"Holy shit! For real?" Xiao Xu dropped the peanut he had been fiddling with for a while, looking incredulously at Wen Suihan.
Wen Suihan appeared very calm, and he didn't offer any further explanation.
Zhang Qian asked, "Then what's the deal with Jiang Yi and Xici?"
Wen Suihan put down his wine glass and said with a frank face, "It's nothing but a play Jiang Yi staged for her family in cahoots with Xici. They aren't in a romantic relationship."
Xiao Xu expressed his disbelief, and retorted, "Suihan, we've all been friends since childhood. I don't side with either you or Xici. I'm not sure about Jiang Yi, but I can tell from the way Xici looks at her that it's not just acting. Don't be too clever by half and ruin the brotherhood between us."
Wen Suihan's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.
He pondered for a moment, then said, "Let Jiang Yi make her own choice. If she truly likes Xici, I won't cling to her."
