You can do it. Yuan Silei lifted her head and gazed at Ye Lengan with determination, her eyes filled with conviction. As long as youre willing, you can certainly help me. Right now, youre the only one who can.

In recent times, their family company had encountered significant problems. If not resolved promptly, the company might face bankruptcy. Her parents had been scrambling to seek help during this period, but their efforts were in vain. If the financial issues persisted, their family would be in deep trouble.

She had sought help from Ye Xiyuan and other friends, but none were willing to a.s.sist. Today, upon seeing Ye Lengan, she decided to give it one last try.

Why do you think that l, a fake heiress driven out by the Ye family, can help

you? Ye Lengan found it amusing. So, youve chosen the wrong person.

No wonder she found Yuan Sileis actions peculiar today! It turned out she had a favor to ask, explaining why she kept clinging to her.

You can help me. Hearing Ye Lengans rejection, Yuan Silei became anxious. Now that youre with the master of the Huangfu family, a word from you could easily resolve our familys predicament.

It was the reason she sought Ye Lengan. Among the people she knew, only Ye Lengan could help.

After listening to Yuan Sileis plea, a trace of mockery flashed in Ye Lengans eyes. l find it strange. Ive repeatedly emphasized that we are strangers now, but today you approached me like this. I wondered why. So, that was the reason! However Please excuse me for not being able to help with this matter. Youve approached the wrong person.

Why? Yuan Sileis voice heightened upon Ye Lengans rejection. However, realizing everyones gaze on her, she promptly lowered her tone. Looking at Ye Lengan with pleading eyes, she said, For you, its just a matter of saying a few words. Besides, you wont suffer any losses, right?

Hearing Yuan Sileis words, Ye Lengan was speechless. Yuan Silei, I hope you understand this. Do I have any obligation to help you? Were not even friends.

Why should I help you?

Before, when there was a choice between her and Ye Xiyuan, Yuan Silei had sided with Ye Xiyuan. Now, facing trouble, instead of seeking Ye Xiyuan, Yuan Silei came to her. Did she seem like an easy target?

Yuan Silei wore an embarra.s.sed expression, but she persisted. Lengan, I know youve misunderstood me because of Xiyuans situation. But everything Ive done was for your benefit. Ive always treated you as my best friend.

Please, dont taint the word friend like this. Ye Lengan sneered, continuing, A friend is someone who stands by the other persons side without hesitation, no matter what happens. Someone like you, self-righteous and only playing the savior, is just a sanctimonious att.i.tude. I wouldnt dare to consider someone a friend who could switch sides at any moment!

Seeing Ye Lengans resolute expression, Yuan Silei grew anxious. Lengan, help me this time for the sake of our past relations.h.i.+p! I promise; after this, Ill never appear in front of you again.

l dont need your guarantee, Ye Lengan said mercilessly. l wont help you.

Yuan Silei, who do you think you are? Why should I help you?

Even she had never sought Huangfu Ruilings help for anything. Now, Yuan Silei wanted her to make such a request. Quite audacious!

Lengan, why must you be so heartless? Yuan Silei almost lost control of her emotions. Ive helped you many times before. Now, Im just asking for your help once. Its not difficult for you. Why are you so unwilling?

Hearing Yuan Silei mention the past, Ye Lengans expression darkened. Are

you trying to bring up old scores? Youve helped me a lot before. Havent I

helped you?

She despised this moral blackmail. They used to be friends, and while Yuan Silei had helped her, she had also a.s.sisted Yuan Silei a lot. Yet, Yuan Silei now only focused on what was advantageous to her.

l didnt Im not Yuan Silei stuttered, unable to explain herself. However, her eyes revealed resentment when looking at Ye Lengan.

She had come to Ye Lengan with high hopes today. Despite Ye Lengans cold att.i.tude due to Ye Xiyuan, she believed their many years of friends.h.i.+p wouldnt easily vanish. Furthermore, this matter was a simple task for Ye Lengan.

Perhaps, she could use this opportunity to reconcile with Ye Lengan. However, the reality was harsh. Facing her repeated pleas and even begging, Ye Lengan remained unmoved.

Ye Lengan sensed Yuan Sileis resentment but paid no heed. If you came to me for this, then our conversation ends here. Remember what you said earlier; this is the last time. In the future, when we meet, treat me as a stranger. Dont greet me or try to get close.

With that, she stood up, ready to leave.

Witnessing Ye Lengan about to depart, Yuan Silei panicked. She quickly stood up and grabbed Ye Lengans hand. Lengan, please help me this time! If you dont, my family is truly finished. Are you heartless enough to ignore our past friends.h.i.+p completely?

Past friends.h.i.+p? It was like hearing a joke, Ye Lengan laughed coldly as she spoke, Yuan Silei, its truly a joke coming from your mouth. Dont forget, your so-called friends.h.i.+p is when, between me and Ye Xiyuan, you chose to stand on Ye Xiyuans side. Do you not find it amusing that youre talking to me about friends.h.i.+p?

Her words made Yuan Sileis face grow paler, and the regret on her face was evident..
