Xia Wuyou felt both shy and happy. Another reason she didn't want to admit was that Xu Shi hadn't contacted her these past few days, and she herself was starting to feel a little urge...
Xu Shi didn't care and shamelessly agreed, "If I eat up a month's salary of yours, I won't be responsible for you if you can't pay the rent later."
"Does the landlord really have the heart to kick me out to sleep on the streets?"
Xia Xiaomao is completely immune to this.
Just spoil her.
Xu chuckled, put his arm around her waist, and the two walked away affectionately.
"Ugh, what a jerk, he's a bad man who only uses people when he needs them and doesn't use them when he doesn't."
Seeing this, Jiang Chengcheng sighed. Fortunately, she had been spending time with Xu Shi not long ago, so she didn't mind.
"Arlene, shall we go grab a bite to eat? My sister and I haven't had a proper chat in ages."
"Ah... okay."
Director Su seemed a little distracted, and it took him a while to come to his senses before he forced a smile and nodded.
"What's wrong, Arlene?"
Such a lapse in composure naturally did not escape Jiang Chengcheng's notice, and it piqued her curiosity.
Surely you can't be disgusted by the sight of blood, right? Just kidding, who are you, Su Lin...? Wait a minute...
After scrutinizing her from head to toe for a while, she confidently hit Su Lin's sore spot, "Are you jealous?"
"I... what nonsense are you talking about, Chengcheng?"
Su Lin blushed instantly and denied it outright.
"I'm talking nonsense? Your expression doesn't lie."
Jiang Chengcheng persisted, "I thought you were already used to it... It's okay, you two live under the same roof, you're practically an old married couple, even if there's no novelty, you should be able to solve it with a few tricks, right?"
"old……"
These words only made Su Lin more embarrassed, to the point that she couldn't even lift her head.
"What, did I...did I say something wrong?"
Jiang Chengcheng was even more confused and a little at a loss for words. Isn't this just a normal way of getting along? Why are you so shy...?
Wait a minute.
After all, they were best friends who had been together for many years, and before long she suddenly realized a possibility.
"Ah Lin, you, you wouldn't have... you know... with Xu Shi, would you?"
"……hold head high."
There were only the two of them there, and Su Lin thought about it and didn't hide it from her. She responded softly, her face as red as if it were about to bleed.
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Jiang Chengcheng felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
She swore she really didn't know anything about it! Good heavens, who could have imagined this? Her best friend is so stunningly beautiful, and Xu Shi is a sure-fire lecher. You two grew up together, and now you're telling me nothing happened?
What kind of fantasy script is this?! Nobody would believe it if I told them! Nobody would believe it!
She finally understood why Su Lin had this mentality; wasn't that exactly what it meant?
It's natural to feel jealous and envious when someone else surpasses you in what you didn't have, but given her best friend's personality, she couldn't bring herself to say it outright, since she and Xu Shi were too close... In the end, it would turn into this situation where she would watch him being affectionate with someone else while she hid in a corner biting her handkerchief.
"You..."
Jiang Chengcheng didn't know what to say.
"...Hey, it's okay."
Su Lin patted her cheeks; she was already used to this. "Where should we eat? My treat."
"What are we eating?!"
Looking at her best friend, Jiang Chengcheng felt so disappointed in her that she wanted to drill a few holes in her head to make her realize the truth. "Are you really planning to continue like this?"
"This...isn't it fine?"
Su Lin stammered, saying she didn't know what to do either.
"Okay? Fine, then you can live like this for the rest of your life."
Jiang Chengcheng was speechless, then turned around angrily to leave, saying, "I'm leaving. You can continue to live well."
"...Hey, hey, hey, no, no, no."
Su Lin grabbed her arm as if she were grasping at a lifeline, "Then, Chengcheng, what should I do...?"
"Hmm... Come, come, sit down first, let me analyze it for you properly."
Jiang Chengcheng wouldn't just stand by and watch her die; she might do it with anyone else, but not with her best friend. So she pulled her to sit on a chair in the cell.
It's hard to imagine that someone died in a place just thirty minutes ago, and now she's using it as a classroom.
"First, let's confirm one thing."
Jiang Cheng cleared his throat to clarify, "Ah Lin, you like Xu Shi, right?"
Su Lin nodded shyly.
Actually, the answer to this question is obvious without even asking. It's not because I like her that I could become like this.
"Okay, if you like her, then go for it!"
Jiang Chengcheng said seriously, "What's the point of keeping it all bottled up inside every day?"
"Listen to me, you can learn from Xia Wuyou and invite him out for a meal alone or something."
"Can't we do it at home?"
Su Lin asked doubtfully, "I really rarely go out to eat alone with the young master, I'm used to it..."
"That's exactly what I wanted—to feel uncomfortable."
Jiang Chengcheng sighed, thinking to herself, "You usually seem so shrewd, how come your IQ drops to zero when it comes to something like this?"
"You and he have everything you need, except for a sense of novelty, which is why you need to create some different feelings."
This is the most common method. Inviting someone out for a meal is the most helpful way to proceed gradually. That's what Xia Wuyou did. Didn't she do the same thing before?
"You need to change your outfit too, something sexier and more revealing, it has to be different from usual, you know?"
Su Lin is indeed a beauty, but she wears the same outfit every day, and she never even changes her stockings from black to flesh-colored. No matter how pretty she is, you get tired of seeing her like that, right?
