Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 684 - 685: Worse than a Beast

"Wah!" Ye Tiao lay sprawled on Shi Mei, her sobbing loud, "Why, does he think I’m too tomboyish? Why!"

"Nope, he just needs to change cities for work, and he’s not feeling the spark with you. That’s why he said that," Shi Mei, well-versed in these situations, comforted her while patting her on the back.

Ye Tiao’s crying subsided, "Then why be with me if there’s no spark? Isn’t he just playing with me?"

"Not really, we’re all at that age, aren’t we? Maybe he’s like you, never having been in love and wanting to give it a try, thinking that the spark might come after some time. When it didn’t, you both broke up," Shi Mei’s voice held a hint of helplessness and even a trace of amusement, "Look at yourself, you weren’t all that into him either, so now you’re just mad because you got dumped."

"That’s not true!" Ye Tiao felt that she had invested at least a tiny bit of feeling into this fleeting romance.

It wasn’t much, but she really wanted to see it through!

"You did," Shi Mei handed her two tissues to wipe her tears, "Or don’t you know your own heart?"

With sniffles, Ye Tiao took the tissues and wiped her nose, her voice choked, "But you said it was a mutual breakup, and I didn’t like him that much."

"Yeah, and you like this Lin Yuan less than you like the bar,"

"Of course, the bar is money! Money! Who doesn’t like money?"

"Yes, yes, yes. But compared to our bar, you still like my brother more~"

"Pfft!" Ye Tiao immediately denied it, "How could that be! Of course, the bar is more important!"

"So, do you like Xiao Ming?" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"I do not!" Firm and resolute, without hesitation.

Shi Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, "You really don’t like him?"

"Really don’t!" Ye Tiao’s tone was adamant, and she had mostly stopped crying, her voice much clearer now, "He’s just a little brat, okay? How could I possibly like him? I’ve always seen him as a younger brother since we were kids. If I liked my brother, wouldn’t that make me a beast!"

"Hahaha," Shi Mei couldn’t help but laugh, "So now your brother starts liking you, and if you don’t give him something in return, won’t that make you worse than a beast?"

"I..." Ye Tiao was cursing inwardly. After a second thought, it seemed to be true.

But why should she return the feelings just because Tang Jingming likes her?

She didn’t want to be that beast!

Being worse than a beast then so be it, at most she’d keep her distance from that kid in the future, to maintain a safe distance.

Ye Tiao had already discreetly added him to her danger list and noted it heavily in her mind.

Seeing that Ye Tiao’s emotions were indeed stable and that there would be no more issues, Shi Mei finally left the office and returned to the private room on the third floor.

Inside the private room on the third floor, Dongfang Xuanya and Gao Lian had already started playing a game.

They were throwing dice, and it looked like the situation was quite intense.

In front of Dongfang Xuanya were piles of cups, some empty, some still with drinks, and in front of Gao Lian lay a vast array of cups as well. Seeing Shi Mei return, Dongfang Xuanya enthusiastically called out, "Shi Mei, come on over, join us in the game!"

Gao Lian put out his cigarette, guessing that perhaps Shi Mei wouldn’t join them, and reminded her, "He seemed to have taken the kid out, you can give him a call and ask."

"Hmm, thanks."
