Chapter 363

Lin Cheng finished speaking, and then looked at Qiao Ying\'s reaction.

Qiao Ying pulled the corners of her mouth, her tone a little embarrassed: "Boss Lin can get any kind of woman he wants, are you sure you\'re not just teasing me?"

Lin Cheng saw that she didn\'t have much of a reaction, so he replied: "It\'s true there aren\'t any other women as capable and clever as Miss Qiao."

Qiao Ying rejected him very quickly: "Boss Lin also saw that I\'m not convenient anywhere right now. It would be better to find someone else to help with this favor."

Lin Cheng didn\'t give up: "If Miss Qiao and Mr. Qin were not yet together, would Miss Qiao be willing to help with this favor?"

Qiao Ying curled her lip and told the truth: "I\'m not that enthusiastic." She picked up the water next to her and took a sip.

Her tone was neither rushed nor slow: "Although I quite like watching the excitement, I don\'t like making myself into a spectacle for others to watch."

With the conversation already at this point, Lin Cheng said: "Alright then. Does Miss Qiao have any friends she can recommend? I can offer good conditions."

Qiao Ying: "No."

Without even glancing at the students around them who were paying attention, she lowered her voice: "I do know a few assassins though. If Boss Lin puts up some money, I could help him solve this once and for all."

Just as Lin Cheng was about to say something, Qiao Ying continued on her own: "I forgot, Boss Lin can commit murder and arson himself."

Lin Cheng raised his hand to stop her, smiling helplessly: "Forget it. Since Miss Qiao is not convenient, I won\'t mention this anymore. Let\'s just eat."

Lin Cheng gently placed the cat on a chair to soothe it. Then he picked up his knife and fork, moving slowly and elegantly, eyes slightly lowered. Even in this ordinary Western restaurant, his every word and action oozed an innate elegance and nobility. The ordinary food on his plate seemed to transform into something high-class.

The cat licking its paws on the chair looked very much like him.

In the time it took to eat a meal, Capital University welcomed yet another unexpected guest. This person had already arrived at the south school gate and was heading towards the Computer Science building. His arrival caused an uproar, attracting students not just from the Computer Science department but even from several neighboring departments. He instantly became the hottest topic of discussion on the school forums and chat groups, replacing Lin Cheng.

Clearly, compared to Lin Cheng this unnamed handsome stranger, the new arrival already had great fame at Capital University and even the entire capital city.

Finally, Lin Cheng finished eating.

As the two of them walked out of the restaurant, Qiao Ying immediately noticed the tall man walking towards them. She glanced at him briefly before withdrawing her gaze to keep talking to Lin Cheng, though she slowed her pace.

Soon, Lin Cheng also noticed the man. He stopped and greeted: "Mr. Qin, long time no see. I trust you have been well?"

After Qin Hanyue reached Qiao Ying\'s side, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand towards Lin Cheng: "Duke Lin."

The two men shook hands.

They were surrounded by students who had come to admire the handsome men.

The students in the restaurant were crowded against the glass.

Lin Cheng withdrew his hand. In a half-joking tone he asked: "Did you make plans to meet Miss Qiao here in advance...or could it be, you came because you heard I was here?"

Qin Hanyue had a polite smile: "The president of Capital University is my teacher and friend. I came to visit him." His gaze shifted to Qiao Ying, his smile deepening. "And to see her as well, while I was here."

No one would believe that.

"Woof!" Fourth Master barked at Qin Hanyue.

"Saks, don\'t be rude," Lin Cheng scolded him lightly.

Lin Cheng scolding the dog, as well as Fourth Master\'s cooperation, made the atmosphere a little strange.

After all, this was a dog that belonged to Qiao Ying\'s owner, one current and one former. It made Qiao Ying\'s boyfriend Qin Hanyue seem like an outsider since the dog didn\'t accept him.

Qin Hanyue\'s expression remained unchanged as he chatted: "Duke Lin came to see Miss Ying? How thoughtful."

Lin Cheng nodded slightly. "To see how she\'s doing." His gaze shifted to look at Saks again as he mimicked Qin Hanyue in a playful mood: "And to see him as well, while I was here." It was as if he was teasing Qin Hanyue.

"I was negligent in my duties as a host last time when Miss Ying was in a coma in C Country. This time no matter what, I must repay Duke Lin for his thoughtfulness in coming to visit her then," Qin Hanyue smoothly took back control. "Let me arrange a hotel right away so we can go over now?"

Lin Cheng: "Miss Qiao and I have already eaten."

Of course Qin Hanyue knew they had eaten, otherwise he wouldn\'t have been able to find them so accurately.

Qin Hanyue: "Then I\'ll have to wait until next time."

Lin Cheng: "Next time. Miss Qiao was quite considerate, we ate very happily just now." As he said this, he looked at Qiao Ying.

Though his expression didn\'t change, Qin Hanyue thought to himself: Does this guy just talk like this, or is he doing it on purpose?

He nodded slightly. "That\'s good then."

Even as he spoke, he naturally reached out to hold Qiao Ying\'s hand.

Lin Cheng didn\'t react at all to Qin Hanyue\'s display of possessiveness, as if he hadn\'t even seen it.

The students gathered around to watch, however, were not so nonchalant about it.

Lin Cheng said to Qiao Ying: "Then I\'ll take Saks and the others back and stop disturbing Miss Qiao\'s classes."

Qiao Ying held out the leash towards Lin Cheng.

But before she could hand it over, Qin Hanyue took it from her hand instead and passed it to Lin Cheng himself: "Here you go, Duke."

Lin Cheng took it. "Goodbye."

Qin Hanyue watched as Lin Cheng led the dogs away. Turning back, he saw Qiao Ying looking at him with an expression like she was watching a show.

"Going to see President Zhang now?" she asked, moving to withdraw her hand so he could go.

"Next time," Qin Hanyue said, grasping her hand tightly so she couldn\'t pull away.

Qiao Ying: "I still have homework to do."

Qin Hanyue: "Do it later. I\'ll do it for you."

Qiao Ying watched him leisurely.

Qin Hanyue: "I haven\'t eaten yet."

Qiao Ying: "I\'ve eaten."

Qin Hanyue: "Then keep me company while I eat."

Qiao Ying didn\'t reply, looking as if she was considering it.

Qin Hanyue looked at her with laughter in his eyes. "Let\'s go."

Holding her hand, he led her back to the restaurant. This ordinary little restaurant was honored to receive the favor of two VIPs and gained some fame from it.

Qin Hanyue held the menu, long legs elegantly crossed under the table which didn\'t have enough space, making him angle sideways into the aisle. Dressed in a fine suit, he looked less like he was reading a menu and more like perusing some precious contract.

Seemingly casually, he asked as he browsed: "What did you eat just now?" Lin Cheng seemed to have enjoyed it a lot.

Qiao Ying sat up straight, flipped through his menu for him, pointed out two pages, then sat back watching the gathered students outside.

This old man really knew how to attract attention.

Qin Hanyue turned to a page. Smiling, he asked her: "There\'s a couple\'s set meal here, think you can still eat it?"

Qiao Ying: "No."

Qin Hanyue: "Don\'t worry, I\'ll eat it myself."

He stubbornly ordered a couple\'s set, not caring whether he could actually finish it or not. After ordering, he asked: "Did Fourth Master miss you?"

Qiao Ying said: "You can just ask directly."

Qin Hanyue: "What did Lin Cheng come to school to look for you for?"

Qiao Ying told him the truth: "He wanted me to go with him to C Country to pretend to be his girlfriend."

Lin Cheng wanted Qiao Ying to pretend to be his girlfriend?

In the middle of pouring some warm water for Qiao Ying, Qin Hanyue\'s hand paused. He immediately looked up at her: "You\'re not joking with me, are you?"

Though his tone didn\'t change, his gaze had.

Qiao Ying was injured and unconscious, staying in his Qin family home, lying in his, Qin Hanyue\'s, bed. From the looks of things, how could Lin Cheng not see what stage his and Qiao Ying\'s relationship had developed to?

What was that guy trying to do?
