Chapter 355: Chapter 355

It seemed she noticed someone staring at her, as Song Xi suddenly turned her head towards Song Qiao, only to sink into a frown when she saw her, "Song Qiao, why is it you?"

The boy who was originally about to pick out a cake for Song Xi also stopped in his tracks upon hearing her voice and turned to look at Song Qiao, then he walked straight back to Song Xi’s side.

Song Qiao, however, remained unfazed, her eyebrows lifted slightly, and a subtle smile tugged at the corners of her mouth, a smile that seemed both mocking and not, "Why can’t it be me? This cake shop isn’t yours, after all."

Running into Song Xi at the cake shop was just too much.

"Song Qiao, you..." Song Xi’s face alternated between shades of red and white as she realized how foolish her earlier question had been. She didn’t know how to retaliate, so she could only glare at Song Qiao with obvious hatred in her eyes.

Seeing Song Xi looking at her like that, Song Qiao felt a wave of helplessness. She hadn’t really done anything to Song Xi, aside from that time when she was so angry with Song Xi that she locked her in the bathroom for half a day; other than that, she couldn’t recall anything particularly excessive she might have done, so it baffled her why Song Xi hated her so much.

This gave Song Qiao a feeling that the hatred seemed to have been misplaced.

After all, it was Song Xi and her mother who destroyed her family and took away her father’s love. If anyone should feel hatred, it should be Song Qiao hating Song Xi. The most update n0vels are published on noⅴelfire.net

When Song Qiao didn’t speak, Song Xi spoke up, "I heard Gu Linyuan is getting engaged. What about it? Song Qiao, your ex-boyfriend is going to get engaged to someone else. Don’t you find yourself rather pitiful right now?"

"The pitiful one is you, not me," Song Qiao replied calmly with a glint of amusement in her eyes, and continued, "Gu Linyuan and I have long since been history. Whether he gets engaged or not has nothing to do with me. Your words are pointless. But you, didn’t you like him too? I thought you would be the one he’s getting engaged to, but it seems not."

Song Qiao was indeed surprised to hear about Gu Linyuan’s engagement.

But looking at Song Xi, she roughly understood the meaning behind her words. Probably, Song Xi thought Song Qiao was still in love with Gu Linyuan and came to provoke her with this talk.

However, as far as Song Qiao was concerned, Gu Linyuan couldn’t stir any emotion in her heart anymore.

She is now... a married woman.

Lu Jingchen, in every aspect, is leagues beyond Gu Linyuan.

"Miss Song, your cake is all packed up," just at that moment, the girl who was packaging for Song Qiao came out, holding a very pretty box in her hands, and smiled slightly at Song Qiao as she spoke.

Song Qiao nodded at her with a smile, then cast a nonchalant glance at the furious and flushed Song Xi, not saying anything further, and headed straight to the cashier.

Song Xi, who had a bellyful of embarrassing words for Song Qiao, hadn’t managed to say them; she was so choked up she couldn’t get them out, her face reddening with anger.

"Xixi..." The boy who had come with her looked at Song Xi concernedly, "What’s wrong? Are you alright?"

Song Xi composed her facial expression, forcing a strained smile, "I’m fine, sorry, I just..."

"You were amazing just now," the boy smiled slightly, his gaze adoringly fixed on her, "This is the first time I’ve seen you dare to fight back like that."
