Chapter 48: Bed Allocation
“Lu Yu, I noticed you’ve always had a liking for Brother Cheng Lin, so tonight I’ve specifically arranged for you two to share a room.”
Both people suddenly named were somewhat surprised. However, since they had a decent relationship, they accepted the arrangement without much resistance.
Only Fu Li adjusted his glasses, and a sharp light flashed across his narrow eyes.
Jiang Mi raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at Bai Ruoruo with interest.
Bai Ruoruo smiled harmlessly at Jiang Mi. “Mimi, I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with my room allocations.”
Seeing Bai Ruoruo so happily smiling, Jiang Mi probably already knew the result.
She was quite surprised, as Bai Ruoruo had always been wary of the original host, fearing that the original host would be alone with Shen Mingxuan.
So why was she now trying to pair them up?
However, Jiang Mi had always had a cold attitude towards scumbags and white lotus flowers, so she spoke directly.
“What you think is satisfying might actually be disgusting to me.”
This single sentence cut off Bai Ruoruo’s words.
Her smile froze, and her eyes darkened as she looked at Jiang Mi, but she quickly put on a pitiful expression and said, “Mimi, I know the question I asked at dinner upset you. I apologize. Please don’t be mad.”
Jiang Mi: “……..” Not again!
Bai Ruoruo, fearing Jiang Mi might say something harsh, quickly added, “I know there were some misunderstandings between you and Mingxuan. As your good friend, I really hope you two can make up, so I’ve created this opportunity for you tonight.”
Jiang Mi tugged at the corner of her lips, her eyebrows cold. “Thank you.”
Gu Chuan immediately held Jiang Mi’s small hand tightly. His rough, warm hand wrapped around her soft one, causing a slight tingling sensation.
Jiang Mi lightly scratched the palm of his hand and winked subtly.
Gu Chuan’s displeasure dissipated immediately, and he tightened his grip on Jiang Mi’s hand.
Hearing Bai Ruoruo’s words, Shen Mingxuan’s eyes brightened. He also felt there were many misunderstandings between him and Jiang Mi.
He glanced over and saw Jiang Mi and Gu Chuan talking intimately. Shen Mingxuan’s face darkened. As long as he cleared things up with Jiang Mi, what did Gu Chuan have to do with it?
Bai Ruoruo also saw Gu Chuan and Jiang Mi talking closely, and a deep jealousy flashed in her eyes. She then put on a radiant smile and said to Gu Chuan, “Brother Chuan, you’ve helped me so many times before, and I haven’t had the chance to thank you properly. So, I’d like to take this time to chat with you more and express my gratitude.”
In an instant, her delicate fingers seemed like thorns piercing Gu Chuan’s palm.
Gu Chuan’s lips curled up slightly as he held her restless hand in his, giving it a squeeze and a gentle pat.
Jiang Mi let out a soft hum but calmed down to listen to what Gu Chuan had to say.
After soothing his girlfriend, Gu Chuan finally had time to speak slowly, “There’s no need. I helped you only because you were once a friend of Mimi.”
[Oh my, that statement has too many key elements. “Only” and “once” are the main points here. Let’s break it down.]
[The word “only” clearly delineates the relationship with Bai Ruoruo, implying a clear boundary.]
[“Once” is more straightforward, indicating that the friendship with Jiang Mi is a thing of the past.]
[Brother Chuan is powerful and direct; that’s how you deal with a white lotus.]
Bai Ruoruo’s smile stiffened, and she inwardly cursed Gu Chuan.
Jiang Mi, however, felt quite pleased, a hint of joy appearing in her eyes.
The more Jiang Mi smiled, the more Bai Ruoruo felt resentment and frustration.
Final room allocations:
[My goodness, I expected Bai Ruoruo to cause trouble, but I didn’t think she’d be so adept at it!]
[She actually had the audacity to say that the room assignments would satisfy everyone. In the end, it looks like only she’s satisfied!]
[Bai Ruoruo is really something. Despite clearly seeing that Gu Chuan is indifferent to her, why is she so eager to court him?]
[Some people are just like that—what they can’t have is always the best. They want to snatch their best friend’s boyfriend!]
[Tonight seems like it’s going to be a big event. I’m so excited all of a sudden!]
[With Bai Ruoruo’s room allocations, can tonight end peacefully???]
[I can see the meaning behind Bai Ruoruo’s room assignments. She mainly wants to separate Jiang Mi and Gu Chuan, and further disgust Jiang Mi.]
[But isn’t it possible that Bai Ruoruo’s actions will give Jiang Mi and Shen Mingxuan a chance to rekindle their old feelings?]
[The person upstairs is right. Jiang Mi doesn’t just dislike Shen Mingxuan; she despises him. Sharing a room is supposed to resolve misunderstandings, but it’s actually deepening their conflict!]
[Indeed, Jiang Mi would never give Shen Mingxuan a good face. Their relationship will only worsen, and maybe tomorrow, Bai Ruoruo will comfort Shen Mingxuan while stirring the pot.]
[The person upstairs seems to have hit the nail on the head. Bai Ruoruo’s scheming is truly deep.]
[I’m more worried about Jiang Mi and Gu Chuan, the poor couple. They’re being forced apart tonight and placed with the people they dislike most!]
