288 Running Away From Home
A few days later, Zhang Li Xue received a call from Fang Su Jin.
During her lunch break, Zhang Li Xue headed to the coffee house and found her friend Fang Su Jin sitting in the corner of the restaurant while enjoying some cakes.
Fang Su Jin saw her friend and waved her hand around. “Li Xue!”
Zhang Li Xue slid into the chair.
The server walked over and Zhang Li Xue began to order some food and drinks. When the server walked away again, Zhang Li Xue stared at the cakes on the table and chuckled. “Su Jin, are you sure you want to finish those cakes? I thought you were watching your sugar intake?”
A few weeks ago, Fang Su Jin complained a bit about her weight and decided to control her sugar intake.
“I’m stressed out. I’m allowed to eat this amount of cakes.” Fang Su Jin stabbed the cheesecake on the plate and shoved it into her mouth. As the rich and creamy taste filled her mouth, Fang Su Jin could not help but let out a long sigh.
The server returned to pour a glass of water for Zhang Li Xue before she moved away.
“What happened?” Zhang Li Xue asked. “Why are you stressed out?”
.....
When Fang Su Jin called to meet her, the girl had already warned that she was going to complain. Therefore, when Zhang Li Xue appeared, she had already prepared herself for it.
Fang Su Jin’s looked as if she was going to cry. “Li Xue, you know that I have been going out with that person right?”
“Mr. Liu?”
Fang Su Jin pulled a face when she heard that man’s name. “That’s right.”
“What’s wrong with him?” Zhang LI Xue asked.
“I don’t want to go on a blind date with him, but my mom insisted that I should give him a chance,” Fang Su Jin spoke. “A while ago, my mom even made me accompany Liu Fang to attend an engagement ceremony where I was introduced as his girlfriend.”
“His girlfriend?”
Fang Su Jin gripped the fork in her hand tightly. “That’s right. I haven’t agreed to it. How did I suddenly become his girlfriend?”
Zhang Li Xue had a disbelief look on her face. She had heard about Liu’s industry and Liu Fang before, but she did not think that the man would be this shameless.
“Anyway, I talked to my mother about it and she did not think that there was anything wrong with it.” Fang Su Jin pouted. “My mom seemed to like this person a lot.”
“Just tell your mother that you did not see Mr. Liu as a romantic partner.”
“I did. But my mom thinks that feelings can be developed slowly after spending some time together,” Fang Su Jin said. “Doesn’t she know that hatred can also develop after some time?”
Zhang Li Xue chuckled. She did not know what she should say. She would never guess that Fang Su Jin’s mother would be pressing Fang Su Jin to date someone this much.
“Anyway, this would not happen if my mom was not stimulated. My aunt called again to brag about my younger cousin’s wedding again.” Fang Su Jin drank some water to suppress her feelings. “Li Xue, that was not the most infuriating thing.”
The server walked over with the food that Zhang Li Xue ordered.
After the server left, Fang Su Jin spoke again, “Last night, Liu Fang asked me out, saying that he had something to discuss. I thought that he wanted to find a way to stop our mothers from setting us up together. After all, after our brief interaction, I don’t think that he liked me that much.”
“What happened?” Zhang Li Xue could already guess that it won’t be anything good.
“That creep suddenly started to discuss our living arrangement after marriage.” Fang Su Jin laughed. “He told me that he would be busy with the company. Therefore, he wanted me to look after his mother and do the house chores. He even told me that I need to stop painting and focus on our family.”
“This... isn’t right.”
“He must be crazy if he thinks that I’m going to marry him.” Fang Su Jin snorted.
“You need to talk to your mother about this,” Zhang Li Xue said. “Your parents loved you very much. Surely, they’re going to understand?”
Fang Su Jin’s expression suddenly changed. “I talked to my mother about it. To let her understand that I’m being serious this time, I ran away from home.”
The corner of her lips began to twitch. Just how old was Fang Su Jin? What makes her think that running away from home would solve this problem?
Fang Su Jin pushed aside the plate in front of her. Then, she reached for Zhang Li Xue’s hand and looked at her with puppy dog eyes. “Li Xue, my dear friend.”
Zhang Li Xue almost laughed when she saw the look on her friend’s face.
“Let me stay with you for a few days, alright?” Fang Su Jin spoke. “You have to help me. My dad will help to convince my mom. Before he succeeds, I’m not going back.”
Zhang Li Xue sighed. “Alright. I can let you use one of the rooms in our hotel. How about it?”
Fang Su Jin’s eyes lit up briefly before they darkened again. “That’s good too. I didn’t bring any clothes with me. Li Xue, lend me a few clothes, alright?”
“I’ll take you to the shop after this.
Fang Su Jin had the urge to hug her friend tightly. “Li Xue, I know that you loved me the most.”
Zhang Li Xue laughed at her words. A while later, she seemed to remember that she had promised to have dinner with Bai Qi. “Su Jin, I remember that you asked me to introduce you to Doctor Bai. How about we go to dinner together?”
“This is good too,” Fang Su Jin said. “I don’t have to worry about dinner. But, will your Doctor Bai be free?”
“He didn’t have to work the night shift today.” Zhang Li Xue took out her phone to text Bai Qi about some change in plan.
Fang Su Jin saw the faint smile on Zhang Li Xue’s face and sighed.
She also wanted to fall in love with someone and go on a date.
