My Beautiful Love

Yun Xuan looked at her friend and thought deeply...

Then she asked Wan Jia, "On my engagement dinner, Old Two spoke to you? But I didn't see the two of you speak to each other."

Wan Jia decided to be honest. "I only went to take a breather. He followed me out and told me all those lies."

"That's weird. The only time he left my side was when he went to call his girlfriend."

Wan Jia felt like this Yun Jifeng was not your everyday schemer. So he had even been cautious against his sister suspecting him..."He really looked for me. What if he called his girlfiend first then came to me, or what if the girlfriend was just a cover?" She reasoned.

Bang!

Yun Xuan suddenly slammed her hands on the table. "That's it Wanwan! Why are you trying so hard to frame my brother in front of me?" She snarled.

Luckily, it was a private room and the sound proofing was quite good. Otherwise, this outburst would have made dramatic headlines.

"Why would I frame your brother? He really did find me, he talked me into believing his lies and...it can't be coincidental. He must be behind this."

Yun Xuan got even angrier. "Are you done?"

Wan Jia wanted to change the topic but this matter was too much to be casually tossed under the matt. "Why would I lie to you? Lu Aotian has the recording. If you don't believe me..."

Yun Xuan glared at her and shouted. "Lu Aotian has a recording? What recording? Something you pieced up together to sow discord between me and my brother? I've known Old Two for twenty one years. I grew up with him. Are you trying to say I don't know him well enough? You think I don't know his character? It's in fact you whose motives I don't know!"

She did not let Wan Jia speak and continued. "You know, I didn't realize before but now I do. Your stupid man clearly swore to destroy my family. Why did I believe you?

You are clearly on his side. Haha, how stupid was I? You made me believe that my dad is a criminal and now you are doing the same for my brother? I was so crazy to trust you, to treat you as my friend."

"Xuan..."

"Shut up! Shut the hell up! Ha ha! The joke is on me for thinking I had a good friend. What good friend? More like disgusting lying b*tch! I didn't understand before why the He family threw you out but now I do. It is because you're such a disgusting liar! They must have seen your true colors back then. If I was your parents, I would have thrown you out when you were nine. I pity them a lot for having to withstand you for all those years. You know what, He Wan Jia? No wonder all you could do best even years ago was be a cheap substitute!"

Cheap substitute?.... Was this what her friend thought of her?

As if not enough, she added even more hurtful words.

"Even the company you keep these days are actresses, liars and pretenders just like you! Hah! No wonder even your own mother couldn't stand you and swapped you out!"

Forget about dragging Lin Lihua into this inocently.

'No wonder even your mother couldn't stand you and swapped you out...?'

That was the most hurtful thing she had ever heard.

It was her weakness. Yun Xuan, her so called friend of three years, just had to trod ruthlessly on her weakness...

Wan Jia wanted to scream at her. She wanted to curse her, grab her hair and yell at her to take it back. However, she just sat there dumbfounded, then she stood, paid the bill quietly and left.

Ha ha. They had been friends. For more than three years, they had called each other 'best friends'.

Was this what friends did to each other? She knew Yun Xuan had always had a bad temper but this?

Even if you don't trust what your friend is saying about your family and believe in your family instead, is it necessary to say such hurtful words?

....Your mother couldn't stand you...

Those words kept replaying in her mind as tears stubbonly clouded her vision. She did not want to cry. She did not want to waste her emotions on a woman who had no feelings for her. Did she really not miss her? Not even a tiny bit?

'Mother, is what Xuan said true?

Did you really leave me because you couldn't stand me?

Is that why, even years after I was thrown out by the He family, you never showed up?

Mommy, do you know how much I wish to know you?

I don't care about the past. I'll forget about the past, alright?

Even if you don't like me, can I please see you once? Just once...'

...

Wan Jia did not know how she arrived home. The first thing she did was search "Zhang Li" on her laptop.

She got no information. Not even a single word about her.

Switching off her laptop, she broke down in tears.

"My love, what happened?" Lu Aotian came home from work only to find his little fiancée curled up in bed, crying like a baby.

She threw herself into Lu Aotian's arms and sobbed her heart out. Lu Aotian held her gently and patted her back until she stopped crying.

"Yun Xuan and I...we are not friends anymore."
