Chapter 640 - Friend Zoned (1/2)

Shopping mall.

”Why would you do that?” Yumi asked.

Mian chuckled and helplessly shook her head, ”Because your brother is naive and shy. His whole body turns red even if I stare at him for more than thirty seconds.”

Yumi chuckled and asked, ”So did you ask him?”

”Ask what?” Mian asked.

”Whether he will propose to you or you have to do that as well?” Yumi asked.

Mian chuckled and said, ”Well chances are that I have to do it. Not that I mind but I'll be happy and at peace if he does it.”

”Yumi, Mian.” Linyang shouted before rushing towards them.

”Ahhhhhh-” Mian squealed before giving Linyang a hug.

”I missed you both so much.” Linyang excitedly exclaimed.

”I missed you too.”

”How can you both hug without me?” Yumi pouted her lips and complained.

Pulling Yumi for a group, the three best friends hugged each other to their heart's content.

”Alright let's go and eat something first, I am hungry.” Rubbing her stomach which was growling, Linyang grinned.

…..

Inside a cafe.

After placing their order, Mian asked Linyang, ”When did you come back?”

”I came back yesterday night.” Linyang said.

”Hmm how was your meeting?” Yumi asked.

Linyang was an architect and owned her own company. She often traveled overseas to attend meetings personally and never relied on anyone.

”It was okay but-”

”But what?” Mian asked.

”Yumi, I lied to you.” Linyang confessed. She didn't want to but she also couldn't keep it in.

Yumi raised her eyebrows and asked, ”What do you mean?”

”I….ummmm…..actually I had a meeting in country C and not in the States. Look don't get mad okay? I know you have this thing with country C so I did not tell you about it.” Linyang lowered her head and sighed.

Keeping quiet for quite sometime, Yumi asked, ”Did you see him?”

Linyang sighed and nodded her head. ”I swear I didn't want to. In fact I didn't even want to see his face and I ignored him too but then he called me out. I told him that I didn't want to talk to him but he said that for old times sake he wants to have at least a cup of coffee with me, so I agreed.”

Pausing for a while, Linyang continued, ”He was very happy and also said that he was glad that he at least met one of us. He said that he misses everyone. He asked about everyone, Zian, Mian, brother Liang and you. I was about to talk to him about that matter but he received an emergency call and left. But before leaving he gave me his card and said that everyone should stay in touch with him.”

Taking out the card from her bag, Linyang placed it on the table. ”Look Yumi I am totally on your side but even after seeing Zixin after so many years, he still seemed the same. I could still feel and see the change in his expression whenever I mentioned your name. He seemed exactly the same to me.”
