Chapter 3
You Have to be Kind
Although some people were led astray by Bai Xue’s pretentious act, there were also people who looked at the problem rationally. Although they felt that Jiang Ling’er was stupid and irritable, it was only directed at Bai Xue.
Previously, everyone thought that their conflict was because of a man. Now, it seemed that it was not the case at all. Bai Xue claimed that she wanted to be good friends with Jiang Ling’er, but after hearing Ling’er’s side of the story, it appeared that Bai Xue was not being sincere at all.
Bai Xue was driven mad by Jiang Ling’er’s words again. However, she reminded herself to keep her emotions in check. Bai Xue took a deep breath and said, “Ling’er, I will return this money to you, but as your best friend, I still have to say that you have to be kind.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said mockingly, “Bai Xue, stop acting in front of me. Who’s the unkind one here? Just because some things are unseen by the public and not said out loud, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.”
Bai Xue clenched her fists. She fought back every urge to reach out to Ling’er and hit her. Calming herself down, Bai Xue said, “Ling’er, you have a deep misunderstanding about me. As for the money, I will think of a way to give it to you as soon as possible.”
Jiang Ling’er sneered and said, “You’re a smart person. If you owe money, you have to pay it back. There’s no need to say more about this. Hurry up.”
Bai Xue smiled but secretly swore in her heart that she would make Jiang Ling’er pay. “Alright, I will do it as soon as possible so that this misunderstanding between us will be resolved as soon as possible.”
Jiang Ling’er didn’t plan to save Bai Xue any face. She said crudely, “Don’t worry. I’ll tear apart your hypocritical mask bit by bit.”
Bai Xue suppressed the rage in her heart and said helplessly, “Forget it. You can say whatever you want. Anyway, no matter what you do, I can forgive you.”
Jiang Ling’er sneered. ‘LOL, this b*tch is still hanging on to her act? No worries, I’ll have my chance to tear apart Bai Xue’s hypocritical appearance sooner or later.’
Bai Xue seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and said gently, “Ling’er, Li Yan will come and pick me up for dinner later. Do you want to join us?”
Jiang Ling’er knew that Bai Xue was trying to infuriate her. She really wanted to take advantage of this opportunity.
Jiang Ling’er immediately said, “Forget about eating. Just return the money to me.”
A hypocritical smile appeared on Bai Xue’s face. She said, “That’s a small matter. My friendship with you is the most precious.”
Jiang Ling’er said sarcastically, “Oh, it’s just a small matter to you, isn’t it? Then return the money to me as soon as possible.”
When some of Bai Xue’s admirers heard Jiang Ling’er’s words, they immediately spoke up for Bai Xue.
“Bai Xue, you’re too kind. It’s fine if you don’t make friends with Jiang Ling’er,”
“That’s right. Look at how mean and petty she is. All she cares about is money!”
“That’s right. It’s just a little money. Is there a need to be so aggressive about it?”
Seeing that others were starting to back her up, Bai Xue seized the opportunity to continue her act. “Everyone, don’t say that about Ling’er. It’s all my fault. If I had been more careful, Ling’er wouldn’t have been so unhappy.”
Hearing Bai Xue and the others echoing each other, Jiang Ling’er didn’t really want to pay attention to them.
“Since all of you are so righteous, why don’t you help Bai Xue pay me back?”
The few people who stood up to defend Bai Xue immediately shut their mouths.
A cold voice suddenly sounded, “Jiang Ling’er, for the sake of your Jiang Family, I’ll give you a chance to apologize to my fiancée.”
Jiang Ling’er felt a sudden chill run up her spine. She frowned and looked over. It turned out that the male protagonist in the book had appeared, and looked so… ordinary.
Bai Xue immediately walked over with a smile and said, “Li Yan, when did you get here?”
Li Yan’s heart ached for his fiancée as he hugged Bai Xue. He said, “If I came even a second later, won’t you be at a disadvantage again and let
someone
take advantage of you?”
Bai Xue’s blushed. She deliberately burrowed into Li Yan’s arms and said shyly, “No, I’m not at a disadvantage. Don’t make things difficult for Ling’er. It’s just a small misunderstanding. It’s fine.”
Jiang Ling’er sneered and said, “Heh, there’s no need for formalities. Hurry up and return the money.”
“Jiang Ling’er!” Li Yan roared in anger.
Jiang Ling’er didn’t care about those things before, but now, she dared to mock Bai Xue in front of Li Yan. She was too bold.
Jiang Ling’er looked at Li Yan coldly and said, “The two of you are truly a match made in Heaven. Both of you like to shout my name. Honestly, it’s my honor that I can make the two of you this excited.”
The crowd was amused. Jiang Ling’er was extremely fierce today!
It wasn’t unusual for Jiang Ling’er and Bai Xue to lash out at each other like this. But this was the first time Jiang Ling’er had ever talked back to Li Yan.
Li Yan’s eyes were filled with shock. Jiang Ling ‘er had changed. Li Yan said in disbelief, “What did you say?”
