254: Two women getting along well

Su Yue's movement when going out did not escape Lin Jia's eyes. When he parked his electric scooter, Lin Jia, who had been nervous and sleepless all night, knew he was back.

Lin Jia was a little worried that something had happened to Su Yue, so she walked straight out of the courtyard.

"Su..."

What Lin Jia wanted to say stopped instantly when she saw Su Yue's waist being held by a woman.

Her eyes widened slightly, a little surprised. "What, what's going on?"

Lin Jia believed in Su Yue's character and knew he wouldn't do anything to trick women, so where did this person come from?

Su Yue was also a little surprised to see Lin Jia awake at this hour. "Lin Jia, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Having been roommates with Lin Jia for so many years, this roommate of his would absolutely never appear anywhere outside her room after eating. How was it that she was still here now, when it was already past midnight?

Lin Jia's face suddenly turned red. She didn't dare tell Su Yue that she had been sitting in the living room since he left, worried that something had happened to him.

She changed the subject, looked at Tian Yuwei sleeping soundly leaning against Su Yue's back, and said, "Shall I help you get her inside?"

Su Yue was also worrying about how to handle Tian Yuwei, who was sleeping soundly with her arms around his waist behind him. Now that Lin Jia offered to help, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

Perhaps it was because Tian Yuwei had been busy all night and was also drugged, but after Lin Jia and Su Yue struggled to put her on Su Yue's bed, she didn't even wake up.

At first, Lin Jia was surprised to see Su Yue about to put the person in his room. "Su Yue, you..."

Su Yue knew as soon as he heard that Lin Jia had misunderstood him, and quickly explained, "Lin Jia, don't misunderstand. I just thought it wasn't good for a woman to sleep on the sofa, so I put her on my bed so she could sleep better."

Hearing this, Lin Jia felt a strong knot in her heart, but seeing Su Yue's calm expression, she found it hard to say more and could only purse her lips, listening to Su Yue's arrangement.

Under the room's bright incandescent light, Lin Jia finally saw the woman's face clearly. She was a little surprised.

"Isn't this Tian Yuwei?"

"Lin Jia, you know her?"

Lin Jia nodded affirmatively. "Yes, I just saw her on the trending searches..."

Lin Jia suddenly widened her eyes, a little disbelieving.

"Su Yue, the person Lin Jia is hugging on the trending search wouldn't be you, would it?"

After saying that, Lin Jia looked Su Yue up and down carefully again, becoming more and more certain of her idea, and her heart instantly turned cold.

Su Yue was wearing the white shirt and suit pants from the high-definition picture on the trending search, and even his build was just as tall and straight.

She hadn't thought about it that deeply just now, but now, comparing them carefully, she realized the person on the trending search was clearly Su Yue.

Su Yue hadn't intended to hide it from Lin Jia, so he nodded generously.

"Yes, that's me."

Lin Jia took a sharp breath, feeling inexplicably unhappy in her heart.

"What exactly is going on? Did you suddenly go out tonight because of Tian Yuwei?"

Su Yue frowned, a little headache-inducing. "This is a long story, and it's hard for me to explain it clearly to you right now. I'll tell you later."

"Oh, right Lin Jia, I want Tian Yuwei to stay here for the next few days. Don't worry, I've talked to her, and she agreed to only stay in my area. She won't mess with your things."

Hearing Su Yue say this, Lin Jia felt even more unhappy.

She didn't know how Su Yue met Tian Yuwei, and judging by Su Yue's protective stance towards Tian Yuwei, their relationship was clearly not ordinary.

Lin Jia suppressed the urge to complain and said calmly, "Since you've said so, it's naturally not good for me to stop you. But you're giving your bed to Tian Yuwei, where will you sleep these next few days?"

Su Yue: "I'll just sleep on the sofa."

Lin Jia frowned. "The sofa is so small, you can't even lie down comfortably, let alone sleep."

Su Yue shook his head. "It's fine, it's just for a few nights, I can handle it."

Although Lin Jia still didn't approve of Su Yue, she knew this was the best solution, so she didn't say anything more in the end.

Su Yue took an extra blanket from the wardrobe and walked towards the sofa. Before leaving the room, he didn't forget to remind Lin Jia.

"Lin Jia, you're a woman, you should know how to remove makeup. Please help Tian Yuwei remove the makeup on her face."

Although Lin Jia was very reluctant, she still nodded.

Only then did Su Yue feel relieved, hugging the blanket and returning to the sofa, closing his room door.

By the time Lin Jia finished, Su Yue also happened to walk out of the kitchen, holding two bowls of noodles.

After being busy all night, he was already hungry.

When Lin Jia came out and saw the noodles Su Yue had cooked for her, her expression improved slightly.

Lin Jia didn't know why seeing Su Yue bring another woman back and the intimate scene with her made her feel so uncomfortable and blocked up inside.

She asked, "Su Yue, can you tell me what's going on now?"

Su Yue nodded and told her everything that happened that night.

After listening, Lin Jia couldn't help but curse out loud in pain. "These people are really beasts, they actually drugged girls!"

Su Yue comforted the angry Lin Jia. "It's okay, I won't let them get away with it."

Lin Jia suddenly gripped her chopsticks tightly, feeling nervous. The noodles, which she had originally found delicious, now felt a little hard to swallow.

Su Yue didn't immediately notice Lin Jia's unusual behavior. It was only after he finished eating and looked up to see that Lin Jia still had more than half a bowl of noodles left that he asked in confusion, "Lin Jia, don't the noodles suit your taste?"

Lin Jia's conflicted expression paused, and a look of difficulty appeared on her face. She was struggling inside, wondering whether or not to tell Su Yue the truth.

Su Yue pressed on, "What's wrong? Is someone bullying you at the company?"

Lin Jia looked up at Su Yue's worried face, took a deep breath, and finally decided to tell him everything.

"Su Yue, there's a rich young man who's been pursuing me relentlessly these past few days. I was hoping you could help me with something."

Unlike Lin Jia's struggle, Su Yue readily agreed when he heard her say that.

"Sure, how do you want me to help you? I can do anything."

Lin Jia was a little surprised. "You're willing to help me?"

Su Yue said indifferently, "What's the big deal? As long as you need it, I'll help you."

The problem that had troubled Lin Jia for most of the day was solved so easily by Su Yue, and she also felt relieved.

She showed her first smile of the night and said sincerely, "Su Yue, you're really a good person."

Su Yue inexplicably received a 'good person card' and instantly felt a little numb.

He quickly stopped this strange development. "Stop, I know I'm a good person, but I'm not helping you blindly. We've been roommates for so many years, and you're still a member of Yuan. It's only right that I help you."

Lin Jia said affirmatively, "Mhm, I know."

Su Yue looked at Lin Jia's calm appearance and instinctively felt that the situation was still a bit strange, but he didn't say anything more.

"If you need my help with something, just tell me in advance, and I'll help you."

Lin Jia nodded. "There's a party next Saturday, and I'd like you to go with me as my boyfriend."

Su Yue nodded. "Okay, no problem."

After finishing the noodles, Lin Jia washed the bowls. The two said goodnight to each other, and Su Yue curled up on the sofa and slept for the night.

When he woke up the next day, Su Yue felt like all his bones were falling apart.

Although the sofa was a two-seater, it was still too cramped for Su Yue, an adult male, to sleep on for a night. Both of his legs could only hang in the air.

He could even hear his bones creaking whenever Su Yue moved.

Su Yue took a deep breath and thought that maybe he should just make a bed on the floor in the basement tonight; he really couldn't sleep well on this sofa.

Just then, his room door opened, and Tian Yuwei, who had slept well, walked out of his room leisurely.

When she saw Su Yue, her face was still slightly red.

"Su, Su Yue, did you change my clothes for me?"

Su Yue's mind was still a bit foggy after just waking up. He asked blankly, "Huh?"

Tian Yuwei shyly fiddled with the hem of her clothes, her voice a little softer. "My clothes were changed."

Su Yue saw Tian Yuwei's action, then became clear-headed, and quickly shook his head to explain, "No."

The shy expression on Tian Yuwei's face instantly froze. Su Yue didn't notice Tian Yuwei's abnormality and continued to explain to her, "Didn't I tell you yesterday that I have a female roommate? She helped you change your clothes yesterday."

"If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have known how to get you off the electric scooter last night."

Tian Yuwei's face turned pale, and she quickly apologized to Su Yue. "Yes, I'm sorry! I caused you trouble last night. I was too sleepy then and couldn't stay awake, so I fell asleep."

Su Yue waved his hand. "It's okay, you don't need to be so nervous. My roommate is a very nice person."

Just after praising Lin Jia, Lin Jia came down from upstairs.

She happened to hear Su Yue praising her, and immediately raised her eyebrows proudly. Her early morning annoyance was gone.

She was a little happy. "I didn't expect to hear such high praise from you."

Su Yue turned his head to see Lin Jia and immediately smiled. "No, I'm just telling the truth."

Lin Jia felt even better hearing that.

Meanwhile, the expression on Tian Yuwei's face changed repeatedly, and finally, she forced a smile and looked at Lin Jia.

"Thank you, I owe you a lot for last night."

Lin Jia wasn't a fan, and she also learned from Su Yue that the buzzing news online was all false. She had a good impression of Tian Yuwei, who was beautiful but maintained her innocence.

She smiled kindly at her and said, "You don't need to be so reserved. Since Su Yue brought you back, just make yourself at home here for the next few days and stay at ease."

Tian Yuwei was a little surprised, but also very touched by the kindness Lin Jia showed.

"Thank you both. Once this period is over, I will definitely repay you."

Su Yue was also surprised that Lin Jia accepted Tian Yuwei so quickly, but he was also very happy to see that Lin Jia wasn't angry about him bringing someone back.

The happy atmosphere between them didn't last long. Tian Yuwei's expression changed after picking up her phone, which had been silenced all night.

At that time, the three of them were eating breakfast at the dining table. Seeing Tian Yuwei's serious expression, Lin Jia frowned. "Did something happen online again? Do you need help?"

Because of her work, Lin Jia knew many wealthy businessmen and socialites, many of whom had entertainment resources at hand. She could ask those people for this favor.

Tian Yuwei shook her head. "No need, I can handle it. I'm just a little disappointed in my so-called best friend."

It was a shame that she had considered Tang Juan her only good friend for so many years. Who knew this person had always looked down on her behind her back, and even deliberately found paparazzi to ruin her reputation and sell her for resources.

For so many years, she had never yielded to capital, and that's why her path had been particularly difficult, but she had never harbored any malicious thoughts.

Who knew that one day she would be sold to capital by her so-called 'best friend'? How could this not make her feel disheartened?

Lin Jia was a little surprised. "Best friend? Are you talking about that Tang Juan? Aren't you and her on very good terms?"

Although Lin Jia wasn't a fan, in order to have topics to discuss with socialites, she would pay attention to news in various fields to avoid being left behind by the fast-paced development of the era.

She also had an impression of the best friend Tian Yuwei mentioned.

After all, a good best friend like Tian Yuwei, who became famous herself and would also help her unknown best friend gain fame and fight for more resources, was especially precious in the entertainment industry where interests came first.

Many people envied Tang Juan for being so well taken care of by Tian Yuwei and wished they could have a best friend like Tian Yuwei.

Tian Yuwei felt only irony when she heard Lin Jia say that she and Tang Juan had a good relationship.

She said with some self-mockery, "We do have a good relationship, so good that she sold me out, and I even obediently counted the money for her."

Lin Jia's eyes widened in shock, and she was choked by such a huge piece of gossip.

Had she been disconnected from the internet? How could they be praising each other as good best friends in an interview the day before yesterday, and now their friendship had turned into a plastic one?

Lin Jia looked at Su Yue's expressionless face, feeling a little surprised again.

Could it be that Su Yue also knew about this?

Tian Yuwei didn't want to dwell on the issue of Tang Juan anymore. She asked Su Yue, "Su Yue, can I use your computer for the next few days? It's not convenient for me to go back and get my things now."

Su Yue nodded. "It's okay, go ahead and use it. If you need any help, feel free to say so."

Tian Yuwei nodded but didn't intend to actually trouble them with anything. She took her phone and walked out of the courtyard to call her agent.

She had just seen the screenshot her agent sent her, which was the agent asking Detective Ba Ge who had given him the information. After receiving the money, Detective Ba Ge didn't hide anything and directly answered her question.

It was his answer that sent chills down Tian Yuwei's spine. His answer was the two words "Tang Juan".

The agent quickly answered Tian Yuwei's call. She couldn't control herself and kept cursing Tang Juan as an ungrateful person. Tian Yuwei had helped her so much, yet this heartless person turned around and sold Tian Yuwei out.

Tian Yuwei was also very angry at first, but after hearing her agent curse Tang Juan non-stop for ten minutes without taking a break, most of her anger disappeared.

Although her best friend was unreliable, her agent was reliable!

The agent was a little tired from cursing and hadn't heard Tian Yuwei's voice for a while, so she suddenly felt nervous.

"Wei Wei, you don't still have feelings for that ungrateful person, do you?"

Her voice got much louder. "She treated you like that, if you still have feelings for her, then you're truly foolish!"

Seeing her agent so anxious, Tian Yuwei quickly explained to her, "No, don't worry, I definitely won't let Tang Juan off the hook. I'll make her spit out all the blood money she ate off me."
