I ask for Loyalty (5)

Pei Qiqi lowered her eyes and didn’t meet his gaze. Instead, she extended her hand and organized her stuff.

Chen Xinjie looked at her, then at the pair. She then spoke coldly, “I couldn’t tell before that Lin Jinrong is into white lotuses*.”

Her tone sounded like she felt very bad for Pei Qiqi because it was obvious, even to the blind, that Lin Jinrong had actively pursued her. However, now, he had gotten together with Pei Qiqi’s little sister.

This was like a slap in Pei Qiqi’s face.

“Chen Xinjie, stop!” Pei Qiqi lowered her voice.

What made her better than them?

She was now owned by a man named Tang Yu and had no right to think about anything related to Lin Jinrong.

Chen Xinjie mumbled a few additional things under her breath…

Lin Jinrong’s gaze was on Pei Qiqi the whole time, but she never looked at him once.

Just then, Pei Huan’s fingers crawled up his arms. Her voice had gotten soft and sticky, “Jinrong, let’s go sit over there!”

There were two empty seats by Pei Qiqi’s side.

It wasn’t that there were no other seats, it was just that Pei Huan wanted to spite Pei Qiqi.

She linked arms with Lin Jinrong and walked over to Pei Qiqi’s side with a victorious smile on her face.

She originally wanted to sit beside Pei Qiqi, but Lin Jinrong beat her to it and sat by Pei Qiqi.

Pei Huan wasn’t too happy about this. But since she just got together with Lin Jinrong, she didn’t dare to act out too much…

All the blood in Pei Qiqi’s body froze. How could she not know Pei Huan’s thoughts?

And Lin Jinrong was right beside her. To her, this was torture…

Nobody could act as if nothing had happened in front of someone they’ve liked for two years. It was just that right now, while their surroundings remained the same, the people have changed.

He was now Pei Huan’s boyfriend and she was now someone else’s woman.

Pei Huan didn’t listen to the class at all and for the entire time, her face was placed on top of Lin Jinrong’s arm…

Almost nobody was listening in class. They all watched the situation unfold.

Remember that Pei Qiqi and Pei Huan were sisters. And Lin Jinrong had always liked Pei Qiqi before this…

After class, Pei Qiqi cleaned up her stuff and left in a hurry while she disregarded everyone’s stare. Chen Xinjie followed right behind, “Pei Qiqi, wait for me.”

Lin Jinrong’s gaze followed Pei Qiqi as she left. He felt a wave of pain inside.

He was very good looking, handsome, and friendly. His hair was soft and though longer compared to other boys, looked very graceful. Many girls from University B had a crush on him, but he only liked Pei Qiqi. He liked her for two years and never confessed.

Last Wednesday was his birthday and Pei Huan attended his party with a party invitation that was meant for Pei Qiqi…

That night, he had too much to drink and ended up in bed with Pei Huan.

It was also Pei Huan’s first time, so he had to take responsibility.

“Lin Jinrong!” Pei Huan pulled on his arm and expressed her unhappiness.

Lin Jinrong stood up and said softly, “Let’s go!”

Outside, Chen Xinjie followed Pei Qiqi tightly and pouted, “Alright, Pei Qiqi, I’m sorry. I didn’t know they would come together. Can you forgive me?”

She extended her hand and pulled on Pei Qiqi’s arm.

Pei Qiqi stopped. “I’m not angry!”

The reality was that she wasn’t angry because she had no right to be angry.

She did feel a little lost and uncertain of what to do. For Lin Jinrong to now be involved with Pei Huan meant everyone’s now tangled up in one way or another. She would likely need to spend the rest of her life under Pei Huan’s taunting glare.

Chen Xinjie watched over her and became even more subservient. She apologized continuously and then said, “I asked you to come because I really do have great news.”
