Throughout the entire birthday party, Xia Yeshuang was bored to tears.
No.
Perhaps it should be said...
Every birthday she had ever had since she could remember had been boring.
Xia Yeshuang was clearly aware that she was in a banquet hall with clinking glasses and a bustling crowd.
Everyone here was the elite of the elite, their mouths opening and closing about investing in a project here, investing in a project there.
But she was still an isolated island.
Xia Yeshuang suddenly felt a little lost, as if her soul had been pulled out of this lively scene, coldly observing from the sidelines.
"Hey!"
A voice suddenly came from behind. Her shoulder was suddenly hit, and Xia Yeshuang jolted, instantly coming back to her senses.
Before Xia Yeshuang could get angry...
She turned her head and saw the person who had come. Her previously lost emotions were instantly dispersed by a few degrees. She said with confusion.
"Zhao Yeye?"
"That's right! Didn't expect me to come see you, did you!" Zhao Yeye grinned, pulled Xia Yeshuang's arm, and found a place to sit.
"Oh man, I can finally rest for a while."
Xia Yeshuang was already used to Zhao Yeye's straightforward personality.
Come to think of it, she and Zhao Yeye were half-sisters.
Zhao Yeye was the child of Xia Yeshuang's step-step-step-stepmother.
Originally, Zhao Yeye's surname was Xia, but after her step-step-step-stepmother remarried, she had Zhao Yeye take her current father's surname.
Old Man Xia was old but vigorous, his charm undiminished from his youth.
He thoroughly implemented the concept that whoever has money should have more children, leaving behind enough children for the Xia family to form a soccer team.
Oh, no.
Counting the illegitimate ones, there should be enough for two soccer teams.
A hint of mockery flashed in Xia Yeshuang's eyes.
Even with all this, Old Man Xia still has the nerve to say he loves her mother the most?
Is this a joke?
That's right, he loved her mother the most.
But there was also a second favorite, a third favorite, and a fourth favorite.
Xia Yeshuang accepted the truth that people's hearts are fickle and love is fleeting.
But she absolutely would not accept Old Man Xia using the pretext of mourning his deceased wife to marry a group of women who looked very much like her mother.
And in the end, he would even say righteously—Yes, we have a child.
This is simply a fucking humiliation!
Among this group of jumping-up-and-down children, Zhao Yeye was the least annoying.
Therefore.
Usually, Xia Yeshuang and Zhao Yeye's relationship was quite good. They could be considered good friends who could speak their minds.
Especially after Zhao Yeye's mother remarried, the two of them had even less of a conflict of interest.
Zhao Yeye grinned and brought over a plate of cake. She closed her eyes in bliss, enjoyed a bite, and said happily.
"Xia-xia, you've gotten prettier again!"
Xia Yeshuang glanced at Zhao Yeye's dress, her expression pausing for a moment. She said, choosing her words carefully.
"You should pull up your neckline."
Huh?
Zhao Yeye looked down and found that because she had been standing for a long time, her dress had shifted down a little.
It just happened to reveal a few red marks on her chest.
Zhao Yeye nonchalantly pulled up the straps of her dress and let out a silly laugh.
"Thanks, I didn't even notice."
Even though Xia Yeshuang was used to the world, she had rarely seen someone as... unrestrained as Zhao Yeye.
"What, are you curious how I got them?" Zhao Yeye poked her head closer to Xia Yeshuang.
Xia Yeshuang abruptly pulled away from her, cleared her throat, and said unnaturally.
"I'm not curious."
"You're clearly very curious." Zhao Yeye poked Xia Yeshuang's arm. "You little tsundere with a dishonest heart. You'll lose your true love like this."
Xia Yeshuang paused for a moment. A smiling face instantly appeared in her mind.
No, no, no!
Zhao Yeye was still saying to herself, "Didn't I just transfer schools? I met a male classmate."
"Although his family is poor, he's super handsome! You don't know how good he is! His waist is also particularly good!"
(TL: Bruh, what are we saying?)
"These marks are from him."
Alarm bells suddenly went off in Xia Yeshuang's mind. She immediately asked.
"What's his surname?"
"Huh?" Zhao Yeye was dumbfounded. "Do you know him?"
Xia Yeshuang was anxious, really anxious. "Just tell me his name!"
Holy crap!
Zhao Yeye smelled a big melon.
Fuck!
She couldn't be using someone Xia Yeshuang has used before, could she?
Zhao Yeye said hesitantly, "His surname is Wang, his name is Wang..."
"Oh, I see."
Xia Yeshuang was obviously relieved.
God knows how she had suddenly held her breath just now!
She swore.
If she found out that Lu Xing was selling that thing in addition to selling emotional value, she would absolutely, she would absolutely...
Ahhhhh!
She absolutely couldn't do anything!
Xia Yeshuang thought herself into a rage. Then she thought of Lu Xing not coming tonight, and got even angrier!
"What's wrong with you?"
Zhao Yeye was dumbfounded. Why did she feel that Xia Yeshuang's emotions were becoming more and more unpredictable?
She was fine just now. Why did she suddenly get angry?
Could it be that this guy was really used by Xia Yeshuang before?
Instantly.
Zhao Yeye's heart was a little nervous. To be honest, she quite liked that kid.
Xia Yeshuang glanced at Zhao Yeye's chest.
That man could leave red marks on Zhao Yeye, then Lu Xing...
Whatever.
Xia Yeshuang touched her slightly hot ears as if to cover it up and said, feigning composure.
"You two should be careful. Be safe."
Huh?
Zhao Yeye was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing. She put her arm around Xia Yeshuang's shoulder and laughed until she was bent over.
"Xia-xia, I know more about this than you do. You'll probably have to ask me for advice in the future!"
"Don't worry, I'll be careful."
"And he's really very good. He also pays attention to my feelings. I really quite like him."
Xia Yeshuang slapped Zhao Yeye's arm away and said solemnly.
"Zhao Yeye! Please wake up!"
"Do you know how much you're acting like a love-struck fool right now? You can't be deceived by a man!"
Zhao Yeye scratched her head. "Am I? But he's really very cute."
Xia Yeshuang was filled with disappointment.
"You already think he's cute. Isn't that being a love-struck fool? What man is cute?"
Zhao Yeye retorted.
"Have you never thought any man was very cute?"
Xia Yeshuang was just about to retort but suddenly fell silent.
After a moment, she said calmly, "Of course not!"
Zhao Yeye squinted her eyes.
"Really? I don't believe you!"
Xia Yeshuang was furious. "Really not!"
Zhao Yeye nodded thoughtfully and suddenly said.
"I've been studying astrology recently. Aren't you an Aries? Let me test you."
"Quick answer!"
"Which sign is most compatible with Aries?"
Huh?
Zhao Yeye's topic changed too quickly. Xia Yeshuang couldn't keep up and said subconsciously.
"Gemini."
"Ooh~~~"
Zhao Yeye drew out the sound.
"Is that guy a Gemini?"
Xia Yeshuang was stunned.
Xia Yeshuang went into overheat.
Xia Yeshuang went berserk!
