Li Si also put down her chopsticks, unable to eat properly facing this person: "What’s there to be afraid of seeing? It’s not like you haven’t seen it before!"
She didn’t care about those things in her heart. If Ling Wei said anything more unpleasant, she would spill the beans about what happened in Bali and see who ends up embarrassed then.
"You!" Ling Wei originally intended to give Li Si a piece of her mind, venting her irritation, but instead, she was left speechless and even more stifled by the rebuttal.
"Weiwei, so you’ve met Li Si’s boyfriend!" Du Juan was full of curiosity, scrutinizing Li Si and Ling Wei suspiciously. She had suspected something, wondering why Ling Wei was acting so differently when it came to a new classmate—it turned out there was more to it.
"Only met a few times, that’s all!"
Ling Wei’s expression was slightly unnatural, secretly resenting. She wasn’t afraid of god-like opponents, only pig-like teammates. Was Du Juan here just to sabotage her?
"Oh my! So you’ve also seen how handsome Li Si’s boyfriend is! I didn’t dare to look directly at him that day; his eyes, his demeanor—it was just unbelievable! Heaven, when will you grant me a man like that too!"
Du Juan was still reminiscing about that day, regretting not taking a photo for keepsake.
Liu Xiaole heard her exaggerated expression and laughed so hard that she spat out the rice in her mouth. Unfortunately, it landed right on Ling Wei’s face.
The noisy surroundings around them momentarily fell silent, followed by successive waves of suppressed laughter.
Ling Wei glared at Liu Xiaole fiercely, feeling a murderous intent towards her, and questioned why Du Juan would say such reckless things. Finally, she turned her gaze on Li Si—it was all her fault!
Wang Zhe had originally planned to join his buddies after getting his meal but rushed to Ling Wei’s side at full speed when he saw what happened, pulling out a wet wipe to clean her face, looking reproachfully at Liu Xiaole: "Liu Xiaole, how could you do this?"
Liu Xiaole barely contained her laughter, sincerely apologized: "I’m sorry! Ling Wei, it wasn’t intentional! It’s just that Du Juan’s words were so funny, I lost my guard and accidentally sprayed on you! Here, let me help you wipe it!"
She reached for the wet wipe but was coldly refused by Wang Zhe: "No need!"
He carefully wiped her face, and the grievance in Ling Wei’s eyes touched his heart. Though Ling Wei sometimes acted like a princess, she had never lost face so badly.
Seeing her boyfriend Wang Zhe by her side, Ling Wei felt like she had an outlet for her emotions. Even after being cleaned, she still felt disgusted, questioning through tears: "Liu Xiaole, what were you thinking? I haven’t done anything to you, have I?"
Liu Xiaole found it amusing, but considering everyone was watching and she indeed went too far, she quickly said: "Ling Wei, look, I really didn’t mean it!
We’ve not been classmates for just a day or two, everyone knows that apart from being straightforward and quick to speak, I really don’t have bad intentions. If it weren’t for Du Juan’s words being too funny, I wouldn’t have lost composure !"
"Weiwei, I really didn’t mean anything by it earlier, I just blurted it out bigger than I thought. How was I to know Liu Xiaole would be so easily amused, laughing so much! Please don’t be mad!"
Du Juan secretly regretted her carelessness. Who would have thought things would turn out ? She didn’t know Ling Wei well, but she knew she valued face the most. This incident humiliated her in front of everyone.
Would she still be able to get along with her later? Feeling uneasy, she looked at Ling Wei with uncertainty. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novel·fire.net
Seeing many classmates in the cafeteria looking over, Ling Wei felt a mix of resentment and realization, turning to sob and glare at Li Si, eyes full of accusation.
"Li Si, don’t you have anything to say to me?"
Wang Zhe followed her gaze towards Li Si. Regarding this girl in front of him, Ling Wei had already mentioned her to him before. Now facing her, he felt somewhat awkward, to be honest.
After all, back then, Ling Wei had confidently claimed they both had poor English. Now they were not only in the same school but also the same major, all studying English, it didn’t hold water.
But in this current situation, regardless of Ling Wei’s original intentions, whether joking or trying to make friends through a pretense, it wasn’t worth delving into.
Right now, Ling Wei was truly embarrassed, although he didn’t know what she had to do with it, he subconsciously placed some blame on her.
