“You came all the way here just to apologize to me?”
Xiao Xue immediately nodded vigorously and asked solemnly, “I’m sorry! Can you forgive me?”
“Silly, why should I be angry with you?” Yun Shishi hooked the corners of her lips faintly and said resignedly, “I’m not angry with you; I just felt aggravated for you. What I did last night was to give you some good advice as a friend. I understood your position when you couldn’t accept it at once. After all, I can see that you’ve poured your heart and soul into the relationship. When I personally told you that the man you love so much had cheated on you, and then I counted his shortcomings one by one, you ran away because you couldn’t accept the truth. You’re only trying to protect yourself from being hurt; that’s all.”
By then, her best friend’s eyes became even redder as tears poured forth furiously.
“Why do you have to say all that?” grumbled the woman. “I’d rather you scold me, and scold me so hard I could feel better about this, but why do you have to be so gracious with your words when I’ve been ignorant and foolish? I made you angry; why are you so nice to me still?”
The missy’s disguised stubbornness collapsed once and for all as she embraced her best friend with tears flowing like a raging torrent in her eyes.
“Shishi, I really hate you! You’re the younger one here, but you’re always so mature and tolerant of my mistakes. I’d rather you scold me, and scold me hard so I could wake up from my foolishness! I’d rather you scold me for being blind and confused…”
“Alright, alright…”
The actress suddenly raised her hand and gently caressed the back of her friend’s head like a mature and trustworthy man, comforting and coaxing the latter like a loving man.
Even Mu Xi, who was witnessing the scene at one side, felt her charge to be exuding a boyfriend’s charm through and through! The actress made her feel so secure and safe!
The missy broke into a louder wail upon her best friend’s comfort, and tears flowed down her cheeks unceasingly.
The woman could no longer suppress her heartbreak. As she cried without restraint, she released all her painful emotions completely.
Since she cut off her ties with her man last night, she had pretended to be calm and cool when she reached home, but the whole night, as the rain fell continuously outside the window, her heart felt cloudy. She had burrowed herself in bed, under the quilt, the whole time and cried for a long while before dozing off lethargically and drained.
She wanted to pull herself together and put the love affair completely behind her, but it was not something she could immediately do when she had poured so much of herself into the relationship.
As such, she could only try to look the part of being indifferent and nonchalant about the whole affair.
However, under the actress’s gentle coaxing and comforting, her sadness could no longer be concealed, and she let go of herself completely.
After crying bitterly for a long time, Xiao Xue’s emotions finally settled down.
Yun Shishi then only learned that her best friend swiftly broke up with the man last night.
Although it was not explicitly stated, the hard slap she gave him last night was sufficient to show her firm attitude.
The man also did not call her following that confrontation.
After all, he held no feelings for her and had only gotten together with her to patronize his parents’ wishes. Just like what he had said, it was not easy finding a marriage partner whom his parents found agreeable.
This was the only reason he had stayed with her.
The missy had given up on him completely at that point.
Still, it was a bitter pill to swallow when she realized that she had been cheated on and fooled!
