Jiang Tian was asleep when her phone kept ringing.
Wei Jingshen finished cooking and wanted to wake her up, but when he saw the buzzing phone, he immediately recognized the number.
Who called?
Jiang Tian had some difficulty speaking.
She cried quite a lot yesterday, partly out of shame and partly because she was being held back by Wei Jingshen.
"It's Zhou Xiaoxiao."
Wei Jingshen told her the truth; he didn't want to hide it from her.
Jiang Tian's expression gradually changed.
After the phone stopped vibrating briefly, the call came in again.
Jiang Tian held out her hand: "Give me your phone, I'll talk to her."
"You two don't really have much to talk about. What she wants to say is just the same old thing. Once the Zhou family's matter is resolved, she won't bother you anymore."
Wei Jingshen did not approve of their conversation.
Zhou Xiaoxiao was so unruly that he was afraid she would hurt Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian shook her head: "It's okay. She needs to talk to me. If she can't find me, she definitely won't give up. So it's better to resolve it sooner rather than later."
So Wei Jingshen had no choice but to hand her the phone.
Zhou Xiaoxiao originally thought that Luo Wenxi would help her get things done.
In a sense, Luo Wenxi is a qualified suitor, as he wears many hats at once.
He would overcome any obstacle and do anything for Zhou Xiaoxiao if she needed him.
Zhou Xiaoxiao was used to passing the problems to him and letting him handle them.
She knew, of course, that she was in a serious situation, but the problem was that she couldn't find anyone to help her.
Jiang Tian has become her rival, so she must send her away so that she won't have to bother her anymore.
She thought Luo Wenxi would definitely be able to help her accomplish this, but she never expected that he would fail.
When Luo Wenxi told her about the incident, his tone was very strange, as if he had been strongly stimulated.
Zhou Xiaoxiao felt uneasy and asked him, "What happened? Did you refuse to give her the money she asked for?"
Luo Wenxi was somewhat dazed and confused.
He subconsciously replied to Zhou Xiaoxiao, "No, she doesn't want money, she just doesn't like me."
"Why doesn't she like you? With her qualifications, what kind of partner can she find? You should try harder! Luo Wenxi, you know my current situation and you give up so easily. Where do you put me then!"
Zhou Xiaoxiao's words were immediately accusatory.
She dreamed of getting her biological sister to leave as soon as possible, but her most loyal henchman failed to help her accomplish this task.
It's impossible not to feel any unease.
Luo Wenxi suddenly asked her, "Xiaoxiao, I want to know, am I important to you?"
Zhou Xiaoxiao was still immersed in anger, and when she heard the question, she paused for a second.
Why do you ask that?
Luo Wenxi's tone didn't change much: "If you want to ask, then ask. So, can you answer me?"
"Of course it's important. We grew up together, and you've helped me so much. I can't live without you."
Zhou Xiaoxiao vaguely sensed the other person's emotional instability and subconsciously chose a more appropriate answer.
But to her surprise, Luo Wenxi laughed and said, "So if I'm no longer of any use to you, will you leave me?"
Zhou Xiaoxiao instinctively denied it, but she didn't know how to pretend.
The relationship between the two people was nothing more than one of exploitation and being exploited from the very beginning.
She still remembered the embarrassing way Luo Wenxi confessed his feelings to her back then.
She had no affection for this man and would never experience romantic love again in her life, but she did feel some companionship.
"Luo Wenxi, I don't know what's wrong with you, but I can tell you for sure that in my heart, you are one of the few friends I have."
"I see."
Luo Wenxi hung up the phone quickly.
Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't understand why he was like this.
He only went to see Jiang Tian once, but his emotions seem to have been severely affected.
Driven by her instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, Zhou Xiaoxiao did not dare to trouble Luo Wenxi again.
However, apart from Luo Wenxi, she couldn't find a single other useful helper by her side.
Zhou Xiaoxiao was flamboyant since childhood, and many people disliked her. She was also arrogant and never humbled herself to make friends with anyone, so over time, she didn't have many friends at all.
When she actually needed people, she realized that she had too few people around her.
After much deliberation, Zhou Xiaoxiao decided not to reveal her secret to too many people.
If scheming people were to find out that she was not the Zhou family's biological daughter, one can foresee how severe the consequences would be.
Since Luo Wenxi is no longer needed, she will have to take over herself.
Zhou Xiaoxiao was actually very nervous when she made this call.
She didn't need an older sister at all; she just wanted to be the eldest daughter of the Zhou family.
But fate is cruel, and how could she escape it?
"Hello."
Upon hearing the other person's voice, Zhou Xiaoxiao felt a strange, indescribable feeling.
"I'm Zhou Xiaoxiao. I know about your background now. Would you like to talk in person? There are so many knots between us, and we need to untie them one by one."
Zhou Xiaoxiao forced herself to remain calm.
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested. I've already made myself clear."
Zhou Xiaoxiao's tone suddenly turned irritable: "You know what's going on? I don't know anything! Do you know what kind of difficult situation I'm facing? My life was peaceful and uneventful, but because of you, it's all turned into this. All I want is to see you, and you can't even grant me that request?"
