Ye Zhiwei kept her head down and didn't speak. She really didn't like Yu Jingchen. Although she was very grateful to Qin Manshu for helping to persuade Jiang Shichu, hearing that Qin Manshu and Yu Jingchen were together and that their families were in frequent contact, she really couldn't muster any desire to continue discussing things with Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi seemed to sense Ye Zhiwei's lack of interest, and after a while, she asked, "I mainly wanted to ask you... about your cousin and Sister Manshu—"
“Sometimes you can’t force feelings. I admit Manshu is excellent and very brave to take the initiative when she likes someone, but that doesn’t stop my cousin from not liking her. Maybe my cousin prefers girls who are less assertive, gentler, or have a cuter personality? Feelings are always complicated. As for what you said about her being with Yu Jingchen,” Ye Zhiwei frowned slightly. She didn’t really want to mention Yu Jingchen, but she had to continue, “Our family and the Yu family do have conflicts, so I definitely don’t think highly of Yu Jingchen. He certainly wouldn’t have a good opinion of me. But I don’t know what kind of person this young master of the Yu family is when it comes to feelings. Qin Manshu is an adult now. Even if she gets together with Yu Jingchen because of her grandmother, and even if she decides to get married in the end, that’s her decision.”
Bai Zhi hesitated for a moment, "I'm just worried about Sister Manshu..."
"Why would I worry about her? Don't you think she's very smart and meticulous in her work? We don't understand her just because we don't know her thoughts. Maybe we should be the ones worrying about ourselves later." Ye Zhiwei said with a smile, "I know you're close to her, and you might be trying to mediate because you get along well with me. You think it might be because of my cousin that she's unhappy and that's causing her to act so irrationally. But she's not a child. She's more mature and has her own ideas than you or me. Even if she really acted irrationally because of my cousin, that's her business. Adults should be responsible for their own choices. Of course, you two are close, and you might think Yu Jingchen is unreliable, so you can advise Sister Manshu. But I have to make one thing clear: this has absolutely nothing to do with my cousin."
Bai Zhi smiled and said, "You're right. I'm sorry, I was just too worried about Sister Manshu. She's always been rational and objective when it comes to relationships. If she wants to give up now, I should respect that."
Ye Zhiwei rested her chin on her hand, paused for a moment, and then said, "That's true, but this Yu Jingchen is really no good."
At the end of the conversation, Ye Zhiwei didn't forget to hurl insults at Yu Jingchen. Thinking about what Yu Jingchen had done before, Ye Zhiwei felt a surge of anger rising in her heart. She still couldn't understand how Yu Shishu could have a brother like Yu Jingchen.
This meal turned into a one-sided nitpicking and insulting session by Yu Jingchen, starting with this topic.
Bai Zhi clearly didn't like Yu Jingchen very much either. Although she couldn't pinpoint exactly what was wrong with him, she subconsciously sensed that he had the potential to be a scumbag.
Ye Zhiwei, resting her chin on her hand, continued, "It's not just the potential of a scumbag, he is a scumbag. I have a feeling about it."
Yu Jingchen was already domineering and morally questionable when it came to Yu Shishu's feelings. Even when Ye Zhiwei and Jiang Jianian were still together, he was already using all sorts of methods to cause trouble, and later on, he didn't care about Yu Shishu's thoughts at all.
Ye Zhiwei launched a comprehensive and thorough critique of Yu Jingchen, whom she called "barbecued pork," and even exposed some of his scoundrel behavior while managing the company, including his past scandals, to prove that this man was indeed "barbecued pork."
After thoroughly berating Yu Jingchen from head to toe, Ye Zhiwei finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ah, that felt so good. It's true that you have to openly criticize certain scumbags to feel happy."
Bai Zhi couldn't help but say, "Then Sister Manshu definitely can't be with someone like that, right?"
"Hey, hey, hey, I didn't say that. What I said was just my speculation. Maybe he's a good person in front of Qin Manshu. Besides, people have two sides. Although this scumbag is mean and unreasonable to us, making us grit our teeth, he is indeed very good to his younger brother." Ye Zhiwei quickly cleared herself of any suspicion of deliberately smearing Yu Jingchen. She concluded her statement, and after finishing the last dessert, she patted her stomach with satisfaction and laughed, "Just be careful not to find a scumbag like him."

Yu Jingchen was unaware that Ye Zhiwei was criticizing him so harshly. At that moment, he was accompanying Qin Manshu to choose a ring. Originally, they were just having dinner together, but when they passed by the luxury goods section of the International Trade Center, Yu Jingchen offered to accompany Qin Manshu to choose a ring.
Qin Manshu wanted to spend more time with him to stall for time, but Yu Jingchen had already hinted at it several times.
He brought it up, so Qin Manshu naturally wouldn't refuse. She probably suspected that Yu Jingchen had done something unpleasant to her. In fact, she had privately found out about the female celebrities that Yu Jingchen was close to.
Someone of Yu Jingchen's status actually dislikes having contact with popular celebrities. Even if the girls around him are in the entertainment industry, he will choose those who are relatively unknown and promise them resources after the breakup.
Qin Manshu had previously inquired about the girl who was with Yu Jingchen and it seemed she quite liked him. Yu Jingchen had also kept this unknown actress around for a while, so they were probably quite satisfied with each other. After finding out all this, Qin Manshu had been arranging for the girl to discover her relationship with Yu Jingchen and to create some trouble through her to buy time. This time, when Yu Jingchen said he wanted to choose a ring, Qin Manshu had already had someone notify the actress in advance, just waiting for the big embarrassment.
But to Qin Manshu's surprise.
After the young actress was notified, she did show her face while the two were choosing rings. However, when she saw Yu Jingchen and Qin Manshu approaching, her eyes reddened, clearly indicating that she was smitten. Seeing this situation was extremely distressing, but even though she secretly wiped away her tears, she dared not go forward.
At first, Yu Jingchen didn't understand why Qin Manshu had so many requirements when choosing a ring, until he saw the artist and then he realized what Qin Manshu was up to.
Yu Jingchen smiled and asked the sales assistant to take out one of the rings for Qin Manshu to try on. While helping Qin Manshu put on the ring, he lowered his voice and said to her, "Miss Qin, if you want to embarrass me in this way, you're probably going to be disappointed. I have indeed been with a few men before, but those who stayed with me were all very well-behaved. I have never liked disobedient girls, and I also hate it when they cause me trouble. I always tell them this beforehand when I'm choosing someone."
