The next day, upon waking up from her sleep, Lu ngjie went to take a bath, and after, she wore a floral, chiffon maternity dress and partnered it with lace-up sandals. Her hair was tied up into a ponytail and after she has dressed up, she began packing her things. By the ti she went out of her room, she saw Tian Ruyi stirring up so food for lunch while Bai Jingye was sitting at the chair by the table with a phone in his hand. The sight of her two friends lightened her chest and at the sa ti, she thought that they really do look like a couple.
Tian Ruyi, who had a pink apron on, sohow looked more like a housewife while Bai Jingye was the working husband who was quietly waiting for his wife to finish cooking. Sadly, they were just friends who would never fall for each other… or at least that was what they thought. Lu ngjie believed that maybe one day, they would begin to start seeing each other differently.
She couldn't help but envy their friendship. It suddenly made her think about the friends she has. What kind of person were they? Did she even have close friends to begin with?
Sloth and Lust were different matters. She could not consider them as her friends since one was her teacher and the other was... her admirer she guess?
It suddenly made her chuckle inwardly when she rembered how Lust's eyes would sparkle in delight whenever she saw her. She couldn't help but see her as a lively child.
While she was in her trance, it was Bai Jingye who noticed her and snapped her out of her thoughts. "Oh, you're awake." He lowered his phone, placing it on the side.
"Co, co, I'm almost done with this," Tian Ruyi invited. She stirred the spatula one last ti before she placed so of the viand on a saucer plate. She blew on it a few tis before she took a sip.
Lu ngjie approached and took a seat on the chair she would usually choose which was on the other end of the table so she was basically facing Bai Jingye. She looked at the man in front of her. He was wearing a navy blue polo shirt with the sleeves rolled up around his arms. He looked gorgeous actually, especially with his slick back hair. He kind of looked different from last night. Maybe it was because of the style of his hair?
If she had to choose between two hairstyles that suited him, she honestly preferred his hair to be down and a bit ssy. She thought that he looked sexier that way.
"How was your sleep?" It was just a casual question coming from none other than Bai Jingye.
"I slept like a rock," she replied with a grin flashed on her lips. It was an honest answer. After eating the snack slash early breakfast, she felt better. The mont she entered her room, Lu ngjie's mood beca down upon rembering what happened between her and Yong Liwei but the instant she lied down on the bed, she easily fell asleep. Who wouldn't? Her eyes were salty from crying. She lacked her sleeping hours and most of all, she was pregnant.
"By the way, I heard from Jingye that you made him try your special recipe." Tian Ruyi said while she placed the food on the table.
"It was disgusting," the man said without even blinking once. He was awfully honest with his review about the food Lu ngjie made him eat.
Tian Ruyi giggled. She looked at her friend with a smirk. "See? I told you so."
Lu ngjie gave out a loud gasp and quickly said in her defense, "no it's not! What's wrong with you guys? You really should get your tongues checked."
"Nothing is wrong with us. It's you," Bai Jingye refuted rcilessly. "I can't understand the reason why you can eat a food like that."
Lu ngjie pouted upon hearing his ruthless remark. He could at least pretend that he liked the food. There was one thing that hasn't changed in him since the first ti she t him. He was simply... annoying. He knew how to keep her mad!
She glared at the man in front of her. "The trash will be picked up later, be ready!"
He raised a brow at her. Did she just address him as trash?
"You're talking like an idiot," he hissed.
"Of course I talk like an idiot. How else could you understand ?" She retorted. There was no way she would lose if it was going to be a battle of sharp tongues.
The atmosphere between the two beca heavy as they both ended up glaring at each other. If looks could kill, they would have been killing each other already with their icy glares.
"Now, now, children. It's not proper to argue in front of the food. Do it later," said Tian Ruyi with a motherly tone in her voice. She sat in a chair near her childhood friend.
"He started it."
The man ended up raising a brow in disbelief when he heard her words.
"Alright, alright. Whoever started it needs to apologize." Tian Ruyi turned to look at the man near her.
In an instant, Bai Jingye ended up frowning. "I didn-" He was stopped when he felt a kick on his leg.
Tian Ruyi was looking at him aningfully as if saying with her eyes, 'you should apologize even if it's not your fault.'
His scowl deepened. That was illogical no matter how he thought of it. "It's not my-"
He received another kick from her.
In the end, Bai Jingye was forced to whisper a "Sorry."
"I can't hear you." Of course, Lu ngjie wouldn't let go of it without teasing him for it.
The man glared coldly but the pregnant woman remained to look at him with her innocent gaze.
He sighed in defeat. "Sorry."
"Great! Now that Jingye has apologized, let's enjoy our food." It was Tian Ruyi who saved him from what Lu ngjie was about to say.
As they began eating, Lu ngjie was glad that Tian Ruyi hadn't asked her about what happened, maybe it was because she knew that Bai Jingye might have probably told her about it already, and now, she appreciated how the two never brought up the topic for her.
...
Later that afternoon, upon arriving at the airport, Lu ngjie saw a familiar tall figure of a man, sitting by the bench. When he heard his flight was announced, he stood up together with his assistant. The man was wearing a black cashre coat, looking all like a model with his million-dollar face and figure.
Who would have thought that his flight to the mainland would be that day too?
"ngng…" Tian Ruyi held her arm, looking at her with worry evident in her eyes.
"I'm fine," she reassured her. She pulled her arm away and said, "wait here."
Bai Jingye frowned and asked, "what are you going to do?"
"Watch."
Before Yong Liwei and his assistant could leave, she began walking towards them to which she was quickly noticed by the two n.
Lu ngjie couldn't tell the expression on his eyes since he was wearing sunglasses but she didn't care. She stopped in front of the man who crushed her trust.
Yong Liwei lowered her glasses, aiming his piercing gaze at her.
She remained unaffected by his icy glare and instead, she greeted both the boss and his assistant, "hey testicles, left and right."
"…"
Tian Ruyi dropped her mouth when she heard her words. She actually followed her friend as a backup in case the man tried to do sothing.
Just like her, Bai Jingye and the two n which Lu ngjie greeted were speechless.
Before Yong Liwei could even open his mouth, she caught him to it by saying, "if I rember correctly, you said that the next ti I see you will be my last, and yet here we are."
"I didn't expect that we'll be seeing each other this fast," he chuckled in reply.
"Then you must not be expecting this too." She took a step close and in the next second, she kneed his groin.
Obviously, the man was not expecting it. He groaned as the excruciating pain made him bend, his hands were subconsciously placed in between.
"I hope you will totally beco infertile now! Cumber-douche! Worthless scumbag, rember this! You want to run away and hide? Sorry to disappoint you but the next ti we et, I will shove this in your ass!" She raised her middle finger at his face. She turned away and left the group of people who were speechless at what they heard.
"W-wait, ngng!" Tian Ruyi was the first person to snap out of her trance. She grabbed her bag and quickly went to follow the pregnant woman to the gate they were assigned to.
Shortly after her, Bai Jingye followed, leaving the limping Yong Liwei and his assistant behind.
