The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife-Chapter 687 - : Fell for Her Again_1

Chapter 687: Chapter 687: Fell for Her Again_1

The dinner came to an end amidst the divergent thoughts of everyone present.

After seeing Chen Shuinan off, Qiao Ning turned just in time to see Lin Xinxin and Chai Xiyang coming out.

Lin Xinxin, sweetly smiling while clutching Chai Xiyang’s arm, looked just like a blissful young woman.

She was likely engaged and in high spirits, and even spoke to Qiao Ning in a tone of contentment.

“Qiao Ning, the engagement banquet is the day after tomorrow. I’m going shopping tomorrow, would you like to accompany me?”, she asked, exuding grace, gentleness, and good intentions.

Qiao Ning responded casually, “I’ve already made an appointment with Director Chen…”

“Right, I’d forgotten about your date with him tomorrow!” Lin Xinxin laughed warmly, then began advising her from a sister’s perspective, “Qiao Ning, Director Chen is a good man. It’s not often someone like him takes a liking to you. You should seize this opportunity.”

The condescension in her tone was clear. She was not genuinely looking out for Qiao Ning.

Qiao Ning merely nodded in response and silently left the scene.

Chai Xiyang cast a glance at her fading figure and then said to Lin Xinxin indifferently, “Come on, let’s get in the car.”

On their drive, Lin Xinxin would intermittently recall their pending engagement.

Chai Xiyang drove attentively, occasionally participating in the conversation.

Suddenly, Lin Xinxin asked him, “Chai, do you think Qiao Ning and Director Chen are a good match? I think they make a good pair. What do you think?”

Chai Xiyang burst out laughing.

Startled, Lin Xinxin asked, “What are you laughing about?”

“Nothing much, just that it’s impossible for them!” Chai Xiyang’s words were layered in sarcasm.

Lin Xinxin nodded thoughtfully and said, “You’re right in a sense. Considering Director Chen’s status and family background, it would indeed be hard for Qiao Ning to be with him. But as long as they love each other, I don’t see any issues.”

Chai Xiyang didn’t respond. The look in his eyes had become significantly gloomier!

After quickly dropping Lin Xinxin off at her home, Chai Xiyang left immediately.

On the drive back, Chai Xiyang’s mood turned inexplicably irritable.

The way Qiao Ning looked at Chen Shuinan during dinner particularly aggravated him!

At the time, he really wished he could have blinded her, preventing her from casting those warm eyes indiscriminately!

However, he also knew… Qiao Ning would eventually be with someone else.

If he can’t be with her, then she should be with someone else.

However, a part of him didn’t want her to be with another man. But he and Qiao Ning are impossible…

Chai Xiyang abruptly stopped the car and angrily struck the steering wheel.

How could this be? How could he have developed inappropriate feelings for Qiao Ning again? Why create such a dilemma for himself?

Leaning on the car seat, Chai Xiyang closed his eyes and thought it over.

Maybe he had nurtured feelings for her again five years ago…

But they are really impossible.

He could be kind to her, compensate her, but never be with her.

After all, her mother is Kong Minjuan…

The woman he despises most in his life.

…

When Chai Xiyang got home, Qiao Ning had already gone to bed.

He stood in front of her room for a moment when he got upstairs, but eventually walked away silently.

The day after tomorrow, he would be getting engaged to Lin Xinxin.

In these two days, he shouldn’t think about anything else. It will be over once he gets through these few days.

Things will settle down eventually.

Chen Shuinan is a good prospect. Qiao Ning being with him isn’t a bad idea after all.
