Chapter 312: Chapter 312: It’s Like Coming to Propose
“No need; you’re too enthusiastic. She’s timid, I’m afraid you might scare her away.”
With the man’s rejection, Jiang You became even more eager.
“Among the people I know, if I remember correctly, there shouldn’t be anyone who is timid.”
“Other than An Mi who’s introverted, everyone else is quite open.” She turned to look at An Mi, but didn’t suspect anything.
“…”
An Mi felt that she couldn’t let her continue speaking.
“Jiang You, my stomach hurts a little, let’s hurry home.”
She didn’t even want the necklace anymore and was pulling Jiang You towards the exit.
“Hold on, I’ll just pay real quick, it won’t take long.”
Jiang You wouldn’t let her gossipy behavior delay her determination to pamper her little sister.
It didn’t even take a minute, she took care of it.
“Here, take this, your New Year gift.”
She took the gift bag from the sales associate and handed it to An Mi.
An Mi obediently accepted it and thanked her.
Jiang You turned to Wan Muqi: “Then, Mr. Qi, we’ll head off first. Let’s get together after the New Year, and I’ll ask then.”
An Mi also said, “Mr. Wan, Mr. Qin, goodbye.”
After the two left, Qin Mi finally spoke up: “Are you still in the mood to pick gifts with me?”
Seeing him like this, her spirit seemed almost taken away by An Mi. She guessed he might not have the heart to accompany her shopping anymore.
Qin Mi then said, “Mr. Qi, to be frank, you and An Mi have a big age gap. Do you think you can make it work? Your topics of conversation might not even match, right?”
She meant no offense; she was merely stating the facts.
Wan Muqi responded with an indifferent and somewhat serious demeanor: “Qin Mi, this is none of your concern.”
Qin Mi was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said: “Indeed, I’m being nosy. But don’t worry, I am not the kind to cling on desperately. Since you have someone you like, then I will stop liking you. You don’t have to worry about me giving An Mi a hard time at school. I disdain such petty actions. After all, there are plenty of men in this world, and you’re not the only one.”
Wan Muqi had indeed been worried that Qin Mi would hurt An Mi, but her words today made it clear that the one being petty was him.
Qin Mi saw him staring at her without speaking and continued: “Be assured, I’m speaking the truth. Before I returned, I truly admired you, and at this moment, I still like you.”
She had just finished speaking when she saw him frown.
“But, it’s just a liking, and I’m not sure if it’s even the romantic kind. However, one thing I can be certain about is that I might just like your profession more, because I think lawyers are really cool.”
“Mr. Wan, you are truly outstanding and definitely one of the most desirable partners for many girls. But just one among many, after all, there’s more than just you who are lawyers, right?”
Wan Muqi’s expression relaxed, Qin Mi’s values were indeed upright.
He said, “Qin Mi, it was narrow-minded of me, I apologize.”
Qin Mi smiled carelessly, “If we can’t be lovers, we can still be friends, right?”
What do you think?
