Chapter 525: Truth 4

Li Mengjie indeed had this intention, but since Xue Jiu said so, she had no choice but to agree, saying, "Alright, I just won’t mention Leng Xuan."

Ling Xuejiu was taken aback, wondering why Xiao Jie’s words sounded so odd. But she couldn’t quite pinpoint what was strange about them, so she asked, "Then, who asks first?"

Li Mengjie playfully blinked and giggled, "Xue Jiu, you go ahead and ask."

"Oh." Ling Xuejiu thought for a while but couldn’t come up with a good question, so she just asked casually, "Xiao Jie, what’s your favorite dish?"

Without hesitation, Li Mengjie replied, "Of course, it’s the dishes made by the Cold Bodyguard!"

"Huh?" Ling Xuejiu’s eyes widened with surprise, "You little brat, why do you keep bringing up Leng Xuan? Humph, besides, what I meant was, which particular dish is your favorite, not who makes the dishes you like."

Li Mengjie’s face flushed, and she chuckled with a sly smile, "Is that so? Teehee, Xue Jiu, you didn’t make it clear in the beginning. If you’d asked like that from the start, I wouldn’t have mentioned the Cold Bodyguard’s cooking. Let me think... My favorite dish, um, I remember now, it’s the green pepper pork stir-fry made by the Cold Bodyguard."

Ling Xuejiu was so annoyed that she rolled her eyes and said, "So, the green pepper pork stir-fry made by someone else isn’t your favorite?"

"Um~! It’s not as tasty when others make it." Li Mengjie candidly admitted.

For some reason, Ling Xuejiu felt a bit sour. Why were Xiao Jie’s words all revolving around Leng Xuan? After thinking it over, she said, "Fine then, you pass. Your turn to ask me!"

"Sure!" A mischievous smile appeared on Li Mengjie’s lips. She had long designed a trap in her mind hoping to lure Xue Jiu into it. But since the truth game had just begun, she didn’t want to reveal her cunning too soon. Pretending to have thought long and hard, she said, "Xue Jiu, what’s one dish you like to eat?"

"Definitely not something made by Leng Xuan." Ling Xuejiu reflexively answered. As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately regretted it a bit. She had just been wondering why Xiao Jie kept talking about Leng Xuan, and now she had dragged Leng Xuan into it herself. Could it be that she really cared that much about Leng Xuan?

No, that couldn’t be it. It must have been because Xiao Jie kept mentioning Leng Xuan that she had become confused. Thinking this made her feel a bit better, and she said, "What I mean is, the dish I like to eat isn’t made by Leng Xuan, it’s..."

"Um~! Then who makes it?" Li Mengjie teasingly said, "Is it Wang Shuze?"

"What are you talking about?" Ling Xuejiu was almost frantic, saying, "He’s definitely not my type."

"Um~! Then who is your type?" Li Mengjie feigned an innocent curiosity, "The Cold Bodyguard?"

"Huh?" Ling Xuejiu then realized what she had implied with her comments. Those dating shows on TV often used the line "You’re not my type," which means you’re not the kind of person I like. To say "you’re my type" implies that the person is someone you like. In her haste to respond to Li Mengjie’s pressing question, she reflexively denied any interest in Wang Shuze. Now, realizing what she’d done, her face turned red with anger, and she shot Li Mengjie a hateful glance, saying, "Xiao Jie, you... you little devil, you did that on purpose, didn’t you?"
