17 Just a silly misunderstanding.

At Daiyu's place, everyone was in a blow after the voice they heard during Chang's conversation with Lifen over the phone. 

They had planned to have a small get together but they were not anymore in such mood. Daiyu was in the biggest trauma. 

Someone who was having the worst feeling among them was Chang. He didn't want to show his emotion so he was quiet but through his eyes, everyone could see his heart and his emotions shattering inside.

At that bleak hour, there was a knock at the door of the room. "What are you knocking for? We don't need anything. Stay away." Daiyu shouted thinking the maid was there to offer services. 

The maid said in a stammering tone, "Sorry for disturbing Young Miss but your friend Ms.Lifen has arrived and she is looking for you." 

Lifen was confused with Daiyu's seething tone.

The door flung open as soon as the maid finished her words. Someone grabbed Lifen with her wrist and pulled her inside then the door was again slammed shut. 

This happened in the speed of light which made the maid even more scared.

In the next moment, Lifen was sitting on the bed. Daiyu had grabbed her wrist roughly and made her sit on the bed in a rough manner.  

Lifen wasn't able to get what made Daiyu so furious. "Hey! what is this?"

Lifen shouted but then stopped halfway as she saw extreme gazes falling on her. 

All this while Chang was standing in the corner of the room expressionless.

"Are you really asking us? What are you pretending for? We should be the one asking for your explanation... What was that before? Who was that guy before? You had a date and you haven't bothered to tell me about it." Daiyu exploded at once.

Now Lifen understood what was happening around her. 

Then someone spoke in an excited tone, "Daiyu, why are you so angry? It's good, she finally got someone. Lifen tell me something honestly, he must be very handsome, right? Otherwise, how can he be able to take away your heart?"

"To hell with his looks, it does not work in the long run… Tell me, will he be able to pamper you highly?" someone else asked that. 

Daiyu was more frustrated with those talks, she was not able to control her words and burst again in a loud pitch, "Hey! All of you just be quiet from talking about someone's looks and his fortune at this moment. And you! Answer me, when were you going to tell me about that sweetheart of yours? After returning from your honeymoon?"

"You are bullying me in the absence of Guang. I am going to complain." Lifen pouted. 

Then she made a cute face to calm Daiyu's anger. It has always worked before but to her surprise, it didn't work this time.

Daiyu was at the peak of her rage, she asked everyone to leave and announced the party was canceled. If they wanted to blame anyone, they should just blame Lifen for it. 

Lifen held back from telling everything to Daiyu because she didn't want to speak the things in front of everyone, especially Chang. She knew that even if he was not saying anything, he was suffering an emotional breakdown inside. 

It will be easier for him to move on if he believes that she has someone else in her life.

After everyone left, Daiyu sat on the bed and breathed in relaxation. "What are you here for? Aren't you going to leave?" She sighed.

 Lifen spoke in a sad tone. "Why would I leave? Haven't we already planned to have a night stay at your place? And now you are planning to send me away."

When she saw Daiyu wasn't responding to her, she realized she had underestimated her vexation.  

She pulled the hem of Daiyu's sleeves and calmly looked at her, "Come and Sit here. I will tell you everything.  It's nothing you are thinking of. Just a silly misunderstanding".
