was interfering in their relationship.

But now, the Times Sisters are almost torn apart.

Finally, Lin Xiao couldn't help but bring up the topic and said, "Nan Xiang, you... you really don't plan to meet Gu Li? You and Wan Ru's things... Gu Li still has them there waiting for you."

As soon as Lin Xiao finished speaking, the atmosphere at the table became a little dull. Lin Quan glanced at Jian Xi and closed his mouth at the right time to stop interrupting.

Nan Xiang stared at the food in the bowl in a daze. After a few seconds, she said, "I... don't know how to face Gu Li?"

"Gu Li has always missed you guys. It's all over, isn't it?"

As the only glue in this group of besties, Lin Xiao once again proved who is the core of the Times Sisters. She just wanted to have a free fight with Nan Xiang, but now she said softly: "Nan Xiang, Gu Li has always been very lonely. You know she only has a few friends like us. She came back from the hospital yesterday and looked weaker than before."

"Hospital?" Nan Xiang froze while picking up the food, and then asked hurriedly, "Why did Gu Li go to the hospital?"

"It's okay, she was just pretending to be sick." Lin Xiao explained, "I went to look for her yesterday afternoon after I knew she had returned home. I knew she was fine, and I wanted to stay there with her, but she said she had something else to do today, so she didn't let me stay."

She paused for a moment, glanced at Jian Xi and continued, "You also know that Gu Li was unhappy that I often stayed at Jian Xi's place instead of accompanying her."

"Then why are you still..."

"Gu Li probably regretted what she said that night. She was afraid that she would ruin the relationship between Jian Xi and me. After that, she didn't ask me to stay at her place often to accompany her."

The dog man who was eating his food silently but was shot had a strange look on his face, thinking to himself, is this true?

Why does it feel like this is different from Gu Li’s character?

Nan Xiang looked depressed after hearing this. After a long silence, she said, "What about Tang Wanru? I haven't had any contact with her since then."

"It's the same with Wanru. Gu Li misses her too. She once let slip that she felt lonely without Wanru at home."

Lin Xiao sighed and said, "Wanru is living at home now. Her father is a sports coach. He is still training her and wants her to join the club and compete in the first level of badminton."

"How do you know?" Nan Xiang asked puzzledly.

"She told me herself!" Lin Xiao, the real flower of the Times Sisters, was quite pleased with herself. "In fact, I contacted her during the Chinese New Year, but I just didn't know how to tell you. When I tried to persuade her, she also said that she didn't know how to face Gu Li... and you."

Although Lin Xiao is sometimes quite silly, she has another great characteristic, which is that she is completely stubborn and can change her mind at any time.

Well... when she gets angry, she doesn't care about anything and just scolds whoever she catches, and she specifically hits them in the face. For example, she scolds Gu Li for being an ungrateful person who didn't rush to handle the funeral when his father died and only cared about dividing the inheritance, scolds Nan Xiang for being a bitch who pretends to be noble, and scolds Tang Wanru for being a fat pig...

But as soon as this emotion passed, she immediately changed her attitude and forgot about what had just happened.

It was because Gu Li had a deeper emotional dependence on her, so every time it was Gu Li who took the initiative to apologize, otherwise Lin Xiao would take the initiative to come forward and ask for reconciliation.

If others give her a way out, she can take it down; if no one gives her a way out, she can create one for herself.

Nan Xiang and Tang Wanru had conflicts with her before, but when Lin Xiao stood in front of them crying and apologizing pitifully, they couldn't get angry anymore.

Even Lin Quan was still angry after a conflict with Lin Xiao, but the other party came up to her and called her "schoolmate" and "A Quan" as if nothing had happened. This is one of the reasons why the little green tea girl has always been fearless in arguing with Lin Xiao.

As for Jian Xi, Lin Xiao had thrown a tantrum in front of him before, but who could blame her for having such a big breast?
So the dog man is sometimes speechless. Every time he looks at Lin Xiao, he has a feeling that "she is extremely vicious but really beautiful".

Well... to be exact, she is quite sexy but that face and breasts make it hard for any man to get bored.

So in the relationship centered on Lin Xiao, she is the undisputed MVP.

After hearing what Lin Xiao said, Lin Quan and Jian Xi looked at each other without saying anything. Nan Xiang's eyes sparkled with tears for a few times, and her lips trembled as she said, "I... I actually never blamed her. I miss Wanru too."

It appeared, Yamato good technique!

Jian Xi, who witnessed this scene, sighed in his heart. If it weren't for him, they would have reconciled earlier. If he was not there that night, they might have quarreled in the first half of the night, and reconciled in the second half while crying and hugging each other in the snow.

The word "best friend" is truly amazing.

Lin Xiao, who was also feeling a little upset, immediately turned hostile and said with a smile, "Yes, then why can you go to meet Wanru and Gu Li!"

After a pause, she smiled and added, "In fact, Wanru told me a few days ago that she would go to see Gu Li soon."

"Really?" Nan Xiang took back the little pearl and asked in surprise.

"Really." Lin Xiao nodded. "She complains every day that her father makes her miserable and bored after she gets home. I persuaded her to come back, and she agreed a few days ago."

"Then..." Nan Xiang's expression changed, and she was a little moved, but when she was about to agree...

"Dingling bell~"

A shrill cell phone ringtone rang out. Nan Xiang stopped talking and took out the phone from her pocket. There was an unfamiliar number on it.

Her brows furrowed slightly, and when she saw that everyone was looking at her, she answered the phone.

"Hello? Hello..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Nan Xiang's face darkened, and then she said coldly in the doubtful eyes of several people:

"Xicheng!"
