Chapter 247 - Bad friend (1/2)
Jun Cha took Su Bei's hands and gave it a gentle squeeze.
”Hm, that's why you're sad? Because the guy my little girl likes loves another person and that person is your best friend.”
Su Bei looked away and nodded.
”Does Yan Mei knows that the guy loves her? Does she also love him? Does she know that you love the guy?”
Jun Cha asked calmly, as she waited for Su Bei's reply.
Su Bei turned around to face her mother and furrowed her brows.
”No..I don't think so. She is happily married and seems to love her husband. And from how she talks I don't think she knows Leng Shao is in love with her. For her, he is her best friend and brother…”
Su Bei trailed off when she realized that she had been overreacting and shouldn't feel angry at her friend. A whole day has gone by since the incident and she hasn't even called her friend to ask how she was.
Even though she didn't know if the video was fake or true as a friend she should be there for her friend.
”Mama….”
Jun Cha sighed and petted Su Bei's hair.
”Don't tell me you were feeling hurt because you thought your best friend has betrayed you?”
Su Bei bowed her head in shame as she nodded.
”I was hurt. I thought she was just playing with me. She knew I clearly like Leng Shao so why would she play with my feelings like this. You should have seen the video mum. The people in the video look exactly like Yan Mei and Leng Shao. It's difficult not to believe the video!”
Su Bei retorted. All of this was difficult to take in.
Jun Cha raised her brows when she heard her daughter.
”Video? What video?” She asked clearly confused about what her daughter was talking about. She rarely listen to the news or look at the newspapers so she wasn't aware of the trending news in the country now.
”The video...I'm sure it's all over the news. You haven't seen it yet mum?”
Jun Cha shook her head. Su Bei quickly took her phone and switched it on. She froze when she saw the several missed calls from Leng Shao and Yan Mei.
She blinked and stared at her phone in her daze.
”Su Bei.” Her mother's soft voice snapped her out of her daze.
She looked up at her mother and looked down at her phone again. She turned on her data connection and searched Yan Mei's scandal. But nothing came up. It's like the news had disappeared out of thin air.
Su Bei looked at her mother. ”The news they have deleted it.”
Jun Cha nodded in understanding. ”So tell me, what happened?”
”While Yan Mei was gaving a speech a video started playing behind her. The video it was a s.e.x tape.”
Su Bei took a deep breath as she continued talking.
”It was a s.e.x tape between Yan Mei and a man. Leng Shao—the man that I like.”
Jun Cha frowned as she listened to her daughter. She had worked in the upper society as a maid for years so she knew not to be deceived by everything she sees or hears. People can do anything to destroy other people's life.
Also, something like this was quite common in the upper society.
”Are you sure the person in the video was your friend? She looked exactly like her?”
Su Bei nodded.
”Yes Mom. She looked exactly like Yan Mei. Even though Yan Mei's voice is more mature now you can clearly hear that the voice is hers. And the man looks exactly like Leng Shao.”
Jun Cha knitted her brows. She has met her daughter's friend on numerous occasions and Yan Mei sometimes secretly gives her money and let her promise her not to tell Su Bei. For this kind hearted woman, Jun Cha was fond of her.
She doesn't think that Yan Mei will be able to do something like this. The woman was too cold and proud to do such a lowly thing.
Also a smart woman who has been able to build a business from scratch wouldn't risk such a stain on her reputation. Unless….she has offended someone.
Jun Cha's years and experience in life made her more clear minded to think things through instead of believing the general public.
”Have you spoken to your friend? What did she say?”
Su Bei shook her head. ”No...I haven't.”
