Rebirth of a Fashionista: This Life Is Soo Last Season

Chapter 108 - Fan Club Established

Sheng Jiaoyang walked out of the washroom and saw Zhang Yue standing in the hallway with his head lowered.

"Were you waiting for me?" she asked doubtfully.

"Yeah." Zhang Yue was a bit uncomfortable. "There's something I really want to know that's not good to ask in front of others. Please don't think that I'm a gossiper."

"What is it?"

"When you fell sick before, the paparazzi took a picture of somebody sending you to the hospital. Was that your boyfriend?" Zhang Yue secretly thought: If she said it wasn't, then he'd ask her if she had a boyfriend or not. If she doesn't...

"Yep."

Zhang Yue was startled and forced an embarrassed smile, trying to be casual by playing it off, "Wow, he really is, haha. I didn't know that you had a boyfriend."

Sheng Jiaoyang also secretly felt upset about the topic. She was currently tied together with Shen Zhining and she couldn't find a way to escape it anytime soon. If she found somebody she really liked later, she would miss the chance to be with them.

No way, she had to think of a way to build connections for Shen Zhining and let him know more outstanding people. She refused to believe that there wouldn't be at least one person that he'd like.

The two returned to the room, each with their own problems. Zhang Yue's assistant, who was immersed in eating, didn't discover anything off, but Ning Xiaoruan's heart was thudding heavily the entire time. Did that brat Zhang Yue just confess to his cousin-in-law? From Zhang Yue's appearance, it was probably a failure. However, what did Xu Jiaojiao's absent-minded attitude mean?

The first thing Ning Xiaoruan's brain thought of was a recently popular online phrase: From acting to love. If it was like that, then it explained everything. Xu Jiaojiao had grown feelings for Zhang Yue as they'd acted together, but she didn't want to ruin her relationship with his cousin, so she'd rejected Zhang Yue's confession. However, she was secretly unwilling and guilty, which was why she seemed so worried now. How could Xu Jiaojiao like somebody else though?! It was hard for his cousin to find somebody that he liked; she can't get stolen away now. The whole family was still waiting for his cousin to marry and start a family!

If Sheng Jiaoyang knew Ning Xiaoruan's thoughts, she'd ruthlessly flick his forehead, telling him that something was wrong with his brain and that he urgently needed medical treatment!

After hotpot, they each returned to their hotel rooms to rest.

Ning Xiaoruan, who was still waiting for his cousin's reply, felt especially uneasy. Oh no, Cousin wouldn't get angry if he heard Xu Jiaojiao was eating with another man, right?

After rolling a few times on the bed, Ning Xiaoruan made a call.

"What?" Shen Zhining said coldly when he answered the phone.

"Cousin, did you see my text?"

"I did."

Ning Xiaoruan's eyes widened. "Then, are you angry? Let me tell you, Cousin, although that kid Zhang Yue confessed to Cousin-in-law, she didn't accept it-"

"Next time, don't need to bother me about this," Shen Zhining interrupted Ning Xiaoruan.

"How is this bothering you? Didn't you have me follow Cousin-in-law because you wanted to know what she was doing?" Ning Xiaoruan said. "Cousin, don't strain your relationship with Cousin-in-law because of jealousy. Otherwise, everybody will think that something has happened between you two-"

He hadn't finished speaking when the other side abruptly hung up.

"Did Cousin really get angry?" Ning Xiaoruan thought that his good intentions had actually made things worse and followed the mindset of 'if something happens that he can't fix, find Cousin, and if Cousin's not there, find parents'. Since his cousin was now ignoring him, he immediately called his Mother for advice on his cousin's love crisis.
