Xia Yangyang simply admired Gong Xue'er from the bottom of her heart. The saying "knows when to advance or retreat" suited her perfectly.
The words she just said—about her possessing a charm that lets men treat her well—indirectly suggested that Gu Qichen had asked her for the interview, owing to her attractive appearance. Moreover, this gave her a perfect excuse to withdraw gracefully from the potential embarrassment. However, she remained in her pitiful state with teary eyes, making Xia Yangyang look like the bully if she chose to retaliate.
Even though Xia Yangyang was upset, she didn't want to confront Gong Xue'er.
Recalling that the person in front of her was once a close friend whom she genuinely cared about for many years, Xia Yangyang felt as though her heart was pierced with a thorn.
Nonetheless, Xia Yangyang generously said, "It doesn't matter who conducts the interview. When it's ready, I'll add your name to it."
Gong Xue'er was stunned.
