CHAPTER 407

​​

"Did he say something?"

Yin Lifen remained quiet for some time before she shook her head as though her friend could see her.

"Sigh, Fen Fen, speak to me."

"Well I called on the weekend and he picked stating you were sleeping."

"Okay…"

"Well, I was not just expecting him to call and all and then, I said he should take care of you, considering you guys are still not that cool. How has it been since by the way? Have you been able to figure out why he is grumpy?"

"Oh… you didn't know?" Li Jing asked feeling surprised.

"Know what Li Jing?"

It was then it dawned on her that since her husband and she had that conversation, she hadn't spoken to her friend since.

So Yin Lifen was actually left in the dark about the whole thing and still thought they were fighting.

"I am sorry dear. I just didn't say but Ye Cheng and I have settled."

"WHOA! Li Jing!!" She screamed her name at the top of her lungs almost blocking the ears of her friend.

"Fen Fen… Not too loud."

"OMG! Li Jing, I am so happy for you. Oh my God. Your marriage. Oh boy!" She could not curtail her joy and screamed again.

She really was glad for her friend. Finally, the love she had wished for was back to her and no longer was there any misunderstanding between them.

She wasn't concerned about what happened or how, she was just overly joyed for her friend.

"I am happy for you babe. I am so glad. You do not know how well I have wished that you find your love back. Li Jing we really need to celebrate this."

"I guess so. Hehehe. I am happy too. And he is so loveable. Oh my God, why didn't I reach out to him since, rather than being angry? I just wasted precious time."

"Sigh! I am glad someone noticed how stubborn she was. Anyways, the past is in the past baby girl. This is the present. Live life to the fullest and make each day and hour count. Make him also regret not spending much time with you before, love him endlessly. Live each day, like it is your last, baby girl," Yin Lifen advised.

"I will girlfriend. Thank you."

"Anytime."

"So, how about you and Aiden?"

"Oh… umm a working progress."

"Oh, you have got to spill Fen Fen, I just did mine."

"I will but not over the phone. When are we going to hang out again?'

"Umm, how about tomorrow?"

"Deal then. Tomorrow it is."

***

It had been a while since Li Jing laid eyes on Kim Fan and it wasn't like she was hoping to anymore but then…

Besides, she had expected her grandfather to try something out since but ever since he left, she had not gotten into any trouble.

If only she knew that it was too early to be jubilating.

Just as she had agreed on with Ye Cheng, she made her way to her own company as usual and what or whom she saw there, left her completely speechless.

She got to her personal assistant's desk only for her to be informed of a guest she did not have an appointment with.

"Good morning ma. Welcome."

"Thanks, Wen Su. Has any of my guests come today?"

"Not yet ma. All those scheduled for today would start arriving from 12 noon."

"Great then, I still have like an hour to get things prepared. Thanks."

"Ma, please wait." Wen Su hurriedly said.

"Yes?"

"There is one other guest though. He is not on your schedule for today."

"So…" she paused with her eyes dimmed. "Why is he here and just who is he?"

"I'm sorry ma, but he claims to be a close friend of yours." Hearing that, Li Jing's mind had already gone to Tang Zixin. Instantly her brows relaxed and she looked like she was eager to hear or see who it was.

Well, so she looked until…

"His name is… Kim Fan."

DOOM! GBOOM!

GBAGHANNN!!

It felt like Li Jing's ears would suddenly burst just from how loudly her heart thudded in her chest. She was still trying to process it all in her head when she heard a footstep behind her.

Even though her mind screamed in her head for her not to, she still did. Slowly, Li Jing took a turn to look behind her and when she did, closing and opening her eyes, she came face to face with the face she did not intend on seeing anytime soon at least.

"Hello, Li Jing."

"Kim Fan."

"Yeah, that's me. Miss me?" His lips parted at the corner, revealing his nice set of teeth that blew the mind of his admirers away.

Unfortunately for him, Li Jing was in love with someone else and that did not affect her but Wen Su on the other hand, she felt like she was in heaven just watching him smile like that.

'If just a half-smile like this could make my heart flutter, I wonder just how his full smile would destroy me?' Wen Su thought as she dreamingly watched the friends.

'It is a good thing my boss is already married to another. I can probably have a go at him because if she wasn't, then I would not stand a chance. Oh my, why is life so unfair? He got everything, the looks, the money, the perfect husband and a lovely family background.' Wen Su thought to herself again.

SIGH!

One thing people never learn, you do not know where the shoes bite and hurt unlike the one wearing it. While she wished for all Li Jing had, she failed to know that not all that glitters was gold and uneasy lies the head that wears the crown.

Even the rich also cry.
