CHAPTER 271
"First I was not staying with you and did not come to visit you or something. Secondly, it was a life and death situation, I needed to maintain secrecy. But this case is different on a whole new level."
"Whatever."
"Do not do that with me, Yin Lifen. You are here because of me, even if you do not want to stay with me, have the decency to at least inform me that you are here or there. I would feel at ease knowing you are okay."
"I am a big girl, Li Jing. I can take care of myself by myself."
"I know. I know. I know that and more. But listen to yourself, where you okay not knowing where I was after my break up with Duan Tian?"
"No. And now you know how it feels."
"This is not a BLOODY PAYBACK, Yin Lifen. I told you, it was something that needed my utter most secrecy. Not some child’s play or me having fun."
"You were staying with a guy and you call that not some child’s play."
"I was staying with Ye Cheng and he needed my help. He was hurt and you know the issue he has been having so what is your deal?"
"Nothing."
"No, that is not nothing, Yin Lifen. What is wrong with you? Why are you being like this in the first place?"
"It is nothing, Li Jing. I am not just in the mood to be talked to like I am a child."
"I am sorry but you presented yourself in such a way like you are a child. I only called to ask you for something. Anyways it is clear you are in no mood to be part of anything that has to do with me."
"What is it? What do you need my help for?"
"Hell no. You just literally spelt it out that it isn’t my business anything that has to do with your life. In the same vein, I would keep my personal issues to myself."
"That is not what I meant, Li Jing."
"Listen to yourself, Yin Lifen. Am I a kid to you? You just started something I least expected from you. It can be someone else but not the person I consider to be my very best of friend. I feel so strupid even bothering with you right now."
"Hey Li Jing calm down."
"No, I am calm. Perfectly calm in fact. This has being what it has been. You being jealous about something that I do not know about.
"I am not jealous, Li Jing. Why would I be?" Yin Lifen defend calmly.
"As me again! If you of all people can say that about me on my introductory party night, then I do not know what to say."
Li Jing inhaled a deep breath and closed her eyes. That was when it dawned on her what Yin Lifen said before.
"I do not understand, were you expecting me to be perfectly free on the day when I was being introduced to everyone and being a part of a new family? You were supposed to be my support but you weren’t there. Rather you were busy having fun with a guy. Yet I never complained."
"Li Jing."
"No. You just crossed a point in my life you shouldn’t have crossed."
"I am..."
"Save it. The deed has already been done. You cannot change back what you have said or done. Have fun wherever you are. Stay as long as you want or wish to stay and please, kindly please do not come close since I cannot control you."
"I did not mean it that way."
"Oh yes you did. I am happy you stated clearly that my caring for you is just a big mistake on my part and you do not need it, after all you can take care of yourself by yourself."
Yin Lifen could not believe how quickly everything had turn sour. "Are you leaving me, Li Jing?"
"You stated it yourself, Yin Lifen. I am not worth you having your time for you that is why. I have other things to do that needs my input and careful thinking. At least I still have people who care about me and believe in me for something. So yes, I am leaving you. The last thing I want is enough bad energy around me."
"Li Jing!"
Sniff!
Li Jing was about to retaliate and warn her when she heard her friend began to sob on the phone. Even she herself was angry at the whole issue and Li Jing was more than ready to caught the call.
But on a second thought, it was the first time in a long while that she ever heard or saw Yin Lifen cry. In fact she had been the stronger one in their friendship, she would always stand and protect Li Jing from those bullying her and be strong.
So for her to be crying, it was either something bad had happened to her that made speak to Liu Jing that way or it is that Li Jing’s agreement to leave her was what was causing her to tear up.
Due to this fact, she did not have it in her to cut the call on her friend but that did not mean she wanted to talk to her either.
"Li Jing, I am sorry, but don’t leave me alone. Ahh heheee...boohoo..."
Li Jing shook her head and massaged her temples with her fingers. Still she did not utter a word to her friend.
"I am sorry. Li Jing, I am sorry. I never meant to be mad at you."
"Yin Lifen, you meant it, if not you would not have reacted that way to my harmless simple question. I was worried about you. Yes I know I did not call more often but it has been a week plus now and I haven’t seen you or heard from you. Put yourself in my shoes."
"I did and I am still doing it now. I would rather you scold me than you leave me, Li Jing. Do not go, do not end our friendship."
