I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With-Chapter 806: So-called Friends (2)

Ning Xixi bit her lower lip, smiled at her, and said nothing.

However, when she lowered her butterfly-wing-like eyelashes, Ji Yebai could tell she looked a bit lonely.

The dishes arrived, and Ling Han picked up her chopsticks, eating heartily and smacking her lips from time to time.

Ning Xixi and Cheng Youran had reminded her many times before, but she carelessly said it didn’t matter, she’d change in the future.

However, she hadn’t changed this habit until now.

Ning Xixi suddenly lost her appetite, only picking dishes close to her and taking a few bites, while Ji Yebai was even more exaggerated, drinking water all the time, without even touching his chopsticks.

"Has Long Ge given you any trouble?" Ning Xixi perked up, talking about the past.

"No," Ling Han said.

"That’s good." Ning Xixi breathed a sigh of relief, remembering how Ling Han had been locked up and abused by Long Ge back then, she felt a shiver of fear, "Do you have any plans?"

Ling Han frowned, "Aren’t you annoying, like my mom, always asking if I have plans. What plans could I have? Graduate early and find someone rich to marry."

Ning Xixi looked at her in surprise, "Aren’t you looking for a job?"

"With my education, what job can I find? At most, a waitress or a sales assistant, working hard for pitiful money every month. It’d be better to marry and have children, better to be supported by someone!" Ling Han said indifferently, "Aren’t your studies not great either? You have no skills, you’d better marry your boyfriend sooner and live a wealthy life."

Only then did Ning Xixi understand why she felt awkward with Ling Han.

Different worldviews.

Thinking back, Ling Han was once a girl with minor flaws, but always positive and optimistic; both Youran and she liked playing with Ling Han.

Now... Ning Xixi let out a wry smile:

"I’m going to the restroom."

Ning Xixi left the table, leaving only Ji Yebai and Ling Han alone.

Ling Han stopped her frantic chopstick action and unabashedly stared at Ji Yebai.

He was truly the most handsome man she’d ever seen! Plus, he had money!

"Hands-off, are you here for fun, Ji Handsome? Want me to be your guide?" Ling Han giggled, her foot slyly brushing against Ji Yebai’s leg under the table.

Ji Yebai frowned and withdrew his long legs, feeling like the area she touched was crawling with snakes.

Ling Han’s gaze flickered, poking at the dish in front of her, "Ji Handsome, don’t be so cold. How about I share a secret, about Ning Xixi, okay?"

Ji Yebai: "I’m all ears."

"Oh my, why so formal." Ling Han sneered, a vicious curve on her lips, "Back when she was in junior high, Ning Xixi was quite popular, especially with a group led by someone named Long Ge. Once, they cornered Ning Xixi in a karaoke room, and she didn’t come out all night..."

Saying this, Ling Han made a "shh" motion, "Don’t ever tell Ning Xixi it was me who told you."

Then, she giggled coquettishly.

Ji Yebai also smiled, but his smile was chilling and bone-deep, like snow in the North Pole.

"Ling Han, I truly feel sad for Ning Xixi."

"When she saves a dog, the dog will at least wag its tail at her."

"Unfortunately, she saved a snake! The farmer’s snake!"

A farmer once warmed a snake with his body heat in winter, only for the snake to revive and bite the farmer to death.

Friends like Ling Han, aren’t they more terrifying than the farmer’s snake? More disgusting?
