C12 Childhood Friends

"So, the current you is the young miss of Qi Family, Qi Baiyu?" Shen Qi's question was only exchanged for Zhao Lan's bashful smile. It also allowed Shen Qi to regain the familiar feeling of Zhao Lan from her body.

"I really can't imagine, you really are … It's really too different! " Shen Qi looked at the noble Qi Baiyu in front of her. No matter what, she couldn't connect her with her playmate, Zhao Lan.

"Is that so? I thought it was okay, but I couldn't believe it when I went from Cinderella to Eldest Miss. "After I left with dad that day, I always wanted to contact you, but I couldn't find you no matter what. I thought you already …" What Zhao Lan said made Shen Qi's eyebrows curl into a smile. They were really good friends. She thought Zhao Lan had died for her, and Zhao Lan also thought that she had died from serious injuries.

The heavens really liked to play tricks on people. They actually let them meet again in the dark, and only then did they know that the other person was still alive. If she hadn't come back to visit her insane mother, perhaps she wouldn't have known that Zhao Lan was still alive and that Zhao Lan had been taking care of her mother all these years.

The reunion made Shen Qi's heart warm. Zhao Lan was the only one who had moved her when she was young. Zhao Lan, thank you for taking care of my mother for me. "It's been so many years. It's been hard on you." Shen Qi looked at Zhao Lan gratefully. Back then, she had paid her mother for all of her family's savings and was then taken away to England by Celestial Eagle Organization. During this period of time, she had not received any news regarding her mother.

Although her mother had beaten and scolded her as a child, her mother was still her mother in her heart. She cared a lot about her mother, and she was relieved to learn that Zhao Lan had taken care of her for so many years." Don't say that, that's what I should do.

By the way, you haven't told me how you're doing. Where have you been all these years? You never came to see her. I thought you were dead. " Shen Qi thought about what she had experienced in the past few years and knew that she could not tell Zhao Lan about the organization. Ring, ring, ring, ring... A burst of phone rings interrupted Shen Qi, who was about to speak. Zhao Lan smiled apologetically as she answered the phone by the window.

"Tianyuan, you're back? I was in the hospital visiting my old friend's mother. Yes. Yes. Wedding dress? Don't you have time to watch it with me tomorrow? Oh, I see. Will you pick me up? Really? Yes, yes! "Goodbye." Shen Qi didn't want to listen to Zhao Lan's phone call, but Zhao Lan's intermittent answers still reached Shen Qi's ears, along with Zhao Lan's happy voice that changed from depressed to happy when she heard the other person's answer.

"Is it a boyfriend?" "Shen Qi's bold guess." How, how did you know? "Actually, it's my fiancé. We're already engaged." What Shen Qi said made Zhao Lan blush. It also made Shen Qi smile. Zhao Lan was as shy as ever.

"Of course, I heard you say that the wedding dress, and your tone of voice was very dejected. "Well, what kind of person is he?" Shen Qi rarely gossiped about her old friends. Ever since she was young, she loved to tease shy Zhao Lan. Even now, she couldn't help but reproduce her bad habits.

"I, I love him very much." Zhao Lan's bashful expression was replaced with shyness, as if she was a silly girl who could not extricate herself from love. Such a Zhao Lan made Shen Qi's teasing heart even more intense. "Does he love you?" This time, the sweet smile on Zhao Lan's face looked a little awkward. She couldn't help but lower her head and speak in a low voice.

"I don't know."

"How could that be? Don't know?" Looking at Zhao Lan's expression, Shen Qi was a little angry. There was actually a man who didn't cherish such a good woman? Was that man blind? Just like when she was young, Shen Qi instinctively wanted to fight for Zhao Lan. How could her good friend be bullied by others?

"I think he loves someone else. I always knew that, but I still agreed to his proposal.

Qi, am I stupid? " Zhao Lan's smile was a little bitter. Shen Qi didn't know how to comfort this foolish friend of hers. Perhaps she already loved that man to the bones, so she knew that even if that man did not love her, she would still be willing to repay him with her body.

Such a love was too humble, but she could understand it, just as her mother loved her father so dearly that she could not bear a blemish. Even her existence made her feel threatened. Perhaps this was the reason why her mother hated her so much that even her own daughter would be jealous of her. However, she hoped that Zhao Lan wouldn't become like her mother. She lost her ego out of love, and her love changed her character and hurt others. Taking a step forward, Shen Qi held Zhao Lan's hand.

"Zhao Lan, don't feel wronged. Marriage isn't something where one person can just rely on loving another person." Zhao Lan's expression was a bit sad, but her eyes were filled with determination. Instead, she held Shen Qi's hand and smiled.

"Qi, you don't understand. I love him. Even if he doesn't love me, I'm still willing to wait until the day he falls in love with me."
