Chapter 311 Not needed!

Seeing a stranger in the dormitory, Huang Xin asked, "Who are you?"

Shen Xuewei placed the book on the table and was taking her bag out of the cabinet when she saw them return. She then introduced them:

“You’re back. This is my friend Xu Yue, who came to visit me at school. She’ll stay in the dorm for a little while, and we’ll head out soon.”

"Xu Yue, these are my two roommates. This is Huang Xin, and this is Lu Jiayi."

Xu Yue greeted them warmly, "Hello, I'm Weiwei's good friend. It's nice to meet you all."

She was strikingly beautiful and very polite, so the two men had a good first impression of her.

"Alright, then Yue and I will go out to eat first, bye-bye."

"Bye-bye..." Huang Xin and Lu Jiayi waved and watched them leave.

Once the person was out of sight, the two immediately began their discussion.

"See that? Weiwei treats her differently than she treats us. She's smiling so happily at her friend, she's so biased..."

Lu Jiayi waited until she finished speaking before smiling and saying:

"Alright, let's not worry about her. Didn't you just say you wanted to eat the bread from that shop on East Street? I'm going out for a bit later, I'll bring it back for you."

"Okay, buy a few more, they're really delicious. When you bring them back, we'll eat them together..."

After leaving school, Shen Xuewei and Xu Yue found a relatively affordable restaurant to sit down and eat.

Shen Xuewei looked at the person she hadn't seen in a long time and asked:

How have you been these past year or so?

This question instantly opened up a floodgate of conversation for Xu Yue.

"Actually, I think it's fine, but you can't help but encounter some awful people. Wow, you wouldn't believe it, there was this group leader who was a real womanizer. The crew asked him to arrange extras, and he took the opportunity to grope them."

"He touched my butt back then, and I slapped him. I haven't gotten another chance from him since. But thankfully, I know other group leaders. And also..."

Shen Xuewei listened quietly to her talk, the good and the bad, everything that had happened to her.

Having said too much, Xu Yue drank a glass of warm water and concluded:

"Although the process was not entirely satisfactory, I do not regret my previous choice."

"Weiwei, I believe in myself. One day, I will definitely be able to make it through."

Her vibrant and upward-looking vitality has been tempered and strengthened by life over the past year or so.

Seeing that she had finished the water in her glass, Shen Xuewei poured her another glass.

"Since you don't regret it, that proves your choice was right. However..."

She paused, then reached for her bag.

Xu Yue pressed down on her hand as she took out the money, "Stop."

She rubbed her temples in annoyance. She had come to celebrate Shen Xuewei's birthday, but Shen Xuewei was offering her money instead. It seemed like the roles were reversed.

“Weiwei, I know you don’t lack money. Although I’ve been away for more than a year and haven’t earned much money, I still have enough to maintain my basic living expenses.”

"If one day I really can't make ends meet, I will definitely ask you for money. But right now, I don't need it."

"Just let me keep this little bit of self-respect. You can't let me be completely crushed."

Shen Xuewei paused for a moment, then withdrew her hand.

"Since you put it that way, then I'll listen to you. Ah Yue, remember, no matter what happens, I'll always be there for you."

Xu Yue rested her chin on her hand, looking at Shen Xuewei with a smile.

"OK."

"Weiwei, when you said that just now, didn't you look just like a domineering CEO?"

Shen Xuewei rolled her eyes at her, "You've been reading too many novels. There aren't that many domineering CEOs in real life. Real-life domineering CEOs are probably in their sixties or seventies, pot-bellied, and can't walk properly..."

Xu Yue is also someone who is attracted to good looks, and her impression of domineering CEOs really did start from novels.

Shen Xuewei's words shattered her fantasy of what a domineering CEO would look like, and she quickly stopped Shen Xuewei.

"Weiwei, stop talking. Leave me with some beautiful fantasies."

Shen Xuewei stopped talking, still wanting more, and urged her to eat.

"Eat something quickly, or it will get cold and won't taste good."

The old friends met and chatted happily, their meal dragging on for an hour before finally ending.

The two walked out of the restaurant hand in hand and strolled slowly down the street.

Shen Xuewei asked her, "How long will you stay in Shanghai this time?"

Xu Yue paused for a moment, then smiled apologetically, "I can only have a meal with you, then we'll walk around a bit more before I head back."

Seeing that Shen Xuewei looked somewhat gloomy and disappointed, she quickly said:

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Weiwei, actually there's something else I wanted to ask for your opinion on."

"What's wrong? Tell me, and I'll give you some advice."

Xu Yue rummaged through her bag and took out a flyer for a plastic surgery hospital.

"This is a plastic surgery clinic recommended to me by a new friend. They said my face isn't small enough and looks big on camera, so I'm thinking of trying this clinic. I've heard it's pretty good; have you heard of it?"

The stunningly beautiful woman, who could easily turn heads and take a second look just by standing there, suddenly claimed that she had a big face and wanted to get plastic surgery. Shen Xuewei thought she had misheard.

She stopped by the roadside, and Xu Yue stopped as well.

Shen Xuewei stared at Xu Yue for a long time, and when she was sure that Xu Yue was not joking, her expression immediately became serious.

"Where did you meet these shady friends? You have a classic oval face. If your face is big, then there aren't many people with small faces."

Xu Yue touched her face uncertainly, hesitating and uncertain, "But..."

Shen Xuewei interrupted her, "No buts. Come on, I'll ask you questions and you answer them."

"Is that friend of yours someone you met when you were working as an extra?"

"Yes, that's right. I met him two months ago when I was working as an extra."

"In the film crew, whose performance was better, yours or hers?"

"It should be me. We both played maids, but later the crew didn't have enough extras, so the assistant director let me play other roles."

"After that, did she start getting close to you more often, and then your relationship improved?"

"right……"

"Then she started bringing up plastic surgery to you, saying that other friends of hers had also had it done at this hospital and that the results were great?"

One question after another was asked, and Xu Yue answered them subconsciously.

As Shen Xuewei's questions became increasingly pointed, Xu Yue finally realized what was happening.

She looked horrified: "Weiwei, you...you mean, she did it on purpose?"

Shen Xuewei snorted forcefully, "A-Yue, you need to be more careful. Don't get sold out and then thank the seller while helping them count the money..."

"When you're out and about, be wary of people who are overly enthusiastic towards you as soon as you meet them. This can help you avoid more than 80% of the trouble."

Xu Yue opened her mouth, recalling everything she had known about that friend over the past two months, only to realize that everything had been foreshadowed.

She lowered her head, like a deflated balloon, her eyebrows and eyes drooping.

"I see."

The two continued walking forward, and Xu Yue hesitated before saying something:

"Weiwei, do you think I need plastic surgery?"

Shen Xuewei's answer was firm and powerful.

"unnecessary!"
