Chapter 127: The Woman Behind the Mask
"President Li, wait a moment."
In the traditional garden courtyard of the restaurant, Wei Jia hurriedly caught up with Li Jing, who had just walked out.
"This matter is indeed my fault. I hope you can give me a chance to apologize."
Li Jing looked back at Wei Jia, who was rushing over in high heels, and calmly said, "President Wei, actually, there’s no need for you to be so tense. I just feel that since there’s already some unpleasantness because of this issue, continuing the dinner will be awkward. It’s better to end it early so everyone can feel better."
Upon hearing this, Wei Jia closely examined Li Jing’s gaze, confirming that he wasn’t as angry as she imagined, which caused a doubt to arise within her heart, but then she suddenly understood.
"It seems President Li truly views life as a game. These matters don’t seem like things worth paying particular attention to in your eyes, do they?"
"I wouldn’t call it a game of life. I just think that since I have money now, life should be free and unrestrained. There’s no need to wrong myself anymore. Don’t you think so, President Wei?"
Seeing the casual and carefree look in Li Jing’s eyes, Wei Jia’s gaze shifted slightly. She didn’t answer his question but instead asked, "In your heart, is a friend like me mean nothing, does it matter or not?"
Hearing this, Li Jing couldn’t help but let out a small laugh, "Then in President Wei’s eyes, does a friend like me matter or not?"
Originally intending to determine Li Jing’s attitude towards her, Wei Jia suddenly realized it was her who had first used him today. The delicate and icy expression on her face changed slightly, and then she took a breath and looked at Li Jing again:
"I do consider you a very special friend, but I shouldn’t have treated you as I treat other friends. That’s my problem."
Li Jing didn’t rush to reply but looked into Wei Jia’s sincere gaze for several seconds before smiling, "Well, thank you, President Wei, for holding me in such high regard."
