Jiang Ling'er smiled and said lightly, "Ahem… I'm well aware of my own capabilities. It's not the time yet."
When Li Yu heard this, he said playfully, "When will the time come?"
Rumors said that Jiang Ling'er was brainless and vicious, but in Li Yu's eyes, Jiang Ling'er was very wise.
Jiang Ling'er thought for a moment and said seriously, "Soon."
Li Yu was stunned for a moment. Then he nodded with a smile. Not bad, this girl was really interesting. Li Yu said, "Alright, I'll wait for you to be ready."
Jiang Ling'er was stunned.
What did Li Yu mean?
Wen Nuan looked at the two of them meaningfully. She felt that there was something fishy going on. Moreover, the two of them did not seem to be close to each other.
Li Yu looked at his watch and said with a smile, "Then it's settled. I still have something to handle back at the company. I'll treat you to a meal another day. I'll make a move first. Goodbye."
Jiang Ling'er nodded instinctively.
Li Yu looked at Wen Nuan. Li Yu smiled and said, "Miss Wen, I have something important to do. I'll take my leave."
"Okay, see you around, Mr. Li," Wen Nuan said.
…
After Li Yu left, Jiang Ling'er's mind was still filled with doubts. What was settled? What did they agree on exactly?
Wen Nuan saw that Jiang Ling'er was frowning in a daze. She coughed lightly and said coyly, "Ling'er, Li Yu seems to think very highly of you."
Only then did Jiang Ling'er come back to her senses. After thinking for a moment, Jiang Ling'er asked, "Little Nuan, do you know Li Yu well?"
Wen Nuan said awkwardly, "To be honest, I don't know much, but I think Li Yu is a ruthless person."
Jiang Ling'er pondered for a while and asked, "What do you think about Li Yan compared to Li Yu?"
"Li Yan?" Wen Nuan asked with a look of disdain. Li Yan can't even compare to Li Yu."
Jiang Ling'er was surprised. Li Yu was actually so powerful. How did he lose in the novel to Li Yan? Was it because of Li Yan's halo as the male lead?
Wen Nuan continued, "My uncles told me that Li Yu is a business genius. Unfortunately, Li Yu doesn't like to be a businessman."
"I see." Jiang Ling'er nodded.
Wen Nuan thought for a moment and continued, "But the Li family has always been protective. Although they don't acknowledge Bai Xue, they still treat Li Yan especially well."
Jiang Ling'er smiled and said, "There are many powerful people in the Li family. Li Yan is the best among them. It's normal for the Li family to dote on him."
Wen Nuan said gloomily, "Ling'er, do you think Li Yu will be able to accept Bai Xue in the end?"
Jiang Ling'er pondered for a moment. In the original book, Li Yan established his own company for Bai Xue's sake and even destroyed the Li family because the Li family did not agree to Li Yan and Bai Xue being together. Li Yan decided that the Li family no longer needed to exist since they were so against his relationship with his lover.
"Probably not," Jiang Ling'er said, "but who knows?"
Now that the evil supporting actress had changed her soul, many things might change. It was also unknown if Bai Xue would be accepted by the Li family in the end.
Jiang Ling'er continued, "But I can tell that Li Yu is a very upright person and doesn't like petty people. Li Yu probably doesn't like someone like Bai Xue."
Wen Nuan smiled and said meaningfully, "From your tone, you seem to think highly of Li Yu."
Jiang Ling'er glanced at Wen Nuan and said, "I'll be frank. I don't want to be enemies with Li Yu."
Wen Nuan smiled and said, "Then you should make him your friend."
Jiang Ling'er shook her head and said with certainty, "Impossible."
When Wen Nuan heard this, she said, "Ling'er, don't be so pessimistic. Li Yu hates Bai Xue."
Jiang Ling 'er didn't want to hurt Wen Nuan's feelings. After thinking for a few seconds, she said, "Although Li Yu doesn't like Bai Xue, that doesn't mean that Li Yu will be on our side."
Wen Nuan immediately lowered her head and said, "Hmm."
"Ling'er, there's something I really want to ask you," Wen Nuan said after a while.
"What is it?" Jiang Ling'er asked.
Wen Nuan frowned and said, "Do you really have evidence that Bai Xue paid her way to enter our school?"
Jiang Ling'er smiled and shook her head. She said, "No, Jiang Jun destroyed it very quickly, but there was one thing he couldn't destroy, which is everything about Bai Xue's past."
Wen Nuan was a little disappointed as she said, "Sigh… I see. But many people will defend her by saying that even if she wasn't a good person in the past, she's a good person now, and that's all that matters."
Jiang Ling'er smiled and said, "Little Nuan, have you heard of the saying that the truth will prevail? Do you think Bai Xue can withstand the test of time?"
