Facing the angry Xia Yeshuang...
A problem suddenly appeared in Wei Qingyu's mind.
[Question: At this moment, Xia Yeshuang's mood is extremely poor. How should she respond?]
[Thinking…
∵ Lu Xing likes Xia Yeshuang.
∴ Lu Xing's emotions will fluctuate with Xia Yeshuang's emotions.
∵ Xia Yeshuang's mood is exceptionally poor.
∴ Lu Xing will also be in a bad mood after finding out.
∵ She wants Lu Xing to be happy.
∴ She should comfort Xia Yeshuang now!]
Right.
Wei Qingyu finally got the answer and knew what she should do.
And so.
Wei Qingyu, with an expressionless face, tried to soften her voice as much as possible, attempting to converse with the enraged Xia Yeshuang.
Wei Qingyu: "Are you very angry right now?"
Xia Yeshuang: "What do you think?"
Wei Qingyu: "Don't be in a bad mood."
Xia Yeshuang: ...
Wei Qingyu: "Are you in a better mood now?"
Xia Yeshuang: "I'm in a very bad mood!"
Wei Qingyu: "Don't be in a bad mood."
Xia Yeshuang: ...
Defenses broken!
My fucking defenses are completely broken!
"You! You! You?!"
"Who sent you to piss me off?!"
Xia Yeshuang's head was buzzing with anger.
If it weren't for the fact that she still felt a little guilty for targeting Wei Qingyu before, she would absolutely be having a one-on-one fight with her right now!
Damn it.
Are you comforting someone or sending them off?
What the fuck are you saying!
In a bad mood? Don't be.
Very hungry? Don't be.
Very thirsty? Don't be.
Fuck!
Are you a psycho?!
Xia Yeshuang was now extremely grateful that she was nestled in the sofa.
Otherwise, she really suspected she would pass out from not being able to catch her breath and smash her superior nose, which her mom had given her, on the floor!
Wei Qingyu held the book in her hands, stood there with confusion, and looked at the angry Xia Yeshuang with a dazed expression.
She seemed to have made Xia Yeshuang even angrier.
But...
But she was comforting Xia Yeshuang?
Could it be that her comforting technique was wrong?
Just now, Xia Yeshuang had been looking at her phone. She must have been looking at her chat with Lu Xing, right?
Then the reason she was in a bad mood at the beginning must be because Lu Xing didn't come.
After a moment of thought, Wei Qingyu instantly reflected on her own problem. So she opened her mouth again and tried.
"I'm sorry. I made you angry."
"Don't be angry."
"Although Lu Xing didn't come today, this doesn't affect your relationship. He likes you very much."
Pfft!!!
Xia Yeshuang felt like she was going to vomit blood. She tremblingly pointed her finger at the door.
"You... get out!"
The word "scram" was already in her throat.
But thinking of Wei Qingyu's autism, Xia Yeshuang paused for a moment and switched to a less intense word.
"Oh, okay."
Wei Qingyu saw that Xia Yeshuang was really too angry and was instantly a little downcast and frustrated.
She seemed to be unable to learn that ability of Lu Xing's.
Why could Lu Xing do it?
When others were angry, Lu Xing just had to say a few words, and he could be like a clear spring, washing away all the unpleasant traces.
Wei Qingyu suddenly thought.
I wonder what Lu Xing is doing right now.
As she reached the door, Wei Qingyu suddenly remembered something.
"I'm sorry, I have one more thing to say."
Xia Yeshuang tremblingly lifted her cup. It was a little unsteady, and some water spilled onto her shoulder.
Suddenly.
Xia Yeshuang remembered that before, when her arm was numb from sleeping, it was Lu Xing who had fed her water.
I wonder what Lu Xing is doing right now.
"Say it!"
Before, because she felt guilty towards Wei Qingyu, Xia Yeshuang's tone had been a few degrees nicer.
But this dead robot Wei Qingyu!
So damn annoying!
So Xia Yeshuang's tone returned to its original state.
Wei Qingyu said, "Lu Xing has improved a lot in this exam. The homeroom teacher wants him to follow us to Haicheng University for a visit and study."
Xia Yeshuang frowned, her golden hair bristling a little more, her exquisite eyes full of impatience.
"What are you telling me for?"
"I'm not his mom!"
Wei Qingyu nodded. "I know you're not Lu Xing's mother."
"But when I went to ask for Lu Xing's opinion, he said he wanted to stay with you."
"I think this is a very good opportunity to relax. If you're willing, you can persuade Lu Xing."
Hmm?
Xia Yeshuang had originally thought that Wei Qingyu would say something that would piss her off to death.
But...
Xia Yeshuang's expression suddenly relaxed.
Especially after hearing that Lu Xing said he wanted to stay with her, her originally anxious heart was suddenly soothed!
Hehe.
Lu Xing said he wanted to stay with her?
And he said it in front of Wei Qingyu?
Hehe.
He sure knows how to talk!
Xia Yeshuang was happy. She elegantly gathered her long golden hair and, forcing a reserved air, asked.
"Why don't you persuade him?"
Wei Qingyu was silent.
After a moment.
She endured the dull ache in her heart and said softly.
"Lu Xing only listens to you."
Xia Yeshuang was even happier and let out a smug snort.
"Of course!"
"You can go now. I'll talk to him." Xia Yeshuang's tone revealed a familiarity, as if Lu Xing were her possession.
Wei Qingyu thought, she seemed to like Lu Xing more and more.
Because her heart hurt so much.
After Wei Qingyu left, Xia Yeshuang stared at the phone chat interface.
She had already recalled eighteen messages. There was no reason Lu Xing couldn't see them!
Wait.
Xia Yeshuang suddenly thought of the speculation Wei Qingyu had made just now. This dead bot couldn't have actually guessed right, could she?
Could it be that Lu Xing really got into a car accident?
Fuck!
Xia Yeshuang patted her own face. "Think of something good, think of something good!"
Knock, knock, knock.
A knock on the door.
The butler's respectful voice came from outside.
"Miss, it's time."
"I know."
Xia Yeshuang replied perfunctorily and stood in front of the mirror to tidy up her appearance.
The girl in the mirror, though still young, had already shown her superior looks early on.
Xia Yeshuang was wearing a bright yellow haute couture dress. She subconsciously touched her own face.
Pretty and exquisite, bright and moving.
Very beautiful.
Why?
Why won't Lu Xing come to see?
Suddenly.
Xia Yeshuang looked at the person in the mirror with no interest, without the slightest thought of decorating herself.
She just casually tidied her hair and went straight out the door.
The butler, outside the door, looked at Xia Yeshuang's attire with surprise and asked with confusion.
"Miss, didn't you prepare another set of clothes to wear when you make a wish?"
Xia Yeshuang glanced at the butler, not a trace of a smile on her face.
"Shut up."
He's not even coming. What's the point of her wearing it?
Xia Yeshuang went downstairs irritably.
In the very center of the banquet, there was a huge custom-made cake, expensive, but no one would really eat it.
Most of the people who came here were just for socializing.
Although it was said to be her birthday party, it was actually just a business networking event organized by Old Man Xia.
So boring.
Xia Yeshuang was surrounded and stood in front of the cake.
Click.
The lights in the banquet hall dimmed, and the flames of the candles shone in Xia Yeshuang's eyes.
She quickly scanned the current situation.
To her left was the step-step-step-step-step-step-step-stepmother, who was smiling on the outside but cursing on the inside. To her right was Old Man Xia, who was urging her to make a wish.
Around her were the guests, who looked like human beings but were just waiting for her to go through the motions so they could continue socializing.
"Shuangshuang, hurry up and make a wish."
"Hahaha, this cake was specially customized for you by Dad. So beautiful!"
"Miss Xia is truly outstanding in her beauty."
"..."
But at such a moment of being the center of attention, Xia Yeshuang felt not the slightest bit of nervousness, happiness, or even excitement.
She stared at the flickering candle flames and suddenly thought.
‘I wonder what Lu Xing is doing right now?’
