Chapter 661: Chapter 661 He Doesn’t Like You
Qiao Yin’s tone was especially serious: “How can you be so sure that Chen Yuan doesn’t want anything from you? You’re too involved to see clearly. If he really cared about you, he wouldn’t keep borrowing money from you.”
Yet, Lu Yanxi still stood by her belief: “Chen Yuan has been going through a tough time recently, that is why he borrowed money from me. And the first two times, it wasn’t him who borrowed the money, it was his friend who came to me. Chen Yuan didn’t even know about it!”
However, Qiao Yin, as an onlooker, saw things more clearly: “He must know! Even if he didn’t know beforehand, he should return the money to you once he found out.”
“He isn’t being nice to you because he likes you. A man who likes you wouldn’t borrow money from you since he would lose face. Any man with a tad bit of self-respect wouldn’t allow himself to borrow money from the girl he likes.”
“If he’s short of money, he will ask his friends or relatives, or even borrow from a bank, but he won’t borrow from someone he cares about.”
“Yan Xi, haven’t you realized it yet? Chen Yuan doesn’t like you.”
The color drained from Lu Yanxi’s face: “He…he…he doesn’t like me?”
It might be cruel, but better to help Lu Yanxi wake up from her illusions, so Qiao Yin gave a firm nod: “Yes!”
Lu Yanxi became quiet.
She was unable to figure out whether Chen Yuan liked her or not; sometimes she felt he did, but then again, she wondered if he was simply a kind person, and that it wasn’t affection that he felt for her. He was so gentle and considerate that she might have mistaken his kindness.
She could choose not to believe what others said.
But she trusted Qiao Yin.
In fact, she knew it herself, it wasn’t seemly for Chen Yuan to borrow money from her repeatedly.
Especially the most recent loan, because she was out of cash – all her money was invested in the auction house – so she had not immediately given Chen Yuan the money, promising to give it to him later.
In those days, Chen Yuan was notably cold towards her.
His warmth revived only once she sent him the money.
However, she had been deceiving herself, finding various reasons to absolve Chen Yuan.
Now that Qiao Yin had exposed the truth, she couldn’t lie to herself anymore.
Tears welled up in her eyes and she looked at Qiao Yin, choking out, “Yinyin, why doesn’t he like me? What… What’s wrong with me?”
A twinge of pain echoed in Qiao Yin’s heart.
She quickly hugged Lu Yanxi, “There’s nothing wrong with you, you’re wonderful, he’s just not deserving of you. Don’t doubt yourself, it will lead to depression.”
She knew exactly how Lu Yanxi felt.
When Lu Lingche wanted a divorce, she had asked herself the same question – where did she falter?
She had sacrificed everything, her life revolving around Lu Lingche, taking care of all his daily needs, doing everything without complaint. So why did he still insist on a divorce? Why was he attracted to Lan Yuyi who wasn’t considerate towards him, instead of her?
But later she realized, no matter what you do, some people will never like you.
At these times, one should decisively leave him, start a new life, meet new people, because he isn’t worth your continued efforts.
Leaning on Qiao Yin, Lu Yanxi cried out loud, “Yinyin, he used to say that my family’s resources are too good, being with me made him feel pressured. So, I never dared to showcase my wealth before him, I never introduced him to my friends as I was afraid he would feel inferior, uncomfortable.”
Qiao Yin felt sad for her.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
No wonder Lu Yanxi only dared to introduce her to Chen Yuan. It was because she cared about Chen Yuan’s feelings.
Lu Yanxi’s other friends were likely wealthy like Xie Xingchen.
If Chen Yuan felt pressure just being with Lu Yanxi, being around her wealthy friends would probably shatter his frail self-esteem!
For him, Lu Yanxi indeed had been cautious all along, painstakingly preserving his pride!
