Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 320: Watching Drama is Always More Fun
He had seen many beautiful girls before, but none that left him momentarily breathless like this one.
The girl was clearly backlit, yet she seemed to be glowing. Her eyes, black and white, were so pure and innocent that they made her appear even more radiant and vibrant. Especially when she smiled, her delicate features outshone the sun.
But it was precisely because she was so stunning that Xiang Yiyang felt a surge of sympathy for his good brother.
"You sure married a beautiful wife," he joked, trying to mask his initial reaction.
With a wife as striking as this, his good brother would have to work extra hard to protect her.
He had seen too many people at the police station who got into trouble because they couldn’t think straight.
"Mm," Qin Kaize responded with a dark expression, a simple grunt.
If he didn’t know that Xiang Yiyang was an upright person, just that one slip-up would have been enough for him to take Jiajia away immediately.
"This is my friend, Xiang Yiyang, the director at the city’s police station," Qin Kaize introduced warmly, looking down at Su Yijia.
"Hello, I’m Su Yijia, Kaize’s wife." Su Yijia extended her hand and smiled gracefully at the man sitting opposite her.
Xiang Yiyang had just reached out his hand when he felt a laser-like gaze suddenly appear beside him. It was as if, if he dared to shake her hand, he would lose it.
"Hello!" Xiang Yiyang greeted her, pulling his hand back quickly without actually making contact.
Then, noticing Su Yijia’s surprised look, he joked, "Kaize is very possessive. If I really touched you, he’d use the excuse of a sparring match to beat me up."
"So you’re a repeat offender?" Su Yijia propped her chin on her hand, tilting her head to look at the man beside her.
Her eyes, shaped like crescent moons, seemed to have caught Qin Kaize’s little secret.
"It’s a habit. This way, I won’t make mistakes," Qin Kaize replied in a calm and gentle voice, with a faint smile.
They weren’t allowed to fight, but when people gathered together, conflicts were inevitable. Sparring became a way to resolve these issues. If you wanted to be in charge in the future, you had to train hard.
Xiang Yiyang, watching their affectionate interaction, felt like an outsider. The air was thick with sweet and sour vibes.
Luckily, Su Yijia and Qin Kaize didn’t linger too long, soon inviting him to join them for a meal.
During the meal, Xiang Yiyang occasionally chatted about amusing stories from when he and Qin Kaize were in the team together, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
After they finished eating, the three of them sat drinking tea or soda. Xiang Yiyang then said, "By the way, Wang Futong is being discharged this afternoon. She requested that we escort her to the ferry, afraid she might be attacked again on the way."
"At a time like this, her husband isn’t picking her up?" Su Yijia asked curiously.
Is Xue Qianhao not even pretending to care?
Before Xiang Yiyang could answer, Qin Kaize awkwardly cleared his throat beside her, "He’s currently lying in the island’s infirmary and can’t get up for the time being."
When he first heard this, he thought Xue Qianhao was trying to make excuses, but it turned out he really couldn’t take a beating.
And his actions had already been noticed by several leaders in the team, who were now very displeased with him.
"Should we go back early this afternoon to watch the drama unfold?" Su Yijia’s crystal-clear eyes sparkled with excitement.
If Wang Futong weren’t returning until the afternoon, she’d be pulling Qin Kaize back now.
It wasn’t just Qin Kaize who found this amusing; even Xiang Yiyang couldn’t help but chuckle.
He raised his hand to cover his mouth, "I think you two might end up being the drama." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Su Yijia tilted her head in confusion.
Xiang Yiyang explained, "That Wang Futong is stubborn as a mule. Even when she was writhing in pain on the bed, she was still cursing you two. This time, she’s going back because she has no choice but to take care of her husband. With the two of them together, she’s definitely going to cause trouble."
He was being quite restrained with his words. In truth, Wang Futong had been viciously cursing his friend’s wife and blaming his friend for being blind and lustful, which led him to act the way he did.
"Is she a donkey? So stubborn!" Su Yijia was genuinely shocked.
She had lived two lifetimes and had never encountered someone so resilient.
Villains in other novels might be bad, but at least they knew when to back down. After a couple of setbacks, they would resort to sneakier tactics. But Wang Futong just kept coming, fighting both openly and covertly until the very end.
"Don’t worry, she won’t be causing trouble for long," Qin Kaize reassured her, gently rubbing the fluffy back of her head.
"Mm?" Su Yijia looked at him, then at Xiang Yiyang, noticing that both of them seemed to have a plan.
"We’ll send her off on the 6 PM ferry," Xiang Yiyang provided a precise time.
This time was also specifically chosen by Qin Kaize. The ferry would arrive around 6:15 PM, just as everyone was getting off work--perfect timing for a spectacle.
"Thanks, then we’ll take the 5 PM ferry back, just in time to have dinner and have the energy to enjoy the show," Su Yijia said, not at all worried that she might come across as being unkind in Xiang Yiyang’s eyes.
They had planned this out so meticulously; if anyone were to be considered unkind, it would be them.
After finishing their meal, Qin Kaize took Su Yijia back to the courtyard. Xiang Yiyang had work to do, so they agreed to meet again next time.
In such hot weather, a nap after lunch was a must.
Entering the space, Qin Kaize worked for a while before cuddling his beloved little girl. They slept until 3 PM and then spent some time reading in the space.
It wasn’t until someone appeared outside the courtyard that they quickly came out.
Ming Xinlu opened the door and placed two boards on the steps outside the courtyard before pushing a tricycle full of things inside.
