Chapter 136: Our Love disappeared the moment you agreed to marry him!

136 Our Love disappeared the moment you agreed to marry him!

Three hours later...

Xin Yong and Jin Yue had just bade the last guest goodbye. Xin Yong was already worn out. Her legs ached since she's been standing on heels for a long period of time.

Turning around, she could spot Liling and Liu Wei still sitting complacently on their seat, chatting about God-knows-what .

"Liling, this was quite unfair! Where is the BFF love we've been confessing all these years!"

Xin Yong had already appeared in front of the two persons who were chatting away. She couldn't believe her best friend didn't even help her with anything!

She had been the one sending off the guests and her back ached already!

Just as she said that, Liling could spot Jin Yue walking towards them.

"Ah my dearest best friend, our BFF love disappeared the moment you agreed to marry him. He's your best friend now, so don't come complaining to me about not being there for you, you have someone now!"

Liling replied almost laughing. She could virtually see Xin Yong getting mad at her.

"We are not married... Yet! How can you say that? Liu Wei, is this what you've been teaching my friend?, how to abandon her friends in time of need? "

Xin Yong feigned annoyance as she turned to ask Liu Wei. At that moment, she felt someone's hand hold her waist and drew her closer. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks, though she managed to restrain herself from looking at him.

"Your friend has been avoiding me for the past few weeks, I don't see her often, let alone have time to teach her such things. "

Liu Wei blurted out shamelessly.

The other three people were rendered speechless.

Liling's face turned into a bucket of red paint when she heard Liu Wei.

'When did he become so shameless! '

"Ah!, haha, it's not what you think! I've not been avoiding anybody... You know, we've been very busy in X recently, so I have to wake up early and come back late... that's it! "

Liling smiled nervously, trying to explain herself. Xin Yong immediately gave her a doubtful look.

"Liling, I don't remember us being busy that busy, to the extent that you would wake up much early. We're already through with training, and this period has been mostly free, we're just waiting for the release of names... "

"I have special training! "

Liling blurted out immediately. She couldn't understand why her friend would be so slow brained!

She was trying to get out of this hole but Xin Yong BFF was pushing her deeper into it!

"I have... special training...Yes!. Xin Yong, remember I didn't know how to make good lyrics, our tutor arranged for a special training session for me!

"And you didn't tell me about it?"

Xin Yong oblivious of the signals Liling was sending her, asked worriedly. She wondered when her friend started keeping secrets from her.

Seeing that, he quickly tried to save her from Xin Yong's gruesome questioning.

"Alright, sweet, aren't you famished, let's go get something to eat. Liling you're hungry right? "

Liling hadn't taken anything. She hated eating in public places, but most importantly, she needed that saving. Quickly, she nodded and stood up from the seat immediately.

"Liu Wei, aren't you coming?"

Liu Wei would have preferred to eat at home, but since Liling was going, he had no choice. He wasn't about to leave her with Jin Yue who had his love to take care of.

Standing up, the four of them made their way to a large and tastefully decorated private room.

A table beautifully decorated was waiting, the only thing absent on that table was the food.

Liu Wei took a seat closest to the windows. Liling sat opposite him. Jin Yue and Xin Yong sat together on the farthest end of the table.

As soon as they were settled, an waiter came in with the menu. He greeted them properly and offered each one of them a menu.

At this point, Liling remembered her encounter with the simmering silkworm pupae and couldn't help but laugh.

She instinctively looked at Liu Wei who had an undetectable smile on his lips.
