”Liling, how could all these happen and you couldn't even tell anyone, not even me? ”

Xin Yong complained bitterly, she was soft hearted, such that when Liling narrated her story, she had started crying.

They sat under a shade outside the hospital, Xin Yong's hankie was almost soaked with tears.

She couldn't even believe that all those things had happened and Liling was still strong.

”Yong Yong, you stop crying, I don't want to cry too”

Liling replied as she wiped Xin Yong's eyes.

”Liling, you're the strongest person I've ever met, I should be the one consoling you instead of the other way round.. ”

”Haha, I've cried so much that I can't cry again and I don't think there is anything on planet earth that could make me cry this much again”

”Liling, I'm so sorry for not being there for you, what kind of a friend am I?

Xin Yong apologized and leaned over to hug Liling tightly, not wanting to let go.

”It's okay, it's past, let's face the future, that's what's important now. ”

After sometime, Xin Yong put herself together and Liling continued her story, at the end Xin Yong was left mouth opened.

”Don't tell me it's the same Chang Ming?, what the! and I thought of him as a gentleman!, and Mr Liu Wei, he's so adorable and reasonable.

Liling, such men don't exist everywhere, you just complete your part of the deal, and Jin Yue said that he likes you, who knows... ”

”Xin Yong!! this is business, and it's strictly formal. Don't bring love into it”

Liling cut her off immediately.

”But like seriously, I don't know what you are afraid of, how can you just count off all men, just like that!.

Jin Yue is different, and I'm sure Liu Wei is too...”

”Xin Yong dear, I myself can't even point out my main reason, because obviously they are many.

But have you ever thought of the implications of after falling in love with Jin Yue, you realize it wasn't real?

The problem is not about me loving someone, it's about that person not loving me too. I don't want to make mistakes, so it's better not to try at all”

Xin Yong thought for a while, her mind wandered around what Liling just said.
