CHAPTER 140: CHAPTER 140: DELIBERATE IMITATION

"Miss Ye, Yuexin is my junior! She’s also one of the few friends I have in Jin City! We accidentally ran into each other downstairs just now, and when she heard Miss Ye was hospitalized, she wanted to visit you. But she was afraid Miss Ye wouldn’t like it, so she asked me to speak on her behalf!" Ruan Zhitong laughed, trying to ease the tension.

Although she didn’t know the grievances between them, neither of these two seemed inherently bad, so there shouldn’t be any major hatred! Since Su Yuexin had asked her earlier, she didn’t want to not give her face, so she could only reluctantly play the mediator!

Ye Anxin’s expression remained unchanged, and she spoke slowly and carefully, "Miss Ruan, you’re a good person, so I don’t want to put you in a difficult spot! As for Su Yuexin, I don’t like her, no matter what, I just don’t! So, it doesn’t matter who’s speaking for her; I won’t change my opinion or attitude towards her! I hope Miss Ruan can understand!"

"I’m sorry for my negligence!" Anxin’s words couldn’t be clearer! Though she didn’t directly say that she and Su Yuexin were arch-enemies, she made it clear to everyone present that she could never be friends with Su Yuexin! Since they’re not friends, naturally, she has no right to stand in the hospital room.

Listening to Ye Anxin’s strong words just now, Ling Yueyue couldn’t help but give a thumbs up, "Ye Anxin, you’re impressive! So commanding! Even though I’ve known you for over ten years, I’ve never seen you so assertive before! Well done!"

A trace of embarrassment flashed in Su Yuexin’s eyes. She bit her lower lip tightly, took a deep breath, and forced herself to show a sincere smile, speaking softly, "Miss Ye, I think there’s a misunderstanding between us!"

Ye Anxin responded immediately, her attitude unwavering, "There’s no misunderstanding! There never will be! No matter what you said before, just based on your past relationship with the uncle, we’ll never be on the same side! Even more, there can never be any other relationship!"

Su Yuexin’s eyes suddenly reddened, she snorted forcefully, feigning a pitiful look, and said with a choking voice, "I really just came to apologize today! To apologize for my rudeness last time! I was too impatient, too angry, so I spoke recklessly! I hope you can forgive me!"

Ye Anxin’s attitude remained unchanged, "I’m not blaming you, so there’s no talk of forgiving you! So, you can leave now!"

In her twenty years of life, she had never been so firm in her stance before today! Nor had she been so tough on someone before!

There’s no way around it, regardless of what Su Yuexin’s current intentions are, just thinking about how she almost married the uncle before and how her return this time was to compete for him made her feel uneasy! She just couldn’t bring herself to like her.

Seeing herself being so humbled and seeking reconciliation, yet Ye Anxin actually humiliated her in front of so many people, Su Yuexin’s face immediately flushed red! The pitiful look from just now vanished.

Ye Anxin didn’t care how bad Su Yuexin’s face looked now, she directly said to the butler, "Butler, see the guest out!"

"Miss Su, please!" The butler also had a very poor impression of Su Yuexin, and upon Ye Anxin’s command, immediately gestured for Su Yuexin to leave.

Su Yuexin finally couldn’t hold back and shouted out furiously, "Ye Anxin, don’t be so insensible!"

"Humph...!" Ye Anxin merely let out a cold laugh, offering no response.

"Fine, very fine! Ye Anxin, just you wait and see! I’ll see how long you can stay arrogant!" Su Yuexin clenched her fists tightly, spat out her words vehemently, and left without turning back.

The atmosphere, originally quite harmonious, became somewhat strange due to Su Yuexin’s appearance.

Although Ruan Zhitong didn’t know what exactly happened between Ye Anxin and Su Yuexin, seeing their tense confrontation earlier, she realized things weren’t right, and quickly apologized, "Miss Ye, I’m sorry, I didn’t know your relationship was so strained! Otherwise... I wouldn’t have brought Yuexin up!"

With the person she disliked gone, Ye Anxin’s face resumed its smile, "It’s okay, it’s not Miss Ruan’s fault!"

"Then Miss Ye, have a good rest, I won’t disturb you any longer! I’ll go check on Yuexin now!" After saying this, she quickly greeted Ye Anxin and rushed away.

Ling Yueyue stared at the door, watching Ruan Zhitong’s departing figure, unable to snap out of it for a while.

Noticing her unusualness, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but nudge her shoulder, "Yueyue, what’s up with you? What are you daydreaming about?"

Ling Yueyue didn’t withdraw her gaze but instead asked thoughtfully, "Anxin, who are those two?"

"That Su Yuexin was originally supposed to be the uncle’s wife, but ended up running away on the day of getting their marriage certificate! So, by coincidence, I got the certificate with the uncle!" Ye Anxin slowly told Ling Yueyue what she knew.

As she listened further, Ling Yueyue’s expression became stranger.

Ye Anxin touched her forehead, concerned, "Yueyue, what’s going on with you?"

Ling Yueyue slowly refocused her gaze on Ye Anxin, her expression serious, "Anxin, don’t you have a feeling?"

Ye Anxin asked perplexedly, "What feeling?"

Ling Yueyue’s expression was complex, "Haven’t you noticed that these two women look a lot alike?"

Ye Anxin didn’t even think about it, directly smiled and denied, "How could they be alike? They’re not at all!"

Ling Yueyue glared at Ye Anxin, "How is that not alike, look at them, same long, flowing hair, same pink dress, even their initial impression! This is way too similar, don’t you think?"

"Similar? I really don’t think so!" Ye Anxin blinked her eyes, unable to imagine comparing the sharp and harsh Su Yuexin with the pure and beautiful Ruan Zhitong.

Ling Yueyue poked Ye Anxin’s forehead, helplessly saying, "Silly girl, I don’t know what to say about you! The two of them not only look alike but also their temperament is very similar! If they hadn’t said they were senior and junior, I would’ve thought they were related sisters!"

Just now, when Ruan Zhitong suddenly appeared, she couldn’t help but marvel at her beauty and purity!

But when Su Yuexin appeared again, she was only shocked!

She was shocked, how could two non-related sisters have such similar temperament and looks.

No —

How should I say it!

No...can’t say alike!

Should say, Ruan Zhitong is more ethereal, purer, and more elegant than Su Yuexin! Her temperament seems innate, as if she was born with it.

In comparison, Su Yuexin seemed a bit deliberate, she even wondered if Su Yuexin was deliberately imitating Ruan Zhitong!

These two women’s temperaments are so similar, is this a coincidence or something else?

She absolutely didn’t believe such coincidences happen in the world!
