Cao Shuang dared not take the initiative to face it.
But Anqin can do it!
As long as he gets An Qin under his control and coaxes her, that couple will protect An Qin so much that they won't be on guard against her.
Haha, you didn't expect that, did you?!
The people you so diligently protect actually have their hearts with me.
They were stabbed in the back.
No matter how capable a person is, can they withstand someone else's underhanded schemes?
If open methods don't work, he also has covert ones.
He won't let that couple off easily—
Therefore, under these circumstances, he couldn't really yell at An Qin.
Now he has to appease her—
Cao Shuang showed no outward expression, but continued to weep uncontrollably.
“Anqin, I know you’re not that kind of person. You’re not the kind of person who can just stand by and watch others suffer…”
rustling-
It's the sound of the straw slurping between ice cubes as the coffee is drunk to the very bottom of the cup.
"Me too, I'm not such a bad person."
rustling-
"I know you understand me, you've always understood me."
rustling-
"I've always thought of you, Anqin, do you know why?"
"I sold my paintings for you, ran errands for you, and thought of you for you, but I dared not say any of this out loud. I was afraid that if I did, I would lose my mystery in your eyes and become a joke!"
rustling sounds—
Cao Shuang couldn't hold back any longer, stood up angrily, and roared.
"An Qin, can you please stop sipping that empty cup of coffee?!"
He poured his heart out to her, and what did she mean by that? What did she mean by that?!
If he hadn't needed her help, he would have slapped her already.
The crowd at the outdoor cafe glanced over again, and fell into a deathly silence.
Cao Shuang immediately deflated, pulled up his baseball cap, and sat back down in his original spot.
An Qin pursed her lips, looking innocent, slowly removed the straw from her lips, put the empty cup back on the table, shrugged, and looked obedient.
Seeing her like that, Cao Shuang felt a lump in his throat, and nothing seemed to go right.
But he has to keep going.
"The reason I did all that for you, went crazy searching for you after you disappeared, and even said those things in front of everyone on the first day of your art exhibition—oh, I know I was crazy. Do you know why I was crazy?"
"I've gone mad for love!!!"
Cao Shuang slammed his fist on the table, and the entire parasol jumped.
After saying this, Cao Shuang waited for An Qin's reaction.
In his imagination, An Qin should have broken down by now.
She cried and begged for forgiveness, tears streaming down her face.
He did that because he loved her.
That humble, weak woman—he had said he loved her!
She must have been incredibly touched—
Cao Shuang raised her head, a hint of anticipation unconsciously appearing on her lips.
But ten seconds passed.
The atmosphere at the scene was awkwardly quiet.
Thirty seconds passed.
The atmosphere at the scene became even more awkward.
Cao Shuang's smile froze.
A minute passed—
An Qin finally made a move, her expression flustered.
He reached out, seemingly to take the empty coffee cup from the table.
But she held back and withdrew her hand.
Cao Shuang thought: I understand. She is enduring, she is acting, she is expecting but dares not show it.
Cao Shuang decided to put in even more effort.
"The first time we met..."
Just as Anqin was about to launch into a long reminiscence of her university days, she spoke up.
"Senior, could you... hurry up?"
"...?"
Anqin sighed, looked around, and scratched her head.
"Senior, could you... hurry up and tell me what you want me to do?"
She waited for a long time, but it never came.
Cao Shuang was overjoyed. He took off his sunglasses in what he considered the most dashing way, revealing his peach blossom eyes, which were half-closed due to swelling of his cheeks.
“Anqin, since you understand my heart, you must not be able to bear seeing me being trampled on like this by that couple who take advantage of their money, right?”
"I just wanted to teach them a lesson, that's all..."
His voice gradually faded.
Anqin's eyes gradually brightened.
That evening, An Qin and Qin Ning sat facing each other at the dining table in the small, dark room.
There was a glass of water in front of An Qin. She pushed the glass towards Qin Ning, her face beaming with a smile.
Qin Ning glanced at the glass of water, then at An Qin, and frowned.
"What does this mean?"
“I met with my senior today,” An Qin said, her voice gentle and soft.
"Because I'm really stupid. Although Miss Qin gave me such a question, I can't think of any way to help Miss Qin."
"So, I went to see my senior."
"I hope you can give me some help."
An Qin spoke in a low voice, revealing Cao Shuang's entire plan.
It's going to be one of those plans, barring any unforeseen circumstances.
The methods used against Qin Ning are also easy to come up with.
"So what do you say?" Qin Ning listened coldly and expressionlessly, arms crossed.
"I said yes."
Qin Ning slammed her hand on the table and stood up, her face cold and aloof, remaining silent and reserved.
"Then I have nothing more to say to you."
Despite all her hard work, Anqin still couldn't stand up.
It's hopeless, take it away!
An Qin immediately stood up and grabbed her, a naive smile spreading across her face.
"I have to promise my senior!"
Qin Ning snorted coldly.
"Let go! I'll tell Weiran all of this as soon as he gets back!!"
“Only then can I be a real bad guy!” An Qin’s tone suddenly became louder.
Qin Ning: ………………! ?
An Qin smiled, like a cute little witch, holding Qin Ning's hand with one hand and holding the glass of water with the other.
"Actually, my senior didn't give me anything today."
“But I got my inspiration from my senior classmates.”
"I put something in this glass of water, but it won't harm Miss Qin Ning. I was very, very careful."
Qin Ning looked at the water glass, then stopped what she was doing with a suspicious look.
"It's just a little bit, but it makes me feel very comfortable, both physically and emotionally..." An Qin said, lowering her head and blushing slightly.
Qin Ning opened her cat-like eyes wide.
The moment she came to her senses, she was stunned; her mind went blank.
A hundred flowers bloom, the universe explodes, we ascend to heaven and meet God.
"I wonder if Miss Qin has ever heard this saying?" An Qin pushed up her glasses and chuckled.
"It's quite famous in our world."
"The subordinates take the blame for the superiors' mistakes, and the superiors steal the credit for the subordinates' achievements... And now I'm going to say these words to Miss Qin Ning in my own way..."
"All the blame is mine, while Mr. Bai belongs to Miss Qin."
