ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY

In the morning the next day, when Xie Ming woke up, she was feeling fresh and better.

She looked at her side and found that Liwei was not there.

She lazily sat up and get off the bed.

She walked towards the bathroom but stopped in her steps when her gaze landed on the note on the bedside table.

She picked the yellow-colored sticking note which said, " Come down my sleeping beauty. Your prince is waiting for you at  breakfast."

She chuckled when she read the silly note and went to the bathroom to get ready.

….

After getting ready, she checked herself for the last time in the mirror as she fixed her hair and went downstairs after picking up her phone from the side table.

When she walked downstairs, she saw everyone was waiting for her on the dining table.

She felt bad as everyone has been waiting for her. She was tired and woke up late in the morning.

Even Liwei didn't wake her up.

He doesn't want to wake her up as she was sleeping peacefully and felt that she needs more rest.

She hurriedly went downstairs towards the dining table and went to Mother Jin, " Mother. I am sorry for letting you all wait for me. I woke up late in the morning." she said apologetically.

Mother Jin who was placing the dishes on the table turned to look at Xie Ming and said coolly, " Oh common. You don't need to do all this formality. What's the big deal of waking up late."

" Young people should sleep some more." she winked at her as she said her words.

Xie Ming looked at her in confusion. Then she looked at everyone. They were giving her strange looks and giggling.

' What happened to everyone? What are they thinking that they are laughing like this?' she looked at Liwei to ask what happened.

Everyone's expression seemed strange.

Liwei who was looking at her shook his head as if saying to not mind them.

She tilted her head in confusion.

'What is this situation?'

After helping Mother Jin, she sat on the chair beside Liwei. She hit her elbow on his arm and said in low voice, " What's happening? Why everyone is looking at me like this?"

Jin Liang who was sitting opposite of her couldn't control himself and spoke, " Why are you acting so oblivious. Xie Ming, I never thought that you could betray me so easily." he said as he felt wronged.

She furrowed her brows while trying to decipher the meaning behind his words.

" What do you mean?"

Mother Jin slapped Jin Liang's hand to shut him up.

But Jin Liang looked at Xie Ming and continued, " Xie Ming, I thought that at least you're loyal to me. But you betrayed me and went to brother's side."

She blinked her eyes at him in confusion.

' What nonsense is he talking about?'

Jin Liang got annoyed seeing her innocent expression and said, " Why are you pretending to be innocent. I saw everything last night." he said confidently which made grandfather spit the water out that he was drinking.

Even Mother Jin was shocked by hearing his son's words.

Xie Ming's eyes widened in horror as she asked him, " What did you see?" 

Her heart started to beat faster. She has no idea what this stupid brother in law has told everyone.

She turned to look at Liwie who was silently eating his breakfast.

She became speechless when she saw his calm and composed expressions.

Jin Liang looked at Xie Ming and snorted, " Hah. So you want to pretend to be innocent. Eh?"

" Couldn't you wait for few days before betraying me. Didn't you promise me that you will not sleep with brother for a few days? Didn't you promised that you will punish him for wronging me?" he cried out in frustration.

Suddenly the atmosphere in the room became cold and awkward.

Mother Jin and grandfather and Father Jin glanced at each other in awkwardness.

' This stupid Liang...don't know when to stop his mouth?' everyone was scolding him inwardly.

Everyone knows what he had seen last night. He told them everything about how Liwei tortured him to keep him away from Xie Ming and how Xie Ming betrayed him.

He had told them everything about how Liwei pulled her into the room. He saw them going in together when he came outside for a while.

When Jin Liang told Mother Jin in the morning, she couldn't stop laughing. 

Even Father Jin and Grandfather were also happy when he told them getting no reaction from Mother Jin. Everyone was happy that their relationship was progressing well. 

Because only then they will get their grandchild.

But Liang was upset seeing their happy reactions instead of angry.

He wanted them to be on his side and wanted to get upset with Liwei and Xie Ming with him. But instead of upset, they told him to let things go.

…

When Xie Ming heard his words, her mind went numb.

She doesn't remember how many times she was embarrassed like this in just two days.

It was only the start of the second day of her in Jin Mansion but seems like she should get used to this kind of atmosphere daily.

Jin Liang saw the guilty look in her eyes and haughtily continued, " I saw when you both went into the room. Shouldn't you go to the guest room or send him there to keep your promise with me?" he unreasonably argued with her.

Xie Ming didn't say anything instead she kept looking at him in frustration.

' How I wish If I could strangle this stupid Liang?' she was feeling embarrassed the way he told everyone.

Seeing everyone's expressions she understood that he had broadcasted yesterday night's incident.

Before she could say anything, she heard a masculine and calm voice from beside her, " When did she promise you anything? And why would I sleep in the guest room? She is my wife and that was my room. So you stay out of it." he coldly told Liang.

" Don't forget that she is my wife. Why would she fight with me for you? If you feel that wrong then get yourself a girlfriend first and then we will talk about it." he said nonchalantly.

Mother Jin felt that her son was too savage right now.

He was not embarrassed to say these words. He knows how to mark his territory.

Jin Liang's blood was boiling in anger. His brother has hit the nail on his sensitive spot.

Indeed he was upset that nobody was on his side. Even his family was supporting Xie Ming. He feels alone in this big family.

' Does having a girlfriend is such a big deal?' Jin Liang wondered in his heart.

Grandfather laughed lightly to lighten the moment, " Okay. Now stop arguing. Liang. You stay out of your brother's private matters." he told him off.

Though he also complimented Liang for telling him everything but he was now behaving like a matured elder in front of others.

Even Mother Jin joined in, " Liang. What kind of behavior is this? Is this how you talk to your sister in law? Quickly apologize to her now." she glared at him.

Liang was speechless seeing the changing attitude of everyone in front of Xie Ming.

He turned to look at Father Jin to ask for support but he just turned his head away from him.

Liang: " -_- "

They all enjoyed it when he told them the incident but now scolding him.

' They have no morality. They change sides like the color of the traffic light.'

" Hmph." Jin Liang turned his head away in annoyance.

He can't believe that his whole family betrayed him in an instant.

Whereas Xie Ming didn't dared to lift her head.

Though nothing happened between the last time, but she was too embarrassed to face them.

Jin Liang's words had made it sure that something had happened last night.

Her face was blushed red in embarrassment.

Mother Jin looked at her and said, " Xie Ming. don't worry about his words. You eat your breakfast." she patted on her shoulder.

Xie Ming awkwardly smiled a little as she picked up her chopsticks.

When she looked at all the dishes, her hands stopped in the air.

All the dishes were nutritional and good for warming the body. 

' So they think that we did it last night.' she felt like crying right now seeing all the dishes.

' Both brothers are the same. They don't know what the word shameless means?'

They always behave shamelessly and make her embarrassed.

The breakfast was suffocating and awkward for her while Liwei ate his breakfast like it was nothing.

He was extremely relaxed and calmed.

On the other hand, the other guy was giving her strange looks while eating as if telling her that he won't forgive her for betraying him.

Xie Ming: " -_- "

' Since when did I promised him anything? This guy has a wild imagination.' she was wondering what made him misunderstood her.
