Chapter 1249: Yang Lan’s Jealousy
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the blink of an eye, two days pa.s.sed. Chi Shuyan called Qi Zhenbai in the afternoon and arranged to meet him at the cafe opposite the school at 6:30pm.
She did want to invite him to Imperial Restaurant, but the restaurant was very popular and there were a lot of customers in particular in the evening. Given that she planned to make things clear to Qi Zhenbai today about not getting back together, she was afraid that the man would make trouble with too many people watching, so she chose the cafe.
As soon as cla.s.s ended in the afternoon, Zhen Yu and Yang Lan came over to eat together with Chi Shuyan. She directly declined and said that she had an appointment. She also looked at Zhen Yu, who was still on good terms with Yang Lan, and didn’t say much. As long as Yang Lan didn’t set her sights on Zhen Yu, Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to kick up a fuss with Zhen Yu. After all, to some extent, Yang Lan treated Zhen Yu pretty well.
“I’ll go first!” Chi Shuyan nodded at Zhen Yu and ignored Yang Lan as she walked out.
When Zhen Yu heard Shuyan say no, she didn’t think much of it. Instead, she and Yang Lan prepared to go out for a meal and take a walk.
!!
Yang Lan’s eyes were fixed on Chi Shuyan’s back. Seeing that she hadn’t greeted her earlier and had directly ignored her, her eyes darkened. As the two walked, Yang Lan suddenly said, “Zhen Yu, do you think Shuyan… has a problem with me?”
Zhen Yu didn’t expect Yang Lan to think that way at all. She was stunned and said, “Yang Lan, why would you think that? Shuyan must have something on. She can’t have anything against you!”
Yang Lan said, “Why do I feel like Shuyan has been unhappy ever since I told her that I was with Feng Qin? By the way, Zhen Yu, has Shuyan been in a bad mood recently? I heard…” At that point, Yang Lan paused for a moment before she said, “Why do I feel like I heard that Shuyan and President Qi really broke up? Zhen Yu, do you think it’s true?”
After asking these questions, Yang Lan looked at Zhen Yu with bright eyes.
To be honest, Zhen Yu didn’t like telling Yang Lan about Shuyan and President Qi’s private matters. Last time, Yang Lan had speculated that Shuyan wouldn’t be able to marry into the Qi family and had broken up with President Qi. Zhen Yu felt a little uncomfortable thinking about Yang Lan’s tone back then.
Asking again this time?
She didn’t know what Yang Lan wanted to hear from her. It was always a little strange whenever Zhen Yu hung out with Yang Lan now. She actually preferred to hang around with Ji Mingshu now, but Ji Mingshu was in a relations.h.i.+p and wasn’t in the same department, so they couldn’t meet up all the time. Besides, her relations.h.i.+p with Yang Lan had always been good, so she couldn’t ignore Yang Lan forever. It was just that when the two of them were together these days, Yang Lan always talked to her about Shuyan’s private affairs. It would have been fine if it was something nice, but now, Yang Lan seemed to have changed into a different person. She had her eye on Shuyan and kept talking about her private affairs, and even guessed the worst.
As a bystander, Zhen Yu felt that something was off. She wondered if Yang Lan was jealous of Shuyan, but when she thought about it, it was impossible. After all, Shuyan had helped her and Yang Lan before.
Yang Lan had seen President Qi before and had never been jealous of Shuyan. Although she teased her a lot, everyone got along well.
But now, Zhen Yu looked at Yang Lan with indecipherable and complicated emotions. She didn’t know what to say. She thought about how Yang Lan had started to change after her boyfriend introduced a partner to her.
Logically speaking, she still noticed some changes in Yang Lan, but she still didn’t want to think badly of her. After all, it was good that they got along.
She hoped that she, Yang Lan, and Shuyan could still get along as harmoniously as before.
Zhen Yu felt that she was thinking too much. She gritted her teeth and suddenly blurted out, “Yang Lan, do you have a problem with Shuyan?”
As soon as she said that, Zhen Yu regretted asking.
Sure enough, Yang Lan’s face changed drastically when she heard Zhen Yu’s words. She also looked at Zhen Yu in front of her, but she quickly calmed down and said, “How is that possible? Zhen Yu! Who told you that?”
Without waiting for Zhen Yu to speak, Yang Lan quickly said, “How can I have a problem with Shuyan? She is the last person I would have a problem with. If Shuyan hadn’t given me the talismans back then, who knows what would have happened to you and me!”
Zhen Yu was indeed worried that Yang Lan would have a problem with Shuyan. Hearing that Yang Lan still remembered Shuyan’s kindness, her complicated expression quickly relaxed and some of the doubts in her heart disappeared. She took a few more looks at Yang Lan. Seeing her grateful expression, Zhen Yu trusted her even more.
She heaved a sigh of relief in her heart and said, “Yang Lan, you’re right to think that way. If it wasn’t for Shuyan, the two of us wouldn’t just be in the hospital right now; there might not even have been a chance for us to be saved. We can’t be ungrateful.”
Zhen Yu didn’t notice that when she said the last few words, Yang Lan’s face flashed with gloom and ugliness, but she quickly regained her smile and nodded. “Zhen Yu, you’re right!”
“One last thing, Yang Lan: Shuyan didn’t break up with President Qi. Don’t ask me this kind of question again next time. I’ll only say it once: Shuyan really didn’t break up with President Qi. Last night, President Qi was walking out and about with Shuyan. Shuyan even treated us to milk tea. I think President Qi has a particularly good relations.h.i.+p with Shuyan and is especially considerate! He’s especially good to Shuyan. I think that given Shuyan’s relations.h.i.+p with President Qi, it’s impossible for the two of them to break up for the rest of their lives. Maybe as soon as Shuyan graduates, she’ll marry into the Qi family! As Shuyan’s best friends, we’ll also have face then!”
After Zhen Yu said all that in one breath, Yang Lan couldn’t squeeze out a smile.
“Okay, let’s not talk about Shuyan anymore. Let’s go eat dinner first!”
