An Xiulan further said, “But then I thought of another possibility that is to stay platonic best friends for life, then the thought that one day you will marry someone and that girl would be your priority doesn’t sit well with me.”

Han Zixin could not help but smile. This sounds like something she would feel.

She added, “Do you know that you spoiled me so much that I can no longer bear to see any girl taking my place in your life? I know you will say that no one can take anyone’s place and everyone has their own place in their life. My place in your life is #1 and that girl who will be your wife will have it. This possibility makes me go violent. Tell me, how do I agree to be your girlfriend easily when I have so much to think about?”

Han Zixin suddenly chuckled. “Then, don’t agree to be my girlfriend. You can be my wife.”

She hit him lightly on the arm. “Stop being, Silly. That’s not possible.”

“Why not? I know someone who got married to the love of his life when he met her again. He didn’t even wait for this, “Han Zixin said, inwardly pouting.

“Sounds romantic but not realist, “She said with a sigh, “And if we pulled something like that my family will not forgive us.”

No, she was not brave enough to do this. Her mommy would twist her ear if she married anyone without informing home first.

It was at this time that his phone rang, Han Zixin looked at An Xiulan and said, “Ge is calling us. He is inside.”

Apparently, Han Nanxian and Song Xueyun had reached the reserved room while the two of them were talking to each other.

“When did he go inside?” She asked. “I didn’t even see him.”

“We were so lost talking with each other that we didn’t see him. Let’s go, “Han Zixin said. They crossed the road once again to enter the restaurant. As they went in, they met someone familiar once again.

“What are you two doing here?” Lu Xuan asked as he looked at An Xiulan and Han Zixin holding hands together. He raised his brow at the way they were holding hands but he received no answer for it like all the time.

“We can ask you the same, “An Xiulan asked with the same attitude.

“I’m here to meet Xueyun, ” Lu Xuan said. “What about you? Why are you two here when you should be working?”

“We are here to meet Han Nanxian, “An Xiulan replied. Then, something clicked and she turned to look at Han Zixin and pointed out, “You know that those two were together, don’t you?”

Han Zixin didn’t answer. He just met her eyes. It was something he could not answer her.

“Wait, why would they be together?” Lu Xuan asked the two of them. What was happening here? And when did Han Nanxian return? Although he had always known that his sister was in contact with Han Nanxian, he didn’t know when Song Xueyun met that bastard.

“Apparently, I’m trying to set them up, “An Xiulan answered in a duh tone. “Maybe, I will succeed.” She turned to look at Han Zixin and asked, “Did I succeed?”

“Why don’t you ask them?” Han Zixin asked.

“Why would you do this?” Lu Xuan asked. He expressed his opinion a little too early, “I don’t like this one bit.”

“Too bad, I’m not here to please you!” An Xiulan answered, flipping her hair.

“Will it hurt you if you do something right once!” Lu Xuan said. He was pissed at her attitude. What was wrong with her? He could not understand it. “Do you know what kind of man he is? He left her alone all these years without bothering to contact her. He doesn’t deserve her.”

If it was up to her, he would punch the shit out of that bastard. Why did he have to return? Did that bastard even know how much his actions hurt Song Xueyun?

“If Han Nanxian doesn’t deserve her, then who does? Those douchebags that she was dating?” An Xiulan asked, raising her perfectly arched brow, “Or you?”

“We are friends, “Lu Xuan answered.

“Then, keep quiet, “An Xiulan said. “You don’t want her and you don’t want anyone who really loves her to date her either. You will not say a word if she is dating him because it’s none of your business. You have no right to comment on her choices. The same way she never does when you date those non-serious girls.”

Han Zixin looked at the twins who were bickering with no intention of stopping. He pulled out his phone and dialled a number. “Come out. Or these two would pull each other’s hair.”

Gu Shangyan who was eating in peace suddenly received Han Zixin’s call. More than Han Zixin’s voice, he was hearing An Xiulan and Lu Xuan fighting with each other.

“Where are they?” Gu Shangyan asked.

“In the lobby of the same restaurant you are in, “Han Zixin answered and hung up the call.

Gu Shangyan looked at Shen Yue who was entertaining their clients and said, “I will be back in a while. Lu Xuan and An Xiulan are out.”

Shen Yue furrowed her brows but didn’t ask much about it. She saw Gu Shangyan leaving and heaved out a sigh. She wondered what caused him so much worry.

As Gu Shangyan went out, he saw Lu Xuan and An Xiulan arguing with each other. He stood between the two of them and gave both of them a stern look.

In an authoritarian tone, he said, “Enough!”

The two of them stopped arguing and stood straight like two students caught fighting by the teacher.
