The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 534 Her best friend

The following day, Lihua set up her camp once again in the park. Xiao Jian hurriedly came to the park after her school and was relieved to see her.

"You are here today…"

Lihua brightly smiled. "Of course, I will be! Didn't I tell you that I would be here?"

She gave a sad smile. "I…There was one time when I tried to mingle in a group. They looked happy to include me, and we had planned a shopping trip in the mall together. I was waiting for them in front of X station, but…"

"But they gave you the wrong station on purpose and left without you?"

She hit it right on the nail.

Lihua puffed her cheeks. "Hmph! Forget about them. They don't understand that they lost such a good friend."

She bit her lip. "But their group is the most famous girl group in our school…Every girl wants to be a part of it. I wanted to be too…"

Lihua chuckled. "Well sure it looks glamorous being part of a famous group. But do you think their friendship is gonna last after that?"

She furrowed her brows. "Why not? They look so close to each other."

"That's just the outward appearances. I am pretty sure if something were to happen between them, they would throw each other away in an instant. That's not friendship. Such people come together because they want to become popular, and they have something in common that makes them stand out. But once high school is over and they go separate ways, they will just forget about each other."

"Then…"

She smiled. "You know, Xiao Jian? I have a best friend. Her name is Meng Ya. Do you know why she is my best friend?"

She shook her head.

"Hehe so I told you right I was a little chubby but then it got reduced because I sacrificed my food and sleep for a good University?"

She nodded.

"But I didn't get in."

She widened her eyes.

"Haha I couldn't score the cut off marks for my dream University. I kept staring at the results sheet and saw it over and over again, but my name wasn't there. My classmates from my high school who got admission laughed at me a lot saying I am so stupid and dumb. I tried so hard but still didn't get it. At that point, I really thought, 'why don't I have a good brain? Why am I so dumb?'"

Ruru, who was playing with Qingqing, furrowed his brows and looked up at Lihua. His gaze dimmed thinking of people bullying Lihua. He jumped into her lap and hugged her.

"No bullying…" he buried his face in her chest, "Lihua is smart."

Lihua brightened and kissed him. "Aiyaa, you don't have to feel sad! It's all in the past now. Hmph. I don't care about that anymore. Brain is not the only thing you should have!"

Qingqing looked at her in disdain.

Of course, YOU will say that, human.

"Oh so where was I? Yeah so I was quite bummed out by the results and their mocking. It's at that time when a girl my age stepped up. Hahaha, do you know what she did? She took some small stones and started pelting it towards my classmates."

Xiao Jian and Jiang Hua choked.

"Man, they were so angry. They shouted at her but she said, 'You should be careful of dumb people. Dumb people are dumb, so they can do anything. Also a dumb person works very hard. Not like someone who got in through their father's connections.'

The girls were so embarrassed that they ran away. Then she looked at me and said her name is Meng Ya and like me, she failed to get a spot in the college too.

But she said, 'Gosh we are so lucky! The fateful meeting of two dumb girls! Do you wanna be my friend? We will rule this world together with our dumbness! And the world will witness! Even if we are dumb, we would marry the most handsome and intelligent men in this whole world! They will make up for the intelligence we lack haha.'

Xiao Jian - "..."

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Lihua laughed hard. "And I asked where did she get the confidence from? She said it's because I am dumb, I can dream anything!"

Ruru seriously nodded.

"So we became friends and entered the same college. With her, they were the best years of my life. Fooling around, studying together like crazy just before the exams but still failing the tests nevertheless, checking out handsome boys and drooling over them, reading boys love comics till late night, stuffing our stomachs with food wherever we went and standing up for each other whenever the other was bullied…this is what friendship is which never ends even if any phase of your life does."

Xiao Jian felt tears in her eyes listening about Meng Ya.

"And so you see, you don't need a group to have a worthwhile friendship. Sometimes, one is just enough, and one is all what you need."

She nodded as she sniffled.

"Will I…Will I get such a friend like this too?"

Lihua beamed. "Of course! Your true friend will love you nevertheless. You just have to stay the way you are, and one day, you will find that person…or that person will find you~ Even if you wear glasses or even if you are chubby, it wouldn't matter to that person at all. And if it matters to someone, then you know that he or she cannot be your friend."

She pursed her lips. "Your friend Meng Ya…You two become friends because she was *cough* like you…"

She refrained from calling her dumb.

"You two were similar. But will someone different from you like you? What if I never meet someone like Meng Ya or someone who is similar to me?"

Lihua smiled. "The ones who will like you WILL like you whether they are similar or opposite from you. You remember I told Meng Ya saying that she and I would marry the most handsome and intelligent men?"

"Yes."

"It seems impossible, right? I am not so smart, so how would I meet such a man? But I did meet such a man. He is a Godly handsome man and his intelligence is way out of the charts. You will feel that such a man won't even spare me a glance. But that man became my neighbor himself."
