Ying Xiaoxiao pursed her lips. “You make it sound as if something will happen to her if Morphy’s not there with her. Doesn’t she have us?”
“Why? Are you jealous?” Rosiley teased with a smile.
“Who’s jealous?” Ying Xiaoxiao gave her an angry glance.
Rosiley smiled but did not say anything. Her smile was deep with meaning.
“Okay, okay, I’m jealous. I mean, Yayoi always keeps everything from me and she just started dating Morphy and she’s already willing to let him help her! I’m really not happy about this.”
She was speaking the truth. When she thought about how her years of friendship with Yayoi could not be compared to her relationship with Morphy, whom she had just started dating, she felt frustrated for real.
Rosiley shook her head with a helpless smile. “You… ”
“What’s wrong with me?”
“Nothing.” Rosiley smiled and said nothing more.
Feeling unsettled, Ying Xiaoxiao pushed her plate to the side angrily. “I don’t want to eat anymore, it’s horrible.” Then, she picked up the drink and took a big gulp.
Seeing this, Rosiley raised her thin brows. Why was she being so childish?
“I’m going to find a boyfriend too.” Ying Xiaoxiao slammed the drink bottle heavily on the table, looking annoyed.
“Are you sure?” Rosiley looked at her suspiciously.
Ying Xiaoxiao lifted her chin arrogantly. “Of course, you have a husband, Yayoi has a boyfriend. Next time when we go out, you guys will be in pairs and I’ll be all alone. I’ll feel left out.”
These words sounded so familiar, as if she had said them before.
She still remembered how Yayoi had replied to her.
Rosiley pondered for a moment and the corners of her lips curled. “You can be with Corey.”
Yes, Yayoi had said the same thing before.
Ying Xiaoxiao replied with a strong, “Hmph! No! I’m going on a blind date.”
“A blind date?” Rosiley thought that she had heard her wrongly and was so shocked that her tone of voice went up a few pitches.
“Yea, tomorrow’s the weekend, my dad arranged a blind date for me. I didn’t want to go at first, but now that I think about it, it’s probably good for me to go and meet him.”
Rosiley was really scared by her words and quickly tried to talk her out of it. “Xiao, don’t do silly things! What if you meet someone weird?”
“Don’t worry, I’m so outstanding, others would only recommend someone who is as outstanding as me.”
Her shameless proclamation caused Rosiley to swallow her words of persuasion back down.
“Then, I wish you the best!” Rosiley grinned.
Ying Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes. “Rosiley, why do I feel like you’re waiting to see a good show?”
“You are thinking too much. You are my good friend, of course I wish you a smooth blind date!”
The emphasis on ‘you’ triggered goosebumps all over Ying Xiaoxiao’s body.
“Rosiley, can you speak normally?”
Rosiley put the soup bowl on the plate, then stood up and picked up the dishes. “As for me, I still have a lot of things to do, so I’m not going to continue talking nonsense with you.”
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the tray return counter.
Seeing this, Ying Xiaoxiao quickly stood up. “Wait for me!”
Ying Xiaoxiao carried her plates and quickly chased after her.
