Snatching Opportunity

"Su Xuan, it seemed you had misunderstood something. We had never made any promises to each other. I had only ever regarded you as a friend," Jiang Qingkui declared.

Upon hearing this, Su Xuan immediately wanted to refute her, only to strangely discover that he had nothing to say in rebuttal.

The two of them had always understood things tacitly and had never once spoken of liking each other, much less confirmed that they were together.

If one insisted on calling them a couple, that could be said to be true. If one said they were not a couple, that could also be true.

It all depended on how the two of them viewed their relationship.

Jiang Qingkui's claim that they were friends was perfectly defensible.

Yet when those words fell into Su Xuan's ears, he was utterly dumbfounded.

Ding! The host has caused protagonist Su Xuan's mentality to suffer damage. Villain Points +10,000. Su Xuan's Protagonist Halo -500. Host's Villain Halo +500!

"Qingkui, you had to be joking, right?" Su Xuan was unwilling to believe that this was real.

"Su Xuan, I heard that you were in trouble and specifically brought people to help you. That was only because we were friends. But if you slander my chastity, perhaps we will not even be friends anymore," Jiang Qingkui said coldly.

Hearing this, Su Xuan finally gave up hope. However, his hatred for Wang Haoran deepened by another layer.

Su Xuan was extremely unwilling to face this fact, but he still knew what mattered more.

"Qingkui, you were right. We are friends," Su Xuan said in a choked voice.

Only then did Jiang Qingkui's expression soften slightly. She secretly glanced at Wang Haoran.

Wang Haoran's expression was normal. He no longer wore the pained, heartbroken look from before.
