Tang Li seemed rather a withdrawn person in college.
She had been studying for a year now. She rarely mingled with the other girls from the same hostel. It was clear how their relationships were.
Wu Xuehan was the only one who was willing to talk to her during her second year in college.
Tang Li remembered her past when she stared at Wu Xuehan.
In her former life, she had met Wu Xuehan for the last time during the night when she registered for her marriage with Han Jifeng.
Han Jifeng was twenty-seven years old at that time. He had yet to hold the post as the minister of the Department of Justice.
They had a simple wedding. Their parents did not meet each other to talk about it. They did not have a wedding ceremony. They did not even have wedding photoshoots. The wedding rings were bought in a rush too.
Qin Ruyue's health deteriorated when her husband committed suicide after his company went bankrupt. Han Jifeng started working soon after he graduated from school. Qin Feiyue became so sick that she could not get out of bed.
Tang Li always went to take care of Qin Yueru when she knew of the condition of the Han family.
She bumped into Han Jifeng one day when he had gone home earlier than usual.
She was still in the third year of college and it was summertime. Qin Feiyue fainted when she was home alone. She was diagnosed with diabetes at the hospital.
That was when Han Jifeng proposed to her.
She was the one who had pushed herself into that pit of fire because of her love for him.
Tang Li could think of no other word to describe herself except the word 'stupid' when she reminisced her past.
She left school during the last year of her college just because she wanted to take good care of Qin Yueru. She had even given her work up in the end. Then, she had lost herself in that fake marriage.
Tang Li could not even remember when Wu Xuehan had left her side when she came to congratulate her on her marriage that night.
It was because she was busy taking care of her mother-in-law who was having a leg cramp.
Her contact with Wu Xuehan decreased since that day.
Tang Li could only see her in TV dramas and read about her in the news when Wu Xuehan had become a star in the entertainment world.
It was the third year of her marriage. Wu Xuehan had become a famous star who was awarded the golden academy award then. But, she had died from drug abuse and promiscuity. That news was quite shocking to the people in Nation S. Her golden academy award was revoked after her death. There were only a few reporters who went to her funeral. Not even a friend from the entertainment world came to bid her goodbye. It was indeed a cold world.
After that, Tang Li found a case file in the study during the time she was locked up by Han Jifeng in their house.
It was Wu Xuehan's case.
Nobody knew the entire truth. Wu Xuehan had a boyfriend when she was alive. Her boyfriend was one of the board members of Tian Yi Enterprise, Ou Yanghua.
Wu Xuehan was on her way to meet Ou Yanghua that night when the accident happened.
Ou Yanghua addressed Ou Yangqian as his aunt.
Wu Xuehan's parents went to the police station to report the case. They wanted to report that Ou Yanghua was the one who had framed their daughter. But, the Wu family had neither power nor connections. That case was forced to be closed.
Tang Li soon realized the reason why Han Jifeng had helped the Ou Yang family when she found out that Han Jifeng was in love with Li Shengxia.
There was no one else in the hostel now.
Tang Li went over to her bed. Wu Xuehan wanted to leave at first. But, she followed closely behind Tang Li with her little tail wagging behind her like an obedient pet dog.
After a while, Wu Xuehan asked her suddenly, "Tang Li, have you heard about the Smurfs?"
Tang Li turned around and looked at her doubtfully.
"Take a seat first." Wu Xuehan pushed down on Tang Li's shoulders. Tang Li sat down on the bed.
Tang Li looked at Wu Xuehan as she put the books that she was holding in her hands just now on the table. Then, she turned her back to Tang Li mischievously. She took out her phone from her pocket and tapped on her phone quickly.
The soft and happy melody of a children song was heard in the hostel.
Tang Li could not help but laugh happily when she realized that Wu Xuehan was trying to cheer her up.
