Chapter 969

Qiao Anxia had used Cheng Yang's phone to reply to Lin Wei, so she had specially dolled herself up thinking that it was him . The moment she saw her mistake, her expression turned confused . Even though there wasn't anything between her and Cheng Yang, she started to feel unease as though caught red handed . She gripped onto the strap on her bag, forcing out a smile . "Miss Qiao . "

Qiao Anxia smiled at her warmly before signaling for the waiter to order a cup of coffee . Turning to Lin Wei, she asked, "You like Cheng Yang, don't you?"

Lin Wei started to feel uneasy, assuming that she was trying to assert her authority as the wife .

Qiao Anxia smiled at the waiter when they put the coffee on the table . Reaching for the spoon, she stirred the coffee leisurely before taking a sip . "You don't have to be nervous, I know you like him, that's why I asked you out today . I just wanted to know if you love him?"

"I . . . " Lin Wei glanced at her expression . She didn't seem like she was here to catch a mistress, but she couldn't understand her intentions . After a moment’s hesitation, she remained silent, unable to reply to her question .

Lin Wei hung her head low, biting onto her lip . After struggling for a long while, she apologized softly, "I'm sorry Miss Qiao, I indeed like Cheng Yang but I’ve never had any intention to break up his marriage, I just wanted to be friends with him and see that he's happy… I'm really very sorry for any unease that I may have brought about, I'll avoid him from now on, treating him as a stranger . . . "

"You don't have to," Qiao Anxia interrupted .

Lin Wei lifted her head to look at her questioningly .

Qiao Anxia tightened her grip on the cup . After a long moment of silence, she downed the entire cup . Curling her lips into a bright smile, she said, "I came to find you today to seek your help . "

–

After nearly three hours of conversation, they were finally done .

Qiao Anxia remained calm while Lin Wei was in a daze, unable to process her words .

Qiao Anxia waved for the waiter for another coffee . After downing half a cup, she glanced at Lin Wei, who was regaining her senses . "Miss Lin, I’m sure you understand what I said . Are you agreeable?"

Lin Wei remained silent .

"If you agree, I'll arrange everything else . "

Lin Wei lowered her eyes in contemplation .

"Miss Lin, it's a great opportunity for you, are you sure you don't want it?"

Lin Wei moved her lips, lifting her head to return Qiao Anxia's gaze . She stared for a while before finally nodding . "I'll do it . "

Moisture welled up in Qiao Anxia’s eyes, but she forced a smile on her face . With her whole soul, she replied softly, "Thank you . "
