Reborn in the 90s, tearing apart scumbag men for the sake of women.

Noticing Yu Shaofen's mood, Song Lingge asked, "What's wrong?"

Yu Shaofen looked at her, a little angry, and said, "Did you deliberately ask me out today to act as a go-between for someone else? Are you still my good friend or not?"

Song Lingge put her arm around Yu Shaofen: "You're exaggerating. Of course I'm your good friend. Speaking of which, I want to ask you, are we still good friends? You don't tell us anything, and I have to find out from other people."

Yu Shaofen lowered her head. It wasn't that she felt guilty; she just found it difficult to speak to her friend.

"Forget it, I'll settle the score with you later. Let's go inside, don't stand here. You've been working all day, you must be hungry, right?"

Yu Shaofen was half-heartedly pulled into the restaurant by Song Lingge.

This restaurant was a place Jingchu and Yu Shaofen frequented after they started dating. The food there was especially to Yu Shaofen's liking, particularly the Sichuan peppercorn chicken, which was her favorite.

Couples in love often like to have little secrets that belong only to the two of them, and this restaurant is Yu Shaofen and Jing Chu's secret base.

"Yu Shaofen, you're not being fair!" Song Lingge said after taking a bite of the Sichuan peppercorn chicken.

Having grown accustomed to Song Jianmei's cooking, I occasionally tried other restaurants' dishes, and they were quite good.

Yu Shaofen added some cold side dishes to her bowl: "Try this and see if you can eat it."

Song Lingge raised an eyebrow. It seemed that Yu Shaofen was still angry and wanted to tease her again.

However, she had kicked a hornet's nest. Song Lingge recognized this kind of dish, but it was not common in Nanzhou.

Song Lingge deliberately took a big bite in front of Yu Shaofen: "Delicious, really delicious, what is this?"

Yu Shaofen's eyes widened: "You can actually eat that? Doesn't it make you feel disgusted?"

Song Lingge picked up another piece with her chopsticks: "It's not disgusting at all, it's delicious! What, you think it's disgusting? Yu Shaofen, you ordered something you think is disgusting for me to eat, tsk tsk tsk... and you call yourself a good friend!"

Yu Shaofen knew she was in the wrong, but she still pouted and said defiantly, "Who told you to help Jingchu?"

"Who said I was on Jing Chu's side? Don't you know who my good friend is? I did this for you, okay? If Jing Chu hadn't cried to Nan Sheng about it, I wouldn't have known anything about what happened."

"He cried?" Yu Shaofen asked in surprise.

Song Lingge rolled her eyes: "You're still worried about him? If you ask me, it's the men's friendship that's so strong. Even Jing Chu, with his stubborn temper, can cry to Nan Sheng about it. And what about you?"

Yu Shaofen, realizing she was in the wrong, put more Sichuan peppercorn chicken on Song Lingge's plate and said with a smile, "I admit I was wrong! It's not that I didn't want to tell you, I just didn't know where to begin. Please don't be angry!"

"So what exactly happened between you and Jing Chu? Why did you suddenly decide to break up?"

Getting back to the main point, Yu Shaofen's face was tinged with an unyielding sadness.

"I don't know how things got to this point."

Song Lingge recalled what Jing Chu had said last night and asked, "Do you suspect that Jing Chu still has feelings for Li Meimei and still likes her?"

Yu Shaofen lowered her head and murmured, "Maybe I don't like them as much anymore. But you can't forget the person you liked at the beginning so quickly. I know I shouldn't dwell on it now, but I can't help it."

As she spoke, Yu Shaofen burst into tears.

Song Lingge felt sorry for her and patted her back to comfort her. She knew all too well that Yu Shaofen was a person with emotional purity issues; the more she liked Jing Chu, the harder it was for her to accept that Jing Chu still had the imprint of other people in his heart.

Even though I know rationally that it's all in the past, I just can't get over it psychologically.

Yu Shaofen tried many times, but she couldn't convince herself.

"It's okay, if you can't accept it, then you can't accept it. He's just a man, it's not a big deal."

Meanwhile, in the other private room...

Jing Chu leaned against the wall, pressed his ear to the wall, and said with dissatisfaction, "Is your Song Lingge helping me or hurting me?"

"Speak louder, or they'd better notice."

Jing Chu walked over helplessly, sat down, and downed a glass of beer in one gulp.

"Just sit here and wait patiently. Listen to what they have to say. There are some things girls are too shy to tell you, but they'll tell their best friends. Don't you also want to know Shaofen's true thoughts?"

Qiao Nansheng's words struck a chord with Jing Chu, who had no choice but to wait patiently.

Love is truly the most tormenting thing in the world.

“But I like this man, and I want to be with him.” This is Yu Shaofen’s dilemma.

"Oh, so you want to be with someone else now? When I heard him crying yesterday, he said that you were very cold-blooded and just left with a 'break up' message."

"That's what he said about me?"

"Yeah, I was just saying I didn't expect you to be so heartless, all my sincerity was wasted," Song Lingge said, adding fuel to the fire.

Yu Shaofen gritted her teeth in anger, and Song Lingge continued, "I never thought you two would be a good match from the start. Jing Chu has too impulsive a temper and speaks too bluntly. He's not even as good as that guy from the Mechanical Engineering Department who's pursuing you, the one surnamed Wang."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Jing Chu is much better than him. His temper isn't impulsive, it's just straightforward. He speaks frankly because he has no ill intentions."

"How come I didn't see so many good qualities in him? But even if he does have these qualities, he liked Li Meimei before he met you. That alone is wrong, and we can't forgive him."

"Actually, you can't blame him. He did have feelings for Li Meimei before, but that's all in the past. Besides, they didn't even have a proper relationship, so it's unreasonable to bring that up."

Song Lingge stopped talking and just kept smiling at Yu Shaofen.

Yu Shaofen realized what was happening and said, both embarrassed and annoyed, "Are you trying to trick me?"

"You're such a weird girl. If you want to break up, I'll speak up for you, okay? You're not trying to break up at all. You're just using me to praise that guy Jing Chu."

"No way! What's so great about him?"

"Whether he's good or not, you'll have to ask him! I don't know who said he's both straightforward and naive."

"Song-Ling-Ge!" Yu Shaofen was furious and embarrassed.

"Don't be angry, I'm just repeating what you said, I didn't embellish it at all."

It would have been better not to explain; the more she explained, the angrier she became. Yu Shaofen angrily put her hands in her pockets and ignored Song Lingge.

"When it comes to feelings, no one can really tell you, not even your best friends like us. It all depends on what you feel in your own heart. Actually, you just said yourself that Jingchu's flaws are minor, which are actually her strengths. It's not easy for two people to come together, so don't say 'break up' so easily."

"Lingge——"

"But if one day you really feel that Jingchu is not good, I will definitely stand by your side!"

"Thump—" The door to the private room was suddenly kicked open.
