This is a soft, glabrous, somewhat succulent, procumbent herb, about a ft high, found in a bamboo thicket.
Is it O. alata of FI. According to the Bengal Plants O. alata = O. paniculata L. = O. biflora L. of GRIN and The Plant List (not of FBI). ?
efi page on Oldenlandia biflora ?
I am not sure if the plant posted in the efI link you've pasted in this thread is a succulent one. So, the link, https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/r/rubiaceae/oldenlandia/oldenlandia-biflora, doesn't help me.
According to the Bengal Plants O. paniculata L. is a diffuse or erect succulent weed. Dr. Prain equates it with O. alata of Flora Indica. 
O. alata is erect, four sided, leaves opposite, sub-sessile, elliptic, smooth, panicles terminal, corol campanulate......
Now, only experts can say if my plant has those above mentioned features.
I think appears close to Leptopetalum pteritum (Blume) Neupane & N.Wikstr. as per images, details and references herein.
I think more closer to images at Leptopetalum biflorum (L.) Neupane & N.Wikstr. rather than those at Leptopetalum pteritum (Blume) Neupane & N.Wikstr.
I agree with you
