Chapitre 20: The One Who Understands Me Well

With her sister's help, Ye Qing Xin finally set up a date to meet up with Zhang Yu Ying. However, two days before their meeting, Jiang Liang Chen came to visit her at home.

"Xin Xin," Jiang Liang Chen stood up and looked at her anxiously. "I heard that you are planning to postpone your wedding with Tian Yi. What's going on?"

Ye Qing Xin walked into the living room calmly.

The Jin family came to discuss her wedding last night and Jiang Liang Chen already came to visit her because of this matter.

An auntie walked into the room and started to serve some refreshments for the guest. Knowing that Jiang Liang Chen was her best friend, everyone did not dare to neglect her.

Ye Qing Xin glanced at the tray of food and noticed that the snacks were all expensive and imported ones that her elder brother had delivered.

Usually, Jiang Liang Chen would not waste any second sampling the snacks that the auntie had prepared. However, this time, Jiang Liang Chen did not even glance at the snacks.

Ye Qing Xin figured that the matter about her postponed wedding should come as a surprise to Jiang Liang Chen as well.

Once the auntie left, Ye Qing Xin turned to Jiang Liang Chen again and spoke, "How did you know about this?"

"What do you mean? It's Tian Yi who told me about this," Jiang Liang Chen spoke. "He called me yesterday and told me how upset he was that you decided to postpone the wedding. Xin Xin, you were always looking forward to the wedding. Why do you want to postpone it now?"

Ye Qing Xin took a piece of the expensive cookie and popped it into her mouth. "Have you forgotten about it? Liang Chen, I have lost my memory. I don't even know that I have a fiance until he came to visit me."

Jiang Liang Chen was silently observing Ye Qing Xin's expression.

"I don't remember Tian Yi and I don't love him," Ye Qing Xin continued. "Do you expect me to marry someone I don't know? A stranger?"

There was a long pause between them. Jiang Liang Chen was observing her friend's expression, wondering if she was telling her the truth or if was everything only an act.

A glint appeared in her eyes as she thought that Ye Qing Xin was not faking it.

Jiang Liang Chen probably thought that her friend would not notice anything, but Ye Qing Xin has been observing her through the corner of her eyes. Therefore, Ye Qing Xin noticed the slight change in her friend's expression.

Ye Qing Xin was curious to know just how she got close to Jiang Liang Chen.

Everyone around them said that they were best friends since college, but Ye Qing Xin noticed that sometimes, the way Jiang Liang Chen was looking at her was a little strange.

It felt as if their relationship was not as everyone had thought.

"Then, Xin Xin, what are you planning to do?" Jiang Liang Chen spoke. "How long do you plan to postpone the wedding?"

"I don't know. My dad had discussed it with Tian Yi's father last night and they both agreed to postpone it until the end of the year," Ye Qing Xin said. "I guess that I still have a few months to figure out what I wanted to do."

Jiang Liang Chen heaved a sigh. "That's good."

Ye Qing Xin took the cup of tea in front of her and took a seat. When she looked at Jiang Liang Chen again, Ye Qing Xin did not miss the hesitant look on her friend's face. "What's wrong with you? Do you have something to say to me?"

Jiang Liang Chen jumped in surprise. Then, she shook her head. "No. There's nothing."

Ye Qing Xin observed her for a while and thought that the look on Jiang Liang Chen's face did not seem as if there was nothing.

However, since Jiang Liang Chen was not willing to say anything, Ye Qing Xin did not think that she should be a busybody and ask. "Alright then."

Seeing that Ye Qing Xin was not interested to ask made Jiang Liang Chen frustrated. She was hoping that Ye Qing Xin would ask about what was troubling her.

Now that Ye Qing Xin did not seem to mind it, how was she going to continue her plan?

Jiang Liang Chen stared at her friend for a long time, hoping that her friend would take the hint and ask. However, Ye Qing Xin continued to stay silent. Ye Qing Xin was enjoying the cookies and the tea that the auntie had served.

As time passed by, Jiang Liang Chen could no longer bear the silence.

"Xin Xin..." Jiang Liang Chen held Ye Qing Xin's hand and looked at her hesitantly. "Actually, I'm glad that you decided to postpone your wedding with Tian Yi."

Ye Qing Xin flashed a smile that did not reach her eyes. "Liang Chen, I know that you are my best friend. You're the one who understands me well. You also know that it is hard to marry a stranger."

Jiang Liang Chen was a little speechless as those were not the words she expected to hear from Ye Qin Xin. The matter that she wanted to tell her friend slipped off her mind temporarily. "Xin Xin, there is something that I have to tell you. This is about your relationship with Tian Yi."

Her eyes lit up. Ye Qing Xin was suddenly curious to know what Jiang Liang Chen wanted to tell her.

"I... I hope that you would not mention to Tian Yi that I told you about this," Jiang Liang Chen spoke. "But a few days before your accident, Tian Yi and you had a big fight. It was the first time that I have seen you both fight this intensely. You left him during a dinner date and refused to talk to him for a few days."

"What was this fight about?"

Jiang Liang Chen continued to hesitate. "I think, Tian Yi saw you and Young Master Ren chatting and misunderstood that you were flirting with him."

Ye Qing Xin had more questions in her head. For example, who is this Young Master Ren?
