The boys were slow to react and probably didnât 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 didnât want the boys to stare at her?
Such possessiveness and jealousyâŠ
The girls felt sour.
No, it was worse than eating a sour lemon.
Shen Xin was superior to them in every aspect, and it wasnât easy for them to use Qiao Chenâs 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 wouldnât even be incompatible in the family.
Soon, the waiter returned with a blanket.
Qiao Chen took it and handed it to Shen Xin. âPut it on.â
Shen Xin: ââŠâ
âQiao Chen, Iâm not cold. IâŠâ
âYouâre obviously cold, donât deny it. Your elegance isnât as important as your temperature.â
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 didnât accept her because he felt that he wasnât worthy of her.
And now, he was doing this to her in public.
Although it was just a blanket, they wouldnât do this if it was a normal couple.
This was already considered ambiguous.
Qiao Chen wasnât trying to avoid suspicion at all.
The table was silent.
Everyone was shocked.
After all, theyâd always thought that Qiao Chen didnât 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 wouldnât hate being harassed by a girl they didnât like for years?
But Qiao Chenâs actions were like a slap to their faces.
âAre you still cold?â Qiao Chen asked gently as if he hadnât noticed the stares around him.
Shen Xin: ââŠâ
She shook her head. âNo.â
She wasnât cold, to begin with.
He was the one who insisted on covering her with a blanket.
âThatâs good.â Qiao Chen nodded and smiled. âIf itâs still cold, get the waiter to increase the temperature of the air conditioner. Itâs not good to catch a cold in this weather. I remember you caught a cold once, and it took a long time to recover.â
Such gentle and considerate words, not to mention others, even Shen Xin was a little dazed.
What was Qiao Chen up to tonight?
