YM778.TV Chapter 357 - Lets Break-Up
But in comparison to Ru, Jie still thought he was being soft. If it was up to his best friend, she would skin these girls alive in the worst way possible.
"Why did no one heard all this commotion?" Jie asked after the room only had Ru with him.
"Oh, you know I have a sleeping potion. It worked so well." She smiled smugly.
"Did you have to do that?" Jie asked sorely as he shook his head in disbelief. She certainly knew how to use her expertise in useless things.
"Of course, I had to! You can’t even stand. Therefore, I decided to just end this whole drama right here in the hospital. Also, keep it from your wife. If she heard anything about this, she’s going to feel even more guilty."
"I’m not an idiot like you. Obviously, I’ll keep it from her." Jie answered certainly. He didn’t want Xu Mey to question her past actions at all. It wasn’t her fault that people don’t learn their lessons.
"So..."
Jie looked at her inquiringly as she cleared her throat awkwardly.
"I’m leaving tomorrow. And I might not come back again. Although I know you won’t miss me, I still wanted to let you know." Ru’s words came as a surprise to him but he didn’t say it. Seeing him quiet, Ru also didn’t bother saying anything else and turned to leave. For the first time, through a door. How shocking!
Jie looked at her receding figure and wanted to stop her but didn’t. He knew what she was running from. If only he could help her the way she always helped him. Sigh! But the worst part was she would never ask for help.
His eyes were still on the door when his cellphone rang by his side. He picked up seeing the caller id and gave a smirk. "What? Missing me already?"
A snort came from the other side. "Ah, you wish!"
Jie didn’t like her tone of indifference at all. "Then why are calling me?" The reply he got was silence... A prolonged one at that. Jie felt uneasy with her reaction. If he couldn’t hear her soft breaths, he might have thought that the call was disconnected. "Why aren’t you saying anything?" He grew impatient.
"JieJie, this might be my last call to you."
"What? Are you breaking up with me?"
"Can’t you use some nice words? What break up?" She was incensed in a second. Jie chuckled to himself at her reaction. She was really easy to mess with.
"If not, then why are you saying such nonsense?"
"JieJie, you have a family now. Soon, your family is going to be complete. And before you lose yourself in the bliss of life, I’m informing you that I might not call you again or come to see you again."
"Bullsh*t! I don’t believe a word you just said. Be honest with me, where are you going?"
"I don’t know where but it’s a place from where I might never come back."
"Ru’er," he didn’t know what to say.
"Don’t worry. Even death has a beef with me so I might not die. But when I come back, let’s stop being soul-brothers. Okay?"
"Huh? If we won’t be soul-brothers, what else we can be?" He asked incredulously.
"Zhu Jie, Young Master of Zhu Clan of Shenghua State, you better find out what we are before I come back." He could feel her smiling slyly but what did she mean?
"Can’t you just give me a hint?"
"Nah! Just know that you being Zhu Jie means you and I were born to be more than soul-brothers." With that, the call disconnected leaving Jie hanging. He couldn’t think of anything at all.
’If he’s Zhu Jie?’ That meant being a Zhu was a prerequisite of whatever she was saying. ’More than soul-brothers?’ How? And why?
Thinking about her strange words, Jie slowly went back to sleep. He needed to settle things but they could wait until he gets better. For now, his recovery was of utmost importance.
