West Shadow.
Luckily, I knew Wan Junās schedule today, so I knew where to find her. Without a phone, it would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Eleven had Ye Wanjun send a message to Bai Xiaoxiao, inviting her to meet at the milk tea shop.
After what happened yesterday, she could only confide in her best friend.
As soon as they entered the shop, Eleven pulled Ye Wanjun to the furthest corner.
Ye Wanjun found it strange: "Didnāt you always like sitting by the window? Why are you suddenly fond of this dark corner today?"
Eleven looked around, making sure no one was nearby, then covered her face and said to Ye Wanjun in a pathetic tone, "I was feeling down last night, right? You didnāt accompany me, so I went to the bar and had a drink by myself."
"Um, and then?"
"I got drunk..." Eleven covered her aching head.
Ye Wanjun glanced at her curiously, guessing accurately, "Baby Eleven, you didnāt get frisky after getting drunk, did you?"
Eleven nodded.
Ye Wanjun was just joking when she said that, she didnāt expect Eleven to actually nod. She was instantly stunned, "Really???"
"Really..." Eleven sighed, "I donāt even know who it was. Maybe someone at the bar saw that I was alone and decided to take advantage of me. They drugged me. I almost had intimacy with a stranger."
"Almost means... there wasnāt anything, right? You scared me. I thought..." Ye Wanjun breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest.
However, Eleven immediately dropped a bombshell: "But..."
"Thereās a but?"
Eleven lifted her head and said to Ye Wanjun with a painful expression, "But when I woke up, I was in Jin Xiangbeiās house."
"What?!"
....
It took Eleven a while to explain what happened last night in detail to Ye Wanjun.
"So, Eleven, you..."
Although Eleven didnāt want to admit it, she had to nod her head, she held her forehead and said wearily, "Yes, in the literal sense, I cheated..."
"That..."
Ye Wanjun had never encountered such a situation, she was momentarily dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.
Cheating is a serious matter, something they once deemed unforgivable. But when it happens to her best friend, Ye Wanjun was speechless.
"Ahem... Iām the kind of person who... helps friends, not justice. Letās pretend I didnāt hear anything!" Ye Wanjun scratched her cheek.
Eleven smiled helplessly, not knowing what to say. "Iām at a loss now, not knowing what to do. Iāve been thinking about this on my way here. I wanted to discuss it with you. Should I tell the truth to Gu Liancheng?"
"Are you crazy?!" Ye Wanjun flicked her forehead, "How could you tell him such a thing! You want to die! What matters most to men? Dignity! If he finds out you deceived him and made him a cuckold, watch out for your life! I donāt want to see your name in some domestic violence death news!"
"Itās not that bad..."
At most...they would divorce, right? But that was something bound to happen anyway.
"First, you definitely canāt tell him. Second... donāt tell Xiaoxiao about this when she comes later apart from me. The more people who know, the more likely it is to be exposed, okay?"
"... Alright."
"And, when is President Gu coming back?"
"Next week...?"
"Thatās good, take advantage of these few days to rest well and recover, donāt give yourself away. Itās not your fault. Donāt take it to heart. Be good, go home tonight, sleep, and pretend as if nothing happened!"
