Chapter 1276: Fuming to the Point of Smoke Rising from the Head

Qin Yiyan shouted righteously.

Xiao'an's face, however, turned red in an instant!

She felt it was not appropriate to stay at this moment, so she lowered her head and stammered, "I, I'll head out first!"

Liu Xin'ai, however, had a face ashen with anger.

Once Xiao'an closed the door from the outside, she questioned Qin Yiyan: "You did that on purpose, didn't you?!"

Qin Yiyan's words just now were indeed lacking in propriety.

He didn't even know how he had come up with them!

But since the words were already out, he could not take them back, so he could only pretend to be calm and ask: "Which part of what I said was wrong?"

"Regardless of whether it's right or wrong, you... don't you know what privacy is?"

"So-called privacy refers to things one doesn't want others to know. What, do you think the things between us cannot be known by others?"

"That's right, because I find it shameful!"

A single sentence from Liu Xin'ai caused a slightly ambiguous topic to change its flavor entirely.

Qin Yiyan also narrowed his eyes, his lips pressed tightly together.

Liu Xin'ai did not care about what reaction Qin Yiyan had.

She frowned and said impatiently: "Qin Yiyan, can you stop taking your own unhappiness out on others?"

"I didn't mean to cause trouble for anyone, I just wanted to sit quietly for a while!"

"Then go to the study; no one will bother you there!"

"No, it's not cold enough there."

This guy...

He was so perfunctory even when making an excuse!

Liu Xin'ai was truly so angry she couldn't speak.

Seeing her like this, Qin Yiyan actually said: "Why is your temper so irritable today? I haven't even been that angry."

"Hmph, then who was it kicking the railing to vent their anger just now?"

"You want to say it was me? Then which eye did you see me kick it with?"

Qin Yiyan simply refused to admit it to the death.

In any case, Liu Xin'ai did not have eyes on the back of her head.

And Liu Xin'ai...

Was defeated by Qin Yiyan's shamelessness once again!

She clenched her fists, wanting to retort to Qin Yiyan.

But when she met Qin Yiyan's gaze, she discovered that he was staring at her without blinking.

That look... was very strange.

This discovery made Liu Xin'ai calm down a little.

She was still analyzing rapidly in her heart: This guy is acting so abnormally, he is likely trying to deliberately anger her, and then...

Seek psychological balance!

Liu Xin'ai felt that this was the truth.

Since she had discovered the truth, she could not lose her composure and let him make a fool of her!

Thinking this, Liu Xin'ai took a deep breath.

After calming her mood, she picked up a medical book and sat on the single sofa to read.

It must be said that reading really can make a person calm and composed.

Liu Xin'ai slowly calmed her mood and read with great focus.

She did not know how much time had passed before she lazily glanced in Qin Yiyan's direction.

But with just that one glance, she actually discovered...

Qin Yiyan had fallen asleep slumped over the desk!

How did he fall asleep again!?

Does her own bedroom have hypnotic magic?

Liu Xin'ai felt it was strange.

But she did not make a sound; she withdrew her gaze and continued reading her book.

Don't look at how Qin Yiyan was just slumped over the desk.

But he was sleeping very soundly.

If not for a phone call coming in, he probably would have continued to sleep.

Actually, this call was not important; Qin Yiyan patiently gave two instructions and then hung up.

And then...

Only then did Qin Yiyan realize belatedly that he had just fallen asleep!

He found it hard to understand; clearly he was full of worries, so how could he still fall asleep?

Or perhaps...

"Achoo—"

Before Qin Yiyan could make an assumption, he sneezed.

This sneeze made Qin Yiyan complain: "Why didn't you drape a blanket over me?"

Liu Xin'ai did not even move her gaze from the book, her tone very flat: "Who would have thought you could still doze off."

"Because it's cold here, it's very suitable for sleeping."

Liu Xin'ai let out a cold laugh.

She thought to herself that this excuse was truly universal!

However, Liu Xin'ai soon couldn't laugh anymore, and she asked with some nervousness: "You aren't planning on coming back to sleep, are you?"

Ever since the two of them had a falling out, Qin Yiyan had been sleeping elsewhere.

Liu Xin'ai felt that this was very good.

It would be best if the two of them never had the chance to share a bed again!

Qin Yiyan hadn't originally intended to do that anyway, so he just wanted to put Liu Xin'ai's mind at ease.

But seeing Liu Xin'ai's guarded expression, Qin Yiyan felt displeased, frowned, and said: "Rest assured, I have no desire to look at a cold face!"

Although Qin Yiyan's tone was very poor.

Liu Xin'ai didn't care at all, and even felt relieved.

And this reaction of hers made Qin Yiyan's expression even worse.

Just as Qin Yiyan's resentment was building up more and more, a servant knocked on the door and entered.

"Sir, Miss Bai was making a lot of noise in her room just now, but now it's suddenly quiet again; it's very worrying!"

"I know, you all continue to keep watch outside."

"Yes."

The servant left, and Qin Yiyan took out his phone and tapped on an app.

Then...

His phone was actually able to see into Bai Yufei's room!

Liu Xin'ai saw this image and felt a slight sense of astonishment in her heart.

But immediately after, she understood.

So this guy had installed a camera in Bai Yufei's room!

The facts were indeed so.

This camera was installed by people Qin Yiyan had hired while Bai Yufei was not at home.

Because time was tight, only one had been installed.

Next time there was an opportunity, he could install a few more, so that there would be no blind spots.

Qin Yiyan watched Bai Yufei on his phone, sitting on the floor in a daze.

In his ear, however, he heard the woman not far away say coldly: "You really do like prying into other people's privacy!"

These words made Qin Yiyan frown.

Then he turned his head to stare at Liu Xin'ai, emphasizing: "I am only protecting Fei'er!"

"What a righteous excuse, but that doesn't change the fact that you are prying into someone else's privacy!"

"... In extraordinary times, then tell me what I should do?!"

Liu Xin'ai said airily: "I don't know."

"Since you don't know, then don't butt in!"

"I was just stating my thoughts; if you don't allow it, I won't say anything."

After saying this, Liu Xin'ai truly closed her lips and lowered her head to read.

She was completely in a state of being detached from the matter.

Looking at Liu Xin'ai like this, Qin Yiyan only felt a ball of fire burning in his chest!

At this moment, Qin Yiyan was only focused on being angry and didn't even notice that when Liu Xin'ai was by his side, his mood would stabilize.

But this had a prerequisite: Liu Xin'ai had to remain quiet.

Once this woman said something infuriating...

It was truly enough to make someone fly into a rage!

Qin Yiyan had originally wanted to calm down and think carefully about how to resolve Bai Yufei's matter next.

Now, under this woman's veiled criticisms and sarcastic remarks, Qin Yiyan was practically steaming at the top of his head!

Calmly think...

He only wanted to curse at people now!!

Qin Yiyan really couldn't stay any longer; he stood up and left!

He also decided that next time, he would never come to ask for trouble again!

The sound of the door slamming that Qin Yiyan made was a bit loud.

Liu Xin'ai listened, and her heart sank heavily.

But following that, there was a sense of physical and mental relaxation.
