The boys were slow to react and probably didn’t know what Qiao Chen was doing.
But the sensitive girls could already tell that it was ambiguous.
Was Qiao Chen trying to use a blanket… to cover Shen Xin?
Was it because he didn’t want the boys to stare at her?
Such possessiveness and jealousy…
The girls felt sour.
No, it was worse than eating a sour lemon.
Shen Xin was superior to them in every aspect, and it wasn’t easy for them to use Qiao Chen’s incident to attack her. But if Qiao Chen liked Shen Xin, how could they attack her?
They were the ones who felt the blow.
Even the poor Qiao Chen and Shen Xin would feel uncomfortable when they were together.
But now, Qiao Chen was the Young Master of the Mo family.
If Shen Xin was with him, they wouldn’t even be incompatible in the family.
Soon, the waiter returned with a blanket.
Qiao Chen took it and handed it to Shen Xin. “Put it on.”
Shen Xin: “…”
“Qiao Chen, I’m not cold. I…”
“You’re obviously cold, don’t deny it. Your elegance isn’t as important as your temperature.”
This time, Qiao Chen draped the blanket over her without caring if she was willing.
When his hand passed through her hair and touched her neck, Shen Xin stiffened.
Qiao Chen wrapped the blanket around her and only let go after making sure she was fully covered.
Shen Xin looked down at the blanket and slowly looked up at him with a complicated expression.
What was Qiao Chen trying to do?
First, he said in front of everyone that he allowed her to pester him. He even said that he didn’t accept her because he felt that he wasn’t worthy of her.
And now, he was doing this to her in public.
Although it was just a blanket, they wouldn’t do this if it was a normal couple.
This was already considered ambiguous.
Qiao Chen wasn’t trying to avoid suspicion at all.
The table was silent.
Everyone was shocked.
After all, they’d always thought that Qiao Chen didn’t like Shen Xin.
In the past, he avoided her whenever he could.
All along, they saw Shen Xin clinging to Qiao Chen shamelessly. Qiao Chen always looked annoyed.
Hence, they felt that he definitely hated Shen Xin.
Who wouldn’t hate being harassed by a girl they didn’t like for years?
But Qiao Chen’s actions were like a slap to their faces.
“Are you still cold?” Qiao Chen asked gently as if he hadn’t noticed the stares around him.
Shen Xin: “…”
She shook her head. “No.”
She wasn’t cold, to begin with.
He was the one who insisted on covering her with a blanket.
“That’s good.” Qiao Chen nodded and smiled. “If it’s still cold, get the waiter to increase the temperature of the air conditioner. It’s not good to catch a cold in this weather. I remember you caught a cold once, and it took a long time to recover.”
Such gentle and considerate words, not to mention others, even Shen Xin was a little dazed.
What was Qiao Chen up to tonight?
