Chapter 86: 86, Are You Male or Female (2nd Update) _1
“Snowball!” Quan Jingwu’s violet eyes darkened slightly, his low voice broiled with a hint of danger.
Animals have sharper senses, and Snowball instantly realised the chilling threat, quickly currying favor by rubbing against Quan Jingwu’s leg with its fluffy tail wagging.
“ARoOO–”
Jingwu’s icy demeanor melted slightly. His pet was his alone, and no one else could hold it.
Jian Qing let go of his hand, knelt down and started to stroke Snowball’s white fur, “Snowball, long time no see.”
Snowball rubbed its head against her hand, its black eyes narrowed in contentment.
Indeed, it was most comfortable when the beautiful lady stroked its fur.
Jingwu was seething with jealousy. He hadn’t been afforded such affection yet.
He grabbed her hand, “My dear, let me show you around.”
Jian Qing followed his lead, heading indoors with him. Having only half enjoyed the pleasurable stroking, Snowball looked at its owner taking away the beautiful woman, a sense of melancholy washed over him.
Upon stepping into the house, Jian Qing felt a hint of surprise. The first thing that crossed her mind was the cold emptiness.
Even with low-key luxurious decoration, no amount of expensive ornaments could hide the chilly solitude pervading the house.
However, this frosty sensation was something she was all too familiar with, suddenly transporting her back to the years following her mother’s death.
“What’s wrong, don’t you like it?” Quan Jingwu lowered his gaze to the woman beside him, a warm glow basking his eyes.
Jian Qing shook her head, “No, it’s just a bit cold and empty.”
Jingwu responded with a smirk, “How about we redesign it to your liking? Or you could move in, then it wouldn’t be empty.”
At his words, Jian Qing chuckled, her gloominess dissipated instantly, “Why do I get the feeling that you’ve been constantly setting traps for me?”
“Really?” Quan Jingwu ruffled her hair, “I’ll go change. Make yourself at home.”
Jian Qing nodded. As soon as he left, Snowball rushed in, its target was clear, it ran straight to Jian Qing’s side.
Here she was, the beautiful lady, back again.
Jian Qing looked down at the snowy wolf nuzzling her leg, a soft smile creeping across her face. She removed her shoes and sat right down on the carpet.
“Snowball, come here.”
Before long, Jingwu came downstairs fully dressed, and seeing Jian Qing with Snowball lounging in harmony, a slight smile danced on his red lips.
Hearing the movement from the staircase, Jian Qing looked up. Her gaze landed on the man’s clothes, causing her to pause.
Why did his clothes look so familiar?
“Why do you keep staring at me? Are you mesmerized by me?” Jingwu walked over to her, kneeled down, and nudged Snowball out of her arms.
Suddenly remembering something, Jian Qing looked down at her own clothes and then turned to him, “Your clothes…”
No wonder she found his clothes so familiar. They were the same style as her leisure wear, just a different color.
She’s wearing white, while he is in black.
Jingwu was satisfied to see them wearing matching clothes. “Couple style, you like it?”
Jian Qing had no words, “…”
Didn’t this man just clear out the entire March collection for men? How else had he managed to pick out an outfit so similar to hers?
“Um…actually, you don’t have to do this. If we appear in public together, others will know what’s happening between us by looking at our clothes. It’d be hard not to speculate.”
“Do you dislike us wearing couple’s clothes?” Jingwu suddenly moved closer, his stunning features taking her breath away.
Jian Qing was speechless, she pushed his chest to create some distance between them, “No, that’s not it. Most of my clothes are exclusive designs by March, and most of them don’t hit the market. So, you don’t need to go out of your way to buy so many clothes from March.”
“Is March a man or a woman?” Jingwu’s violet eyes darkened. This was the only thing he cared about.
March’s brand was global, yet no one knew whether he was male or female. Even when he asked Qiao Yu to look into it, they couldn’t find any information about March.
Jian Qing was helpless, didn’t he get the point at all? “Does it matter?”
“Very much so.” Jingwu nodded.
Jian Qing’s eyes flickered, “A man.”
At her words, Jingwu’s violet eyes deepened. “Have you known him for a long time?”
“Yes, a very long time.” Jian Qing struggled to hold back her laughter.
