Chapter 7: Jiang Li is a good actor. (2)
Yu Zi Fei also looked at me with an unpredictable expressions.
Jiang Li’s one hand grabbed my waist, one hand pulled my arm, leaned over my ear, in a mocking tone with a trace of sarcasm said: "your ex, Guan?"
I tilted my head, stared at Jiang Li’s magnified, because of close distance, face, determinedly pulled out a big smile at him, said: "Could you help me a bit, we need to demonstrate a happy expression, okay?"
Jiang Li ‘soulfully’ replied: "I have always acted happy enough; only you keep going into daze."
I took his hand, bite the bullet*, persistently led him towards Yu Zhi Fei’s table. I had always liked to resolve the most painful thing clean first, in order to enjoy the remaining time happily with a peace of mind or else I would keep thinking about the upcoming pain, fun in the beginning would turn into agony.
* doing an unpleasant task
Jiang Li held my arm, went in front of Yu Zhi Fei. He retrieved his smiling face, holding up a full glass of wine for Yu Zhi Fei: "Thank you." Then, looked up and drained the glass.
I felt his "Thank you" might have many hidden meanings, such as thank you for helping me by taking care of my girl, or a thank you for leaving her for me, however this idea mainly sounded arrogant and proud, anyways the point was to create hatred in the opponent’s heart, and so I was really satisfied. I admit that I had a lot of bad points, but I really did not want to see ‘too splendid’ Yu Zhi Fei.
I did not dare to look at Yu Zhi Fei, was still tilting my head to look at Jiang Li who appeared very gentle, devoted and affectionate at the moment.
Later Jiang Li told me; at that time he in fact wanted to specially greet Yu Zhi Fei and congratulate him for sticking to a girl like me ....I was so embarrassed.
There were a few people sitting at the table who knew about my and Yu Zhi Fei’s past, they also did not say much, one after another lifted their glass of wine, striving to change the topic. A rigid smile was stuck on my face then turned around to go down to the next table, almost fleeing.
Jiang Li took my hand, leisurely walking beside me and whispered: "You're really boring."
He probably must have thought that I deliberately invited Yu Zhi Fei, and then put on a show right in front of him; God knew how much I did not want to see him! I turned back and aggressively glared at He Zhi, this demon girl must be playing games, at this point He Zhi’s eyes wavered, peering completely guilty... ..Good, she should now wait for me to return and punish her!
Since I had already met Yu Zhi Fei, so when I saw Xue Hong sitting on the next table, my sentiments had already calmed down.
Xue Hong, one of the few female friends I was stuck together with in four years of college, I had bared my whole heart to her, and subsequently the night before my wedding she successfully captured my fiancé, Yu Zhi Fei.
I turned to glare at He Zhi again; she definitely had called Xue Hong here to provoke her.
He Zhi stared back at me, why was it me who was being provoked, how?
I did not say anything, grabbed a glass of wine and clinked glasses with Xue Hong. Then gave the glass to He Zhi who was standing beside me, letting her drink it for me, ah!
He Zhi was also unyielding, although her alcohol tolerance was not very high but wine also can’t be considered as a hard drink. The bottom line was that she was functioning as a substitute drinker for me so she was taking turn around to drink toasts.
Had to say Jiang Li’s mind was really sharp, this time he looked at I and Xue Hong and realized our abnormal relationship, waited till He Zhi finished her drink, then raised his glass up, unintentionally swept a glance at Yu Zhi Fei, then began to move in and toast Xue Hong.
Xue Hong’s face reddened a little bit ...... Jiang Li you’re too bad!
Yu Zhi Fei and Xue Hong were sitting at two different tables, stating that they had already separated, at this time Jiang Li gave a new glance to Yu Zhi Fei, clearly screaming in the direction of Xue Hong: ‘see, rushed to snatch the man, in the end he is not yours, now you have lost your friend and your love, deserve it?
I must admit, though Jiang Li’s behavior could not be counted as gentlemanly, but I still liked it....
After completing giving respect at Xue Hong’s table, Jiang Li grabbed my hand, leaned in a little and whispered: “Are you satisfied yet?”
I smiled at him solemnly and replied: "Thank you."
Jiang Li ignored my gratitude, impatiently said: "if you are satisfied, then feel free to give me a little diligence, distracted at your own wedding is a shameful thing."
I nodded in coordination. Even though Jiang Li attitude towards me made me really unhappy, but today he gave me enough face, if I was left alone to face Yu Zhi Fei, I would have trembled while talking, fortunately today we did not say anything evil in front of the other two, but our aura had totally defeated them. Naturally, this thing, this aura had no relationship with me, rather it was mainly Jiang Li’s aura that overwhelmed the two of them.

ReplyDeleteNotes, notes, all my notes----!
I understand what he zhi is thinking, showing off that xiao yan is getting married, and to a guy better than he is,at that, but....well, this could be considered a form of closure for xiao yan,even if she herself doesn't realise it. Anyway, xiao yan's really nice, and her interactions with jiang li are gold! Although, i'm really curious as to whether her ex had truly loved her...it's ok, xiao yan, that guy has no worth! You deerve so much better---! And...the girl who stole her fiance is here too? What----?! Oh woah, this marriage is too dramatic, what is this....! Well, yes, closure, closure for xiao yan...! So that she can start her new life! Lol jiang li! Ahaha, so cunning!
