Chapter 187: Miss finally understood

"Sister?" Ning Xin’er paused, and being called ’sister’ by the noble daughter of the Ling Clan, she indeed felt a bit flattered and pleasantly surprised. She smiled sweetly and said, "Since you’re calling me ’sister,’ I’m even less at ease letting you go back alone."

Ling Xuejiu was taken aback for a moment, realizing that Ning Xin’er meant well, and thus she stopped refusing her offer.

After Ning Xin’er escorted Ling Xuejiu and her company back to Ling Xuejiu’s villa, Ning Xin’er then said, "Miss Ling, we’ll be leaving now. If there’s anything you need, you can call me on my cell phone." With that, she gave her cell phone number to Ling Xuejiu.

Having noted down the cell phone number, Ling Xuejiu turned to Ning Xin’er, "Sister, don’t call me ’Miss Ling’ anymore, just call me Xue Jiu."

"Hmm?" Ning Xin’er smiled and said, "Alright then, Xue Jiu, we’ll be going now. Let’s stay in touch when we have time!"

"Sister, don’t you want to come in for a sit and have a glass of water before leaving?"

"No need, I have to go back and investigate today’s incident thoroughly. I’ll definitely come over to chat when I have time!"

"Alright then, come over when you have time, sister."

"Mm, goodbye!"

"..."

When Ning Xin’er left, she couldn’t help but give Leng Xuan a glance, of course, it was that kind of resentful look.

Although Leng Xuan noticed, he pretended not to see and entered the villa with the two young ladies!

"Xue Jiu, what’s wrong with you?" Li Mengjie looked at the crestfallen Ling Xuejiu and asked in surprise.

Ling Xuejiu, ever so obedient like a little kitten, said, "Xiao Jie, I’m going upstairs."

"Oh!" Although Li Mengjie was usually a live wire, when Li Mengjie became so subdued, she felt bored too and followed her upstairs.

In her room, Ling Xuejiu stared blankly at the poster of the God of Wind Racing Team. Wang Shuze was still Wang Shuze, still so handsome and charming. But ever since Leng Xuan barged into her world, Ling Xuejiu found that the image of Wang Shuze on the poster seemed to be losing its appeal to her.

Had Wang Shuze changed, or was she just tired?

With her status and beauty, she had pined for Wang Shuze for so long, but it seemed as if he had never taken her seriously. What did that make her?

For the first time, Ling Xuejiu found it ludicrous. What was Wang Shuze anyways? She, the distinguished daughter of the Ling Clan, wouldn’t covet him, would she?

But what about Leng Xuan?

If Wang Shuze amounted to nothing, what about him? With no background to speak of, and in terms of looks, he couldn’t outshine Wang Shuze either. But why did she still care about how he treated her?

Her heart was truly in chaos!

"Xue Jiu, Xue Jiu..."

"Ah?" Lost in thought, Ling Xuejiu was brought back to reality by Li Mengjie’s calling. She replied, "Xiao Jie, what is it?"

"What’s wrong with you?" Li Mengjie asked curiously.

"Me? Oh, nothing!" Ling Xuejiu said with a forced smile.

"Don’t say ’nothing.’ I called you several times just now, and you didn’t even respond," Li Mengjie said with a laugh. "Tell me, were you thinking about your Wang Shuze again?"

"Not at all!" Ling Xuejiu’s eyebrows knitted reflexively as she said, "I won’t think about him anymore."

"Hmm?" Li Mengjie was taken aback and then squinted her eyes, "Xue Jiu, you... couldn’t be falling for the Cold Bodyguard, could you?" For some reason, Li Mengjie felt a prickling sensation in her heart as she asked this question.

Stung by the suggestion, Ling Xuejiu raised her voice, "Xiao Jie, I won’t allow you to joke about this with me anymore. It’s impossible for me to like him, got it?"
