Lan Qianyu gave them a lecture as she laid on the bed. The two of them were working very hard to clean up.
Lei Lie brought a glass of warm milk over and said, “Drink this first, Qianyu. The noodles will be ready soon.”
“Thank you.” Lan Qianyu was seldom this polite to Lei Lie. He alway followed her around like a puppy and she found him to be quite annoying. However, now she finally understood his importance when he stepped up to handle matters at the crucial moments.
Misfortune tests the sincerity of friends. One could truly see a person’s true nature at the crucial moment…
Lan Qianyu couldn’t help but think about Xiao Qi. She was very disappointed. Her attention was attracted by Ye Yan when Xiao Qi called on her way home. When she regained her wits and prepared to take the call, it was already disconnected. Xiao Qi sent a message to apologize and asked for her whereabouts.
She didn’t reply. Apart from this rental home, where could she go?
He had alway been considerate, gentle and caring when it came to her, but he really disappointed her this time. She had once thought that he was caught up with his family business, that was why he had neglected her. However, he should have at least called right? She was lying in the hospital for days and he had neither called nor messaged her.
She couldn’t believe that he was the boyfriend she had loved for three years and about to get married to in ten days time.
…
“Knock, knock!” A rapid knocking on the door interrupted Lan Qianyu’s thoughts. Xiao Qi’s anxious shouts could be heard, “Qianyu, Qianyu, it’s me. Open the door.”
Qiao Qing went to open the door angrily and railed at him.
Shen Xin was alway more rational so she didn’t scold him. But she gave him a nasty look and deliberately dirtied his leather shoes with a mop.
Xiao Qi apologized humbly and coaxed Qiao Qing, this firecracker, for a while before she was appeased. Qiao Qing put her hands at her waist and glared at him, “I’m giving you a chance to explain. Go.”
“Thank you, thank you!” Xiao Qi behaved as if he had just received a pardon and quickly walked toward Lan Qianyu’s room.
Lei Lie, who was wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen. Xiao Qi was obviously taken aback, but he swiftly greeted him graciously, “You are here too, Lei Lie.”
Xiao Qi knew that Lei Lie had alway liked Lan Qianyu. Although he had never done anything to damage their relationship, he also didn’t care about Xiao Qi’s existence and was too friendly to Lan Qianyu. However, even though Xiao Qi would get a little jealous occasionally, he knew Lan Qianyu wasn’t interested in Lei Lie, so he was able to maintain a cordial relationship with him on the surface.
Lei Lie looked at him meaningfully and said coldly, “You are indeed a busy man. You only appear now?”
Xiao Qi was very embarrassed.
“Are you a man or not?” Lei Lie furrowed his brows and reproached him severely, “Although something like that happened, she was still a victim. How could you run away from your responsibility because of that?”
“Something like that?” Xiao Qi’s facial expression changed instantly.
Lei Lie narrowed his eyes and stared at him suspiciously. Could it be he didn’t know yet?
“That’s right.” Qiao Qing said in a peeve, “She was only molested and not raped. What if she was raped, aren’t you…”
“What? Molested???” Xiao Qi was shocked.
Qiao Qing froze for a moment, blinked and then said haltingly, “You, you still don’t know.”
Xiao Qi had rushed into Lan Qianyu’s room like an arrow and slammed the door shut loudly before she could even finish talking.
“Stupid mouth. I said the wrong things again.” Qiao Qing slapped herself on her lips.
“Do you think that we’ll forget you have a mouth if you don’t use it all the time.” Shen Xin glared at her.
Lei Lie let out two dry coughs, and then sneaked into the kitchen.
