I Just Wanted To See Your Attitude

Sophia was a bit angry and said weakly: "Belt. You want to eat it?"

"Uh..." Ethan was awkward.

Sophia didn't want to argue with her brother. Looking at the backpack behind him: "Did you exchange for food?"

Ethan nodded: "Exchanged for 2 cans of canned fish." Actually, there were 4 in total, but he hid the other two, planning to keep them for himself.

Sophia said disappointedly: "A gold ring can only exchange for 2 cans now?"

Ethan said evasively: "Food is getting scarce, it's good enough to get this. Sis, this approach of ours isn't working. Is there any news from Jake?"

Sophia said in despair: "He blacklisted me. What can I do?"

Ethan was furious: "How can this guy be so stingy! What's wrong with asking him for some food!"

The two shared a can of canned fish. Her stomach felt much better. Having regained some stamina, they tried to find a way. Ethan offered an idea:

"Sis, you should add him first. Men care most about face. Jake must be finding it hard to save face. You lower your stance and cry a bit more, he definitely won't be able to resist that!"

Sophia was very unwilling to humble herself to Jake. But seeing she was about to starve to death, she could only agree. Sophia applied to add Jake as a friend again. Originally, she didn't have much hope. Who knew he would actually accept it instantly!

Sophia was overjoyed with surprise: "He accepted it!"

Ethan said happily: "See, I told you so. Men, you know. Quick, win him over!"

Sophia regained her confidence: "Don't worry, I'm very confident in dealing with Jake." She thought for a moment, then made a video call to Jake. Soon, the call connected. Jake's face appeared on the screen. Beside him were two women who were diligently serving him food.

Sophia saw the radiant Jake and instantly felt anger surge. While I'm starving here, you're enjoying delicious food, and you're even playing with women! And there are two of them! Jake looked at the woman on the video call, disheveled and dirty, listless. Where was a trace of her former pride? I was actually tricked by this trashy person for so many years!

Jake was in a great mood, said with a smile: "Oh, dieting?"

Diet my ass! Sophia was so angry she almost couldn't breathe, opened her eyes wide in anger and shouted: "Jake!"

Jake nudged Olivia with his chin. Olivia understood, proactively picked up a piece of steak and put it into Jake's mouth. Her body pressed tightly against him. Jake ate, grease dripping from his mouth, stroking Olivia's head like he was petting a kitten, then said: "Why are you calling me?"

Sophia watched, drooling. Her stomach started cramping again. I'm eating a belt, but Jake is eating steak! Ethan was anxious and winked at her from the corner. Sophia quickly said:

"Jake, you've disappointed me so much! You're actually this kind of man!"

Jake took a satisfying sip of ice-cold cola, smiling as he teased her: "I disappointed you? What right do you have to say something like that to me? Alright, we've already broken up, okay?"

Sophia started arguing unreasonably: "You don't understand my intentions at all. We've been together for so many years, and you can't even buy a house! You didn't try hard enough. I broke up with you just to motivate you."

Jake said casually: "Lie, keep lying."

Michelle picked up a piece of braised pork, brought it to Jake's mouth, and said sweetly: "Jake, is it good?"

Jake chewed heartily: "Good, good."

Bitch! Sophia's eyes were spitting fire. She swallowed hard and said: "Jake, breaking up is my fault, but don't you have any mistakes either! Other people's boyfriends are trying hard, what are you doing? Working at a convenience store, driving for ride-sharing. What kind of job is that? What about our future children? I don't want our children to lose at the starting line!"

"Well now, this is a baby warning." Jake said with a smile: "Don't bring up kids. Also, break up is break up. What's the meaning of you taking all the money from my bank account?"

Before breaking up, Sophia transferred the tens of thousands he had saved, the day before. Jake was very angry. This was his hard-earned money. As soon as money was mentioned, Sophia was somewhat speechless, not knowing how to reply. How did he change! She became anxious. Jake never used to say such cutting words before.

"I don't lack money. I just wanted to see your attitude! You've disappointed me too much."

"Attitude?" Jake snorted with laughter: "Alright, I'll give you a chance."

Has he changed his mind? Sure enough, he still can't let go of me. Sophia was surprised and delighted: "I'll definitely be good to you. Let's get back together!"

Sophia was smug in her heart. Jake, you really are just a simp. I can call you, you come; wave, you leave. She started planning in her heart how, after getting to Jake's place, she would drive the two women away and get full control of all the food. Ethan's face also showed happiness.

Jake said with a smile: "Don't worry, I also want to see your attitude. Now, kneel for me."

Sophia paused, and said angrily: "Jake! You're insulting my dignity!"

Ethan became anxious. Seeing the food they were about to get slip away, he said urgently in a low voice: "Sis, handle him!"

Sophia hesitated. Compared to dignity, hunger scared her more. If only she and Jake were there, she might have agreed. But now there are also two women, and her own brother Ethan. How could she possibly agree to this? Unfortunately, she didn't have a chance to hesitate.

"You still talking about dignity?" Jake scoffed, throwing her words right back at her: "I don't want to insult you. I just wanted to see your attitude! Sophia, you've disappointed me too much." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Holy! Crap! Sophia felt incredibly stifled and uncomfortable.

Ethan was so angry his face was distorted, and said furiously: "Sis, you two were together, had such wild times. What's kneeling? What are you pretending for here!"

Sophia's chest tightened, and she looked at her own brother in disbelief: "Ethan, how can you talk to me like that? And, how could Jake and I be so wild!"

Ethan said angrily: "Sis, what's kneeling? It's just something for couples to do for fun!"

"Now look, we still have to starve!"

Sophia's fingers clenched white, and she argued: "Can't you see? He's deliberately insulting me!"

"Being insulted is better than starving to death!" Ethan threw down a sentence and angrily stormed into another room.

Clang. The apartment door closed.

Sophia was silent. She already regretted it a little. Maybe I really should have knelt down just now...

Sophia is a very realistic woman. She dated Jake in university just because he was handsome and made her look good at university. After graduating, Jake was just a bottom-tier loser, completely useless. So when she got a government job, she dumped Jake. Now, the times have changed again. Jake holds large amounts of food; he's a big shot in this era!

Kneeling down to him... it probably wouldn't be a big deal...

Sophia looked at Jake's account, unable to decide for a long time. She had just eaten half a can of canned fish. She wasn't particularly hungry yet. She could still hold out. Wait and see.

...

2 PM.

It was time for the trade.

Chris went out with Sam and Jenny. The red fog blocked their vision. The three stayed close together, cautiously moving forward by touching the wall. Chris thought silently: Hoping that kid Room and board included would come to the trading market...
