Volume 1 Chapter 119 Unless You Are RMB
Xu Daiyue reappeared after five minutes, with her makeup completely removed, revealing a pure and fair face.
Her eyes were slightly red and swollen, as if she had suffered a lot of injustice and cried for a long time.
Du Ruo looked at her and asked with concern, "Why are you crying?"
Xu Daiyue snorted lightly, with a hint of stubbornness in her tone, "What do you care?" She returned to the bed.
Seeing this, Du Ruo stopped talking, but did not get up and leave. He just stared at her quietly.
Xu Daiyue had discovered in the two previous brief encounters that Du Ruo didn't seem to be afraid of awkward silences at all, but she couldn't do that.
She felt very uncomfortable in the silence facing each other.
After a few seconds, she couldn't help but ask, "Did Feifei just give you a gift?"
Du Ruo: “I won’t tell you.”
"..." Xu Daiyue choked and said angrily, "Why are you like this? I'm asking you a question."
Du Ruo tilted his head slightly and repeated in confusion, "Why are you like this?"
Xu Daiyue: "What's wrong with me?"
"I asked you a question first, and you chose not to answer. Then if you ask me a question, why should I answer it?" Du Ruo said in a calm tone, simply stating the facts.
Xu Daiyue was choked by her and blushed. She couldn't find any words to refute her. Finally, she could only pretend to be sarcastic and said, "Don't think that just because my grandfather likes you, you can ride on my head."
Du Ruo's expression was not only puzzled, but also simply unbelievable.
"You are short and skinny, why should I ride on your head?"
"Metaphor! This is a metaphor! I'm warning you not to bully me!" Xu Daiyue was so angry that she didn't even have time to put on her shoes. She jumped off the bed and stood in front of Du Ruo. She put her hands on her waist, raised her chin, and said, "How am I short? I'm 168cm!! I'm definitely taller than you!!"
Du Ruo also stood up, compared his height with hers with his hand, and said calmly: "Well, you should not be lying, I am 166cm."
Xu Daiyue snorted, "You are the short and thin one."
Du Ruo said nonchalantly: "You are not as tall as Xu Jingmo. He willingly let me bully him. Why should I bully you? We are not familiar with each other."
Xu Daiyue was startled. Yes...they were not familiar with each other...
She didn't know why, but she felt that way subconsciously.
She had known Wen Fei for 20 years before she became Wen Fei’s best friend. They had only known each other for a few days… and Wen Fei liked her so much…
And Grandpa, first he gave her a string of Buddhist beads at some point, and now he is introducing Du Ruo to people in such a grand manner. She is his granddaughter, but he doesn’t introduce her to anyone. If outsiders mention the Xu family in the future, will they not think of her as the only little princess of the Xu family?
Du Ruo asked sincerely, "If nothing unexpected happens, we will be relatives in the future. I have no grudge against you. Why do you think I want to bully you?"
Xu Daiyue was questioned by her and couldn't explain it. She didn't want to admit that she was just jealous, so she just said cunningly: "They all said so."
Du Ruo asked: "Who?"
"Just them, some friends." Xu Daiyue made an excuse for herself, "Do you know how much my grandfather values boys over girls? You are the first girl I have seen that he treats differently. He doesn't care about any of my friends. Just because you are his most beloved grandson's girlfriend, he treats you so well."
Du Ruo sat back on the sofa and commented with a look of understanding, "Oh... then my intuition was right. You are just jealous, and maybe a little jealous."
Xu Daiyue sneered and sat on the sofa opposite, saying in a haughty tone: "Don't be so self-indulgent. If you weren't Xu Jingmo's girlfriend, you would think my grandfather would pay attention to you. Why should I be jealous of you? He has been partial to Xu Jingmo for a long time."
Du Ruo nodded in agreement, "Well, you are right, but you said the opposite."
"What?" Xu Daiyue was puzzled.
Du Ruo: "If you are not Xu Jingmo's family, do you think I would pay any attention to you?"
Xu Daiyue's eyes widened in shock. What kind of anti-Tian Gang talk was this?! In Beicheng, who wouldn't be polite to their family members? Why would she not bother to pay attention? What a joke!
But she said this with a calm and determined look on her face, making people feel that she really didn't want to bother with them. Xu Daiyue stared at her in a daze, with a bewildered expression.
Du Ruo suddenly asked, "Can I ask you something?"
Xu Daiyue replied consciously: "What?"
Du Ruo: "You have been saying that Master Xu favors Xu Jingmo for a long time. Then why do you get to live in such a luxurious bedroom, while Xu Jingmo's bedroom is as simple as a hotel suite."
Xu Daiyue snorted, "My parents spoil me, how can he compare with me?"
Du Ruo added: "Your mother just gave me a diamond necklace. I think your mother dotes on me very much."
Xu Daiyue said nonchalantly, "It's just a meeting gift for you. Don't flatter yourself. If someone else came, she would give it to you as well."
Du Ruo was puzzled and asked, "According to what you said, whether it's Grandpa Xu or your mother, they treated me like this because I'm Xu Jingmo's girlfriend. Why are you only angry with me and Grandpa Xu, but not with your mother?"
Xu Daiyue choked. Yes... why...
Du Ruo defended her, "Because you know that your mother loves you the most in her heart. No matter how she treats others, they will never be better than you."
"Then I don't understand. Since your parents love you, your fiancé loves you, and the most important people in your life love you the most, and even love you openly and intensely, and everyone knows that you are the most favored princess of the Xu family, why do you have to care whether Master Xu loves you or not?"
"Is liking you a life KPI that I must accomplish? Xu Jingmo's father doesn't love him, and his mother doesn't love him, so can't someone show some preference to him?"
Xu Daiyue was speechless. She was spoiled by her parents since she was a child and had never suffered any grievances.
Later, Xu Jingmo was born. He was the first person who never gave in to her and always liked to bully her.
Every time he made her cry, she would be beaten up by her second uncle, and her second aunt would buy her many beautiful dolls to comfort her.
The way they taught Xu Jingmo was very simple, because she was a girl and boys should give way to girls, and she firmly believed this.
Even though Xu Jingmo bullied her, she was not afraid. She just cried and that was it. She watched him get beaten and received gifts. It was simply too good to be true.
Yes... Even Xu Jingmo's biological parents didn't support him... He felt more wronged than her...
Xu Daiyue was used to being flattered, and she really didn't want to admit that she was jealous at the moment. She was a high-ranking little princess who had nothing since she was a child, so why did she have to be jealous of others...
She said unconvincedly: "Then my grandfather is also biased towards boys over girls. He introduced people to Xu Jingmo and to you, an outsider, but never to me."
Du Ruo said: "Do you understand the double-seam interference experiment?"
"What?" Xu Daiyue looked confused. "What seam?"
Du Ruo shrugged and said, "It's a physics experiment. I've been talking to people about it all night. If you're interested, you can join in."
Xu Daiyue just felt that Du Ruoshi was very eloquent and she couldn't refute a single word he said, and she was even humiliated invisibly.
She doesn't know anything about physics experiments. She only knows how to eat, drink and have fun.
Du Ruo said, "I don't know how much Grandpa Xu values men over women, but I can understand that he looks down on your friends. I wouldn't look down on them either. Can a friend who can gossip about your family members in front of you really be a good friend?"
"If you insist on forcing everyone to like you, then you must be the RMB. But the RMB you hold now is the appreciation of Master Xu's capital."
