Zhao Nan was speechless and felt like giving Xia Xin a good shake. Zhao Nan thought, ‘Could she not differentiate between friends and foes in such situations?’
With a serious tone, Zhao Nan said, “I’ll just reason with her. I won’t resort to violence. Don’t worry. However, when I speak, it’s best if you don’t interrupt. You tend to be too soft-hearted, and if you butt in, the issue won’t get resolved.”
Feeling helpless, Xia Xin nodded in agreement. Zhao Nan then proceeded to knock on the door. After what seemed like forever, Wu Jia finally answered the door.
Wu Jia had changed into a different outfit and applied makeup. Irritated, she exclaimed, “Will you ever stop bothering me? First, you asked me to come into the room, then you asked me to come out. What’s the matter now? Don’t you know I need rest?”
After saying that, Wu Jia looked up and realized that the person knocking wasn’t Xia Xin. She added, “Oh, there’s a guest at home, and you didn’t inform me? But you are Xia Xin’s guest, not mine. Do I really need to come out and greet you?”
Zhao Nan sneered, “You don’t need to come out because we’re not here to see you. We came to talk about the matter of you staying at Xia Xin’s place.” 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Wu Jia, visibly annoyed, asked, “What’s there to talk about? Make it quick; I have plans and need to head out soon.”
Zhao Nan said, “I’ll keep it short. I hope you can move out.”
Indignant, Wu Jia replied, “Why should I move out? When Xia Xin invited me, she didn’t mention staying only for two nights. She said I could stay here until I found a job.”
Zhao Nan stifled a laugh, “Xia Xin only invited a guest home. Do you consider yourself a guest?”
Wu Jia looked around at the mess she had made in the apartment and cheerfully said, “Indeed, I’ve been treating this place as my home. But there’s no need to thank me.”
Zhao Nan couldn’t help but be amazed. Despite having encountered all kinds of shameless people in the entertainment industry, she had never met anyone quite like Wu Jia.
“Miss Wu, am I right? Your shamelessness has reached a point where you no longer care about others’ opinions, hasn’t it?” Zhao Nan said.
Wu Jia replied, “I advise you to watch your words. You’re not the owner of this apartment, and you’re just a guest. You have no right to kick me out.”
Zhao Nan was gritting her teeth in anger.
Worried that Wu Jia might lose her temper, Xia Xin motioned for Zhao Nan not to speak. Then, she sat up straight and said, “I’m delighted that you understand the concept of rights. Let me be clear: this room is occupied. I hope you can move out.”
If Zhao Nan had said that, Wu Jia might have played dumb. But hearing it from Xia Xin, Wu Jia had no valid counterarguments.
With a frown, Wu Jia asked, “Why? When you invited me to stay, you didn’t mention that I could only stay for two nights. You said I could stay here until I found a job.”
Xia Xin pointed to the mess around her and said, “I didn’t anticipate that you’d spend these two days doing nothing but lazing around, causing chaos at home. I’m not a wealthy person, and this is my own home. I don’t want to create trouble for myself. Initially, I helped you out of goodwill, but your actions have crossed the line.”
After hearing that, Zhao Nan was shocked. She thought, ‘Is this still my good friend Xia Xin, who used to be easygoing and tried to avoid conflicts at all costs?’
Wu Jia began to play the victim again. She grabbed Xia Xin’s arm and said, “But I’m currently broke. Where do you expect me to go?”
Xia Xin sneered, “Didn’t you order takeout? It seems like you still have money. So, why did you come here in the first place?”
Before, Xia Xin hadn’t thought much about it. She hadn’t realized that Wu Jia would act so unreasonably. Besides, Wu Jia’s actions didn’t directly affect her interests, so she tried to be friendly. But now, the situation has changed. Wu Jia’s behavior had become a nuisance, and Xia Xin wasn’t the kind of person to tolerate trouble when she saw it.
Wu Jia was silenced by Xia Xin’s words and couldn’t respond for a while.
Xia Xin continued, “We’re all adults here, and we should maintain some dignity. I hope you can leave my place. As for the toiletries and pajamas I bought for you, consider them gifts. If you want them, take them. If you don’t, leave them here; it doesn’t matter..”
