We moved to Golden Courtyard

"Me, hit Xu Qi?"

Really?!

859. Bronya is the real boss.

Xu Qi may not know that at this moment he has become a hot commodity, and it seems that everyone wants to take a bite.

"That little girl Xilin wanted to express her gratitude and invited you to her house for dinner tonight... It seems that Liu Qi has also been inviting you out, right? You even accepted her invitation once."

Bronya and Xu Qi ate lunch out. After finalizing the contract, they found a random place to have lunch, and then Xilin called.

Xu Qi naturally couldn't keep it from Bronya, so...

That's how the above words came about.

Bronya, not content with that, grinned mischievously and leaned against Xu Qi, saying, "You guys... fought all night..."

"Don't talk nonsense, it's just a meal."

"I don't believe it!" Bronya rolled her eyes. This CEO was becoming increasingly unpretentious in places where she didn't know many people.

Even during meals, she would stick to Xu Qi and refuse to get down, sometimes needing Xu Qi to feed her to eat.

Next time, let's take this guy out for hamburgers; those don't need to be fed.

"Tell me, isn't Liu Qi's figure amazing?"

Xu Qi glanced at Bronya's chest; the white short-sleeved shirt couldn't hide her impressive figure, even with a jacket over it.

She's the kind of person who, if she doesn't tighten her bra when she goes out, will definitely wobble around when she walks.

"You're definitely not as good as me."

Bronya's smiling eyes instantly turned cold.

"So, you did measure it?"

"Measured with the eyes."

“…” Bronya sat up straight and gave a soft hum, indicating that she was somewhat satisfied with Xu Qi’s answer.

"But what about that little girl Sirin's invitation? It's not easy to refuse..."

"I didn't intend to refuse." Xu Qi sighed and said, "The little girl seems indifferent and has come to terms with it, but her emotions are still a bit unstable."

"We can't afford any major shocks at this time; we still have to go."

Upon hearing this, the CEO seemed to have thought of something, a playful glint in her eyes. She pressed herself against Xu Qi again, her tone carrying a hint of ambiguity.

"Oh, I see... then I'll come with you."

Why is that big duck pouncing again? It's like it's climbing on the roof if you don't discipline it for three days straight. Looks like I'll have to feed it a meal.

"Sure, I'm fine with it. I don't know if the little girl will agree."

Seeing Xu Qi's open and honest demeanor, Bronya was certain that he indeed had no improper thoughts about that little girl for the time being.

But whether it will happen again in the future is uncertain.

As for whether those two girls agree or not... Ha! Let's get this straight, I'm the boss from the company! They've all paid homage to me!

······

To be honest, Xu Qi was quite looking forward to the invitations from Xilin and Xier.

Both girls were the type who didn't have many friends. Normally, the story would have been a beautiful tale of two girls becoming lifelong friends.

But then... a variable appeared in the story—Xu Qi.

In fact, someone like Xu Qi would definitely see through the two girls' thoughts.

He's just pretending to be confused.

That's what scumbags are like. They always find all sorts of excuses for themselves. Even though they know a girl's feelings, they don't choose to reject her directly, but instead keep her hanging on like this.

In other words, it's playing dumb.

Xu Qi, on the other hand, is clearly a master of feigning ignorance.

However, lately, at least when facing Xilin, he has become increasingly unable to maintain that facade of confusion.

The joy in her heart was beginning to show, and her previous desire to protect the other person was completely genuine.

If he said he had absolutely no feelings for Xilin... Xu Qi couldn't lie to himself.

But what if Xier really falls for Xilin? What about the friendship between Xilin and Xier? Xu Qi still remembers the expression on Xier's face when she burst into the office that day after he hugged Xilin.

Beneath the repression lurked a hint of madness.

It's just like—a yandere girlfriend?

If Xier had had an extra knife, Xu Qi would have first considered whether there was a kettle of boiling water nearby, out of fear...

However, Xu Qi still likes Xi'er...

A true scumbag is like this: he falls in love with every woman he meets.

Fortunately, Bronya was with me today.

“I don’t care about anything else, but I can’t give you this coming-of-age ceremony tonight. Let’s not talk about Xi’er, but Xilin suddenly had a change of fortune, and you’re taking advantage of her situation, aren’t you? Xu Qi.”

Bronya's reminder was timely, and Xu Qi took a deep breath.

Xu Qi has more and more girlfriends, but he still doesn't want to become a pervert who plays with women's hearts.

Treating others with sincerity—that's the essence of Xu Qi.

Just as Bronya said, if he couldn't resist doing something wrong tonight, he could take advantage of the situation.

"Don't worry, I have a measure."

But this sense of proportion wavered when Seele's door opened.

"Mr. Xu Qi, you've arrived!"

A white cheongsam, adorned with touches of blue spider lilies, accentuated the young girl's budding figure. Upon entering, Xi'er greeted Xu Qi with a beaming smile.

Today, Seele seems to possess a breathtaking beauty.

Bronya clicked her tongue, looking at the tiny room in front of her that was probably no more than 40 square meters, and thought with a sigh—this is hardly an invitation for you to come over as a guest…

This is clearly a den of iniquity, a carefully laid trap by Seele for Xu Qi, just waiting to devour you whole, bones and all.

"Sister Bronya."

Bronya, who had originally intended to make a sarcastic remark, was visibly taken aback upon hearing Seele's address. A tender feeling welled up in her heart, and she couldn't help but look at Seele with a touch of affection.

Bronya, my sister...

It felt as if Seele really was her sister.

But I... I clearly grew up in an orphanage, didn't I?

However, Bronya didn't have any obvious ill feelings towards Seele. Seeing Seele looking like she only had eyes for Xu Qi, she wasn't jealous at all, but rather found it amusing.

I want to see... what killer moves Xi'er has prepared for Xu Qi tonight.

“Xier, you are like this today…”

"What's wrong, Mr. Xu Qi?"

Xu Qi scratched his head and exclaimed sincerely, "You look really beautiful today. Did you dress up specially?"

……

Bronya suppressed a laugh, while Seele seemed to be hearing Xu Qi praise her so directly for the first time.

The little girl stood there for a while before realizing that she should let Xu Qi and the others find a place to sit first.

With her cheeks flushed and a hint of girlish panic, she led Xu Qi and Bronya to sit on the sofa in the small living room. Coincidentally, Xilin also peeked out from her room and rushed over to Xu Qi with delight when she saw him.

"Little Xu! You're here!"

Bronya couldn't help but glance sideways—Little Xu? You can tolerate this?

Xu Qi seemed to have really gotten used to Xilin's way of addressing him. When Xilin rushed over, he firmly hugged her and said with a smile, "How could I not come after I promised you? We're friends!"

860. Seele will firmly grasp everything.

Just as Xilin was about to continue lying on Xu Qi, laughing and joking around, she seemed to notice two sharp gazes shooting at her.

For a moment, Xilin's expression stiffened.

It's obvious which two people they are...

"Cirin, come to the kitchen and help me out."

"Okay! Coming right away!"

Xu Qi looked at Xi'er in surprise.

"Xier looks so beautiful today, is she still going to cook? Or should I do it?"

Is it...good-looking?

Her face was as rosy as a phoenix in flight, with a blush spreading across her cheeks, making Seele look incredibly alluring at that moment.

She turned around and said somewhat awkwardly, "Mr. Xu Qi, please sit down. How can you let a guest do the work?" After saying that, she looked at Xilin with a frosty expression.

"You, come in with me."

So you're treating me differently?! Is this what best friends are like?!

However, Sirin hung her head and followed Seele into the kitchen.

There was nothing she could do; she had indeed run away without permission, and she was in the wrong.

After observing the two girls' condition, Bronya couldn't help but look at Xu Qi with a mocking expression, "Our Director Xu looks like he's committed a grave sin."

"Don't laugh, you'll be crying when you get back."

Duck's face flushed red, but she chuckled and said, "You don't actually think you'll be able to go back tonight, do you?"

"Ok?"

Xu Qi was taken aback, not understanding what Bronya meant.

"Look at Xier, she went to great lengths to see you, having Xilin invite you out and dressing herself up so beautifully. I'm tempted myself. Why don't you just give in?"

"Am I some kind of bulldozer?"

Bronya put a finger to her lips, staring at Xu Qi with a mocking expression, "Isn't that right? Counting the sisters from last night, do you want to count how many you've already..."

The fact that they're sisters is unavoidable, isn't it? You're envious of people who have younger sisters, aren't you?

"However~~"

Bronya crossed her legs, and the sound of her legs, covered in black stockings, rubbing together as she moved was clearly audible to Xu Qi.

I want to touch it...

"Xier is quite nice. You were tempted by that cheongsam she wore just now, weren't you?"

Xu Qi turned his head away and remained silent. He felt that he was becoming increasingly decadent lately, after all, for a moment just now, he did have the urge to...

cough!

Xu Qi shook his head.

"Why are you only talking about Seele? You like Seele, so you're advising me to take her in, right? What about Sirin? When will my little Sirin stand up again? I'm so angry and cold."

"Stop messing around. If you can let go of Sirin, I'll say whatever you want."

Haha... Bronya saw right through me...

"Many people in the courtyard have already told you this, right? Sometimes it's good to make some changes. Think about it, you've had more than ten girlfriends already, so there's nothing wrong with doing what you want, isn't there?"

“But this…” Xu Qi smiled bitterly, but he also knew that he was just trying to have his cake and eat it too.

He's already a scumbag, a complete scumbag. He sees a pretty woman and likes her, he wants her, so what? Can't he enjoy himself?
