"You mean, Ruoliao might like me now?" Song Xiwei looked incredulous. "That's unlikely. She probably just thinks I'm easy to get along with, and that I was there to help her when she was feeling down..."
“That’s right. You appeared when she needed you most, you comforted her, and it’s only natural that she’s attracted to you.” Xiao Zhuang, as an observer, spoke clearly. “I bet she definitely likes you. Don’t believe me? I’ll test her for you!”
Song Xi frowned slightly. "That's not a good idea."
"If she really likes you, it will definitely cause trouble later if you don't nip it in the bud. You can't just pretend nothing happened," Xiao Zhuang warned.
Song Xiwei: "..." She didn't think she was very charming, so how could someone suddenly transfer their affections to her?
Only Xiao Zhuang would think that way.
“If I’m wrong, then all’s well that way. If I’m right, then you should stop this as soon as possible, Sister Wei,” Xiao Zhuang said, holding Song Xiwei’s hand.
“Alright, as you say.” Song Xiwei agreed, and Xiao Zhuang immediately pulled her down to lie down.
"Later, just pretend to be asleep. Just listen to my conversation with her, but you don't need to respond." Xiao Zhuang had already figured out how to test Ruoliao.
"Hmm." Song Xiwei felt that this was not a good idea, but she did not want any misunderstandings to occur. After all, she was a woman, and if what Xiao Zhuang said was true, it would mean that she had caused Ruoliao a second round of harm after Aoqian.
Xiao Zhuang easily found Ruoliao.
Ruoliao still had an injury on her leg. Xiao Zhuang felt a little guilty seeing Ruoliao rushing over so anxiously, so he helped Ruoliao into the house, where he saw Song Xiwei lying there motionless.
Ruoliao's face was filled with panic. "Are you sure she fell into a coma after wearing the jade pendant I gave her? Did she accidentally ingest anything else...?"
Xiao Zhuang shook his head. "No, she suddenly couldn't stand up after she came back, and then she fainted. I only saw that she had a jade pendant on her. I asked around, but no one knew where she got it, so I went to you to try my luck. I didn't expect that the jade pendant was indeed a gift from you. Is there some special meaning to this jade pendant? Could it be that it conflicted with something in her body? Otherwise, why would she suddenly faint?"
Ruoliao was extremely anxious. "I don't know either. This jade pendant is a family heirloom. I know its effects best. It won't do anything wrong. I sincerely want him to get better..."
"You really have no intention of harming me?" Xiao Zhuang asked suspiciously.
Ruoliao shook her head, her face sincere. "I did have issues with him before, but not anymore. I don't have any feelings for him anymore..."
After a pause, Ruoliao finally spoke, "I won't harm him. I'm happier than anyone else that he can get better. That jade pendant is a family heirloom, and I'm very happy that it can help him. As for me, I do have some feelings for him."
I didn't expect Ruoliao to admit it.
Xiao Zhuang was astonished; he had indeed guessed correctly.
Lying on the bed, Song Xiwei clenched her hands in her sleeves. Xiao Zhuang had really guessed right! Her whole body was stiff and she could hardly lie still.
Xiao Zhuang had already asked what she wanted to ask, and she knew that Song Xiwei had heard her. She said to Ruoliao, "Then the fainting should have nothing to do with the jade pendant. If you want to harm someone, you don't need to give her even your family heirloom."
Ruoliao took a deep look at the unconscious Song Xiwei and said, "I'm going to find my grandfather for help. I'll be back as soon as possible."
After seeing Ruoliao off, Xiaozhuang closed the door and turned around to see Song Xiwei taking the jade pendant off her waist with a troubled expression.
