Before Si Xiaohui could stop them, the words had slipped out of her mouth.
"Si Chen, you must be joking! Everyone knows Lijuan is into Boyi. How could she be in a relationship with you?"
Having grown up alongside Zhang Lijuan, Si Xiaohui knew her well. Zhang Lijuan was too proud and arrogant to be interested in someone like Si Chen.
"Xiaohui," Si Chen scolded, his brow furrowing in reprimand.
The colour had just returned to Si Boyi's face when Si Xiaohui's words made him blush crimson once again, casting an involuntary glance at Tong Yao.
Si Xiaohui realized she had misspoke only to stay silent, with her head down and eating in silence. She felt irritated, having been kept in the dark about such a significant matter. Was this how they treated her, like a fool?
In contrast, Tong Yao kept her composure as if the matter did not concern her at all.
