Chapter 166: Your Best Friend Just Confessed to Your Man (Part one)

On the next day, Shen Yao woke up a bit dizzy and she saw Ran Jing sleeping beside her. She just looked right at the ceiling. Ran Jing felt that Shen Yao woke up so she asked, “You thirsty?”

Shen Yao: “Why do you ask?”

Ran Jing said teasingly, “Because you were talking a crap ton yesterday and the bar owner was so close to kicking us out. Anyway, the story of a beautiful heiress threatening to rape a man already got spread in the local area, and now you made Xu Cheng quite troubled.”

Shen Yao’s face darkened. Then, she snorted, “Troubled by what? Can’t he just think of it as me being drunk?”

Ran Jing looked towards her with a cheeky smile and asked, “But you weren’t really, right? I know.”

Shen Yao also looked back at her and replied, “I was being so direct already yet he could still remain so indifferent. I really don’t know what to say anymore. Ran Jing, you tell me, am I not pretty enough or something?”

Ran Jing: “No, you are pretty everywhere.”

Shen Yao: “Then I’m just so confused, he didn’t even want to flirt with me one bit. I’m clearly not his cup of tea.”

Ran Jing: “So what? Were you serious?”

Shen Yao: “What serious?”

Ran Jing: “Before, we were betting that you could get him to fall in love with you and then you would dump him. Say, is it possible that he found out about our bet?”

Shen Yao stared into her eyes. “Even you think that I’m pursuing him just to win our bet?”

Ran Jing: “I know that’s not the case, that’s why I’m scared that you actually fell in love with him. I think Xu Cheng’s acting this way because he already has someone in his heart.”

Shen Yao lowered her face and bitterly smiled. “Of course I know that too. Last time when I asked him, he said that he has someone he likes already. But, I thought that as long as they aren’t together, my excellence could win him over.”

Speaking of this, Shen Yao became more depressed. She let out a sigh and continued, “There has been a time where I wanted to put this feeling out, yet the result was actually the opposite. The more I got to know him, the more I feel that he’s amazing. He’s calm and confident, as if everything is always going according to his plan. That sense of safety and security felt really nice, and the more he showed that he wasn’t into me, the harder I want to try to prove myself, and the deeper I think. And now, I’m trapped, I just want to see him everyday and whenever I think about possibly spending the next day together, I would feel really happy and hope tomorrow would come faster, even thinking that the nights were too long.”

Ran Jing jokingly said, “So that’s the biggest reason you are dragging out your vacation days and not going back to work?”

Shen Yao awkwardly said, “Yeah, I don’t know why I was so impulsive last night, but now that he knows how I feel, I can tell from his reaction that maybe he really isn’t into me. Oh well, some things just can’t be forced. Now that I told him everything, it will be awkward to see each other again. But, I don’t regret letting him know how I feel. My vacation days were over a long time ago, it’s time for me to leave too.”

Ran Jing was a bit surprised. “Where to?”

Shen Yao pretended to be indifferent as she lightly laughed and said, “Of course I’m going to work. I will be flying all over the place again, and I will just treat it as a vacation to relax. Hopefully when I get back, we can all go back to being friends.”

Then, Shen Yao walked out of his room. Seeing her packing again, Shen Wansan immediately got nervous and frowned as he came over. “Yaoyao, what happened? Why are you moving out all of a sudden? Are you not feeling comfortable at home? Who made you unhappy this time?”

Shen Yao said with a blank expression, “I’m going to work, and I won’t be coming back often.”

Shen Wansan: “What work? Are you short on money? Daddy can just give you more.”

Shen Yao: “That’s yours, not mine.”

Shen Wansan: “Isn’t what’s mine yours as well?”

Shen Yao looked up at her dad with a serious expression and said, “Dad, you are always wary of who I’m with and who I should make friends with, but do you know that there are also men who just don’t want to be with me? Now, don’t even take away my right to work. If you still want us to get along well, then it’s best for you to respect my decisions.”

Then, she finished packing and left.

In Xu Cheng’s condo, he had been stretching on the balcony after getting up in the morning. Lin Lei walked out as he rubbed his eyes and said, “To be honest, Brother Cheng, you don’t have to give up a girl that likes you for my sister.”

“Isn’t it strange for that to come out from your mouth? I’m your brother-in-law, and you want me to accept other women?” Xu Cheng gave him a look.

“Then why can’t you and my sister just be honest to each other in the first place? *sigh*, how come I can’t meet a girl like this?” Lin Lei sighed and said.

Xu Cheng looked at him from the corner of his eyes. “You still lack women in your life?”

“I don’t lack those that come at me with ulterior motives, but I’ve never actually met one that comes with a perfect package of looks, character, background, intelligence, and so on. The key is, Sister Yao’s the type that was willing to give her heart to you. If she has a motive, then at most her goal was to have your babies. The women that come after me were all too deep, it’s not like I don’t know if they were after me for my money or not,” Lin Lei stretched as well and said.

Xu Cheng didn’t say anything and went back inside, leaving Lin Lei out on the balcony, who dialed his sister’s number.

Lin Chuxue’s assistant was still doing makeup for her, and seeing the call, Lin Chuxue picked up right away. On the other end, Lin Lei directly said, “Sis, your best friend just confessed to your man last night.”

Lin Chuxue fell silent for awhile. And then, she asked, “And then?”

Lin Lei: “Do you want to hear the result of my brother-in-law accepting her or rejecting her? In fact, you are probably very scared that my brother-in-law would feel something for her too, right? Since you are clearly nervous, why not just give each other a chance and admit your feelings? In the past few days, I’ve already understood my brother-in-law from his words. It would be impossible to say that he has no complaints about you keeping the relationship a secret, no ordinary men can tolerate it, especially someone with as strong of a sense of pride as Brother Cheng. To be able to respect your decision to not disclose your identity is one thing, but it is truly a humiliating thing for a guy to accept and do.”

Lin Chuxue sighed on the other end. “Then have you thought about the consequences after we publicize our relationship status?”

Lin Lei: “I know, but why don’t you ask about his opinion? Maybe he’s willing to become the enemy of the whole world just for you? Since coming to Huaxia and seeing what he accomplished at the police force, I don’t think he’s still the Xu Cheng we knew before. He became a lot stronger.”

Lin Chuxue didn’t say anything.

Lin Lei pondered for awhile, and then he sighed and continued, “Sis, last night when a girl as pretty as you crazily confessed her love to my brother-in-law, any other men would not hesitate for a second if they were in Brother Cheng’s shoes. But, Brother Cheng rejected her! I still remember Sister Yao telling Brother Cheng to bring his wife out to show her, and when I saw that helpless expression on my brother-in-law’s face, I really wanted to pull both of you out to rightfully stand by each other and tell the world that you two are married!”
