Chapter 206 - Since when did I promise him anything? (1/2)
In the morning the next day, when Xie Ming woke up, she was feeling fresh and better.
She looked at her side and found that Liwei was not there.
She lazily sat up and get off the bed.
She walked towards the bathroom but stopped in her steps when her gaze landed on the note on the bedside table.
She picked the yellow-colored sticking note which said, ” Come down my sleeping beauty. Your prince is waiting for you at breakfast.”
She chuckled when she read the silly note and went to the bathroom to get ready.
….
After getting ready, she checked herself for the last time in the mirror as she fixed her hair and went downstairs after picking up her phone from the side table.
When she walked downstairs, she saw everyone was waiting for her on the dining table.
She felt bad as everyone has been waiting for her. She was tired and woke up late in the morning.
Even Liwei didn't wake her up.
He doesn't want to wake her up as she was sleeping peacefully and felt that she needs more rest.
She hurriedly went downstairs towards the dining table and went to Mother Jin, ” Mother. I am sorry for letting you all wait for me. I woke up late in the morning.” she said apologetically.
Mother Jin who was placing the dishes on the table turned to look at Xie Ming and said coolly, ” Oh common. You don't need to do all this formality. What's the big deal of waking up late.”
” Young people should sleep some more.” she winked at her as she said her words.
Xie Ming looked at her in confusion. Then she looked at everyone. They were giving her strange looks and giggling.
' What happened to everyone? What are they thinking that they are laughing like this?' she looked at Liwei to ask what happened.
Everyone's expression seemed strange.
Liwei who was looking at her shook his head as if saying to not mind them.
She tilted her head in confusion.
'What is this situation?'
After helping Mother Jin, she sat on the chair beside Liwei. She hit her elbow on his arm and said in low voice, ” What's happening? Why everyone is looking at me like this?”
Jin Liang who was sitting opposite of her couldn't control himself and spoke, ” Why are you acting so oblivious. Xie Ming, I never thought that you could betray me so easily.” he said as he felt wronged.
She furrowed her brows while trying to decipher the meaning behind his words.
” What do you mean?”
Mother Jin slapped Jin Liang's hand to shut him up.
But Jin Liang looked at Xie Ming and continued, ” Xie Ming, I thought that at least you're loyal to me. But you betrayed me and went to brother's side.”
She blinked her eyes at him in confusion.
' What nonsense is he talking about?'
Jin Liang got annoyed seeing her innocent expression and said, ” Why are you pretending to be innocent. I saw everything last night.” he said confidently which made grandfather spit the water out that he was drinking.
Even Mother Jin was shocked by hearing his son's words.
Xie Ming's eyes widened in horror as she asked him, ” What did you see?”
Her heart started to beat faster. She has no idea what this stupid brother in law has told everyone.
She turned to look at Liwie who was silently eating his breakfast.
She became speechless when she saw his calm and composed expressions.
Jin Liang looked at Xie Ming and snorted, ” Hah. So you want to pretend to be innocent. Eh?”
” Couldn't you wait for few days before betraying me. Didn't you promise me that you will not sleep with brother for a few days? Didn't you promised that you will punish him for wronging me?” he cried out in frustration.
Suddenly the atmosphere in the room became cold and awkward.
Mother Jin and grandfather and Father Jin glanced at each other in awkwardness.
' This stupid Liang...don't know when to stop his mouth?' everyone was scolding him inwardly.
Everyone knows what he had seen last night. He told them everything about how Liwei tortured him to keep him away from Xie Ming and how Xie Ming betrayed him.
He had told them everything about how Liwei pulled her into the room. He saw them going in together when he came outside for a while.
When Jin Liang told Mother Jin in the morning, she couldn't stop laughing.
Even Father Jin and Grandfather were also happy when he told them getting no reaction from Mother Jin. Everyone was happy that their relationship was progressing well.
