250 What’s There to Talk About? 2
Tang Moyu scoffed inwardly at that thought. If it was her and Feng Tianyi, she would probably not hear the end of it as the devil would surely give her a piece of his mind, reminding her not to be reckless.
Ah, that was easier said than done in her opinion. Didn\'t Feng Tianyi know it\'s hard to control one\'s temper when there\'s an idiot who loved to keep on testing it?
On the other hand, Li Meili didn\'t bother to hide her irritation over the matter. She had a bad feeling about it. Maybe the rumors about Feng Tianhua and Xing Yiyue\'s marriage being on the rocks had a basis. Wasn\'t there a saying, that there\'s no smoke without a fire?
\'Heh, karma is a bitch.\' She thought.
If Feng Tianhua hadn\'t cast aside Tang Moyu and let his wife scheme against the empress, he wouldn\'t have to face problems one after another. Did he really think that managing a huge company was as easy as walking in the park? Didn\'t Tang Moyu spend years to reestablish their connections with their old partners while he wasted time chasing skirts?
It\'s true, they were not in love nor were they in a romantic relationship with each other. But although their marriage arrangement was purely business, didn\'t Tang Moyu at least deserve to be respected after all the things she\'d done to help him?
Did Feng Tianhua finally realize how vital Tang Moyu was to keep his family business flourishing? That after she left, everything was now thrown in his way, everyone expecting him to perform at the empress\'s level?
When they reached the restaurant, the staff immediately opened the doors when they saw Li Meili walking towards them with Tang Moyu. The two had been regulars here, so they were also familiar with the empress, who was very generous to give tips to those who served and prepared their meals.
So it wasn\'t surprising that some of the staff, as well as those in the kitchen, always went an extra mile to please their Miss Meili and Tang Moyu whenever they came for a visit.
Li Meili regretted not seeing them today. Looking at her best friend\'s little buns, she felt like she was looking at her own children, growing up under her care. From the moment they were born, to their first steps and first words, Li Meili had been there to witness all of it.
This was why Tang Moyu was confident to leave her children in her care once in a while, because she knew how much her best friend loved her little buns. It was literally to the moon and back kind of love.
"They\'re fine. A little nervous, but fine." Tang Moyu assured her. "Didn\'t I send you their picture that I snapped this morning?" She raised a brow at her friend.
Li Meili sighed dejectly and pulled out her phone, opening her wechat app to take another look at the same photo her friend was talking about.
"You know this isn\'t enough for me, Moyu. I want to see them." She whined. "I want to have little buns as cute as yours too!"
"Then go try to settle down. But I know when I say this, you wouldn\'t." The empress thanked the waitress who served her meal and started eating without preamble, laughing a little when she saw Li Meili scowled at her suggestion. "For someone who dates a lot, you sure are allergic to settling down."
"No way." Li Meili huffed and stabbed the ice in her tall glass with its straw. "You don\'t understand, Moyu. Dating and marriage are totally different. While some date with the prospect of marriage in their mind, I don\'t."
"Why?" The empress was aware that Li Meili never dated a man for too long and broke up with them once she felt that they were asking more of her. What made Li Meili act like this? She wondered.
Best friend she may be, but Li Meili rarely talked about the men she dated over the years unless she wanted to share something, like that one guy she dated while they were in New York, only to find out that he was only dating Li Meili so his conversative family wouldn\'t suspect about his sexuality.
Li Meili shrugged and looked away, her eyes hiding something that Tang Moyu had seen every time she asked about her boyfriends. There\'s this particular man that she knew had managed to affect Li Meili, but that was over five years ago and she had no idea of the man\'s identity.
Did her best friend ever loved a man so much before that no matter how many men she\'d met so far, she wouldn\'t allow herself to settle down? Tang Moyu wondered.
