Chapter 1279: The Mysterious Deskmate (49)

This was also the main reason why she had lied to them.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at her and asked, “Did you friends go overboard saying things to you?”

He Qiya was silent for a while. Then she smiled, but there was some bitterness in it.

Mu Xiaoxiao sighed and asked again, “Was it one of the three from earlier?”

They had really gone too far!

However, what she couldn’t understand was why He Qiya still wanted to treat them as friends even after what happened.

He Qiya shook her head and said, “No. That friend… went overseas with her boyfriend. She’s not in China now.”

“Isn’t it your birthday today? She’s not coming back to celebrate with you?” Mu Xiaoxiao was surprised.

“It’s only a birthday. It’s not a big deal,” said He Qiya.

“Today is your eighteenth birthday, right?” Mu Xiaoxiao looked straight into her eyes and saw a trace of sadness inside.

An eighteenth birthday marked the passage into adulthood.

Shouldn’t her good friends be there to celebrate this event with her?

He Qiya smiled and said, “My friend values boys over friends. Her boyfriend is more important to her. Of course I can’t be more important than her boyfriend.”

“It’s only she who thinks that you’re not important,” Mu Xiaoxiao said.

He Qiya’s smile stiffened.

“Why do you care about a friend like her? It’s not like you don’t have other friends,” Mu Xiaoxiao asked.

Those three girls from earlier weren’t very genuine friends either.

Evidently, He Qiya didn’t want to talk about this. Her expression didn’t look good as she hurriedly explained, “They treat me as a friend. It’s just…”

Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t bear to expose her.

He Qiya laughed bitterly, her eyes filled with envy as she looked at Mu Xiaoxiao. “You know what? Every time I see you together with Qiqing, I feel very envious. I feel very envious of your friendship.”

She could tell from their conversations and how they touched each other how good their friendship was.

Moreover, whenever Han Qiqing was chatting with Song Shijun at the Student Union, she would mention Mu Xiaoxiao from time to time.

He Qiya could always overhear Han Qiqing talking about the things that Xiaoxiao liked, the things that she hated, and what Xiaoxiao was doing that day.

To tell if a person really treated you as a friend, you could simply tell from how they behave and talk about you behind your back.

Thus, He Qiya could see how much Han Qiqing cared about Mu Xiaoxiao.

He Qiya was green with envy at the thought of their close friendship.

Mu Xiaoxiao said to her, “You can have that too, but you are looking for the wrong person. Those who don’t treat you as a friend shouldn’t be treated as a friend either!”

Hearing that, He Qiya stared blankly for some time.

Mu Xiaoxiao patted her shoulder and said, “Thank you for telling me about the gift. I wish you a happy birthday.”

With that said, she got up and walked over to Yin Shaojie.

At that moment, she felt that she should give He Qiya some space to think things over.

The three girls came over to Qiya.
