Female Novel
Chapter 980
Renee felt nervous when she turned around and spotted Leia. “Lei, when did you get here? Why didn’tyou say something?”
“I’ve been here for a while. It looked like you both were having a good chat so I didn’t have the heart tointerrupt.” Leia slowly approached them, her tone indifferent and cold.
‘Darn!’ Renee knitted her eyebrows. She did not expect that Leia would overhear her conversation withXavier.
As someone with high self-esteem, Lei must be very hurt!
“Don’t listen to his crap, Lei. He is just speaking casually. He is not such a person, he…” Reneeanxiously tried to make excuses for Xavier, but then realized that the man’s words were simplyunforgivable.
“You don’t have to defend me, darling, I am that kind of person. It’s good for Lei to know this early sothat she will give up on her unrealistic fantasies.” Xavier put his hands in his pockets. The corners ofhis lips curved upwards and his gaze was carefree and charming.
Leia looked at the man coldly and said disdainfully, “I admit that you are skillful in flirtation, Xavier, and Idid have some moments of confusion during the days we were on Sun Island, but the confusion I hadis still far from admiration. I would never love a man like you.”
Xavier shrugged carelessly. “I know. I am not an elite or brainy man. I am just a jerk who lives casually.I won’t ask for your love.”
“I don’t like you because I despise you. You are a coward deep down. You don’t even have the guts toface your heart. You are the most cowardly man I have ever met, and you’re even more cowardly thanmy ex!”
“Coward?” Xavier rubbed his chin, as if she had poked his sore spot, and laughed. “How am I acoward? What is wrong with not liking conflict?”
“Aren’t you a coward since you don’t even have the courage to face your own feelings?” Leia snarled,”Iwas wondering why I felt you were sad though you looked happy. It’s the sorrow of unrequited love,isn’t it? I understand now…”
“Um, what do you understand?” He was confused for real this time. Did she really know his truefeelings?
“You like Ren, your best friend’s girl.” Leia had figured out his true feelings this time and pitied him. “It’sa shame that you only dare to love her secretly and do not dare to pursue her. This is why you use yourplayfulness to hide your true feelings, then stay by Ren’s side as her best friend. You even deliberatelyflirt with me to use me as a cover-up because you are afraid that your true feelings will be exposed!”
“Um… is that what you think?” His handsome face stiffened immediately. ‘Why is this girl not reactingthe way a girl normally would?’
Was she some kind of mind reader who could see into his heart?
Leia, on the other hand, continued to criticize him. “You’re such a coward! You’re old enough to stophaving a crush on someone. Ren is already single now anyway, so act like a man and pursue heropenly!”
“Um, you are right. Darling is single now, so maybe I really can try to woo her. But the thing is, I amonly good at talking, so I don’t know where to start!” He frowned slightly, then sincerely asked Leia foradvice. “You are her best friend, so you should know her best. Why don’t you teach me how to do it?”
“Hmph, maybe there’s hope for you yet, since you asked the right person.” Leia looked angry at first,but when she heard that he wanted to pursue her best friend, she suddenly got fired up. “It’s easy.First, you must be handsome…”
Renee stood beside them, totally dumbfounded. ‘Are these two alright? Why do I have to deal withthis? Why are they openly discussing how to pursue me?’novelbin
What’s more, they were very excited about it. It was like they were in their own world, and no one elsewas around.
