Chapter 67



67 Spendthrift

Ji Wenjing retorted.

“Am I wrong? She’s the stupid one! When her brother was captured by the Eagle Guards, she actually wanted us to help save him? At that moment, I wanted to curse her. How could she have the cheek to ask us to help? Did she really think we could go against the Eagle Guards for her? She thinks too highly of herself!”

Speaking of this, Wan Jiatong could not help but complain.

“Who in the capital doesn’t know how cruel the Eagle Guards are? Yu Pingping actually wants to drag us down. She’s too selfish.”

Yang Xianrong said, “What’s even funnier is that we just casually brushed her off at that time, but she actually believed it. She thought we would help her.”

She couldn’t help but laugh when she finished. She looked like she really thought this was funny.

Ji Wenjing and Wan Jiatong also laughed.

“That’s right. How can she be so stupid? She can’t even tell what deniability is.”

Yu Niaoniao was some distance away from the private room and could not hear the voices inside.

But she could clearly see that Yu Pingping’s face turned red, then pale. She tottered and looked as if she had received a huge blow. Clearly, the three people in the private room did not say anything good.

Yu Pingping trembled with anger, tears welling in her eyes. She had always treated Ji Wenjing, Yang Xianrong, and Wan Jiatong as her best friends. No matter what good things there were, she would leave a portion for them and not forget to bring them along.

That was why she felt the three of them would be duty-bound to help her when she needed them most.

But who would have thought the three of them did not treat her as a friend at all.

In their eyes, she was a stupid fool. Her sincerity was completely trampled under her feet! Anger, grievance, and resentment welled up in her and turned into a raging fire.

Yu Pingping’s rationality was instantly burned clean. She flung open the door and stormed into the private room.

The laughter in the private room stopped. The three of them looked at Yu Pingping in surprise. They had not expected Yu Pingping to appear at this time. They wondered how much of what they had just said had been heard by Yu Pingping.

Yang Xianrong braced herself and said, “Hey, when did you come? Why didn’t you knock on the door first? You shocked us by suddenly rushing in.”

Ji Wenjing tried her best to pretend that nothing had happened and said with a smile.

“Since you’re here, come and sit down. We’ve been waiting for you.”

Wan Jiatong pulled out a chair solicitously and said in a slightly fawning tone, “Come and sit here.”

Yu Pingping glared at them angrily, her eyes almost spitting fire.

“Stop pretending! I’ve always been good to you, but you’re treating me like this? Has your conscience been eaten by dogs?!”

Ji Wenjing’s smile froze.

It seemed that the other party had heard everything they had just said.

This was going to be difficult.

Yang Xianrong coaxed, “Hey, we said the wrong things just now. Don’t be angry. Come over and have a cup of tea to cool down.”

Yu Pingping strode over.

Yang Xianrong thought that the other party was willing to reconcile and heaved a sigh of relief. She hurriedly handed the teacup over.

Unexpectedly, after Yu Ping took the teacup, raised her hand and splashed the tea on Yang Xianrong’s face!

The tea had been on for a short time. It wasn’t very hot.

However, Yang Xianrong was still frightened and screamed.

“Ah! What are you doing?!”
