Chapter 172
Tong Xiyao stared at the boxes then Looked up. She sized up Luo Yibei and Fang Chixia in amazement. “You…”
Fang Chixia looked at Luo Yibei for help.
She really couldn’t understand what he was playing at. He just saw her sending her gift out. If he had just waited for some moments later, maybe nothing would have gone wrong.
In fact, Luo Yibei didn’t think twice that his behavior would cause others to misunderstand.
With just a lance at her, he walked away without any explanation, “I’ll go and accompany uncle!”
When the man departed, Tong Xiyao turned back her gaze to Fang Chixia.
Fang Chixia didn’t know how to explain it, would they believe her if she said they don’t know each other at all?
Feeling anxious, Tong Yan suddenly grinned, “Mom, the gifts of Luo Yibei and Chixia were chosen by me separately. What do you think of your daughter’s choice? Do you like it?”
Fang Chixia was stunned and swept her gaze at her.
Tong Yan just smiled particularly sweet at Tong Xiyao, her eyebrows cocked up. This look of her made it difficult to tell whether she was lying or not.
“Oh, it turned out to be like this!” Tong Xiyao’s doubts seemed to be put down, and went over to chat with other guests.
Tong Yan took this opportunity and dragged Fang Chixia to an empty corner.
“Great Treasure, thank you just now.” Fang Chixia breathed a sigh of relief as she keep up with her steps, her tone much more relaxed.
“Come on, tell me the truth, what’s going on?” Tong Yan took her to the garden and questioned her like a criminal.
Fang Chixia stared back at her guiltily, hesitating whether to confide.
Tong Yan and Luo Yibei actually knew each other and their relationship even seemed close. This was what she found most unexpected!
She’s really against telling anyone of her relationship with Luo Yibei but with her friendship with Tong Yan’s and her close ties with Luo Yibei, concealing it was unlikely.
Fang Chixia decided to come clean with her, “Great Treasure, what I’m about to tell you, promise to keep it secret.”
“Say it!” Tong Yan continued to demand.
Fang Chixia carefully considered her reaction then blurted out, “The object of the marriage I mentioned before, it’s actually, Luo Yibei.”
The jumbled expression on Tong Yan’s face proved her shock.
It turned out to be Yibei!
– With one fact out, she hasn’t digested it yet when Fang Chixia dropped another one, “It’s a hidden marriage, no one knows about it except you.”
That cowed Tong Yan into a frenzy and finally couldn’t calm herself down, “You, You!”
Pointing a finger at her, she very much wanted to come out with something but Fang Chixia pressed her finger back and pushed her into the hall. “All right, let’s talk about this later, let’s go and have a seat!”
Tong Yan glared at her in anger and drew her away with her hands hanging down.
The two entered the banquet hall and found a place to sit down. Tong Yan helped herself with two salads. Sitting on the high chair, she gave her a serious introduction, “The people in the Luo Family are very shrewd. This matter, I don’t think you’ll be able to hide it for long.”
