Chapter 125: Jealousy

Xiao Ying ended her research project at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. She had nothing to do for the time being and left the Academy.

She had been to the capital for a long time and hadn’t even gone exploring.

As soon as she went out, she bumped into Zhou Yao, who was dressed casually.

Xiao Ying asked in confusion, “You… are you going out too?”

Zhou Yao was silent as usual and only nodded.

Xiao Ying smiled and said, “That’s good. Let’s go out together.”

The two of them did not drive but took the subway to the city center.

Xiao Ying went to a phone store immediately and bought a phone. She then added a new SIM card.

She turned to ask Zhou Yao, “Do you have anything to buy or want to do?”

Zhou Yao shook his head.

Xiao Ying was a little puzzled. Then why had he come out?

As soon as she installed the SIM card on her phone, she received a lot of messages and missed calls.

Most of the messages were from Cheng Yang.

Xiao Ying did not have time to care about Zhou Yao for the time being. She picked up her phone and called Cheng Yang back.

She had just dialed when she saw a familiar person in a restaurant across the street.

Wasn’t that Cheng Yang?!

Xiao Ying’s call had already gone through, and the person in the restaurant also picked up his phone.

The voice sounded anxious. “Little girl, why aren’t you answering your phone?”

Xiao Ying looked at the woman sitting opposite him and said, “What are you doing?”

Cheng Yang: “I’m working on a business trip.”

Xiao Ying felt a burst of anger.

She said angrily, “Is eating with a woman part of your job?”

Cheng Yang paused with the phone in his hand and looked around.

Xiao Ying had already hung up the phone. She turned around and left angrily, cursing as she walked.

Zhou Yao could only follow.

At this moment, Cheng Yang had already seen the two of them and hurriedly chased after them.

Cheng Yang caught up with her in a few steps and grabbed her. “What are you doing here?”

Xiao Ying was still angry. She said angrily, “If I’m not here, I won’t be able to see you eating with other women. What you said about liking me was all a lie.”

These words stunned the two men.

Cheng Yang couldn’t help but smile. “Are you jealous?”

Xiao Ying paused. Clearly, she had not considered this question.

Cheng Yang smiled even more brightly and dragged her towards the restaurant.

Zhou Yao lowered his head and said nothing as he watched Cheng Yang take Xiao Ying away from him.

When they brushed past each other, the two men looked at each other. Their gazes were not friendly.

Cheng Yang forced Xiao Ying to walk towards the restaurant.

Only then did Xiao Ying see the woman’s face clearly. It was a gorgeous woman with fiery red lips.

So Cheng Yang likes this type of woman.

They were indeed a good match. Xiao Ying sat by the side and watched the two of them chat happily, her heart filling with sour bubbles.

She kept cursing in her heart. This Cheng Yang had a woman he liked and was still provoking her. If he hadn’t done those strange things before, she wouldn’t have become strange like this too.

Cheng Ya looked at the aggrieved girl whose head was lowered and raised an eyebrow at Cheng Yang.

She said silently: How could you target someone so young?

Cheng Yang glanced at Xiao Ying and smiled indulgently.

This smile made Cheng Ya shudder uncomfortably. When had she ever seen her inhuman younger brother smile like this?

She could not help but feel curious about Xiao Ying.

Cheng Yang was very happy that Xiao Ying was jealous over him, but he really couldn’t bear to make her angry.

He stroked her head and said, “This is my sister.”

Xiao Ying instinctively wanted to shake off his hand. She was still angry.

Hearing this, she raised her head in confusion and looked at the woman who was greeting her. She was at a loss.

“Hello, little girl. I am Cheng Yang’s older sister, Cheng Ya.”

Xiao Ying could not think straight. She could only stiffly raise her hand and say, “Hello, Sister. I am Xiao Ying.”
