My Amazing Boyfriend Chapter 36
Chapter 36
Zhang Xuanxuan's invitation was her initiative to accept Xue Lingqiao, and it was also a test.
On their way there, Tian Jingzhi was not happy at all. She squinted at Xue Lingqiao, who was attentive while driving. Who is he dressed so handsomely for? pure tl. com is the original translat or, please do not re-post
Before walking into the high-end restaurant, Tian Jingzhi saw that Xue Lingqiao's bow tie was crooked. Thinking of his careful preparation, she softened up and halted Xue Lingqiao, “Wait, your bow tie is crooked.” As she was readjusting his tie, she continued to say: “It's the first time you are going to have a pleasant conversation with your goddess, likewise for me, I haven’t spoken to my malegod. Let's all behave well and not lose any face.”
Xue Lingqiao glanced down at her hand and said lightly, “Don't you think that you are a little too attentive to your good friend's fiancé?”
She was just being polite. What a joke, the outfit she has on now is not as expensive as his.
Tian Jingzhi clicked her tongue, “You don't understand the world of philanthropists, I call this ‘hero meet hero’... Today is our official debut as a pseudo-couple, and possibly the last.”
Tian Jingzhi was anxious when she thought of that viral video.
Xue Lingqiao quickly realized what she was thinking about and immediately diverted her attention, “Don't think about that, look, your hair is a little messy.”
Xue Lingqiao naturally reached out to help her brush the scattered hair. Unbeknownst to them, Zhang Xuanxuan was watching them through a glass window with curious eyes.
In Zhang Xuanxuan's eyes, Xue Lingqiao was gently helping Tian Jingzhi to straighten her hair while Tian Jingzhi was also coquettishly adjusting his bow tie; they were like a pair of lovers deeply in love. Seeing this, her originally uneasy mood eased, and she started to accept Xue Lingqiao in her heart. After all, he seemed to be an upright man.
Pleasant music played in the dimly lit restaurant, and the table had a small candle in the center.
The waiter led Tian Jingzhi and Xue Lingqiao over, Zhang Xuanxuan and Hong Shiguang seated by each other. They were leaning towards one another, whispering something.
Tian Jingzhi waved happily at them: “Xuanxuan, Mr. Hong!”
The waiter was about to help Tian Jingzhi pull the chair, but Xue Lingqiao stopped him: “Thank you, I got it.”
Xue Lingqiao gently helped Tian Jingzhi into her chair, Tian Jingzhi smiled strangely as she internally roared: Xue Lingqiao, tear off your mask! You hypocrite! This lady is going to vomit! All the while, she maintained a smile on her face and gestured her appreciation.
“Let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend, Xue Lingqiao.”
Zhang Xuanxuan nodded arrogantly, but her manners and etiquette were faultless. Hong Shiguang stood up and stretched out his hand towards Xue Lingqiao, “Hello, nice to meet you, I'm Hong Shiguang, Xuanxuan's fiance.”
Xue Lingqiao held his hand, a smile appeared in his deep eyes and the strength on his hand increased. Hong Shiguang wanted to pull away, but found that he couldn't. His smile became a little helpless, so he simply succumbed to his strength and let him hold it.
Tian Jingzhi kicked Xue Lingqiao under the table, you are five hundred years old, not five years old, why are you showing jealousy so obviously!
“Mr. Hong's palms are sweaty, and his heart rate is very fast. Usually, he should have chills, loss of appetite, and general weakness. When he is frightened, he may faint." After he finished speaking, Xue Lingqiao let go of his hand and reminded kindly, “Malnutrition and lack of exercise, a child I taught the day before shared similar symptoms as you.”
Hong Shiguang smiled, “Miss Tian’s help, I signed up for the adult class at your Taekwondo gym, so we may meet often in the future.”
Xue Lingqiao nodded: “Okay, come to me anytime you need help.”
During the meal, Zhang Xuanxuan drank wine while secretly observing Xue Lingqiao. pure tl. com is the original translat or, please do not re-post
She hasn't seen such a man for a long time. He has a gentle temperament, beautiful eyebrows, impeccable etiquette, but his personality is a little cold and he doesn't like to talk much. He helped Tian Jingzhi cut the steak, and subconsciously pulled the napkin to prevent her from getting soup on her skirt. All in all, it seems this is a normal ordeal for him.

Zhang Xuanxuan observed for a long time, before she gradually loosened up and an expression of admiration appeared in her eyes. She clinked Xue Lingqiao’s glass with her glass of wine, and asked with a smile, “I heard that Mr. Xue has been living in Xiaozhi's house. Does Mr.Xue have any real estate in China?”
“Not yet. There are villas from the late Qing Dynasty being renovated at Huxin Island. I am waiting for that property to be available so I can buy it. So now, I am temporarily serving as Xiaozhi’s tenant.”
Zhang Xuanxuan was taken aback: “You two are cohabitating?”
Tian Jingzhi almost choked, and hurriedly explained, “Not cohabitating, I sleep upstairs and Da Qiao sleeps downstairs.”
Zhang Xuanxuan was speechless, “Isn't that the same thing?”
“Only sleeping together is considered cohabitation.” Tian Jingzhi lowered her head and rubbed her hands shyly, “I’m not that kind of person...”
“…”
Zhang Xuanxuan looked at the ancient and endangered animal in front of her, and sighed silently, please, no one meant anything in that manner. Under the dining table, Xue Lingqiao gently kicked Tian Jingzhi, and Tian Jingzhi kicked back, unconvinced.
They looked like young lovers flirting and Hong Shiguang burst out laughing and joked: “Living together is the best way to cultivate relationships, Xuanxuan, do you want to move in with me? Or I'll move to your home?”
Zhang Xuanxuan shrugged disinterestedly, “Forget about it, Mr. Hong.”
Hong Shiguang looked at Xue Lingqiao, “The Huxin Island Mr.Xue just mentioned is a treasure, with amazing feng shui. There are only three houses on the whole island, you have excellent taste.”
Xue Lingqiao expressionlessly nodded, pretending as if he was not a poor ghost.
Tian Jingzhi wanted to roll her eyes so badly. He might have excellent taste, but what else?... A mansion on Huxin Island? HAHAHA, Monster Xue, a poor ghost who can't turn time into cash, do you know how much they cost? 200 million! HAHAHA……
Hong Shiguang went on to say: “But Mr. Xue's more discerning choice is to choose Miss Tian. She had raised a well digging team to dig wells in Africa. The charity I do has always been publicly announced, but Miss Tian is doing it silently. She's the kind of philanthropist I admire most.”
Tian Jingzhi looked at him in shock, “You knew?!”
“Of course, good things will never remain hidden.” Hong Shiguang winked at her, and Tian Jingzhi immediately shook his hands, she excitedly said, “As expected as of the Most Holy Man!”
On the way home, Xue Lingqiao suddenly said to her, “Stay away from Hong Shiguang.”
“Ah?” Tian Jingzhi leaned closer, “...Are you jealous?”
Xue Lingqiao looked her up and down with contempt: “Clinging to your best friend's boyfriend is not good.”
“...”
