Eternal Love: A Love Story-Chapter 39 - Is She Really Innocent

As Xinyi entered the floor, everyone went there to ask for her help. Because of her relations with the boss with also good and she is also his sister in law. Though she is the stepsister of his wife, but he never treated her badly. Even she was recently got promoted. It must be because the boss favors her and she held an important position in his heart. So she always respected her and tried to curry favor from her.

She looked at their worried faces and smiled at them and said " Don't worry guys. I'll talk to him and see what can happen but I am not sure if he could postpone the meeting.

She went and knocked on the door of Liwei's office, he said "come in". Then she went in with a cup of coffee and some files in her hands.

She said " Good afternoon Sir".

Though she prefers calling him Liwei but he didn't allow her to call him like that so she had to call him sir. What 'sir', it feels so distant. She loved Liwei before and because of him, she joined Jin corporation to get close to him. She always worked diligently to get noticed by him but she had never thought that Ming's grandfather will fix her marriage with him. And she would become his sister in law instead of his wife. She really hated that Ming to the core.

' How could she take my place. She doesn't even deserve to be called Mrs. Jin'.

When he turned, he saw Xinyi and a cup of coffee and files in her hands and said with a blank expression, " keep them down. What is it?"

She said, " Ah, it's nothing important. It just I heard that the elder sister woke up and we were not able to visit her. And Dad also missed her so much. We were so worried about her. So Dad wanted to invite you and elder sister for dinner. " she deliberately paused and said with her head down, 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

" We know that sister doesn't treat me as a sister but I always treated her as my elder sister. I was so worried when she tried to attempt suicide. I know that she is emotional and sometimes behaves rudely but you should not take it to heart. Please don't be angry with her. I will tell sister how much you care for him and was worried when she was in a coma."

She said with such an innocent face that others will think she truly cares for her sister. But it was exactly different from what it looks. She was mocking Ming while showing her righteous and filial younger sister while she is a rude and unfilial elder sister.

Liwei looked at her with a blank expression. Before he never cared much about Ming's family background. He knows that Ming changed drastically after she woke up from the coma. But she didn't ask for her family. Leaving her step-sister or mother, she didn't even ask for her biological father. Even at his house, she cried uncontrollably seeing father Jin. That was the time, that he felt something was amiss. He thought that everything is not as simple as it seems.

He recalled the time when Ming was in a coma, they didn't visit her because they were worried about her. Instead, they went to Liwei to cry that how she is half-dead and has smudged the reputation of Jin and the Xie family. She had let him down. How could be she so coward to attempt suicide. She was already in this state, and they were cursing her instead of praying for her well being.

She even accused Xinyi to try to seduce Liwei and ruined the reputation of Xinyi. For compensation they wanted, Xinyi to get married to Liwei. They said that they wanted Xinyi to correct the mistakes made by Ming.

At that time he felt disgusted at their behavior. Though before he never treated Ming as his wife, but he could not listen to talk about her wife like this. And that too they were her parents but were cursing to die and even she is in coma, they were trying him to marry Xinyi. How spineless.

So he asked Gu Shao to investigate the incident of Ming's suicide attempt. And what happened to her that night and whom she met. He wanted to know,' Is this Xinyi really as innocent as she looks?'
