Chapter 21
In the club's dormitory, Dong Fang, who had just returned not long ago, received another call from Yang Meili.
"What time is it? I'm going to rebel if I don't come back!" The two of them went on a date without any worries. After working overtime, he drove Zhao Yiran's car to take her back.
I just happened to have relevant information about this show in my hand. I waited left and right and the pointer almost reached 11, but no one came back.
The man whose buttocks had just touched the bed looked confused when asked, "I sent her home forty minutes ago."
"Why don't you send me home? I'm at her home right now. Why haven't I seen her?"
Dong Fang cursed in a low voice, thinking that it was haunted or hallucinating. Even though he was worried, he sent her downstairs and watched her go in. "I swear, Sister Li, I watched her press the elevator button."
Hearing what the person on the other end said was so firm, Yang Meili believed that he didn't dare to be so presumptuous. "That's weird. Then I'll call her and ask."
Just now I just thought about the two of them being together, so I called Dong Fang directly.
----------------------------------------
Over at the Lido Garden, the people who were having a heart-to-heart conversation didn't know what was going on. The WeChat phone on the table rang, which just broke the harmonious atmosphere in the room.
"What's wrong, Sister Li?"
Before I could hear the words on the other side, the voice interruption prompt sounded, and then the page showing Dong Fang's call appeared.
"Zhao Yiran, where are you?" After the call was connected, the person who had not yet calmed down was frightened by the sudden questioning tone.
Inexplicably, she felt a little afraid to answer. As soon as the woman answered my word, she was interrupted again, "You're not home, where have you been?!"
Dong Fang felt excited after answering the phone call just now. He knew that Zhao Yiran was not in good condition. He didn't even go home after getting into the elevator at night. Anyone else would think too much about it.
He felt extremely uncomfortable waiting after the call was dialed. He was afraid that the person on the other side wouldn't get through.
Zhao Yiran told him that he was at Zheng Mengyao's place.
The tense strings relaxed at this moment, and the angry shouts just now were gradually put away. Zhao Yiran heard him exhale, and was full of helplessness when he spoke, "Sister Li has been waiting for you at home. I can't find anyone to call."
It hit me."
Zhao Yiran seemed to be awakened. She thought that Yang Meili would drive the car back and leave. After all, she also knew that she had a spare key at home.
"I'm sorry for making you worry. I'll go back soon." The woman said sarcastically.
"I'll pick you up and give me your address."
How could she have the nerve to ask a man to act as her driver so late at night? She immediately refused, "I can just take a taxi, it's not far."
"Don't talk nonsense to me, hurry up." The man said without any doubt and hung up the phone directly.
He grabbed the car keys on the table, then picked up the unpacked cigarettes from the side, smoked one and stuffed it into his mouth.
Close the door and go downstairs.
At this moment, he was in a irritable mood, and his craving for cigarettes started to ignite.
----------------------------------------
"That one in Liang Jing's team?" The living room was very quiet. Zheng Mengyao could hear the male voice just now and knew that Xiaohua had told her that Dong Fang liked his sister.
"Yes." Zhao Yiran nodded, his phone clicked on the screen and obediently sent him the location.
"What's your attitude now?"
Zheng Mengyao was not the first person to ask her this question, but the woman had no answer in her heart, so she shook her head.
"I think you like it."
The people who heard this seemed surprised, and raised their heads suddenly with doubts in their eyes.
Why do you say that?
"Are you also on the same team as them?" Zhao Yiran asked half-jokingly.
"I think your personality is suitable for someone like him." Zheng Mengyao shook her head and told her her thoughts seriously.
"I'm actually quite confused. In the past few years, the impression he gave me was completely contrary to my standards for choosing a spouse. But after experiencing Qin Zhengwei's incident, I suddenly discovered that everything is not so absolute.
After getting in touch again this time, it is indeed a lie to say that I am not moved."
Zhao Yiran considers herself an independent girl, and her previous relationship experiences have left her with no chance to rely too much on anyone. But as long as she is a girl, there will always be times when her thin shoulders cannot carry her.
But if you think about it carefully, every time you come into contact with him, he will always have troublesome problems. The time when the gardener smashed the car window and met the unruly leader, the time when Chen Meng kept chattering, and the time when he met Chen Wan tonight.
It's not that she wouldn't be able to handle it on her own, but with him by her side, Zhao Yiran would always feel a sense of security in her heart.
There were also all kinds of small actions and attentiveness, which made her feel that the man was no longer the Dong Fang he used to be. When she accidentally heard about the confrontation between him and Qin Zhengwei, she even thought that maybe she had never understood him well.
She would wonder if the feelings he made her feel were the true reflection of love.
Zheng Mengyao tilted her head and listened to her talk slowly, and she could clearly feel the subtle changes in the face of the person opposite her. "Did you feel that he had special confidence at that time?"
Zhao Yiran smiled happily when she was asked, and unconsciously recalled tonight's experience in her mind. At that time, she asked him why he was there, and the man answered her with a look on his face like he was looking at a fool.
That tone is like saying how can you ask such a question? Isn't it right for me to follow you?
When I was stunned for a moment, I realized that, oh, it turned out to be because Qin Zhengwei had become accustomed to the feeling of verbal companionship in the past few years since he joined the army.
"But I know better that if another six years comes... I can't afford to delay it."
So she can no longer and dare not make emotional decisions easily. She is not a person who only wants to be happy for a short period of time.
Zheng Mengyao smiled lightly, "Do you still remember what I asked you last time I sat here?"
At that time, it was still half a year before Qin Zhengwei's term ended, and the two of them had an unstable relationship and often quarreled. Zheng Mengyao asked her, "From your perspective, can you figure out whether you two are still together because of your sense of morality or because of love?"
Anyone who is familiar with Zhao Yiran knows that she is an extremely loving and long-term person, and she will basically not break up with a person unless the other party makes a principled mistake.
But no one is a saint, and Zhao Yiran is a very good girl. At that time, she wanted Zhao Yiran to find out what he meant more about Qin Zhengwei in his heart.
Just like now, she wanted Zhao Yiran to admit that she liked Dong Fang in her heart. But she also understood the girl's thoughts and wanted to have more contact with him to confirm whether her current love was real and reliable.
"I don't think the reason why you haven't agreed to him is because of the impact of your previous relationship. Instead, I think you want to find more reasons to convince yourself during this period of pulling and pulling to achieve what you can.
Agree to his purpose."
Zheng Mengyao's university major was psychology, and she has been studying Adlerian psychology since graduation.
As a psychological counselor, she does not agree with Freud's theory of psychological trauma from a personal perspective, especially when it comes to emotional issues. She prefers to start from the teleological direction that Adler believed.
"If you think about it carefully, when you get along with Dong Fang or Qin Zhengwei, which one brings you higher emotional value on the same thing?"
The answer to the question is undoubtedly Dong Fang.
Zhao Yiran was also very powerless, "I just feel guilty if I agreed to him before I had fully thought about it." Moreover, she had just broken up.
Immediately entering the next relationship, in some ways she became a playboy.
She understood what Zheng Mengyao said just now, and she did not object. She was really looking for more proofs to tell herself that Dong Fang was worth entrusting her to.
Zheng Mengyao shook her head lightly and retorted, "There are too many things that people cannot grasp. You must cherish what is in front of you now."
She also wanted to tell Zhao Yiran that love is not a formula, it is not the kind that can only be called on a certain date, and must be hung up after a few minutes; what can be mailed and what cannot.
Love has no fixed pattern. As everyone says, love is the most unstructured. It is unconstrained.
"Emotionally, it's rare to be confused, but as someone who has experienced it, I want to tell you, don't be like me, the more sober you are, the more harsh you become. You can't help but be more sincere in your feelings."
...
Before Zhao Yiran left, he quietly went in to take a look at Xiaohua, who was sleeping soundly under the dim night light.
