My ex-girlfriend's best friends are getting restless right after the breakup.

Chapter 65 Harmonious Coexistence? Dream on!

"What do you mean, stealing crystals..." Bei Weiwei blushed. "Chen Bo and I are mutually in love!"

"Come on," Zhou Lingyan scoffed. "Do I not know you? You had a crush on me for three years but didn't dare to say anything, yet the moment we broke up, you immediately launched your attack. You call this premeditated!"

Bei Weiwei felt embarrassed by what she said, but she didn't refute it.

Zhou Lingyan looked at her and suddenly asked, "Weiwei, do you really think Chen Bo is that good? Worthy of what you're doing?"

Bei Weiwei nodded without hesitation: "It's worth it."

"Even if he and Xu Yueqing..." Zhou Lingyan paused, "had prior experience?"

Bei Weiwei blushed again: "That was in the past, and...and Chen Bo is very respectful to me. He said we should...we should have a sense of ceremony."

Upon hearing the words "sense of ritual," Zhou Lingyan's anger flared up again, but she held back.

I have to hold back; I can't lose to my best friend!

My best friend knows how to pretend, so why can't I?!

Then she thought of herself. Last night, she had offered herself to him, and Chen Bo had stopped because he suspected she was a virgin.

This man isn't completely scumbag, pshaw!

"Lingyan," Bei Weiwei asked cautiously when she saw her silence, "what did you talk about with Chen Bo when you came back last night?"

Zhou Lingyan snapped out of her daze and, seeing her nervous expression, suddenly had a mischievous thought.

She curled the corners of her lips into a meaningful smile: "Last night... I almost had to lean against the wall to stay upright."

"What?!" Bei Weiwei's eyes widened, and she jumped up from the chaise lounge. "You...you and Chen Bo...you guys..."

"Why are you so nervous?" Zhou Lingyan looked at her calmly. "I was just kidding."

Bei Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, but then became wary again: "Really? You're not kidding me!"

"Why would I lie to you?" Zhou Lingyan shrugged. "But to be honest, Chen Bo... he's got some skills. I can't handle him. Last night he kept praising my legs, he touched them so much they were almost raw."

Bei Weiwei was horrified, feeling both jealous and angry: "How...how could you let him touch your leg!"

"Why can't I?" Zhou Lingyan retorted confidently. "It's my leg, I can let whoever wants to touch it, it's none of your business!"

"You!" Bei Weiwei was speechless with anger.

However, even though Xu Yueqing had already had experience with Chen Bo, she still couldn't let go of him.

Thinking about it this way, Bei Weiwei suddenly felt that she didn't seem to have anything to be angry about.

Zhou Lingyan is such a beautiful woman, so how can you blame her boyfriend for taking the initiative?

Is it because your boyfriend is young, energetic, and too normal?

Only those who are seventy or eighty years old, or those who are not normal, would be indifferent to beautiful women.

Zhou Lingyan watched Bei Weiwei's changing expressions, secretly pleased, but outwardly remained indifferent: "Alright, stop acting like a dumped little wife. Let me tell you, with men, keeping a tight rein is useless; you have to make him willingly stay by your side."

"How can I make him do it willingly?" Bei Weiwei said sullenly.

"How would I know?" Zhou Lingyan rolled her eyes. "I've never been in a relationship, but I think you should at least have some career of your own, instead of revolving around him all the time. Look at Xu Yueqing, she used to treat Chen Bo like a nanny, and now she regrets it, right? Why? Because she discovered that Chen Bo wasn't a nanny, but a treasure. But what about you? You're treating Chen Bo like a treasure right now, be careful he doesn't take it for granted."

Bei Weiwei nodded thoughtfully: "You're right, I can't revolve around him all the time."

"That's right." Zhou Lingyan nodded in satisfaction. "So, you should still buy the house, but don't rush him to move in. Let him live here with me, use my recording studio, and owe me a favor. That way, he'll have to think twice before dumping you later."

Bei Weiwei: "...Lingyan, are you helping me, or are you helping yourself?"

Zhou Lingyan declared matter-of-factly, "Of course I'm helping you! And I'm helping myself too! We're sisters, we share the good times, the bad times, the bad times... cough cough, the bad times, we share the resources!"

Bei Weiwei looked at her speechlessly: "Lingyan, what you're doing is wrong. Chen Bo is a person, not a resource."

"I know, I know." Zhou Lingyan waved her hand. "I was just using an example. Anyway, we're now on a united front against a common enemy—Xu Yueqing's ex-girlfriend! As for who Chen Bo will end up with, it's all about ability and fair competition, how about that?"

Bei Weiwei thought about it and felt that the suggestion seemed...not bad?

It's better than falling out with Zhou Lingyan, which would make Chen Bo think he's petty and not the best choice for a wife.

"Okay." She nodded. "But Lingyan, you can't... lay a hand on Chen Bo while I'm not here."

"I'll try my best." Zhou Lingyan thought to herself with disdain. This was as difficult as asking me to never touch a man for the rest of my life. Was it even possible?

Before Bei Weiwei could say anything more, Zhou Lingyan's phone suddenly rang.

She glanced at the caller ID, her expression changing slightly. She made a "shh" gesture to Bei Weiwei and answered the phone: "Hello, Director Wang... Yes, I'm in Haicheng... What? You're joining the crew tomorrow? So soon?... Okay, I'll make the arrangements."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Lingyan scratched her hair in frustration: "So annoying, the new drama started filming ahead of schedule, and I have to join the crew tomorrow."

"So soon?" Bei Weiwei asked with a delighted expression. "Then you're leaving again?"

"Okay, I have to go out." Zhou Lingyan sighed and looked at Bei Weiwei. "While I'm gone, keep an eye on Chen Bo and don't let Xu Yueqing take advantage of the situation."

Bei Weiwei nodded: "Don't worry, I will."

Zhou Lingyan thought for a moment and then said, "Also, if Chen Bo wants to use the recording studio, let him use it, but don't let him bring back any random people. Especially Xu Yueqing!"

"Understood," Bei Weiwei replied.

The two chatted for a while longer, and the atmosphere gradually eased.

Although they both still had their own ulterior motives, they at least made up on the surface.

When Bei Weiwei came downstairs, Chen Bo happened to come out of the basement.

"Are you done talking?" Chen Bo asked.

"Mm." Bei Weiwei nodded and walked to his side. "Ling Yan is going to start filming tomorrow."

Chen Bo asked in surprise, "So suddenly?"

"Yes, the director notified us at the last minute," Bei Weiwei said. "Chen Bo, while Lingyan is away, you can stay here and use the recording studio. I'll come to see you often."

Chen Bo asked, "What's wrong? You're not in a hurry for me to move into your big house anymore?"

Bei Weiwei blushed: "No rush, let's talk about it after your competition is over and your job is stable. Besides... Lingyan is right, I can't revolve around you all the time, I need to have my own career too."

Chen Bo was somewhat surprised: "Zhou Lingyan told you this?"

"Yes." Bei Weiwei nodded. "She's right. I need to learn to be independent and not rely on you too much."

Wow, they're so easy to fool.

Chen Bo felt he couldn't lie to her too much in the future. If he went to Xu Yueqing's place to stay overnight a hundred times and got caught once, he would have to admit that he had done it a few times. He couldn't keep it all a secret.

"Weiwei, you're fine, you don't need to change anything."

"I need to change. I need to become better so that I can be worthy of you."

Chen Bo was speechless. You're a rich and beautiful woman, and I'm a loser. Who's unworthy of whom?

Having a girlfriend who's obsessed with love is so great!
