"You're okay? she asked after seeing that she wasn't in a good mood. "Yes, I'm okay," she answered. "Okay. The Young Master is joining us for dinner once again," said Yin Chen. "Oh, alright I will join shortly," said Li Fei as she opened her closet.
At the table, Jin Liwei realized that Li Fei's mind was elsewhere. She hadn't eaten much and was simply playing with the food. Was she perhaps suffocated staying at his house?
When they got done with dinner, the maids cleared the table and as she was leaving, he said," How is the wound?" "It's healing. Thanks for asking," she said. "Good.Take care," he said before leaving. Exchanging a few words with him after a stressful day was so relieving to her. However small they were.
....
Liling was chatting with Jing Yue when he asked,' You seem so lost nowadays. Anything wrong?' 'Yes. My bestfriend seems distant,' she sent. 'How?' he asked.
'As if she's avoiding me. She doesn't reply to my calls or texts,' she sent. 'It might be probably because she's busy,' she read. 'I don't think so. She clearly avoids me,' she wrote. 'She might be stressed. Dealing with Jin Liwei is not as easy,' he sent. 'You think so?' she asked. 'Yeah. You shouldn't worry,' he sent.
The next therefore in the evening, Liling left work early and stood outside Jin Corps waiting for Li Fei to come out. Not long, Li Fei came out and the moment she saw her, she changed the path but Liling had already seen her. "You're going to tell me what I did to you, Li Fei," she said the moment she caught up with her.
"Why do you think you've done something to me? Are you perhaps guilty about something?" she asked.
"I have every reason to be. You're clearly avoiding me. Tell me," she demanded. "It's nothing Liling. Unless if you want to confess something," she said. "Confess? Oh, wait, are you talking about Jing Yue and I? I was going to tell you last time but you seemed distant," she said. "What about you and Jing Yue?" she asked. "Jing Yue and I are.... he's my trial boyfriend," she said. "Trial boyfriend?" asked Li Fei confused. "Yes. He said he likes me and right now we are trying to see whether he's worthy or not. Do you think I made a mistake believing him?" she asked.
"All I can say is that I'm happy for you. I have to head back home," she said.
"Wait, FeiFei. Is there anything else I did?" she asked confused. Li Fei looked at her before saying," You betrayed me." "How?" "You told Caihong about the abortion and God knows who else you told," she said. "Me?! I will never do that Li Fei! Where did you get that from?" she asked. "You're so good with pretending," she said leaving her behind.
She caught up to her and blocked her way looking at her with tears in her eyes.
"I swear on my dead parents Li Fei. I will never do anything like that," she said her voice choking. Li Fei then understood that she was telling the truth. "How did he find out then?" asked Li Fei confused. "Who? Jin Liwei found out?" Liling exclaimed. "No. Caihong found out and he's threatening me," she said.
"How did he find out? And wait, he's threatening you?" she couldn't believe it. "It's a long story," she said. "I'm willing to listen," Liling said.
They went to the nearby cafeteria and Li Fei told her everything. "I'm so sorry for doubting you Liling. I was confused because it was only the two of us who knew about it. The third one is Yin Chen but she has no connection with him. I'm really sorry," she said. "I can't blame you for thinking that way but at least next time a misunderstanding happens, let's talk things out," she said and Li Fei nodded. "I can't believe Caihong could do something like that. He's such a jerk. What are we going to do now?" "I don't know. If I don't do as he asks then he will tell Mr Jin Liwei," she said covering her face with her hands. "I honestly don't think that Mr Jin Liwei will make your parents pay for what you did because he gave you his word and he doesn't look like someone who can go back on his word. The most he might do is tell you to leave his house and company which is fine," she said. Li Fei couldn't tell whether it was fine or not. "Or you don't want to leave his house?" Liling asked after noticing the distressed look on her face. "I-I don't know," she could only say. "You don't know? I thought you had to be happy. Li Fei, do you like that man?" she couldn't help but ask especially when she narrated how he helped her with her wound. "I honestly don't know Liling," she said. "Now I know. I think you like that man. When did it happen?" she asked. "I have no idea. Do you think I'm a fool?" Li Fei couldn't help but ask. "Of course not. It's normal since you're close to him at the moment and you even stay at his house. But I think it's dangerous because he might not return your feelings and you end up being hurt," she said. "What do you think I should do then?" "I'm sure that when you go far away from him, those feelings will slowly fade away with time." She only hoped so.
...
A week later, Liu Han found out the owner of the Villa where Li Fei lived and she was shocked to wits. Li Fei stays with Jin Liwei!!
Jin Liwei the sexy widower and business tycoon? How did she do that? Could it be that...no, it couldn't be. Jin Liwei couldn't be the father of the baby she aborted. She wouldn't dare if it was his because it was the dream of almost every woman in China. To bear his child and Li Fei wasn't a fool not to know that.
