"What a coincidence, we run into each other here."

Su Rou watched Lin Ye's expression change from coldness towards her to tenderness towards Su Xi, and felt a pang of jealousy that made her heart ache.

She was ready to use other means to deal with Lin Ye and truly become his woman.

We're just waiting for it to be implemented.

Who knew that Su Xi, that bitch, would show up at this exact moment, completely ruining her plans.

Damn it!

"Su Xi is here too. Let's sit down and have a cup of coffee together." Su Rou was as gentle as ever, and even took Lin Ye's arm, saying sweetly, "Are you alone? Didn't Brother Jingming keep you company?"

Lin was about to shake him off when he heard this and glanced around.

Zhou Jingming was not seen.

This gave Su Rou the opportunity, and she pressed half of her body against him.

She lowered her voice and said, "Su Xi has always treated you as a backup plan; otherwise, she wouldn't have kept things so distant with you all these years."

Lin was slightly angry. "Stop trying to sow discord between us."

Su Rou continued to fan the flames, "If you don't believe me, why don't you try it?"

Lin's body stiffened slightly.

Then Su Rou said, "You cooperate with me and see how she reacts."

Lin has liked Su Xi for so many years, so naturally she doesn't want to be limited to a friendship.

He also wanted to know Su Xi's feelings for him.

Su Rou's words made Lin Ye's heart waver.

Without giving him a chance to think, Su Rou forked a small piece of cake and brought it to Lin Ye's lips, "Brother Lin Ye, try this strawberry cake, it's delicious."

She believed that no matter how magnanimous a man is, he would never want to be friends with a woman he likes.

This was a good opportunity for her to see if she could slip the drug into Lin Ye's coffee.

Lin also looked at Su Xi, who was still smiling at him.

At that moment, he suddenly felt incredibly despicable.

He promised to protect her for life, so how could he team up with others to test her?

Besides, the Su Xi he knew was never a woman who used scheming tactics.

Their relationship, which had been so strong since childhood, was by no means as calculating as Su Rou described.

"Get out." Lin also shook off Su Rou's hand, and the cake fell to the ground.

"Brother Lin, what's wrong?" Su Rou was in pain from the beating, her eyes glistening with tears. She deliberately leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Don't you want to know what Su Xi is thinking?"

"I said get lost, didn't you hear me?"

Lin Ye's expression was indifferent.

Su Rou froze for three seconds, her expression turning pale at a visible speed.

She tried to get closer to Lin Ye, but he didn't give her the chance and distanced himself from her, walking to Su Xi's side.

Su Rou was both annoyed and angry. She had already gone to such lengths, yet Lin Ye was still so indifferent to her.

With a strong competitive spirit and a habit of being flattered, Su Rou couldn't stand such humiliation and stomped her feet in anger as she ran away.

As he passed by Su Xi, he felt an urge to tear Su Xi's face apart.

But she held back.

Lin also disliked her, largely because she used to bully Su Xi when they were children.

If she were to reveal her true nature in front of Lin Ye, Lin Ye would definitely hate her even more.

This plan failed; next time, she's determined to win over Lin Ye.

After Su Rou left, Su Xi tossed her long hair and sat down in the seat next to her.

Why did the Su family suddenly contact you?

Lin also dusted off the dust on his sleeves and sat down. "My mom arranged a blind date for me. The person is Su Rou."

"ah?"

Su Xi was taken aback, "Then what is this...?"

Lin shrugged. "I don't like her."

Su Xi knew, of course, that Lin Ye had no feelings for Su Rou, but she was surprised that Lin Ye would end up in a blind date situation.

"Your mom...is she in such a hurry?"

Lin is three years older than Su Xi, and is indeed of marriageable age.

Lin Ye comes from a privileged background and is popular with women in every way. A man like him is the center of attention, and he is the one who chooses women, not the other way around.

Despite knowing Lin Ye for so many years, she had never seen any other woman by his side besides her.

Su Xi had questioned this issue before, but after accidentally witnessing two men engaging in homosexual acts in a bar, she suddenly understood.

“You and Jingming are already married, how can she not be anxious?” Lin Ye picked up his coffee and took a sip, his tone seemingly casual, yet revealing a depth that Su Xi couldn’t fathom.

She hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "You don't... like women, do you?"

Lin Ye hadn't even finished his coffee when it got stuck in his throat, causing him to cough violently.

Su Xi quickly patted his back, "This is normal. Some people just have different preferences. I don't mind your orientation. If it really doesn't work out, we can be sisters..."

"Xi'er".

Lin looked at her helplessly, "I'm perfectly normal."

Su Xi blinked. "Then why don't you have a girlfriend? Is it because you're too picky and haven't found anyone, or is there someone else in your heart that you can't see the existence of other women?"

"yes."

Lin also suddenly responded.

Su Xi was taken aback.

She asked two questions, and it was unclear which one Lin should answer.

However, she had known Lin Ye for so long, she would surely know if he had someone he liked.

So it's the former.

"I'm quite curious, what kind of woman do you like?" Su Xi looked up at the outside, where Su Rou was standing by the roadside, glaring at her through a window.

She was 100% certain that it was definitely not Su Rou's type.

"Something similar to you is fine," Lin said casually.

Su Xi laughed, "Someone like me won't do. Dr. Lin is more suited to the virtuous wife and loving mother type."

Lin also gave a wry smile.

What he wanted most was something he could never have, even in his wildest dreams.

She used to be a single person and never considered him.

Now that she's married, she's no longer someone he can even dream of.

"Xi'er is indeed not suitable for you." A familiar male voice suddenly rang out.

Su Xi and Lin also turned their heads.

Zhou Jingming's lazy yet roguish pose, with one hand in his pocket and the other holding a cigarette, drew screams from the girls around him.

He really is a playboy.

He can flirt with women wherever he goes.

"Why are you here?" Su Xi was somewhat surprised, not expecting Zhou Jingming to be here.

But this is just too much of a coincidence.

Could it be that he was stalking her?

Zhou Jingming took a drag of his cigarette. "I came here with a friend to discuss business."

Su Xi looked at him suspiciously for several times.

Just then, someone called out to Zhou Jingming from behind, "Young Master Zhou, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now. It's been a pleasure doing business with you."

"It's a pleasure to work with you."

Zhou Jingming also waved to the other party.

Su Xi believed him; it seemed to be a coincidence.
