CHAPTER 344
’Fen Fen, I am sorry.’ Li Jing apologized within and waited for the phone to ring.
For some reason, she stopped breathing and waited for her friend to pick the call. The moment she heard Yin Lifen’s voice, her breathing returned and she smiled at no one in particular.
"Fen Fen."
"I do not want to talk to you, Li Jing." Yin Lifen replied sternly.
Li Jing had been such a response from her friend but even after hearing it, she still hurt by the words said to her. "I am sorry."
"Seriously? Do you even consider me a friend at all?" She could tell from the tone of her friend that she was really upset.
But even though Yin Lifen was angry, it wouldn’t change what has been done. All Li Jing could do now was to apologize to her friend. "I am so sorry Fen Fen."
"Kindly explain to me why it never occurred told you to inform your friend that you were getting married?"
"It..." Li Jing took in a deep breath and smiled. "I... It was impromptu and the situation called for it."
"What situation? Besides, there was no one there to witness your wedding. What kind of low-key wedding is that, Li Jing? You and Ye Cheng deserve so much happiness but why chose such a thing or are you too scared of other people that you hid your wedding?"
"I am not scared of anyone, Yin Lifen."
"Then tell me why you would do such a thing?"
"It is complicated, Fen Fen."
"Too complicated to tell even me your best friend? Li Jing, what happened to you?"
"Nothing happened to me but all I can say is that you should trust me. Trust me on this and on my decision."
"I do trust you. At least you married a man that you loved. I am happy for you but I am sad that you couldn’t even inform me. If I did something wrong to you, Li Jing, please tell me and I would apologize and make amends."
"Yin Lifen, you did nothing wrong."
"I doubt that, Li Jing. Speak freely with me, please." Yin Lifen continued to persuade her. She knew very well that something was wrong and bothering Li Jing if not she would have let her know.
She did not know what it was but either way, as a concerned friend she felt that it was her duty to check in on her.
Seeing the way things were going, she decided to tell Yin Lifen the truth and prevent her friend from actually worrying too much.
"Fine. Let us meet at Crap’s Royals by 10:00 am. I would explain things to you then."
"Fine. I would be there."
"Okay. Just keep an open mind and worry less, Yin Lifen," Liu Jing admonished her.
"I would try."
She ended the call and checked a few other messages, some were congratulatory, and amongst all those messages, three attracted her attention the most.
One was from her grandfather, her auntie, Mrs. Lin Huilang and the last were from Tang Zixin.
Her eyes widened when she saw Tang Zixin’s message. It looked as though he was sad even though he meant her well.
’Li Jing, wow. I was surprised to see the post of your wedding to Ye Cheng. I wished to have been there but I guess it wasn’t as important to be informed. Happy married life nonetheless.’
Li Jing felt her eyes sting as tears threatened to break free from their sockets. He and Lifwen were the last persons she had wanted to think that way.
They meant a lot to her but the whole thing, she did not have time to ponder on it as it was the quickest situation to her problem as at then and she...
Shaking her head and pushing the tears back in, Li Jing placed a call to him first. All she was concerned with doing was informing both of them about the truth.
The phone rang and rang but Tang Zixin did not answer it. She tried a second time but got the same result.
At first, she felt dejected that he refused to answer her call and what happened with Ye Cheng a day to valentine’s day came playing back in her head.
She felt bad with all that was going on. Really was this just how her life would be?
Taking her fate as it was, Li Jing stood up from bed and went to get prepared for the day.
By the time she got down, she was informed that Ye Cheng had gone to work very early.
"Oh, thank you. I would be on my way then."
"Young mistress," the maid called out to her.
She stopped in her tracks and looked at the young girl. "Yes?"
"Ma’am, you haven’t had your breakfast."
"Oh, I’m not hungry. Do have a wonderful day."
With that, she turned on her heels and headed out the door to start a fresh new day as a married woman.

Meanwhile, Lin Chun and Ding Jiaying found out about the wedding as well and Ding Jiaying’s jealousy started to eat her up as she spoke with her daughter.
"How can that wench get the opportunity of getting married to the richest bachelor in the country?" She lamented out loud.
She ignored the fact that her husband could walk in on her anytime soon. She had been too bitter ever since she saw the news and then Li Xiu confirmed that it was true.
"No, that girl cannot have such luck."
"Mother, what can we do to her now? Li Jing is untouchable right now," Li Xiu complained.
"Well even if she is, she would suffer."
"What do you mean by that? Or have you forgotten that her grandfather is one of the wealthiest men in their city with she being the sole heir and now she got married to Ye Cheng, what can be more than that?"
"Hmm, no matter who she is, no one is untouchable. She is still the naïve Li Jing we always knew her to be."
