Chapter 28 - 26 Seafood Feast
"Alright, you! Seriously, stop with the lecturing. Cao Yufan is actually pretty good, just a bit wooden. Why not train him up properly and call it a day?"
Li Si didn't take her words seriously. After all, Bai Shasha had said similar things way too many times before, and in the end, hadn't she always reconciled?
"Sis, you make it sound so easy. This isn't some job that gets done overnight. Honestly, Yuejing yesterday was pretty great—not as dashing as Cao Yufan, but he's got humor and charisma on his side. Hey, why don't you talk to your Brother Yin and see if he can set me up? By the way, that Yin Xian guy—you'd better act fast; his hardware and software are top-notch!"
"What are you even saying?! When did I ever call him Brother Yin? Didn't I tell you already? No dating during college—you know that! If you're feeling hot, go cool off somewhere else! Honestly! Some people just don't know when I'm joking. You, might as well just hang yourself on Cao Yufan's tree already." Li Si's cheeks reddened a little, her words turning rather sharp.
"Oh, oh, look who's getting worked up now. I didn't even say anything! Haha, someone's embarrassed and angry—done my research here, springtime feelings blooming, huh?" Bai Shasha laughed so hard it sounded almost ridiculous.
"I'm not talking to you anymore! I've got to head out in a bit!"
"Got it, got it—meeting someone, huh? Heard about it yesterday. Spruce yourself up, don't embarrass me. Ciao!"
"Bye-bye."
Li Si took her now slightly overheated phone away from her ear, unsure of her own emotions. She definitely had some positive feelings for Yin Xian, but it hadn't reached the level of infatuation. Especially when it came to love—her confidence had long dissipated, as had her courage to embrace it.
And besides, he was prime fresh meat, young, vibrant, and brimming with allure, while she, on the surface, could pass as okay but was internally worn out and weary. They were probably not even on the same frequency.
After pondering her thoughts for a while, Li Si noticed Xiao Guai quietly staring at her nearby. She couldn't help but smile, "Little guy, you're the best. Having you means I'm not lonely."
