"What? Are you serious? You are really planning to go to their engagement party. Don"t pretend to be so dumb, Lifen. Exactly how much pain are you planning to endure?" Daiyu rebuked.
Lifen has already accepted the invitation offered by Ms.Long last night. After that she has left the restaurant informing Daiyu and Guang through a text message. They have already guessed that something was off with her, so early in the morning they had come to visit her.
Lifen had told them everything from the last night except the thing that Deming was the same boy from her childhood. She knew if they come to know about this then they will surely create some kind of fuss which she doesn"t want. So she didn"t tell them this. Little did she knew that Guang had already know her this secret.
There are more truths about her and her ident.i.ty which she had kept hidden but she knew very well that it would never affect their friends.h.i.+p.
All this time Guang was sitting on bed and just listening Lifen"s story and then Daiyu"s harsh words full of concern. "It"s okay Daiyu. Relax! Let her take decisions for herself. We will always support her as her friends ". She gave a gentle smile to Lifen and then gave her a warm strengthening hug.
Daiyu was totally irritated with both of them. What are they thinking? "Really? Really Guang, you are telling this. Yeah, we are friends that"s why I can"t let her be in pain. You know well too, how much she has suffered in the last month and still suffering. Being friend, I can"t let her be so stubborn. In our group, only I have right to be stubborn. I can"t let you both enjoy that", she snarled.
Both Lifen and Guang let out a loud chuckle. "Daiyu, you still care about such a silly right. Don"t worry, I won"t ever add a hashtag of stubborn in my list", Lifen said and hugged her lovingly from behind.
Daiyu maid a pout face, "Don"t do that. You two always make me feel as if I am kid".
"Not at all. Okay I have a request. Please help me with something, so that I can save some time. I want to spend my time with two of you. Soon I will be going abroad and I am gonna miss you two too much", with that words, the expressions on three face saddened.
Some tears flowed down Lifen"s cheeks and the rest to came forward and gave a warm group hug which was essential at this moment.
"That"s really bad of you, Lifen. You always make us so emotional. I am not gonna miss you. But I will miss your creepy dreams", Daiyu said in a low voice which made the other two laugh loud and again came a soft smile on their faces.
"Lifen, Daiyu is correct this time. We are really gonna miss your silly dreams. But I am sure, you will come to visit us, don"t you?" Guang remarked.
Lifen nodded and again Daiyu was p.i.s.sed off by Guang"s words, "Hey, what do you mean I am correct this time? I am always correct. How can you both belittle me like this. Get lost you two, I won"t help anymore".
After coaxing Daiyu, Lifen asked her to visit the Zhang School of Business and help her collect the transfer certificates and the other certificates for which she had applied. Guang remained with Lifen at home.
When they were alone in her room, Lifen went to work on the remaining doc.u.ments while Guang lied down on the bed flipping off the pages of a novel that she has casually picked from Lifen"s collection.
"Lifen!"
"Huh?" Lifen kept her eyes still on the pages of the file which was currently checking.
"I know that Deming is the boy you mentioned from the childhood", Guang drop the bombsh.e.l.l in a nonchalant manner as if it was something that Lifen already knew and doesn"t matter much.
Lifen was strucked with her word. Guang knew all the time but how? As per her remembrance, Lifen has never mentioned the talks of her childhood after Deming appeared in her life. So there was no chance for Guang to even guess that.
She tilted her head to look at her but she was still busy with the book, "Guang, if you are really intending to read that novel, at least hold it properly. You are holding it in reverse way"
On mentioning, Guang realised that she was holding the book upside down. The book was just an excuse, actually the whole time she was just thinking of the ways to confront Lifen with this topic.
Now since she already knows that Lifen has caught her, she doesn"t need the book. She just flip the book close and sat upright on the bed. "Okay, I will be clear that I know that Deming the boy you always kept on mentioning from years before".
Lifen gently stood up and walked to the bed and sat across her, "Really? If that"s so, I am relieved that now there is one secret less in book of secrets",she chuckled lightly.
"Lifen, I am serious ".
"So am I, Guang. I am really relieved now that now I don"t have to hide my pains from you. Tell me how did you came to know this?", she raised brows lightly.
"Uhmmm that, you remember that you showed me pic of you and that boy from childhood. The same pic, I found is with that w.a.n.g Deming. He has kept it in his wallet", Guang said with a serious tone.
She paused for a moment and then continued, "I always had a doubt about his intentions towards you when he started dating you fake. So I have once confronted him to warn him , the say when Aunt Wu got the discharge. He has come to ask about you in the hospital and accidentally dropped his wallet while rus.h.i.+ng out. It noticed it then and asked a nurse is hand him back. That day, I came to know that",
"Oh, it"s like that", Lifen said and picked the novel and start flipping its pages to avoid Guang"s sharp gaze, which were a.n.a.lysing something on her face.
"Lifen, did he know that you are the girl in that picture?" Guang knew the answer to this question but still she asked from Lifen.
"It"s of no use now. He might remember that girl but not his promise. It"s better to let the things be in its way. He has already moved on and now going to get engage to girl he has loved for half of his life", Lifen answered smoothly.
