“If it hadn’t been for you, he wouldn’t have rejected me! You know that he likes you, but you don’t like him, then why do you have to be so close to him and give him hope?” Chen Mengqi criticized.
“Chen Mengqi, don’t you think that you’re being ridiculous? It has nothing to do with you if I stay close to him. He isn’t your boyfriend, and you have no right to interfere in his personal affairs!” Although it wasn’t the first time that Chen Mengqi had said that to her, An Qian still thought that it was ridiculous whenever she heard it.
“Nevertheless, he said that he only likes you.” Chen Mengqi was jealous.
“So what? It has nothing to do with you,” An Qian replied.
“You…” Chen Mengqi didn’t know how to retort.
Who Le Zhengyu liked indeed had nothing to do with her, but because Le Zhengyu only liked An Qian she had no chance. She could only blame and hate An Qian.
At that time, a saleswoman walked over and reminded them. “Please do not argue in our store. There are other consumers here. Thanks.”
“As long as this miss shuts her mouth, we’ll be fine!” An Qian said. It was Chen Mengqi’s fault, not hers. As long as Chen Mengqi didn’t pick on her, she wouldn’t argue with her in public.
After that, An Qian ignored Chen Mengqi, turning around to shop for clothing. Although An Qian’s mood was affected, she was still interested in the fas.h.i.+onable clothes in front of her eyes.
An Qian pointed a dress hanging on the wall. “Please let me try this one.”
Chen Mengqi was furious, but it wasn’t the right time to continue arguing. She had already lost her face, so she left right away.
After Chen Mengqi was gone, An Qian said to Gu Ning, “I met Le Zhengyu when I was only 10. Our families have known each other for generations. Le Zhengyu and I aren’t family, but we are more than family. There is only a girl in my family, so he always takes care of me like he’s my older brother. Thus I’m used to having him by my side as my older brother. I can’t face his affection towards me for now, but I’m not running away from it either. He also knows that he’s only an older brother in my eyes, but he’s unwilling to give up. In that case, we have an agreement. If I can’t meet a man that I love before I turn 30, we’ll get married. I know it’s unfair to him, but the rules in love indeed aren’t fair. The one who falls in love first loses.”
An Qian told Gu Ning everything, because she needed to talk to someone right now.
Gu Ning agreed with An Qian on what she said. The rules in love indeed aren’t fair. The one who fell in love first lost.
At least, An Qian and Le Zhengyu truly cared about each other, even though they treated each other more like family. Nevertheless, even romance and love could become familial affection after marriage.
The fact that An Qian made the agreement with Le Zhengyu proved the possibility that she and Le Zhengyu might end up being family.
“Ningning, come on and have a look. If there is anything you want, let me buy it for you,” An Qian said.
The clothes in this store was a medium-level brand, and wasn’t very expensive, so Gu Ning didn’t hesitate. She picked a hat that she liked. “I think that this hat isn’t bad.”
