Xinyou Qiao resisted the urge to splash coffee at her and sincerely apologized, “Venus Mu, I really
want to say sorry to you. I’ve been thinking a lot about our old days, remembering how happy we were
at school...”
“Wait,” Venus raised her hand to stop her and correct her, “Reminiscing about the past? No. I really
don’t want to remember the past at all right now because I feel like a big fool when I think of all the
times I used to be with you.”
“Venus, don’t be like this.” Xinyou seemed a bit sentimental, “Let me finish first.”
“Okay.” She was also curious to what she’s gonna say to show her regret.
“I know I’ve done a lot of bad things and hurt you during this time. It’s all my fault. I’ve figured out now
that Kerry Ye won’t like me and I don’t want to live like this anymore, so I will leave and chase after my
own happiness. If you don’t believe me, I will move out of the villa tomorrow.”
Of course she didn’t believe her. She wasn’t a three-year-old child anymore.
“That’ s all what you want to say?” Veuns asked.
Seeing that Venus didn’t trust her, she said anxiously, “Venus, I was really wrong. I sacrificed our
friendship for an unattainable love and I’ve been regretting it for the past few days. Today I finally have
the courage to apologize to you and I hope you can forgive me and still treat me as a friend. I sincerely
wish you and Kerry to live a happy life.”
Gazing into her incomparably vicious eyes, she wondered what was the reason that made her grovel.
“Venus, can’t you just trust me?” Xinyou said rather sadly.
The coffee that the waiter re-served emitted a strong bitter taste, and before drinking it, Venus felt a
faint bitter taste on her tongue.
“Xinyou, after all you’ve done, I was almost killed by you, so do you think I would still believe you?”
Xinyou got anxious, “Venus, if you don’t believe me, I can swear.”
Venus snorted, “Go ahead.”
Xinyou just said that, but she didn’t think that Venus took it seriously, so she cursed her inwardly, but in
order to make her believe, she had to put up her palm and said, “I, Xinyou, swear to God, if there is any
lie, I will be in hell. How about this? Do you believe me now?”
Venus hadn’t expected her to actually swear and she even had believed her for a moment, but on the
other hand, she didn’t care her parents anymore, so how would she care the vow?
Since she’s working so hard on her acting, how could Venus not cooperate?
Taking a sip of warm coffee, Venus found it was quite bitter.
“Well, since you say so, I’ll believe you for once.” Venus’s expression was somewhat helpless.
Xinyou immediately became happy, “Venus, you’re so nice. I knew you’d still treat me as a good friend.
Don’t worry, I’ll move out tomorrow.”
She was so happy on the surface, but she was gloating inside, “Tomorrow? I’m afraid you won’t even
be able to see the sun tomorrow, Venus.”
“Good, then I’ll be waiting for you to move out of the villa.” Venus smiled.
Xinyou saw it was the time and said affectionately, “It’s still early, why don’t we go shopping? We
haven’t been shopping for a long time and I miss it so much.”
With fingers fondling her coffee cup, Venus said, “I don’t have anything to buy.”
“Shopping doesn’t mean buying things, right? I want to buy some new clothes, so you can give me
some advice.”
Venus scoffed. Advice? She remembered when they went shopping for clothes at school, Xinyou would
always tell her that she had a bad taste and that she had to buy the clothes she recommended. Now
she thought about it, she was really stupid to listen to her and the clothes she bought were black, white
or grey.
“Come on, please.” Xinyou was keeping begging her. With everything arranged, if Venus didn’t go,
Xinyou would be in vain.
Venus put down the small spoon and finally spoke, “OK, I’ll go.”
Xinyou shouted a big ‘YES’ inwardly!
She really paid a lot to lie to her. After this was done, she would have to give herself a treat.
The lights were on and the streets were crowded.
“Venus, the clothes in that store are particularly good. Let’s go.” Xinyou then held Venus’ s hand, like a
pair of good friends.
