Shen Zhilie felt a little ridiculous and laughed. “It’s not because of her that we can be together.”

Ye Qianqian was so angry that she felt as if she could not breathe. Casting her towel aside, she said, “You don’t get anything! Do you know why she is my best friend?”

Shen Zhilie raised his eyebrows. It seemed as if he was ready for the details.

“When I was a freshman, my grandmother was in poor health. My dad and grandfather took out their lifelong savings to treat her. At that point in time, it could be said that our family had nothing at all. Half a semester had already passed by then, and my dad could not give me any allowance. It was Fang Tongtong who helped me out.”

Shen Zhilie was silent.

“Back then, I could not even afford to eat. I had to work part-time while I studied, and I had to mail a portion of the salary from my part-time job back home. I developed a stomach ailment because I was starving and almost had to quit school because I could no longer bear with it. Afterward, it was Tongtong who gave me $200 so that I could eat properly. In the second semester, she even loaned the money from her part-time job to me so that I could pay my school fees.”

As Ye Qianqian said this, she felt her heart ache.

As she looked at Shen Zhilie, she continued, “If it wasn’t for Tongtong, I probably would have quit school. If I had quit school, it would have been impossible for me to find a job here at Eurasian Comics right after graduation. I wouldn’t have met Lili, not to mention you. So, it is all thanks to Tongtong that we can be together.”

As Shen Zhilie listened to the series of causes and effects, he became even more silent.

When Ye Qianqian saw his reaction, she resumed and said, “Tongtong treats me very well, so I’ve always treated her as my bestie. Throughout these years, she has always been at home. We spend less time together than apart. I hardly have a chance to repay her kindness. It’s only a set of pajamas, so don’t be angry, alright?”

Even if Shen Zhilie wanted to be angry, he couldn’t do so now.

As he looked at Ye Qianqian, he pursed his lips tightly. “When we went to Venice, you brought back a bunch of presents. Were they all for her?”

“Yeah... They were. Actually, I wanted to ask her along for the trip to Venice. I didn’t expect that I would twist my ankles. So, I didn’t manage to go, and the ticket expired.”

“But she didn’t visit you when your ankle was injured.”

“That’s because she’s busy in her shop. How would she be free to visit me? I was the one who told her not to come.”

“Isn’t she busy now?”

Ye Qianqian became silent. She could not find a way to reply to him.

Shen Zhilie sighed softly and felt a little helpless. “I never believed in things like this.”

“Like what?”

“Fate. This is fate. Even if Fang Tongtong did not help you back then, I believe that we would still be able to meet via other means.”

“But this is how it is right now. Do you dare to say that this is not because of Tongtong?”

“This is predestined. This is how our life should be, and it is not because of anyone,” Shen Zhilie said in disagreement. “The reason why something happens is that it is fated to happen. Don’t be too caught up by the past. People change.”

Ye Qianqian was displeased. She looked at Shen Zhilie and angrily said, “Forget it. I’ll go and blow my hair dry. I can’t be bothered with you.”

Shen Zhilie was speechless. After he turned his computer off, he snuck under the covers.

When Ye Qianqian came back into the room, he grabbed hold of her.

When he hugged Ye Qianqian like that, she immediately knew that he was up to no good.

She squirmed for a moment and gently said, “There’s someone else in the house. Don’t fool around.”

Shen Zhilie closed his eyes and threw his leg over her to hug her. “Let’s sleep.”

Ye Qianqian was very sleepy, so she quickly drifted off into a slumber.
