Novel Bin Chapter 85 - Big Black Hole Belly!
In the small tea room---
Yang Lingsi brought in lunch and placed it on the small table and said, "Young miss, before young master left, he left instructions that you must eat lunch"
Yang Lingsi was afraid that Jingyi Wang would reprimand her. If he found out Xiao li skipped lunch, so she quickly brought her lunch to eat.
Only after looking at the small table did Xiao li understood that Jingyi Wang was really looking after her as though he was rearing a pig. She suddenly remembered his words, "If I raise you like a pig, then you will be my pig. That way, no one will look at you and find you attractive"
After Yang Lingsi left, Zhi Ruo who has been watching from the side finally spoke up, "Lili, you should have told me that this is how Jingyi Wang treated you, I wouldn\'t bother cooking by myself, I would be coming here to have my breakfast, lunch and dinner"
She said with a smile.
Xiao li heard her and smiled, "Ruoruo, do you think Ah Jin would allow you to eat here with him?"
Zhi Ruo thought of it and shook her head. She picked up the chopsticks to taste some of the food and immediately found it to be rather appetizing.
"I know Young master Jingyi Wang won\'t allow me to eat with you guys. So Stingy!"
As she spoke, she munched on the food with her eyes closed. Having tasted the savorness of the food, she didn\'t say a word and placed all her attention on the food, not minding Xiao li who Lingling brought the food for.
Ehm... What do you call this?
Xiao li couldn\'t form the right word to give this friend of hers.
After Zhi Ruo ate and drank to her fill, she belched and felt somewhat better. She glanced at Xiao li and saw that she only ate small portion of her food.
She frowned, "Lili, why didn\'t you eat? You should eat more" she urged her.
Her words made Xiao li frowned and groaned, "Aunty Ruo, when did you become like Ah Jin who would always force me to eat?"
"Aiya, Lili, why are you talking as if you don\'t eat at all? I can remember when we used to go out together, you will eat three plates of rice. Then, I thought you had a big black hole in your stomach you were filling with those foods" Zhi Ruo giggled loudly as she spoke.
During the years when Xiao li and Zhi Ruo stayed together, Xiao li was the one who had the biggest appetite which gave her the name, \'Big black hole belly\'
Xiao li felt embarrassed upon hearing those words. She pouted her lips and said with a sad face, "That was then, but now... I\'ve changed"
Hearing her words, Zhi Ruo burst into laughter which made Xiao li frown. Seeing that Xiao li was frowning, Zhi Ruo stopped laughing and held her hands. "Lili, I was only joking with you. I know that you don\'t eat too much now. I know"
Seeing that Xiao li\'s expression did not intend to change, she decided to change the topic. "Lili, I should have known that Young master Wang doesn\'t like Liu Wei. When he came to pick you up that night, his eyes were brewing out fire that I could not even look at them. I wished I didn\'t call Liu Wei that night"
After Jingyi Wang left with Xiao li that night, the two did not see each other or was able to contact each other again. Because of this, Zhi Ruo could not suppress her worriedness regardless of how scared she was of Jingyi Wang. She knew who Jingyi Wang was; A charming devil and she was scared of what he might do to Xiao li afterwards.
"After that day, did he... hurt you?"
At that moment, Zhi Ruo lowered her voice into a whisper and asked. As she did, she observed Xiao li\'s expression. She never had the opportunity to ask Xiao li, but now that she did, she wouldn\'t want to misuse it.
"No, he didn\'t do anything to me nor did he yell at me\'\' Xiao li spoke with a calm tone.
Seeing Xiqp li\'s indifferent expression, Zhi Ruo believed her immediately. She knew that there was nothing she would hide from her.
After seeing that Zhi Ruo\'s anxious and worried expression had changed, Xiao li poured a cup of tea for Zhi Ruo.
Zhi Ruo sipped the cup of tea and sighed, "Honestly, I can\'t believe that life can be so hard on someone at times. Look at you now, we once thought that you will marry Liu Wei-"
Her statement was interrupted by a long sigh. Zhi Ruo took a sip of the tea again before saying, "Lili, tell me, now that you are living with Jingyi Wang, are you going to marry him?"
She knew that although Xiao li had faced a lot recently, she was probably already fully aware of the events that will happen in her life. To Zhi Ruo, even if she did not later get married to the Wang\'s family, she should not waste her youthful years.
Right?
They were of the same kind, both of them would rather spend their young yeas on things that would benefit them.
That was why, these two girls had been exceedingly apprecitive of the fact that they have each other since they were young.
Zhi Ruo and Xiao long are of the same age, but one was older than the other just with some months and that made them more attached to each other.
They never left each other\'s side.
The moment Xiao li heard Zhi Ruo\'s question, she froze.
Was she ready to marry him and spend the rest of her life with him?
She had always asked herself that question, but left it for the future. Jingyi Wang had showed her how much he loved her.
"Time will tell; Let\'s just wait and see what would happen in future"
As she spoke, she used the wooden teaspoon to stir the tea leaves inside the tea pot before using the strainer to filter the newly boiled tea for Zhi Ruo.
Zhi Ruo collected the tea from her and gently placed it down on the table. "You know, if you are not happy with him, there is no use of hiding it from the world. He won\'t kill you if you tell him that. He would only punish you or worst lock you up and not let you go"
Xiao li raised her head and flashed a smile at Zhi Ruo. She said, "I know that you are worried, but I\'m fine"
Hearing her words, Zhi Ruo nodded her head finally in agreement, but still, couldn\'t stop herself from worrying about her friend.
When she first saw Jingyi Wang take Xiao li away, she was furious. Clearly furious. Xiao li who was so alluring, dazzling and could even claim a family background talents and beauty that others could only dream of was laughed at and criticized.
Not only that, she had been reduced to a slut and prostitute on her wedding day!
"It\'s a good thing that he is taking good care of you. If not, I wouldn\'t have taken it easy for him" Zhi Ruo suddenly said with all seriousness in her voice.
Xiao li heard this at that moment and her lips lifted into a smile. "Don\'t let him hear this. If he discovers that you have been speaking so freely behind his back, then he wouldn\'t take it easy with you either"
Zhi Ruo sighed before replying in a low voice, "It\'s still so fortunate for the both of us to have the chance to speak freely with each other. At least, he is not as bad as I thought"
"Ruoruo, what are you doing now? Don\'t you have a work already?"
After thinking for some time, Xiao li suddenly asked the question. She knew that Zhi Ruo\'s parents were both a military officers and business geniuses which made them one of G. City prominent family. Since Zhi Ruo had come from a family with a strong foundation, she did nothing, but sit to enjoy their money while her elder brother dealt with their family business.
Ever since her parents left the country for Europe to spend some time together, Zhi Ruo had been on her own living a life without her brother who was always busy with work or her parents.
Before they left, they advised her to go help her brother at the company, to have something to keep her busy, but she refused and decided to stay at home.
This made her parents leave her to face her own world.
"I\'ve been thinking about working as a medical intern in the hospital. I will specialise in the heart, Brain and blood vessels. It would be better to venture outside into the world and face some hardship than being trapped at home, but I haven\'t told my family about my plans because they want me to help my brother at the company and I don\'t want to"
"It\'s unfortunate that I do not have any medical experience, otherwise, I would go to the front lines with you to achieve my own worth"
Xiao li spoke with a heavy heart.
