“Hello, Ge Ge!”

Pei Ge smiled when she heard the voice from the phone.

Speaking of the devil!

She was just telling her mother about Tang Xiaoyu, and she called.

“Hello, Xiaoyu. Why are you calling me now?”

Picking up the phone and walking to the side to take this call, she motioned to her mother using her mouth.

“He he! I saw a post about you online. I’m just calling to check on you! I really didn’t expect that you’d one day be famous online!” her best friend teased in a voice filled with joy.

She shook her head at her best friend’s teasing, unsure of what to say.

“You’re in New York, and you know about this as well?”

“Of course! This has to do with my Ge Ge, after all! How can I not know about it?” replied her best friend.

“I gotta say that your relationship with Ji Ziming is quite known in the Chinese community here in New York! These few days, news about you keeps appearing in various social media! You have no idea how many people are envious of you!”

“Really? The news has actually spread over there?” she asked in disbelief.

Was she famous even overseas now?

“Of course! You don’t know how well-known your boyfriend is not just in New York but in many European cities as well! Basically, as long as one is involved in the financial world, they know of the Ji Ziming from China.”

Her best friend began complimenting her boyfriend. While she was not in the financial—or business—world, she had an elite boyfriend who was part of it!

Thus, she still managed to amass a lot of information just by listening to the man.

“Really? I didn’t know he is that great.”

She blinked, a little surprised to hear that.

“Of course! That’s why you’d better hang on to such a great man! Don’t let others get to him!” her best friend advised, slightly raising her voice.

“Pfft!” She laughed and then lifted her chin. “Others won’t get to him even if they try! My man only likes me.”

“Wow! You seem pretty confident,” remarked Tang Xiaoyu, raising a brow.

“Still, you’d better pay more attention. You two aren’t married yet, after all. There are probably a lot of women still eyeing the position of Mrs. Ji!”

“Hm.” Pei Ge raised an eyebrow a little before she smiled sweetly. “I forgot to tell you that both our parents want us to tie the knot soon. As for Ji Ziming, he wants to hold the wedding ceremony as fast as possible.” At this point, her voice was tinged with tenderness.

“Wow! Ge Ge, you’re good! I didn’t expect that you’d have him this deep already!”

Noting the shock in her best friend’s voice, she laughed aloud. “Ha ha! It’s normal. My boyfriend has me in pretty deep, too!”

“Okay, okay, okay! Stop showing off in front of me! Just tell me the exact date of your wedding ceremony, so I can book a flight in advance!”

“Wedding ceremony, huh! That’ll probably take a little while. Ziming’s mom wanted us to hold an engagement party before we get married.”

“Huh! That’s so much trouble! What’s the difference between getting engaged and getting married? Why bother with that stuff? Didn’t you say that they wanted you two to settle down fast?” asked her best friend, sounding slightly anxious.

She frowned when she noted how anxious her best friend was. “Why? Somehow, I feel that you’re more anxious about my marriage than I am!” she said.

“O-Of course, I am! How can I not be? You’re my best friend!”

For some reason, her best friend’s voice sounded a little flustered.

Still, she only thought of it as the other being genuinely worried about her and did not take it to heart.

“Thank you, Xiaoyu,” she expressed, feeling touched.

“Silly, what’s there to thank…”

Besides, I’m actually doing this for myself… I should be the one thanking you, Tang Xiaoyu said to herself. She realized that love was truly selfish.

She knew that it had nothing to do with her best friend, but she still did not want to tell her the truth.

In fact, sometimes, she would feel a little jealous of her best friend for… always easily getting everything… that she wanted.

“Yes, Xiaoyu! Don’t worry; I’ll tell you first thing once my wedding date is set!”

Pei Ge, who did not know of her best friend’s thoughts, smiled happily. She spent more time chatting with the latter before hanging up.

“That Xiaoyu, why do I get the feeling that something’s bothering her?”

She voiced out her confusion after she hung up.

Still, she knew that her best friend would tell her about it if she was willing to share it.

In contrast, if she was unwilling to talk about it, nothing would make her say it.

“Maybe, I’m overthinking things…”

…

New York.

Tang Xiaoyu spaced out a little after the call ended and gripped her thin phone tightly. Sighing, she eventually returned to her senses.

” Sigh … Tang Xiaoyu, is it worth it?” she asked herself listlessly. Sitting on the couch before a floor-to-ceiling window, she looked at the view outside.

For a man who has someone else in his heart, is it worth it?

Is it really worth it?

“Yes, it’s worth it!”

Suddenly, all the images of her time with the man since she came to New York flooded her head, and the confusion in her eyes disappeared at once.

I’ve been hanging on for so long… Anyway, Ge Ge doesn’t remember him and loves someone whom she intends to marry soon…

I’ve been by his side for so long and been through so much with him, so it’s all worth it!
