Chapter 108 - You Are No Stranger To Me (2)

"Let them talk, Qian. It\'s not like they are really concerned about me. It doesn\'t matter who wins between me and Ye Mingyu to them because both of us are just a sore in their eyes." Su Xiaofei commented as she picked up the fried tofu from her lunchbox and munched on it with glee.

She didn\'t need to starve herself to death now to keep her figure. In fact, in Su Xiaofei\'s opinion, her eighteen-year-old body was too skinny. She hadn\'t decided whether she would join the showbiz industry as an actress, or she would focus on her studies to succeed her mother at Bluemedia.

Lu Qingfeng then arrived, placing a paper bag with a popular jewelry brand printed on it.

"Sorry, I\'m late." He said as he took a seat next to Su Xiaofei. "Katarina said this arrived today, so she had to collect them at the store and bring them here."

"We could have collected them together later instead of asking Miss Katarina to bring it here for us."

Su Xiaofei took the paper bag and fished out one of the black boxes inside. She opened it and let out a low whistle. The pair of silver bracelets inside looked better in person compared to its pictures in the catalogue she saw with Lu Qingfeng.

"What\'s that, Feifei? Is it for any specific occasion?" Xi Qian asked. While Su Xiaofei usually bought a new set of clothes every season, Xi Qian rarely sees her best friend buying any jewelry except if there\'s an occasion that she would attend with her mother.

"No. This is for us, Qian." Su Xiaofei picked up one of the silver bracelets and placed it on Xi Qian\'s left wrist, much to the latter\'s shock.

"Feifei, this…" Xi Qian wasn\'t sure why her best friend was giving her such an expensive piece. Although the design wasn\'t flashy, knowing Su Xiaofei, she had most probably spent a large amount of money on it.

"Qian, do you remember the poison that almost killed me when I was stabbed?" Su Xiaofei asked.

"En?" Xi Qian was confused. She couldn\'t understand what it had to do with this bracelet. "What about it, Feifei?"

"Brother Han said that we could prevent being poisoned if we could test the drinks we\'re about to consume with anything silver. You just need to discreetly let it make contact with this silver bracelet."

Xi Qian blinked at that. She had almost forgotten about that poison had Su Xiaofei not mentioned it today.

"Well, I think it would be useful for you and Lu Qingfeng, but why bother including me?" She raised her left hand and marvelled at how good the bracelet looked in contrast with her slightly tanned skin.

"Qian! How could you say something like that?! You aren\'t a stranger to me."

"It\'s not like that, Feifei! I just don\'t like it when people say that I only befriended you because of this." Xi Qian lowered her hand and leaned her head against Su Xiaofei\'s shoulder.

"Nonsense. Qian is my best friend, no matter what people say. Plus, because you are my best friend, people could target you too. I\'m not taking any risks"

"Okay, I understand." Xi Qian conceded. "So we can only test this on drinks? What about food?" She continued asking as she watched Su Xiaofei gestured to Lu Qingfeng to help her with her bracelet before giving him his lunchbox.

"It would be hard to detect the cold poison if it was incorporated in food. Brother Han said that the cold poison is sensitive to warm temperature, so it\'s most likely to be mixed with cold beverages or alcoholic drinks with ice in them." Su Xiaofei explained.

Once the three finished their lunch, Lu Qingfeng helped Su Xiaofei to hold the books she and Xi Qian borrowed from the library. They made their way to the library, intending to return the books. Xi Qian, whose hands were free, volunteered to hold the bag with their empty lunch boxes.

"The midterms exams won\'t be until next month. Why do you need to borrow so many books?" Lu Qingfeng asked as he checked the title of the books in the bag he was holding.

"Qian is helping me to catch up with the lessons I couldn\'t understand, that\'s why." Su Xiaofei replied as they walked next to each other.

Behind them, Xi Qian stopped in her tracks when she noticed something outside the window of the hallway.

"Hey, Feifei. Isn\'t that Ye Mingyu? Why is she meeting Cai Lin in a place like this?" She said, grabbing both Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng\'s attention.

The two stopped walking and followed her gaze outside. The library could be found on the third floor of the faculty building, which was just a couple of meters away from the basketball court. Indeed, just as Xi Qian said, they found Ye Mingyu talking to Cai Lin in low voices.

The place they were meeting was hidden from public view. Cai Lin received something from Ye Mingyu and had shyly accepted it while scratching his nape, a blush creeping on his face. Seeing them meeting like this, were they hiding from Feng Xue\'er?

Su Xiaofei laughed behind her hand, while Lu Qingfeng\'s cold gaze remained on Ye Mingyu.

"Oh, no. Classmate Feng surely wouldn\'t like it if she knew that her new best friend is meeting her fiancé behind her back."

Xi Qian scoffed and shrugged, resuming her walk.

"It\'s her karma."
