Had he given He Qiya a birthday presents before?
Yin Shaojie hung his arm around the back of Mu Xiaoxiao’s chair and said mildly, “I don’t have any.”
Upon hearing this, the girls around He Qiya looked at one another smilingly before looking at He Qiya. “Qiya wll be really upset if you don’t give her anything.”
He Qiya frowned slightly. “Can you stop spouting nonsense?”
“How is this spouting nonsense? Didn’t Young Master Jie give you a limited edition Chanel bag last year? How can he not give anything to you?”
The girl took a glance at Mu Xiaoxiao deliberately when she said that. She then acted shocked and covered her mouth, “Oh, oh, I forgot that Young Master Jie has a new girlfriend.”
Chanel bag?
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Yin Shaojie.
She wasn’t bothered that Yin Shaojie had given He Qiya presents, but he had never mentioned this before!
Upon hearing this, Yin Shaojie frowned.
Beside them, He Qiya looked a little anxious and didn’t dare look at Yin Shaojie’s eyes.
Mu Xiaoxiao saw that Yin Shaojie was about to speak and she grabbed his arm suddenly, preventing him from speaking.
She said in a playful tone, “Are you hinting that I’m so petty as to not let him give her a present?”
“Aiyoh, we all can understand your feelings. However, in any case, Qiya is the head of the organization department, and can be considered one of Young Master Jie’s capable leaders. Giving her a present should be nothing, right?”Another girl chimed in. Even though there was a smile on her face, her tone sounded as though she were indignant for her friend.
“It’s okay! I’m fine whether I get a present or not. I’m already honored that Young Master Jie is attending my birthday party.” He Qiya spoke out, stopping her friends. She looked a little anxious and was trying to pull them away.
“Qiya, you’re too kind. It’s because you don’t fight for yourself that things are s.n.a.t.c.hed away…”
He Qiya interrupted her hastily and reprimanded gently, “I said, stop talking! Sorry, Young Master Jie, my friend was drinking, so she’s spouting nonsense. Sorry.”
She bowed to Yin Shaojie to apologize.
Yin Shaojie’s handsome face was dark, looking as though he were going to fly into a rage at any moment. The girls felt a little fearful and thus allowed themselves to be dragged away by He Qiya.
After the girls left, Mu Xiaoxiao stared at Yin Shaojie.
Yin Shaojie looked into her eyes and said hastily, “Xiaoxiao, listen to me…”
Mu Xiaoxiao nodded and said, “Alright, explain yourself.”
“I’ve never given her any bags before. I didn’t even know that happened on her last birthday.” Yin Shaojie looked at her, his face serious.
Mu Xiaoxiao said, “Actually… Even if you did given her a Chanel bag, I don’t care. It’s just like that girl said— she’s one of your capable leaders and giving her a present on her birthday…”
Before she could continue her nonsense, Yin Shaojie interrupted her. Staring into her eyes, he enunciated, “I said, I never gave her a bag! Not a bag, not anything!”
“Really?” she asked.
Yin Shaojie locked his gaze on hers, afraid that she wouldn’t believe him. “Do you want me to swear?”
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled. “Alright, I was playing with you. I believe you.”
