Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 1391: 354: Fourth Sister Makes a High-profile Return!

Only sees her as a sister...

When Adelle heard this sentence, her heart sank halfway down.

Could it be that all this time, Shangguan Xu really only saw her as a sister?

Zhu Qianye took in all of Adelle’s expressions and continued, "Adelle, don’t be sad. In this world, there are countless good men. Why must you hang from just one tree?"

Adelle looked at Zhu Qianye and spoke with difficulty, "Does he... does he really only see me as a sister?"

"Certainly!" Zhu Qianye replied. "If he really liked you, how could he not confess to you after all this time?"

Adelle remained silent.

Zhu Qianye continued, "Adelle, at least I have been in love before. I know men better than you. If a man really likes a girl, he will definitely make the first move. It’s impossible for him to wait until now! So, I advise you not to confess to him!"

Zhu Qianye is such a smart person.

She could see that Shangguan Xu had his eyes and heart full of Adelle.

As long as Adelle confessed, Shangguan Xu would certainly agree.

If Shangguan Xu agreed to Adelle,

how could she then marry into a wealthy family?

Thus, it was imperative to prevent Adelle from confessing.

Adelle said, "But I feel like he’s slightly different towards me..."

Zhu Qianye said seriously, "Adelle, because you’re my best friend, I’m telling you this! I don’t want you to end up not even being friends with the person you like. Shangguan Xu is a man. If he really liked you, how could he not have said anything after all these years?"

"Men can’t hide their feelings. Leave everything else aside and just talk about yourself. Don’t you receive love letters every day?"

"Has Shangguan Xu ever written you a love letter?"

"You’re a girl, and a girl shouldn’t shamelessly chase after someone!"

"So, Shangguan Xu doesn’t like you at all. He doesn’t care about you. He’s good to you because he sees you as a sister."

Adelle’s little bit of confidence crumbled bit by bit under Zhu Qianye’s words.

That’s right!

Zhu Qianye was correct.

If Shangguan Xu really liked her, it would be impossible for him not to confess all this time.

Adelle sighed, and her good mood vanished completely.

"Adelle, don’t be sad," Zhu Qianye said, holding Adelle’s wrist, "It’s not worth it for a man. You’re so beautiful; you can definitely find someone better in the future."

"Mm." Adelle nodded.

"Come on, let’s go watch a movie. A really good one was just released recently."

"Okay." Adelle walked forward with Zhu Qianye.

Zhu Qianye continued, "Adelle, you have no experience in love at all. You’ll definitely suffer in the future. Why not let me introduce a boyfriend to you, so you can practice first?"

"No need." Adelle said dispiritedly.

Zhu Qianye smiled and said, "Adelle, this isn’t the you I know! Is it worth it for one guy? Cheer up! You’ll find someone a thousand or ten thousand times better than Shangguan Xu in the future!"

"There won’t be a man better than him."

Every time Adelle thought of Shangguan Xu marrying another woman in the future, she felt at a loss for words.

It was just too painful!

"Find someone like your brother-in-law," Zhu Qianye continued, "Look at how happy your sister is now! Living in a big manor, with a butler and maids serving her..."

In the end, Zhu Qianye’s eyes were filled with envy.

Although Ni Yang married well, Zhu Qianye had her principles.

She would never become a mistress or interfere in someone else’s relationship.

Being a third party was disgraceful!

Her family might not be as well-off as Adelle’s, but they were still reputable. If she become a mistress, wouldn’t it be a disgrace to her parents?

She didn’t want her parents to be shamed.

She wanted her parents to be proud of her!

Adelle and Shangguan Xu were different.

These two had never been together from the start, so how could there be a talk of a third party?

So, being with Shangguan Xu was aboveboard!

"My brother-in-law is great, but he’s not Shangguan Xu. I only like Shangguan Xu," Adelle continued. "Even if Shangguan Xu were a pauper with nothing, I would still like him!"

She fell in love with Shangguan Xu at first sight!

It started with his appearance and was sustained by his character!

Zhu Qianye sneered coldly in her heart.

This Adelle really knew how to put on an act.
