Chapter 1860: You Mentioned It To Me?
A strange look flashed across Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes. The suit jacket and Pei Ge’s body temperature made her skin look smooth. No wonder Gu Zhengrong could not let go.
“I don’t want the clothes anymore. Take them back yourself. Also, I hope you can keep meeting me today a secret.”
Tang Xiaoyu’s voice was calm and her eyes were cold.
“Why? What exactly happened to you? Is there anything you can’t tell me? How did we end up like this? Xiaoyu, what are you hiding from me?”
Pei Ge frowned as she looked at Tang Xiaoyu with heartache. However, she did not know what had happened in Tang Xiaoyu’s heart that caused her to become like this.
“You mentioned the past to me? And the fact that I’m hiding something from you?”
Tang Xiaoyu lightly harrumphed as her eyes turned colder. On this night bustling with activities, she actually felt a sense of fear in her heart. She had never seen Tang Xiaoyu like this before.
“Xiaoyu, I…”
Pei Ge frowned. She still could not see the answer in Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes. What exactly happened between these two women?
In the blink of an eye, Pei Ge felt that the Tang Xiaoyu before her was extremely unfamiliar. It was so foreign that she could no longer say that Tang Xiaoyu was her best friend.
“You what?”
Tang Xiaoyu took a step forward, and Pei Ge took a step back as well.
“Pei Ge, we can be considered as good friends and best friends. Back when you were at your most helpless, I was the one who supported you and stayed by your side, but after so many years, when I needed you, where were you? How did you help me?”
Tang Xiaoyu’s lips were cold and her eyes were filled with hatred, making Pei Ge’s hair stand on end. “Ge Ge, am I right? Are we considered friends? If we are, is there a problem with me saying this?”
Tang Xiaoyu suddenly pursed her lips into a smile and looked at Pei Ge with hatred.
All these years, she had never understood what was real and what was not.
“Xiaoyu, is that what you think of me?”
Pei Ge’s eyes were filled with sadness as she looked into Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes. Her heart was in turmoil.
“Then, what do you want me to think of you? Do you want me to think of you? Or do you want me to continue being your escort? Oh, that’s not right. You’re Ji Ziming, Mr Ji’s wife, and you’re the second-in-command in the capital. However, in Mr Ji’s eyes, I’m afraid that you’re the mastermind here. Is there a problem with me saying this?”
Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes were sharp and her lips were curled into a smile. However, her eyes were exremely cold.
The night breeze was cold, but it was not as cold as the chill in Pei Ge’s heart. What was going on between her and Tang Xiaoyu? Why did it feel so distant? It was even more distant than heaven and earth. The two of them seemed to be ready to fight to the death.
“Xiaoyu, why do you hate me so much?”
She really did not understand what was going on.
The memories of the two of them holding hands and walking together on the small roads in school were still fresh in his mind. When Pei Ge was bullied, it was Tang Xiaoyu who bravely stood up for her. How did things end up like this now?
What had she done wrong?
“Do I hate you?”
Tang Xiaoyu coughed. The chilliness in her body had yet to dissipate completely. The night breeze felt chilly on her body, and the tears that were about to spill out of her eyes turned colder.
Thinking of the message she saw on his phone, which she had yet to send out, her heart became firmer.
“Ge Ge, I’ve always treated you as a good friend, but how could you bear to snatch my boyfriend away? Is your Ji Ziming, your CEO Ji, not good enough? Why did you do this to me?”
Tang Xiaoyu coughed again. Due to her sudden actions, her blazer fell off.
The handmade Italian VERSACE blazer landed on the ground and caused some dust to float in the air.
The two women standing beside the blazer looked as if they were about to explode with emotions.
“Is it because of Gu Zhengrong?”
Only then did she know why all of this was happening. It was because of Gu Zhengrong, but she, Pei Ge, did not have any contact with him after returning to the country.
Her hatred was all for this man.
“Then, who do you think I’m doing this for? I’m so good to you and you already have Ji Ziming. Why do you still want to snatch Gu Zhengrong from me? Do you think all the men in the world are yours? Why are you doing this? In what way am I inferior to you? In what way am I not as good as you?”
Tang Xiaoyu could no longer hold back her tears as they flowed down her cheeks. As she looked at Pei Ge, her heart was filled with hatred. Just how capable was this woman to make all the men in this world revolve around her while she, Tang Xiaoyu, had to be Pei Ge’s supporting role?
“Ge Ge, I didn’t. Believe me. I didn’t fight with you for Gu Zhengrong. In my heart, no man can compare to Ji Ziming. The only person I love is Ji Ziming. You know me. I don’t have any feelings for Gu Zhengrong. I’ve told him before that you were the one who sponsored him back then. You have to believe me, Xiaoyu. You have to believe me.”
Pei Ge grabbed Tang Xiaoyu’s arm tightly, startling her. She stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to say or do.
“Did you tell him?”
Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Pei Ge uneasily.
“Are you telling the truth? Are you really not related to him?”
In the few days that they were away, Tang Xiaoyu did not believe that Pei Ge would betray their sisterhood. Moreover, Gu Zhengrong was incomparable to Ji Ziming.
“If you really have something against me because of this, then…”
