Chapter 327: The truth cannot be hidden
Yan Xuewei felt like she was a joke.
There is anger, grievance, and more of a sense of unwillingness.
She had a crush on Lu Jingyou when she was in college, but she never had the courage to confess to him.
Not long after graduation, Mr. Lu tried to match her up with Lu Jingyou, saying that they had known each other since childhood, knew each other well, and were a perfect match.
Her parents also agreed and even gave her the responsibility for all the projects related to Jiahe Group in order to create conditions for her and Lu Jingyou to have the opportunity to get to know each other.
At that time, she felt that she was the luckiest and happiest person in the world. The person she liked was agreed upon and brought together by her elders.
She could go in and out of the Lu family to see Lu Jingyou openly.
But Lu Jingyou was too busy with work and was always on business trips. He was rarely in the capital, and every time he came back he was in a hurry, so she couldn't see him.
Even when they met, he was still lukewarm, no different from before, as if there was no such relationship between her and him.
She felt that Lu Jingyou was a workaholic and didn't talk much. That was just his personality, and she felt that she understood him.
Even though her mother had complaints about Lu Jingyou, saying that he had never taken the initiative to contact her and it didn't seem like they were in a relationship.
She also spoke up for Lu Jingyou, saying that he was busy with work and his mind was not on this aspect. She felt that she and him had a long future together and she didn't care about these things.
Lin Manli valued her very much and treated her as her future daughter-in-law, so much so that she felt that as long as she had a good relationship with Lin Manli and got along harmoniously with the Lu family, she would definitely marry Lu Jingyou.
Even though Lu Jingyou told her in person that he had no feelings for her and did not want an arranged marriage, she actually understood that he just didn't want an arranged marriage, not because of her as a person.
If Mr. Lu had been matchmaking someone else, he would also have said that he didn't want the marriage.
She even felt that as time went by, he would discover her good qualities. She was well-behaved and gentle, and had never said a word against him. Even the people in the Lu family liked her.
When she heard the name Su Jiaojiao, she accidentally heard Lin Manli complaining to Bai Moli's mother Lin Manling that Lu Jiahe fell into the water on the Peking University campus just to see what was going on between Lu Jingyou and Su Jiaojiao, and that Su Jiaojiao was a country girl and she would never agree with them.
At that time, Yan Xuewei still thought that Lu Jingyou and Su Jiaojiao were definitely a misunderstanding.
But when she saw the scene of Lu Jingyou and Su Jiaojiao together just now, she knew that she was the one who had been deceiving herself...
It turns out that Lu Jingyou is not cold and indifferent to every girl, he is just cold and indifferent to her.
But she naively thought that he was just like that, and he was very busy. He really didn't have time to look for her, let alone time to fall in love.
Yan Xuewei returned home silently and locked herself in the room for a long time. She saw Su Jiaojiao's face clearly. She was pretty, but not too stunning, so she did not lose because of her appearance.
In addition to her appearance, her family background and academic qualifications are better than Su Jiaojiao.
She didn't understand why she lost to Su Jiaojiao?
That evening, Lin Manli called to ask her out for dinner, but Yan Xuewei refused for the first time: "I'm feeling a little unwell. I won't go out."
"What's wrong?" Lin Manli asked her with concern, "Are you too tired from work? You should make sure to rest."
Although the two companies didn't make much money from their collaboration, they still got along very well with each other.
Especially Lin Manli, she is very satisfied with Yan Xuewei. Yan Xuewei is fair-skinned, beautiful, gentle as water, and never contradicts her. Anyway, she is better than Su Jiaojiao.
"Thank you for your concern, Auntie." Yan Xuewei forced a smile. "I'll be fine after a few days of rest."
Lin Manli thought she was really sick, so she didn't think much about it and asked Bai Moli to have dinner with her again.
Lu Jiahe is not at home every other day, not to mention Lu Jingyou. Even if he is in the imperial capital, he will go back to the old house to eat and sleep. He will not come to her.
There are only her and Wang Ya at home. It would be a lie to say that she is not lonely.
Bai Moli then hesitantly told Lin Manli about Yan Xuewei seeing Lu Jingyou and Su Jiaojiao dating in the park. Lin Manli became angry when she heard it: "I have already made it very clear to Su Jiaojiao, why is she still pestering your cousin?"
She wanted to find Su Jiaojiao to argue with her right away.
But when she thought about Lu Jingyou's attitude towards her these days, she didn't dare to go to Su Jiaojiao rashly.
It's not worth it if the mother and son turn against each other just for a girl!
"Aunt, my cousin is young, handsome, and rich. Su Jiaojiao won't let him go easily." Seeing Lin Manli's anger, Bai Moli took the initiative to admit her mistake. "I'm sorry, Aunt. I asked Sister Xuewei to have dinner with her today because I wanted to connect with her. I didn't know I would run into my cousin and the others. Now Sister Xuewei knows about this. What should I do?"
"What else can I do..." Lin Manli sighed. "The truth will come out sooner or later. I just called her and she said she wasn't feeling well. It looks like this is the reason. I'll go see her tomorrow and comfort her."
"Aunt, no matter how much you comfort Yan Xuewei, it's useless..." Bai Moli pointed out the crux of the problem, "The key is that my cousin's mind is not on Yan Xuewei. It's useless for us to be nice to her."
"You know that, but I can't control your cousin." Lin Manli finally told Bai Moli the truth, "It's because I went to see Su Jiaojiao last time, and he hasn't spoken to me for several months."
"Aunt, since you don't want to talk to my cousin, why not let Su Jiaojiao give up and prevent her from gaining a foothold in the imperial capital?" Bai Moli recalled Lu Jingyou's attitude towards her during the day and felt very aggrieved. "I heard she sells jeans at the Wudaokou Clothing Wholesale Market. Why don't we go and see her... Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles!"
None of them understand Su Jiaojiao.
How to make her leave her cousin...
"Hmph, I knew Su Jiaojiao's family was too poor to support a college student. If she doesn't make money, she won't even have enough to live on." Lin Manli didn't know Su Jiaojiao was selling clothes at Wudaokou. "I'm not going to see her. Please keep an eye on her for me. If we can't stop her, we'll have to ask the old man to step in."
"I understand." Bai Moli agreed immediately, "I'll tell you when I find out more."
"Okay, remember not to confront her head-on, otherwise if she complains to your cousin, he'll blame me again." Lin Manli instructed Bai Moli, "Our goal is to get Su Jiaojiao to leave your cousin, not to go against her."
"Don't worry, auntie, I know what to do." Bai Moli understood.
At the weekend, Bai Moli went to Peking University early and first went to find Wang Yue from the School of Foreign Languages. Wang Yue made it clear that she would never talk about Su Jiaojiao again.
Bai Moli called her a coward and went to find Wang Yue's roommate and high school classmate Wu Yan. They chatted about this and that, and finally brought up Su Jiaojiao. Wu Yan understood immediately: "I heard from Du Bingqian that Su Jiaojiao goes to the Wudaokou Wholesale Market every weekend. If you go there now, you will definitely see her."
