Chapter 127: What Would You Do

Chapter 127

"Hehe... Heng... engagement..."

Hearing this, Nian Suian suddenly jolted, a premonition rising in her heart...

She immediately raised her head, looking towards the two people speaking.

"Alright, if you're really too busy, it's fine. It doesn't matter if we meet or not, as long as you're happy."

The person speaking was Hehe's friend, so the other girl must be Hehe.

Nian Suian looked at her. The girl was fair-skinned with curved eyes, and when she smiled, you could see her little dimples. Thinking back to what she had overheard at the cinema, it was bad enough not knowing her, but now encountering her made it even more difficult.

"Excuse me, this clothes... may I try it on?" Nian Suian approached them, pointing at the clothes in their hands. No matter what, she had to start a conversation first.

The girl called Hehe immediately handed the clothes to Nian Suian, "Of course."

The mall was well-heated, so Nian Suian had taken off her coat when she came in. It was perfect timing to pretend to try on clothes, so she put it on directly.

It was a light gray cashmere coat, with a nice cut and style.

Jiang Yun had just changed into a new outfit and came out of the fitting room. Seeing the coat on Nian Suian, she immediately walked over, "Suian, that coat looks great on you."

Nian Suian smiled and deliberately said to Jiang Yun, "These two ladies saw this coat first. I thought it looked nice, so I asked to try it on."

Nian Suian's mind was full of wanting to talk more with them, to clarify if this "Hehe" was actually "Wen He".

"It's fine, it's fine." Hehe's friend, hearing Nian Suian's words, waved her hands repeatedly, "I was just trying it on, I wasn't planning to buy it. This coat costs two months of my salary."

"This coat probably isn't the only one, let's ask the shop assistant. Xin Xin, if you like it, just buy it. You've come all this way to visit me, consider it my treat."

Before she could refuse, Hehe immediately called over a shop assistant and got another one out.

"It really looks good, Xin Xin. Don't believe me? Ask them."

"She's right, this coat suits you very well," Nian Suian also said to her.

Xin Xin indeed liked the coat very much, but the price was too high. Although it wasn't completely unaffordable, spending two months' salary on a coat seemed too extravagant.

"Come on, let's go pay! I said this coat is on me."

"Go ahead."

Nian Suian carefully recounted to Jiang Yun what she had overheard at the cinema a few days ago, as well as today's events, and explained her dilemma.

"If it were you, what would you do?"

"So today, you kept talking to them because you wanted to confirm if that girl was the one you heard about?"

"Yes, but as you saw, I couldn't even find out her name."

"In my opinion, you shouldn't think too much about it. After all, it's someone else's business. If it were a friend, of course, we'd have to warn them. But this is different. You don't know her, she's a stranger. Even if you say something, it might not only be useless but could also make others question your intentions."

Jiang Yun's stance was to not get involved. With strangers, even if you want to help, you can't.

Nian Suian sighed, "Actually, you're right. I don't have any evidence, so how can I interfere? It's just that I feel a bit uneasy. If she never finds out, what if she gets married and ends up being deceived for a lifetime?"

"That's not necessarily true. Maybe she'll discover it herself after a while?"

Nian Suian was still conflicted inside, but now that the person had left, even if she wanted to say something, she had no way to do so.

After returning home, Nian Suian was still feeling down. During dinner, even Gu Junxing noticed that her mood was off.

"What's wrong? Is there something going on at Zhijing's school?"

"Huh? No, Zhijing is doing fine at school. Nothing's wrong."

"Then why do you look unhappy?"

Nian Suian rested her chin on her hand, thought for a moment, and said to him, "Actually, I'm not really unhappy. I just feel a bit uneasy, I don't know how to explain it."

Gu Junxing put down his chopsticks, "Even if you don't know how to explain, try to say something. Don't keep it bottled up inside. Um... don't worry about phrasing, just say whatever comes to mind."

"If Qin Wei was cheating, would you tell Jiasong?"

(Qin Wei: Thanks a lot for that!)

"..."

Gu Junxing was taken aback for a moment. Thinking about Nian Suian's behavior today, he suddenly had a bad guess: "Where did you go this afternoon? You didn't see Qin Wei cheating, did you?"
