Almost all the girls can feel it. Except for White Jade Radish, all the men’s eyes had intentionally or unintentionally fallen on her. She ignored all this and only looked down as she drank her glass of beer.
Xia Nuan seemed to be more surprised than her as she whispered into her ear, “My gosh, who would’ve thought that Yan Xiao Sha is Xu Qu Qing. The world really is small.”
Because Xia Nuan doesn’t know that Xu Qu Qing likes Jian Chi, Lu Wei Xi could only give her a small smile and didn’t say anything.
Although they’ve only seen each other a few times, Lu Wei Xi can clearly feel that she and Xu Qu Qing are people from two different worlds. In a sense, the environment that she grew up in is the same as Jian Chi's.
That night when they were walking back to University T, Chen Si Ran said with some disdain and envy that Xu Qu Qing and Jian Chi’s family are friends. She also said that the reason Xu Qu Qing always regard herself above her pursuers is that in her heart, she is determined that the person she is going to marry is Jian Chi.
What kind of feeling is this? If she is indifferent when she knows that Yu Mo Ran likes Jian Chi, the existence of Xu Qu Qing had always made her feel inferior.
If it wasn’t because Jian Chi has always shown obvious care towards her, Lu Wei Xi would’ve already begun to doubt herself.
But now, Xu Qu Qing is quietly sitting next to her, drinking beer and not saying a word. She looks lonely, completely different from the image of the girl in her heart.
It seemed as if she could feel Lu Wei Xi’s gaze on her. She looked over and calmly asked, “You’re Eastern Attempt right?”
Xu Qu Qing’s eyes are very calm, calm to the point that there is no hostility. It is completely different from when she last saw her.
“Yes.” Lu Wei Xi doesn’t know what she means so she could only cautiously answer.
Everyone is laughing and joking around. Only in this small corner where the two of them are at is the atmosphere heavy.
Xu Qu Qing turned away and stared at the cup of beer in her hand. “You know, ever since I was little, I have always been sure…..that he will be mine. Even though I know that he doesn’t like me, I have always been sure that we would end up together.”
“I don’t know what I like about him, but I want a man like him, someone every girl couldn’t help but love. I had always changed myself for him, she makes myself better so that I am qualified to stand next to him.”
Maybe it’s because she drank a lot of wine or maybe it’s because of her voice hoarse, but her cheeks began to redden slightly making her look more charming.
Lu Wei Xi looks at her like this and began to doubt herself. Why did Jian Chi not want this bright pearl and instead pick me this insignificant sand?
“Later he went to study abroad and didn’t come back for many years. I was afraid that he would forget about me with time. Because of this, I ran to Ye Fei and asked him about Jian Chi. Ye Fei told me that he recently got into dubbing. Although I don’t know anything about network dubbing, I didn’t hesitate to follow in his footsteps.”
Having said that her eyes drooped as she smiled at herself, “His voice is an innate weapon, and I…..have to practice every day to keep up with him.”
Lu Wei Xi’s fingers hidden under her sleeves began to shake. She suddenly understood how she feels in her disheartened words. It turns out….for him, she was willing to set foot on the same road as him.
It turns out…..a long time ago, there was another girl who was willing to invest herself in this circle for him.
She quickly downed the cup of beer in front of her. Xu Qu Qing’s face got redder and her eyes a little hazier. She put down the glass and turned to look at Lu Wei Xi in confusion, “Lu Wei Xi….what exactly does he like about you? I worked hard for ten years to get his attention but he wouldn’t even spare me a glance. Why….why were you able to get him so easily?
Her voice was low and she sounds to be sobbing. None of her past arrogance was in sight.
This is the first time she saw how fragile Xu Qu Qing is. Lu Wei Xi was at a loss about what to do.
Even though…..she is clearly her love rival, for some reason, every time she is in front of her, despite feeling slightly inferior, Lu Wei Xi couldn’t bring herself to hate her. Perhaps it’s because….she knows Xu Qu Qing is completely different from Yu Mo Ran.
Xu Qu Qing had always been very proud and arrogant and is nothing like Yu Mo Ran who is two-faced.
“Do you know? Ah Chi really likes you…...a few days ago, he told uncle that he wants to marry you.”
Xu Qu Qing is very close to her ear, her voice very low. It’s probably because she doesn’t want anyone else to hear this private conversation.
Lu Wei Xi’s heart jerked, surprised by this information. She suddenly got really nervous, “Jian Chi...he really said that?
Suddenly she thought back to that night when they went out to eat crayfish. On their way back, he said, if she is willing, he can take her back to see his parents at the weekend.
Marriage….had always been far away from Lu Wei Xi. She had always felt that she is still a child and marriage is far away from her.
But…..if that person is Jian Chi…..
“I’ve known him for so many years but this is the first time that I’ve heard him speak to uncle with a humble tone. He said that he will bring you back this weekend so that uncle would not make it awkward for you.”
Her voice crumbled, her words filled with self-mockery, “I like Ah Chi so much….how can I do something he doesn’t like? Since he likes you…..I should support you two.”
Lu Wei Xi felt slightly unbearable. She carefully took out a tissue and handed it to her. For a long time, she doesn’t know how to answer.
Xu Qu Qing softly smiled. She politely received the tissue and thanked her. Then she turned away and no longer looks at her.
