Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Chapter 273: Chapter 273: Mr. Nalan: For My Little Wife, I’m Willing to Make an Exception

If it weren’t for Nalan Ye Jue’s reminder, Qin Xin would have nearly forgotten about the engagement.

Uh, she suddenly had a bold idea: could she really play dead and escape marriage just once?

However, thinking about the man’s gentlemanly demeanor, she couldn’t bear to use such a petty method to refuse the marriage.

It’s better to clarify things in person.

To avoid the situation where others have already prepared the engagement ceremony, and she’s only saying no then, which would be too late.

Her fingers tapped a few words on the screen, then deleted them.

Ah, refusing someone is really difficult.

Especially refusing such a gentle and elegant man.

Now, recalling how he invited her to watch a movie, lent her his bathroom, even cooked for her, and gave her flowers and chocolates along the way, she felt this man’s gentlemanliness was impeccable.

Even thinking about rejecting him, somewhere in her heart there was a subtle tug.

This tug couldn’t be clearly described in words... Perhaps it’s foreseeing the man’s disappointed look, and she would also feel sad.

Qin Xin rubbed her forehead slightly troubled, repeatedly writing and deleting on her phone.

Ao Xinghao and the others were completely baffled: Who is Sister Xin texting, her expression is so strange, so rare!

Finally.

She finally considered the words carefully and pressed the send button: ”Mr. Nalan, do you have time these days, could we talk in person?”

Neither too close nor too distant, neither overly cold nor overly enthusiastic; should be... acceptable, right?

After a while, she received a reply from the man: ”Okay.”

Then, the man teasingly added another sentence: ”It seems there’s a custom in the empire, not to meet a week before marriage. But for my dear little wife, I’m willing to make an exception once.”

Qin Xin’s face immediately turned crimson.

What kind of divine term is ”little wife”!

When Qin Xin and Nalan Ye Jue arranged the time and place, and looked up, she found everyone at the table wasn’t eating anymore, all staring at her intently.

Those gossiping little looks were almost about to pierce through her phone and expose the man on the other side thoroughly.

Qin Xin pulled her green baseball cap lower, covered her flushed cheeks, and coughed seriously twice: ”Tourette Foundation, let’s name it ’Wish’. May every little Tourette, become a confident little angel.”

Ao Xinghao’s eyes lit up: ”Good, meaningful!”

Song Anjing agreed with both hands: ”I’ll bring Qin Xiaoshuang into the foundation. Xiao Shuang also has this disease, such a brave little angel!”

The last time by Ice Lake, by chance, Song Anjing was deeply impressed by Qin Xiaoshuang—a frail little boy who dared to fight with a few heads taller college senior to protect his sister’s inherited musical instruments, truly gutsy!

Qin Xin was slightly moved, glanced at Song Anjing, and nodded: ”Fine.”

Ao Xinghao glanced at Song Anjing resentfully: ”...”

Feels like they have a secret he doesn’t know.

Jealous! Jealous!

No, he must make a move!

”Sister Xin, to celebrate the founding of our Wish Foundation, and to celebrate the first place in the competition, crushing those idiots from Class 1, I’m treating everyone to a meal! Going to the new trending cafe opened by Galaxy Family!”

Ao Xinghao finished speaking.

Qin Xin pondered slightly: ”Alright.”

Ao Xinghao was just thrilled.

Qin Xin raised her hand slightly: ”You all arrange it. I’ll pay.”

This complete boss vibe immediately extinguished all of Ao Xinghao’s glowing thoughts.

It was the moment Qin Xin was about to leave that she realized, the trending cafe Ao Xinghao booked and the restaurant where she was meeting Nalan Ye Jue were both in Galaxy Family.

Both were set for Friday night!
