Chapter 2: Are You Really This Innocent?
"Hey, Ye Chen Xi, do you call yourself a good friend? I'm in this state, and you not only don't comfort me but also mock me," Shen Xi Yao looked at her pitifully.
Ye Chen Xi couldn't stand her pleading eyes but still decided to give her some advice.
"Alright, alright. Next time, if you encounter such a situation, call the police first instead of chasing alone. And next time, look both ways before crossing the street. You're lucky this time; you only injured your leg. What if it had been more severe?"
Shen Xi Yao knew she was worried, pouting, "Okay! I know I was wrong. I'll be careful next time! Stop lecturing me."
Ye Chen Xi tapped her head, "Being playful won't help. If I don't scold you properly, you won't remember."
"Sister Chen Xi, please stop scolding me," Shen Xi Yao shook her hand, looking at her with a pitiful expression.
Seeing Shen Xi Yao's pleading look, Ye Chen Xi softened and stopped scolding her.
Shen Xi Yao remembered seeing Chen Ze Yu and Ye Yun Ting together at the hotel entrance last week. She cautiously looked at Ye Chen Xi and cautiously asked, "Chen Ze Yu hasn't contacted you recently, has he? How are you two doing?"
Ye Chen Xi smiled, "No, he said he was going on a business trip for a week last Wednesday. He should be back in a couple of days. I figured he'd be busy, so I didn't bother him."
Shen Xi Yao was shocked. She had seen him with Ye Yun Ting at the hotel last Friday night. Could she have been mistaken? But she was sure!
Seeing her distracted, Ye Chen Xi nudged her arm, "What's wrong?"
Shen Xi Yao thought it over and decided to remind her, "Chen Ze Yu and Ye Yun Ting... you know how she is. Aren't you afraid she'll snatch him away?"
Ye Chen Xi was taken aback by her words but then smiled, "I trust Ze Yu. What's mine is mine, and what's not, I won't keep."
Shen Xi Yao was frustrated by her lack of concern, "You're so naive! Don't ignore what I'm saying. Men think with their lower parts, and with your lack of passion, no man can endure it. You've been together for two years, holding hands at most. Ever seen a couple like that?"
Ye Chen Xi sighed, "What's the rush? Isn't this something you should wait to fully give yourself until marriage?"
She liked Chen Ze Yu, but every time he tried to embrace her, she felt hesitant, let alone kissing.
But he always respected her when she refused, never forcing her. So she had some feelings for him.
Shen Xi Yao was exasperated, "You're too innocent! Fine, listen to me and be careful with Ye Yun Ting!"
Ye Chen Xi smiled, "Alright, I'll listen to you. Are you hungry? Should I get you something to eat?"
"Go ahead, I'm starving," Shen Xi Yao said, not arguing further.
Ye Chen Xi bought some food for Shen Xi Yao, stayed with her for a while, then left the ward to go home.
