Chapter 003

"Cut the crap, what do you want now?" The lady in the lime coloured office attire said with distain.

Li Meiying let the smile on her face drop as she smirked disdainfully at Fang Hui-Fen. Looking at the direction the car just went, her eyes portrayed a ice cellar amount of coldness as she squinted and the woman opposite herself. "oh nothing..." she answered as she came closer to Fang Hui-Fen then took her left hand and kissed the ring in her finger. Fang Hui-Fen hastily shook her hand away from Li Meiying with a disgusted look on her face. Li Meiying smiled and said "Nothing..... but to wear that ring on your finger." Then she left not leaving any time for Fang Hui-Fen to speak.

As expected, Fang Hui-Fen's expression was as dark as coal. She inhaled, repeatedly telling herself that Li Meiying was just a jealous bark no bite ***** but she couldn't help feeling scared. Her phone rang and she saw a message from Mu Xun reminding her to come to the meeting appointment. Fang Hui-Fen shook her head removing all unimportant thoughts as she went into work mode.

At jade spring palace

Inside of the seventh villa of jade spring palace, a young woman could be seen in front of a full length body mirror. The woman had beautiful soft brown hair, with ruby like red lips and a deep red body hugging dress. While women would more often goes for soft sunshine colours when trying to showcase their youthful side to them, wearing red was a colour that went more with passion and seduction.

The woman in front of the mirror had a small petite face with soft Korean features that shone with her eyes exuding her charm as a typical young Korean woman. She smiled at her reflection that would steal the breath away from any man.

As she was admiring herself, she heard a light door bell ring and she knew it was time for action. She put on an innocent expression as she went and opened the door.

As soon as the door was opened, Song jingli walked into the apartment with a cold expression on his face. "what's this about?" He asked with a frosty voice. Li Meiying shuddered at his voice and tears welled up in her eyes. "I'm sorry bro Song but that was the only thing I could say to be able to meet up with you." She inched closer to Song jingli with a pitiful expression. Under her little façade, she was gritting her teeth in annoyance. To think he cares about her that much. Song jingli's frown softened looking at her but his voice was still hoarse.

"Now that I'm here, what do you want?" Song jingli asked with clear expiration in his voice. Li Meiying bit her lips and balled up her fists and she said with a slightly cracked voice "Brother Su, are you sure you don't hate me? is it such a bad thing to meet up with you. For a chat maybe?" She looked up to Song jingli's eyes, looking especially pitiful. Song jingli looked away trying to avoid looking at her sparkling eyes. He distanced himself from her as he said "Li Meiying, we really shouldn't be meeting up like this." "Why? it's not like we're doing anything odd. I already can't be with you romantically but why can't we be friends either? it really not fair...." Li Meiying said while sobbing softly. Song jingli suddenly felt the urge to want to hug and comfort her but his rationality kept him. He sighed as he said "Miss Li, please for the sake of rationale and trust can you please stop contacting me? I really don't want to be involved in an ambiguous relationship with you that would in anyway cause any harm to my marriage. My wife is already having doubts about our relationship and any more unnecessary meet-ups would severely put a toll on my relationship. can you please understand?"

Song jingli was trying very hard to get Li Meiying to understand his stance but the latter just kept sobbing. Soon enough, she rose her head and wiped her tears. she smiled at Song jingli sadly before she said "Brother Su, since it has already come to you thinking I would want to ruin your marriage just by wanting to be friends with you, will you say you've ever trusted me?" Song jingli felt at a loss. he thought he had finally got to her but she just gave him a question. he couldn't answer her question at all. Of course he trusted her, but he didn't trust himself to be able to stay focused on his married life if they were too close.

Seeing Song jingli's silence, Li Meiying but her lips in an aggrieved manner but then said."Bro jingli, if we can't be at least friends anymore, can you please stay a little longer and have a drink with me?" Song jingli was about to refuse but he heard her speak again "... unless, you just can't wait to break off all ties with me." She sounded aggrieved as her tears welled up again. Song jingli sighed as he sat down on the sofa on front of him. "Just some tea, I'm leaving after." Li Meiying smiled happily as she made her way to the kitchen. On the way, Song jingli didn't notice the dark look that crossed her eyes.
