How could I do that to you?

"Since we are friends, we should think about each other, and in our relationship, I can only see me indulging you, what you like should be given to you, and the people you like should be given to you, so I will take it for granted that I will take a step back. Indeed, in the matter with Yue Jingfeng, I have given in, because I do not like him, and you like him, so I am willing to help you. But to me, this competition is very important. I've said it from the beginning, and because you and I are friends, you don't even want to compete fairly with me. " Gu Qingyao's eyes were filled with disappointment: "Xia Xue, we've known each other for so long, how can you treat me like this?"

Her tone was not angry, only full of disappointment.

This made Lin Xiaxue even more flustered.

She subconsciously reached out her hand, wanting to hold onto Gu Qingyao's hand, but then hesitantly pulled back. "Um, I didn't do it on purpose … I just want to ask if you can do it. "

"Actually, wasn't it also because of me that you were able to go with Yue Jingfeng this time? Otherwise, Yue Jingfeng didn't even think of inviting you in the beginning, right? Since that's the case, Xia Xue, I thought you'd be happier. "

"I am indeed..." Lin Xiaxue's intestines were about to turn green from regret: "It's because I'm not satisfied, this matter is indeed my bad."

Gu Qingyao softly said: "I thought you would be happy, so I did this, but you actually wanted me to let you win the match."

"It's really my fault, I was wrong. Xiao Yao, you were good to me, and I said something like that …" Lin Xiaxue grasped Gu Qingyao's hand tightly and said softly: "I'm sorry, I have to prepare myself. If Senior Jingfeng and I really win against you, it will also be because we are strong. I'll take it. "

Gu Qingyao said as her expression softened, "This is the Xia Xue that I know."

Lin Xiaxue pouted and said softly: "Your tone just now really scared me. I thought you wouldn't want to be with me anymore."

"I am indeed considering it." Gu Qingyao blinked her eyes and said with a faint smile.

Lin Xiaxue was obviously very nervous, "Are you serious …"

"I lied to you." Gu Qingyao laughed.

Lin Xiaxue looked at Gu Qingyao hesitantly, but Gu Qingyao had already changed the topic: "How has your family been recently?

"Ahh …" As Lin Xiaxue followed Gu Qingyao out, she said dejectedly, "Not good, they may really be getting a divorce soon."

"Is there such a thing?" Gu Qingyao was a little surprised.

Was there an accident in Lin Xiaxue's family in her previous life?

If he remembered correctly, because he had been chasing after Yue Jingfeng every single day, there had indeed been a period of time where he had left Lin Xiaxue in the cold. It was unknown since when Lin Xiaxue had stopped befriending her.

He had even never even heard of Lin Xiaxue's parents getting divorced.

Thinking up to here, Gu Qingyao lightly patted the back of Lin Xiaxue's hand and said gently: "Xia Xue, there are some things that we, as children, cannot control. Our parents' feelings are not going well, so divorce may be a type of release for them …"

"What do you know..." Lin Xiaxue sat down at the teahouse and spoke hoarsely, "You don't understand it at all. Your family background is good since you were young, and your family relationship is also harmonious. You don't even understand how important a divorce is to me."

Gu Qingyao looked at Lin Xiaxue in a daze.

Was she wrong?

There was a moment of grief and jealousy in Lin Xiaxue's eyes.

"My life is already miserable enough. In fact, every time I stand in front of you, I feel extremely inferior." Lin Xiaxue was obviously unable to control her emotions and said softly.

Gu Qingyao listened quietly and poured a pot of tea for Lin Xiaxue.

Lin Xiaxue slowly continued, "Actually, I had always thought that I could have a similar future to you. Perhaps it was because I had always been by your side, staying with you in everything else. How big of a difference there is between you and me. "

After a long while, Gu Qingyao then sighed: "Do you hate me?"

Lin Xiaxue almost failed to hold onto the cup in her hand and dryly laughed a few times, "Wh … "What..."

"Just asking."

"How could you ask that?" Lin Xiaxue's face was full of surprise and bewilderment.

Gu Qingyao looked up at Lin Xiaxue for a while, and said softly: "Xia Xue, actually, when I drugged that time earlier, I suspected you, but you kept denying it. I don't think I could possibly keep suspecting my friends."

Gu Qingyao's voice was so gentle and calm, but the bottom of Lin Xiaxue's heart was surging like stormy waves.

Her hands were shaking. "Are you crazy? How could I... How could he do that to you! Qingyao, we are friends. How long have we known each other? After so many years, although I am a little selfish on some things, but don't you know my character? Do you really think I'm going to hurt you? "

She spoke in a voice that sounded like she was in a hurry to get rid of all the suspects, and also like she was accusing Gu Qingyao.

However, from beginning to end, Gu Qingyao was incomparably calm.

After a long while, Gu Qingyao finally smiled, and pushed the teacup by her side a little: "So I didn't tell anyone. I also hope that this was just a guess that I shouldn't have made."

"This is the speculation you shouldn't have!" Lin Xiaxue's voice was a little louder, and even a little shaky.

Gu Qingyao nodded slightly. "That's good."

Lin Xiaxue bit her lower lip and stood up silently: "I'm not eating anymore, you eat it yourself. You think about me like that, it really disappoints me."

Gu Qingyao sat on the chair as she silently watched Lin Xiaxue run out the door.

Gu Qingyao closed her eyes tiredly.

"Young mistress..." When the waiter came over to serve the dishes, he looked at the empty seat across from him in shock, "Excuse me, are you still continuing..."

"Let's eat as usual. It's alright." Gu Qingyao rubbed her eyes and smiled calmly.

Xiao Ze quickly sat across from his and sighed, "Luckily Lin Xiaxue left, I just happened to feel that the squirrel cinnamon that Miss ordered today would definitely be very delicious."

Gu Qingyao propped up her chin and laughed: "It's a bit strange for a teahouse to have squirrel fish. I hope you don't step on lightning."

"Everything is ready." Xiao Ze very naturally shook his head: "Luckily my body's quality is good."

Gu Qingyao raised her eyebrows, and continued: "Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to follow Miss over the next few days."

Gu Qingyao laughed out loud and said: "Just tell Uncle Liang what you want to eat when we get back, and Uncle Liang can also make it for you."

"Hmm? It's not good to trouble Uncle Liang. " Xiao Ze blinked, his expression becoming more serious: "Why did Miss tell Lin Xiaxue just now?"
