Chapter 442 - It's Your Freedom to Choose Your Friends

Chapter 442 It’s Your Freedom to Choose Your FriendsAlthough some comments expressed some doubts about the authenticity of Feng Hanyu’s identity in the video, most of the netizens still chose to believe, and some even apologized.

Li Feiran’s eyes turned red. In the past few days, she had suffered a lot of pressure. She was beaten on the street and was attacked on the Internet. This kind of injury was like an invisible whip harming her body and mind, causing her the indelible hurt and pain.

After a long time, her mood gradually calmed down. Then she turned off the computer.

“Xia Yu, Feifei, Xiao Tang, thank you. It is worth it to have good sisters like you.”

She held everyone’s hand tightly, and her tears flowed down.

“It’s all over now.” Xia Yu hugged Li Feiran. Now everything was clear again after the storm, and everyone was happy.

“We should celebrate.” Xiao Tang proposed.

Today, Feng Hanyu’s video was recorded, and he was set up. Li Feiran’s innocence was proved, and everyone should celebrate it.

“Well! What do you want to eat? I will treat you guys.” Li Feiran immediately wiped off the tears in her eyes and said with a smile.

“Hot pot! The Chongqing hot pot that we had last time.” When thinking of that taste, the saliva in Xiao Tang’s mouth was going straight out. What was more, after the storm had passed and everyone was in a good mood, they could eat at ease now.

After eating, Xia Yu sent Li Feiran back. They saw Yang Zhuo at the gate of the community. He saw Li Feiran. Then his eyes lit up, and he quickly came over.

“I worked overtime today. Have you eaten yet? If you haven’t eaten, I’ll treat you guys.” He explained it specifically while looking at Li Feiran with a deep and gentle look.

“We have already eaten.” Li Feiran seemed to be embarrassed by Yang Zhuo’s loving look and said while lowering her eyes slightly.

“I will go back first!” At this time, Xia Yu had to give them private space, of course. Xia Yu waved to both of them.

Yang Zhuo looked at Xia Yu, showing a grateful expression in his eyes.

“Xia Yu, go up and rest for a while!” Li Feiran gave Xia Yu a wink, meaning that she didn’t want her to go.

Xia Yu didn’t want to be the third wheel definitely. She waved her hand again before going home. The phone rang when she just entered the door. A happy moment hit Xia Yu’s heart. Shen Yan must be calling her. She took the phone out of her pocket, and it was Li Wen. She suddenly felt somewhat down in the mind.

“Xia Yu, do you have time now? I’m hosting a party now. Can you come over?” Li Wen said with anticipation in his tone.

“Okay!” It was already eight o’clock now. In fact, she wanted to take a shower and then go to sleep after talking on the phone with Shen Yan. But she couldn’t just refuse Li Wen’s invitation.

“You just come out. I am right in front of your neighborhood now.” He did not expect Xia Yu to say yes and said happily.

Xia Yu was a little surprised. He was already outside the community. He must be sure that she would say yes.

When she walked to the gate of the community, she saw Li Wen was leaning against a white car. After seeing Xia Yu, he showed a bright smile and waved at Xia Yu.

Li Wen’s facial features were very delicate. They could even be said to be beautiful. The whole person exuded youth and vitality, and his countenance reached the level of Mr. Mcdreamy.

“Xia Yu.” Li Wen called her and interrupted her thoughts. He had opened the front passenger’s door, and Xia Yu said thank you before sitting in.

The party was in a small bar, and all of his friends were there. Later, Xia Yu knew that today was Li Wen’s birthday.

“Young Master Li, why didn’t you tell me earlier? Otherwise, I would prepare a gift for you.” Xia Yu felt a certain level of regret and apology.

“I am already very happy as you can come to my birthday party.” That was Li Wen’s innermost thoughts and feelings. He had not successfully invited Xia Yu yet. He said with a smile, and his eyes showed a sense of sincerity. He meant what he said.

The people who came to the party were similar to Li Wen’s age. They played crazily, and the atmosphere was very good.

“Buzz, buzz…”

The phone in the pocket was buzzing. Because the surrounding music was too loud, she didn’t hear the ringing but felt the vibration.

Xia Yu took out the mobile phone, and the call was from Shen Yan. Xia Yu went to the restroom which was slightly quieter.

“Hey, Shen Yan!”

“I just got off the plane. Are you ready to go to bed?” Shen Yan’s voice on the phone showed his exhaustion.

Xia Yu did not intend to conceal the truth from Shen Yan, so she said that she was now attending Li Wen’s birthday party. After she finished speaking, Shen Yan kept silent for a little while, which made Xia Yu nervous. She asked him cautiously, “Are you not happy?”

“I am really a little unhappy, but it’s your freedom to choose your friends, so I won’t stop or interfere.” Shen Yan said with a bit of helplessness in his tone.

The bastard had never given up on Xia Yu, so it would be strange if Shen Yan could be happy. But he didn’t want to quarrel with Xia Yu for this kind of thing so that Li Wen could pick up a bargain.

“Since you are not happy, I will try to contact him as little as possible in the future.” Xia Yu knew that he was upset in the mind, but Li Wen really helped her a lot. When someone invited her so sincerely, it wouldn’t be polite to refuse.

“Since you’re there already, have fun! But don’t stay up too late. You should go back early and then go to bed.” What could Shen Yan say? He was thousands of miles away and couldn’t physically take Xia Yu back.

Xia Yu nodded and said okay. After hanging up the phone, she walked out of the restroom and returned to the hall.

In the hall, some people were dancing, and others were drinking and playing games. Li Wen was chatting with a beautiful girl. She didn’t know what Li Wen said, but the beautiful girl was actually crying. Then she stood up and walked to the restroom quickly, looking very dejected.

Li Wen coldly watched the girl walking away while crying. It could be even said that he was indifferent.

“Xia Yu, come over and sit down. We’re having the cake soon.”

The indifference that he had just now had disappeared already and turned into a bright smile. He was waving at Xia Yu. Originally, Xia Yu was planning to tell him that she was going home, but now she wanted to at least sing a birthday song for him before leaving.

Xia Yu walked over to him and sat down. It didn’t take long for the bar waiter to bring a large five-layered cake. There was a hint of faint creamy sweetness in the air.

After the candle was lit, the lights were all extinguished, and the surrounding turned dark. Only the dim light of the candle was left, and the music stopped, too.

“Young Master Li, make a wish quickly.”

After hearing Xia Yu’s words, Li Wen closed his eyes and kept silent for a few seconds. The handsome face showed a happy and pious expression.

Someone took the lead and sang a birthday song, and everyone immediately followed and began to sing a birthday song for Li Wen. Xia Yu also joined.

As everyone was singing, Li Wen blew out the candle, and then the bar’s lights lit up.

Because Xia Yu had eaten hot pot with Fang Feifei and others before and was very full, she only ate a small piece of the fake. In the beginning, everyone was eating the cake in earnest, but it didn’t take long for someone to take the lead in starting a cake flight. The white cream was flying everywhere in the air.

“Xia Yu…” Li Wen called Xia Yu. Before she could answer, her face was wiped with cream. “Ha-ha…”

The sneak attack succeeded, and Li Wen laughed happily like a child.

Maybe she was infected by the people around her, or she couldn’t reconcile with the fact that her face was wiped with cream. Either way, she began to fight back and wanted to wipe the cream on Li Wen’s face. But he was more than 6 feet tall, and it would be difficult for Xia Yu to succeed if he tried to hide. She felt like a kangaroo as she was always jumping and trying to wipe the cake in her hand on Li Wen’s face.

The ground was very slippery as there was a lot of cream. When Xia Yu jumped up once again, her shoe soles slipped, and the entire person rushed forward. As Li Wen was just in front of her, she instinctively held him tightly. Under the impact, even he almost fell as well. He staggered several times and finally stabilized the body.

Even when he was about to fall, he grabbed Xia Yu’s arm tightly and did not loosen it.

“You didn’t twist your feet, did you?” He was worried and was ready to squat down to check if Xia Yu’s feet were injured.

“No, no, thank you.” Xia Yu was still a little scared. The cake in her hand also fell, and all of the cream, which was stuck on the other hand, stained his clothes when she held Li Wen just now. Only a little was left on her palm, and Xia Yu immediately reached out and wiped it on his face.

Xia Yu seemed to be very persistent. Even at this moment, she was thinking of wiping the cream on his face, perhaps due to the fact that she always failed before. Now his face was in front of her, and she wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.

Li Wen was stunned. His obsidian-like eyes showed a sense of surprise. It seemed that he never expected that Xia Yu would take the opportunity to wipe the cream on his face. She looked dorky but cute at the same time.

After wiping the cream, Xia Yu escaped, but she was caught by him in a few minutes. Now, she was forced to a corner, and there was no way to retreat. Li Wen’s body in front of her was like a wall, trapping the entire body of Xia Yu into the corner.

His ink-like eyes became very bright. He slightly smirked with the corners of his mouth upward, and Xia Yu closed her eyes to submit to her fate. When her eyes were closed, the other senses became clearer. In addition to the sweet smell of the cream in her breaths, she could smell the masculinity in a man’s body, probably because she was too close to Li Wen.

Her face became cold and slippery. Li Wen wiped the cream on Xia Yu’s face. He wiped it very slowly. Maybe it was Xia Yu’s illusion, but she felt it was more like he was fondling her face.

Xia Yu opened her eyes, and a beautiful face was so close to her. Xia Yu didn’t think that he would be so close and became surprised enough to immediately lean back.

“How about the cream mask I gave to you?” He grinned very happily, and he took a few steps back.

Xia Yu’s mouth twitched. She quickly walked to the bathroom. She didn’t expect that a few girls were also inside, and the cream was all over their faces, hair, and clothes like little kittens. Fortunately, Li Wen just wiped the cream on her face instead of her clothes and hair. Otherwise, there would be too much trouble cleaning it.

It turned out that a few girls were hiding in the bathroom to discuss how to surround Li Wen and wipe the cream on his face.

“Are you joining?” One of the girls asked Xia Yu.

Xia Yu shook her head and refused. She just wiped a little cream on Li Wen’s face, but he cornered her and wiped the cream over her face, so she didn’t dare to start with him again. She turned to look at the mirror in the bathroom and was shocked. Li Wen said that he gave her a cream mask. It was really the truth! Except for the eye area, her face was full of the white cream, let alone her mouth. She looked a little scary, like a female ghost in a horror film.

Xia Yu twisted the faucet and quickly washed off the cream on her face. Her face was very slippery, and it took a few minutes to wash it off.

“Who are you to Young Master Li?” A questioning voice arrived suddenly, which surprised Xia Yu so much that her body shook. The girls who were here just now had gone, hadn’t they?

The girl who questioned Xia Yu was standing at the door, and Xia Yu recognized her. It was the girl who cried after talking to Li Wen. Her expression was very serious, and her eyes were fixed on her.

“I am a friend of him.” When she was asked, Xia Yu found that it was difficult for her to explain her relationship with Li Wen. In fact, they couldn’t even be counted as friends. “Accurately speaking, he is a friend of my boyfriend. My boyfriend is on a business trip, so I came over on his behalf.”

Xia Yu knew this explanation was very immoral, but she didn’t want them to be misunderstood as a couple.

When she heard Xia Yu’s answer, the girl looked a little better. The way she looked at Xia Yu was not so sharp anymore. She did not continue to ask but turned away from the bathroom.

When Xia Yu returned to the hall, she saw Li Wen was besieged by the girls who had just been in the bathroom. He looked quite awkward, and there were waves of laughter around him.
