Chapter 158 - What are friends for? (1/2)

”Oh,” Ying Sheng said nonchalantly.

”It's nice to see Liam care for a girl. He must really like you!” Dong Yishan said while glancing at Ying Sheng with a smile on her face.

No. It's not true. How can Liam like her when she was a mess. She was sure no one would want a broken girl like her. Also, Liam likes another person.

Suddenly Ying Sheng arched her brows. Can Dong Yishan be the girl Liam likes? After all, she knew how it was like to be in unrequited love.

Ying Sheng flinched at the thought that the girl might be Dong Yishan.

”No, Liam already likes somebody else. Also, I have someone I like.”

”He likes someone?” Dong Yishan asked as she parked the car into the parking shot.

Ying Sheng shrugged ignoring her question and got out of the car. They walked into the huge mall and they made their way to the clothes store.

***********

Ying Sheng was growing seriously bored. It's been two hours of nonstop picking of clothes and trying it on. Ying Sheng had no idea of the clothes Dong Yishan picked. Her head was literally buried on her phone the all time. Letting Dong Yishan picked the clothes.

Now she was f.u.c.k.i.n.g tired and the girl was still adamant about buying lots of clothes.  Ying Sheng didn't understand some women obsession about shopping. Why go through all these hassles?!

Dong Yishan had made them buy from lot of stores all kinds of designer brand and now they were holding tons of bags. Ying Sheng kept looking around.

She felt her image would be destroyed if someone saw her holding shopping bags.

”Can we now eat? I would faint any moment from hunger.” Ying Sheng said faking exhaustion.

”Fine, let's take a few break and continue later.” Dong Yishan said.

Did this crazy woman say and continue later? Ying Sheng took a deep breath and nodded her head. She was afraid she might snapped at her.

The few hours she has spent with Dong Yishan she realized she was really a sweet girl.

They entered a cafe not far from the current store they were and ordered what they wanted to eat.

Ying Sheng tapped her feet impatiently as they waited for their food to arrive. The food arrived a few minutes and she dug in.

”So tell me about yourself, Ying Sheng. You seem like an interesting person.”

Ying Sheng looked up at Dong Yishan and saw her eyes flickering with curiosity.

”You don't really know me?” Ying Sheng asked surprised. This is the first time she has met someone from high society who doesn't know her.

From her conversation she learned that Dong Yishan comes from a family of miners. Her family dealt with everything that women loved.

From diamond, gold, bauxite, gemstones. Name it. So they were really rich but surprisingly she was too sweet and humble to be from a rich home.

Ying Sheng wondered where Liam met such wealthy friends. First his friend owned one of the most expensive restaurant in town and the other was the heiress of a mining empire.

”No? Sorry but I traveled to Australia a few years ago. I just came back.” Dong Yishan said looking at Ying Sheng.

”Hmm. ” Ying Sheng finally understood why she didn't know her.

”Nothing interesting about me at all. I'm just the monster parents tell their kids to hide away from.”

Ying Sheng said flatly hoping she wouldn't push the subject.

”Are you serious? Or you are joking again?” Ying Sheng smirked at her.

”What do you think?”

”Oh, I think you're such an cool person and also beautiful at the same time. I totally love your tattoo!”

Ying Sheng froze at her words. She was flattered by her compliment because everyone looks at her with disgust when they see her tattoo and the way she dresses.

”Thank you?” Ying Sheng said more in the form of a question. She didn't know what else to say.

”Don't thank me Ying Sheng. What are friends for?” She said with a warm smile.
