“Chen Qian, you can tell me everything about it. I’m your boyfriend now. I have the right to know your previous life. Could you tell me about it? I want to share your suffering. Let’s get out of the past together, okay?”
In the dim light, looking at the beauty in his arms, Jiang Jingcheng felt it was the happiest moment in his life. He just wanted to live with her, take care of her, and help her solve the troubles in life.
“Actually, we used to be best friends. I thought she was so pure that I could tell her all my secrets, and I did so. We used to be friends without any secrets. I used to treat her as my lifelong friend, but everything was my fantasy.” Chen Qian lowered her voice. She rested her head on Jiang Jingcheng’s strong thigh and looked straight ahead, recalling the past.
“Then how did you become like this? What happened? Is there any misunderstanding?” Jiang Jingcheng stared at Chen Qian.
“Do you know she was married before? She has an ex-husband.”
“That’s…amazing! Has she ever been married? I can’t believe that. She never tells us anything about her past. That’s why we know nothing about her marriage.” Jiang Jingcheng was surprised. He thought that divorced women always lost their confidence of love and they would not have any hope for love again. But Gu Yan was not like this. Her love to Mo Yichen was different to the ordinary love. She seemed to love him thoroughly.
“I know. She looks innocent and shows people with pure looks, and no one can really see through her heart. Even Mo Yichen who is an indifferent man can be deceived by her. How could you not be fooled by her? She won’t let all of you know about her previous marriage. I was too naive!”
“Actually, she doesn’t really look like a bad person. She is very friendly to anyone in our office. Everyone in our studio has always praised her as a good leader. Although we have been a little busy recently and we have been working day and night, she has been working overtime with us, inspiring and caring for everyone. She cares about everyone in the office!” Jiang Jingcheng took Chen Qian’s words with a grain of salt. Here was the fact. He could not believe that Gu Yan was such a bad woman.
“That’s why I call her a smart woman. Secretly harming others will also make the victim feel that she is a good person who gives a hand when others fail!” Chen Qian pretended to tremble with fear. Thanks to the fact that she read many novels and watched TV shows, she could make up such groundless lies!
“At that time, we were still good friends. Gu Yan, her husband, Yichen and me often had meal together. I was happy at those days. We chatted about everything as if the whole world was ours.”
Through the dim light, Jiang Jingcheng saw that Chen Qian’s expression gradually changed from happiness to sadness. Even though she was still smiling, her voice was heavy with sorrow. Jiang Jingcheng could not help feeling sad for her.
“Then everything changed. We cannot go back to the past. I lost not only my love, but my intimate friend whom I could tell everything to. But I was glad to know what a shameless woman she was! A wolf in sheep’s clothing!” She said in a rapider tone, lowering her head and stopping looking at Jiang Jingcheng.
“What happened?” Jiang Jingcheng asked.
The sky was getting gloomier outside. The lightning flashed and the light rain began to hit the doors and windows. Jiang Jingcheng held Chen Qian’s hand and his strength was getting stronger and stronger!
Chen Qian glanced at Jiang Jingcheng, deliberately lowered her tone, and remained silent for a long time…
“In fact, those are unforgettable memories for me. I thought we were going to be so happy all our lives, but everything seemed to change from that day. Everything was different! Everything changed greatly. Too suddenly…”
“That day? What happened?” Jiang Jingcheng’s intense curiosity forced him to keep asking. He wanted to know what a terrible thing had made his dream girl become like this. She had lost her confidence in life, and was so depressed and sad every day. What was worse, when she heard Gu Yan’s name, she would become irritable.
“To be honest, I don’t know what happened. She never told me her real secrets. At first, I thought she was just shy and introverted. I thought I was her best friend in her mind. However, I thought too highly of myself. I’m just a pawn in her eyes, small and poor.”
“Before that day, I knew she was in a bad mood, and she had been depressed for a few days. I didn’t know how to comfort her. All I could do was to ask her to come out to relax in my free time…” Chen Qian’s brain worked quickly. She was proud when she made up the story. Even she almost believed such a vivid story.
“Then?” Jiang Jingcheng asked again.
“One day, she came to my house with disheveled clothes and a red mark on her face. She told me that she was divorced. It seemed that someone had slapped her. She was really poor and I let her stay at my house. Then we lived together and at that time, Yichen visited me sometimes and bought me some snacks.”
“During that period, many people came to ask Gu Yan for debts. It was me who stopped them. She didn’t have a job at that time, so I helped her pay off those debts. To thank me for that, she cleaned the room and cooked meals every day.”
“Poor girl! She was abandoned by her husband, and had to pay the debts. But she was lucky to have a friend like you.” Jiang Jingcheng felt sorry for Chen Qian’s puffy eyes. He thought his girlfriend was kind, simple and not scheming.
“In fact, I didn’t need her to do these things. In my opinion, it’s normal for friends to help each other. What’s more, we were friends without secrets. Her experience just broke my heart. She shouldn’t have been kicked out like that, so I went to her husband and wanted to ask him why.”
Jiang Jingcheng just put his arm around Chen Qian, cuddled her soft body, and gave her silent comfort. He touched her hair softly with his cheeks. Her hair was soft and smelled fragrant. Jiang Jingcheng could not help kissing her hair on the forehead.
What Jiang Jingcheng did surprised Chen Qian and made her feel dizzy. A nerve in her body suddenly tightened. It was the first time that a man had ever treated her so gently!
