The Sweetest Medicine

Chapter 712: Heartbroken! Never even fallen in love (2)

“Which day?”

“Your brother has set the date for the banquet.”

Jiang Qi was suddenly enlightened,”about you being Xia Ling, I should be the one apologizing. I misunderstood you that day. You know what kind of person Xia Ling is, but you had no choice at the time, so you could only blame me for not believing me and for being stupid. I almost blamed you and my brother for what happened.”

“At that time, I didn’t want you to continue to be confused and was afraid that Xia Ling would be suspicious, so I could only say that I was afraid that I would tell others about the mistakes you had done in the past and that I was very sorry.”

Jiang Qi waved her hand, not caring at all,””It’s okay. I know you don’t think that way. We know each other’s secrets, and we won’t tell anyone. But master handsome, there’s something I want to say. I know you like my sister-in-law, but she’s already with my brother. There’s nothing between you two, so I suggest you look at the people around you.”

He Shigui furrowed his brows, not knowing how to reply to her.

Jiang Qi continued,”they say that the best way to forget someone is to start a new relationship. After a long time ...”

He Shigui interrupted her,”you might have misunderstood.”

“Misunderstanding?”

He Shigui didn’t eat the plum in his hand. After holding it for a while, he put it back and looked at Jiang Qi seriously,” “You misunderstood me at the hot spring. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t think it was necessary, not because I was threatened by you. Besides, you’re just a child. There’s no need to explain this to you. Besides, they had just gotten together at that time. I didn’t think that they would definitely get married, so I didn’t think there was a need to explain. Now that they’re engaged and we’ll be relatives in the future, there’s something I have to tell you. The relationship between my girl and I is family. It doesn’t matter if she’s treating me or I’m treating you, so I hope you won’t say such things again. It’ll cause a lot of trouble for them if others misunderstand. ”

Jiang Qi looked at him in confusion.

Her beautiful master meant that he didn’t like her.

They were only family.

......

But, she didn’t feel like that was the case before. But...If that was the case, it was a good thing. Jiang Qi couldn’t help but smile.

Why didn’t he explain it clearly in the past? today, he had to explain it clearly.

Was it really just because her brother and sister-in-law were engaged?

Could she be part of the reason?

With this thought, Jiang Qi’s heart suddenly beat faster, her cheeks and ears burned. She touched her ear shyly and said,””Master handsome, why don’t we try?”

He Shigui was a little stunned as he looked at Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi swallowed her saliva and looked at he Shigui carefully. Her heart started to twist nervously.

He Shigui’s expression darkened. Before Jiang Qi could say anything, he suddenly stood up,”miss Jiang, it’s getting late. You should go back.”

Jiang Qi’s face turned pale as an indescribable pain appeared in her heart.

She didn’t move as she looked up at he Shigui and muttered,””Master handsome, are you rejecting me?”

He Shigui laughed and asked,””Do you know what our relationship is?”
