Bai Xue’s alluring actions naturally drew Old Wang’s attention. Although he didn’t perceive it as explicitly as the waiter, Bai Xue’s demeanor was undeniably seductive. If Old Wang and Bai Xue weren’t just ordinary friends but lovers, he wouldn’t have held back.
A few minutes later, the waiter returned with their cake and coffee. As he left, he discreetly stole a glance at Bai Xue’s decolletage once more.
Old Wang picked up his coffee, took a small sip, and then frowned as he savored a bite of Black Forest cake.
“Little Xue, what’s going on? Can you tell me?” Old Wang inquired.
Bai Xue stirred her coffee with a troubled expression.
“Brother Wang, I’m truly baffled. Why is Ling’er treating me like this? I’ve always regarded Ling’er as a very close friend.”
Observing Bai Xue’s distressed expression, Old Wang felt his heart ache.
Old Wang replied, “Isn’t it obvious? She’s just envious of you. You’re more exceptional and beautiful than her. Furthermore, the man she adores the most, Li Yan, insisted on marrying you, Bai Xue. Hence, Jiang Ling’er is envious of you. It isn’t strange for her to hate you because of that.”
Bai Xue contemplated this and concurred. When Jiang Ling’er had set her sights on being with Li Yan, she had clung to him without any dignity. Regrettably, Li Yan didn’t even acknowledge Jiang Ling’ er, let alone allow her to get close.
However, Jiang Ling’er seemed to have grown more shrewd now, no longer behaving recklessly and demonstrating intelligence in her actions. Yet, regardless of her transformation, Li Yan still wouldn’t reciprocate her feelings. Bai Xue pouted and stated innocently, “But why is Miss Wen mean to me? I’ve never provoked Miss Wen.”
“Of course, she’s jealous of you!” Old Wang quickly replied. “Don’t think that just because she’s Miss Wen, she’s formidable. How many people genuinely like her? She’s a fierce, flat-chested woman with a strong personality, unlike you. Even though you’re spirited, you still appear adorable.”
Bai Xue beamed with delight.
Bai Xue was elated. She said, “Brother Wang, do you know that Little Six is the second young master of the Chen family?”
Old Wang was dumbfounded. Little Six was the Second Young Master of the Chen family? How could he not have known?
“Second Young Master?” Old Wang inquired. “Which Second Young Master?”
Bai Xue furrowed her brow in confusion and asked, “You didn’t know? Little Six is the second young master of the Chen Group. My goodness, you’re such good friends with him, and you didn’t even know?”
“I really had no idea,” Old Wang said dubiously. “Little Xue, are you certain? Little Six’s allowance is even less than mine. If he were the Second Young Master of the Chen family, wouldn’t he have more money?”
Old Wang pondered for a moment before continuing, “I’ve known Little Six since our first year of high school. We’ve been in the same class and shared a dormitory for three years. Little Six doesn’t carry himself like a Second Young Master, and his shoes are from street vendors. He even eats at the school cafeteria’s food. Besides, most times, Little Six doesn’t join us for meals, not even dormitory meals. How could someone like Little Six be the Second Young Master of the Chen family? However, he’s genuinely a good student.”
Bai Xue was speechless.
Bai Xue didn’t expect to hear this. So, was Little Six miserly? Low-profile, perhaps? Or was he an imposter?
If he were an imposter, then Jiang Ling’er’s invitation to the audition was likely bogus.
Jiang Ling’er had also claimed that she’d attended the audition the previous day. Perhaps that was a fabrication as well. She had even stated that the Second Young Master of the Chen family was present. Seems like Jiang Ling’er had likely been boasting.
Thinking that Jiang Ling’er had no connection to Chen Group, Bai Xue felt significantly more at ease.
Seeing that Bai Xue did not say a word, Old Wang immediately became anxious. “Little Xue, you don’t believe me?” asked Old Wang.
Bai Xue snapped out of her reverie and replied with a smile, “Of course not. I just heard it a few days ago. Little Six didn’t seem to be lying, but I don’t know if it’s true or not.”
Old Wang reassured her, “It must be a family thing. There are many people with the surname Chen. As long as there’s an elder brother in the family, he’ll naturally be the second young master of his family.”
Bai Xue smiled. That’s right, which family didn’t treat their children as young masters and princesses nowadays?
“You’re right,” said Bai Xue.
Old Wang did not want Bai Xue to continue thinking about Little Six.
“Little Xue, don’t dwell on it too much,” Old Wang advised. “1’11 go back and inquire, and then we’ll know whether it’s true or not.”
Bai Xue agreed, “Okay, but once you find out, you have to message me.”
Old Wang nodded confidently, “Don’t worry, I promise to complete the mission.”
Bai Xue beamed with happiness.
Meanwhile, the waiter continued to gaze at Bai Xue, captivated by her charm..
