Lu Yan said seriously, “I’m quite sure I like women! I just can’t seem to get close to them! That’s why I asked you to treat me! If I really fancied men, why would I want to be treated?
Qi Qingyao shrugged. “Since your condition is so troublesome, you might as well not treat it and instead just like men.”
Lu Yan was frustrated and angry. He first blushed, then gritted his teeth and responded harshly, “I do have someone I currently fancy!”
“Who?” Qi Qingyao’s eyes lit up.
Jiang Yeqian breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Yan said, “Why should I tell you?”
Qi Qingyao responded with an ‘ooh’ and did not ask any further questions about who it was. Instead, she said, “So, you’re getting treated to be able to approach the person you like…”
Lu Yan replied, in a very relaxed tone, “That’s right!”
Qi Qingyao turned to look at Jiang Yeqian. She said, with a sigh, “Then you’re a lost cause.”
Jiang Yeqian, “…”
‘I never said I fancied Lu Yan. You were so earnestly matchmaking us, even sighing with such sincere pity. What’s the matter with you?’
Qi Qingyao continued, “But you don’t have someone you like, and you’ve never had an ex-girlfriend. You don’t even know if you like men or women—so there’s an 80% likelihood that you like men! You’re just too shy to show it.”
Jiang Yeqian almost spat out his food. He responded helplessly, “I too have a woman I fancy!”
“Huh?” Qi Qingyao was momentarily stunned. She first looked at Jiang Yeqian, then at Lu Yan. She touched her chin and said, “Upon hearing that I want to set the both of you up together, the two of you suddenly say that you have a woman who you fancy.”
Jiang Yeqian was so angry that he could not say a word.
Qi Qingyao asked curiously, “Then, have you pursued her?”
“…” Jiang Yeqian glanced at the nosy woman next to him, feeling frustrated. Why had he fallen in love with such a blockhead? What sin did he commit in his past life?!
Qi Qingyao urged, “Tell me.”
Lu Yan joined in shyly. “I’m curious too.”
Jiang Yeqian responded with a livid expression. “No.”
“Why not?” Qi Qingyao asked again.
“…” Jiang Yeqian now felt like stabbing this woman to death.
“Come on, just tell me.” Qi Qingyao pressed on with an innocent pretense.
Lu Yan also joined in and added, “Are you waiting for her to pursue you?”
“No.” Jiang Yeqian gave Lu Yan a fierce stink eye.
Qi Qingyao was so excited that her gaze started beaming. She said, “How long have you liked her?”
Jiang Yeqian rolled his eyes and said offhandedly, “A couple of days, a week or two. I’m not sure.”
Qi Qingyao a.n.a.lyzed him then said, “Oh, you haven’t liked her for long—so you haven’t figured out how to pursue her or even whether to do so.”
Jiang Yeqian was so angry he was about to laugh. “You’re someone who hasn’t figured out your own affairs, so don’t worry about others for now. Worry about yourself first.”
Qi Qingyao said, with nothing to lose, “I’m a widow, so no one will want me anyway. As long as I have money, I’ll be fine!”
Qi Qingyao got very sad when talking about that.
When other people transmigrated, they became daughters of aristocrats or shabby princesses. They had thousands of handsome men wrapped around their fingers, waiting to be chosen. Even in the worst-case scenario, they would be daughters of ministers!
Who would have guessed that…
Her script was to be a little country widow, with three kids in hand as soon as she freaking made an appearance!
That was the setup of her entrance.
There was no male lead.
It would be nice to have a muscleman. Even until now, the little tyrants that mingled in the capital had not found out who she had slept five years ago. Qi Qingyao felt that she was too much of a failure.
She still had not even heard from her one and only Si Jin since…
Qi Qingyao felt like her life was filled with hards.h.i.+ps!
She sighed softly.
Jiang Yeqian thought about it for a while, then comforted her and said, “You look good too. What if the son of a wealthy family takes a liking to you…?”
Qi Qingyao smiled cheerfully.. “Haven’t I thought about that before? I’m not going to be someone’s concubine.”
