Chapter 859 Turn of Events - A Marriage Proposal at the Door (1)
Seeing Liu Tinglan with red and swollen eyes, nearly heartbroken, Mo Yan was taken aback. She had thought her dear friend had suffered some great blow she was unaware of. After Father Liu and Mother Liu left, fretting, she couldn’t wait to drag Liu Tinglan into her own room.
Before Mo Yan could even ask, Liu Tinglan took out a handkerchief and, while wiping away tears, complained pitifully, "Storybooks are indeed full of lies. Chilies don’t work, and pickled chilies are even worse. Look, my eyes are nearly blinded by the burn. Luckily, I fooled my parents, otherwise, my suffering would have been for nothing."
After listening, Mo Yan was speechless. So the whole pitiful act was just a façade. With such acting skills, if she were in modern times, she could easily outshine those pretty-faced, talentless Little Flowers.
But really, you torment yourself like this and then blame it all on the chilies? Is that really okay?
Seeing her look, Liu Tinglan knew exactly what Mo Yan was thinking and switched to a mode of self-pity with no pressure: "Wuu, Yanyan, I’ve been jilted by my fiancé, and those shameless people have falsely accused me, throwing dirt on my name. Now that I’m so miserable, can’t you at least comfort me properly?"
Watching her friend’s notable performance, Mo Yan had intended just to watch, but seeing the tears fall like they cost nothing and her cries growing more and more wretched, she couldn’t tell if it was real or fake. Her heart softened, and she approached to comfort Liu Tinglan, wrapping an arm around her shoulder, "Enough now, stop crying. Such a scumbag isn’t worth your sorrow. Now that you’ve seen his true face, isn’t that a good thing?"
