254 Everything would be fine (1/2)

Jin Yue sat in his car silent, devastated and distraught.

The car was not hot but he did not know why he felt so stuffy. He undid two buttons of his shirt but it was not helping, he wound down the glass but it got worse even. He was sweating and his fingers trembled.

He placed his head on the steering and closed his eyes.

She did not want to speak to him. She looked like she did not even want to have anything to do with him, how was he going to get her to listen to what he had to say when she clearly didn't want to see him again?

Jin Yue did not realize he had been crying until he raised his head from the steering.

She did not look mad when she saw him, No, she looked very calm_ and that was scarier.

If she had screamed at him and asked him to leave and never return, it would have been better because at least he would know she was still hurt and she still felt something for him, but she did not. She just glanced at him as though she really did not know him.

Jin Yue sighed exasperatedly. He could not leave, how would he leave when he had not even spoken to her?

He was going to wait till she came out and he was going to follow her home.

Jin Yue took out his phone and called Liu Wei, the phone rang for a few times before Liu Wei picked it.

Jin Yue was quiet for a while before he forced his mouth to speak.

''I've seen her.''

Liu Wei was quiet. 'Seeing her' meant many things, it meant that she had lost a baby and she had tried killing herself which altogether made things extremely bad.

No-one talked for a moment, Liu Wei did not want to ask how things went over the phone he already knew from his tone that everything did not go so well. So he did not pry.

''Okay, I'll let Liling know when I get back.''

''Yeah, I'll call you later. ''

Jin Yue said, and Liu Wei understood that he needed some alone time, so he ended the call.

…

''Liling let's play a game.''

Yan Ran brought a board of chess and walked to where Liling was in the living room. She smiled brightly as she placed the chess board on the table.

''Ah, I'm not good with chess. ''

Liling sighed as she sat upright on her seat.

''Oh don't worry, I'm not good with chess either. ''

The both of them giggled as Liling helped her arrange the board.

''You go first.''

Yan Ran said with a smile.

Since she apologized, Yan Ran had been very nice. Liling knew it was not easy to let go of a crush, but it was good to see that she had decided to put the past behind her.

''So what would your week be like?''

Yan Ran asked mid game.

''Mmm, I would be performing in a concert. ''

''Wow! You are so popular now, I mean, you are everywhere on the news. Before the end of this year, you would be so big! ''

Liling chuckled and shook her head.

''I bet. Which day is the concert? I would like to buy a ticket. ''
