Do you think this girl likes me or is just friendly?

So I really like the girl who is trying to hook me up with her friend instead lmao.... But she randomly msged me saying I should chill with her friend Ashley, to meet new people. So I quickly replied saying, "haha for a hook up?, you're acting like I'm desperate" and she said "no just as friends" Is she doing this for her friend or she just to hang with me because she likes me
