CHAPTER 277: CHAPTER 216: LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER LIVE BROADCAST IS COMING

Long Wu excitedly slapped his thigh: "Damn, that kid actually guessed right! On Meng Meng’s mom’s birthday, he came to me rambling about love at first sight, then smitten at second glance, saying he wanted to pursue that girl.

I mocked him like crazy. I remember asking before, and wasn’t she already in a relationship? He kept arguing with me back then, and who knew he’d really be proven right!"

Long Wu animatedly narrated with dramatic gestures, then realized he was a bit thirsty and picked up the blue-and-white porcelain teacup on the table, taking a big gulp of water.

Li Si shook her head with amusement. "Xu Er is really hilarious. But what about the third glance then? It looks like Shasha might have someone chasing after her. If he’s serious, he’d better step up! But honestly, Wu, do you think they’re a good match?"

She noticed Bai Shasha didn’t seem as repulsed by Jia Yuejing as she used to be. If not, why was her face flushed the other day at Cherry Valley? Besides, Xu Er is undeniably funny, but when it comes to family background, she wasn’t sure if Shasha would accept him—she used to be quite antagonistic toward the wealthy!

"That’s a tricky one!" Long Wu shook his head. "Sisi, it’s not that Brother Wu likes preaching, but love can be pretty mysterious sometimes. What looks perfect to outsiders might not click for the couple themselves.

And yet, the ones who seem mismatched in everyone’s eyes often end up together. You can spot examples of this everywhere on the street. If you don’t believe me, just reflect on it yourself!"

Li Si nodded with a laugh and glanced at Leng Mochen. Were they mismatched in other people’s eyes too?

Leng Mochen rubbed her head gently, his gaze full of affection.

Suddenly, a man’s voice came from the staircase: "This fart makes sense!"

Xu Er had somehow made his way to the second floor, applauding as he praised.

Long Wu was instantly furious: "You’re the one farting nonsense when you talk!"

His words made Li Si purse her lips in laughter, and even Leng Mochen’s eyes were smiling. These two couldn’t stop bickering whenever they met, but they’d somehow patch things up shortly afterward.

Xu Er quickly realized his mistake and hurriedly said: "Wu, my bad! I was wrong, okay? Can’t I admit it? I just got caught up listening to what you said and used the wrong word! What I meant was, ’That statement makes sense!’ That statement makes sense!"

"Get lost! When did you sneak up here? And eavesdropping too? Why didn’t you make a sound? You’re part cat or what?" Long Wu made a mental note to dock money from the guy downstairs for not making a peep. Fortunately, nothing confidential had been said; otherwise, it’d all have been overheard.

Xu Er chuckled cheerfully, completely ignoring Long Wu’s words. He casually sat down next to Li Si and raised an eyebrow. "Sisi, why do you think I don’t suit your friend? I’m telling you, I’m pretty popular among the ladies, you know!"

Li Si couldn’t handle his woeful expression. Oh man, he even threw in a regional idiom! She barely managed to hold back her laughter. "I never said you two don’t match. It’s just that Shasha recently broke up with her boyfriend and is in the middle of an ’empty window’ period. But now, someone’s already trying to win her over. If you’re serious about her, then you’d better act fast!"

Hearing this, Xu Er suddenly lit up with realization and grinned. "Then I must! I got this. Strike first to gain the upper hand; hesitate and you’ll regret! Sisi, be a pal and call her out for me, won’t you?"

Li Si rolled her eyes at him. "You think people don’t have jobs? Come on, it’s work hours right now. If you want to ask her out, at least put some effort into it, okay?"

She wasn’t about to casually make decisions on Bai Shasha’s behalf. It didn’t matter how good a person Xu Er was; it wasn’t her place.

Friendship could only thrive when mutual respect for each other’s boundaries was upheld. Forcing personal wishes onto someone else wouldn’t do any good.

Long Wu impatiently shoved Xu Er away. "I think you’re delirious. Who woos a girl like this? Don’t say I never helped you, eh..."

Before he could finish, Leng Mochen’s phone suddenly rang, prompting everyone to turn their attention toward him.

His expression shifted as he answered the call, saying only a few brief words before hanging up.

"Who was that?" Li Si asked, curious about his unusual expression.

Leng Mochen glanced at the group, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly. "My guy tracked Qian Rouxuan and Leng Mohao entering Yu Hua Hotel one after the other."

"What the hell!" Long Wu couldn’t help swearing. Back to Xu Er’s hotel again? Recently, Qian Rouxuan and Han Mingzhe had gone at it fiercely several times at this same place. It’s like she just changed the man but not the venue. This woman’s got guts!

Xu Er frowned. "Leng Er, is it like last time again?"

Li Si instantly caught on—this smelled like another live dramatic showdown! She was utterly perplexed by Qian Rouxuan’s antics. Dating Leng Mochen in the past, having an affair with Yin Qi’s husband, giving birth to a child who ended up being Leng Mohao’s...

Just how did this woman’s brain work? What on earth was she thinking? Was she really that desperate for men?
