Quick Transmigration: Hehe, the gluttonous girl is here!
Chapter 98 The Gentle Male Supporting Character Fights and Snatches Away 5
After hearing these words, Jiang Li's fingers tightened silently as she gripped the jewelry box.
Honey, he's probably quite busy with this.
I'm so busy I can't even find time to send you a message, but I do find time to buy diamonds.
A mocking, mechanical voice echoed in the system's head as it mentally ranted.
Jiang Li placed the jewelry box on the glass coffee table in front of her.
Looking at that face that bore a striking resemblance to Shen Yan, Jiang Li felt a tightness in her chest.
But she did not react on the spot.
In situations like this, it's not a good look to lose or be upset.
Pei Shiheng sat quietly next to an empty seat.
From the moment Lu Chengye entered the room, his gaze never truly left Jiang Li.
She didn't seem happy when she received the gift.
When she heard "by the way," the corner of her eye drooped slightly.
Pei Shiheng tightened his grip on the cup.
He knew he should stop.
Lu Chengye is his childhood friend, and Jiang Li is still Lu Chengye's girlfriend.
But he saw her sitting there, so quietly.
The restraint in my chest was gradually worn away.
A dark tide surged deep within the man's gaze, carrying an extremely aggressive intensity.
The silk shirt accentuated his broad, well-defined shoulders and back without reservation.
Long legs casually crossed, encased in haute couture trousers.
Even when simply sitting quietly, she exudes an air of noble restraint and asceticism.
The scent of cedarwood wafted from his body.
I keenly detected that crisp, refreshing scent; the tip of my nose was enveloped in the aroma of cedarwood.
Jiang Li's previously depressed mood was somewhat relieved.
This man really knows how to pick his position; he's constantly using pheromones to create a buzz.
Her waistline is absolutely stunning, and even the buttons are fastened with such care.
The system tried to distract her, its voice brimming with barely suppressed excitement.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Lin Xiaoman hurriedly took a step forward and stood beside Lu Chengye.
"Don't misunderstand, there is absolutely no inappropriate relationship between me and Senior Lu."
She straightened her slender back and met the scrutinizing gazes around her with a defiant look.
"I have absolutely no interest in the extravagant lifestyle of you rich people, nor do I want to get involved."
"I accidentally hit his car while delivering food last time, and I owed him money for repairs. Today, he helped me pay for my medical expenses."
The girl's voice was strained, and she bit her pale lips hard, as if she was trying her best to maintain her dignity.
"I will find a way to pay him back the money, one by one, in the future."
Hearing such eager words to distance himself from the situation, Lu Chengye felt inexplicably irritated.
His face turned cold, and his tone became very sharp.
"I already told you you don't need to pay me back."
"I don't need the money for repairs and medical expenses, so stop talking about paying me back all the time."
Lin Xiaoman looked up at him, her eyes a little red, but her tone was very firm.
"It's your business if you don't need money, but I can't take your money for nothing."
"I have hands and feet, and I can earn my own money."
At this point, she seemed to realize that Lu Chengye's girlfriend was also present.
His gaze inadvertently drifted towards Jiang Li.
"I won't be like those women who only rely on men."
Inside the private room, the people who had been watching the commotion all fell silent.
On its own, these words do indeed demonstrate considerable backbone.
However, given that Jiang Li had just accepted Lu Chengye's diamond bracelet, it's hard not to have some doubts.
We're all in the same circle; everyone can see the hidden meaning in those words—it's obvious they're targeting Jiang Li.
His official girlfriend had just accepted an expensive bracelet from Lu Chengye.
Lin Xiaoman, on the other hand, proclaims that she doesn't rely on men, making the contrast all the more striking.
What a resilient little white flower! It's clearly a reminder of you, my darling.
[It means that although she's poor, she has integrity, and you accepting gifts from your boyfriend is just relying on him.]
These steps are quite high; you have to step on them to get up.
Jiang Li's long eyelashes trembled slightly, but her expression remained unchanged.
After she started dating Lu Chengye, she did receive gifts such as clothes and bags.
Her boyfriend comes from a wealthy family and is willing to spend money on her to provide emotional support, which she accepts openly and without reservation.
I never imagined that I would become a moral springboard for others to flaunt their superiority.
[Tongzi, her rhetoric is very skillful.]
[The original female lead, she turns hardship into moral high ground; her skills are maxed out.]
Just as Jiang Li was about to speak, she suddenly heard a soft sound of the bottom of a glass hitting the coffee table beside her.
The voice wasn't loud, but it made several people stop talking.
Leaning back on the leather sofa, the mixed-race man rubbed his fingertips against the glass.
Even in this provocative atmosphere, he still maintained his gentle and elegant good-natured appearance.
But when he raised his eyes, a chilling sense of oppression was hidden beneath his extremely restrained appearance.
He looked calmly at the two people standing together, his thin lips slightly parted.
"Lu Chengye".
The man's voice was not aggressive at all, but it lowered the temperature in the private room.
"Are you just going to let others bully your girlfriend like this?"
The private room was extremely quiet.
Several gazes darted back and forth between Pei Shiheng and Lu Chengye.
Lin Xiaoman's face paled; she instinctively wanted to retort.
But when she looked up at Pei Shiheng, she stopped speaking.
The man sat under the lamp, his white shirt buttoned up neatly.
With straight shoulders and back, clear and bright eyes, he was so clean that he was almost noble.
Lin Xiaoman previously thought that Lu Chengye was already dazzling enough.
Flamboyant, undisciplined, and arrogant.
But Pei Shiheng is completely different from him.
He was gentle and polite.
They seem to have been raised with the best rules since childhood, and they don't lose their composure even when being scolded.
Lin Xiaoman stared at his face for a few more seconds before belatedly snapping back to reality.
"I didn't bully her."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but glance at Pei Shiheng again.
It was as if she was afraid he would really think of her as that kind of mean person.
She straightened her thin back as much as she could and took a quick step forward.
"My family is not well-off, so I am used to relying on myself."
I absolutely did not mean to look down on anyone; I was just stating my own opinion. Was I wrong?
If someone else heard this, they would probably think she was indeed pitiful.
But at this moment, Lu Chengye stood in front of her.
Behind her was this group of young masters and ladies from Beijing's elite circles. Her pitiful state became a thorn in Jiang Li's side.
[Honey, she's here, and she's brought with her the classic disclaimer.]
I didn't mean anything by it; this is just a translation. If you find it amusing, don't blame me.
Standing beside him, Lu Chengye looked at Lin Xiaoman's reddened eyes and felt a sudden surge of irritation.
He raised his hand to block Lin Xiaoman and looked at Pei Shiheng.
"Shi Heng, what you said went a bit too far."
His tone, characteristically arrogant for a boy, carried an undisguised protectiveness.
"Xiaoman is straightforward and doesn't have many hidden agendas."
She meant no harm; don't use your own logic to judge her.
Upon hearing these words, the system emitted a series of cold laughs in Jiang Li's mind.
That's how they protected her.
Does he think he's some kind of romantic lead, staging a story of protection that transcends class boundaries?
