BXBX NOVEL Chapter 200 - 200 Your Affection is Really Shallow
No matter how painstakingly she arranged things, Jin Chenye, seemingly oblivious to her feelings, showed no response.
Meng Ziqi was swiftly losing patience.
As soon as she received a call from Jin Lan inviting her over for dinner, she didn’t dare to delay a moment and hurried over immediately.
Jin Chenye was an extraordinarily filial man, particularly as he lived a life dependent on his mother from an early age, he almost always acceded to Jin Lan’s requests.
If he showed no interest in her, then shifting her attempts to Jin Lan was the best option.
“Knock knock ”
“Xuan, are you there? I’m coming in.” As Qin Youxuan exited the bathroom, towel-drying her hair, Meng Ziqi’s voice resounded from outside the door.
Before she could react, Meng Ziqi had already pushed the door open and entered.
“Ziqi, do you need something?” Qin Youxuan stalled in her hair drying, casting a casual glance at the uninvited Meng Ziqi and asking indifferently.
She often refrained from thinking about many things, but that didn’t mean she couldn’t see through them.
She wondered when exactly her supposed good friend started setting her sights on her ex-boyfriend…
“After all these years, you’re still partial to this brand of shampoo.” Meng Ziqi strolled over, gently inhaling, her eyes half-closed. “Do you remember? It was I who recommended this shampoo to you before you went abroad, it’s my favorite. I didn’t expect you to like it so much also.”
“Did you come here to tell me that our tastes have always been so similar, from shampoo to men?” Qin Youxuan answered straightforwardly, shocking Meng Ziqi with her bluntness.
She walked to the sofa, sat down, and patted the space next to her.
She looked up at Meng Ziqi.
Meng Ziqi stood still, pursing her lips.
“I admit, I fell for Ye only after you guys broke up, and I haven’t done anything to betray you…”
“The moment you started liking him, you already betrayed me!” Qin Youxuan abruptly stood up, snatched the towel off her head, allowing her hair to fall loosely over her shoulders.
“Meng Ziqi, can you honestly tell me how much time lapsed between our breakup and my return home? Were you so impatient? You didn’t betray me? Ha..the news about my illegitimate child and wedding made headlines when I just came back, you orchestrated that, didn’t you?”
“I never called him ‘Brother Ye’ with such affection, how can I believe that you only started liking him after we broke up? Your infatuation is so shallow.” Seeing her silent admission, Qin Youxuan laughed sarcastically.
Looking at Meng Ziqi, who had boldly come to confront her, she couldn’t express how she felt.
The hand clutching the towel balled up into a tight fist, teeth gritted.
“Yes, compared to him, my feelings are indeed shallow.” Meng Ziqi’s laugh, chilled by the disdain in Qin Youxuan’s eyes, turned frosty. “You wanted to know when I started liking him, right? It was because of you.”
Meng Ziqi took a step back, her laughter particularly bitter.
“Xuan, do you know how much he cares for you? I have never seen a man like him. Just because you are too lazy to cook, he perfects his culinary skills, whipping up impressive dishes, and tolerates your nitpicking. You don’t realize how harsh you are when you criticize people. I saw him being chastised by you time and time again, yet tirelessly making changes for you, even a simple dish, he strives just to suit your taste. The moment you eat a little extra, his satisfaction mirrored finding a treasure.”
