Evershining Stars, Everlasting Love novel Chapter 27

I changed my phone number, knowing that I had to leave myself no chance of getting back to Vince Yi again.

Qiang called me , asked what is my connection to Vince and said president Yi of Weisi group call him to ask where I am. I answered neither.

But he gave my number away to Vince, though I had seen it coming since he had never been reliable. Fortunately, he knew nothing about the relationship between me and Vince, otherwise all my efforts would end up in vain.

It was midnight when Vince called me. I didn’t answer, but he kept calling, his number shown on my phone stayed there for at least minutes.

There was nothing I could do but answered and was met with a familiar and sonorous voice.

“Where are you?”

Holding the phone near my ear, I said nothing.

“Come back to me, Nance...” He sounded drunk, his voice was trembling.

I covered my mouth resisting my sorrow, but eventually I couldn’t help but asked:”Are you drunk?”

“Where are you...I’ll come to you, soon.” Exclaimed Vince, my voice seemed to have irritate him,”Why do you do this to me, Nance! What have I done to deserve this!”

“Let it go, Vince! I’m not worth it...” My voice and my tears lost control at the same time. I bit my lips hard, trying to paralyze the pain in my heart.

“Let me decide that for myself! Where are you!” He shouted again.

“Just...take care of yourself...” I made up my mind and hung up the phone, powered off my phone then sat on the bed, looked outside the window and let my tears drop like waterfall as the stars were blinking in the silent night sky.

Nance, it will all be fine.

I couldn’t recall when did I fall asleep, maybe it was when I ran out of strength to cry anymore. I woke up and 9am, after which I washed myself up, started making my breakfast while surfing the news on job-hunting website. There came someone knocking on the door, and I was sure it was Yingzi.

I put down the phone and open the door. It was her with her two sons, they came visiting lest that I may feel lonely, probably.

Kids started running around as they stepped inside, Yingzi remained at the entrance, smiled to me and said:”Knock knock.”

“You’re there, just come in.” Who else could it be anyway?

“Come on, girl, you promised you’re going to meet him.” She frowned and looked quite mysterious, took me by my hand when I turned around.

“Yingzi, I’m not in the mood. Why don’t you tell me who’s there?” I replied, irritated.

She turned and took a glance at somewhere and said:”Does it really need to take that long to park a car?”

“Who’s there, Yingzi?” I can’t recall any promise from yesterday. But suddenly, a name hit my mind:”Wait...Fatty?”

Yingzi snapped her finger and said:”Bingo.”

“I should’ve got someone here to make a bigger entrance for him, then.”

But no sooner did I finish my words than I heard a dynamic and beautiful voice:”Woah, who’s talking behind my back?”

Dressed in perfect suit and tie, a stylish and gorgeous man showed up from the staircase, smiled at me as he stopped at Yingzi’s side.

I was shocked, looked to Yingzi and asked:”This is...”

Yingzi turned to the man, giggled and said:”See? I told you she’s not going to recognize you.”

I fixed my eyes on this good-looking, five-four man and uttered:”Fa...fatty?”

He smiled in confidence and replied:”I’m Zhiyu Yin. It’s been so long, Nance.”

I would never recognize him on the street until he walks up and tell me who he is, I almost doubted whether he had gone through a plastic surgery. A chubby fatty turned into a Beckham-level handsome man, no wonder Yingzi kept talking about him yesterday.

“Come...come in.” I stuttered and let them in.

It was a great change in both his look and his temperament, three years ago I was still calling him fatty. What had he gone through in these years and what started it?
