Upon knowing that Wang Weixi had a fight with Chen Kexin, Chen Keren and Yi Duanfang did not feel as happy as they had expected. Chen Keren, who was a workaholic, even asked for a leave and hurriedly came to Chen Kexin’s apartment the moment she heard Chen Kexin sobbing on the phone. As for Yi Duanfang, he directly left his company without asking for a leave.
When they happened to meet each other on their way to Chen Kexin’s home, both of them were surprised to see each other’s worried face.
“Hey, do you regret the plan to separate them?” Yi Duanfang asked with curiosity.
Chen Keren remained unmoved and rolled her eyes at him while saying, “Of course not. Don’t you think that Wang Weixi really made a fuss about a trifle? They just hugged. I’m not excited about such an easy victory at all.” Upon hearing that and seeing the cold face of Chen Keren, Yi Duanfang could not help but sigh helplessly.
Chen Keren found his reaction hilarious and asked, “Do you regret? If you do, you can withdraw from the plan now. I won’t stop you. I can carry out the plan all by myself.”
Yi Duanfang gave her a long, hard stare and said, “How can I withdraw from the plan now? I’ll send out a person who’ll exert great influence on Weixi very soon. I really don’t understand you girls in the city. Maybe you think it’s alright, but I guess every man will get upset upon seeing his wife in the arms of another man. He gets angry because he cares. As Chen Kexin seems to care nothing about his feelings, I won’t let him stay married to such a woman.”
Chen Keren listened to him nonchalantly while walking into the elevator together with him.
“If you feel guilty about making your sister sad, you can withdraw. After all, I don’t need your help at all,” Yi Duanfang said confidently.
“I’ll wait and see,” Chen Keren snorted coldly and said.
After that, they turned their faces away from each other and remained silent.
Somehow, they did not feel happy about their victory, but they could not figure out the exact reason. Or, they knew why they were unhappy but just refused to admit it.
When they reached Chen Kexin’s door, Chen Keren immediately rang the doorbell.
After quite a long time, Chen Kexin finally came to open the door for them.
Her hair was messy, her cheeks were red, and her eyes were bloodshot and puffy. She did not look like her customary cheerful self, and this sad look somehow reminded Chen Keren of her sister’s old feelings about the man who had used her before.
She could not help but wonder, “Does she feel what she felt before?
“Was I too cruel to her? It seems that she really loves her husband.
“But I just can’t let my sister stay married to such a man.”
“I told you not to come. You have to work today, don’t you?” said Chen Kexin dejectedly. When she was sad she looked exceptionally vulnerable and pitiable.
Yi Duanfang exchanged a look with Chen Keren and then said to Chen Kexin, “Come on, we’re sisters. I know that you’re in a bad mood now, and I’m in a bad mood too, so I come here. I believe that we’ll feel better when staying together.”
Upon hearing this ridiculous explanation, Chen Keren rolled her eyes at Yi Duanfang with contempt.
To their surprise, Chen Kexin went to pour two cups of water for them before sitting down with a stiff expression in her eyes.
Yi Duanfang looked at Chen Kexin in surprise and then exchanged a look with Chen Keren, who then whispered beside his ear, “My sister behaves differently every time she feels sad.”
Yi Duanfang nodded contemplatively and then squinted at the sad Chen Kexin. He somehow started to pity her as she did look much more vulnerable compared to her old self.
He went over to sit together with her and touched his nose while saying, “Kexin, don’t be so sad. Weixi just failed to control himself in a fit of anger. I’ll go to find him this afternoon and beat him up for you.”
Chen Keren also came here to sit down. She had never expected Wang Weixi to say something so hurtful and could not help but sigh and shake her head helplessly upon hearing Yi Duanfang words.
Right at this moment, Chen Kexin suddenly lifted up her head and looked coldly at Yi Duanfang, which made him feel somewhat scared.
“You don’t need to say this to me. I know that you hate me all the time. You don’t have to lie to me like this. I’m alright with it,” she said plainly.
Yi Duanfang was rendered speechless and felt awkward. Now he really did not know what he could do to further his plan.
Chen Keren sat quietly. She had asked Lan Xiao what had happened and found it hard to believe that such a minor misunderstanding could ignite such a big fight between Chen Kexin and Wang Weixi. “Maybe, Wang Weixi and my sister just don’t trust each other.”
She thought and threw Chen Kexin a quick glance.
“Kexin, what makes you think that I hate you? How can I hate a cute girl like you? Stop filling your head with such nonsense. Trust me. I won’t give Weixi unprincipled protection because he and I have been friends since childhood,” said Yi Duanfang. However, even he himself could hardly believe what he had just said.
“I know it. You hate me. I’m good for nothing and only bring others endless troubles,” Chen Kexin smiled bleakly and said.
Chen Keren touched her forehead while sighing secretly, “My sister is really able to drive others crazy when she’s sad.”
“Let’s hang out together to have some fun,” said Chen Keren. This was the only piece of advice that she could offer, as she really had no idea how to comfort others.
Upon hearing that, Yi Duanfang nodded vigorously and echoed, “Yes, yes, let’s go shopping together. It’ll make us happy. Or, we can go to ride on a roller coaster. We’ll forget about our bad mood after that. Let’s go~”
Chen Keren gave him a “you-are-really-childish” look.
Yi Duanfang closed his mouth very timely.
Chen Kexin sat there, without saying yes or no. Suddenly, she looked up at Chen Keren and asked seriously, “Keren, you hate Weixi all the time, don’t you?”
Chen Keren was stunned and remained silent. Chen Kexin smiled helplessly and thought, “Well, she didn’t say ‘no’, so the answer must be ‘yes’.”
“But I hope that you can understand that Xiaoxiao and I are just friends… and there’s nothing else going on between us,” added Chen Kexin.
Chen Keren nodded and said, “I see.”
Chen Keren was clear that no one could force two people to fall in love with each other. She just wanted to try and sincerely hoped that Lan Xiao could win her sister over, but now everything went against her will. She could tell that Chen Kexin had already discovered Lan Xiao’s love for her but she still loved only her husband Wang Weixi.
Chen Keren knew that from now on she could not control the situation anymore. All she could do was to wait and see what would happen in the future.
“I don’t care about what others think about me. I just don’t want Weixi to misunderstand me… It’s really sad to be misunderstood by someone you love,” Chen Kexin said while wiping off her tears.
When she was crying, she looked like a spotless porcelain doll and made others feel sorry for her.
Yi Duanfang felt anxious upon seeing that. At this moment, he suddenly realized that he did not hate her at all. He complained secretly that he should have realized this earlier.
When he really hated someone, he would never talk to that person no matter who he or she was. This was his principle. If he had hated Chen Kexin, he would have never come here to comfort her or taken her to some supermarket to buy food.
After realizing this, he felt embarrassed, and his face became red and then turned pale. He looked at Chen Kexin’s pale face and then grabbed her hand all of a sudden. Chen Kexin was so startled that she shook a little. At the same time, Chen Keren’s face became livid.
“Kexin, I’m sorry. I admit that I didn’t like you in the beginning, but now I feel really worried about you. Don’t be so sad. I don’t hate you. Cheer up, my sister. Just hang out with your Sister Duanfang, please,” Yi Duanfang said emotionally.
Chen Keren widened her eyes in surprise. She had never expected Yi Duanfang, that stupid sissy, to say anything like that.
Chen Kexin looked at Yi Duanfang, eyes welled with tears again. She nodded and said smilingly, “Okay, let’s hang out together.”
Upon hearing that, Yi Duanfang and Chen Keren heaved a sigh of relief.
