Maybe it was a habit from hearing Zhou Youning call out, Xiang Qichen instinctively turned his head to look over.
His cousin looked shocked.
Seeing this, Xiang Qichen felt his ears grow warm and lowered his eyes bashfully.
After all, there were so many people, and... they weren't married yet.
Zhou Huaiyi, seeing through it all, knowing Xiang Qichen was always shy around strangers, spoke up to ease the situation: "Why are you calling him brother-in-law?"
His cousin bit her chopsticks: "I'm just playing around. My brother-in-law is Xiang Qichen! Can't I be proud?"
Zhou Huaiyi: "…Alright, alright, alright!"
The lively morning passed, and after staying a bit longer, Zhou Huaiyi got up to leave with Xiang Qichen.
The afternoon sun was still scorching hot.
The two of them nestled in the cool air-conditioned room, with Xiang Qichen continuing to read "The Da Vinci Code" which he hadn't finished, while Zhou Huaiyi was browsing Weibo out of boredom.
