Xiao Minxing sat down in front of me and said, "A few days ago, it was announced that the famous young man from Haicheng, Su Qian, is getting married. This afternoon, there was another headline saying it has been canceled."
I must have been too shocked because I didn't jump up from my chair. I widened my eyes and looked at Xiao Minxing and asked, "What does that mean?"
He had a calm expression, but his gaze held a deeper meaning as he looked at me.
This kind of look made me very uncomfortable, especially since Xiao Minxing hadn't mentioned Su Qian in front of me for a long time. Even when he used to come to the studio, he only reminded me to pay attention to someone. It was rare for him to have such a formal conversation about him.
Although nothing happened between us, I felt a bit guilty under Xiao Minxing's scrutiny and unconsciously turned my gaze elsewhere, saying, "What exactly is going on? I heard Su Qian say before that he would never get married, but I also know that people like him can't possibly tolerate being single for life. Getting married is just a matter of time. But why did it suddenly change?"
Xiao Minxing asked calmly, "Do you know who he was going to marry?"
"Is it Guan Mingyue? She came to the studio looking for me today and mentioned that Su Qian was getting married."
After saying this, I looked at Xiao Minxing, finding it strange that if he already knew about Su Qian's marriage, he should also know who the bride was. Why was he still asking me?
But when I raised my head and saw his expression, I realized something was off.
It seemed like something wasn't right; the decision for Su Qian to get married was made after we had drinks at the bar that night, while the cancellation happened after Guan Mingyue came to see me.
There must be some connection between these events.
I didn't dare think about how it related to me because even I couldn't believe it. However, Xiao Minxing's gaze was indeed somewhat frightening; that certain look clearly told me that this matter had something to do with me.
"Well, I haven't been in touch with him much lately. Besides, Guan Mingyue coming to see me isn't really my business. I can't just block the door of the studio and not let anyone in."
My voice noticeably dropped as I couldn't bear to look into Xiao Minxing's eyes, weakly defending myself.
He lightly responded with an "mm," not continuing the conversation, and it seemed like the matter ended there.
However, a few days later, Guan Mingyue barged into my studio again. This time she didn't even bother with basic politeness and opened with, "Qiu Yuhan, you are despicable."
I sat there watching her for a long time, not even thinking about responding to her.
But she was furious, reaching out to snatch the documents from my hands, ready to tear them apart.
She said, "You pretentious white lotus, don’t think that Su Qian can’t see through you. Just because others don’t know what kind of person you are doesn’t mean I don’t. You’re really something, seducing even a fool."
The more I listened, the angrier I became. I couldn’t let her tear my documents; it was a project proposal that I hadn’t finished reading yet.
So, taking advantage of the fact that she had just grabbed it, I snatched it back and pushed her back a bit, saying, "Are you crazy? I don’t even know what you’re talking about!"
Guan Mingyue stumbled back a few steps in her high heels. If she hadn’t been holding onto a nearby cabinet, she would have definitely fallen on her backside.
I didn’t expect to use so much force. As I looked at my hand in shock, another person appeared at the entrance.
It was Su Qian.
I didn’t even know when he had shown up. Did he see me push Guan Mingyue just now? Did he think I was the malicious white lotus?
But soon I realized that none of this mattered to him. He must have already understood what kind of person I was; the real question was how he would handle the situation unfolding before him.
Guan Mingyue seized the opportunity. Her feet, which had been steady, suddenly gave way and she ended up sitting on the floor, looking up at Su Qian with tears in her eyes, biting her lip gently.
She looked extremely pitiful, instantly creating an image of me bullying her and pushing her down.
The air in the room felt heavy. I glanced at Su Qian at the entrance and then at Guan Mingyue sitting on the floor, unable to figure out what kind of play they were putting on. So when they didn’t speak, I remained silent as well.
Su Qian stood at the entrance for a few minutes before slowly walking in, but he wasn’t heading towards Guan Mingyue; he was coming towards me.
I felt a bit nervous. After all, news of their engagement had already spread; their relationship was significant. For a moment, I even thought about what I would do if Su Qian came over to hit me in revenge for Guan Mingyue.
However, when he reached me, he simply said softly, "I’m sorry," and asked if I was hurt anywhere.
I numbly shook my head, feeling completely lost in a fog.
However, Su Qian had already turned around and was walking towards Guan Mingyue, so I couldn't see his expression. But Guan Mingyue's appearance was extremely strange.
For the first time, fear showed on her face, and her body trembled slightly. She unconsciously shrank back, biting her lip so hard that faint traces of blood began to seep out.
Su Qian stood in front of her, his voice cold and deliberate as he said, "Whether I marry you or not has nothing to do with anyone else. What do you want from her?"
Guan Mingyue clearly had fear in her eyes, but when she spoke, she refused to back down: "Nothing to do with anyone else? Su Qian, I used to believe that too, but now can you honestly say that your decision not to marry me has nothing to do with this woman? Do you even know that she is already married and has a child who is that old? What are you still waiting for? What can you possibly gain from her?"
Su Qian grabbed her and lifted her off the ground, bringing their eyes level: "That's my business; it's none of your concern."
As soon as he finished speaking, he threw her back down onto the ground.
Guan Mingyue, who was already pitiful, now lay sprawled on the floor. Su Qian didn't even glance at her again and turned to walk towards the entrance.
I stood there dumbfounded, watching the drama unfold and Guan Mingyue crying on the floor. For a moment, I didn't know what to do.
Of course, I didn't dare move. I was afraid that if Guan Mingyue got too angry, she would smash my office. Although there wasn't anything particularly valuable here, many documents were still very important, and I couldn't take them away right now. I could only stand at a distance and watch her.
She cried for about ten minutes; I felt like she could fill a bowl with tears before she slowly got up from the floor. Then she glared at me fiercely and said, "Qiu Yuhan, just wait and see."
That resentful gaze and venomous tone sent a chill down my spine, making me instinctively take a step back as I watched her leave my office.
