After a long silence, Fang Yuqing apologized to Jiang Wei in an apologetic tone. âIâm sorry. I thoughtâ¦â She clenched her fists and said in a low voice,â I thought you wanted toâ¦â
Her expression made Jiang Weiâs heart ache.
In the end, she could not help but pull Fang Yuqing into her arms.
He pressed her head against his chest, and Fang Yuqing froze. Jiang Wei comforted her softly, âDonât be afraid. No one will lie to you again. At least I wonât lie to you.â
Fang Yuqing was stunned.
Then, her broken cries suddenly sounded in the house.
She pinched Jiang Weiâs shirt tightly. Jiang Wei heard her cry, âJiang Wei, I feel terrible. Really! Why did he lie to me? I also wanted to give my first time to the person I liked, but I really liked him at that time. I didnât know he would lie to meâ¦â
âJiang Wei, believe me. Iâm really not a loose woman. Iâm not.â Perhaps she was indeed silly and sweet at that time. At such a young age, her resistance was weak, but she was really not unrestrained by nature.
She knew what the people in school were saying about her and what she could do.
Back then, in the class group chat, she saw everyone discussing her matter openly. Their words were very unpleasant. At that time, she was indeed too desperate and could not help but slit her wrist and commit suicide. All these years, she had worked hard to live and tried to walk out of the shadow of that matter.
But the past was like a post-it note that was always stuck on your back.
People might forget, but they would not.
When old friends met again, they would always point fingers.
Jiang Weiâs heart ached.
He told her over and over again, âI believe you. I really believe you. Youâre a good girl. I know youâre a good girl.â
Fang Yuqing quickly composed herself.
She was a little embarrassed. She said, âIâm going to the toilet.â
Jiang Wei pointed behind him. âThe toilet is there.â
Fang Yuqing entered the toilet and came out after a while. She had washed her face and was very beautiful without makeup. Fang Yuqingâs face was not flawless and fair. There were also two or three small blemishes, but this did not affect her beauty.
Jiang Wei said, âThe clothes are in the cabinet in my room. Go pick them yourself.â
âOkay.â
Jiang Weiâs room was quite big and clean. The bed was pure gray, and it showed the ownerâs coldness. She opened the cabinet suspiciously and really saw a few sets of female clothes in the cabinet. There were dresses and other clothing sets.
Fang Yuqing was especially surprised. Whose clothes were these?
She chose a blue shoulder-length top with a white floral A-line skirt. This matched her shoes better. When Fang Yuqing changed her clothes, she realized that the size of the waist was especially tight. This dress was definitely not Jiang Jieâs. Jiang Jieâs chest was bigger than hers.
Jiang Jie was famous for being a big wave.
Fang Yuqing was a little uneasy and vexed.
She put on her clothes and left the room. She ignored Jiang Weiâs gaze and asked him with a dark expression, âDoes this dress belong to your girlfriend?â
Realizing that Fang Yuqing was angry, Jiang Wei was stunned. Afraid that she would misunderstand, he quickly said, âNo.â He stared into Fang Yuqingâs eyes and said solemnly, âI donât have a girlfriend.â
Fang Yuqingâs tense body finally relaxed.
âThatâs good.â
Jiang Wei chased after her and asked, âWhat do you mean thatâs good? Are you very happy that I donât have a girlfriend?â Did you hope that I didnât have a girlfriend? Jiang Wei only dared to ask this in his heart.
Jiang Weiâs eyes suddenly burned.
Fang Yuqing said, âIf you have a girlfriend, it would be wrong for me to still be so close to you. After all, our relationship is still different. We have to avoid suspicion.â She had been harmed by a mistress before. She hated mistresses the most. Naturally, she would not do something as shameless as that mistress.
Jiang Weiâs fervent gaze turned cold again.
âOkay, we should go.â
In the car, Fang Yuqing kept looking at herself in the mirror.
âWhy are you always looking at yourself in the mirror?â Jiang Wei asked.
Fang Yuqing said, âI didnât put on makeup today, and there are no skincare products in my bag.â She pointed at the small blemishes on her forehead and said, âThe blemishes are still there. They donât look good.â
Jiang Wei said, âThis is good too.â
âIâll look more energetic with light makeup.â
Jiang Wei was silent for a moment. Just as Fang Yuqing took out her phone and was about to play with it, Jiang Wei suddenly said, âYouâre nervous.â
Fang Yuqing was stunned.
She put her phone back into her bag and sighed. âHow can I not be nervous? Weâre all alumni. Perhaps one of them knows me. Iâ¦â She tilted her head and asked Jiang Wei,â Wonât you be embarrassed if you bring me along? â
âItâs not embarrassing.â
Afraid that Fang Yuqing would not believe her, Jiang Wei had to repeat, âI wonât ever be embarrassed.â
Fang Yuqingâs face turned hot.
Following Jiang Wei into the private clubhouse, although Fang Yuqing straightened her back, her eyes were always weak. Jiang Wei suddenly held her hand and said, âDonât be afraid.â
Fang Yuqing took a deep breath and said, âIâm not afraid.â Iâm just a little flustered.
She followed Jiang Wei into the room and saw more than twenty adult men and women in the room. Fang Yuqing was stunned at first, but then she sized up those people. Seeing that they were looking at her calmly, Fang Yuqing heaved a sigh of relief.
Song Zhi, En Zuo, and the rest were all there. Jiang Wei had already told them not to talk about Fang Yuqing.
Hence, no one was surprised to see Fang Yuqing.
Actually, they were all adults and could understand Fang Yuqingâs situation. The world was different now. It was common for minors to fall in love. Unlike those people, Fang Yuqingâs pregnancy was made public, and those people did it secretly.
If one really looked into it, Fang Yuqing was the victim.
That Hu Cheng was really not a good person.
âHey, Young Master Jiang, you brought your girlfriend?â
Jiang Wei did not deny it or confirm it.
He placed Fang Yuqing beside him.
Fang Yuqing looked up and sized up the people in the room. She actually found someone familiar.
Hua Wushuang.
What surprised Fang Yuqing even more was that she and Hua Wushuang were wearing the same outfit!
Jiang Wei followed Fang Yuqingâs gaze and was stunned when he realized that Hua Wushuang was wearing the same clothes as Fang Yuqing. He quickly told Fang Yuqing, âThis is really a coincidence. She took a fancy to this when I went shopping with my sister last time. She said that this suits you, so I bought it. It has nothing to do with Hua Wushuang.â
The last time Fang Yuqing saw him and Hua Wushuang holding hands and appearing as a pair in the bar, there had already been a misunderstanding. At this moment, he realized that they were wearing the same clothes. He did not know what Fang Yuqing would think.
Jiang Wei was a little anxious.
Upon hearing his words, Fang Yuqingâs attention was not on Hua Wushuang, but something else. âSo you bought this for me?â
Jiang Wei seemed to have been cursed and died.
