The President is Being Shameless Again

However, these boys would tend to leave her be once they got to know her personality. When this happened, they often could not stand her.

Naturally, she did not like them back. As the granddaughter of the Yan family, she was aware of her status and would not easily allow herself to be courted by just any boy, regardless of how good-looking he was!

Yan Zhiqing felt that these boys were unreliable. They were still in school, yet they were spending their parent’s money as if it belonged to them; not to mention they did not see anything wrong with this. How capable were these boys if they had to rely on their family for money? Without their families, they were essentially worthless. That was why Yan Zhiqing had never given them much thought and had never dated any of them.

Lin Chu nodded. “I’m being honest here. It’s just so much fun to tease you. When we praise you, you may not want to admit it, but you feel happy. You don’t usually say a lot of nice things and don’t act very smart most the time, but during crucial moments, you never hesitate to do the right thing, which shows that you have been instilled with the right values. You always act awkward when you’re obviously happy about something, but still refuse to admit it. That’s really adorable.”

As she said this, Lin Chu could not help but pinch Yan Zhiqing on her little face.

This was something Lin Chu had always done to Mo Jinxi and the other children. It could be because Yan Zhiqing acted younger than her actual age which made Lin Chu treat her like a little child, causing her to instinctively pinch her face.

However, things got a little awkward after the pinch. Lin Chu quickly let go of Yan Zhiqing’s face, worried that she would fly into a rage over it.

Yan Zhiqing’s lips twitched. Even though Lin Chu sounded like she was praising her, why was she was not happy about it?

She lowered her head as she gently blushed but did not get angry. She quietly said, “But some people don’t feel the same way. You’re my family, so you know me well because you are familiar with me. Those who don’t know me well think that I have a rotten personality, and that I am someone who has a bad temper and is stubborn. They think that I’m incapable and am stupid, that I am blunt and never give face to others. Overall, I’m just not a very nice person to them.”

Lin Chu had not expected Yan Zhiqing to understand all this.

Lin Chu smiled. “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with you being this way since I think it’s easier to get along with somebody of your personality anyway. Of course, you’ll be more suited to befriend those who are already familiar with your character. They may not like your temperament, but at least they won’t hate you because of it. Those who get to know you by spending time with you will eventually see that you’re an adorable person.”

The more Lin Chu spoke, the redder Yan Zhiqing’s face became. She was embarrassed by all the praise.

“Besides, compared to some people who are always harbouring hidden intentions, I would be more willing to spend time with someone like you. This is because you are simple, direct and will always express what you like and dislike. You are a much better person compared to those who think themselves so smart that they’re constantly manipulating others. It doesn’t matter if it’s making friends, or getting into a relationship, integrity is the most important thing, isn’t it? I don’t need to give myself a headache trying to guess what you are really thinking about, and I don’t need to worry about you backstabbing me when I’m not paying attention. What’s important is that we are happy being friends with each other. After all, who would want to spend all their scheming against their friends? You have your own set of flaws, but you also have a strong set of principles, meaning you don’t hesitate when it comes to deciding what is right or wrong.”
