Chapter 17: No Rejection

Le • Not Responsible After Flirting • Yao: …

Big Sister, there’s no need to make such a bold comparison, right? These fierce words make me feel like I’m in a lesbian novel. It’s too scary! Le Yao thought.

“You don’t have to glare at me. I’m telling you, I told my old man I was taking a break from school to start my own business, and now you’re telling me you’re going to study. You’re being a scumbag, you know that?” Qiao Qiao put her hands on her hips.

“I’m sorry. I was wrong.” Le • Scumbag • Yao apologized hastily. “I’m guilty. I shouldn’t have flirted with you on my period. I shouldn’t have started off and dumped you. I shouldn’t have…”

Qiao Qiao was speechless.

“But I’m going to file an appeal.” Le Yao held up her hand in a gesture. “Even death row inmates have a chance to file an appeal. You can’t convict me on a whim.”

“Shoot.” Qiao Qiao turned and sat down, crossing her legs in a bossy way.

“Here’s what I think. Starting a business is something that can be done anytime and anywhere. We’re students, to begin with. If we give up our studies to start a business, that would be putting the cart before the horse, but we can start a business while attending school, right? Besides, as university students starting a business, it seems that various policies would be more favorable for us. Of course, what we want to do needs to be slowly calculated… What do you think?”

“Okay, whatever you say.” Finally, Qiao Qiao nodded. “But since I’ve been off school for so long, there’s no hurry to go back to school tomorrow. Let’s go have some fun first.”

Le Yao wanted to refuse. She didn’t really want to go out and have fun. After all, she had just become a divorcee. She had to look the part. If she went out to have fun so quickly, what if…

“Don’t say no. My little cousin will be back tomorrow. I have to attend his welcome party. You have to come with me. Why? Afraid people will find out you’re divorced? Afraid to go?”

“What’s there to be afraid of?” Le Yao sneered. “Don’t goad me. I don’t want to go purely because I think I have to set up a pitiful, abandoned woman image. But since you’ve already said so, screw the image. I’ll go!”

Actually, what she was too embarrassed to say was that although she had vowed to go back to school, the original owner of the body had not attended class for a year. She reckoned that she didn’t have much knowledge about the course. Besides, she had never come into contact with finance in her previous life.

Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if she failed the course?

It must be difficult!

“I know you love me best.” Qiao Qiao came over and kissed her cheek affectionately. “Come on. Serve me. It was tiring to fly.”

At this moment, the female lead, Yan Zimeng, rejected Yang Jinxuan’s suggestion to have a meal together. She wanted to go back and rest because she was too tired. The place she stayed was arranged by the company. It was at Tsinghua Park. Coincidentally, it was beside Lijing Apartments. One was Fifth Coast Road, and the other was Sixth Coast Road.

The only difference was that the Lijing Apartments were small high-rises, while the villas in Tsinghua Park Residences were all single-family villas.

However, they were all high-end residential areas with top-notch security facilities.

Yang Jinxuan insisted on sending her back personally.

“Brother Jinxuan, thank you.” Standing at the entrance of the villa, Yan Zimeng smiled at Yang Jinxuan, having no intention of letting him in.

“Mengmeng.” Yang Jinxuan looked at the girl in front of him with pity. “Ah Jue isn’t worth your persistence.”

“Brother Jin Xuan.” Yan Zimeng frowned. “How can it not be worth it? I really gave up when he got married previously, but now that he’s divorced, it means that he still has me in his heart…”
