Chapter 400: Hit the Nail on the Head
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
With Bai Lin’s words, the others at the table immediately acted as if nothing had happened and began to eat and chat. They did not say anything, but they liked Bai Lin’s direct approach of hitting the nail on the head toward the hypocritical b*tch.
“Come, Xiao Jing, you’re quite skinny. Eat more.” Meng Lan enthusiastically picked up a piece of meat for Ruan Jing, then turned around and picked up some food for Jian Xi. “You too. Why are all university professors so thin?”
Jian Xi was stunned. Although Meng Lan used the common chopsticks and did not give him food alone, he still felt very shy. He could not help but look at Meng Lan and met her amber eyes.
“Hurry up and eat. Why are you dazed?” Meng Lan said with a smile.
Jian Xi hurriedly picked up his bowl and ate two mouthfuls of rice. However, he choked because he was too nervous. It was Meng Lan who poured him some water and patted his back to help him breathe in the end.
On the other side of the table, Sheng Chuan elbowed Ruan Jing and deliberately whispered to her in a voice that everyone could hear. “Look, there’s even a TV drama to watch during dinner. One moment, it’s tearing apart a hypocritical b*tch with bare hands, and the next moment, it’s an urban romantic comedy.”
He was undoubtedly referring to the scene of Bai Lin and Chu Yi regarding tearing a hypocritical b*tch apart while the urban romantic comedy was obviously about the interaction between Meng Lan and Jian Xi.
Ruan Jing felt that Sheng Chuan’s description was very appropriate and laughed as well. However, she quickly realized that Chu Yi and He Ao were still here. If they publicly isolated the two of them, it would be inevitable that they would be criticized again.
“Just eat your food. I’ve made so many dishes, yet they can’t even shut your mouth.” Ruan Jing pouted, and Sheng Chuan obediently lowered his head and started eating.
He even dramatically said “it’s delicious’! loudly with every bite. Ruan Jing was both angry and embarrassed by his move, and she gently punched his arm.
At the side, Chu Yi had stopped crying and talking. She was so angry that she was about to die.
She felt like she had been alienated by everyone led by Bai Lin. It was only the first day and Bai Lin was already so good at winning people’s hearts. It seemed like she had underestimated Bai Lin. She had thought that Bai Lin was just a lucky girl who had become famous, but now it seemed like she was not that simple.
To be able to get to where she was today in the entertainment industry, she had to give up everything. But what did Bai Lin give up? Why should she be humiliated by Bai Lin?
“You’re too much!” Chu Yi cried out in grievance. She looked as if she had really suffered a lot. “Everyone, please be reasonable. Why must Bai Lin treat me like this? What have I done to offend you?!”
[I’ve only felt comfortable for a minute, and a dog came out barking again. It’s a dog named Chu Yi! I really don’t like her.]
[Reason? The reason is that you’re a fake b*tch who wants to hook up with men whenever you see them, and that you’re two-faced and lie all the time.]
[Those who said that Chu Yi was throwing her weight around, look at this. She’s already being bullied here. If she’s throwing her weight around, she’ll be the one bullying others!]
[Forget it, it’s obvious that Chu Yi’s just acting. She only knows how to smile people like Best Actor Yan and He Ao. She won’t even look at poor fans like you.]
[Isn’t Chu Yi’s beauty the cause of Bai Lin’s jealousy? You’re just jealous too! One look at Bai Lin’s face and it’s obvious that she’s had plastic surgery. She can’t even compare to Chu Yi!]
[Chu Yi is indeed a natural, born to be shameless, born to despise the poor and love the rich, born to be fake and lie.]
Sheng Chuan put down his chopsticks and looked at Chu Yi coldly. Since Chu Yi had spread the flames of anger to them, he did not intend to sit and watch the show anymore.
“We haven’t even said anything yet, and you’re already crying like you’re going to flood the house. Did one of us hit you or scold you? Did we gang up to bully you?”
Even though this was Chu Yi’s intention, she could not continue acting after Sheng Chuan said it so directly. She glared at Sheng Chuan and looked at the others at the table with a pitiful expression.
Meng Lan and Ruan Jing were talking about culinary techniques, and she would chat with Jian Xi from time to time. Yan Ruo, on the other hand, did not say a word from the beginning to end. He was either helping Bai Lin pick out the fish bones or taking food for her.
No one paid attention to Chu Yi.
Even He Ao, who had come with her, was nowhere to be seen. She did not know when he had left.
Chu Yi gritted her teeth and took a deep breath to adjust her expression. She slowly walked to Bai Lin’s side and sat down on the empty seat beside her. “Xiao Lin, can I eat with you? I really want to have a good chat with you.”
“Sure, you can pay for it.”
Bai Lin chuckled..
