The Devil who devoured Snow White

When he heard what his wife stated, even Yong Liwei's eyes widened in skepticism. He was about to ask who told her but his doubt was soon cleared up when his wife showed the message to him.

[Tian Ruyi: Si Hongqi's gay! *crying sticker*] 

Along with her message, a photo was attached. It was obviously taken from Tian Ruyi's balcony. In the photo, Si Hongqi's back was seen and because of the angle of how it was taken, he looked like he was kissing another man.

"Are you sure that man is Si Hongqi?" Yong Liwei asked, raising a brow at her wife.

"Of course!" Lu Mengjie was quick to dial Tian Ruyi. "Yiyi, are you sure that's him?" She inquired the moment the call was answered. She even put her phone on speaker so Yong Liwei could hear her response.

"I'm a hundred percent sure! He visited me last night so I know!" Tian Ruyi was so sure about what she saw.. Her eyes couldn't be mistaken. 

"See? I told you that she's sure!" Lu Mengjie told her husband. 

Yong Liwei sighed. "Maybe it's just a misunderstanding? What if it was just an accident? You know, Si Hongqi stepping on something and slipping."

"That would be a sight to behold but sadly, no. It's not a misunderstanding. I saw Si Hongqi approach the man and kissed him!" Tian Ruyi exclaimed.

Lu Mengjie sighed. "Fuck. I never thought that he would end up becoming gay. Do you know who the other guy is?" 

"No. It's my first time seeing him," she answered. "But he looks cute."

"Cute?!" Lu Mengjie was already shipping her childhood friend to Tian Ruyi so she was quite disappointed to find out that Si Hongqi became gay. "I'm going to look into this, Yiyi, don't worry. I'm going to help you get his attention back!"

"Eh?" She was puzzled by her words. Did Bai Jingye tell her about her feelings for Si Hongqi?! How could he betray her?! 

Tian Ruyi tried to remain calm and instead, asked in confusion, "what do you mean, Mengmeng?"

Lu Mengjie became cautious all of a sudden. If she told her friend that she was shipping her with Si Hongqi, Tian Ruyi might end up rejecting her idea, after all, she was a woman who valued her single life. Lu Mengjie knew that she was not the type of person who was interested in being in a relationship or else, she would have long fallen for Bai Jingye.

"Oh, it's nothing, nothing," she lied. "I just became curious about the man that Sisi-gege has fallen for."

"Count me in! I want to know his type too!" Tian Ruyi exclaimed from the other line.

"Oho?" Lu Mengjie's brows wiggled in amusement. Did she hear her right?

"W-what I mean is…" She pursed her lips and tried to come up with an excuse, but Lu Mengjie beat her to it before she could even think of one.

"Is he someone you like?" It wouldn't be surprising if Tian Ruyi ended up falling for Si Hongqi. He was a charismatic and handsome man that was why she included him in her harem. He may not be one of the seven sins but he was above them, her right-hand man. 

Hearing Lu Mengjie's inquiry, Tian Ruyi was quick to understand the situation. No, Bai Jingye didn't betray her at all. It was probably just one of Lu Mengjie's speculation.

"W-what? No way!" She blew raspberries before she continued to deny, "t-there's no way I'll like that man!"

"You're stuttering." She pointed.

"S-so?" Shit. She wanted to slap her tongue for not cooperating. Why was she suddenly feeling nervous? It was not like she had never lied! She cleared her throat to regain her composure. "Anyway, I should end the call now. I'm a bit busy right now. Bye, Mengmeng."

Lu Mengjie lowered her phone and stared at the screen. The side of her lips curled up into a wide grin. Tian Ruyi may be denying it now but soon, Lu Mengjie believed that her friend would soon realize her feelings for her childhood friend.

Yong Liwei cleared his throat to get his wife's attention. "You should finish up your food, sweetheart."

She soon realized that her husband's plate was already emptied by him. "Just leave your dish there, Liwei. I'll wash it together with mine. You should go and get ready for work too."

…

"I'm so dead." Tian Ruyi sighed. She could only hope that Lu Mengjie would forget about what she said earlier. Would it be weird if she told her that she liked her childhood friend? She knew that Lu Mengjie and Si Hongqi had a past together.

Speaking of the past… "Shit…" She mumbled. She just remembered that she should warn Lu Mengjie about Bai Jingye's half-sister! But… Lu Mengjie sounded fine earlier. Surprisingly, she was able to hold a short conversation with Yong Liwei. He even sounded… nice?

It has been days since Cecilia asked for Yong Liwei's address from Bai Jingye. Maybe she forgot? Or maybe Lu Mengjie had already handled her? There were countless possibilities. Cecilia might have changed her mind after finding out that Yong Liwei was actually married to another woman.

Should she still tell her about it?

She stared at her phone for a few seconds before she breathed out a sigh. "Nah, it's Mengmeng, I'm sure she can deal with that woman even without my help."

Ting!

Tian Ruyi checked the message she received. Her eyes widened the moment she saw Si Hongqi's name.

[Si Hongqi: Can we meet later?]

Oh shit! Did he find out that she caught him kissing another man?!

Ting!

Another message came from him.

[Si Hongqi: Tonight. I'll pick you up.]

She would rather avoid him than meet him only to be threatened for what she saw. 

She sent him a reply: [Sorry. I'm busy today.]

[Then when are you available?]

This time, Tian Ruyi didn't send him a reply. She ignored him after reading his message.
