Chapter 1088: Chapter 1088: Just Overheard Someone Talking About Oneself

Li Shengxiao couldn’t stop her in time; she had already run off to find the landlady. In no time, she returned with a new bowl she had exchanged.

“Ha, this one’s fine now. The landlady misunderstood earlier and took what I said about adding extra vinegar for you seriously, thinking you liked it sour, which is why she specially took care of you and added an extra serving of vinegar.” Rong Yan stuck out her tongue, “This bowl should be fine; I had her add a sausage to it, you try it.”

She had run quickly to find someone and came back just as fast, her cheeks flushed with an enticing rosiness, reminiscent of a juicy peach, inviting longing glances.

Li Shengxiao gazed at her intently before picking up the chopsticks to try it.

Indeed, it tasted normal now.

“How is it, no problems now?” Rong Yan’s clear black and white eyes looked at him.

Li Shengxiao nodded, “Mm.”

Hearing him say there were no problems, Rong Yan ate her own meal with peace of mind.

She had been craving the hot and sour noodles and finally got to taste them; her appetite was excellent. Combined with the appetizing sour and spicy flavors, she finished a large bowl in no time.

She didn’t know if it was just good luck or if she had been too popular lately.

Simply eating noodles outside, she overheard her own name.

“You know that recent gossip? I saw it, it’s about that female celebrity hooking up with a wealthy guy. That’s normal! Women these days are all so pragmatic, always eyeing money, and let’s not even talk about the beautiful ones. As if they would date us ordinary folks instead of clinging to the wealthy, you’re just naive. Female celebrities are alright to look at, but I never seriously like anyone, to avoid getting upset if their image collapses.”

“Rong Yan is not the person you’re describing. I became her fan because I like her songs, she doesn’t seem like what you said.” A girl softly defended her.

“Come off it. Is she a pure ‘phony girl’ amidst the muck? Isn’t it the same, her dating the rich for their money and resources? You’re just too naive. All women are like that, I suggest you stop chasing stars, especially those female celebrities with bad reputations. It’s better for girls to remain innocent; I can’t stand it if you turn into someone like her.”

“No, Rong Yan is not like that.”

“You don’t know her, how could you know she’s not? Like I said, if she wasn’t, she wouldn’t be looking for wealthy men to date. How come she doesn’t know about us ordinary folk? In the end, isn’t it because she despises that the money isn’t enough? What do you think that guy has more than me, besides being richer? Not to brag, but if I were wealthy, I could snag her too, believe it or not?”

The girl fell silent, and the man got even more carried away, blurting out, “Let’s say, if I were taller and better-looking, would you be with me? I’d definitely have to chase after our boss’s daughter for my future. Look, being naive and innocent in front of me is fine, but if you’re this clueless in front of my friends, how could they hang out with you? I don’t need you to help me with my career, but at least you should be presentable. Right now, I may not have money, no car, and the house is rented by you, but I’m sure to make something of myself in the future. If you keep being childish, what am I to do? I’m afraid in the end, we can only break up…”

“Xiao Bei, don’t be like this.” The girl was frightened by the word ‘break up’ and sat there, pale, wringing her fingers.

“I’m being serious with you; tell me if you’re not childish, still believing in true love for female celebrities. Where’s all this true love you talk about, if not just mutually taking what one needs…”
