Before Jiang Che could even retort, he felt Su Qinghe's small hand, which had been gripping his arm, tighten a little.

He looked down at Su Qinghe's small face with some confusion.

It turned out that when I looked closely, I noticed that her eyes had become red and swollen, and her cheeks, which had previously had a light blush, had turned pale.

Jiang Che was a little confused. What was going on with Su Qinghe?

Why the sudden change of expression? You were perfectly fine in the mall just now.

His mind raced as he mentally reviewed what Bai Yuning had just said.

"Wasn't this the little sister you brought last time?"

"Changing women is like changing clothes?"

Jiang Che swallowed hard, a somewhat unbelievable answer slowly emerging in his mind.

Su Qinghe... is she jealous? Because of Lin Wanwan?

Realizing this, Jiang Che felt a little flustered.

No way? Su Qinghe wouldn't actually be interested in him, would she?

Although Jiang Che really didn't want this to be true, he wasn't stupid. From yesterday until now, Su Qinghe's behavior had clearly shown that she had an unusual fondness for him.

Even if this isn't liking someone, it's definitely not an ordinary feeling; at most, it's just a liking that hasn't fully matured yet.

Jiang Che scratched his head in a bit of a predicament. How should he get along with Su Qinghe from now on?

Pretending not to know?

To be honest, Jiang Che couldn't pretend he didn't know, unless he could put on an Oscar-worthy performance in front of Su Qinghe 24/7.

Even if he did have the acting skills, it would be tiring to act all day.

How can you get him to accept Su Qinghe's affections and be with her?

That's even more impossible. He just broke up with Lin Wanwan two days ago, and now he's involved with another girl? What would that make him? A beast?

How could a normal person be so heartbroken over someone one day and then suddenly fall in love with someone else the next?

Jiang Che knew he couldn't do such a thing.

But seeing Su Qinghe looking like she was about to break, he felt a tightness in his chest. He couldn't care less about any other random thoughts; all he felt was heartache.

He couldn't just stand by and watch her continue to be so sad.

Bai Yuning also sensed that the atmosphere was off. She put away her teasing smile and asked with some concern, "What's wrong? I was just joking. Why are you so scared, little sister?"

Jiang Che had no interest in paying attention to her. He held Su Qinghe's shoulders and made her turn to face him, forcing her to "look" in his direction.

"Su Qinghe".

Su Qinghe gave a muffled "hmm," her long eyelashes already glistening with tears that were about to fall.

Jiang Che looked at her pitiful appearance and sighed inwardly, deciding to make things clear.

"Listen to me, Lin Wanwan and I are completely over."

He spoke each word exceptionally clearly, as if afraid that Su Qinghe might not have heard him clearly.

Su Qinghe's body trembled slightly, but the fingers gripping his sleeve showed no sign of loosening their grip.

Jiang Che knew she wasn't so easily convinced, so he continued to explain, "Don't take what my sister just said to heart; she just likes to joke around."

"Lin Wanwan did come here before, but I didn't bring her. She wasn't feeling well and insisted on coming here for medical treatment. I just gave her a ride on my way."

After Jiang Che finished speaking, he felt that it wasn't enough for him to just talk, so he simply dragged Bai Yuning, who was standing next to him, into the conversation as well.

"Sister, can you testify? Is this what happened?"

Bai Yuning was watching the show with great interest, never expecting that the fire would spread to her.

She pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses, smiled, and nodded at Su Qinghe, "Yes, yes, that's exactly it."

"And besides," Bai Yuning deliberately drew out her words, looking Su Qinghe up and down with obvious affection in her eyes, "I don't like that girl at all. She's arrogant and domineering, and has no manners whatsoever."

"No one can compare to our Qinghe, who is so well-behaved and adorable. She's simply irresistible."

Bai Yuning's words were an absolute spur to the challenge.

Not only did she clear up the misunderstanding for Jiang Che, but she also took the opportunity to put Lin Wanwan down and praise Su Qinghe to the skies.

You know, girls really do understand girls.

In fact, Su Qinghe had already chosen to believe Jiang Che when she heard his explanation.

Moreover, she was extremely flattered and surprised that Jiang Che took the initiative to explain Lin Wanwan's situation to her.

Because Su Qinghe knew she was no one to Jiang Che, she had no reason to be jealous, and Jiang Che had no need to explain these things to her.

But he actually chose to explain... Does that mean that he is somewhat special in Jiang Che's heart?

Su Qinghe even went so far as to fantasize that Jiang Che might also like her? Even if only a little?

Hearing Bai Yuning say this again, her last bit of doubt and unease completely vanished.

Jiang Che doesn't like Lin Wanwan now, and neither do his family.

But his family likes her.

The chances of her becoming Jiang Che's girlfriend have increased a bit more.

The girl slowly loosened her tightly clenched lower lip and softly hummed in agreement, her voice thick with nasal tone, sounding both aggrieved and pitiful.

At this moment, Comrade Jiang Che breathed a sigh of relief once again after seeing that Su Qinghe's emotions had calmed down.

In just one day, he successfully wooed a girl three times without using any money.

He felt incredibly proud of himself. Sure enough, for an outstanding young man like him, learning how to make girls happy was a piece of cake.

Jiang Che cleared his throat, steer the conversation back on track, and said to Bai Yuning, who was still gossiping, "Alright, alright, stop gossiping and get down to business. Go get her eyes checked."

Bai Yuning then suppressed her smile and resumed her professional doctor demeanor.

"Okay, I'll find you an ophthalmologist."

Bai Yuning is a dentist. Jiang Che brought Su Qinghe straight to her because he wanted to use connections.

The hospital is usually packed with people, and today is Saturday. Jiang Che doesn't even need to think about it; the ophthalmology clinic will be absolutely overflowing with people, with a wait time of eight hundred years.

Then he remembered that his dear cousin was very influential at this hospital, so he happily brought people over to pull strings.

Bai Yuning went to the window to make a phone call to call for help. While she was at it, Jiang Che helped Su Qinghe to a chair and let her sit down and rest for a while.

Su Qinghe had only sat down for a couple of seconds when she suddenly stood up for some reason.

Jiang Che was a little confused, but the next second he saw the girl in front of him gently biting her lip, looking very embarrassed and helpless.

"Jiang Che, I...I think I've gotten my period..."
