Rebirth in the 90s: Pack up and prepare for demolition

Chapter 258 Helpless Like a Scumbag

In the past, when she was having dinner with Ye Ke, she would refuse at first, but gradually it became a habit. Give her the opportunity to take action.

Lin Shuwan stared at Ye Ke as he put another shrimp into Xiang Qingyao's bowl.

Ye Ke was stunned for a moment after noticing this, and asked blankly, "You want to eat shrimp too?"

Lin Shuwan doesn't like shrimp, right? She prefers fish.

Lin Shuwan was asked about this right away. Well, when she first started eating with Ye Ke, Ye Ke had peeled shrimp for her. She politely ate one and then said frankly that she didn't like shrimp.

Well, it’s indeed not Ye Ke’s fault, Lin Shuwan shook her head at Ye Ke.

After Ye Ke successfully peeled the shrimp for himself and Xiang Qingyao, he reached out to the sweet and sour fish closest to him and gave the belly part to Lin Shuwan: "Strange, why is the fish on my side?"

After she picked up the fish, she directly switched the positions of the fish and the stir-fried vegetables in front of Lin Shuwan.

That's right.

Aunt Zhang glanced at the fish dish obscurely, hiding her achievements and fame.

Lin Shuwan happily buried her head in eating the fish and asked proudly, "If you bring it here, Xiang Qingyao won't be able to pick it up, right?"

Xiang Qingyao slowly bit the shrimp meat, swallowed it, and responded, "It's okay, I don't eat fish, I'm afraid of fish bones."

Ye Ke nodded beside him.

Lin Shuwan was not so unhappy after hearing this. Although Ye Ke remembered Xiang Qingyao's preferences, he also did not forget hers.

Lin Shuwan: "When does your school start?"

When are you leaving?

Xiang Qingyao: "Same as you, the day after tomorrow."

Just accept her fate, she can't leave for the time being.

Lin Shuwan: "What a pity. We have to wait until the long vacation to see each other again."

After all, she had never seen Xiang Qingyao here before.

Xiang Qingyao: "Not necessarily! Ye Ke has reserved a room for me. I can come over whenever I'm free."

Lin Shuwan looked at Ye Ke in shock, "What room?"

Ye Ke: "The one on the third floor? You've seen it."

Lin Shuwan remembered that she had visited Ye Ke's villa inside and out, but that room...

"I thought you left it for your sister?"

Ye Ke pouted and said, "Just reserve a guest room for her. My sister can't live here permanently. She'll be gone for a day or two at most."

Lin Shuwan was confused. What did that mean? Would Xiang Qingyao be staying permanently?

Xiang Qingyao saw that she looked so devastated, and she couldn't bear it, so she comforted her, "Alas, it would be a waste to leave it to me. I have to wait until I graduate before I can move in."

Lin Shuwan pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.

She already has a villa to live in, so it would be strange to ask Ye Ke to reserve a room for her, right?

But she felt really uncomfortable because Xiang Qingyao had this feeling but she didn't. They were obviously evenly matched before, but now Xiang Qingyao was so much better than her.

"Ye Ke is just like that. If someone treats her well, she'll do her best to repay them. For example, when she was in high school, Ye Ke often stayed at my house, and now she's trying her best to repay me."

Xiang Qingyao explained that it wasn't often, actually. Ye Ke knew her limits and didn't want to disturb them too much. Most of the time they did their homework together at her house, and Ye Ke would go back to school at a certain time.

It was not until his senior year in high school that Ye Ke became much more natural, and under her insistence, he tried to stay overnight.

Lin Shuwan understood and comprehended it.

She smiled and said, "That's true. When we bought the house, just because my dad helped a little, Ye Ke took my dad's words as if they were holy. He accompanied me to and from school every day, worried that something might happen to me."

Only then did Xiang Qingyao understand that there was another reason why Ye Ke always accompanied Lin Shuwan.

Xiang Qingyao glanced at Ye Ke and complained, "That's right, she's afraid of owing others anything. My mom is our English teacher, and every time she gives Ye Ke some extra lessons, Ye Ke turns around and forces me to do something tough, dragging me from the middle of the class to the top."

God knows what a sweet burden this was, she almost couldn't bear it.

Lin Shuwan nodded in agreement and moved her stool towards Xiang Qingyao. "It's more than that. I remember when school just started..."

In front of Ye Ke, the two of them put their heads together and started to criticize Ye Ke.

Ye Ke was shocked.

It turns out that I was the sacrifice that made their relationship warmer?

No? Is that right?

Ye Ke wants to join.

Ye Ke wanted to change the subject.

Ye Ke was rejected by both of them.

Ye Ke continued to eat in a depressed mood, and from time to time he glanced at the two people who were talking excitedly and no longer wanted to eat.

Aunt Zhang looked at the three people at the table and shook her head, not knowing what to say.

The little girl's mind is really a thought, and she must go back to the matter in detail.

Tell it to Wanwan’s mother.

Ye Ke sighed helplessly, and when he lowered his head, a smile secretly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

She did not notice the open and covert struggle between the two at the beginning, mainly because the content of their conversation was quite normal, and the topic was herself. Ye Ke was simply unable to hear their voice-over because she was in the middle of the crowd.

Until later, when Lin Shuwan looked depressed several times and Xiang Qingyao kept frowning, even if Ye Ke was a fool, he could see that there was some discord between the two.

But she had never dealt with this kind of situation before. At that time, she was really helpless like a scumbag. She wanted to coax one person, but didn't want to let down the other one.

They even dare not make any big moves, for fear of being in trouble on both sides.

Fortunately... later they had a common target to complain about. Although that person was herself, Ye Ke breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, they can finally get along well, right?

We really get along well.

But Ye Ke regretted it.

Ye Ke was lying on the bed, with different female voices coming from the left and right channels. One was a soft shout, and the other was a gentle scolding. Ye Ke covered his head with his hands, feeling extremely miserable.

After dinner, Ye Ke was about to take Xiang Qingyao to say goodbye.

As a result, when Xiang Qingyao saw Lin Shuwan's slightly envious look, she decisively invited her.

Just like that, Lin Shuwan followed happily with her pajamas in her hand.

Lin Shuwan was very happy.

Sleeping in someone else's bed? She'd never shared a bed with anyone other than her mother. Her most intimate experiences before were sharing a bed with others in the dormitory, and when she went to Qiong Province, she lived with Ye Ke.

But they were just living in the same space and sleeping in the same bed... Lin Shuwan felt it was novel and exciting.

The three of them packed up and lay down together.

Fearing that they would not be used to it, Ye Ke, the middleman, lay in the middle.

Who knew that these two people had such a strong desire to chat, and the topics of conversation were not limited to Ye Ke.

They chatted about everything, from the earth to the air, and even tried to find topics when there were none. When they talked about outrageous situations, they denounced them with a common hatred.

In addition, Xiang Qingyao is a gossip expert, and Lin Shuwan loves to listen to stories.

When the two of them were chatting happily, they didn't care at all about Ye Ke who was already numb in the middle.
