Indeed, there’s a saying that is absolutely true.
"Every cloud has a silver lining."
She had spent the whole night fretting without finding a good solution, but then Gao Lin’s call provided her with a lifeline.
Whether Gao Lin genuinely broke up with Gu Yuzhi or it was just a ruse was none of her business; her goal was to have Gao Lin follow her advice, and set up the sche. Once it was in motion, Gao Lin would show Gu Yuzhi Xia Wan’an’s true face. anwhile, she... would find a way to bait Han Jingnian to the scene.
Words can be deceptive, it’s what one sees that counts. Once Han Jingnian witnessed this kind of drama unfold, Xia Wan’an would be ruined completely. At that point, whether it was Han Jingnian or Zhang Te, who would care about the detail of her sabotaging Xia Wan’an behind the scenes?
...
Because she had gone to bed quite late, Xia Wan’an didn’t get up until late in the morning. If it hadn’t been for Song Youman’s incessant phone calls, she could have slept a few more hours.
After dragging herself out of bed, Xia Wan’an lazily picked up Song Youman’s call, while heading into the bathroom to wash up.
"Wan’an, I need to ask you sothing..."
Xia Wan’an, still drowsy and holding her toothbrush, uttered a noncommittal "Hmm" and continued to brush her teeth with her eyes half shut.
"What happened between you and Ai Jiang? She just called ..."
Hearing this, the fog of sleep lifted from Xia Wan’an instantly.
She had been too focused on getting so sleep last night and had forgotten to inform Song Youman. She hoped that the play she had carefully staged at the cost of her sleep wouldn’t be exposed now...
With that thought, Xia Wan’an quickly removed the toothbrush from her mouth, still foaming, and asked, "What did you two talk about? You have to tell everything."
"Well, Ai Jiang suddenly sent a picture of you and Saoge, asking if Saoge is your husband. I was completely dumbfounded, Saoge is obviously your brother, how could he be your husband?"
Song Youman had sneakily nicknad Xia Chen’an ’Saoge’, thinking that he was a bit of a ladies’ man.
"You, you, just cut to the chase, what did you reply to her?"
"? I said yes, Saoge is your husband!"
Xia Wan’an heaved a sigh of relief, resud brushing her teeth, and asked, "Then what happened?"
"Then Ai Jiang asked when you got married and why she didn’t know about it. I said your father was in poor health and wanted you to get married, so you did. But it was a strategic marriage, so not many people knew about it..."
This is what real BFFs do. She gave exactly the sa explanation!
Xia Wan’an excitedly blew a kiss to her phone, "Youman, I love you so much. If you were here right now, I would give you a hundred kisses!"
"You, save your excitent. Continue brushing your teeth. There is more... After discussing all this, Ai Jiang strangely asked if I was upset with you. I was genuinely perplexed. When have we ever had a disagreent? I would never let that happen. So, I asked her why she asked such a question, it took her a while to mumble out that you were badmouthing last night..."
Ai Jiang really was... trying everything she could to sow discord between her and Song Youman!
Xia Wan’an opened her mouth to ask Song Youman if she believed her,
But before she could speak, Song Youman spoke up, "Do you think I would believe her? Of course not. But in my heart of hearts, I said, ’I have disliked you for a long ti!’."
