Chapter One.
----------------
After the words were spoken, Lin Mengran realized she had been too impulsive and looked at Li Xinli with an apologetic smile: "You were right to be cautious before, I don’t blame you anymore, hehe..."
"We’ve known each other for so long, I understand your personality pretty well. I was just afraid that if I told you, you’d insist on going with me to confront my sister. But if we don’t go, I’d worry you’d think I’m cowardly, and if we go, I’d fear making a big mess that would be hard to clean up..." Li Xinli chuckled awkwardly, "To be honest, I am quite cowardly."
"Actually, you underestimate me. Even if I’m impulsive when first told, it only takes a moment for me to come to my senses..." Lin Mengran shrugged, "Otherwise, how could Lin Mengye never gain any advantage over me, right?
Besides, my impulsiveness depends on who it’s directed at. Because I’m familiar and close with you all, that’s why I get angry and fired up; for people I don’t care about, I wouldn’t be impulsive at all."
"Yes, yes..." Li Xinli nodded repeatedly, "I wasn’t thinking thoroughly enough, it definitely won’t happen next time."
Chuxia looked at the two amusingly: "Are you two putting on a double act here?"
"Not at all..." Lin Mengran explained seriously, "It’s just that when I’m with you all, my brain works slower, and I tend to say thoughtless things..." She said with an embarrassed smile, "Of course, I just realized this too; otherwise, I wouldn’t admit fault first, and then argue, hehe..."
"What do you want to do?" Chuxia looked at Li Xinli, "There’s only one class this morning; if you want to find Jiang Jie, I can ask Uncle Wang to accompany you."
"No need for you to come..." Li Xinli quickly refused, "You’re already so far along in your pregnancy, it’s not right to have you running around. Even if the Division Commander doesn’t blame me, I’d still feel bad.
Telling you all this is just to hear your advice. Although you’re the youngest among us, you are definitely the most mature in handling relationship issues."
"That’s true..." Lin Mengran nodded in agreement, "The youngest often thinks much further in these matters, unlike us, who panic and don’t know what to do when faced with affairs of the heart..." She added, looking curiously at Chuxia, "Given your age, you’ve never been in love, how come you have more experience than us?"
Chuxia felt a bit defeated, is this praise or critique?
Speaking of it, someone of her level in the original era was nothing more than a clueless rookie. Yet, upon coming here, she turned into the expert in everyone’s eyes...
"By the way, did your sister completely break up with Fang Jingwen?" Chuxia looked at Li Xinli and asked.
Li Xinlan and Fang Jingwen had always kept a sporadic relationship, every time it was mentioned, Fang Jingzi felt helpless, and the Fang Family really couldn’t do anything about Fang Jingwen; they could only let it be, hoping one day he’d see what kind of person he really likes, and whether she’s worth his foolishness. Now, with Li Xinlan so blatantly clinging onto Jiang Jie, does it mean she’s already separated from Fang Jingwen? If not, this would be an opportunity for Fang Jingwen to see Li Xinlan’s true nature clearly.
This thought suddenly popped into Chuxia’s mind, after all, Fang Jingzi is her close cousin-in-law, and if possible, she’d still like to help the Fang Family.
"I don’t know." Li Xinli shook her head, "You know, my sister and I have never gotten along, she never tells me about things like this. Mainly because she knows, if she told me, I’d just advise her, and precisely those words aren’t what she likes to hear, so how could she possibly come seeking discomfort herself?"
"True enough..." Chuxia sighed, looking at Li Xinli, "I was thinking, if this time your sister is two-timing, try to let Fang Jingwen see her true colors, would you mind?
Let me clarify, I’ve always regarded you as a friend, so when you answer this question, you must respond from your true inner thoughts, or else it would be disrespecting our friendship."
"I don’t mind..." Li Xinli looked at Chuxia seriously, "I’ve always disliked how my sister uses Fang Jingwen, and I’ve openly told Sister Jingzi and Sister Jingyi about her intentions.
If I said I had no feelings for Li Xinlan at all, that would be a lie; after all, she’s family related by blood, if she indeed ends up in trouble, I’d still reach out a hand to help her.
But that doesn’t mean I’d support her unethical behavior, I hope she can trip over in her relationships, and thoroughly understand her actions are wrong.
