In the end, Xu Jiao couldn’t figure out what the problem was that made Shen Yelan look like that.

Because she found…

Shen Yelan seemed to be keeping a distance from her.

Compared with the original appearance of being flattered when she took the initiative to approach and greet her, Shen Yelan now still doesn’t dare to look at her very much, but Xu Jiao can clearly feel the gesture of the other person raising hands with restraint in it.

Yes, restraint.

“Sister Jiaojiao, what’s going on with this surname Shen these days? Why is she so cold and indifferent to us? It makes me feel like a hot face and cold butt when I talk to her.”

(T/N: hot face, cold butt is the literal translation, but the idiom is “to show warm feelings but meet with cold rebuke” or in other words to be snubbed despite showing good intentions)

This morning.

It is rare for Su Xi to wake up early, and finally caught up with Xu Jiao for breakfast. She improved on the quiz two days ago and got a score that she didn’t dare to think about before, so she was in a good mood during this time.

When she saw Shen Yelan just now, she happily said, “Morning.”

As a result, Shen Yelan nodded lightly without raising her eyes, and only replied “Yeah.”

After that, half of the bread in her hand was eaten, and she got up and went back to the house without a word of greeting, nor did her eyes glance in the direction of the two of them. The whole person looked extremely cold.

This was why Su Xi had complained.

Xu Jiao glanced thoughtfully at the direction Shen Yelan was walking away. After a while, she returned her attention to the dinner plate in front of her with a faint expression, cutting the luncheon meat inside, slowly. To answer Su Xi’s words:

“Don’t you always call her “surname Shen?” This kind of calling “surname Shen,” and yet only you are allowed to be rude and she is not allowed to be cold-hearted?”

Su Xi stomped her feet and called her aggrievedly: “Sister Jiaojiao, which side are you on?”

Xu Jiao swallowed the food in her mouth, looked at her without a smile, and then took the tissue next to her and wiped the corners of her lips. Then she replied, “It’s not on your side anyway——she and Old Shen have the same surname. You don’t call someone’s name every day. If they meet outside, you call out with a surname Shen. Who knows which one you’re calling?”

Su Xi murmured and defended: “Old Shen is much more interesting than her, Shen Wenwen is so interesting, it’s not the same as this dull gourd.”

Having said that, Su Xi raised her wrist to avoid letting the chain on her wrist fall into the warm soy milk, and did not forget to turn the topic back:

“Hey, really, if you say she ignores me——”

“Sister, haven’t you noticed that this little girl is also very cold to you lately? Making it clear, she is a tenant and you are the landlord, and she still owes you money. Are all the people who owe money in this world like that?”

Xu Jiao walked to the kitchen with the newly used tissue and threw it into the wastebasket. When she came out, she heard Su Xi’s awkward sentence. She took the first two steps and knocked on her chair, although her tone of voice was still gentle, there is a momentum that forces people to obey.
