I'm Secretly Married To a Big Shot [JENLISA] (1)

101-102

Rosé was speechless.

It wasn't possible to return a dish even at a small eatery.

Let alone at a place like this!

She was even more certain now that Bai Xiao and Zhang Yuwei were being deliberate.

But she had no idea what exactly they were thinking.

Jennie had never offended them before, and they hadn't had any feuds between them.

Why were they doing this so suddenly...

"Yeah, high-end places like this usually serve small portions. We were worried that it wouldn't be filling, so we added more dishes."

Bai Xiao and Zhang Yuwei were evidently on the same side.

"Moreover, didn't Jennie say we could order as much as we wanted? We didn't force her to say it, she said it herself. If she's worried that she can't foot the bill later, then she shouldn't have put on such a false front."

This was going overboard.

Rosé frowned. "Bai Xiao, how could you put it this way? Jennie was being nice to give us a treat, is this any wrong?"

Jennie could feel the tension rising and was afraid that they would start arguing.

She reached out and grabbed Rosé's hand.

"Rosie, it's fine. I offered to give a treat, so I hope everyone will enjoy this meal. Let's not get upset over this."

"It's fine even if we don't finish it. We could always pack the leftovers and take them away."

Rosé pouted. "I'm just saying that you're being nice to offer us this treat, but not everyone appreciates it."

"Bam-" Bai Xiao slammed her chopsticks on the table.

She turned towards Rosé and scoffed.

"Rosé, what do you mean by that?"

Zhang Yuwei as well and spoke in an unpleasant tone.

"It's not as if we were dying for this meal. Rosé, you don't have to make us feel like we owe Jennie a huge favor. If you feel that we're taking advantage of her here, then we can just go dutch."

Zhang Yuwei said this, but she surely didn't mean it.

She knew Jennie well enough to be sure that she wouldn't allow them to go dutch.

If they were to go dutch, she wouldn't be able to afford it.

Bai Xiao didn't know what she was thinking and immediately panicked.

"Why should we go dutch? It's Jennie who said she wanted to pay for this meal. She picked this place and it's so expensive, how
could we go dutch?"

"In any case, I can't possibly go dutch."

Bai Xiao made it clear first, just in case they decided to split the bill later.

She wasn't going to be able to afford it!

She saw just how expensive the dishes were when they were ordering them.

She did a quick calculation and concluded that it would cost roughly twenty to thirty thousand yuan.

"H-How could you guys be like that?" Rosé was furious.

"What do you mean by 'not dying for this meal'? Jennie was just being nice, and this is what she gets in return? Zhang Yuwei, Bai Xiao, aren't you guys being too much?"

The tension was building up terribly.

At this point, Zhang Yuwei and Bai Xiao had also realized that they had gone too far.

But it was too late.

They couldn't take their words back.

Since they had already offended her, there was no point in trying to salvage things.

Bai Xiao's expression went cold as she said, "Jennie, for this meal, were you planning to just give us a treat, or do you have other motives? Only you have the answer."

"Since things have turned so ugly, I don't think there's a need to have this meal anymore."

Zhang Yuwei stood up and said coldly, "Jennie, Bai Xiao is right, we aren't dying to have this meal. You had a luxury car to send us around and even gave us branded skincare products. And then you planned for this dinner at this high-end restaurant, just so that you could treat us to a meal? Simple as that?"

Jennie did not say a thing the whole time.

But when she heard this, she looked up at them expressionlessly.

Her eyes were cold and her attitude was completely different from before.

"Oh? Is it? Then tell me, what exactly am I treating you to this meal for?"

Zhang Yuwei was stunned for a while when she saw how cold her gaze was. She frowned even more and scoffed.

"You really want us to say it? Well, you're just doing this to boast about your charm. You're just trying to show off that the men you date are all rich and handsome!"

"Look, the moment Kai broke up with you, you went for a better man right away. You must be feeling so smug about how all the best men in the world are up for you to pick from."

"You're giving us these little treats and tokens so that we'd fawn over you, isn't it? Or do you want us to envy you for having a handsome and rich boyfriend who happens to be so generous towards you?"

"Exactly." Bai Xiao chimed in mockingly.

"You made it so high-profile as if you're afraid that no one knows you're dating a rich man. So what if you got the most outstanding man in the world? What has that got to do with us? There are so many rich men on earth, who wants to envy you?"

Their words got more and more bitter as they sang the same tune.

At this point, all their inner thoughts were spilled.

Jennie was shocked at first, but when she saw the jealousy in their eyes, she just found it all too ironic and pathetic.

Roommates for three years.

Even if they weren't exactly close, they had been getting along well.

She hadn't expected that Lisa's appearance would destroy three years of harmony with her He had only appeared in school twice, and that was enough for her roommates to eye her with hatred.

Women were terrible.

Honestly, Jennie would think that men like Lisa were terrible too.

"You guys are too much." Rosé had a look of disbelief on her face.

"How could you talk about Jennie like this? She isn't the sort of person you make her out to be! So what if she's found herself a handsome and rich boyfriend? If you aren't happy about it, you can find one yourself! You think that she's boasting and flaunting simply because your hearts are full of jealousy!"

"Jennie, just look at them. You take them to be friends, but they don't feel the same."

Rosé and Jennie were as close as sisters.

Hearing them insult Jennie like that had Rosé feel as if she was the one being attacked.

Now she truly understood how scary it was when women were jealous.

Bai Xiao and Zhang Yuwei always seemed nice and peaceful.

Who would have known that they were such people?

"Rosé, don't you talk rot." Bai Xiao mocked.

"You love fawning all over her, but we're not like you."
