185 We congratulate you (1/2)
''Where have you been? I've been searching for you all over the place.'' Xin Yong asked, looking concerned. She sat down beside her, Liling had chosen a hidden corner in the hall, not wanting to attract any unnecessary attention.
''You did not walk in with him, right?” she asked again, a frown on her face.
''I did, didn't you see me?'' Liling answered, trying to sound as believing as ever.
''Actually I did see you, but when you were trying to escape as the camera was focused on Liu Wei!''
Liling rolled her eyes, seeing that she was not able to escape the wary eyes of her best friend.
''I did not want to.'' She replied, looking away. Her eyes scanned the crowd, searching for Liu Wei , she spotted him sitting at the VIP area and almost at the same time, their eyes met. Liling blushed as he mouthed a ”HI”, she did the same too, and they both smiled.
''Why? Did you realize what you've just done? This was the perfect opportunity to show that Richen that she is nowhere compared to you but you threw it all away.
You should have seen how she was flaunting her dress on the red carpet, my God, it can't even compare to your hankie!'' Xin Yong cursed beneath her breath. Her face was already red, showing her fume. Liling looked away from Liu Wei and turned to look at her friend again.
''There will be another time, okay? Right now, what we should be concerned about is how this party will begin, I'm so excited!'' Liling giggled lightly, showing off her perfect set of white teeth.
''What do I do with you?''
''My, my, my, what do we have here…''
The two girls were interrupted by a bustling and well familiar voice. Liling's gaze shifted from her friend to the direction of the sound.
There she was, standing hands at akimbo, staring down at two of them with a mockery smirk on her lips.
''Oh My…'' Richen burst into a hysterical laughter, which turned her face to a shade of red.
''No, seriously you guys should tell me what's happening here. Liling, are you seriously that shameless? After being evicted, you still summoned courage to attend the welcome party, maybe thinking that a miracle will happen?''
Richen continued laughing; she shook her head unbelievably as she stared down at the two of them. Xin Yong's face was already red with irritation. She glared at Richen and immediately wanted to retort but Liling nudged her with her arm.
Richen laughed alone as the two girls watched her and when she saw that they were not going to respond to her, she continued talking.
''Well, it's not a bad idea to act as an escort, you may never know who may be willing to let you climb unto their bed again and get you back into the industry, as a dancer or a makeup artist. You never can tell how your luck will shine, so do enjoy your time here.''
''Why did you let that bitch insult you like that and walk away. What is even wrong with you this night? Are you sick?, just talk to me.''
Xin Yong asked looking confounded. Liling turned to look at her angry face and giggled.
''There is a wise saying that goes like this, 'the real fool isn't the one who talks nonsense, but the one who replies to his nonsense even when he knows he'll be wasting his time'.''Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
There was a second pause, after which the both of them bursted into an uncontrollable laughter.
They were cut off by the MC who just walked up the stage and began to address the crowd.
