"Long ti no see."
Chen Yanfei's smile was very stiff, but she managed to keep smiling, displaying an extrely strong ntal fortitude.
After Pan Ge's previous unscrupulous and mutually damaging attack, which had been quite severe, Chen Yanfei had gone ho, reflected deeply, and fortified her ntal resilience. Now, she possessed the poise of a leading lady in a palace drama—her heart might shatter, but her composure would remain intact.
Seeing that her surprise attack hadn't broken Chen Yanfei's defenses, Pan Ge's fighting spirit imdiately ignited.
"Oh, right, it has been a long ti. I've missed you so much, Sister Yanyan. Did you miss ?"
The corner of Chen Yanfei's eye twitched involuntarily a couple of tis.
She still wasn't as devious as Pan Ge, unable to slip into character as naturally as breathing; dealing with Pan Ge was incredibly exhausting.
But she had begun to develop her own style: direct and decisive.
"Pan Ge, are we really that close?"
Pan Ge widened her eyes dramatically, her face a mask of feigned hurt. "You really think so? But I've always thought of you as a sister…"
Chen Yanfei gently pulled her hand away, her reply cool and calm. "There's no need. You and I both know we can't be friends."
"What a pity."
Pan Ge shrugged nonchalantly, turned to grab Han Lie's hand, and smiled aningfully at Chen Yanfei. "Actually, you know what? I really don't mind making a few more good friends…"
Ugh! Chen Yanfei almost exploded with anger. She couldn't fathom how Pan Ge could utter such shaless words so brazenly! Seriously, she had never encountered such an outrageous young lady!
However, she had a rough idea of Pan Ge's intentions—it was nothing more than an attempt to use such unconventional... words and actions to intimidate her, to make her shrink back in fear and voluntarily distance herself from Han Lie. Last ti, she had fallen for this exact ploy. Those shaless won, with their incessant talk of "primary wife," "official wife," and "sister," had thrown her thoughts into turmoil, ultimately leading her to distance herself from Han Lie.
Did Pan Ge sincerely want to acknowledge her as an older sister?
Pah! She was rely targeting her moral perfectionism, twisting the knife relentlessly. So young, yet so scheming and malicious!
Regardless of who was older or younger, Chen Yanfei could never accept the idea of two won sharing one husband, even though she already liked Han Lie a great, great deal. Yet, because of this, Pan Ge, who outwardly appeared to accept the situation and acted with imnse tolerance and magnanimity, naturally scored major points with Han Lie. Chen Yanfei understood this, but she was powerless to do anything about it. People are, after all, different.
"No. The way you treat friends? I can't say I agree with it. Let's just stick to our own paths!"
Chen Yanfei's response was resolute, effectively tearing away any remaining pretense with Pan Ge.
She was tired. She was no longer willing to swallow her grievances and compromise on this matter, even if the price was losing Han Lie.
The two locked eyes, and it was as if sparks were flying where their gazes t.
The surrounding students were all stunned. What was going on? How could those two be so familiar with each other, yet clearly be at odds?
"Um… you two…"
Hu Jing looked at Pan Ge, then at Chen Yanfei, hesitating to speak. She found the situation utterly surreal, yet incredibly intriguing.
In fact, many people present had their suspicions, but no one dared to believe it.
Pan Ge was stunning enough, and Chen Yanfei was the goddess in the eyes of the boys from Second High. Two such top-tier beauties... were they really fighting over Han Lie out of jealousy?!
Holy crap, my worldview is collapsing!
Wen Yu, with a hint of sour grapes, fanned the flas, laying the situation bare for everyone to see.
"Wait, I'm confused... Yanfei, you've known Lie's girlfriend for ages? Then yesterday, with Lie…"
That scumbag deliberately chose this mont to speak, yet he only told half the story, leaving a clever, suggestive gap for everyone's imagination to fill.
A buzz imdiately erupted among the classmates. They whispered to each other, all feeling that Han Lie was simply… too damn enviable, making them burn with jealousy and hate!
What gives him the right?! Is being handso that amazing?!
The boys felt like they were about to puke from all the sourness in their stomachs. No matter how they looked at Han Lie's handso face, it seed detestable. Driven by an 'if I can't have it, you can't either' ntality, they eagerly watched the drama, so even making strange noises to stir things up.
Yeah, fight! Fight! It would be perfect if both beauties took turns slapping his face and then both dumped him! That would be true justice!
The girls, however, had completely different thoughts. As they watched Han Lie, the more they looked, the more charismatic he seed.
Who cares if he's a scumbag or not? If two top-tier beauties are fighting over him, he must be sothing special. Look, even his wry smile is so handso, so heart-achingly pitiful…
Of course, enjoying the drama was still the most important thing right now.
Just as Wen Yu was smirking, the boys were eagerly anticipating, and the girls were buzzing with excitent, Han Lie tilted his head slightly and casually glanced at Wen Yu.
It was truly just a single glance, and his lips curled into a mocking smile.
Imdiately after, Pan Ge leaned even closer to Han Lie.
She had long guessed that Han Lie wouldn't behave himself after going ho. She didn't care whether the scoundrel behaved or not. In the end, wouldn't he still have to co obediently into her bowl?
Therefore, her smile didn't falter in the slightest, showing no sign of anger.
Wen Yu couldn't help but feel greatly disappointed.
Chen Yanfei, however, was genuinely stung by Wen Yu's words. She felt deeply wronged. I offered to accompany you to the class reunion, you said you didn't want to go, and then you turn around and show up with Pan Ge. It seems my place in your heart isn't much after all…
Realizing this, Chen Yanfei truly began to feel a wave of disheartening disillusionnt wash over her.
