Chapter 2999: Chapter 2997: That’s Not How You Back Out
"Ye Li, has no one ever told you that you can be pretty domineering sometimes?" Qin Jiale figured it wasn’t worth arguing anymore. Better let it go; saying more wouldn’t help, better not to say it.
"No, you’re the first." It’s not that no one dared, it’s just that anyone who spoke to him like that usually couldn’t stand well afterwards.
Ye Zishu had kicked him out of his room many times already, so yeah, people don’t usually speak to him that way and remain standing.
"Really?" Qin Jiale had heard Ye Zishu complain before, but here he is saying no. How could he believe that?
"Truly, no one. We’ve arrived, see what you want to eat, order whatever, it’s on me today." Ye Li rarely dined out and never talked about treating people.
Having not lived here for years, he didn’t know anyone, and Pang Chao hadn’t transferred here yet, so yeah, he really didn’t have any friends right now.
The classmates wanted to hang out with him, but he wasn’t impressed by their enthusiasm, so he didn’t hang out with them. Instead, he preferred being alone.
So, in his class, apart from Qin Jiale, he didn’t really play well with anyone.
Under such circumstances, if he did anything, it wouldn’t be possible, and largely, he thought people simply assumed he was a rich kid from some big family, which he wasn’t.
So, when he found out what was the deal, he didn’t hang out with them; instead, he chose to keep to himself and be a lone wolf.
If people saw him with Qin Jiale, they probably wouldn’t believe it and think they mistook him for someone else.
Therefore, saying and doing more would be useless, because what they didn’t want was exactly what he desired.
He didn’t care what others said or thought; to him, as long as Qin Jiale knew what was going on, that was enough.
"So nice of you, no ulterior motives?" Qin Jiale looked skeptically at the suddenly kind Ye Li, feeling a bit uneasy.
"Qin Jiale, is that really how you see me?" Ye Li felt deflated, not realizing he was seen as so terrible. His rare good deed still got questioned.
"Mainly because you’ve never been this nice, so I wondered if there’s a trap." He used to snatch her food all the time; when was he ever this good? So, yeah, having a treat like this seemed almost unreal.
"Fine, if you don’t want to eat, let’s just go." Ye Li was truly speechless.
Did he dig his own grave here? He hadn’t even done anything, so why was he now disliked?
"Come on, you can’t just back out like that." Qin Jiale was considering heading back, but seeing his reluctant expression, she changed her mind. It’s not like this is the first time she’s known this guy. Opportunities like this are rare.
Now that there’s a chance to cash in, why let it slip by?
So, upon hearing Ye Li’s words, she changed her mind.
"You’re so fickle, weren’t you just not willing to eat, and now you changed your tune that fast?" Although Ye Li said that, he started helping her pick out some dishes.
He picked out some of what she liked to eat, though he didn’t pick a lot.
"That was then, now I feel like eating, can’t I?" Qin Jiale didn’t think there was anything wrong with being changeable; on the contrary, she thought it was quite nice.
