120 Should I Yield Or Not? (1/2)

Song Xia's room:

Song Xia didn't plan on sleeping as she had already slept for hours in the afternoon. Moreover, now with the matter with Ellen bothering her, she couldn't fall asleep at all.

Just as she was idling around, she suddenly received a call from Xu Zhen. ”Hello?”

”Song'song!!!” Xu Zhen's voice was very enthusiastic today.

”..Yes?” Song Xia lied on the fluffy bed as she looked at the white ceiling and replied in a daze.

”Song'song!!! Let me tell you, an amazing thing happened today!!!”

Maybe affected by her cheery tone, Song Xia's lips curved upwards. ”What made my family's Zhenzhen so happy today?”

Zhenzhen proudly said: ”Song'song!! I won the bid!!”

”Oh” Song Xia blinked, unruffled by the piece of news. Noticing her indifference, Xu Zhen sighed dejectedly.

”Aiya, why are you so unexcited?! Shouldn't you be happy and praise your baby for winning the bid?”

”Sigh, I already expected it, alright? After all, my baby is so professional and talented!”

Xu Zhen blushed as she fell silent for a long while before speaking: ”..You're teasing me again!”

Song Xia felt that the gap between her answer was quite suspicious. She smiled broadly, ”So you called me to tell me this?”

”Mmh.”

”Sigh, go to bed early. Since you won the bid, your workload has been doubled now, so take a good rest and don't overwork yourself.” Song Xia nagged her.

Xu Zhen grinned, ”Okay, okay. I won't overwork.” She then changed the topic, ”Oh right, when are you coming back?”

Song Xia's eyes dimmed. When she heard her words, she instantly recalled what Ellen said. Pursing her lips, she spoke uncertainly, ”Maybe two months later?”

Xu Zhen noticed something wrong with her tone and frowned. ”..Your mood is quite off. Are you upset, Xiao Xia?”

Song Xia froze.

'Except for Ellen who knows my mind like the back of his hand, Zhenzhen can easily decipher my mood as well!'

She laughed and didn't deny, ”Yeah. I had a conflict with a friend today.”

Xu Zhen blinked. ”A friend?” Her smile turned ambiguous. ”A guy or a girl?”

Song Xia replied after a while, ”..A guy.”

In the blink of an eye, Xu Zhen's smile became wider and meaningful.

”Xiao Xia.. This guy friend you're talking about.. Who's he? Is he just a friend or..”

”Zhenzhen!” Song Xia shouted but the blush in her face was very obvious.

Even though they hadn't been friends for too long, Xu Zhen knew her well enough to know that this guy friend wasn't just a ”friend”..

”Whatever. You shouldn't fight for too long. Otherwise your relationship will worsen. It's better to talk things out.” Xu Zhen spoke like a relationship expert.

”Anyways, thank you again. If you didn't help with the plan, we wouldn't have won the bid against the Long Company! Speaking of which..”

Smiling softly, she ended the call and turned off the lights. The room turned dark but still she couldn't seem to be sleepy at all.

Song Xia turned over to the left and closed her eyes. Then she turned over to her right. But a second later, she opened her eyes again.

Frowning, she sat up. Her mood was gloomy. She kept thinking of Ellen and Xu Zhen's words kept ringing in her mind.

'Zhenzhen's right. I shouldn't fight if it makes me feel so upset. I'll probably have to yield..'

Then she puffed up her cheeks and mumbled angrily, ”No, who's upset?! I don't care if he doesn't talk to me! It's not like I'm in the wrong..”
