Rift Two

  "What's wrong, like you've seen a ghost?" Xu Luo opened with a particularly sly smile, she pulled over the boy beside her and immediately introduced: "A-mian, this is my good sister Gu Qing, same surname as yours, isn't it quite a coincidence?"

  I stared at the boy standing next to Xu Luokai, laughing, and asked in a pale face: "Are you crazy? Do you know who he is?"

  Xu Luo Kai glared at me, "My boyfriend, and who are you saying is crazy? Don't be so depressing, okay?" Xu Luo Kai seemed somewhat dissatisfied, but still pointed to the boy beside him and said: "This is Gu Meng, he's the one I've been telling you guys about, the person I've had a crush on for a long time and now openly love."

  "What are you doing?!" I shouted excitedly: "Xia Ling City, what exactly do you want to do?"

  No mistake, the boy standing beside Xu Luo Kai at this moment is undoubtedly Xia Ling Cheng. He is now smiling with a deep meaning - or rather, looking through me to see Ning Jing behind me.

  "Do you know each other?" Xia Lu suddenly became stunned.

  "Not just familiar, but very familiar." A calm voice floated over, and she walked step by step towards Xuluo Kai in Xiaoling City. Her eyes were cold, with a glimmer of despair flashing at the bottom. My heart sank a little with every step she took, I was flustered and at a loss, completely unsure what to do.

  Perhaps at that time I already had a premonition in my heart, our invincible friendship, our iron quadrangle, was about to break.

  Ning Jing did nothing, but walked straight to Xia Ling Cheng's face, staring at his face in a daze, then stretched out her hand to gently stroke his handsome yet icy cheek, and suddenly smiled.

  "A Cheng, I hate you." Ning Jing said calmly and clearly, with the gentlest expression saying the most ruthless words.

  Xia Ling Cheng didn't move, nor did he say anything. He didn't even look at Ning Jing again. Xu Luo furrowed his brow and stared fixedly at Ning Jing's hand, opening his mouth but saying nothing.

  "Quiet, maybe we've mistaken the person?" In a strange and eerie silence, I hastily opened my mouth, thinking that the person standing in front of us might not be Xia Ling Cheng after all, but someone else who looks very similar to him.

  She turned around quietly and looked at me, I clearly saw the blame in her eyes. She asked softly: "How is it possible? The man engraved on my heart, do you think I could be wrong?"

  I am speechless, and all I feel is that this moment's silence is eerily unfamiliar.

  "Aren't you fond of Gu Jing? Why are you with Xu Luo again?" Ning Jing looked at Xia Ling Cheng, asking calmly.

  She no longer affectionately calls me A Qian, nor does she intimately call out to Xu Lu Kai with a soft "Lu".

  "Who told you I like Gu Jing?" Xia Ling Cheng seemed to glance at me, yet didn't. He pulled in Xu Luo Kai's shoulder with a familiar gesture and said intimately: "Darling, quickly tell her who the person I love is."

  Even if Xu Lu Kai is confused now, "A Mian, who is Xia Ling Cheng? A Cheng... isn't that Ning Jing's boyfriend?"

  No one answered Xu Luoke's question, and this sudden change left us all caught off guard.

  "You're asking too much. How could I be so stupid to support my own sister in pursuing my boyfriend? Xu Luokai, don't you owe me an explanation?" Ning Jing's calm gaze shot towards Xu Luokai, who turned pale and vaguely understood something. Her gaze suddenly shifted to Xia Lingcheng, filled with incredulous panic and helplessness.

  Xia Ling Cheng laughed with a triumphant smile, his eyes gleaming with a ruthless light.

  He must have done it on purpose.

  He had known about Ning Jing and Xu Luoke's relationship all along, he must have known!

  Just as I couldn't bear it and was about to rush forward and punch Xia Lingcheng, Fang Chaoyang stopped me and asked in a low tone, "Do you know who Gu Meng is?"

  I was stunned and subconsciously looked back at him and asked: "Who is it?"

  "Gu Xianyang's eyes were deep and profound as he looked at me, answering word by word: 'Gu Mian, Gu Chen is your older brother born of the same mother.'"

  In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth split apart.
