Chapter 16 - substitute romance 16
The small, clean shop was decorated with flowers and plants, and the smell of desserts and coffee was relaxing and sweet.
Qiao Xi looked unhappy, especially when she saw Qin Yunye personally escorting Yu Huan here and then leaving them alone with an intimate farewell.
How deep are the thoughts of this person who can fake such a deep and loving appearance? Not to mention Yu Huan, if she didn’t know, I’m afraid she would believe it too.
“What is it?
Yu Huan sensed that Qiao Xi seemed to have encountered something.
Qiao Xi was a person who could not tolerate sand in her eyes and did not hide it. She spoke directly, “Do you know that Qin Yunye once had someone she loved but could not be with?
‘You look very much like her.
‘This is her photo, you can take a look at it.
Yu Huan immediately understood that Qiao Xi knew the truth about Qin Yunye being with her. And this happened to be the next step in advancing the plot.
There were not many days left before Meng Chengyi returned to China.
Yu Huan didn’t know what to say, so she put down the cutlery in her hands and listened to Qiao Xi’s revelation of the truth she had known all along.
Finally,
Qiao Xi gave Yu Huan Meng Chengyi’s contact information: “If you have any further questions, you can contact the person in question.
Qiao Xi knew the truth would hurt, but she didn’t want Yu Huan to be left in the dark. At that moment, the false happiness would turn into bubbles the moment the truth was revealed.
Yu Huan’s new task began the moment she took the note with Meng Chengyi’s phone number.
The plot reached the point where the supporting actress knew the truth, and in order to prevent the male lead from being taken away, she deliberately revealed his relationship with the female lead and showed off their affection.
The system came online: ‘Please complete the new task.
Yu Huan,” Qiao Xi called to her gently, “don’t be sad, I’m still here for you.
Yu Huan blinked, “Okay.”

Qin Yunye came to pick up the little girl right on time.
He was in a good mood because they had been separated for a few hours and finally no one could bother them, but he didn’t want the little girl to be angry with him.
She didn’t say a word to him when they got into the car and pushed his hand away when she helped him fasten his seatbelt.
It seems to confirm the saying that ‘girlfriends are the natural enemies of boyfriends’. Whenever the two meet, no good can come of it for the man.
Back at the residence.
Qin Yunye slowly pondered how to coax the little girl, while Yu Huan was already in action, rummaging through the photos in the photo album and adding the female lead’s best friend.
Photo after photo, accompanied by provocative text, was successfully sent.
I’m afraid that in the eyes of the female lead, she has become a very annoying person. It’s all Qin Yunye’s fault for being distracted.
Yu Huan sighed, irritably hugging the lamb puppet she slept with and kissing it indiscriminately.
When the aunt finished cooking, the New Year’s pudding with red beans and honey-glazed teriyaki chicken wings that Qin Yunye had reminded her about were also served.
Qin Yunye knocked on the little girl’s door and called for her to eat.
You can be angry, but you still have to eat.
Yu Huan poked her head out of the door. Qin Yunye hadn’t left. He was waiting for her in a black, slim-fitting shirt, tall and elegant, with the cuffs of his shirt rolled up twice, looking dignified and refined.
He raised his hand to touch her head, but Yu Huan stepped aside and walked past him.
Qin Yunye was taken aback for a moment. Today’s anger seemed to be more serious than usual.
Qin Yunye wasn’t wrong.
During dinner, he picked up the vegetables in the little girl’s bowl. The little girl didn’t touch a bite, but she ate a lot of the red bean soup with rice cakes and honey-glazed chicken wings.
Qin Yunye didn’t react at first, just thinking that the little girl was being difficult and didn’t want to eat the food he had prepared. He was also glad that someone else had prepared the two dishes she liked tonight.
Yu Huan’s stomach had grown round from eating and she moved more slowly when she got up from the table. She couldn’t hold back as she walked upstairs and let out a burp.
Qin Yunye watched her go, and as he looked at the rice and vegetables left in her bowl, he suddenly realised something.
His fingertips hesitantly tapped the table and he suddenly smiled.
It turned out that she was just being fussy, using her anger as an excuse.
–
In the study, Yu Huan was barefoot and reading on the sofa.
Qin Yunye entered and she gave him a quick look.
Seeing that her feet are not cold on the carpet, Qin Yunye says nothing.
Yu Huan then takes advantage of the situation, casually putting down her books and eating fruit without using a fork…
Qin Yunye says nothing, so she becomes increasingly complacent.
Finally, when it was time for her to go to bed, she slipped back to her room and went to bed without taking a shower – she didn’t make it to the bed as Qin Yunye grabbed her by the collar from behind.
Baby,” he reminded her, “don’t forget to take a shower.
Yu Huan turned her head and said with great backbone, ‘I won’t.
The prawns you bought will stink after sitting in the kitchen for a day,’ Qin Yunye said in a calm voice.
Yu Huan’s eyes widened as she tried to argue back, but she was also a little worried that she would really stink if the temperature stayed high today. She sniffed and smelled the odour on her body.
She was barefoot.
Qin Yunye patted her patiently, took her pink bunny slippers and bent down to put them on for her.
It’s hot, the ground is cold, and it’s easy to catch a cold if you go barefoot,” he said.
Having come this far, Yu Huan felt bad about taking her feet away and let him put them on.
Qin Yunye straightened up, not wanting the little girl to be so stubborn any longer, and asked gently, “Why are you angry?
Yu Huan looked at him for a while and said in a subdued voice, “You’re not good.
What have I done wrong? I’ll correct it,’ Qin Yunye said, his head slightly bowed, his gaze focused and sincere.
Yu Huan was at a loss for words.
She couldn’t say that she knew everything and that he only saw her as a replacement.
Her mouth opened and closed, and after holding her breath for more than ten seconds, she finally let out an angry breath and said, “I hate you.
Compared to an accusation, this was more like a petulant child when she was unhappy.
I like you.
Qin Yunye kissed her forehead, tenderly and warmly.
A faint, pleasant aroma of tea approached, and Yu Huan unconsciously tilted her neck back, ready for a kiss.
However, it seemed that Qin Yunye’s kiss on her forehead was only meant to reassure her, and no further action was taken.
So much so that she tilted her face back, but no kiss came.
Qin Yunye froze for a moment, the tremor of a stifled laugh coming from his chest.
So cute.
He thought to himself.
However, Yu Huan was so embarrassed that she pushed him away, kicked off her little pink bunny slippers, and stormed into the bathroom.
Qin Yunye’s smile lingered at the corner of his lips, and his eyes inadvertently wandered to the mobile phone by the bed.
The phone’s screen happened to light up, and the latest message appeared in a pop-up box.
Meng Chengyi?
Which Meng Chengyi?
Qin Yunye picked up the phone that Yu Huan had dropped.
The two of them had played the phone swapping game countless times, and the young girl had never given him any trouble with his phone. So it was only natural for him to look at Yu Huan’s phone.

Meng Chengyi had recently met a very cute girl.
That day, she had just returned home, exhausted, and was lying on the sofa when she noticed the friend request.
She had recently been promoted, and there were already quite a few people who had added her. She casually accepted the request and then, out of curiosity, clicked into the other person’s circle of friends.
Contrary to her prediction of the same old, same old, the contents were some truly beautiful fragments of life.
Meng Chengyi couldn’t help but scroll from top to bottom, looking at each one, and her frown slowly relaxed.
She settled into a comfortable position and couldn’t take her eyes off it, as if addicted. How could there be such a delicate girl in there?
When she flipped to a photo and saw a face that looked a bit like hers, Meng Chengyi’s phone fell onto the sofa.
She couldn’t help but exclaim, “So cute! How could she look so cute? I want to hug her!
Look at that soft little round face. The feel of it in your hands must be amazing. My God, there’s someone who’s grown into her heart.
From this angle she looks a bit like her.
It can’t be her real sister, can it?
Once the thought occurred, it became increasingly uncontrollable.
In the middle of the night, Meng Chengyi couldn’t hold back any longer and called her father, trying every trick in the book to get him to tell her about the illegitimate daughter he had fathered on the side.
Meng’s father was unnecessarily upset and angrily scolded his daughter.
Meng Chengyi took the scolding in stride, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to check her friends’ updates.
Just then, a message from Yu Huan arrived.
