Chapter 214 - Chapter 214 Helping both our friends

"You're right but I'm sorry still. What was he doing there?" asked Liling. "I don't know. I doubt it was because of the new album. Our CEO and him are acquaintances so I guess he was here for business." "Uh, didn't you two interact in any way?" "No, why would we? It were only greetings and i left the party early because I couldn't stand him."

"I understand. Please forgive me," she replied. "You know what Liling? When I saw him, it felt as though all this time, I have been wasting my time. I don't think I will ever be able to get over him." "I get but you know why? It's because you're not moving on. Give yourself another chance to love. Yan Jianyu is a nice guy and he loves you. I think you should give him a chance. Only that way will you be able to move on," advised Liling.

When Jin Liwei reached Shanghai, he called Jing Yue. "Let's meet up," he said the moment he picked up. "Why don't you come at office?" asked Jing Yue. "Alright." Not long after, he was at Jing Conglomerate.

"Where have you been for the whole of yesterday?" asked Jing Yue.

"I saw her," he said. "You saw her?"

"Yes. I was in Shenzhen yesterday," he said.

"Wow, what had you gone to do there?"

"To at least catch a glimpse of her but she saw me." "Did you two talk?" he asked. "Not really but.." "But what?"

"She's so beautiful," he said remembering her in the purple dress. Jing Yue rolled his eyes and said," Will you tell me how you met exactly?" "What you should know is that we met. You know what Jing Yue, after seeing her again, I have decided." He raised his brows in question so he could continue. "I want her back," he stated. He swiveled his seat and said," Isn't it a bit too late for that?" "I know but it's possible." "With all due honesty, I don't think she wants anything to do with you Jin Liwei," he said. "I know but I'm not giving up," he declared. "What's your plan?" he finally asked.

"Jing Yue, I need your help," he said. "How do you want me to help?" he asked and before he could reply, he said," Wait. I'm going to help you on condition that you give me the beach house."

"Oh! Such an opportunist," muttered Jin Liwei. "Well, it's up to you. If you want my help, hand over the beach house."

Jin Liwei took a while to say," Fine." "Now you're talking," said Jing Yue rubbing his hands excitedly and he added," I guess I will be having a holiday with my wife at my new beach house." "We need to act fast," said Jin Liwei.

"I know. So tell me, how do you want me to help?"

...

At night when Jing Yue came back home, he told his wife that they had something important to talk about.

"What is it?" she asked when she entered the bed. Leaning against the headrest, he looked at her and said," Uhm, there's something that you have to know." "What is it?" she asked again. "About Jin Liwei- " "I don't want to know anything about that man," she interrupted before he could go any further. "Don't talk like that. What about Li Fei? Don't you care about her?"

"Of course I do. What do you have to say?"

"Jin Liwei wants help in getting back together with Li Fei," he spoke. "Is he insane- "

"Everything was a lie. Jin Liwei has always loved your friend with all his heart." "You're confusing me right now," she said. "I will tell you. It all happened when..." his voice trailed as he explained everything to her without leaving a single detail.

In the end, she was shocked.

"You mean to say that, Li Fei was imprisoned for no reason?" she asked. "Just like you, yes. She was meant to die that day," he said. "Oh my goodness. Where's that woman? Where's she right now?" she asked. "In Jin Liwei's custody," he said.

"She has to pay for everything," she hissed.

"We will deal with that later Liling. The issue here is helping both our friends. I guess you understand why he did that."

Liling looked at him and said," I'm not going to help him because he hurt her several times. First in prison and now he made her believe that he has never loved her." "I understand and you have to believe me when I say that I think the same way. But in his place, that was what he had to do. You know how Li Fei is. She wouldn't have accepted even if he asked for a little space to process things," he said and she kept quiet at that.

Liling didn't know what to do. On one hand, she was so excited to tell her friend that everything was a lie. That he has always loved her but on the other hand, she didn't want to help that man who put her friend through all that. Especially now when she found out that she was innocent from the beginning.

"For Li Fei's sake, let's help," he persuaded her.

Finally, she took a deep breath and asked, "What should I do? Do you want me to tell her everything?" she asked. "No. It will be him to tell her. You know what you should do, you're coming with us to Beijing," he told her.

...

Throughout the entire week, Li Fei had been thinking about what Liling had told her. It might be possible that she had still failed to get over Jin Liwei because she had not gotten someone else. But at the same time, she thought Jianyu was too good to be used. She was confused on what to do.

When she got back home, as usual, she found flowers at the doorstep and carried them inside.

When she had just finished preparing dinner, Jianyu came over.

"I'm glad you came because I had prepared extra food," she said as she carried it to the table.
