Soon they arrived at the KTV private room.
Everyone turned their heads towards the door. Its been a long time since Qin Yuheng had appeared in their friends' gathering.
Qin Yuheng entered the room with Shen Ning, led her towards the sofa. Everyone present was surprised. They didn't thought that Qin Yuheng would bring his wife along with him.
"En? Sister-in-law?"
" Yes. " Qin Yuheng nodded his head.
" Hi, I'm Shen Ning. " Shen Ning introduced her name.
"Hi, sister-in-law!" This time five of people voice ecoed the room.
" Hi, sister-in-law. I'm Fu Sinan. I and Yuheng are friends since primary school."
"Sister-in-law, I'm Leng Jing, I and Linna are in army."
" You are in army?!" Instantly her interest piqued in. Although she is slacking off in her studies recently but her interest for joining army is true since the day she decided on it.
" Yeah. Sister-in-law wants to join military too?" Linna was surprised that she wanted to join military because if she joins army then what about her second brother?
Their friends circle knew that after Qin family's eldest son's death in a dangerous mission how much Qin Yuheng dislike this profession. When she and Leng Jing wanted to join he didn't want them to go to army because he was afraid of losing his dear ones. He even stopped talking to them for almost three months until before the day of her and Leng Jing's joining army.
For a moment no one spoke.
" No.." Suddenly Shen Ning's phone rang. It was Father Shen. " I will pick up the call. "
" Go ahead, sister-in-law. " Linna waved her hand to ease the atmosphere.
After ending the call, Shen Ning returned to her sit.
Fu Sinan immediately changed the topic. " Ok, sister-in-law, do you know how to play mahjong?"
"Huh? No... I will sit aside." Well she never played mahjong.
After they had dinner together, Qin Yuheng and Shen Ning took their departure.
...
Qin Yuheng asked her after hesitating. " You never mentioned you wanted to join military."
" Because I am now studying for another profession. I thought it unnecessary to say so"
" Then... Why did you change it?" According to his investigation, her parents wanted her to be a doctor but she wanted to join army. So it's unlike her to listen to others when she doesn't like it.
" Because I won't be able to be qualified in this lifetime. It doesn't matter anymore." She closed her eyes to take a nap.
Clearly she doesn't want to talk about this matter.
They went back to their room after returning home.
The next day...
When the the afternoon class was over, Shen Ning was heading towards the home.
I've spent all of the love I saved
We were always a losing game
Small-town boy in a big arcade
I got addicted to a losing game
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
All I know, all I know
Loving you is a losing game
" Hello, Xie Xie." The person who called her was friend , Xu Xie.
" Ning, I am sorry I didn't know so many things happened to you." She felt ashamed whenever she thought about it. She and Shen Ning were friends since kindergarten yet she didn't know that her friend got into an accident, forced to marry someone against her will, someone she didn't love...
Shen Ning was stunned. " It's ok."
"Then... Your husband... is he good to you?"
Thinking of Qin Yuheng, a smile appeared in her lips. " Yes. Very good."
"That's good then."
At this time, she already in her room. She didn't realise that someone standing in the balcony.
According to the information she got from Shen Qiao, Shen Ning didn't like the man she married but now her reply... and her voice sounds so sweet.
" Have you fallen in love with him?" It's not impossible.
Qin Yuheng wanted to call her but he stopped after hearing the question. He was also curious about this matter.
When Shen Ning heard this, she was stunned. She never thought of this question. "I... don't know."
" Think about this. If he is good to you, it's not bad for you to fall for him. Don't stick to past. You should move on." She knew her friend's unrequited yet silent love story.
