Chapter 1280: The Mysterious Deskmate (50)
"Qiya, what were you talking to her about? Don"t apologize to her like an idiot. It"s not our fault. She"s obviously…"
"She looks like a scheming girl, otherwise how could Young Master Jie be so good toward her? I wonder what kind of spell she put on Young Master Jie!"
"Could she have some special abilities in "that" area?"
"Heh, I think so too. On the surface, she may look innocent, but on the inside she"s super flirtatious. Don"t guys like those kinds of girls?"
As He Qiya listened, she frowned and her expression changed as she looked at them.
"Enough!" she whisper-shouted them.
"What? Qiya, what"s up with you?"
He Qiya gave a long exhale as if she were breathing out all the anger that had acc.u.mulated inside her.
"I said enough!" This time, she said it very seriously, emphasizing every word, her eyes resolute as she stared at them.
One of them was unhappy. "He Qiya, what"s the meaning of this? We are helping you!
"Helping me?" He Qiya sneered. She shook her head, looked at them, and said, "You"ll be helping me if you stop causing trouble for me! Mu Xiaoxiao was right. If you were really my friend you wouldn"t put me in an embarra.s.sing situation on my birthday!"
"What was she bad-mouthing us about?"
"She didn"t!" He Qiya looked directly at them and said without holding herself back, "She only taught me what it means to be a friend and what it means to be a… hypocrite!"
Why would she want to keep fake friends like them?
He Qiya"s eyes darkened.
Although she was a daughter of the rich He Family, the He Family had always favored males over females. Ever since she was young, she had been neglected.
At home, she was dispensable. Her parents didn"t care about her and her brothers were always ordering her around.
She didn"t receive warmth from her family, so she longed for friends.h.i.+p.
So when she had friends around her, she did everything she could to treat them well.. She wanted to keep her friends and wanted to be someone whom they care about.
Qiya knew very well that she wasn"t that important to them. But she kept consoling herself that they would start to treat her as an important friend.
However, she was wrong.
Mu Xiaoxiao"s words had woken her up.
She shouldn"t have to lower herself when making friends. Friends were formed when people had an affinity for each other.
They… were simply not suitable to be her friends.
He Qiya had always disliked how the three of them bad-mouthed people among themselves. They were narrow minded and were always scheming.
She had thought that they were her friends, so she tried to be tolerant. But she was wrong. Their views and values were different. It was impossible for them to be friends.
Upon hearing what He Qiya said, the three girls frowned and said angrily. "Qiya, are you listening to her now? You don"t want to be friends with us? Hypocrites? You"re saying that we are hypocritical? How are we hypocritical!"
"Of course you are!" He Qiya raised her voice, not caring if other people were watching.
She looked straight at them. She had never been in a situation like this before.
"When have you ever treated me sincerely? Don"t think I don"t know that you three are always laughing about me behind my back, saying that I"m stupid! I heard it on two occasions! I only pretended not to have heard it!"
