Chapter 521: Turning Down Gently
As soon as Li Weiyun’s words came out, Qiao Yanjue’s face immediately sank and he shouted in a low voice, “You really are drunk!”
With a bitter and resigned face, Li Weiyun argued loudly, “I didn’t drink anything!”
Today was really important! Why would she drink?!
Even if drinking gave her courage, before the matter was handled, she could not let alcohol spoil things.
In fact, she should have said this to Qiao Yanjue in the room, but Huo Zijun was there too.
And, for whatever reason, Huo Zijun wouldn’t leave them alone, no matter how much she gave him hints.
Fortunately, Qiao Yanjue came out, and she followed, finding a place where they could talk.
It just didn’t occur to her that Qiao Yanjue would be so indifferent even though she was giving up her girlish reserve.
“You must have been drinking.” Qiao Yanjue had a serious expression on his face. “Look at you, talking nonsense.”
“I didn’t!” Li Weiyun’s eyes were slightly red from agitation. “You do like me, don’t you?”
Qiao Yanjue was annoyed when she kept pressuring him.
“I don’t like you, we’re just ordinary friends.”
Ordinary friends? Not even good friends?
Li Weiyun felt as if her heart had been stabbed several times, and the blood flowed like water.
“You…” Her chest rose and fell sharply. “You can’t be so cruel…”
Qiao Yanjue was impatient, as if he was back to those times when girls professed their love to him.
Since childhood, because of his good looks and privileged family, there were many girls who liked him, and there were even more girls who were brave enough to profess their love to him.
However, he was not like other boys, who enjoyed the pursuit of girls. He especially hated being professed to by a girl he did not like.
So, no matter how good that girl was, if she professed her love to him rashly, he would not let her down gently, and if he was in a bad mood, he could even be very harsh to her.
Because he had rejected so many girls, even his friends called him a heartbreaker who was destined to be alone.
After all, there were not many men who were as particular as him.
If a girl professed her love to them, and if she was not annoying, then they would first see if they could grow some feelings… Why did he need to reject them directly?
Moreover, he refused the girls in a particularly brutal way, with the rejected girls crying enough to fill a river.
Li Weiyun had also seen his cruelty, which was why she hadn’t dared to confess her love before.
Li Weiyun had always felt that Qiao Yanjue rejected all those girls because they weren’t good enough.
In order to be worthy of Qiao Yanjue, she had been working very hard to make herself better.
Now she bit the bullet and confessed her love first, but she got the same result as the other girls?!
Oh no, there was still a little difference.
When Qiao Yanjue rejected other girls, his att.i.tude was quite direct, and sometimes he even told the delicate girls to get lost!
Today, his refusal was quite gentle, and he also helped her with the “drunk” excuse.
But regardless of how gentle the refusal was, it was very cruel for Li Weiyun.
“You’re a good girl, you’ll find your true love eventually.”
Despite his impatience, Qiao Yanjue held his temper and turned Li Weiyun down gently.
This was not easy. After all, he always did it the simple and rough way.
If not for their many years of friends.h.i.+p, he would have just turned around and left.
It was only a pity that the tenderness he thought he had used was still a knife to Li Weiyun.
She gritted her teeth, “You just like Xia Xibei’s kind of s.l.u.t who can be with any man, don’t you?!”
“Li Weiyun!”
