Chapter 207 - 202: The Male Support Isn’t Brain-Dead
"Miss Zhong, do you not like me?" Su Ruoxi asked boldly and frankly.
Zhong Meiying couldn’t help but laugh internally. It seemed that her earlier judgment was spot on—Leng Junxuan’s girlfriend really had no clue about how these people interacted with each other. Ye Qiu and Leng Junxuan might look like buddies who grew up together, but what intertwined their relationships more than anything were family interests. Often, they just maintained a facade of friendliness. When there were political disagreements or conflicts of interest between their families, they would never settle it with just a simple apology like they did today as if everything was fine.
Asking such straightforward questions like whether she liked her or not was as redundant as pulling down one’s pants to fart. What, if she answered no, would that mean they had to become enemies? If she answered yes, would she have to include her in their social circle?
Even without delving into that, just because of you, my fiancé got his arm injured, and Shuyao was aggrieved. Where do you get the courage to think I would like you?
However, out of basic politeness, these were words that Zhong Meiying would never say, so she maintained a distant smile and replied: "Ms. Su is overthinking it, there’s no such thing."
"Really? That’s great." Su Ruoxi said with surprise, seemingly oblivious to the politeness in Zhong Meiying’s tone. She looked forward to Zhong Meiying, her voice tinged with pleading, "Then, Miss Zhong, could you introduce me to Junxuan’s friends later? I want to get along well with everyone and not worry Junxuan."
Zhong Meiying barely managed to keep her smile. She was wrong—Ms. Su Ruoxi’s greatest asset must be her thick skin. Otherwise, why would she think Zhong would help her?
"Leng Junxuan is outstanding in both family background and abilities among our group, Ms. Su doesn’t need to worry that anyone will make things difficult for you," Zhong Meiying thought that saying this would make Su Ruoxi understand her meaning, but instead, she got it utterly wrong.
