Seeing that Cui Si had no intention of letting him off, Xia Qiang knew that it was useless to continue kneeling, so he stood up and walked out. But his eyes were filled with hatred.
In a big city like Shanghai, being the manager of a hotel like Yunfeng was a rare high-paying position to have.
If he was fired over such a matter, other hotels would have definitely caught wind of it. And no hotel would want to hire Xia Qiang anymore. He would never be able to find such a prestigious job in Shanghai.
Xu Yue sat back in her seat and stared at the table.
She had intended to have Cui Si make a fool of herself, but the reverse happened.
The hatred in her eyes grew stronger. If it wasn’t for Cui Si, she would have been the queen today.
…
Cui Si sat on the sofa and thought about the university gathering yesterday. She couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart. How did her classmates become like this over the past few years?
She took the magazine that she got someone to deliver last night and sighed.
If it wasn’t for the system, she would probably be like them too. She might even be worse than her classmates.
[Ding dong! Detected that the host is reading a magazine on love. Reward: Picking Up Girls Skill.]
Cui Si came back to her senses. What the hell? picking up girls?
What was the use of this skill? Even if she wanted to flirt, she wanted to flirt with men. Why would she want to flirt with women?
[Ding dong! This skill has a 40% success rate with women. The longer the host flirts with someone, the higher the success rate.]
How was this beneficial to her?
But since she had already been given the skill, it was useless to complain about it now.
Ring…ring…ring…
It was a call from Xu Yue. Cui Si rejected the call but Xu Yue just kept calling.
In the end, Cui Si reluctantly picked up the call.
“Xu Yue, what else do you want? I’ve already treated you to a meal. Don’t worry about it. Just leave me alone.”
After yelling at the phone, Cui Si hung up again. She didn’t have any feelings for Xu Yue anyway.
However, the phone kept ringing. Cui Si picked up the phone again.
“Cui Si, don’t be like this. I know I’m wrong. Yesterday, you helped me see the jerk in him. I want to treat you to a meal.”
“There’s no need. Xu Yue, just stop bothering me.”
“Cui Si, just give me a chance. I have nothing left now. I want to be a good person again!”
She seemed to sound sincere and Cui Si started to reminisce over their university days.
The two of them started off as good friends. However, due to some matters and Zhang Mengmeng’s involvement, their relationship ended up like this.
In the end, Cui Si accepted Xu Yue’s invitation to meet up.
…
In the evening, Cui Si drove the car to Xu Yue’s workplace and waited for Xu Yue to get off work.
Xu Yue got into the car and immediately gave Cui Si a hug, thanking Cui Si for giving her another chance.
“Alright, Xu Yue, we don’t have to do this. Where are we going to eat?”
It was Xu Yue’s treat after all, and Cui Si rarely ate out.
Xu Yue looked around mysteriously and spoke carefully.
“Cui Si, I’ll bring you to a delicious private restaurant. It’s a little exclusive so I have already made a booking.
“It’s just that the location is a little remote. Is that OK?”
Cui Si shook her head. As long as Xu Yue was sincere, it was fine. It was always good to have another friend.
Cui Si drove to the suburbs and stopped in front of a dilapidated residential area.
“Xu Yue, are you sure this is the place? Could it be a mistake? It doesn’t look like there’s anyone here!”
Xu Yue’s eyes flickered and she stammered in agreement. She quickly told Cui Si to get out of the car.
Seeing Xu Yue like this, Cui Si thought of Zhang Mengmeng. She had once been tricked like this but thankfully, she now knew martial arts.
Cui Si looked at Xu Yue seriously.
“Xu Yue, look into my eyes and tell me the truth. It’s not too late. Don’t keep making the same mistakes.”
Xu Yue looked away guiltily. Could Cui Si have seen through it?
“Xu Yue, I have always liked you as a person. It’s just that you didn’t realize it. Now that I’ve made that clear, how about we just head back?”
Cui Si started to panic internally. Why was she blurting out these things?
Xu Yue was shocked by Cui Si’s words. What was going on? Did she like her?
“Xu Yue, you’re just like the moon in the sky. You had been out of reach for so long. Do you know how hard it has been for me to miss you all these years?”
Cui Si kept blurting out words uncontrollably and she was going crazy inside.
[Ding dong! The host has successfully used Picking Up Gilrs Skill. The other party has been 60% tempted.]
“Cui Si, stop talking. I know that. Actually, I like you too. Xia Qiang was the one who asked me to call you out here. He wants to take revenge on you.
“Cui Si, quickly, run.. I’ll hold them off for you!”
