Jiang Wenwen coldly snorted, "We have no relationship, right? Why are you looking for me?"

Xiao Xiao leaned against Wang Wei's shoulder, tilting her head in apparent surprise at Jiang Wenwen's words. "Sister Wenwen, you clearly said you liked me before and even shared your thoughts with me. Now, hearing you say this makes me sad."

The other female educated youth behind Jiang Wenwen looked at her in astonishment. Was she close to Xiao Ermei? How come they didn't know?

"What thoughts can I share with you!" Jiang Wenwen inwardly sneered. She had said those things in the field just to encourage Xiao Xiao. Unexpectedly, she was deceived by Xiao Xiao, and now she was telling lies with her eyes wide open. Was she trying to act cute after getting away with it?

Wang Wei, hearing that Jiang Wenwen had shared her thoughts with Xiao Xiao, became displeased. He looked at Jiang Wenwen as if she were a fox spirit trying to ruin their marital relationship.

Jiang Wenwen, feeling the pressure of Wang Wei's gaze, almost spat out blood. "I... really... have... no... good... relationship... with... her!" She gritted her teeth, emphasizing each word.

"What do you mean no relationship? You clearly told me about knowing things in the future, about the college entrance exam..."

"Enough, stop talking. Come with me!" Jiang Wenwen suddenly interrupted Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao smiled at everyone, "See, Sister Wenwen just spoke out of anger." Saying this, she was about to follow Jiang Wenwen into the house.

Wang Wei pulled Xiao Xiao back, and she soothingly squeezed Wang Wei's hand, gesturing for him to wait obediently. She leaned towards his ear and whispered softly, "Did you forget what I told you? Be a good boy and wait for me here."

Wang Wei gave a warning look at Jiang Wenwen before allowing Xiao Xiao to follow her into the house.

Once inside, Jiang Wenwen closed the door, leaving only the two of them in the room. Jiang Wenwen crossed her arms, looking at Xiao Xiao with a cold smile. "Speak, what do you want from me?"

Xiao Xiao sat down slowly on the only chair in the room. "Nothing much, just thought about what you said before about resuming college entrance exam preparation. I wanted to borrow some study materials from you."

"Do you also want to take the college entrance exam?" Jiang Wenwen looked Xiao Xiao up and down, sneering, "Not to underestimate you, but you didn't even finish elementary school. Do you think just anyone can pass the college entrance exam?"

Xiao Xiao showed no signs of anger and spoke softly, "There's a saying that goes, 'Where there's a will, there's a way.' Regardless of whether I can pass or not, I want to give it a try."

Jiang Wenwen exclaimed, "I didn't expect you to know a proverb. However..." She changed her tone, "Whether you want to try is your own business. Why should I help you?"

Xiao Xiao innocently blinked, "Because we have a good relationship~"

"Xiao Ermei!" Jiang Wenwen gritted her teeth, "If you don't speak properly, just get out. I explicitly tell you, I won't help, don't want to help, and won't ever help you!"

Xiao Xiao nodded in acknowledgment, "Actually, I knew you would say that, because you like Wang Wei!"

"You... you know?" Jiang Wenwen was surprised. Putting down her crossed arms, even if she tried to convince herself otherwise, the fact that she was coveting someone else's husband was unsettling. Now, being openly pointed out by the legitimate wife made her somewhat uncomfortable.

Xiao Xiao suddenly smiled, her eyes narrowing, stood up, walked to a spot about a fist's distance from Jiang Wenwen, stopped, leaned in close, and whispered, "Not only do I know you like Wang Wei, but I also know you've been reborn~"
