The Schoolgirl Secret Agent Chapter 278 – Awkward! They’re Occupied Tonight

Chapter 278: Awkward! They’re Occupied Tonight

It was not actually a coincidence. Chen Yubing had eavesdropped on Yun Jian and Yun Yi’s conversation when they were in the music room. Later, at the school gate when Yun Yi told Xu Haozhe to meet at their “old place”, Chen Yubing’s friend overheard it and told her.

There were only a handful of places that Yun Yi and Xu Haozhe frequented. It was impossible for Chen Yubing not to know when she had been admiring Yun Yi secretly.

Therefore, she found her way here.

It was predictable that she had dressed herself up intentionally before coming as chances were high that she would get to meet Yun Yi’s mother today!

Her guess was correct as proven. She did see Yun Yi’s mother, Qin Yirou, and quickly headed for them to greet her.

“Oh, it’s Xiao Yi’s friend from school? Hello, it’s nice to meet you!” Qin Yirou stood up to greet her once she heard that Chen Yubing was Yun Yi’s schoolmate.

It was only normal that Qin Yirou had always been friendly to her children’s friends, treating them as their guests, but Yun Yi made an unnoticeable frown.

“Have you eaten? Would you like to have dinner with us?” Not noticing anything wrong, Qin Yirou asked Chen Yubing warmly.

“Um… wouldn’t that be intruding?” Chen Yubing scanned the table and wore an embarrassed look but she took her seat near Yun Yi anyway.

Honestly, Qin Yirou did not really plan for Chen Yubing to sit for dinner. She was just being courteous. However, she could only go along with her offer when she saw that Chen Yubing actually sat down.

“No, no, make yourself comfortable since you’re Xiao Yi’s friend!” Qin Yirou answered politely with a smile.

Yun Jian did not expect Chen Yubing to be this shameless. Once she turned away, she saw her brother creasing his brows so deep that his frown could probably kill a fly.

The atmosphere did not feel as joyous as it was before Chen Yubing’s presence. Yun Jian could even feel Chen Yubing’s glances of feigned nonchalance toward Si Yi and was immediately piqued.

Yun Jian was right with her instinct.

Chen Yubing had only seen Si Yi after she sat down. His flawless face looked like a sculpturing God had painstakingly carved and molded, anyone would fade in presence sitting beside him. Nonetheless, Chen Yubing had only taken a few extra glimpses. She was well aware that a man like this would not belong to her, so she shifted her gaze back to Yun Yi.

With her addition to the table, everyone picked up their rice bowl and tended to their own dinner, the chatters earlier died down to an extremely awkward ambience.

When dinner was done and they exited the Crystal Rhythm Hotel, Chen Yubing tagged along like a piece of chewing gum on the shoes’ sole. She maintained her position behind Qin Yirou along the way and kept bringing up topics to suck up to Qin Yirou.

“It’s a rare occasion that we get to gather. Should we go shop together? I remember the newly opened Pacific Shopping Mall has a lot of new ranges this season. They’ll fit you just nice! Let’s go have a look?”

Chen Yubing was thinking that every woman was vain. She could please Yun Yi’s mother first and rest assured, Yun Yi would fall for her!

“Uh…” Instead, Qin Yirou frowned and looked at Chen Yubing like she was troubled. Qin Yirou did hear about the new shopping mall in Longmen City that was named the Pacific Shopping Mall. All women were vain, so was Qin Yirou.

Chen Yubing had assumed correctly, but she did not guess something else.

The Pacific Shopping Mall’s rent was expensive, so the shop tenants had also increased their selling price. The cheapest adult clothing cost a few hundred to a thousand yuan each!

The quality and design of the clothes were excellent, certainly, but Qin Yirou had spent a lot on buying everyone dinner tonight. How could she afford it when Chen Yubing was currently suggesting to pick out expensive clothing for her?

“My mom’s occupied tonight. She won’t be able to go.” Just as Qin Yirou was caught in between, Yun Jian spoke up to respond to Chen Yubing without sounding very amiable. After that, she added.

“My brother’s occupied tonight as well.”
