Chapter 497: Chapter 498: T Jing, Tang Wu is Still Alive
Ye Tiao saw Shi Lingyan and Tang Wu looking like they were at this very moment and found it extremely irritating.
There was a time when she often saw Tang Wu and Shi Lingyan sitting together just like this, feeding each other affectionately, bite by bite.
Only back then, Tang Wu was still Tang Wu. Now, her appearance had shockingly changed to Shi Mei.
Just as Ye Tiao thought of approaching with displeasure, she felt a resentful gaze coming from her side.
Tang Jingming’s face looked like a resentful wife as she watched her with a hint of bitterness.
Ye Tiao, puzzled and brusquely, asked, "What?!"
Tang Jingming immediately shifted her gaze away and sat down in front of Shi Lingyan, saying, "How long have you been waiting?"
Shi Mei yawned lazily, "Not long."
Shi Lingyan was in an unusually good mood and even took the initiative to pour them tea before taking the menu and passing it to them.
Tang Jingming looked at Shi Lingyan as if he were seeing a ghost.
And Ye Tiao, her expression suddenly turned ugly, said, "So, did you rekindle old flames last night?"
Tang Jingming was drinking water and almost choked upon hearing this.
That was too direct!
Ye Tiao flipped through the menu, growing more and more irritated until she finally turned to Shi Mei and huffed, "Didn’t you say it was over with him?"
Ye Tiao’s expression wasn’t looking great as she stared at Shi Mei, her face full of rage from betrayal.
Silently, Shi Lingyan turned to look at Shi Mei.
Shi Mei got up and walked towards Ye Tiao.
Tang Jingming instinctively stood up and sat next to Shi Lingyan, pretending to look seriously at the menu and asking Ye Tiao, "Do you want jujube cake?"
"I do!" Ye Tiao angrily gulped down some tea, "Make it two!"
Tang Jingming: "..." He was only asking out of politeness.
Shi Mei sat down next to Ye Tiao, leaned in a bit, and whispered, "He knows."
Ye Tiao twitched her eyelid, turned sideways, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Shi Mei sighed lightly, "It means that he knows everything you know."
Ye Tiao’s eyes widened, and she suddenly turned to look at Shi Lingyan.
She noticed Shi Lingyan leisurely sipping tea; her face twisted into an expression of anger, and she gritted her teeth at Shi Mei, "How much does he know?"
Shi Mei sighed again, "Whatever you know, he knows."
What you don’t know, he also knows.
Only she couldn’t possibly say that out loud. If Ye Tiao found out, it would feel like being skinned alive.
At that moment, Ye Tiao’s heart felt blocked, and she angrily exclaimed, "Tang Wu! You trust him? You actually trust him??"
Shi Mei looked at her and whispered softly, "I trust him, but I trust you more."
It’s just that you don’t think things through, so there are some things she dared not reveal completely.
Shi Mei sighed, feeling a bit guilty, and whispered, "There are some things you can’t hide forever, so we might as well lay them out openly."
"Is that your reason for reigniting old flames with him?" Ye Tiao glared, her fury causing her chest to heave.
Tang Jingming, on the other hand, seemed to catch an important point and pressed, "Tang Wu? What do you mean by Tang Wu?"
Shi Lingyan turned to look at Tang Jingming, then at Ye Tiao, and finally, his gaze landed on Shi Mei’s face.
Shi Mei seemed to hesitate for a moment, then turned to look at Tang Jingming and asked, "Do you believe that Tang Wu is still alive?"
Tang Jingming let out a ’ha’ sound, instinctively wanting to deny it.
But thinking back on the several times Ye Tiao blurted out ’Tang Wu’ unintentionally, and it seemed that every time it was in Shi Mei’s presence, and now to ask such a question... what is this?
Were they trying to treat him like a fool, telling him that Shi Mei was Tang Wu?
