Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 1392: 354: Fourth Sister’s High-Profile Return! _2

If Shangguan Xu were a penniless young man, she probably wouldn’t pay Shangguan Xu any attention.

Who doesn’t know how to sweet talk?

They were best friends, yet Adelle still said these insincere things to her.

Really, how hypocritical.

Meanwhile, Zhu Qianye also felt a sense of crisis.

From Adelle’s tone, she seemed unlikely to give up Shangguan Xu so easily...

It seemed she had to come up with another plan.

Zhu Qianye squinted her eyes and continued, "Though that’s what they say, Shangguan Xu doesn’t like you, Adelle. Matters of the heart should be mutual; one-sided love is fruitless."

Adelle paused in silence.

Zhu Qianye added, "Adelle, why don’t I introduce you to a boyfriend? You can date a bit first. If it works out, great; if not, you can remain friends, getting to know someone never hurts, we’re all young after all."

"I’ll think about it." Adelle scratched her head; she was all over the place at the moment.

Zhu Qianye smiled and said, "Actually, finding a boyfriend is killing two birds with one stone for you."

"How so?" Adelle asked.

Zhu Qianye replied, "First, it can divert your attention. Second, it can enrich your romantic experiences. Isn’t that killing two birds with one stone? It’s not like we’re in the old days; it’s okay to have a few boyfriends, see me, I’ve had two already!"

Unfortunately, there’s no eligible bachelor around her.

The only person she knows with a good family background is Adelle.

Although Adelle claims to be her good friend, she never thought of introducing any wealthy heirs to her.

Apparently, Adelle doesn’t consider her as a true friend either.

Since Adelle wouldn’t help her, she could strive on her own.

After meeting Ni Yang, Zhu Qianye became more resolute in her determination to marry into a wealthy family.

Adelle remained silent, walked to the movie ticket counter, and said, "Two movie tickets, please."

"Three yuan, thank you."

Adelle took out five yuan and handed it to the ticket seller.

Zhu Qianye pretended to take out her wallet, angrily said, "Adelle! We agreed I’d pay, why did you pay for the tickets! Seriously!"

Adelle smiled and said, "I’d like to have some soda, you go buy me two bottles, okay?"

"Alright." Zhu Qianye nodded and turned towards the soda stall.

As Zhu Qianye turned around, her smile dissipated entirely, she walked forward feeling extremely displeased, "She says I’m her best friend, yet she doesn’t even spare the money for a soda, how shameless to call me her best friend! Hypocritical! Disgusting!"

She just made a polite gesture, but Adelle took it seriously.

A bottle of White Pear soda costs one yuan!

Adelle is so wealthy, yet she has the nerve to ask her to buy soda!

A neatly dressed young woman was also buying soda nearby.

Upon hearing Zhu Qianye’s disgruntled words, she glanced up at Zhu Qianye, a flash of surprise in her beautiful eyes, then accepted the soda handed by the salesperson and walked past Zhu Qianye.

Soon, Zhu Qianye came back with two bottles of soda, jogging over.

"Adelle, here’s your soda."

"Thank you." Adelle said while unscrewing the cap of the soda, "Let’s hurry inside, there are only eight minutes before the movie starts."

It’s Sunday, the cinema was fully occupied.

Adelle took her seat according to the number, and next to her sat a young woman.

Wearing a light-colored T-shirt with a black blazer over it, her black hair tied up high, from the side she appeared very neat and spirited.

"I heard this ’Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ is hilarious, hopefully, it can help you forget your troubles." Zhu Qianye leaned in, whispered to Adelle.

"Mm." Adelle nodded, casually placing the soda on the armrest of her seat.

Three minutes later, the cinema lights dimmed completely, leaving only the big screen bright.

Adelle sat straight, leaning back into her seat; just then, her elbow accidentally knocked over the soda bottle.

"Glug."

The soda tipped over to the side.

Adelle immediately reacted, quickly grabbing the soda bottle, yet some soda spilled out, soaking the clothes of the young woman next to her.

"I’m so sorry, are you alright? I didn’t do it on purpose!" Adelle hurriedly apologized.

The young woman brushed off her clothes, unconcerned, said, "It’s no problem, just a little wet, it’s not winter anyway."

Though the young woman said it’s fine, Adelle still felt quite guilty.
