Chapter 70 - Do You Love Him?
Yong Liwei noticed how she was acting but he didn't dwell on it or bothered asking her anymore as well. He didn't want to strain her by giving her more reasons to be disappointed in him.
When Tian Ruyi came back with the copy of discharged papers, the atmosphere in the room was so different from when she came in earlier but she remained quiet and instead, she waited for a nurse to come in and take off the IV drip that was connected on Lu Mengjie's hand before she accompanied her out of the place together with the man she didn't like.
"You should get in your friend's car," said Yong Liwei. "I have to pass by somewhere else so you can go on ahead. Just message me the address of your place."
"Mm… okay." With that, Lu Mengjie entered the car, sitting at the passenger seat. She didn't even give Yong Liwei a glance or said anything else to him which made her friend wonder if they were really in a relationship.
After the man watched the two women leave, he walked towards his car and entered.
…
Inside Tian Ruyi's car…
"What happened?" She couldn't help but ask since she was so curious about the real relationship of the couple. She was looking ahead at the road, she was the one driving the car. "Did you two fight while I was away?"
"No…"
"Then?"
Lu Mengjie was hesitant. She didn't know what to say. Did they look like they were fighting in the eyes of others? She breathed out a long sigh before replying, "I don't know."
Tian Ruyi became quiet. She thought that maybe, the other woman just didn't want to talk about it, after all, it was their private matter so she didn't insist on asking. Instead, she changed the topic by saying, "Jingye's arriving tomorrow."
"Eh?" She blinked a few times, finally turning to her. "I thought that he was going to take his time working in the mainland?"
"Nope. Change of plans. We'll be returning to Japan soon and announce to everyone that the child you are carrying belongs to Jingye."
Returning to Japan… Should she tell Yong Liwei about this? She should, right? He was going to visit her twice a month after all but… if they were going back to Japan, she should tell him that he should stop visiting her instead. The place she was living there was dangerous because of the spies that the old man planted inside the house. Who knew, he might have also planted some outside?
Lu Mengjie gently placed her hands on top of her baby bump as she tried to clear out her mind from all the problems that were piling up.
"Have you already told that boyfriend of yours about your situation in the Bai family?" Tian Ruyi asked inquisitively.
"Yes."
"Good. Then he better stay out of our way. He should not show himself up in front of us," she huffed. She was going to use this opportunity to help her best friend to make this woman fall for him after all. She was going to use all means to push other men away from them.
"Do you hate him?" The pregnant woman, inquired, raising a brow at her friend in the process. She has already been noticing the strange atmosphere between them so she couldn't help but ask again. It was bothering her since earlier after all. Tian Ruyi may have successfully changed the topic earlier but now, it was back.
"Yeah! I do hate him!" Her friend exclaimed with a low growl under her breath.
Lu Mengjie blinked a lot in confusion. "Did he do something that made you hate him?"
"No, not really but he's your boyfriend so obviously I will hate him."
Tian Ruyi's reply only brought further confusion on the other woman. "You… hate him because he is my boyfriend? Why?"
Instead of answering her, she asked an honest question in return, "do you love him?"
They could only fool a blind person with their relationship. At first, Tian Ruyi thought that they were in love with each other. Yong Liwei treated Lu Mengjie so differently than how he was treating the other people around him. They would have almost deceived her eyes if not for what happened earlier. They may be fighting but… that man should have pursued his girlfriend more instead of leaving her and going somewhere else. He could have also followed them if Lu Mengjie insisted on riding with her but no, he didn't. In her eyes, she could see that man was not taking their relationship seriously.
On the other hand, Lu Mengjie became quiet upon hearing that question. She already has an answer for it but she hesitated on telling Tian Ruyi.
"I'm 100 percent sure that you guys are going to break up!"
"…" Wow… what a supportive friend…
"Even if he is the father of your child, you should not stay with him, Mengmeng. There are other better guys out there! For example, Bai Jingye."
"…"
"I know that Jingye may have not treated you well at first but that was all an act. You have already seen his real self, right? He's kind and gentle and sweet. His EQ may be low but he can work on it. Even if you are carrying another man's child, I'm pretty sure that Jingye will accept the child as his own. He never forgets special occasions. Not just his personality is perfect but he is also rich. He can buy whatever you want. If you want to buy the whole of Italy, I'm pretty sure he will be willing to empty his pocket for you!" Tian Ruyi continued talking nonstop about her childhood friend.
Why did it sound like she was selling Bai Jingye to her?
The woman who was driving the car finally turned to her after stopping at the red light. With a wide grin, she continued, "he is the perfect man to fall for. Tall, handsome, rich. What more can you ask for?"
"Yong Liwei is extra-rich. Extra-handsome. As for his height, Bai Jingye may be taller but I'm pretty sure the length of his dick is better. I'm not sure if it's a fact or a myth but they say that very tall men have smaller dicks."
Tian Ruyi's mouth dropped as she looked at Lu Mengjie in disbelief. "…"
