Chapter 1182: Daily Cowardice
Seeing Ning Chen arrive, Huo Jinglin quickly winked and made faces at Lin Yi, trying to grab his attention.
Gu Yanqi also widened her eyes, then looked at Lin Yi, then at that 'Gu Yanqi', smiling very awkwardly.
Although it wasn't her performing the action, the other face was hers; even though she had done nothing, she inexplicably felt as if she were a wife caught cheating by her husband.
A faint awkwardness hung in the air; Gu Yanqi felt an urge to cry. Why make her endure such embarrassment?
Ning Chen, not quite understanding the cause and effect, raised an eyebrow, glanced around, and took in both his real wife and the fake one standing close to Lin Yi.
He moved two steps without showing any emotion, shifted his perspective, and successfully got a clear view of both of their faces.
At that moment, Xiao Han stepped out from the passenger seat, saw the scene, looked at Gu Yanqi sitting on the sofa, and understood what was happening.
He deliberately made a sound: "What is this? Do you have designs on Ning Chen's little wife?"
Xiao Han's sudden words made Lin Yi's brain freeze for an instant; he turned his head in confusion and happened to lock eyes with Ning Chen's half-smiling, half-serious gaze.
A broken string inexplicably connected at that moment; Lin Yi quickly realized the situation. The face he had been observing seemed to belong to Yanqi's younger sister, and the distance he had just kept from Xu Chenchen... really looked like kissing.
Lin Yi, in the same predicament, immediately demonstrated one of his abilities—cowardice.
Lin Yi shot up like someone fleeing a flood or a ferocious beast; during the rush, his leg bumped into the table corner, making him cry out "Ouch!" in pain.
"Brother Ning, I have no bad intentions toward Yanqi's younger sister; you must believe me! I was just, just observing how she changes her appearance."
Ning Chen said nothing, while everyone around was rendered speechless by Lin Yi's frantic explanation. No, if you're going to explain, just explain; don't be so hurried, or it always gives the feeling of a thief with a guilty conscience, hey.
Lin Yi naturally didn't think that deeply; he just wanted to explain quickly, otherwise he felt he might die very badly.
This Xu Chenchen was truly a trap! Why on earth did he have to disguise himself as Yanqi's younger sister!
Because of Lin Yi's crying shout, Ning Chen's temples throbbed; he then looked at Xu Chenchen and said, "Change back first."
With Ning Chen's words, Xu Chenchen immediately nodded, then instantly transformed back into his previous appearance; the speed was so fast that everyone failed to notice the change, knowing only that in the blink of an eye, he had already changed.
Perhaps this could be called the survival speed of a coward?
Xu Chenchen thought, obviously; how could he not see the current awkwardness? If he didn't hurry, what if Ning Chen got angry and refused to take him along? What would he do then?
Ning Chen felt that Xu Chenchen and Lin Yi were, in a certain sense, very similar; perhaps Xu Chenchen was truly another Lin Yi.
"Come with me and show the way." Ning Chen wasted no words, looked directly at Xu Chenchen, and commanded.
Xu Chenchen had no objection to Ning Chen's command; the moment Ning Chen finished speaking, he instantly stood up and walked toward the driver's seat.
"Brother Ning." Gu Yanqi stood up, came to Ning Chen's side, and took his arm.
Ning Chen's eyes were full of tenderness; he patted Gu Yanqi's hand: "I'll go drive first; let Xu Chenchen lead the way. We must get out first."
Gu Yanqi nodded, showing her understanding, and also felt relieved because Ning Chen was not angry with her.
After planting a kiss on Gu Yanqi's cheek, he walked toward the driver's seat.
Completely ignored, Lin Yi's face turned ashen, as if he had suffered some tremendous blow.
