"You were the one who said they looked down on us, right? How can you be so narrow-minded? Shu Ying clearly didn't show anything, but you kept talking so loudly, making me wrongly accuse her for so long for no reason."
Qi Zecheng had no words to say.
What did he say back then?
He clearly didn't say anything.
At that time, Shu Ying and Xie Zhiyan's relationship was not deep, and they rarely saw each other. No one knew that Shu Ying was raising two children alone. From Xie Zhiyan's perspective as a friend, he did not see how affectionate Shu Ying was.
But the most valuable thing about a person is to admit their mistakes and correct them. He admires Shu Ying now, but he can't just say such cheesy things in front of Xie Zhiyan.
Given how he fluttered his tail like a peacock whenever he saw Shu Ying, hearing this would definitely make people think he had something on his mind.
Ye Zhanying held her face in her hands, still looking very troubled.
"You said Shuying is two years younger than us, so why is she so amazing while the two of us are nothing?"
She then gave Qi Zecheng a disdainful look. No wonder my grandfather said you weren't smart when I was little. It turns out it was true.
They say birds of a feather flock together. I knew I shouldn't have hung out with you. It's all your fault for making me so stupid.
Qi Zecheng felt like he had become Dou E, and was about to be wronged to death.
He's smart too, okay?
It's just that what people fear most is comparison. He may be slightly inferior to Shu Ying in comparison, but everyone has their own expertise.
He patted Ye Zhanying on the shoulder, "Don't you see any good qualities in me?"
How could anyone be completely useless?
Ye Zhanying looked him up and down, and Qi Zecheng looked at her expectantly, finally getting a positive answer.
"No."
Qi Zecheng fell silent.
Qi Zecheng became somewhat withdrawn.
Ye Zhanying pretended not to notice his emotions and turned his head with one hand to look in Jiang Yunzhou's direction.
Jiang Yunzhou was also eagerly waiting for Shu Ying to come over, glancing towards the exit every now and then. He was practically a stone in the air; anyone who didn't know better would think he was waiting for his sweetheart.
"You know, he seems so distracted, something's definitely wrong with him. Could it be that he has feelings for Comrade Shuying?"
Qi Zecheng sneered, "Hmm, you did quite well this time, your reactions weren't so slow."
Alarm bells rang in Ye Zhanying's mind.
Although she felt that Xie Zhiyan was not good enough for the current Shu Ying, she was determined to stand up for the original wife.
"Comrade Jiang, right? How long have you known Comrade Shu Ying? How did you two meet? Are you two close?"
She bombarded him with a series of questions, leaving Jiang Yunzhou unsure which to answer first. Qi Zecheng awkwardly covered her mouth, but he couldn't resist Ye Zhanying's gossipy nature.
"Please don't overthink it. I'm also a good friend of Comrade Shuying. We've known each other for many years, and I've always admired her. So I wanted to get to know her better from you to see if she has any other hobbies."
