Chapter 90 We Are Still Enemies
Chapter 90 We Are Still Enemies
Xu Lingjing and Ye Yixian went out, and Jiang Yiqing, a little worried, leaned close to Lu Yuan and asked, "They won't start fighting, will they?"
"Well, that possibility cannot be ruled out."
Lu Yuan nodded, his expression slightly serious, but he wasn't worried.
"Then why don't you go take a look?"
"I believe Ye Yixian won't fight with Xu Lingjing. Even if Xu Lingjing wanted to, she couldn't beat Ye Yixian. So, they won't fight, since they know it's pointless."
By now, Lu Yuan has a good enough understanding of Ye Yixian and Xu Lingjing.
Ye Yixian is not a violent person, and she does not want to use violence unless absolutely necessary.
Xu Lingjing is not someone who doesn't know how to weigh the pros and cons. Facing Ye Yixian, who can take on thugs one-on-one, it would definitely be a loss for her to fight. So how could she, who knows how to control her temper and be ruthless, possibly fight and invite trouble for herself?
"Oh dear! How did things turn out like this?"
Jiang Yiqing sighed deeply, then looked at Lu Yuan and couldn't help but exclaim, "How come so many girls like you?"
"Is that a lot?"
Lu Yuan was taken aback, then gave an awkward smile.
……
Ye Yixian accompanied Xu Lingjing to the KTV, where they stood on the street enjoying the evening breeze that still carried the warmth of the day.
Xu Lingjing had drunk too much, and now the effects of the alcohol were kicking in. A gust of evening wind blew, and she staggered, almost falling over.
Fortunately, Ye Yixian reacted quickly and caught her.
Xu Lingjing bumped into Ye Yixian's arms. Perhaps emboldened by the alcohol, she couldn't control her tongue and mumbled, "No wonder Lu Yuan likes you, you have such big breasts. Has he touched them? Is he particularly satisfied with your figure?"
Ye Yixian blushed, pushed Xu Lingjing away, and said unhappily, "Don't talk nonsense, he didn't touch her."
"Hehe." Xu Lingjing barely managed to stand up, and said self-deprecatingly, "He'll touch me sooner or later, won't he? It's a pity mine isn't that big, otherwise he would definitely continue to like me..."
At this point, a wave of sadness welled up inside her, causing her voice to choke slightly.
"Are you drunk?" Ye Yixian tilted his head slightly and asked in confusion.
"Does being drunk make a difference?" Xu Lingjing looked at Ye Yixian and said indifferently, "I read a book that said being drunk isn't about talking nonsense, but about having the courage to tell the truth. I'm feeling dizzy right now, maybe I'm drunk, so I want to tell you the truth."
Ye Yixian: "What truth do you want to hear?"
"I want to know why Lu Yuan likes you?" Xu Lingjing looked at Ye Yixian, her eyes filled with curiosity and jealousy.
This question stumped Ye Yixian, and in the end she shook her head, "I don't know. He hasn't confessed to me yet, nor has he told me why he likes me."
"Why didn't he confess to you? Aren't you two dating yet?" Xu Lingjing asked, puzzled, but the news also cheered her up a bit.
As long as Lu Yuan and Ye Yixian haven't officially started a relationship, there's still a chance to salvage the situation.
Ye Yixian shook her head again, "Maybe it's not the right time yet. After all, we're still just high school students, and dating isn't our business. It might be more appropriate to talk about these things after the college entrance exams are over in two months."
"Are you so sure he'll confess his feelings to you? Don't you think he's just treating you the same way he treated me before, that it's just a passing fancy and he suddenly fell for another girl?"
"I don't know." Ye Yixian shook her head for the third time, showing no sign of disappointment. "I only know that if he confessed his feelings to me, I would definitely agree to be his girlfriend."
Why?
Xu Lingjing was slightly agitated. What she really wanted to say was "Why?" She was not convinced by this result.
Ye Yixian gave a beautiful smile. "He's very good to me. He appeared by my side when I needed help the most. Without him, I would still be someone who can't get enough to eat or wear, and who is always despised and bullied. He made me feel cared for and not abandoned, so I like him. I want to be his girlfriend and be with him forever."
"Of course, if he doesn't like me that much and doesn't confess his feelings in the end, I won't mind. I will stay with him as a friend and help him when he needs it."
Ye Yixian spoke sincerely, and every word revealed her affection and appreciation for Lu Yuan.
Xu Lingjing was shocked by what she saw and heard, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond.
She fell silent, staring intently at Ye Yixian, trying to find even the slightest hint of insincerity in his micro-expressions, so that her previous cold attitude towards Lu Yuan would not have been wrong.
Unfortunately, Ye Yixian's sincerity was impeccable, and her affection for Lu Yuan was beyond doubt.
For the first time, Xu Lingjing wondered if she had done something wrong.
But what exactly did I do wrong?
Xu Lingjing remained silent for a long time, so Ye Yixian continued, seemingly having completely taken control of the conversation: "Xu Lingjing, you are really beautiful, even more beautiful than the female celebrities in the posters. I believe that Lu Yuan's feelings for you were genuine. You don't need to doubt yourself because of your current situation."
"What you said earlier about my big breasts was just to find something about me that you find more attractive to Lu Yuan than you, so that you can prove that Lu Yuan's sudden change of heart is because I have something you don't."
"But I can tell you right now that I'm inferior to you in every way—looks, figure, grades, family background. I'm like the ugly duckling seeing a swan in front of you."
"Xu Lingjing, you are better than me in every way, and I believe that you will definitely have a better life than me in the future, and that there will be men more outstanding than Lu Yuan who will pursue you."
At this point, Xu Lingjing abruptly flung her hand away, angrily rebuking, "I don't want anyone else to like me, I want Lu Yuan to like me. Since I'm better than you in every way, why doesn't Lu Yuan like me? What kind of magic potion did you give him to make him only see you, to the point that he's driven me out of his world?"
Faced with Xu Lingjing's fury, Ye Yixian remained calm and answered, "Sincerely."
"What?"
The wind was too strong, and Xu Lingjing didn't hear clearly. Or perhaps she did hear it, but thought she had misheard.
Ye Yixian raised her voice: "It's true. He's good to me, and I genuinely enjoy his kindness and am willing to reciprocate. Perhaps my abilities are limited right now, and I can't give him anything, but I will be by his side when he needs me."
"Lu Yuan used to treat you so well, did you ever reciprocate with your sincerity?"
"I……"
Xu Lingjing was speechless for a moment, completely unsure how to answer.
Even if she didn't answer, Ye Yixian could see through her. "Look, you've never reciprocated his sincerity. When he was sad, you didn't care about him, and when he was happy, you didn't share in his joy. Boys don't ask for much; a little care is enough to make them happy."
At this moment, Xu Lingjing realized how she had treated Lu Yuan in the past.
Despite her best efforts to recall, she couldn't find a single moment where she and Lu Yuan laughed happily together, because every time she faced Lu Yuan, she felt repulsed and indifferent.
She could no longer hold back her tears and squatted down, burying her head in her hands and sobbing.
Ye Yixian looked at her quietly, his eyes revealing a compassionate tenderness. He walked over, squatted down, and said to Xu Lingjing, "Maybe your childhood was too smooth. Everyone revolved around you, which made you mistakenly think that Lu Yuan should also revolve around you. But you forgot that Lu Yuan is a real man. He has no obligation to revolve around you. He has his own things to do. Liking you is just something he can do or not do in life."
"And what about you? Is it something you can choose to do or not do if he likes you?" Xu Lingjing looked up and asked, her eyes blurry with tears.
"Too."
Ye Yixian nodded and gently wiped away Xu Lingjing's tears. "If I also like him, then this is something he can do and can do for a long time. Otherwise, it's not."
"Ye Yixian..."
Xu Lingjing looked at Ye Yixian and suddenly felt that Ye Yixian was very different. She seemed to understand why Lu Yuan skipped over so many pretty girls and chose the ordinary Ye Yixian when he didn't like her.
Ye Yixian helped Xu Lingjing to her feet and said calmly, "Alright, you're the birthday girl, don't cry. People will think I'm bullying you if they see you crying."
"Hehe." Xu Lingjing forced a smile and took a half step back. "Ye Yixian, I'm very grateful that you told me all this tonight, making me realize my problem. But let me tell you, I'm even more certain that I like Lu Yuan. Since you two haven't officially started dating, I will work even harder to win Lu Yuan back. You and I... are still enemies."
