Chapter 81: Do You Like Me?

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Yun Xiangxiang understood how it felt. It was just like how she viewed Song Mian.

She admired Song Mian's talents and looked at him with admiration. That was why she couldn't feel any love toward him. This was a distance created by inequality. No sane person would choose to seek their own doom.

Perhaps the people at school weren't as calm and rational as she was. Some of them probably did it out of their inferiority. Or perhaps they didn't dare to easily attempt pursuing her. They were scared of the crowd's humiliation and ridicule if they weren't good enough.

Men had more false pride and ego than women did.

Besides, everyone in the school worshipped her as a goddess. The influence of subjectivity would make those who liked her think that they were only admiring her like how a fan to their idol would.

"Ai," Yun Xiangxiang sighed wistfully. "I have never felt how it is to have someone pursuing me."

She got together with Ruo Feiqun in her previous life thanks to the company's collaboration strategy. They were chained to each other and started off as a symbiotic relationship. They naturally got together later.

She couldn't recall how they confirmed their relationship. It was probably because of the long publicity stunts that made everyone think that they were a thing. It was as if the lie had become the truth. There was really no courting involved.

"Xiangxiang, you're being dishonest," Ma Linlin and the others glanced at each other.

Tao Manni even took a lozenge out and played it around her fingertips.

"It's not what you're thinking. He's nice to me because he owes me his life."

Song Mian had never made any declaration about pursuing her. Even Song Qian couldn't be certain about it. Even though she had decided to seek clarification from Song Mian, she wasn't conceited enough to think that Song Mian had feelings toward her.

"I don't believe it!" Tao Manni denied it, "Even if he really owes you, he wouldn't be this meticulous unless he has a thing for you. Who would care about someone else's necessities in life unless they loved them?"

"Manni is right. If what you said is true, he should be very capable. Someone like that could have repaid you in one go if he wanted to. Even if you don't wish for anything right now, he could give you what you need by the time you need it. He didn't need to keep tabs on your every movement and be so gentle in aiding you," Ma Linlin shook her head too.

"There must be something behind it. Come on, fill us in on it." Zhu Yuan immediately came over with her roommate Chu Ting in tow.

Feng Xiaolu and the others spilled the beans to both of them when they didn't see any signs of Yun Xiangxiang stopping them.

Yun Xiangxiang went to a quiet spot by herself. She didn't have any experience of being pursued or pursuing anyone in her previous life. On top of that, Song Mian took meticulous care of everyone in the hospital, so she took it for granted.

However, what Ma Linlin said just now gave her a sudden realization.

It was true. She had already agreed on the terms with Song Mian. He didn't have to concern himself about her this much if he didn't have any other thoughts about her.

She admitted that she couldn't really go into such detail if they were just friends. Just like how she, Song Meng, and Li Xiangling couldn't take such great care of each other. And they were the best of friends.
