“Look at the thread Bro Earth posted! ‘Yaoyao PK’d Qin Yiran, Yaoyao won without a shred of doubt!’ ” Jiang Yue read out loud as she swiftly browsed through the thread.
“Say, who do you think that Bro Earth is? How is it that his ideas are so in line with Yaoyao’s? And by the way, he sure is cold-blooded. To take Yaoyao and Qin Yiran’s ID photo and place them side-by-side with each other—everyone knows that the ID photo has the mystical ability to make a person look many times uglier than they actually are! Even so, Yaoyao’s ID photo is still so pretty. As for Qin Yiran’s, hah, I couldn’t even recognize her anymore. Though, I do like how vicious Bro Earth is, hahaha…” It was hard to tell what had triggered He Tiantian’s funny bone, but she rolled around the bed, laughing non-stop.
Jiang Yue: “No matter what, at least this matter has been perfectly resolved. Actually, I’m pretty curious about how Qin Yiran’s doing right now. Is she crying? I wonder how her roommates see her now. If I were her, I would surely have no face to meet anyone after so many of my dirty deeds had been revealed!”
“Now that you mention it, I’m quite curious about that too. But there’s one thing that I’m more curious about…” At this point, He Tiantian turned her gaze towards Shi Yao. “Yaoyao, spill it! What’s going on between you and Adonis Lin?”
He Tiantian’s words had reminded Jiang Yue of that topic as well, and she quickly joined in, “That’s right, Yaoyao! It’s about time for you to come clean with us. And we won’t take ‘there’s nothing between us’ as an answer!”
Leng Nuan was in the middle of washing an apple for Shi Yao when she heard Jiang Yue and He Tiantian’s words. Shaking the delectable apple before Shi Yao’s eyes, she joined in with a smile, “Yaoyao, there’ll be leniency if you confess, but torture if you refuse.”
Staring at the apple fixedly, Shi Yao felt as if there were angels and devils clashing in her mind. After struggling for a long while, she eventually succumbed to the temptation of the devils and came clean.
After listening to her story, the trio stared at her for a long time, each with expressions that seemed to say, “Who do you think you’re fooling?”. He Tiantian then spoke up, “Yaoyao, I really couldn’t tell that you have an inner talent for story-telling. Child betrothal? What kind of age do you think we’re in? To think that you can come up with such a thing!”
Jiang Yue: “Even if the child betrothal is true, but Yaoyao, don’t you think your story sounds a little unlikely? Are you sure that you’re the one who wants to cancel the engagement and not Lin Jiage?”
Leng Nuan: “Lin Jiage’s grandfather happened to fall sick at this moment, so you had to delay your plans to cancel the engagement? This sure follows through with a certain idiom, ‘Coincidences make the book’. I’ll give you 100 points for your ability to craft a story!”
He Tiantian: “And you say that you kissed Lin Jiage while playing a game? What kind of game is it? Come on, let’s play it a hundred times!”
Just what was the world coming to? She had already revealed the truth, but why wouldn’t anyone believe her?
Shi Yao reached for the apple in Leng Nuan’s hand, but Leng Nuan swiftly pulled the apple away, refusing to give it to her. Thus, she could only resign herself and make a vicious vow, “I swear that everything I said is true. If there’s anything dishonest about my words, may I starve to death!”
Jiang Yue: “No way! That’s the worst kind of vow that a glutton could ever make! Well, I guess that means you’re telling the truth… Nuannuan, you can give her the apple now. I need to think this about this.”
He Tiantian: “The world turned out to be crazy. I need some time to calm down too.”
Leng Nuan passed the apple to Shi Yao. She didn’t say a word, but her face also revealed that she needed some time to think things through as well.
Shi Yao grabbed the apple, but after barely taking a huge bite of it, Shi Yao’s three roommates suddenly flew into an uproar, “My gosh, a child betrothal! Why is Yaoyao’s life so blessed? Why didn’t my grandfather prepare a child betrothal for me too?”
Tsk, who’s the one who said that ‘Lin Jiage may be my Adonis too, but this is truly too much’, and claimed that she would choose me if given a choice between the two of us?
All plastic! They’re all plastic sisters!
Shi Yao thought as she took another large bite out of the apple.
