Chapter 243: A Woman's Charm Brings About Disaster (1)
"Would it kill you to tell us the truth? What's the point of trying to hide it?" Ah Mei suddenly asked bluntly.
At first, Shen Jingbin only thought of Ah Mei as one of those commonly seen gossipy girls, but now it was clear that Ah Mei was trying to feel her out.
Shen Jingbin was the type of person who responded in kind. If the other party were a pleasant and agreeable girl, then she too would be as warm as the morning sun. However, if the other party spoke in an unpleasant manner, expecting any politeness on her part would be a bit of a stretch.
Shen Jingbin's face turned cold as she rebuffed Ah Mei, "What does my relations.h.i.+p with him have to do with you?"
"I-I was just curious. That's all."
"Just because you're curious doesn't mean that I have to give you an answer."
"…" Ah Mei's face screwed up in displeasure, and she continued to wordlessly glare at Shen Jingbin.
"Hey, what're you doing?" Jiang Weiwei asked as she walked over with a small platter of fruits in her hand and proceeded to seat herself beside Shen Jingbin. She then turned to Ah Mei and said haughtily, "Who're you again? I seem to have forgotten you."
Ah Mei's chest heaved for several moments before she replied. "I'm Ah Mei."
Jiang Weiwei wore a look of disdain on her face. "Ah Mei? Never heard of you. Whose girlfriend are you?"
Ah Mei silently averted her gaze.
"Hey hey hey, Jiang Weiwei, why are you holed up here? … Hm? Pretty lady, where'd Chengning run off to? Why isn't he with you?" A young man wearing a white s.h.i.+rt walked over. He swept a glance at Ah Mei before he turned his attention to Jiang Weiwei and Shen Jingbin.
Jiang Weiwei gestured at Ah Mei with her chin and asked, "Is she your girlfriend?"
The man shot another glance at Ah Mei. "She looks really familiar, let me think about it… I think she's Ah Hao's girlfriend. Hey girl, you're with Ah Hao, right?"
Ah Mei nodded.
Jiang Weiwei tsked and curled her lips.
Ah Mei really couldn't stand being sneered at by Jiang Weiwei, but at the same time, she didn't dare rebuke her either. Jiang Weiwei was an infamous shrew amongst this circle of friends, but she still got along pretty well with the guys.
