Qin Mei didn't respond. Jie Jingchen understood Qin Xiang better than she did.
"Jing Qi, come on out for some roasted duck! I bought your favorite!" Qin Xiang's cheerful voice rang out.
Qin Mei and Jie Jingchen froze. They looked at each other, and Jie Jingchen, reacting in a flash, let go of Qin Mei and dashed out of the room. A moment later, he dragged Qin Xiang inside, and with a SLAM, shut the door.
"Jing Si, what are you doing? Let go, let go! And what are you doing shutting the door in broad daylight? It looks so shady. If my little sister saw this, she'd wonder what's going on between us... Oh, sis, you're in here?" Qin Xiang spotted Qin Mei sitting on the bed and gave an awkward smile.
Qin Mei looked at Qin Xiang, and the thought that he was fated to die made her nose tingle and her eyes well up.
