Jing Xi had checked the internet on Mo Beichen's background and found that he was filled with scandals.1

"There's no difference, is there?"

Ouyang Feifei wasn't looking forward to a happy ending anymore, especially after learning what Mo Beichen really thought of her.

"Of course there is a huge difference!" Jing Xi scolded. "You are just going to sacrifice your future if you are married to someone you don't like!"

Jing Xi did not want Ouyang Feifei to give up on her future when she was still so young.

Was what happened to Jun Yan going to have such a huge impact on her? Jing Xi couldn't help but think

"I know that…"

Ouyang Feifei dropped her head.

It was clear that she was depressed.

"Is it because of Jun Yan?" Jing Xi then asked. "I don't really think he's not interested in you, you know? Look how he cared for you when you were hurt. He even took you to the hospital right away. He's the type of person who wouldn't do something like this if it wasn't someone he really cared about."

"…"

Ouyang Feifei raised her head and looked at Jing Xi in surprise.

"It's the truth," Jing Xi continued. "He had no idea that you even existed when I was pretending to be him. It's normal that he would be shocked when you suddenly appeared in his life. Give him some time, and he might realize that he also wants you."

Jing Xi just could not see Ouyang Feifei throw her happiness away.

"How about this?" Jing Xi suggested, knowing that she'd moved Ouyang Feifei's heart a little. "I'll create a chance for both of you to meet."

But before Ouyang Feifei could respond, Ren Meixin came in.

"Oh, Jing Xi," Ren Meixin greeted.

"Auntie."

Jing Xi got up and greeted her back.

"Please, sit."

Ren Meixin set her bag down and filled a bowl with congee for Ouyang Feifei.

"Have you eaten yet?" Ren Meixin asked Jing Xi. "I have more if you want some."

"Thank you, but I had my breakfast before coming here."

"I see."

When Ouyang Feifei was having her breakfast, Ren Meixin began to talk to Jing Xi.

"Right, we still have to thank Jun Yan for helping our Feifei on different occasions. My husband and I are thinking of inviting him over for dinner. Bring Yunshen with you too."

"Thank you for the invitation," Jing Xi thanked.

Jing Xi turned to look at Ouyang Feifei, telling her to not waste the chance through eye contact.

Ouyang Feifei did not say anything in return. But the affection towards Jun Yan that was once dead had been lit again by Jing Xi's words.

She thought that if Jun Yan showed that he actually was interested in her, even a little, she would build up the courage to tell her parents to cancel the wedding.

…

Ouyang Feifei left the hospital three days later.

A dinner feast was prepared at the Guangming Residence to celebrate that.

Jun Yan, Jing Xi, Huo Yunshen, and Ye Xun were all invited.

Jun Yan felt like there was no reason to go, but Ye Xun dragged him all the way to Guangming Residence.
