59 Everything that shines is not always gold. (2/2)
She can see that Shen Ya was so good to the original that she has treated her more important than her own family and even sister. She trusted her not Shen Rui. This was clear enough that the importance of Zhen Xiu in her heart was something unshakeable.
The evil princess feels bad for this person who has a heart of gold. How can someone give this much importance to a stranger who was not even blood related and never was true to them?
The heart was really strange organ. No, humans are really strange.
”Then why are you giving him a chance again to ruin you?” Shen Ya asked angrily. She was tired of hearing her say this every time but still doing something opposite.
”Why were you helping Jiang Wui if you don't want to impress Lu Jian?”
Zhen Xiu knew why Shen Ya was this troubled now. So, this was because she thought that she was using her to gain some points in front of Jiang Wui who in turn will help her in getting Lu Jian.
Heavens! These people are too strange. Well, Shen Ya was not exactly wrong in her thinking because if this were previous Zhen Xiu then she would definitely use this chance to impress Lu Jian.
”It's not like that. Please, trust me. I was truly helping him because I feel that you too like him not because I want to get Lu Jian through that joker. Oh! Please, I don't need anyone to get men for me. I am more than capable.” Zhen Xiu arrogantly talked.
Shen Ya was giving her a look of disbelief.
”I mean I am not that easily swayed by looks.” Zhen Xiu crossed her fingers mentally for spouting lies like drinking water. ”I never will be attracted to Lu Jian just because he is pretty and will never try to eat him unless I have my brain screwed.”
”I am genuinely giving him a chance and Jiang Wui loves you so I thought why not patch you up with me?”
”Really,” Shen Ya frowned. ”You sure that he loves me and you are not interested in Lu Jian like before.”
”Absolutely,” Zhen Xiu immediately agreed. ”Would I lie to you?”
Shen Ya the loyal friend was again fooled by this evil princess. She shook her head.
”See; let's leave me and Lu Jian for a moment. I will deal with him on my own. We need to talk about that joker. Although I didn't say anything like Jiang Wui told you still you can give him a chance. Not everyone is like your bastard father.” Zhen Xiu tested the still water by using the name of Shen Ya's father.
Shen Ya froze after she heard 'father'. All the disturbing memories came again in flashes after remembering the ugly night.
”I know you hate all males because of him but think about Jiang Wui; he is not that bad. He knows how to respect girls. His playboy nature can be a decoy to hide his true feelings, yeah.” Zhen Xiu suggested.
