“What do you mean?” She frowned at Zhu Zhao, somewhat disbelieving.
“Yanyan, Xu Yang pretended to befriend me just to get close to you. Now he’s getting even bolder and actually wants to pursue you. I treated him like a good brother, and yet he’s trying to steal my girl. It’s simply too much! You must not be fooled by him!” Zhu Zhao looked at Jiang Yanyan with a gaze that was both affectionate and concerned.
If one could overlook his pig-like face, it might even be somewhat touching.
A hint of disgust flashed in Jiang Yanyan’s eyes. She thought, what did he mean by steal his girl? She had made it clear that they were no longer in a relationship. Why was he pretending to be so deep in feelings now?
Zhu Zhao, however, thought she was disgusted by Xu Yang’s actions. His expression became even more smug. He provocatively challenged the clenched-fist Xu Yang, “Xu Yang, you better see it clearly. Yanyan will only like me. I advise you to give up this idea. With your background, you’re not worthy of Yanyan at all. Don’t think about being a toad and eating swan meat! This time, I’ll let it slide because we were once brothers! You better behave!” He spoke as if he was being magnanimous, but his eyes flickered with coldness.
Let go?
Not a chance. He just wanted to act in front of Jiang Yanyan as if he were a loyal and generous man, hoping to attract her back!
As for Xu Yang, if he didn’t take him down, he wouldn’t be called Zhu Zhao!
A flash of hurt crossed Xu Yang’s face. He looked at Jiang Yanyan with a complicated expression and opened his mouth, wanting to tell her that Zhu Zhao was not a good man and was just using her. But would she believe it if he said it?
She would surely be furious, thinking that he had hurt her beloved man and was shamelessly stirring trouble between them!
Luo Xi felt anxious just watching him hesitate.
Indeed, he was a blockhead. No wonder in the previous life, Jiang Yanyan died without knowing he had always liked her!
Luo Xi sighed and stepped forward. “Classmate Zhu Zhao, if I remember correctly, after you were with my sister, Yanyan mentioned more than once that she wanted to break up with you, right? Then how come she suddenly started liking you again? I didn’t know about this. Yanyan, do you know?” She raised an eyebrow at Jiang Yanyan.
Jiang Yanyan took two steps back, distanced herself from Zhu Zhao, shook her head and said, “I don’t know. I stopped liking him a long time ago!”
If Zhu Zhao’s face could still be seen at this moment, it would surely be livid with anger.
The people around them exchanged bewildered glances. They initially thought that it was a couple in love interrupted by a third party, only to realize it was one-sided affection!
Compared to Zhu Zhao’s ugly expression, Xu Yang suddenly looked at her with surprise, as if it was a sunny day.
Jiang Yanyan felt a bit flustered under his intense gaze and shyly averted her eyes.
“Since that’s the case, then Xu Yang has a chance to pursue her. Why is it considered stealing in your case?” Luo Xi pretended to ponder and stroked her chin.
“Exactly, it’s really self-inflicted.”
“I heard it was because he cheated first, and then Jiang Yanyan cut ties with him. He’s so shameless. He deserves to be beaten!”
“Scumbag!”
“…”
Zhu Zhao’s face turned red. “That’s not true. Yanyan and I were promised to each other since childhood. We are in an engagement relationship. It was that woman who seduced me first, and I’ve already completely cut ties with her.”
