The next day Li Xiaolu woke up with an aching waist and a sore body. Glancing at herself in the mirror she was shocked to see her body covered with hickeys all over.Mentally rolling her eyes thinking about their crazy last night she chuckled when suddenly her eyes fell on the clock. "Oh! Great, it already 10:30 am. I was going to meet Meng Xuimin at 10 o"clock but looks like she can wait and another hour for me...." Li Xiaolu laughed walking towards the washroom.
Taking her own sweet time, she took a long relaxing shower. After that, she ate her breakfast which Zhehan had already cooked for her before he left for his office. Then after getting dressed up, she left for the cafe.
When she reached the cafe, she was already in an hour and a half late. She saw Meng Xuimin sitting at a corner and walked up to her. "Hey," she said sitting down on the chair.
"Hi, you look beautiful." Meng Xuimin smiled awkwardly . The last time she saw Li Xiaolu, she didn"t look this pretty. Today her goal was getting on Li Xiaolu"s good side and earning her trust. They have decided to meet at 10 o"clock so, in order to be not late, Meng Xuimin arrived half an hour early.
But she never thought that the one who would turn out to be late would be Li Xiaolu. She had to wait for two hours for this women to show up so she could b.u.t.ter her up and achieve her goal. Putting on a sweet innocent smile she asked, "How are you? "
"Great. " Li Xiaolu said not saying anything more than that. As a waitress pa.s.sed by Li Xiaolu ordered a strawberry milkshake for herself.
Meng Xuimin took deep breaths to calm herself down. There was not even an ounce of guilt on Li Xiaolu"s face for being late. No sorry or whatsoever. No matter how much she was feeling angry from inside Meng Xuimin had to keep smiling.
"See Xuimin, I don"t have much time. So let"s get straight to the point. What did you call me here for? " Li Xiaolu asked impatiently.
"Hehe... " Meng Xuimin gave a small awkward laugh, "Xiaolu what happened to you? Why are you talking like this? We are best friends and we are meeting after a long time. So I just called you to catch up, have a nice friendly chat with you. "
"Are we? " Li Xiaolu asked.
"What? "
"Meng Xuimin are we best friends? As much as I know, you are Li Roulan"s best friend, not mine. " Li Xiaolu said sipping on her strawberry milkshake.
"Xiaolu what are you talking about? Of course, we"re best friends. You and I - "
"Xuimin don"t bore me. Get straight to the point. What do you want from me? " Li Xiaolu asked interrupting Meng Xuimin.
Meng Xuimin"s face paled. Earlier, Li Roulan had told her about their new Xiaolu but she didn"t think that a person can change so much. But looks like she was totally wrong. Now looking at Li Xiaolu she can"t see the old Xiaolu in her.
"What? Are you just going to say something or just keep starring at me? Cause if you want you can take a picture of me and stare at it as much as you want. " Li Xiaolu smiled.
"I"m sorry...." Meng Xuimin apologized embarra.s.sedly. "It"s just you"re very different from before. What happened Li Xiaolu? Suddenly you changed so much... "
"You"re asking me what happened? That"s funny... " Li Xiaolu scoffed, "I thought you"re best friend would have told you that. "
"Oh! She did. I mean... she said something like you both argued on something and then you moved out of your house and broke all your relations to the Li family. What happened? " Meng Xuimin asked with an innocent and concern face.
Li Xiaolu chuckled, "Meng Xuimin after I destroy your singing career, I think you should try acting. You would make a better actress then Li Roulan. If I didn"t know the truth, I"d be definitely fooled by you. "
"W-what do you mean? You"re gonna destroy my career? Why? "
"Are you a fool? Meng Xuimin I know everything. After what you and best friend have done to me, do you really think I will sit around and do nothing? " Li Xiaolu sneered.
Meng Xuimin immediately shouted in defense, "I-I didn"t do anything. Trust me, Li Xiaolu. I didn"t have any part in it... "
"Calm down Xuimin. There are people around. Don"t forget you"re still a superstar. Maintain a good image, you don"t want people to find out your dirty secret now, do you?" Li Xiaolu smiled innocently.
Meng Xuimin felt s.h.i.+vers down her spine. She was afraid of this woman sitting with her. Taking a deep breath she drank a gla.s.s of water and looked at Li Xiaolu.

"Oh! By the way, did you go to the hospital? " Li Xiaolu asked as she toyed with her shades. Meng Xuimin shook her head denying, "No. W-why would I go to the hospital? "
Li Xiaolu was stunned. "Your best friend didn"t tell you? Woah! I thought you shared everything. Anyway, Chen Yufan is in the hospital.... " she informed. "I think you should visit him. "
"Yufan"s in the hospital? What happened? " Meng Xuimin asked in shock. Li Xiaolu laughed, " My husband beat him up. "
"You"re really married. " Meng Xuimin stated. When Li Roulan told her this, she didn"t believe it at first because she knew how much Li Xiaolu loved Chen Yufan but looks likes she was wrong again. "Why did your husband beat him up? " she asked.
"Hmm.... well because Chen Yufan touched something that he shouldn"t have. Anyway, it was not nice talking to you Meng Xuimin. I. have to go now... " Li Xiaolu said getting up from the chair as she took her purse and was about to leave when Meng Xuimin called her, "Li Xiaolu wait! "
"What?"
"C-can.... can we start over? Can you forgive me? I promise this time I will break my every tie to the Li family and Li Roulan. I"ll join your side. Just give me a chance...." Meng Xuimin begged. "I"m sorry."
Li Xiaolu smiled, "Sweetheart there"s one thing that n.o.body can ever forget or forgive - BETRAYAL. Where there is betrayal, there is a price to pay. Good luck!"
Li Xiaolu blew her a kiss and left.
