Time seemed to have stopped at this moment. Guan Qiyou locked his eyes on Xuewei like no one else. Shao Wanting only felt the air condensing. She subconsciously tightened her hand and hooked Guan Qiyou's arm.
Shao Junyan glanced at Xuewei. Her face was pale and her hands were clasped by her sides, still looking extremely nervous. He held one of her hands considerately, but it was so cold. His heart moved and he stretched out his arm.
, gently hugged Xuewei in his arms. Suddenly, a cold gaze shot towards him. His actions successfully attracted Guan Qiyou's attention, and he drew his eyes to him.
This is exactly the result he wants. No matter what kind of thing it is, he doesn't want Xuewei to face it alone.
Guan Qiyou's eyes met with Shao Junyan's in the air. He stared at him coldly, and he stared back at him without any sign of weakness. He hugged Xuewei's slender body tightly in his arms and felt her trembling slightly.
My heart ached.
"Xuewei, are you okay?" Shao Junyan asked softly. He suddenly regretted it. Maybe he shouldn't have agreed to attend the banquet at all. But he had clearly made sure that Guan Qiyou would not come to the banquet.
But what went wrong and why did he appear here?
"I...I'm fine, Junyan, let's...go in!" Xuewei twitched the corner of her mouth and showed a forced smile.
"Xuewei, if you don't want to go in, we'll go back now." Shao Junyan leaned into Xuewei's ear and said softly in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Xuewei shook her head, "It's okay, let's make peace with it as it comes." As she said that, she held Shao Junyan in her arms and gave her a confident smile.
"Okay, I'll accompany you." Shao Junyan stroked Xuewei's soft hair on her forehead, lovingly but firmly.
Holding hands, they walked up the steps, step by step, getting closer and closer to the two people in front of them, and stood directly in front of them.
Xuewei raised the corners of her lips and gave the most indifferent smile. Facing the person in front of her, Shao Junyan nodded to Guan Qiyou gracefully. Guan Qiyou's cold voice then sounded, "Junyan, long time no see. Hello.
"
"Pray for blessings, long time no see. Is everything okay?" Shao Junyan exuded a touch of nobility in his every move, and his voice was calm without any ripples.
The two men's hands were clasped together in the next moment. They were thick and strong, as if they were secretly competing. Neither one was willing to let go first. It seemed that whoever let go first would be the loser.
The atmosphere between the four of them was a bit awkward, and there seemed to be some tension between the two men, with anger on the verge of breaking out.
"Brother, Brother Qiyou, we haven't seen each other for a long time, you guys... what's going on?" Shao Wanting felt something was wrong. She looked at their hands holding each other with exposed veins, and her voice was full of surprise.
"Junyan..." Xuewei held Shao Junyan's hand quietly, looking at him with a pair of clear and pure eyes, as if she had looked into his heart. Her voice was low and soft, as if she was just saying
Let him listen to it alone. He knew her intention. She was still struggling with Guan Qiyou's hand movements, but looking into her eyes, he finally slowly let go of her hand. It was not that he was not persistent enough, but that
It was because he couldn't bear to embarrass her.
"It's nothing Wanting, Qiyou and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I want to see who's physical fitness has deteriorated." Shao Junyan smiled, with an understatement. The moment his two hands separated, he didn't forget to look deeply.
Looking at each other seems to be a tacit understanding, and it also seems to be a challenge.
