Chapter 5: Where Is My Old Friend?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The clinic looked the sa except for the sign. He Yi who had been through a period of suffering had a bad feeling about this.

Indeed, the clinic changed its owner and Wang Han’s whereabouts were unknown.

The new owner described that the previous owner of the property was not Wang Han, too, which ant the clinic had switched owners multiple tis.

No wonder Wang Han lost contact with her in these five years. She left!

‘Where is she? Is she doing well?’ He Yi was bugged by unanswered questions because her friend who she was going to rely on had gone missing.

Wei Jiang was the only one left!

He Yi did not have high expectations of Wei Jiang because she was a little unreliable if compared to Wang Han.

She was a spoiled girl from a rich family who was good at nothing but cling to soone.

She was like a clingy kitten from her mory. He Yi rembered how Wei Jiang used to cling to Wang Han and her. She would either be eating or ordering them to do stuff every ti they were talking.

She acted like a princess who was used to the world spoiling her without limits. Many female students disliked her during their university tis but He Yi and Wang Han accepted her. They then beca good friends and housemates because they were staying in the sa hostel.

He Yi’s scalp felt tight when she thought that Wei Jiang was the final person she could rely on in Yun City.

Things went on smoother than she expected.

Wei Jiang was still staying in the sa house, a quiet double-story villa with a small garden. The fresh yellow jasmines on the walls were blooming beautifully.

The rain stopped. He Yi kept the umbrella and pushed open the gate to enter.

Instead of security guards and maids, a young girl was seen playing with a paper boat near the fountain in the garden. Noticing He Yi, she raised her chubby cheeks and looked at her with curiosity.

He Yi could guess the girl’s identity because of her tiny and delicate features that were sowhat familiar. She walked to her and bent over to caress the girl’s shiny braids before asking her in a trembling tone, “Where is your mother?”

‘This must be Wei Jiang’s daughter!’ He Yi could not help but thought of her own daughter when she saw her. Her nose beca stuffy and she felt a lump in her throat.

“Mommy’s there!” The girl extended her chubby little hands to poke He Yi’s back.

He Yi turned around and saw Wei Jiang.

She was holding a glass of warm orange juice prepared for the girl. She dropped the glass onto the ground when she noticed He Yi.

“He Yi!” a loud shriek erupted from Wei Jiang as she charged over for a big hug. She twisted in circles with her, rubbed her, pinched her, and even bit her out of excitent. Like a puppy who found its owner, she burst into joyful tears, “He Yi, you’re finally out! Finally! I didn’t think that I’d see you again!”

He Yi sighed internally as Wei Jiang was still the sa after five years. She did not beco mature at all although she beca a mother.

He Yi took a shower and changed into fresh clothes. She sat in the living room on the first floor with a cup of hot coffee in her hands. She finally got out of her ssy just-out-of-prison state and returned to her Young Lady He’s elegant self.

He Yi was blessed with beauty and she possessed an elegant aura from all the quality education she had since young. She lost her ex-convict look by just gussying up a little.

However, her ntal scars would never be recovered just because she dressed up physically.

Ge Ge hid behind her mother as she stared at the unfamiliar guest in the living room silently. She was four, just a year younger than Wan Wan, He Yi’s daughter. She was a little shy of a stranger. Although her mother asked her to address He Yi as Aunt, she refused and hid.

He Yi noticed sothing was wrong but she could not believe it. She put down the coffee and looked around before asking, “Where are the rest of your family?”

She rembered how grand the Wei family was but sothing was different.

The house and the furniture were the sa but there were obvious signs of disarray and age which must be caused by lack of maintenance and care in the last five years.

The paintwork for the dining table and chairs was falling off and there were cracks and stains on the ceiling. The furniture was old and dusty, even the cutlery looked chipped and dirty. The beautiful teak flooring in her mory was now covered with dirt and many of them were warped.

Those were clear indications that the house owner was not doing well financially and could not afford to maintain the past luxurious lifestyle by hiring maids to tidy up the house.

Wei Jiang was never a person who did housework so how could she clean up or do house chores? Both Ge Ge and her were wearing plain clothing and there were no signs that she was a previous rich lady at all.

Looking at He Yi’s frown and confusion, Wei Jiang withdrew her shoulders and she wrinkled her nose before she shed a sorrowful tear.

“My dad passed away two years ago and the business went to Jiang Peng. He isn’t savvy with it so we’ve been losing more than we earn…” Wei Jiang’s voice beca softer as she spoke and there was unprecedented lancholy in her delicate eyes.

It was clear that she did not have a great two years.

Jiang Peng was Wei Jiang’s boyfriend, he was also He Yi’s friend during university. As an art student, he was good at music and he won the heart of Wei Jiang who was a hopeless romantic with his rich artistic sense. The couple then relived the cliche love story of a rich girl marrying a poor guy in reality.

They proved that an artist would not be suitable for business. The fall of the Wei family’s house was clear proof of Jiang Peng’s performance in the last two years. It was no joke to cause the grand Wei family’s house to fall into the current state when Wei Jiang’s father only passed away two years ago.

“I can accept that he couldn’t earn any money and even lost so. However, he had been drinking a lot because of his failure and he would cause a ruckus whenever he drinks…” Fear erged within Wei Jiang’s teary eyes when she ntioned her husband. She was clearly traumatized from staying in fear for a long term. She paused and turned around, “I’ve been miserable but I had no one to tell as Wang Han is missing and I lost contact with her. I wanted to visit you at the prison but the warden didn’t allow it because you committed a serious offense…”

He Yi listened in silence, things were exactly like she expected. She wanted to ask Wei Jiang about Wang Han but to no avail.

Wei Jiang did look for Wang Han to discuss ways to save He Yi years ago but the clinic was closed and her number was unreachable. The clinic resud operating after so ti but the owner was a different person and Wang Han disappeared completely after that.

He Yi had many questions after listening to Wei Jiang. Wang Han’s disappearance was indeed incomprehensible.

‘What happened to Wang Han when I was locked up? Where did she go? Why is there no news of her at all in these five years?’

The two discussed for a while without an answer. Ge Ge shrieked suddenly when the two were still discussing, “Daddy’s back!”

The girl hid in her mother’s arms like a frightened kitten and her mother also started shaking. The two of them hugged each other for warmth, their eyes filled with fear and terror were fixed toward the door.

The lovebirds in the past beca a tragedy in the present. Spouses can be either close to each other, or distant like the sun and the moon.

A dry smile was ford on He Yi’s face. She rose and stared at Jiang Peng coldly. He stumbled his way in, slling of alcohol. She could tell that this man who terrorized Wei Jiang and their daughter to the core must be even more of an *ss than Chu Tianyi!
