Little Six paused for a moment, contemplating his words carefully before speaking, “Girls have these little unique traits. I’m sure she loves you very much. Just put in a little more effort and coax her a little more, and you two will be fine again.”
Wang responded with a self-mocking tone, “Do I still need to put in more effort? I’ve already sent a 520 yuan red packet, and she has accepted the money. Then, she informed me that her dorm mate’s boyfriend went a step further and sent ten red packets of 1314 yuan each.”
The corner of Little Six’s mouth twitched as he awkwardly remarked, “Fortunately, I’m not in love. Otherwise, even affording a meal at the canteen would be a challenge!”
Wen Nuan glanced at Little Six, taken aback by his exaggerated statement. The canteen was far from expensive. How could being in a relationship make it unaffordable?
Observing Wen Nuan’s shocked expression, Jiang Ling’er smiled helplessly. Given the Wen Family’s wealth, it was unsurprising that Wen Nuan had no comprehension of financial struggles.
With a pained expression, Wang continued, “That’s not all. She desired a bag, so 1 saved up 20,000 yuan and bought it for her. Yet, she claimed that her best friend had informed her that the bag was outdated!”
Upon hearing this, Little Six expressed surprise, “You truly put in a lot of effort. If it’s already outdated, did she accept it?”
Wang widened his eyes, replying, “Of course she did. Despite being outdated, it remains a luxury item.”
Little Six offered a serious perspective, saying, “This seems like an endless pit. It’s best to halt such excessive spending. Perhaps it’s merely for entertainment. I’m not saying she’s ill-intentioned, but how could she overlook your financial situation? She knows you lack funds, yet you still spend so extravagantly. What does she truly see in you?”
Wang tossed his hair nonchalantly and confidently stated, “Because I’m handsome.”
“Heh, allow me to fetch you a bowl of soup. Take a good look at yourself in it,” Little Six retorted mockingly.
Wen Nuan couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Jiang Ling’er glanced at Little Six and reciprocated the smile. Indeed, Little Six possessed quite the acerbic tongue.
Wang awkwardly looked at Wen Nuan and Jiang Ling’er, pleading, “There are two pretty ladies here. Can’t you show me some respect?”
Little Six smiled but remained silent.
At that moment, a girl approached hastily.
Bai Xue approached and exclaimed, “Ling’er, it really is you! 1 thought 1 must have been mistaken.”
Bai Xue’s smile radiated sweetness, capable of charming anyone.
Wen Nuan frowned, questioning Bai Xue, “You’re annoyingly persistent. Why are you still here?”
Jiang Ling’er interjected, “Nuannuan, don’t be angry. We’ve finished eating as well. Let’s pack up the remaining food and leave.”
Wen Nuan nodded and proceeded to wrap the rice in paper.
Deliberately standing in front of Jiang Ling’er, Bai Xue stated, “Ling’er, 1 truly didn’t expect to see you dining in the canteen. Didn’t you claim it was dirty and that you never eat here?”
No one could confirm if Jiang Ling’er had made that statement previously. Bai Xue’s actions were truly tactless. Mockingly, Jiang Ling’er responded, “Don’t you understand the concept of not obstructing others? If I accidentally hurl the plate at your face, don’t cry and accuse me of doing it intentionally.”
Bai Xue’s expression immediately changed. She had intended for Jiang Ling’er to hold the plate and soil her clothing. However, she had not anticipated Jiang Ling’er, this cunning individual, to see through her ploy and call her out on it.
Impatiently, Wen Nuan urged, “Leave quickly. Don’t even consider framing anyone here.”
Bai Xue clenched her teeth in frustration, but outwardly, she appeared wronged. She reluctantly made way.
Jiang Ling’er didn’t spare another glance at Bai Xue. She placed the plate in its designated spot and departed with Wen Nuan.
Observing Bai Xue’s pitiful appearance, Wang couldn’t help but inquire, “Bai Xue, are you alright?”
Bai Xue replied, “I’m fine. Thank you.”
Curious, Wang asked, “Who are those two? Why did they speak to you in such a manner? It seems a bit excessive.”
If Wen Nuan and Jiang Ling’er weren’t attractive, Wang would have assumed they were envious of Bai Xue. However, if it wasn’t jealousy, why did they hold disdain for her?
“No way, you don’t know them?” Bai Xue pretended to be shocked.
Jiang Ling’er was quite renowned in school. Despite her prominent connections and distinctive attire in the past, it was understandable that she might not be recognized now.
As for Wen Nuan, she was the heiress of the Wen Family. While she possessed considerable fame, she maintained a low profile, being chauffeured to and from school. Most people had only heard of her but never laid eyes on her.
Wang awkwardly asked, “Judging from your words, I should know her?”
“Ok, listen up.” Bai Xue said mysteriously. “The one who scolded me was Miss Wen. Wen Nuan. You’re familiar with the Wen family, right? The other person was Jiang Ling’er, the daughter of the Jiang family.”
“Jiang Ling’er?” Wang exclaimed in shock.. “You mean the exceptionally foolish Jiang Ling’er?”
