Chapter 262: Chapter 260: I Really Envy You

"Wen Qiao, you know, I’m so jealous of you." Lin Ruochun’s voice choked up in the recording and she continued, "I spent the afternoon with you at the mall, and Brother Jinghen said you could buy whatever you wanted and that I should accompany you. He even offered to reimburse me. Why don’t I have such a great fiancé, wah—"

"Also, you scared me before and even snapped at me on set. I felt so wronged, wah—"

"You don’t even—"

Before the recording could finish playing, Lin Ruochun, who had been petrified from the first sentence, finally broke free and pounced like a tiger seizing its prey, snatching Wen Qiao’s phone. Wen Qiao didn’t even think of dodging; it was grabbed from her in an instant.

Lin Ruochun frantically pressed the pause button, then deleted the recording, and finally, locked the screen and stuffed the phone under her buttocks, her whole face red as a cooked shrimp.

"And you recorded it! How despicable!"

Wen Qiao, leisurely and comfortably, propped her hands behind her head as a pillow, swaying her feet while speaking, "I have something even more despicable. For instance, I made a backup of that recording. Even if you delete it, it’s still there."

Catching her breath heavily, Lin Ruochun’s hands slowly formed a circle as she reached toward Wen Qiao, "I’m going to kill you—"

Wen Qiao flipped off the bed and ran down, standing by the bed and provocatively curling a finger at Lin Ruochun, "Try me, kid."

Lin Ruochun also got up from the bed and even grabbed a pillow, chasing after Wen Qiao to hit her.

As Wen Qiao ran toward the door, she didn’t forget to continue taunting Lin Ruochun.

Engrossed in their antics, neither noticed the door being pushed open from the outside. Wen Qiao, turning her head to look at Lin Ruochun while running forward, collided with someone by accident.

"Ouch."

"D*mn..."

Due to the law of equal and opposite reactions, Wen Qiao and the person she bumped into both staggered backward.

Lin Ruochun instinctively caught Wen Qiao as she fell toward her; once they stabilized, they both looked up toward the doorway.

The two people they saw at the door mirrored their own situation: the one supporting was Wen Qiao’s agent, and the one bumped into was Lin Ruochun’s agent.

"......"

Eyes met, and the room went instantly silent.

About five minutes later, Jiang Yao and Wen Qiao walked out of Lin Ruochun’s room one after the other, though their demeanor was noticeably different.

One marched solemnly with head high, the other walked with a bowed head, hunched back, and careful steps.

Back in Wen Qiao’s own room, Jiang Yao walked straight to the couch, while Wen Qiao dutifully closed the door and tiptoed to where Jiang Yao was sitting, standing obediently in front of her.

Jiang Yao, arms crossed and legs crossed, sat upright like a disciplinarian looking at Wen Qiao, "Tell me, what happened."

"It was... Song Qian invited us for a barbecue yesterday. Lin Ruochun got drunk, clung to me, and wouldn’t let me leave, so I stayed in her room to take care of her overnight, and then you guys came back."

Jiang Yao snorted coldly, about to say something, but Wen Qiao immediately started apologizing, "I was wrong, Sister Yao. I shouldn’t have gone out late at night for barbecue without controlling my diet, ignoring your advice. There will never be a next time. Although I have a metabolism that doesn’t easily gain weight, you said that once I start gaining, it’ll be too late. As a female star, I need to stay aware and keep my figure in check at all times."
