Little Melon (EDITED)

After Li Bingbing graduated from college, she moved out of her mother's place since she wanted to be independent. Her mother thought that it was because of her job that was why, it was fine for her.

A week after graduation, Li Bingbing was invited by Xia Meilin, her best friend, to the high school reunion that everyone prepared. Li Bingbing was supposed to attend the party that was prepared for her class' reunion but then she received a message from her mother, Mu Xijiu, that her brother-in-law died of an accident and because of that, they were coming back to attend the funeral that was scheduled on the same day of the reunion.

In the end, Li Bingbing wasn't able to attend the reunion since she accompanied her mother and new father to their province.

She stayed with them for a few weeks before she returned to her place in the Imperial city.

Just like usual, she distracted herself by playing online games. When she was bored, she would challenge the top 15 hackers in the country and every time she succeeded in beating them, she would earn money. Because of that, Li Bingbing wasn't short of money.

Her codename 'FuccU' soon became famous in the online world. She would even accept a job from companies that wanted to have their security programs checked.

This was Li Bingbing's job without leaving her room for even a second.

As for her food, she would only have to call the person that Shi Fen, her stepfather, assigned as her personal guard to bring food for her.

Her mother was able to find the right man for her and it was none other than her best friend. Li Bingbing saw that her mother's best friend was really genuine with his feelings that was why she has accepted him as her father. But of course, the story on how it happened would be for later.

Of course, she blackmailed her personal guard, Qiao Man so that Li Bingbing's life wouldn't be reported to her parents or else they would surely try to get her out of her place.

Xia Meilin didn't contact her and Li Bingbing never thought of this since just like what she said to her in their past, she was not a high maintenance friend.

Although when Xia Meilin called her, Li Bingbing was surprised to see her holding a baby in the video call.

"OMG, Meimei, what kind of sorcery is this? You got married and you didn't invite me?!" This was the first thing that Li Bingbing said when she saw the adorable baby on the screen.

Xia Meilin smiled a bit when she saw her reaction, to be honest, she had a hard time telling Li Bingbing about what happened to her that's why it took her a year before she finally gave her a call.

"I'm not married."

"What?! You're not? Then did your boyfriend impreg---"

"I was raped." Xia Meilin said as she lowered her head, staring at her son.

The smile on Li Bingbing's face disappeared, her eyes became cold at what she said, "When did this happen?"

"During our reunion a year ago... It was Lin Qingge who deceived me."

A year ago?! Lin Qingge?! Li Bingbing never expected that Lin Qingge could do something like that. She was kind and friendly and she never thought that such a woman could be evil inside.

"She'll pay for this-"

"She already did." Xia Meilin said as she looked at Li Bingbing with a small smile. "Grandma already made her family pay."

Li Bingbing quickly looked into the News about it and she found out that the Lin family was indeed been destroyed.

Li Bingbing wasn't really fond of checking the News that's why she wasn't able to find out about what was happening around her and she regretted that. She could have done something for Xia Meilin and she could have been beside her throughout her tough times and yet she failed in doing that part.

"Let's forget about it, okay? We cannot change what has already happened."

"Do you know who did this to you?" Li Bingbing asked seriously. If only she could get a name, she could have haunted the man who ruined her best friend.

Xia Meilin shook her head, she knew what Li Bingbing was planning and she wasn't going to allow her to do that since she was afraid that Li Bingbing might get herself in trouble going against the man who raped her. "I don't want to deal with it anymore, Bingbing. I'm trying my best to move on and... I just really want to forget so please, don't ask me about that matter anymore."

Li Bingbing stared at her from the screen and decided not to insist. "Alright, I won't force you to tell it."

Xia Meilin was glad that Li Bingbing was so understanding. She adjusted her son as she carried him, she smiled as she faced her son, "This is my son, Xia Gua."

Li Bingbing blinked a few times when she heard the name of her son, "You... named him after a fruit?"

"My favorite fruit!" Xia Meilin grinned. "Xiao Gua (Little Melon), meet your auntie Bingbing."

"Aguu!"

Li Bingbing's heart trembled when she saw Little Melon reached his tiny hands to her while smiling happily at her.

Since Xia Meilin looked like she didn't have a problem with Little Melon despite being a child born out of a traumatizing experience, Li Bingbing decided to accept the small guy.

"Hi, cupcake~ I'm your auntie Bingbing!" If Xia Meilin and Little Melon were in the same room as Li Bingbing, Li Bingbing would have attacked the little guy already.

"Isn't he cute?" Xia Meilin giggled before she kissed Little Melon's chubby cheek. "My baby is the cutest on earth!"
