CHAPTER 706: CHAPTER 472: SPECULATION (6K+) _3

In front of both of them, she couldn’t say much, she could only find an opportunity to talk to Lin Wenbin later. She knew he truly treated her as his closest sister, genuinely protecting her. However, given Zhou Mikang’s personality, this really wasn’t a good approach.

Of course, she also needed to talk to Zhou Mikang and make him understand that Lin Wenbin protected her like this only because he had heard too many unfair critiques about her, and after getting to know her again, he decided to give her the most support.

While she was mulling over this, the two men had already ceased their hostilities, turning their swords into plowshares, and had begun eagerly discussing a topic common among men—military affairs.

Lin Chuxia just rolled her eyes, apparently misunderstanding men and worrying for nothing. Seeing the two of them like this, it looked like they could gradually become close friends without her intervention.

Wang Jing whispered into her ear, "You’re really lucky, both your husband and your brother care so much about you."

"You’ll meet a man who cherishes you just as much," Lin Chuxia blinked at her, "unless you’re starting to feel lovestruck? Don’t tell me you’ve fallen for my brother?"

"I know my place, I won’t make the mistake of overreaching anymore," Wang Jing laughed and shook her head, "A man like your brother is great, but he definitely wouldn’t belong to a girl from my kind of background.

Plus, I can tell he has no romantic interest in me. Well, why would he? I’m too ordinary to catch his eye. Wu Jingbo, maybe."

Lin Chuxia looked at her amused, "How did we end up talking about Wu Jingbo?"

"He has something..." after a moment of contemplation, Wang Jing said, "A kind of grandeur that men of his stature would like in a girl."

"Haha..." Lin Chuxia laughed, "Senior, you really have changed. If it were before, you wouldn’t admit someone else’s qualities."

"People need to improve, after all. You think my progress is all talk?" Wang Jing lowered her voice even more, "You think I’m stupid? I’ve noticed a long time ago that Wu Jingbo also likes Director Jing. She’s just better at hiding it. I guess she felt pretty bad when she found out Director Jing was engaged. You can’t tell me you didn’t know about this; I won’t believe it."

"I really didn’t know," Lin Chuxia looked at her surprised, "before you mentioned it, I had never thought about it. I only knew Cheng Guo liked her."

"Hmm, I could tell Cheng Guo liked her. Otherwise, Li Xiaoru wouldn’t have quietly left. Girls have the sharpest intuition about these things, like me. Even though I’m not as smart as you are, when it comes to my own emotional issues, I see them more clearly. I bet when it comes to Zhou Mikang, your intuition must also be particularly sharp."

"I’m really not sharp about him. I knew about him and Ye Meiru a long time ago, not needing any sharpness. As for others, I haven’t noticed them yet."

"He’s too remarkable. No ordinary girl could delude herself into liking him without reason. So, I guess the more you interact with people in their circles, the more you’ll find that many people inexplicably resent you. I guarantee one hundred percent of the women who resent you are the ones who like Commander Zhou."

Lin Chuxia looked at her, amused, "Senior, how many times have you been in love?"

"Not even once..." Wang Jing glared at her discontentedly, "Just because I haven’t been in love doesn’t mean I don’t understand emotional matters. I’m just the less fortunate one who always liked men who didn’t like me back, so..." she spread her hands and sighed, showing her helplessness.

Lin Chuxia kindly refrained from teasing her any further and changed the topic.

Song Xiaoyu pushed the door open, first freezing in surprise, then bursting into laughter, "I thought I entered the wrong place for a moment. Is this a night shift or a tea party?"

Her words made everyone glance at the snacks and tea on the table, all of them laughing sheepishly and, to hide their embarrassment, Lin Chuxia asked, "Teacher, did you find out the results?"

"Yes," Song Xiaoyu glanced at Zhou Mikang before saying, "Lin Chuxia, congratulations, the person chosen is you."

"Me?" Lin Chuxia pointed at her nose, "I’ve only been here such a short time, how could it be me?"

"Your performance has been outstanding recently, you’ve practically been mythologized. What’s so strange about being chosen?" Song Xiaoyu took a drink of water and continued, "Moreover, it was an expert who specifically named you to be an assistant."
