Xiya shook her head, her attention drawn to the design drafts on the table.
“Are you working on these design drafts?”
Khan nodded, “Take a look and give me some feedback.”
At his words, Xiya promptly picked up the design drafts and began scanning through them.
“Not bad at all.”
“Then can genius photographer Xiya spare some time to do a photoshoot for my jewelry?” Khan joked.
Xiya tilted up her chin. “Missy’s fee is quite steep, you know.”
“Shouldn’t I get a friend’s discount?” Khan countered playfully.
“Keep dreaming!”
This was the first time they had sat down for a hearty chat since their break-up.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
“It must be the food delivery, I’ll get it.” Khan said.
Upon opening the door, the smile on Khan’s face disappeared instantaneously.
“Why are you here?”
Outside, Daisy felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her joy at Khan’s cold demeanor.
Her lovely smile almost faltered and she replied softly, “Khan, there’s something I want to talk to you about.”
“What a coincidence, you’re here too.”
A cold voice came from behind, and Khan’s handsome face sank.
Daisy looked past him and on seeing the person standing not far away, a hint of surprise and jealousy flashed in her eyes.
Why is she here?
Did they get back together?
No, they can’t. But then what about her?
Xiya slipped her hands into her pockets, watching the two of them calmly.
What a coincidence indeed.
She specifically chose mealtime to ruin her appetite, didn’t she?
Khan turned around, quickly walked over to her, and looked at her nervously, “Don’t get the wrong idea, Xiya. I don’t know how she found this place. I didn’t tell her I live here. And I promise: this place has only ever been entered by me and you.”
Xiya looked up at him, seeing his anxious face, and his dark green pupils filled with warmth. “Did I say something?”
He wouldn’t lie to her, she still knew that much.
Khan looked at her, unable to gauge whether or not she was angry.
“So, are you not angry anymore?”
“Why would I be angry? This isn’t my house.” Xiya said lightly.
Ah, she was still angry.
Khan ran a hand through his hair agitatedly, glancing at Daisy discontentedly. “Daisy, I told you before I moved to Beijing that we should stop contacting each other. How did you end up in Beijing, and how did you know I live here?”
Daisy found them standing together very irksome.
Before she could respond, Khan spoke in a grim tone leaving her feeling wronged. “Khan, I’m sorry. I know that because of me, you and Xiya fell out. I’m here to apologize.”
Xiya eyed her, a derisive smile tugging at her lips.
Could she have chosen a less conspicuous time to come to Beijing to apologize than in the middle of a heavy rain?
Khan frowned. “It’s not necessary, you can go.”
“Khan, I came by taxi, and it’s hard to get one in this area. It’s raining so heavily, can I stay here until it stops?” Daisy asked meekly.
Xiya sniggered. Now that was her real reason for being here, wasn’t it?
Khan didn’t hesitate. “I’ll call a taxi for you.”
He had finally managed to invite Xiya over here. If she were to leave out of annoyance, where would he go to lament?
“Khan, you…”
Daisy hadn’t anticipated his coldness, and she was momentarily at a loss for words.
At this moment, Xiya said indifferently, “Khan, it’s raining heavily outside. Let her stay here until the rain stops and then she can leave.”
On hearing her words, Khan gave her a strange look. “Xiya, you –”
Didn’t she loathe Daisy the most?
Why was she suggesting Daisy stay here?
Daisy also looked at Xiya, her hands tightly clenched in her pocket.
Although she disliked Xiya, she knew whether or not she could stay here depended on her.
“Is there a problem?” Xiya looked at him, and asked.
“Are you sure?” Khan subconsciously grabbed her arm.
“Um-hm.” She nodded.
Khan glanced at her, then at Daisy, and said indifferently, “You can come in.”
Upon hearing his words, Daisy felt a surge of joy and quickly stepped inside.
As long as she could stay here, she was certain she could steal back Khan’s heart eventually.
Hmph, a pregnant woman dared to challenge her!
“I’ll help you to the chair.” Khan extended a hand to help Xiya. She didn’t dodge him and let him lead her.
As she turned around, she caught a glimpse of someone looking rather uncomfortable not too far away, and a chuckle bubbled up inside her.
Since she was so keen on staying, she might as well humor her.
As for whether to deliver the kill, that would depend on her mood.
Watching their retreating figures, Daisy bit her lip, resisting the urge to rush forward and separate them.
With Daisy’s presence, the previously relaxed and harmonious atmosphere between the two had been disrupted.
The three of them sat on the sofa, the atmosphere a bit delicate.
Khan sat beside Xiya, secretly pleased when she didn’t resist him.
“Khan, I feel like having some fruit.” Xiya said softly, rubbing her stomach.
“I’ll get some for you.” Khan immediately stood up.
Daisy watched them from across the room, jealousy gnawing at her.
Although she and Khan had been together before, he had never done something like this for her.
Xiya, this shameless woman, had said earlier she wouldn’t be with Khan, but now she ran right back to him. What a wretch!
As Khan walked towards the kitchen, Daisy attempted to find out, “Xiya, have you and Khan made up?”
Xiya raised an eyebrow at her, “What does it have to do with you whether we patch things up?”
“I…”
“Or are you afraid that if we reconcile, you won’t stand a chance?”
Daisy quickly shook her head, “Xiya, you’re mistaken. I didn’t mean that. I’d be truly happy for you guys if you could reconcile. After all, you guys fell out because of me. Besides, didn’t I tell you last time I stood no chance with Khan?”
“Wrong, we didn’t argue because of you.” Xiya said.
“Xiya, you don’t have to explain, I know I’m the one to blame…” Daisy’s face was full of certainty and a hint of smugness glinted at the bottom of her eyes.
Xiya, unable to take her nagging anymore, interrupted, “Sorry, I think there’s been a misunderstanding. I was saying you’re not nearly important enough to be the cause of our arguments.”
What nerve this woman had to think so highly of herself!
Daisy, enraged, trembled slightly. Gazing at Xiya’s pretty face, she had to fight the urge to rush over and scratch it.

“Xiya, I know you mind that Khan and I were together in the past. But Khan loves you now, so don’t be mad at him anymore and make peace. Okay?” Suppressing her anger, she maintained her understanding facade.
“Enough, you’ve been going around in circles with the same two sentences. I’m getting calluses in my ears listening to you.” Xiya leaned back on the sofa, propping up her head nonchalantly.
