Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bai Xue’s eyes brimmed with an unmistakable sense of pride. She harbored no interest in this insipid senior, but fate had intertwined her with Jiang Ling’er’s defender. How could she allow these two to part ways and disappoint that audacious Jiang Ling’er?

“Brother Fa, does your friend hold a fondness for Jiang Ling’er? Is that why he doesn’t like me?” Bai Xue inquired, a hint of vulnerability coloring her voice.

“That’s impossible. Don’t think too much about it,” he reassured.

“Ling’er remains exceedingly amiable,” Bai Xue retorted, a tinge of injustice tinging her words. “She navigates harmonious relationships effortlessly. Else, why would she forge a friendship with Miss Wen?”

Wang’s brows furrowed. “Maybe they’re just superficial friends.”

After all, Jiang Ling’er was a notorious pariah. How could the esteemed Wen Family’s eldest daughter have taken a fancy to her?

Bai Xue narrowed her eyes and asserted, “I can’t help but feel they share an intimate connection. Their camaraderie runs deeper than superficial friendship. Ling’er now basks in Miss Wen’s support, leaving me to face even harder days.”

Wang believed that Jiang Ling’er had faded into obscurity. Yet, Bai Xue’s words cast a new light upon the situation. Indignant, he proposed, “You possess immense kindness, and your boyfriend holds great influence. Why not let him teach Jiang Ling’er a lesson?”

This was the moment Bai Xue had been waiting for. With an air of certainty, she responded, “The Li and Jiang families maintain a close relationship. A fallout between them would be ill-advised. I am already a burden, and 1 wish not to trouble him further. If I can resolve this issue myself, there would be no need to burden him.”

Hearing Bai Xue’s obedient and sensible reply, Wang remarked, “Little Xue, your obedience and pragmatism are truly commendable. A virtuous girl like you deserves protection.”

Bai Xue smiled and humbly replied, “No, I can be selfish as well. When Jiang Ling’er attempted to steal my boyfriend, I risked everything to defend my love. My defense even led some to sympathize with Ling’er, thinking she had been wronged.”

“How can anyone sympathize with a mistress?” Wang expressed his discontent. “Didn’t your friend just claim that Ling’er suffered?” Bai Xue retorted, her voice brimming with grievance. “Your friend must perceive me as the one who bullied Ling’er.”

Wang couldn’t fathom what Little Six was thinking, but he knew Little Six abhorred wrongdoing and would never side with a mistress. “Little Xue, you’re overthinking it,” he reassured.

Still unconvinced, Wang’s skepticism irked Bai Xue. In a self-deprecating tone, she sighed, “Sigh, perhaps I am overthinking. But it saddens me to hear your friend’s words.”

Observing Bai Xue’s crestfallen expression, Wang responded, “Bai Xue, do not despair. Little Six is genuinely a good person.”

Helplessly, Bai Xue replied, “Brother Fa, you possess a kind heart. Of course, I trust you. 1 will go buy some food. Wait for me.”

Before long, Bai Xue returned with the rice, and Wang contributed some vegetables. The main course was a modest steamed bun. Wang questioned, “Why are you eatingso little?”

Bai Xue, wearing a smile, responded, “Look how plump I am. How can 1 indulge in excessive eating?”

“No,” Wang insisted. “If you’re considered plump, then my ex-girlfriend must be a swine.”

Wang didn’t think his words were excessive.

Feigning surprise, Bai Xue exclaimed, “A breakup? Brother Fa, you are such a good man. Why didn’t she cherish you?”

Initially somewhat sorrowful, Wang’s melancholy vanished at Bai Xue’s words. He replied, “It’s nothing. She was merely a gold digger. 1 didn’t like her either.”

Seeking to console him, Bai Xue offered words of solace, “Brother Fa, do not speak ill of her. Girls have their own thoughts. You can coax them. It’s fate that brings two people together. Do not give up or separate easily.”

“I wish she possessed your sensibility,” Wang sighed.

Wang drew a comparison, and Bai Xue beamed with pride. She humbly remarked, “Brother Fa, please don’t paint me in such a favorable light. I can be quite stubborn on certain matters.”

Just then, Bai Xue’s phone rang.

Seeing it was Li Yan calling, Bai Xue deliberately ignored the call and ended it. Apologetically, she said, “Brother Fa, 1 have an urgent matter to attend to. 1 haven’t eaten much of these vegetables, and it would be a waste to discard them. If you don’t mind, please finish them and clean up.”

Wang was taken aback. Was eating the leftovers akin to indirect intimacy? “Alright,” he consented. “I was planning to get more food anyway, so it saves me the trouble. Go on ahead, and attend to your urgent matter.”

Bai Xue handed Wang a business card and said, “Brother Fa, this is my business card. When you find yourself with spare time, share your phone number with

me..”
