Chapter 31: Good Friend
In order to prevent these men from causing havoc for his little bride, he had to sacrifice his precious cognac.
“That’s right! I see that you really do care about your bride. Why don’t you announce her to the world since you care about her that much?”
Miles sighed helplessly. “At this moment, she is only aware that I have some money, but not of my true identity.”
Adam and Adela were both taken aback by this.
Adela asked, “When will you have your wedding?”
All three of them had been good friends since they were young.
They had experienced many things together. In other words, they were friends for life.
They usually joked with each other without taking anything to heart.
Of course, they were really ruthless when it came to ripping each other off.
Miles stood up, walking towards the huge French window which overlooked the whole of London. “I’ll wait until the day she truly falls in love with me.”
It was Saturday.
Tang Yu had gone out too.
Miles had made arrangements in advance, leaving behind the driver that Tang Yu had met that day at home. The driver was responsible for her trip.
She gladly accepted Miles’ kindness.
Tang Yu went to a cafe.
An Asian waiter, who was dressed as a cat girl, immediately came forward. “Hello ma’am, what would you like to drink?”
Tang Yu held her chin, turning to look at her. “What do you think?”
The cat girl excitedly grabbed Tang Yu, sobbing in happiness. “Xiao Yu? Is that you? Haven’t you been very busy recently? You finally came to see me…”
Tang Yu hugged her back as she comforted her best friend. “Alright, serve me some drinks and desserts that I like and we’ll talk after that!”
Seeing Zhao Xiaofeng, her good friend, walking away happily, the corners of Tang Yu’s mouth curled up into a smile.
They were both Chinese.
Although Tang Yu had followed her father to live in London after graduating from primary school, Zhao Xiaofeng was completely different.
She had come to England during high school. Her family was originally quite wealthy.
However, two years later, an incident occured.
Tang Yu had heard from her that her father was imprisoned, while her mother had run away. In the end, she became an orphan, alone in England.
In order to further her studies, she had to work multiple jobs in a day.
However, Zhao Xiaofeng had not been overwhelmed by life. Instead, she was tenacious, working hard to continue making a living. Not only did she live, she also managed to continue her studies.
They had been best friends in high school, but they did not manage to get into the same university, which was why they did not meet often.
When Tang Yu’s father was in trouble, Tang Yu had asked for help from all of her friends.
However, no one had been willing to lend her money. They all treated heras if she was invisible.
Tang Yu was extremely sad. She wanted to verify whether all of her friendships were truly fake, so she spoke to Zhao Xiaofeng.
Without even questioning her, she had proceeded to transfer 20,000 Yuan to her, saying,
“Xiao Yu, I’m sorry. I’m currently poor, so I can’t help you much. These are all my savings after paying off the past few years of living expenses and tuition fees. I hope this can help you even if it’s a small amount. I’ll pray for you and hope your situation gets better as soon as possible.”
Tang Yu had been so touched that she covered herself with a quilt, weeping out loud.
Of course, she returned the 20,000 Yuan back to Zhao Xiaofeng, saying that she did not want it anymore.
She told Zhao Xiaofeng that something had happened to her, so she could not meet her anytime soon. However, they would remain best friends forever.
Now, she came to look for her only best friend!
Zhao Xiaofeng walked over to her with coffee and four different desserts.
“I’ve asked for a half hour’s break from the head waiter. Now, tell me! Have you settled all your matters?”
She had been working part-time in this coffee shop for a few years, so she was very familiar with the head waiter and even the boss.
Tang Yu then told Zhao Xiaofeng everything that had happened in the past few days.
