Chapter 1086 - 1085: Six Nine

"So, I must admit, I had Mr. Rayne’s help in opening the shop." As she said this, Xia Chuyi gave Li Mingjie a meaningful look.

As expected, Li Mingjie must have intentionally confused Huo Shiqian with Rayne, misleading Huang Feifei.

Which led to Huang Feifei firmly believing that Xia Chuyi had gotten involved with a "wild man," and that Xia Chuyi’s WEI was opened by this "wild man" for her.

"But, the initial capital for opening the store was entirely provided by me." Xia Chuyi said calmly, "So, from start to finish, this shop has belonged solely to me."

"And about the person I was dating..." At this point, Xia Chuyi smiled slightly and said, "That was my fiancé."

"Fiancé?" The three words Xia Chuyi spoke left everyone present stunned.

"You actually have a fiancé?" This was Chen Miao and Chen Chen’s reaction.

"Your fiancé... did he come to the United States?" This was the reaction of the informed one, Xie Junping.

Compared to Chen Miao and Chen Chen, Xie Junping was noticeably more shocked.

Yes, as someone who knew the facts—Huo Shiqian coming to the United States was quite unbelievable.

Aware of Xie Junping’s surprise, Xia Chuyi discreetly nodded at him and said, "Yes, I’ve had a fiancé for a long time, and my fiancé came to the United States on a business trip. He had some free time in between, so he took the opportunity to visit me."

"When my fiancé came, coincidentally, Li Mingjie was also there." Xia Chuyi glanced at Li Mingjie and said, "And as I recall, my fiancé was introduced by Li Mingjie at that time."

"So, I don’t know what Li said that led Huang Feifei to misunderstand, mistaking my fiancé for a wild man."

Everyone was clever enough to understand that after hearing Xia Chuyi’s words, there was certainly an issue with the messenger, Li Mingjie.

And as for Li Mingjie himself, he could only pretend to be calm and apologize once again to Xia Chuyi.

"Sorry, perhaps I wasn’t clear when I spoke." Li Mingjie was really capable of being flexible; after he said this, nobody pressed any further.

Xia Chuyi withdrew her gaze and didn’t argue with him—more precisely, she couldn’t even be bothered to argue with him.

However, Xia Chuyi had secretly decided to expose Li Mingjie someday.

With this, the "wild man" misunderstanding incident came to a close.

"Chuyi, is WEI really yours?" After everyone dispersed, as soon as Chen Miao returned to the room with Xia Chuyi, she couldn’t help but ask her.

"Yes." Xia Chuyi nodded slightly and, a bit bashfully, said, "I’m sorry I didn’t tell you about this."

Upon hearing this, Chen Miao immediately shook her head and said, "No need to apologize, no need to apologize. It’s your own business; why must you tell me?"

"We’re all adults; if you don’t want to say something, you don’t have to. It’s no big deal." Chen Miao seemed quite nonchalant about it.

"It’s just..." Chen Miao sighed and said, "I never would have thought that WEI was actually your shop!"

"You don’t know; I heard those American classmates mention WEI, saying WEI is a Chinese magic food shop, and that the food inside has the magic touch of China, making it particularly delicious..."

At this point, Chen Miao paused slightly, and with a look of both pride and amusement on her face, she said, "Hearing them say that made me feel so proud inside!"
