She felt that Jing Chen was completely different from what Su Wan had said.
This reaction stunned Bai Lian.
She was silent for a moment. Seeing that Jing Chen still had the same attitude, not showing any signs of being touched or happy.
Bai Lian felt a little defeated. She hesitated for a moment before she could not help but ask, “Jing Chen, you still like me, don’t you? If you’re just trying to teach me a lesson, I’ve already learned it. Can you tell me so that I can be at ease?”
Jing Chen was dealing with the documents for this period of time. Because many things had happened recently, the current situation was very urgent. Apart from the necessary matters and going to the old mansion, Jing Chen was generally busy in the company.
When he was in the company, he was silent most of the time.
Bai Lian’s words made him raise his eyebrows and he asked curiously, “Why would you suddenly think that?”
It seemed like women’s thoughts were very interesting.
Just like Su Wan. He would never be able to guess what that woman was thinking.
Bai Lian pursed her lips and her mind was racing. Should she tell him that Su Wan looked for her?
Since there was a problem with their relationship, wouldn’t it be nice if she added fuel to the fire?
“Su Wan came to look for me. It seems like she already knew that you didn’t like her at all, Jing Chen, so she was very flustered. Then… she came to look for me, mocking me, saying that I, a cripple, actually had the audacity to think about you. She just wanted me to leave by myself.”
Bai Lian sounded aggrieved. Her eyes turned red as she looked at Jing Chen pitifully.
With just a slight twist of her head, Lin Xiu understood what Bai Lian meant.
She immediately pushed the wheelchair in Jing Chen’s direction.
Jing Chen put down the documents and started to think about the meaning behind her words.
It was impossible for him not to be shocked. He was even angry at Su Wan for making decisions on her own, but did Su Wan really mean what Bai Lian said? After some thought, that was indeed the case.
Jing Chen’s gaze turned deep.
Bai Lian looked at his frown and felt very happy. She felt that this was a wise move.
She reached out and placed her hand in Jing Chen’s, then said earnestly, “Jing Chen, I don’t mean to blame Su Wan. I’m actually quite happy. When she said that you liked me, I didn’t believe her. Your reaction towards me during this period of time has been too cold. It really made me sad.”
Jing Chen immediately retracted his hand and looked at Bai Lian. He said honestly, “To be honest, I am suspecting my feelings for you now, so I can’t be sure.”
“—”
Bai Lian was stunned for a moment. A trace of shock flashed in her eyes, but the seriousness in Jing Chen’s words was more convincing than Su Wan’s.
She panicked for a moment. “What about you and Su Wan? Do you not like her anymore, as she said?”
Unexpectedly, Jing Chen fell silent.
After a long while, Jing Chen did not answer her question. “Actually, I’m wondering if this is your trick again. I really can’t think of a reason why Su Wan would look for you. Tell me, if you could do something like that, wouldn’t it be easy for you to pull off such a small trick?”
Jing Chen’s words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, making Bai Lian stand rooted to the ground. She looked at him in disbelief and retorted, “No, Jing Chen, it’s not like that at all. Why are you suspecting me like this? Didn’t I admit to everything I’ve done? I will never admit to something I’ve never done!”
Jing Chen said meaningfully, “That’s what you said when I went to look for you that night. Bai Lian, sometimes I wonder why my feelings for you changed and I have hesitations. Maybe I understand now.”
“Ever since that night, I’ve had a different opinion of you.”
“—”
Bai Lian’s lips were trembling. She was not afraid of anything, but she was afraid of losing Jing Chen.
She trembled as she pulled out her WeChat chat with Su Wan.
It was a message from Su Wan.
Bai Lian handed him the phone and gritted her teeth. “Look, look at it yourself. I can’t fake this. Once you click on it, it’s Su Wan’s number.”
Jing Chen glanced at it and returned it to Bai Lian without even clicking anything.
He said with great confidence, “You can even make a fake recording seem real. You want to fool me with a chat interface?”
