Bu Xianxian’s eyes brightened as if she had found a like-minded person. She immediately chimed in, “Right, right. That’s right. Every time someone says I look like her, I actually don’t feel good about it. Why don’t they say she looks like me? My parents gave birth to me like this, who have I done wrong to?”

Shi Shaochuan laughed dryly. “But the two of you really look very alike. Only your mouth looks different from hers.”

Bu Xianxian remarked frankly, “I can tell that you dislike her a lot, too. Then, you must feel frustrated looking at this face of mine. Forget it, I’ll be going back first.”

She only just turned around when Shi Shaochuan stopped her. “Wait.”

Bu Xianxian’s lips curled into a faint smile. She turned and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Although you and she look alike, you aren’t the same person. I’m very clear about that. Also, your voice and expressions are different from hers. I haven’t treated you as her. Do you know how she talks to me?”

Bu Xianxian shook her head. “No, I don’t.”

Shi Shaochuan replied, “She’s always rude and puts on airs when she talks to me.”

“She’s like that when she talks to me, too,” Bu Xianxian complained. “I can’t stand her either.”

“My car’s parked there. Let’s talk in the car.”

“Okay.”

When she saw Shi Shaochuan’s posh car, Bu Xianxian was certain that he was indeed a rich man.

When they got onto the car, Shi Shaochuan took a bouquet of roses from the back seat and passed it to her. “For you.”

Bu Xianxian took the flowers from him. “Thanks.”

Shi Shaochuan drove the car forward. “Let’s find somewhere to chat. Where do you want to go?”

“Do you dare to bring me to your house?”

“Why won’t I dare to?” Shi Shaochuan immediately replied.

These words were enough to make Bu Xianxian change her impression of this man.

“What exactly is your name?”

“Shi Shaochuan.”

Upon hearing this name, Bu Xianxian seemed to have recalled something. “I think I’ve heard this name somewhere before.”

Suddenly, she recalled the time she had worked with her parents alongside those aunties and uncles. When they were gossiping, she heard them saying that Nick’s brother-in-law used to be Shi Shaochuan…

She seemed to have also heard it on the news before.

She probed, “Don’t tell me you’re Jin Qingyan’s ex-brother-in-law?”

Shi Shaochuan admitted it bluntly. “Yes.”

Bu Xianxian was left speechless. “The wife that you said you had gotten divorced to is really his sister?”

“Didn’t I admit it already? We met through the game too. But after we got married, she slowly revealed her true character. The main problem was that we were incompatible. Of course, we’ve been divorced for a very long time already and she’s also gotten remarried. She even gave me the custody of our child. She has no sense of responsibility as a mother at all.”

Just a few lines from him made Bu Xianxian feel that this man before her was quite pitiful.

When they reached the Shi residence, the workers’ jaws dropped upon seeing Bu Xianxian. Taking a closer look, they realized she wasn’t An Xiaoning and felt even more strange about it.

Nobody in the Shi residence was unaware that their Young Sir hated An Xiaoning the most. Now, what was he doing with someone who looked so alike to her?

Despite being perplexed, nobody dared to voice out their questions.

From the moment Bu Xianxian entered the front door, her eyes did not stop sizing up the interior of the house. As she entered the living room, she found that it was evidently incomparable to the living room in Jin Qingyan’s house. However, in her eyes, it was already on par with a living room in a luxury home.

“Do you want to take a look upstairs?”

Bu Xianxian grinned lightly. “It’s okay, let’s just talk in the living room.”

Shi Shaochuan nodded. “Then, you have a seat first. I’ll make you a cup of coffee.”

“Can’t the maid make it?”

Shi Shaochuan explained, “Wouldn’t it be more sincere if I make it myself?”

Bu Xianxian did not say a word further.

He personally made and served two cups of coffee and passed her a cup. She watched him drink a mouthful of it; Bu Xianxian was evidently very guarded against him. She remarked, “I’ll drink yours.”

Bu Xianxian then passed her cup to him while she drank his.

He could tell as well that this woman was extremely guarded against him.

However, since she was in his territory, how could he not take advantage of her? No matter what, he bought those game equipment sets for her with his own money. He had to get back those costs in some way.

Bu Xianxian thought that since he had drunk it, that cup of coffee should be safe. In reality, Shi Shaochuan was harsh to himself and drugged both cups of coffee. No matter which cup he drank, he would have been drugged as well.

“Why do you hate An Xiaoning?”

“You don’t seem to speak the S Nation language fluently. You’re not a local?”

“I’m not. I was born in N Nation, I came to S Nation not long ago.”

“I see. But aren’t people from N Nation all rather dark-skinned? You look quite fair, though.”

Bu Xianxian smiled awkwardly. “Not everyone there is like that. Anyway, you haven’t answered my question.”

“An Xiaoning was my first wife.”

“What?”

“Don’t you know her? You didn’t know An Xiaoning is my first wife? However, throughout the two years we were married, we never consummated our marriage. It was all because of my disgust toward her.”

“Why does this… seem rather unbelievable to me? The two of you never slept together despite being married for two years?”

“Of course,” Shi Shaochuan grunted. “I already said I hated her.”

“Hahaha.” Bu Xianxian was in an inexplicably good mood. “To think someone hates her to this extent.”

“Then, did you think everyone in this world likes her?” Shi Shaochuan remarked in an indifferent tone. “I never liked her, maybe because she was the woman my grandfather forcefully made me marry back then.”

“Why did your grandfather make you marry her?”

Shi Shaochuan found it hard to explain with a few words. “It’s history already, there’s no point in mentioning it anymore.”

After chatting with him for some time, Bu Xianxian felt hot all over. “Why is the weather so hot?”

“Exactly. I feel hot too.” Shi Shaochuan suggested, “There’s air-conditioning upstairs. The living room is too big, so the air-conditioning doesn’t seem to work too well. Do you want to go upstairs for the air-conditioning?”

“Sure.” At this point, Bu Xianxian found it hard to tolerate it anymore. She was starting to lose her senses as well.

She was then brought upstairs to his bedroom by Shi Shaochuan.

He turned on the air-conditioning and sat beside her, holding onto her hand. “Although you look alike to the woman I dislike, you are who you are. I think you’re great.”

“I think you’re great as well.” Bu Xianxian felt as if a huge ball of fire within her had to be released. Realizing that it was a feeling that had surged within her only after she had drunk the coffee, she asked, “Did you drug the coffee?”

“Yes, I did.”

Seeing how he admitted it in such a straightforward manner, Bu Xianxian questioned, “Why did you…”

“I drank it myself as well.” He could no longer suppress the urge within him as well and pressed her down on the bed, nibbling onto her lips. “Be my girlfriend, alright? I’ll be nice to you.”

Bu Xianxian’s body had already gone weak at this point, and upon hearing him ask her to be his girlfriend, an image of Jin Qingyan’s face actually popped up in her head.
