Su Qi knew that Qiu Yang was indeed talented in academics, but in some aspects, Qiu Yang was a bit clueless.

Qiu Yang wore an innocent expression and said, “Why am I the one being lectured? I didn’t say anything wrong. Don’t you all think that his presence is incredibly strong?”

Wen Nuan chimed in, “Honestly, this Li Yu is like a legend. Even among our parents’ generation, many admire him. But it seems like Li Yu doesn’t enjoy feeling superior.”

Qiu Yang seemed to grasp something and said seriously, “Oh, that’s why, even when he’s just sitting here, he can make people feel so reserved.”

Wen Nuan added, “Exactly, he’s very impressive. What do you think his relationship with Ling’er is?”

Qiu Yang boldly asserted, “What else could it be? They’re boyfriend and girlfriend!”

Wen Nuan, with a sly grin, asked, “Oh? How do you know?”

Qiu Yang replied confidently, “Isn’t it obvious? Their eyes when they look at each other are different from the way you look at a younger sibling!”

Wen Nuan became excited as if she had found a kindred spirit. She exclaimed, “So, do you think they make a perfect couple?”

Qiu Yang nodded and said, “They do seem quite compatible.”

Although Li Yu had a really strong presence, facing the elegant and cool Jiang Ling’er, they complemented each other perfectly.

Wen Nuan enthusiastically declared, “That’s exactly what 1 think. Ling’er and Li Yu are the first couple I’ve ever shipped.”

Jiang Ling’er:”…”

Jiang Ling’er looked at Wen Nuan with a helpless expression. What on earth was going on in this kid’s head?

Wen Nuan glanced at Jiang Ling’er’s exasperated look and asked, “Ling’er, what do you think is Mr. Li’s motive?”

Jiang Ling’er felt utterly exasperated and shook her head, saying, “I don’t know, but you all are definitely overthinking it.”

Wen Nuan turned to Su Qi and asked, “Su Qi, do you think we’re overthinking this?”

Su Qi looked at Jiang Ling’er seriously and replied, “I’ll tell you from a man’s perspective, that man definitely likes you.”

Jiang Ling’er remained silent, focusing on her food. She didn’t want to engage in any more pointless discussions with this group, or they would start speculating endlessly.

Wen Nuan said, “See, I’m not the only one who thinks this way. Don’t play dumb, thinking you can brush this matter aside.”

Jiang Ling’er was momentarily stunned and then expressed her annoyance, saying, “He’s just acting really well, and you all actually believe it? Let’s focus on eating. Are you guys so free? Besides, do you really think I’m worthy of his affection? Don’t forget, 1 had quite a notorious reputation before.”

Qiu Yang and Su Qi looked at each other in shock.

Wen Nuan scoffed, “You managed to win a Best Actress award, but you also made people dislike you so much. Then, you cleaned up your image in just a few months.”

Jiang Ling’er sighed in exasperation. “It’s really not what you think. Stop talking nonsense.”

Wen Nuan insisted, “Tell me, do you dislike him?”

Jiang Ling’er thought for a moment and then replied, “No, 1 just feel that your assumptions are unlikely. There’s a significant gap between him and me. It’s difficult for us to be together.”

Wen Nuan couldn’t believe it. “Really? Ling’er, why don’t you have any confidence?”

Jiang Ling’er said with a hint of frustration, “Wen Nuan, what are you even thinking?”

Wen Nuan questioned, “A gap? Where’s the gap? Why do you think you’re not on his level? Or is it because of that engagement with Li Yan? Isn’t that engagement already void? What else do you have to worry about?”

Qiu Yang and Su Qi exchanged glances again. There was a lot of information to process. Jiang Ling’er was still so young, and she already had an engagement? What was the relationship between this Li Yan and Li Yu? Were they brothers?

Seeing Qiu Yang and Su Qi’s expressions, Jiang Ling’er sighed and said, “Wen Nuan, you’re completely off the mark. There’s no connection between me and Li Yan.”

Wen Nuan, with an unyielding determination, asked, “Why not? Li Yu is outstanding, he likes you, and you two seem so compatible. Why not give it a try?”

Wen Nuan couldn’t fathom why Jiang Ling’er wouldn’t seize such a great opportunity. She thought about all the girls outside who dreamed of being with Li Yu, an unattainable figure.

Jiang Ling’er felt helpless. Not only had Li Yu not confessed yet, but even if he did, they had only known each other for a short time. Could they really start dating so quickly? She explained, “The reason is simple; I’m just not ready for a boyfriend.”

Su Qi chimed in directly, “Aren’t you afraid of missing out? You might regret it later..”
