Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 486: First Encounter with Lu Ling (Part 2)

Jiang Xue was puzzled, unable to grasp the situation. However, she didn’t dwell on it too much and just looked at Lu Ling.

Lu Ling had always wanted to find an opportunity to meet Jiang Xue, but Commander Lu asked her to reflect in solitude, leaving her no chance.

Unexpectedly, she ran into Jiang Xue here. This was exactly like "what you seek is available without any effort."

Just as well, she also wanted to know what was so good about Jiang Xue that made Mu Qiancheng so devoted and unwavering.

So, she raised her head slightly like a proud peacock and asked, "Was it because of you that Ah Yi stopped and bumped into me?"

Seeing that Lu Ling was about to cause trouble, Ouyang Yi immediately interjected, "Lingling, it has nothing to do with Jiang Xue."

"How could it not be her fault?" Lu Ling glared at Ouyang Yi, pointed at Jiang Xue’s nose, and said, "Dare you say you didn’t stop because of her?"

"This?" Ouyang Yi didn’t know how to explain. He had indeed stopped just because he was surprised to see Jiang Xue.

But Lu Ling bumping into him was also partly her responsibility because she wasn’t watching where she was going.

However, one was the goddess he had pursued for a long time, and the other was someone the goddess disliked; anyone would know how to choose.

But Ouyang Yi didn’t want Lu Ling to blow things out of proportion, so he spoke up for Jiang Xue. After all, having a good mood for dinner was necessary.

Little did he know, by defending Jiang Xue, he was doing more harm than good, making Lu Ling, who was already planning to target Jiang Xue, hate her even more.

As if one Mu Qiancheng wasn’t enough, now there was Ouyang Yi too. They’ve only known each other for how long, and they were already speaking up for her.

Could it be that Jiang Xue was like a vixen, seducing every man she met?

Lu Ling looked at Ouyang Yi, at a loss for words, and then glared at him coldly before turning her aim back at Jiang Xue, saying, "Apologize!"

Jiang Xue looked at Lu Ling, then at Ouyang Yi, her gaze turning cold as she said, "Miss Lu, you didn’t watch where you were going, what does that have to do with me?"

After a pause, Jiang Xue pointed at Ouyang Yi and said, "As for him stopping, that has even less to do with me. I didn’t make him stop, he did it himself. If you’re looking for trouble, find a better reason, right?"

"Moreover, everyone was watching. I believe in the bright eyes of the public, rather than certain people who are blind."

Jiang Xue’s words were blunt, making Lu Ling’s face alternate between pale and flushed, leaving her speechless with anger. She hadn’t expected Jiang Xue to be so sharp-tongued, thinking she was an easy target.

"You?" Lu Ling pointed at Jiang Xue, wanting to say something but finding herself without words.

Jiang Xue looked calmly at Lu Ling, a trace of mockery in her eyes, then said, "Excuse me!"

With that, she walked past Ouyang Yi and out. She needed to see if Shangguan Wenbin had arrived yet; she didn’t have time to waste with an irrelevant woman like Lu Ling here.

It had been most of the day, and Shangguan Wenbin still hadn’t arrived. Who knew if something had happened?

Jiang Xue had just stepped outside when she saw Shangguan Wenbin hurrying toward them.

"Why so slow?" Jiang Xue couldn’t help but complain when she saw Shangguan Wenbin. Everyone was waiting inside, just missing him.

Yet here he was, taking so long to arrive. It should be noted that this place was very close to Shangguan Wenbin’s school, just a few minutes’ walk away.

Yet they had been waiting a full half hour.
