31.Chapter 31: Is it time to break up the friendship?
Author: Wei Yuwei
Much later, when the topic "How important is it to have an emotionally stable partner" became a hot search topic, the first thing she thought of was Lin Xuyue.
However, when she was leaving the store early the next morning, she heard the clerk talking about a customer who broke the glass in the guest room. She was sent to the hospital and needed several stitches on her hand.
Jiang Ningyu was also the first to think of Lin Xuyue. But when she thought of sharing Chen Ning's business card with her after leaving the room, he replied "Okay" and seemed to accept the fact calmly, but also felt that he
It's impossible to be so impulsive.
Before returning to the United States to complete his final semester of classes, Lu Li came to see her and asked her in his first sentence, "If you don't like Xu Yue, just say it. Why do you have to say it so harshly?"
"What did I say?" Jiang Ningyu was puzzled.
"If you don't say nasty things, will he cry?" Lu Li smiled bitterly, "Forget it, since you don't like him, just stop looking for him. It's good for both of you."
Linxuyue...crying?
Jiang Ningyu couldn't connect the two together. She thought about finding an opportunity to ask on the way back, but she didn't expect that he had changed the plane.
She has heard of a term called "delayed grief".
At the beginning of the self-evident alienation, Jiang Ningyu had no special feelings. It was nothing more than returning to the starting point where they were not familiar with each other and becoming strangers again. Li Weiwei had given up on him anyway, so she no longer had to deliberately maintain this relationship.
Only occasionally, she wanted to find a topic to chat with him. Whenever she got a passive and cold reply, she would think: Ah, yes, they broke up.
She would also go downstairs to his company and stay far away, staying there for half a day. Until one time she saw him talking and laughing with a tall, beautiful and tall girl who entered the building. They matched each other regardless of their height and appearance.
Then I remembered that Chen Ning hadn't spoken to her for a long time.
She couldn't help but send another message to Lin Xuyue, asking him: Are we considered to have severed all ties?
It took a long time for the other party to reply to her with one word: Yes.
Then she stopped going.
At first, she had no shame to bother him any more. Jiang Ningyu spent her whole life. Until the day of graduation, when they threw their hats to take pictures, a gentle and smiling voice suddenly sounded in her ears: On the day of your graduation, your hat will be thrown to
I.
She suddenly had a sore nose, ran for a long time, and slowly squatted down and cried by the deserted river. Like a prairie fire, it started to burn from the heart, and then the seeds of those meaningless emotions finally sprouted and turned into
A sharp knife pierced directly into the heart.
The time spent with Lin Xuyue flashed through my mind like a spotlight, and scenes...
——Are all fairies so popular?
——Liking for you is something I will definitely do.
——As long as you say it, I will believe it.
…
There were bloody wounds in every scene. She didn't want to be so miserable, as if she was the one who was hurt. Obviously there was no unforgettable past between them, it was all small emotions the size of sesame seeds, but it was full of emotions.
The sesame seeds on the ground also make people collapse.
Then she realized that the moment she started plotting against the person who loved her most, she also plotted against herself.
The person who turned away and hurt that day was also herself.
She didn't cry when she was under the most pressure, nor did she cry when her parents didn't understand her. On the contrary, on such a happy and joyful day, she cried so out of breath that she couldn't hold her breath several times.
I fell into even greater sadness.
Until a little foreign boy patted her shoulder and handed her an orange.
Suddenly her eyes turned red and she fell silent.
Maybe, it would be good to be a peaceful stranger from now on.
If there is another chance to meet again...she will definitely not lie to him again.
She took the orange and understood many things.
Later, she saw in Chen Ning's circle of friends that he had returned to China. It was his birthday, and she sent him a red envelope. He confiscated it.
At that time, she was already determined to start a new life, so she smiled and blocked his circle of friends.
…
Jiang Ningyu never dared to recall more details at that time, and this is still the case now.
She liked Lu Li's circle of friends, clicked on Lin Xuyue's WeChat account, and considered her words for a long time:
[It suddenly occurred to me that I have never apologized to you properly. I'm sorry. I know it's been a long time and everyone is no longer a child. You may not care about it anymore. But I just want to say, thank you for being there at that time.
I'm very sorry for you at that time. I believe that good people will be rewarded.】
After solemnly uttering these words, Jiang Ningyu felt as if a huge boulder had fallen from her heart, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Maybe God arranged a series of dramatic reunions just for this moment. The cycle of cause and effect was just to let her face the real unbearable self.
She heard her colleagues mention the wonders of fate. Some people live in the same community without meeting each other, while some people can meet one after another even in different places.
So she felt that after this, the past would come to an end. The fate between her and Lin Xuyue should also be over.
Before going to bed, Jiang Ningyu checked WeChat. As expected, Lin Xuyue did not reply to her.
It’s time to really let go.
She clicked on the friend post she sent by mistake and was about to delete it, but when she caught a glimpse of his comment underneath, her fingertips trembled again and she changed her mind.
Forget it, it's better to be a warning so as not to do something embarrassing again in the future.
…
The next day, Jiang Ningyu came back to life with full health.
Sure enough, they didn't meet Lin Xuyue and the others again. Lu Li didn't send any message either.
Jiang Ningyu, who thought her life was finally back on track, was in a better mood, so she went to the bar alone and had two drinks before returning home leisurely.
However, as soon as she entered the community, the strange feeling of being stared at came back. She turned around and looked around, but she didn't see anything.
The hair on my arms was still standing on end until I took the elevator upstairs.
Jiang Ningyu thought it might be because of drinking, but she still felt a little confused, so she told Li Weiwei about it.
[How about you ask the landlord to install a surveillance camera on the door or something? The surveillance camera in your corridor is so easy to hide. If there really is some perverted stalker, a surveillance camera on the door will make it easier to take pictures.]
Jiang Ningyu was a little moved and went to find a real estate agent the next day.
The commercial community she rented had hotel-style apartments contracted by property owners, and there were serious owners. She was very lucky. When she was renting an apartment, she happened to meet a landlord who was in urgent need of rent, and rented it to her at a price lower than half the market price.
So she went to find a property owner this time. Her request was very clear, "I will pay for it, as long as the landlord agrees."
Unexpectedly, the property management company called her that afternoon. When Jiang Ningyu came home from get off work, she found that the door that the developer had uniformly decorated had been demolished, and the landlord had directly replaced it with a high-grade security door, complete with surveillance fingerprint locks.
Jiang Ningyu was dumbfounded, "Here, how much does this cost?" She was already worried about her wallet.
Unexpectedly, the property manager smiled and said, "The landlord said that the house belongs to him and he replaced the door without your having to pay."
Jiang Ningyu was happy to keep her wallet, but when she signed the feedback form, she accidentally caught a glimpse of a last name:
