For Tang Jingyue, being rejected by Gao Zheng, the motivation that had been supporting her efforts was gone.
She has been studying hard since she was fourteen years old, just to become better in the future and worthy of the god-like man in her mind.
She once thought about joining the army so that she could be closer to him.
But his father insisted on letting her learn business. He said that boy Tang Ye was not a moneymaker at all, and someone had to inherit his career.
She was not good at debating, so her father filled out her application before she had time to fight for it.
She thought that she might as well do business with her father in the future. At least she would have free time and have enough opportunities to be close to him.
After eight years of hard work, she finally had the chance to muster up the courage to confess her love to him.
She imagined the worst outcome.
She had done some psychological construction for herself. No matter what the outcome was, she would have to face it.
Even if she was rejected, it would be better than hiding her thoughts in her heart and missing out.
No matter what, she worked hard and will not regret it in the future.
But when she really faced the cruel result, Tang Jingyue found that she had overestimated her ability to bear it.
She even underestimated his position in her heart.
The moment he told her to give up her fantasy, it was like being hit in the head by a huge stone, and she was completely in despair.
The man she had a crush on for eight years, after reading her diary in which she poured all her feelings, only told her to throw away her fantasy.
It turned out that the love she imagined was just an unrealistic fantasy in his eyes.
Yes, it is indeed a fantasy.
It's her wishful thinking.
Tang Jingyue went home yesterday and locked herself in her room.
In the morning, Tang Ye came up and asked her to come downstairs for dinner, but Tang Jingyue didn't even open the door.
At this moment, she was like a corpse, lying upright on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
…
The curtains in the room were closed. She didn't know what time it was. She felt hot all over.
Awesome, extremely uncomfortable.
The phone she threw on the table rang.
It was as if she didn't hear the bell and had no reaction at all.
Staring blankly at the ceiling.
She had been awake all night.
The other party seemed to be in a hurry, so he persisted, hanging up and fighting again.
Tang Jingyue was irritated by the noise, her dull eyes moved, and she slowly sat up.
When she got up, her head felt dizzy.
It seems that I haven't eaten for two meals and my blood sugar is low.
She moved to the bed and reached for the phone.
Pick up.
"Who?" When she spoke, she was startled by herself.
The voice is extremely hoarse.
The other party asked, "Hello, are you the niece of the Tang family?"
Tang Jingyue, "..."
Even though her head felt heavy and her reaction was slow, she still really heard the other party's voice.
That was a voice she could never forget.
She felt that she must have been hallucinating because her mind was filled with that person.
She didn't speak, and the other party's voice came over again, "Hey, is this Tang Jingyue's phone number?"
"I...I am." Tang Jingyue stuttered back.
"I am Gao Zheng." He said, "I want to return something to you. Do you have time?"
return things?
"Yes!" she blurted out. No matter what he returned, her first reaction was that she could see him.
Tang Jingyue felt that her answer just now was too hasty, so she rubbed her eyebrows and forced herself to stay awake.
She ignored the important point of him returning the things.
All he could think about was his last sentence, "Does she have time?"
Gao Zheng responded, "Okay, I'll wait for you at Keda Plaza."
"I'll be there right away."
Tang Jingyue was almost resurrected with full health, hung up the phone, and started to clean up herself.
She got off the bed and felt top-heavy when she stood up.
She tried her best to ignore her physical discomfort, washed her face, changed out of her pajamas, put her black backpack on her shoulders, and went downstairs.
This weekend, Tang Ye was at home. He called Tang Jingyue last night, but she didn’t come down. He called Tang Jingyue again in the morning, but she still didn’t come downstairs. .??.
Now, seeing that she was finally willing to go downstairs, Tang Ye glanced at her and was about to scold her when he saw her appearance and was shocked, "Sister, what's wrong with your eyes?"
Tang Jingyue knew that he was referring to the dark circles under her eyes. Last night, she had stayed awake all night and had panda eyes in the morning.
She lowered her eyelids and replied, "It's okay."
"You haven't come down to eat since yesterday afternoon. Aren't you hungry?"
Tang Jingyue didn't answer his words and walked straight out, "I'm going out."
The family car was driven away by her father, and Tang Jingyue ran all the way from the door of her house to the intersection before she got a taxi.
She was so exhausted that she was panting heavily after running a few hundred meters.
But the expectation deep in her heart made her automatically ignore her physical discomfort.
When she arrived at the square, Tang Jingyue saw the tall figure at a glance.
It was past one o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was hot, and there were only a few old men playing chess in the shade of the square. It was very empty, and Gao Zheng stood there, which made him more conspicuous.
Tang Jingyue looked at him from a distance and suddenly lacked the courage to approach him.
Along the way, her mind cleared up and she realized what he said about returning the things.
What does he want to give her in return? The answer is self-evident.
Tang Jingyue looked straight at his back, clenching her hands hanging by her sides...
She was thinking about how she could express her feelings to him again once they met.
She couldn't just give up.
Gao Zheng seemed to sense something. He suddenly turned around and looked over.
Tang Jingyue had no time to escape and met Gao Zheng's eyes.
Even though he was far away, she could still feel his strong aura.
Gao Zheng looked at the girl standing ten meters away with her hands nowhere to rest, and he stepped over.
Tang Jingyue's heart beat loudly and loudly, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
She looked at him, stepping on high boots, step by step, taking firm steps, and walked towards her against the light.
She forgot her nervousness for a moment, her mind went blank, and her eyes were filled with his figure.
Gao Zheng walked to Tang Jingyue and stood still.
The girl in front of me was dumbfounded and her eyes looked as if she had lost her anxiety.
"Niece of the Tang family." Gao Zheng said.
Tang Jingyue did not respond.
"Niece of the Tang family?"
She still didn't move.
Gao Zheng's face was expressionless, and he raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
"Tang Jingyue!"
The girl finally came back to her senses and looked at the man in front of her. Her back was stiff and she felt that the blood in her body was about to freeze.
"Gao..." Tang Jingyue looked at him, but still couldn't call him uncle, "Captain Gao."
She tried her best to get closer to each other.
She and he are not from the same family, so she doesn't call him uncle, which is understandable.
However, her heart broke as soon as Gao Zheng spoke. He looked serious and corrected her in a cold tone, "Niece of the Tang family, you should call me uncle."
Tang Jingyue bit her lip, lowered her head and said nothing, pretending not to hear.
"Your things." Gao Zheng pulled down the zipper of his camouflage uniform and took out the cowhide bag from the large camouflage uniform.
