Chapter 439: Besties are Meant for Betraying
A sudden thought passed Gu Xie’s mind. It was the only thought that made sense, and he thought about it for a while more. *Since Tong Hua knew about it, Qianshu should have known too. So, this shouldn’t be a huge matter.*
Ye Ling said, “Continue your nonsense and I’ll send you to boarding school.”
Tong Hua instantly put on good behavior.
Shen Qianshu made some black tea and brought out the snacks. She placed them on the fruit plate and brought two large snack plates over. Some of them were made by the chef while some were made by her. Then, the group sat in the greenhouse playing chess and drinking tea.
Shen Qianshu had wanted them to form some strong connections as future husbands of sisters, but Ye Ling and Shen Qianshu were so quiet. The entire time, she was the only one trying to make awkward small talk. Lin Xiaojuan wanted to laugh, and Shen Qianshu could no longer bear with it. “Don’t the two of you have… any common topics to talk about?”
“No.”
“No!”
They said in unison.
“Well, so you two indeed have something in common. So, what were you guys talking about in the study room? It should be a common topic too. Why don’t you talk about it here?”
“We’re done talking about it.”
“Yeah.”
Shen Qianshu looked directly at Gu Xie. “Movie King, our Xiaojuan likes lively men who are humorous and easygoing. You’re so quiet. It doesn’t seem to fit her ideal type.”
With a chess pawn in his hand, Gu Xie looked oddly at Lin Xiaojuan. Lin Xiaojuan’s face was really red.
“Really?” Gu Xie asked.
I am just an innocent victim!
Lin Xiaojuan growled internally. What are besties for? Besties are meant for betraying each other!
“Eh? Qianshu? Isn’t that your type? Your ex-boyfriends are all humorous and lively people who are easygoing as well.”
“Huh? No way, I’ve always loved the quiet ones. I like men with few words.”
“When we were in high school, there was a handsome hunk in school who wanted to pursue you. You haven’t dated Lin Xuan back then. In the end, you didn’t like him, and you complained about it to me. You went to the movies with him, and during the entire four hours, you only spoke ten sentences. Then, you kicked him out of your way.”
“After you became an artiste manager, you have become better at making up stories.”
“How could I make up such a story? Your taste has never been good. See, I said that all those humorous and interesting guys are trash. Luckily, I exposed so many of your exes. Otherwise, you might have gotten married to them.”
“What! When have I ever said that I was considering marriage with them?”
“I was busy that day when Yuan Hui tried to propose to you. Didn’t you ask me for my opinion? You were already asking me for my opinion. Is that not considering marriage?”
“My knee hurts!” Shen Qianshu said. “When Chen Yu tried to pursue you back then, you almost agreed too! He was humorous and romantic, and I was the one who exposed his evil intentions too! Why would you say that I have bad judgment?”
“Weren’t you the one who encouraged me to accept Chen Yu?!”
“What? I told you right from the start that his words could not be trusted and that he’s not a good man!”
“Shu, you are getting better at lying through your teeth!”
Gu Xie and Ye Ling could not continue playing chess. They stared at the two ladies exposing each other’s past romance records, and they felt really intrigued. Shen Qianshu had the face of someone who would attract a lot of men. It was easy to tell that she must have had a lot of past relationships.
Lin Xiaojuan was a mature and beautiful lady with a great figure. She definitely had a lot of pursuers. The two ladies continued exposing one another’s past relationships, and the two men had indeed not known about any of these.
Midway through exposing one another, Lin Xiaojuan and Shen Qianshu realized two pairs of fiery eyes looking straight at them. Lin Xiaojuan looked at Gu Xie while Shen Qianshu looked at Ye Ling.
Gu Xie smiled. “Continue.”
Ye Ling looked expressionless. “Continue.”
