Chapter 378: Jealous

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Murong Qiao looked at the pile of bags on the ground and didn’t know what to say.

However, Ruan Ying still felt that it was not enough. “There’s a limit to what I can carry. I’ve already asked the chauffeur to help send some things to your house.”

There was even a hint of pity in her tone. Clearly, she felt that her spoils of war were not enough.

“Actually, there’s no need to be so… exaggerated.” Murong Qiao was helpless.

She knew that Ruan Ying could do whatever she wanted, but she still couldn’t stand to see her carrying so many bags.

However, Ruan Ying was straightforward. She didn’t need a reason to be good to someone.

She said self-righteously, “But you’re my good friend.”

Ruan Ying’s words fell into An Nuo’s ears as she pushed the door open and walked in.

She stopped in her tracks and looked past the door frame at the energetic girl in front of the desk.

“An Nuo?” Murong Qiao then realized her existence.

An Nuo’s eyes curved as she smiled and said, “I came to visit you before class.”

Her schedule today was filled to the brim and she would be at the company all day. Recently, she had emphasized the training of the acting class to prepare her talents for acting gigs in the future.

“An Nuo…?” Ruan Ying suddenly said.

Her curious gaze landed on An Nuo and she sized up her without hostility.

It was a name she had never heard before.

An Nuo knew this person. “Hello, Young Miss Ruan.”

She acted a little distant, then found the sofa beside Murong Qiao and sat down.

An Nuo couldn’t help but be a little concerned by Ruan Ying’s words just now. She looked at the expressionless Murong Qiao and then at Ruan Ying on the other side. For a moment, she was at a loss.

After all, An Nuo’s impression of Ruan Ying was that she was with Huo Xiuyuan the last time they were at the hotel.

“You don’t have to call me that. I’m not used to it. Just call me Ruan Ying.” Ruan Ying waved her hand.

The manner of address, Young Miss Ruan, made her feel a little uneasy.

Ruan Ying then held Murong Qiao’s arm naturally. After talking to An Nuo, she turned around and stuck to Murong Qiao again.

She looked at the documents curiously. “It’s so messy. Qiaoqiao, don’t you feel dizzy?”

“I feel sleepy just by looking at one page,” Ruan Ying said bluntly.

These documents were endless. Sometimes, there were pits hidden in them. She didn’t want to read them.

Murong Qiao wrote the word “rejected” on the document and replied, “It’s actually a little fun.”

Murong Qiao was used to being a boss these few days.

“But my parents always ask me to learn these things…” Ruan Ying complained.

She went to Murong Qiao’s side. Even if she was just talking to herself, she could talk for a long time.

There were clearly three people in the office, but after watching Ruan Ying speak for a long time, and Murong Qiao’s occasional replies, An Nuo sat at the side and felt that she couldn’t interrupt.

She subconsciously clenched her fists. Looking at Ruan Ying and Murong

Qiao’s intimate posture, she suddenly felt empty.

When did they become good friends?

Qiao didn’t seem to have mentioned it to her…

An Nuo suddenly realized this and her ears were filled with Ruan Ying’s lively voice. It was rare for her to feel a little upset.

Although it was a little difficult to say, seeing Ruan Ying so close to Murong Qiao made An Nuo feel like Murong Qiao had been snatched away from her.

On the way here just now, she had many topics to talk about, but when she saw the scene in front of her, her mind turned blank.

“…Qiao,” An Nuo suddenly said. “The Teacher might be coming soon. I’ll leave first.”

After she finished speaking, for the first time, she didn’t wait for Murong Qiao to respond and actually started walking out impatiently.

“Alright—” Murong Qiao agreed.

She felt that it was a little strange. An Nuo seemed to be a little abnormal today. She wanted to ask her if something had happened.

In the end, when she looked up, An Nuo had already left.

Before Murong Qiao could think carefully about what was going on with An

Nuo, her attention was diverted by Ruan Ying’s voice.

“I remember that you don’t have classes this weekend. Why don’t we go camping next week?” Ruan Ying asked.

She always seemed to have some strange ideas. After having Murong Qiao, this friend, she wanted to try them one by one.

An Nuo couldn’t listen to the rest of the conversation. After she walked out of the office, she rushed towards the practice room with her head lowered.

Jiang Chi happened to be walking over. When he saw An Nuo, he immediately opened his mouth to say something.

“Young Miss An Nuo, the Teacher…” But as he spoke, An Nuo didn’t stop.

An Nuo only hurriedly said, “I’m sorry, I’m not in a good state now.”

Looking at the abnormal An Nuo today, Jiang Chi was also a little confused, not understanding what was going on.

Since it was not an urgent matter, Jiang Chi thought about it and pushed this matter to tomorrow.

It was rare for An Nuo to be controlled by her emotions. When she returned to the training room, she was a little annoyed with her performance just now.

She was not jealous, but when she saw how close Murong Qiao and Ruan Ying were and how they didn’t even talk to her much, she couldn’t help but feel a little uncomfortable.

It was as if… she and Murong Qiao were no longer best buddies.

A lonely glint flashed across An Nuo’s eyes.

Then, during the performance class in the afternoon, she was even more out of sorts.

She even made mistakes in what she was best at.

“An Nuo, this isn’t like you.” The teacher was also puzzled.

She prided herself on her strict teaching style, but An Nuo was also one of the best students the teacher had taught. Her obvious absent-mindedness today also puzzled the teacher.

An Nuo blushed. “I’m sorry… I’m not feeling well today.”

She lied, which was rare, to hide the real reason for her bad condition.

An Nuo stood rooted to the ground with her head lowered, but she felt the teacher’s scrutinizing gaze on her.

“Forget it.” The teacher waved her hand. “That’s all for today’s class.”

Without being in the best condition, An Nuo wouldn’t be able to absorb anything even if the lesson was good.

“I hope you can adjust your condition as soon as possible. I’ll make an exception and end it early today,” the teacher announced.

An Nuo nodded. After watching the teacher leave the training room, she stood rooted to the ground hesitantly.

Usually, if she ended the class early, she would definitely look for Murong Qiao and wait for her to finish her work before going home together.

But… An Nuo suddenly hesitated when she thought of Ruan Ying’s existence.

Forget it, she would just send her a message.

An Nuo lowered her head and turned on her cell phone. [Qiao, 1’11 go home first today.]

The moment the message was sent, Murong Qiao’s phone vibrated twice.

Murong Qiao looked up from the pile of documents and frowned even more after reading the message.

An Nuo was not waiting for her to go home?

Murong Qiao was surprised and puzzled. She was just thinking of calling An Nuo out for dinner later.

As for the most noisy Ruan Ying, she was also pushed away by Murong Qiao not long after An Nuo left.

She had something on and couldn’t keep fooling around with Ruan Ying.

“Boss?” Jiang Chi asked.

His voice, which was halfway through his report, stopped when Murong Qiao read the message.

Murong Qiao rubbed her throbbing forehead. “Is there something urgent?”

“There are three,” Jiang Chi replied truthfully.

Murong Qiao took a deep breath and stood up. “Alright, send me the emails. I still have something on today. 1 have to leave first.”

An Nuo’s abnormality really bothered her.

“Alright,” Jiang Chi replied.

Murong Qiao left almost immediately after work. After leaving the company, she headed home.

At this moment, An Nuo still didn’t know that Murong Qiao had gotten off work early. She sat on the sofa at home and stared at her cell phone with pursed lips, feeling a little unhappy.

Her thoughts were in a mess, and she couldn’t focus.

When Murong Qiao pushed open the door and the two of them met each other’s eyes, An Nuo didn’t think too much and blurted out what she was thinking. “You didn’t accompany Ruan Ying?”
