"Hehe... Heng... engagent..."
Hearing this, Nian Suian suddenly jolted, a premonition rising in her heart...
She imdiately raised her head, looking towards the two people speaking.
"Alright, if you're really too busy, it's fine. It doesn't matter if we et or not, as long as you're happy."
The person speaking was Hehe's friend, so the other girl must be Hehe.
Nian Suian looked at her. The girl was fair-skinned with curved eyes, and when she smiled, you could see her little dimples. Thinking back to what she had overheard at the cinema, it was bad enough not knowing her, but now encountering her made it even more difficult.
"Excuse , this clothes... may I try it on?" Nian Suian approached them, pointing at the clothes in their hands. No matter what, she had to start a conversation first.
The girl called Hehe imdiately handed the clothes to Nian Suian, "Of course."
The mall was well-heated, so Nian Suian had taken off her coat when she ca in. It was perfect timing to pretend to try on clothes, so she put it on directly.
It was a light gray cashre coat, with a nice cut and style.
Jiang Yun had just changed into a new outfit and ca out of the fitting room. Seeing the coat on Nian Suian, she imdiately walked over, "Suian, that coat looks great on you."
Nian Suian smiled and deliberately said to Jiang Yun, "These two ladies saw this coat first. I thought it looked nice, so I asked to try it on."
Nian Suian's mind was full of wanting to talk more with them, to clarify if this "Hehe" was actually "Wen He".
"It's fine, it's fine." Hehe's friend, hearing Nian Suian's words, waved her hands repeatedly, "I was just trying it on, I wasn't planning to buy it. This coat costs two months of my salary."
"This coat probably isn't the only one, let's ask the shop assistant. Xin Xin, if you like it, just buy it. You've co all this way to visit , consider it my treat."
Before she could refuse, Hehe imdiately called over a shop assistant and got another one out.
"It really looks good, Xin Xin. Don't believe ? Ask them."
"She's right, this coat suits you very well," Nian Suian also said to her.
Xin Xin indeed liked the coat very much, but the price was too high. Although it wasn't completely unaffordable, spending two months' salary on a coat seed too extravagant.
"Co on, let's go pay! I said this coat is on ."
Nian Suian also took the coat and followed the two to the cashier.
"Oh? You're buying this coat too?"
Nian Suian nodded, "Yes, you don't mind if I wear the sa coat as you, do you?"
Xin Xin quickly shook her head, "Of course not, I don't mind at all. It's not like it's so one-of-a-kind haute couture piece."
When it ca ti to pay, Xin Xin and Hehe argued for quite a while, but in the end, Hehe won.
Xin Xin said, feeling very embarrassed, "I'm here to attend your engagent party, how can I let you spend money on ?"
"I'm just so happy you could co."
Nian Suian imdiately acted as if she was hearing about Hehe's engagent for the first ti, exclaiming with surprise, "You're getting engaged? Congratulations!"
After saying this, Nian Suian carefully observed Hehe's expression.
"Thank you."
Seeing the expression on her face, Nian Suian's heart sank. It was clear that when ntioning this, she was genuinely sweet and expectant. At this mont, Nian Suian truly hoped she had guessed wrong, that this girl had nothing to do with what she had overheard at the cinema earlier. She hoped she was just a happy girl about to get engaged, deeply in love with her boyfriend.
But how could she confirm this?
Nian Suian found herself in a dilemma. Even if she knew who she was, what could she do? Even if she really was that person, could she just run over and tell her not to get engaged, that her boyfriend was cheating, that he was on a date with another woman at the cinema?
To the girl, she was just a stranger. Between a stranger and her boyfriend, who would choose to believe a stranger...
"Suian? Suian, what's wrong?"
Hearing Jiang Yun call her, Nian Suian snapped back to reality. The two girls had already finished paying, and Nian Suian quickly handed over the coat she was holding to pay for it.
"We'll be going then, goodbye."
The two had already left with their purchased clothes. Nian Suian sighed inwardly, all that effort and even buying a coat, yet she hadn't managed to find out anything.
"Suian, what's going on with you today? Why do you seem so distracted?" Jiang Yun noticed sothing was off. She didn't even bother to buy her own clothes. After changing out of the clothes she was trying on, she dragged Nian Suian to a coffee shop.
"I'll tell you sothing, help analyze it."
"Go ahead."
Nian Suian carefully recounted to Jiang Yun what she had overheard at the cinema a few days ago, as well as today's events, and explained her dilemma.
"If it were you, what would you do?"
"So today, you kept talking to them because you wanted to confirm if that girl was the one you heard about?"
"Yes, but as you saw, I couldn't even find out her na."
"In my opinion, you shouldn't think too much about it. After all, it's soone else's business. If it were a friend, of course, we'd have to warn them. But this is different. You don't know her, she's a stranger. Even if you say sothing, it might not only be useless but could also make others question your intentions."
Jiang Yun's stance was to not get involved. With strangers, even if you want to help, you can't.
Nian Suian sighed, "Actually, you're right. I don't have any evidence, so how can I interfere? It's just that I feel a bit uneasy. If she never finds out, what if she gets married and ends up being deceived for a lifeti?"
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe she'll discover it herself after a while?"
Nian Suian was still conflicted inside, but now that the person had left, even if she wanted to say sothing, she had no way to do so.
After returning ho, Nian Suian was still feeling down. During dinner, even Gu Junxing noticed that her mood was off.
"What's wrong? Is there sothing going on at Zhijing's school?"
"Huh? No, Zhijing is doing fine at school. Nothing's wrong."
"Then why do you look unhappy?"
Nian Suian rested her chin on her hand, thought for a mont, and said to him, "Actually, I'm not really unhappy. I just feel a bit uneasy, I don't know how to explain it."
Gu Junxing put down his chopsticks, "Even if you don't know how to explain, try to say sothing. Don't keep it bottled up inside. Um... don't worry about phrasing, just say whatever cos to mind."
"If Qin Wei was cheating, would you tell Jiasong?"
(Qin Wei: Thanks a lot for that!)
"..."
Gu Junxing was taken aback for a mont. Thinking about Nian Suian's behavior today, he suddenly had a bad guess: "Where did you go this afternoon? You didn't see Qin Wei cheating, did you?"
