What else could it be but jealousy?
Shi Ping was the one who couldn't accept the truth the most.
She was already heartbroken after being dumped by her boyfriend, but now she's being told that she didn't actually have a boyfriend at all, and that it was all a fake friend trying to scam her out of money.
She just couldn't accept it!
So, before Zhao Xing was sent away to serve her sentence, Shi Ping went to see her.
...
Why did you do that?
Looking at Zhao Xing, who was no longer glamorous and looked more than ten years older than usual, Shi Ping asked.
However, Zhao Xing only glanced at her coldly after hearing this, without replying.
Seeing this, Shi Ping said again, "If you need money, you can tell me. You're my best friend, and I'll definitely lend it to you. But why did you lie to me? You've been playing me for so many years, why?!"
Zhao Xing laughed upon hearing this. "Ha, a friend? You still don't think I consider you a friend, do you?"
Shi Ping couldn't understand, "Haven't we been friends since we were kids?"
"That's just what you think!"
Zhao Xing sneered, "What's so good about being your friend? Everyone around you has praised you since you were little. You're beautiful, you're good at studying, and your family doesn't discriminate against girls. I'm just an accessory to you."
To highlight your goodness, you have to be the main flower and I the supporting leaf. Only in this way can I be given things by you that you don't even look at.
Besides, I was the one who met Chen Gui first after graduating from high school, but he became your boyfriend. Would I be friends with someone who stole my sweetheart?
Shi Ping was surprised to hear this. "Why would you think that? What do you mean by 'red flowers and green leaves'? I've never thought that way. You're also very outstanding. Besides, what I gave you wasn't charity; I just wanted to make your life better."
As for your claim that you met Chen Gui first, I don't know that. You never told me that. My relationship with Chen Gui was arranged by a matchmaker!
"Didn't I already tell you I have someone I like?"
"Yes, but didn't you say you didn't like it anymore later?"
"That's because he's with you now, you stole him away!" Zhao Xing said hysterically, her eyes filled with hatred.
Shi Ping frowned. "You must be mistaken. My husband Chen doesn't know you at all. The first time he saw you next to me, he even asked me what your name was. It was obviously the first time we met."
Zhao Xing paused after hearing this, recalling the scene of her first meeting with Chen Gui.
At that time, he was their homeroom teacher's nephew, and she saw him when he came to the school to see her.
She had indeed fallen in love with him at first sight, but before she could confess her feelings, he became Shi Ping's boyfriend. However, she didn't believe he didn't recognize her, since she had passed by him several times.
He immediately sneered, "Stop making excuses. If you didn't realize you were in the wrong, why would you have given me the post office job? It was clearly Teacher Chen who found this job for you!"
Shi Ping was incredulous upon hearing this. "So that's what you were thinking! But you were the one who cried in front of me, saying that if you didn't have a job, your family would marry you off to a divorced man with a child to pay for your younger brother's dowry!"
"I gave you my job because I felt sorry for you, but you actually think it's my way of making amends?"
At this point, Shi Ping finally realized that the friend she knew didn't really consider her a friend; it was all a pretense.
Moreover, after saying so much, she still showed no remorse and kept making excuses, so Shi Ping didn't want to stay any longer.
"Fine, let's just say it was all my wishful thinking. From now on, we're not friends anymore. You'd better take care of yourself from now on."
After saying that, he turned and left without looking at her again, while behind him came Zhao Xing's hysterical curses and the police's reprimands...
Shi Ping didn't turn around, but her shoulders slumped considerably...
