Sincerely apologized

The tables had turned. Now a visibly fuming Liang just sat staring at his lunch tray. Breathing heavily, he clutched on to his chopsticks.

On the other table:

"hi! How have you been?" Luwei asked in general, but his focus was on Jinjing.

"I am fine. How about you? You did not return that day." Jinjing inquired casually.

Luwei did not know what he should say. It would be so embarrassing to say that he was down with severe diarrhea and that he was in the toilet till the end of the party and had to be taken to the hospital in an ambulance….. naa definetly not.

"well I received a call from my father regarding some urgent business issue. You see I assist my father in our business already, unlike some." Saying so loudly, he observed Liang."

Meili, had a crush on Yan Luwei for a long time now. She knew him through a common friend. The moment he sat at their table, the gluttonous Meili lost all interest in food and looked at him with love struck eyes.

"sorry for standing you up that day." Luwei sincerely apologized.

"it's absolutely fine." Jinjing replied with a genuine smile.

"so who did you dance with then?"

"My…My brother took over…Sheng Liang." Meili took the opportunity to join the converstion.

Her unusually timid behavior gave away what she felt in her heart, at least Jinjing, her bestie did not need her to confess. Deciding to help her friend's one sided love to blossom, she introduced her to Luwei.

"sorry! My bad. This is my best friend Sheng Meili, I am sure you know her already."

Luwei nodded politely and shook Meili's out stretched hand.

Withdrawing, he continued his chat with Jinjing, while the infatuated Meili brought her hand close to her nose to smell his fragrance. " smmmmhhh.....ahhhh!!!"

"as an apology I would like to treat you to a meal someday." sensing Luwei's sincerity, Jinjing believed that he had no other intentions.

Even so she politely turned him down. "I have already accepted your apology; you really don't need to treat to a meal."

Not able to push any further, Luwei extended his hand to Jinjing

"then I guess we are friends now…right?"

Unable to refuse him this time around Jinjing simply nodded and shook his hand. Luwei tightened his grip in a firm handshake and did not let go immediately.

SLAM!!!

Liang slammed the table and walked out of the cafeteria followed by a happy Jiaying.
