Weng Qing and Zhang Yi helped Wu Peng out of the bar.
"Come on, help Wu Peng up."
"Wu Peng?" Ji Zhehan's heart sank, and he retracted his hand that was about to open the car door.
Liu Siyang and others had already helped Zhang Yi into the car. Zhang Yi and Weng Qing had guests to socialize with, so they did not follow them.
"Take you home?" Liu Siyang asked Wu Peng for his opinion in the taxi.
"No, go back to the apartment. I... don't... don't want to listen to my mother's nagging."
Wu Peng's mother kept nagging her about Wu Peng and Si Yang. Taking advantage of his classmates' vacation, he simply moved into his classmates' apartment to live for a while.
Seeing Zhang Yi and Weng Qing walking into the bar again, Ji Zhehan chased Liu Siyang's taxi without even thinking.
Following unhurriedly, the taxi stopped at the door of a unit in a community. Liu Siyang helped Wu Peng out, and the driver also got out of the car.
"Which floor do you live on?" She guessed that a little woman couldn't help such a big drunk man up, so the driver took the initiative to help.
"301, thank you." The driver and Liu Siyang helped Wu Peng upstairs.
Ji Zhehan looked at the third floor with dismay. Sure enough, in a room on the left, the lights came on. A few minutes later, the driver came out alone.
Ji Zhehan's heart continued to sink, and with a black line on his face, he opened the car door and came out for some air. If he stayed inside, he would go crazy.
On the other side of the ocean, Gu Yunli dialed Wu Peng's cell phone over and over again, but no one answered. Gu Yunli's heart suddenly sank. Could her worries be true?
"No." Gu Yunli persuaded herself not to think nonsense, and continued to call. I couldn't believe that no one answered.
Start calling the landline.
"Hello." After scrubbing Wu Peng's face clean, Liu Siyang was about to quietly exit when the phone on the bedside table rang.
"Hello."
"Hello, Peng?" Gu Yunli's mouth formed an O shape, and tears were about to flow out. Calculating the time now, it should be around 11 o'clock in the evening in Shanghai. There was a young woman in Wu Peng's room. Her age sounded
No older than herself. Gu Yunli didn't dare to think about it anymore. Tears filled her eyes, and her beautiful eyes were shining.
I remembered going to Aunt Wu Peng’s place yesterday afternoon.
"Aunt." I used to call her aunt, but later, following Wu Peng and Gu Yunli, I started to call her aunt Wu Ying.
"I'm going to Shanghai soon, I must be very excited."
"Auntie, you are making fun of me again." Gu Yunli lowered her head and smiled without saying a word.
"Yunli." After bringing some fruit to Gu Yunli, Wu Ying began to consider whether to tell her that Wu Peng was chasing a girl named Liu Siyang.
"What's the matter? Auntie."
"Wu Peng... I mean Wu Peng..."
"Auntie, you have always been very sharp-tongued. My mother often laments to herself why you are so hesitant today." Gu Yunli inserted a piece of watermelon with a toothpick and asked while eating.
"Yunli, Wu Peng is a good child, and so are you. Auntie really hopes that you two can be together. It's up to you to go to Shanghai this time. If anything happens, call auntie and I will definitely be on your side."
Wu Ying didn't want to irritate Yunli directly, so she had to use a more tactful tone to remind her that after all, her sister-in-law said that Wu Peng and the girl didn't seem to be broken up.
"Auntie, what happened?"
"Nothing, just call me if you need anything."
Wu Ying was afraid that Yunli would become anxious and immediately flew to Shanghai, answering vaguely that she would stand up for Yunli anyway if something happened. After all, Wu Peng still listened to Wu Ying.
I have to go to my aunt to find out. Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Gu Yunli took out her car keys, opened the car door, and drove to Wu Ying's company.
Siyang shook his head and put down the phone in his hand.
"Peng?" He called me so kindly, could it be her?
Liu Siyang was shocked. If it was really Gu Yunli, wouldn't she have been misunderstood?
After calling the number, no one picked up for a long time. Forget it, I'll give her a good explanation after she comes to Shanghai.
"Si Yang, Si Yang——"
"What's wrong, Wu Peng?"
Wu Peng sat up crookedly.
"Wu Peng, it seemed like it was Yunli's call just now."
"Yunli?"
"As soon as I picked up the phone, he died..." Liu Siyang lowered his eyelids like a child who had done something wrong.
"Yunli? Siyang, I..."
"Stop talking, Wu Peng, just survive these few days, okay?"
Liu Siyang was eagerly looking forward to Gu Yunli's arrival. If she was really a good girl, and with her help, they could really become an enviable couple.
"Wu Peng, it's getting late. I should leave. I'll help you close the curtains." Liu Siyang said and walked to the balcony.
"I'm sorry, Siyang, I shouldn't be entangled." Wu Peng stepped forward and took Siyang's hand. The window was open, and the cool breeze of the summer night blew. His nerves had sobered up a lot, and he put his arms around her behind.
waist, muttering to himself.
"Wu Peng, I'm sorry. I can't even fall in love with you. Maybe I am destined to be lonely in this life." Liu Siyang did not break away.
"Siyang, let me hug you. From the beginning to the end, I have never given you a good hug."
"Wu Peng."
"Don't say anything, don't look back, just let me hug you quietly for a while, and I'll let you go after five minutes."
Wu Peng's eyes were full of melancholy and sadness. Siyang had her face turned away. Although she couldn't see it, she could feel it from the bottom of her heart. She silently muttered in her heart: "I'm sorry, Wu Peng, if I don't love you but I became your girlfriend against my will."
, it’s unfair to you. So, forgive me.”
The thin curtains were fluttering in the wind. Ji Zhehan looked at the shadows on the balcony. The two people hugged each other in such an ambiguous posture.
It was still a step too late, and it was already over before it started. Ji Zhehan's eyes darkened completely, full of pain. He gently turned the car key and allowed the pain to sprout in his heart.
