Chapter 85 - The Closest Person In Her Heart (1)
The three finished their enjoyable meal, ignoring Mo Yuchen's existence in the opposite restaurant. As long as Mo Yuchen didn't come over and cause trouble for them, Su Xiaofei wouldn't waste her time on him anymore.
Xi Qian paid attention to her best friend, still wondering if Su Xiaofei was really over with her infatuation with Mo Yuchen. Although she didn't like to admit it openly, she would rather Su Xiaofei not get involved with another man too soon.
Mo Yuchen surely didn't deserve her best friend. As for Lu Qingfeng, although he was protective of Feifei, Xi Qian was still not confident enough to leave Feifei with him alone. She feared that the obsession Lu Qingfeng had with Su Xiaofei would hurt her friend in the future.
It didn't matter if they were childhood friends, because Xi Qian was certain that Lu Qingfeng doesn't see Feifei as a friend at all ever since she met the little tyrant a few years ago.
Su Xiaofei pulled out her phone after finishing her meal, intending to see how badly Ye Mingyu had messed up her own scheme to humiliate her in front of everyone today.
As expected, Ye Mingyu's audacity to seek her out had cost the young woman her own public reputation. Students kept saying that she was also a fox like her mother and was sent to the academy to harass Su Xiaofei. Some even accusingly said that Ye Xing might be faking her illness to drive a wedge between Su Xiaofei's parents.
Compared to Su Xiaofei, who was a perfect representation of a Bai'fu'mei1, Ye Mingyu was severely lacking not only in elegance, but also in proper etiquette. If Lu Qingfeng didn't notice the glaring red marks on Su Xiaofei's wrist, they would have never guessed that this Ye Mingyu was hiding viciousness behind her angelic face.
"Feifei, what are you looking at?" Xi Qian asked as she picked up the last dumpling on her plate. She noticed that Su Xiaofei was smirking as she scrolled on her phone.
"Someone broadcasted a livestream earlier, guess who the leads are in this latest drama?" Su Xiaofei gave her a knowing look.
Xi Qian gasped at her in disbelief and hurriedly pulled out her phone. While Su Xiaofei was using the latest model released by that popular company named after a fruit, Xi Qian was using a phone that was released five years ago and could barely keep up with the latest phones released these days.
Still, she was able to find the same live stream video that Su Xiaofei had just mentioned. Although it was only a ten-minute clip, it was able to capture the conversation between Su Xiaofei and Ye Mingyu earlier and ended with Su Xiaofei walking away with Lu Qingfeng.
The comments were rude towards Ye Mingyu, but it didn't mean that the other students had already changed their minds about Su Xiaofei. There were still some who thought that she was bullying Ye Mingyu and was purposely putting her in an awkward situation.
"What nonsense are these people talking about? Didn't they see it was Ye Mingyu who came to talk to you first?" Xi Qian was annoyed when she saw the harsh comments about her best friend. She was there as a witness, so she knew it wasn't possible that Su Xiaofei was the one who started the commotion between them.
"Calm down, Qian. No matter what others say about me, you don't need to get riled up. You can't just convince people with words alone." Su Xiaofei closed the livestreaming app, only to find her photos with Lu Qingfeng on the forum of the academy, seeing other students making assumptions about their relationship with each other in the comment section.
"Hey, what's up with these people shipping me with Xiao Feng?" She frowned. "Don't they have anything better to do than gossiping around?"
"Shipping what?" Lu Qingfeng moved to the seat next to Su Xiaofei and looked over her shoulder to see what's on her phone. He wanted to see what caught her attention this time.
"You don't know what a ship is?" Su Xiaofei gave him a questioning look. It's impossible for someone like Lu Qingfeng not to be aware of popular colloquial terms such as 'ship' that people use these days.
"Ah, I know now." Lu Qingfeng pulled away and took his phone to see the photos Su Xiaofei was looking at earlier himself. He didn't think that people would start noticing a possible relationship between the two of them.
Lu Qingfeng laughed when he read a comment about Su Xiaofei raising a possible husband for herself in the future, not knowing that despite his young age, his mental age was that of a man who already lived two lifetimes before.
Scrolling to the various photos of the two of them, a particular photo piqued his interest.
It was a picture of him and Su Xiaofei that was screen grabbed from the livestream video. On it, Su Xiaofei had just seen him and went to greet him with her hands behind her back, smiling sweetly at him. It was as if the world around them had vanished, and they could only see each other.
Lu Qingfeng decided to save this particular photo. This would be his favorite photo of them in the future, next to their wedding photo. Years later, he would look at the same photo and reminisce about the past.
Su Xiaofei placed her phone back in her pocket. She was satisfied with today's outcome and couldn't wait to see how Feng Xue'er would react once she found out that Ye Mingyu had met her fiancé behind her back.
For someone whose arrogance could be comparable to Su Xiaofei, Feng Xue'er would surely not let Ye Mingyu off the hook so easily. The so-called friendship that the two once claimed and bragged about in front of everyone in Su Xiaofei's past life, was nothing but a pretense between the two.
Just as the saying goes, one mustn't interrupt the enemy when she is making a mistake.
