CHAPTER 100
"I thought you had travelled or sothing or you no longer lived there or sothing bad had happened to you."
"I am sorry about that. I did not travel. I was working."
"And you did not think about informing ?"
"Once again, I apologize. It was wrong of , Fen Fen."
"Obviously. I would deal with the issue later, but for now... What the fuck am I seeing on the bloody news!"
’Yup, I have been waiting for that. Rain down on .’ Li Jing thought and a small smile curved up her lips.
"Since when did you beco Ye Cheng’s, financial manager? I know I am not seeing wrong. I know you anyti, any day. Although the change in your appearance almost made not recognize you, I still did."
Yin Lifen continued pumping Li Jing with questions, making her friend feel tired.
"Look, Yin Lifen. It is a long story, perhaps when we see, I would explain it all to you."
"Oh no, no, no, no. You ain’t doing that to again. Recall the last one? Till now I do not know that guy’s na and now you want to add more. You are not scamming ."
Li Jing could not believe her ears. It was not that she did not want to tell her friend who Ye Cheng was, at least he has already revealed himself to the public and to his enemies, who was she to hide it?
What was wrong was that they kept on being distracted and then work ca, leaving her totally inaccessible.
"Fine. I am not ditching you. I would tell you everything, right now."
"Hold that thought."
As they spoke, the doorbell rang, disturbing their conversation.
Ding! Ding!
"I am sorry, Fen Fen, I need to check who is at the door."
"Do not cut the call, we can still be on the phone while you get the door," Yin Lifen suggested.
"Okay then."
Imdiately, Li Jing stood up and walked towards her door to see who the visitor was. As soon as she opened the door, she was greeted with the face of the last person she expected to see.
"Hello, Li Jing."
"Fen Fen! Wait, but... you... I... we were... you." Li Jing was at a loss of words and began to stamr when she tried to form any coherent words from her mouth.
Her eyes darted from her phone in her left hand to the person standing in front of her.
Yin Lifen smiled at her friend before putting her phone down from her ears and cutting the call. "Surprised to see ?"
Li Jing’s surprised look was all she needed to get her confirmation. Without saying another word, she stepped forward and hugged her friend briefly and stepped inside, leaving Li Jing by the door.
It took a minute for Li Jing to get herself and covered her opened mouth then closed the door and go to et her friend in the living room.
"Don’t be stunned. I was already on my way hear after trying your number countless tis and it was not going through."
At her friend’s disclosure, Li Jing fully understood why all these happened.
"I tried your line and surprisingly it worked."
"Why didn’t you tell you were coming here?" Li Jing questioned her friend.
"And ruin the surprise? Definitely not. Besides, I wanted to hear everything from your mouth directly and not through a phone. Co and sit, we have a lot of just to catch on."
Li Jing resigned herself to her fate and went to sit beside her friend."Well, I think you would need a glass of juice for this discussion."
"Whatever you say. Just know that I do not mind sharing with you. Anything would do. I don’t want this discussion to be interrupted like the others we have been having."
"I understand. I would be right back."
"Okay."
Yin Lifen waited in her seat for her friend to get the can od juice and a glass cup for her to use to drink it.
By the ti all was set, Li Jing was ready to reveal the truth to her friend.
"Yin Lifen, rember the guy I told you about?"
"Yes, the one that harassed you? Yes, tell Ye Cheng beat him up and beca you knight in shining armour and that was how you two t."
Sotis, Li Jing wondered what kind of imagination her friend had. She simply did not let her finish and just concluded and told the whole story by herself.
Li Jing let out a deep sigh and shook her head at her. "That is not what happened, fen fen."
"Oh, it’s not?"
"No. Just let tell my story."
"Okay, go on."
"His na is... Ye Cheng."

Yin Lifen did not believe she heard well. The man her friend was staying with all these while was none other than Ye Cheng! The dashing godlike human and the richest young businessman in the country!
"You are kidding, right?"
Li Jing closed her eyes and shook her head at her friend. "Nope. I wish I was but I am not."
"What! Why did you not tell ?" Yin Lifen felt a bit betrayed by her friend, not because she looked like she was the apple of Ye Cheng’s eyes but that her celebrity crush idol was close by all this ti and she could not see him.
"I only found out recently. You know I did not know his na until later."
"True, but still."
"Oh and for the record, he never harassed , not even once."
"Oh, I see. Then, in this case, you were the one harassing him with your eyes, right?" Li Jing could not give an answer to that as it was too embarrassing to admit it but her friend caught the clue and smiled at her.
"Ooh, my baby! Okay, that is one bit. I want to know everything that transpired between you two. Tell everything."
As her wish, Li Jing told her all she needed to know but was careful about telling her the raid and what made them leave.
She only made up a lie that Ye Cheng thought she deserved a better place as where she was, was too lonely, then she moved here.
By the ti she was done telling her story, it was already a bit late into the day and Yin Lifen had to get back ho or her grandmother would be sad.
Both ladies bade themselves goodbye then Yin Lifen left.
"Phew!What a day!"
