My ex-girlfriend's best friends are getting restless right after the breakup.

Chapter 118 What a great Chinese best friend!

Zhao Lulu: "Weiwei, have you ever thought that breaking up with Chen Bo might be the best choice for you?"

Bei Weiwei: "????"

Bei Weiwei: "Zhao Lulu, what did you say???"

Zhou Lingyan quickly tried to smooth things over: "Weiwei, don't get agitated, let Lulu finish what she has to say!"

Bei Weiwei: "What did she say? She told me to break up with Chen Bo! He's my boyfriend! I waited for him for three years!"

I bought him a villa! I gave him underwear! And now you want me to break up with him?!

Zhao Lulu: "It wasn't a real breakup! It was a strategic breakup!"

Bei Weiwei: "??? What strategic breakup?"

Zhao Lulu: "Think about it, why doesn't Chen Bo feel any burden towards Yue Qing? Because Yue Qing is his ex-girlfriend! He has no responsibility or burden towards his ex-girlfriend, so he can do whatever he wants with her!"

Bei Weiwei: "—And then?"

Zhao Lulu: "And then? If you also become his ex-girlfriend, wouldn't he feel less burdened towards you?"

Bei Weiwei was stunned.

Zhou Lingyan quickly added, "That's right, Weiwei. Think about it, you're his official girlfriend now, and Chen Bo respects you so much that he's unwilling to cross that final line. But if you break up and become his ex-girlfriend, he won't have any burden anymore, right? Then he can treat you however he wants!"

Bei Weiwei: "But—if we break up, we're no longer boyfriend and girlfriend—"

Zhao Lulu: "So what? Yueqing broke up with Chen Bo, and now she's back and leaning against the wall, isn't she? Look at the videos she posted, do they look like they've broken up?"

Bei Weiwei remained silent.

Zhao Lulu continued, "Weiwei, think about it, what do you want most right now? Is it to have Chen Bo treat you like Yueqing did? Do you want to lean against a wall?"

Bei Weiwei blushed.

she thinks.

She wanted it so badly.

She watched that video too.

After watching it, she cried for a full half hour.

Why is Xu Yueqing allowed to do this?

Why can't she?

Zhou Lingyan: "Weiwei, Lulu is right. You're Chen Bo's official girlfriend now, and he cherishes you so much that he can't bear to part with you. But if you break up with him, he'll have no burden left! Then, won't he—"

Bevy's heart began to race.

Zhao Lulu: "Besides, think about it, the breakup isn't a real breakup! It's just a strategy! Break up first, and then get back together once he's no longer indebted to you! Then, he'll just—"

Bevy's breathing began to become erratic.

Zhou Lingyan: "Yeah, Weiwei, this is called a strategic retreat! Break up first, then get back together. By then, Chen Bo won't feel guilty towards you anymore, and you can lean on the wall however you want!"

Bei Weiwei stared at the screen, her mind a jumbled mess.

separate?

Did she break up with Chen Bo?

She waited for him for three years.

She bought him a villa.

She gave him underwear.

She thinks about him every day.

Should I ask her to break up with me now?

But----

What Zhao Lulu and Zhou Lingyan said seemed to make some sense.

Chen Bo truly felt no burden towards Xu Yueqing.

Do whatever you want.

In and out.

Without any scruples.

And what about her?

She didn't even take the last step.

Bei Weiwei bit her lip.

Bei Weiwei: "But—what if he doesn't want to get back together with me after we break up?"

Zhao Lulu: "How could that be? He loves you so much, he's so good to you, how could he not get back together with you?"

Zhou Lingyan: "Exactly! You're definitely the most important person in his heart. Breaking up is just a strategy, not a real breakup!"

Bei Weiwei: "Then—what if he goes to Yueqing?"

Zhao Lulu and Zhou Lingyan both fell silent.

That's a good question.

What if Chen Bo goes to find Xu Yueqing?

That bitch Xu Yueqing is filming outside every day now. Once she comes back, won't Chen Bo be running to her villa every day?

Zhao Lulu thought for a moment and then started typing.

Zhao Lulu: "Then we need to hurry! Before Yueqing comes back, let's make sure Chen Bo doesn't feel pressured towards you! By the time he gets used to being free of pressure, it'll be too late for Yueqing to come back!"

Zhou Lingyan: "Yes, yes, yes, strike first and you'll be in trouble!"

Bei Weiwei stared at the screen, her heart pounding.

Pre-emptive?

Those who act last will suffer the consequences?

It seems... it seems to make some sense?

Zhao Lulu continued, "Weiwei, think about it, who is your biggest competitor right now? It's Yueqing!"

Why was she so smug? Because she relieved Chen Bo of his burdens! If you could relieve Chen Bo of his burdens too, would you still be afraid of her?

Zhou Lingyan: "Exactly! By then, you'll both be ex-girlfriends, so it'll be a fair competition. Who knows who'll win or lose!"

Bevy's eyes began to light up.

Correct.

If she also becomes an ex-girlfriend, then she's no worse than Xu Yueqing.

She has everything that Xu Yueqing has.

Xu Yueqing can lean against the wall, and so can she.

Xu Yueqing can let Chen Bo come and go as she pleases, and so can she.

These two best friends are truly the best of friends in China!

I misunderstood them before.

Bevy's face grew increasingly red.

Bei Weiwei: "Then—what should I do?"

Zhao Lulu: "First of all, you need to break up with Chen Bo."

Bei Weiwei: "Break up? What am I supposed to say? That I don't want you anymore?"

Zhou Lingyan: "Of course you can't say that! You need to say it more emotionally, so he feels you're doing it for his own good!"

Bei Weiwei: "For his own good?"

Zhao Lulu: "Yes! Just say that you feel you're not good enough for him, and you don't want to slow down his sword-drawing speed, so you're voluntarily withdrawing!"

Zhou Lingyan: "Yes, yes, yes! That way, he won't hate you; he'll even think you're sensible!"

Bei Weiwei: "But—I don't want him to feel that I'm not good enough for him—"

Zhao Lulu: "That's just an excuse, not the truth. Once he's free of that burden, you two can get back together. Then he'll realize how great you are, won't he?"

Bei Weiwei hesitated.

Zhao Lulu continued, "Weiwei, think about it. How long do you expect to wait? Until the villa is renovated? That will take another month or two! In a month or two, Yueqing will have come back countless times, and your chances will be even slimmer."

Bei Weiwei's heart tightened.

Correct.

Yueqing should be back soon.

Once she comes back, she'll be hanging around Chen Bo every day. What chance will she have then?

Bei Weiwei gritted her teeth.

Bei Weiwei: "Okay! I'll give it a try!"

Zhao Lulu and Zhou Lingyan both breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Lulu: "But Weiwei, you have to remember, after the breakup, you can't immediately try to get back together with him! You have to wait a while, until he's used to being free of burdens, before you reappear!"

Zhou Lingyan: "Right, right, right! Playing hard to get! Do you understand?"

Bei Weiwei: "How long will it take?"

Zhao Lulu thought for a moment: "At least a week, right?"

Zhou Lingyan: "A week is too short, a month!"

Zhao Lulu: "A month is too long, half a month is enough!"

Bei Weiwei: "—Can you all agree on this?"

Zhao Lulu and Zhou Lingyan both fell silent.

Zhao Lulu: "Here's what you do: break up with him first, then see how things go. When he contacts you first, be a little reserved and don't agree immediately. Wait until he gets anxious, then—"

Bei Weiwei blushed.

Should we make him take the initiative to contact her?

Make him anxious?

It seems...it seems pretty exciting?
