Chapter 1194: Sisters in Adversity
"No longer friends?" Yu Wei frowned deeply and said, "He can't be that petty, can he? Just because we're going to introduce him to a beautiful woman? Good heavens, he's so naive!"
After saying this, Yu Wei noticed that Lin Yuqing was still looking down, appearing depressed, so she quickly comforted her, "Oh, don't overthink it. Maybe this guy is just stuck in a rut these days. Once he gets over it, he'll still be the same Zhang Kaifeng."
"Maybe so, but I think it's time to step out of his life. I just hope he can find his own happiness and not get together with Donna out of spite towards me."
Gently patting Lin Yuqing's shoulder, Yu Wei comforted her, "Don't worry, Zhang Kaifeng is very sensible. Besides, he and Tang Na are just putting on an act right now. Maybe if they keep getting to know each other, their fake relationship will turn into a real one! Yuqing, don't think so negatively. Things will always take a turn for the better."
Yes, don't be so pessimistic. We should always look forward!
Silently encouraging herself, Lin Yuqing looked up, smiled, and hugged Yu Wei, saying, "It's so good to have you by my side!"
Yu Wei scoffed, but her eyes were full of laughter as she said, "What, you're only realizing how good I am now?"
Releasing Yu Wei easily, Lin Yuqing had regained her composure. She patted Yu Wei's cheek and asked, "Alright, now that you've comforted me, shouldn't you tell me about what happened between you and Mark?"
"You already know about what happened between him and me, so what else is there to say?"
“But I have a feeling that things aren’t that simple between you and Mark!” Lin Yuqing said with an air of certainty. “Besides, you just said that you went to Mark’s house. If your relationship hadn’t progressed further, why would you do something so intimate?”
Yu Wei felt utterly speechless and had no choice but to patiently explain the reasons behind it. Looking at Lin Yuqing, she felt quite helpless herself.
Resting her chin on her fingers, Lin Yuqing pondered for a long while before slowly saying, "After your explanation, I feel this matter is even stranger! Modi is hostile towards you, so why did he inexplicably agree to Mark being with you?"
“I was puzzled too, but Mark’s explanation was that he painstakingly explained my strengths to his father, which changed Mr. Modi’s impression of me.” Halfway through her sentence, Yu Wei suddenly realized something, frowned, and said, “Also, we’re not together, don’t talk nonsense!”
"Yes, yes, I didn't express myself well. But don't you find it strange that Mr. Modi, such a stubborn person, would change his mind just because of Mark's words, and even act like he can't live without you? What I find hardest to understand is that he actually called your parents, as if he was afraid you would change your mind. The contrast is too great, it really makes one have to be careful."
What Lin Yuqing said was also what Yu Wei was worried about. But now she had no clue what to do, and she didn't want to have anything to do with Mark anymore. She just wanted to leave, but she didn't expect that her every move was being watched by others, and she couldn't leave even if she wanted to.
Seeing Yu Wei's puzzled expression, Lin Yuqing said, "Don't worry too much. Mark definitely knows the truth. We can slowly get the truth out of him."
Frowning and nodding, Yu Wei said, "That's all we can do now. You have no idea, my parents don't understand Mark at all. They were so worried when they found out I was entangled with him that they wanted to come and pick me up themselves."
Lin Yuqing does believe that Yu Wei's parents are capable of doing such a thing, but if both sets of elders get involved, things could easily escalate, and it would be difficult to resolve the situation then.
The two sisters, both in dire straits, exchanged a glance and sighed helplessly. Then, they smiled at each other, temporarily dispelling their sorrow.
……
Since meeting Donna, Zhang Kaifeng has become a considerate and attentive gentleman. The two often travel together, with Zhang Kaifeng taking great care of Donna, and Donna falling deeply in love with this outstanding young man.
Hansen had heard some stories about Zhang Kaifeng, and although Mark vouched for him, he was still worried that Zhang would bully his precious little sister. However, after spending the last few days with him, he realized that Zhang Kaifeng was indeed a good marriage prospect, and if the two of them could continue like this, everything would be fine.
However, time was limited, and before long it was time for Hansen to return home. Donna wanted to stay in England and continue dating Zhang Kaifeng, but Hansen warned her that girls who were too proactive would not be cherished by men. So, even though she was reluctant to part with Zhang Kaifeng, Donna still followed in Hansen's footsteps and returned to France.
Mark breathed a huge sigh of relief when the two siblings left.
Mark didn't ask, but that doesn't mean he was unaware of the undercurrents between these people. Being caught in the middle every day was a truly unpleasant experience.
After everything came to a close, Yu Wei planned to go home and spend some time with her parents, and also get some rest. The time she spent with Lin Yuqing had truly been thrilling. Fortunately, the storm had passed, and she and Xiao Mingyang had finally made it this far without any major incidents, so she could leave with peace of mind.
Upon learning that Yu Wei was leaving, Mark hurriedly inquired about when she planned to depart and her flight information.
Yu Wei didn't want to have anything to do with Mark anymore. Hearing him keep asking questions, she asked warily, "Why are you asking this?"
Mark chuckled twice and said, "I was just thinking of taking you to the airport."
"Thanks, Yuqing will take me there. We can chat on the way. As for the others, it's best not to get involved; it's not really convenient!"
Yu Wei's implication was that she didn't welcome Mark's presence. However, Mark was oblivious to this, secretly plotting how to find a chance to sneak off with Yu Wei to China and meet his future in-laws.
Seeing Yu Wei and Mark each lost in their own thoughts, Lin Yuqing shook her head with amusement, thinking that it was quite good that they were like this, using their wits to outwit each other, and maybe one day they would come together.
However, once she returns to China, Yu Wei will definitely see Sheng Nantian, and with the three of them together, there will surely be some commotion.
When Yu Wei returned to China, Mark did not appear before her. Lin Yuqing hugged her reluctantly, carefully telling her to be careful on the road and to call her when she got home.
Yu Wei hugged Lin Yuqing tightly and laughed, "I'm not a child anymore, don't be so fussy!"
"Although you're not a child, you can be more careless than a child!"
“If your role model is your Xuan’er, then I am truly ashamed of myself.” Yu Wei smiled as she picked up her luggage and said, “You also need to take good care of yourself. Although Xiao Mingyang is now in charge of the Xiao family, Xiao Jincheng is still around, so you need to be careful.”
