A Billion Dollar Exchange-Chapter 255: Performing in a concer

''My love, ''

Liling said after a long while. Liu Wei, who had thought that she had slept off, opened his eyes when he heard call.

''Mm?''

Liling did not speak for a moment, she raised her eyes to peer at his face, and their eyes met.

''I don't want us to ever have issues; I don't want us to get to that point. ''

Her eyes fell to his chest, she felt them getting blurry.

''Can you do that for me? Can we never quarrel? ''

Liling asked her voice shaky. She clutched her palms into fists, thereby clutching onto Liu Wei's shirt.

She could not imagine the both of them in the state Jin Yue and Xin Yong were presently. Whatever was wrong, she would find a way to make amends, she would trust him no matter what; she just needed him to do the same.

''Baby, if my right hand will cause us to have issues, I'll cut it off.''

They both burst out laughing and Liling slapped him against the chest.

''Be serious now, I'm serious, ''

''I'm serious too, why are you always this uncertain? Haven't I proved my love to you? ''

Liu Wei asked, creasing his brows worriedly. Liling shook her head immediately, trying to clarify herself/.

''No, no, you have proved yourself in ways I could not even imagine, what I mean is…, ''

She stopped for a moment, her voice reduced to a whisper.

''Jin Yue loved Xin Yong, loves Xin Yong, she loved him too; but what happened? An external force separated them in ways they could never imagine…''

Liling stopped talking and looked up at Liu Wei. At this point, Liu Wei got the gist of what she was saying.

She was scared of someone separating them; it was there in her eyes, her uncertainty. He chuckled for a moment.

''Love, nothing like that would happen to us, even if I see you kissing someone else and you tell me that you love me, I wouldn't mind what I saw, I'll believe you immediately . ''

''Really?''

Liling asked, smiling sheepishly.

''Hey! That doesn't mean you should go around kissing other men! ''

Liling burst out laughing; she inched closer and kissed his cheeks.

''You know that's not possible. Let's sleep now, tomorrow will be very busy for me. Goodnight, dream of me. ''

Liling said, closing her eyes. Liu Wei kissed her forehead and whispered.

''You are always in my dreams. ''

…

Somewhere downstairs in a quiet room, Yan Ran picked up her phone from the dressing table.

She searched through her contact and when her eyes landed on the name she was searching for, a smirk widened her lips.

She immediately dialed on the number. It rang twice before the person on the other end picked it.

''Hello? ''

She sounded groggy, as though she had been sleeping.

''Da Xia, sorry for calling late. Did I wake you up? ''

''No, what is it? ''

''She is performing in a concert this Wednesday. You know what to do. ''

There was silence for three seconds before Da Xia replied.

''Okay, ''

Yan Ran dropped the phone back on the dressing table when she heard it beep. She picked her cream poured some onto her hand whilst humming a song that only she knows.

…

Jin Yue was sitting in his car outside Xin Yong's Aunt's home. He had vowed to remain there; he did not want to lose sight of her again. After speaking with Liu Wei that afternoon, he stayed in his car till they closed for the day.

He watched as they left one by one, waiting to see her.

Finally, she stepped out with another lady. She was saying something to her and demonstrating with her hands as she normally would with him. She looked okay, okay without him.

Jin Yue felt a pang in his chest as he watched her; she walked past him_ his car, without even glancing once.

Maybe she did not see him?

Jin Yue tried to console himself but deep down inside he knew that she intentionally ignored his existence. If she had even looked just once, it would have given him hope, but she didn't even glance. It was as though there was nothing there in the first place.

He waited for her to walk a distance before following slowly behind. Halfway, she boarded a taxi and he quickly followed the taxi but stopped a safe distance when she reached her destination.

She paid the fare and walked into the house without even looking back.

Jin Yue waited for the taxi to leave before driving closer to the house. He parked his car and turned off the engine but remained inside.

It was three am in the night but he had not stepped out even once.

…

Xin Yong woke up to her blaring alarm. She quickly turned it off and shifted her position on the bed trying to continue sleeping, but just as she was about to drift deeper, her aunt came knocking on the door.

''Xin Yong! You don't want to miss your flight, do you? ''

Xin Yong groaned and used the pillow to cover her ears.

''Wake up from there and go check who is that outside, that car had been there all through the night. ''

Xin Yong felt her body stiffen when she heard what her aunt said, but she did not move.

She saw him when she left the support home, she knew he followed her, she knew he was there all through the night but she did not want to care.

There was nothing to say. Everything was closed and done. Why was he following her around now?

What would he tell her that would change what had happened?

Oh maybe he heard about the child and he's here to sympathize for her loss!
