As the door to the room was slammed shut, Ruan Xingwan also looked back.
She pursed her lips before saying: "Cheng Wei, actually, I have been thinking about this issue during this time. I think maybe we should try to get in touch, but I'm sorry, I..."
"Xingwan, you also said you would try to get in touch first. It's just the beginning now. You don't have to reject me so quickly."
Ruan Xingwan shook his head.
She couldn't try Cheng Wei while she was still entangled with Zhou Cishen. It would be unfair to him.
Cheng Weidao: "Xingwan, I know what you are thinking. He is him and you are you. I can tell the difference clearly."
"No, Cheng Wei, that's not what I meant."
Ruan Xingwan thought for a few seconds and then said, "I always thought that I knew what I wanted. When I chose divorce, I never thought about looking back, but now..."
"Are you shaken now?"
Ruan Xingwan couldn't answer for a while.
She was indeed shaken.
During the past period, she once felt that Zhou Cishen's love for her might not even be as important as a document in his office.
But now, it seems that that bitch man is not just a whim as she imagined.
It was tonight that she seemed to see his sincerity through layers of fog.
Seeing that Ruan Xingwan didn't speak, Cheng Wei knew that he had guessed correctly.
After a pause, he continued: "You have been married to Zhou Cishen for three years, and it is normal for you to still have feelings for him.
Xingwan, I can also wait until you completely forget about him and start a new life."
Ruan Xingwan often said to herself "start a new life" before. She always felt that as long as she started a new life, she could completely separate herself from everything in the past.
But it wasn't until today that she discovered that was not the case.
No matter how you want to start over, there are many things in life that have happened before and can never be erased from memory.
Just like her three-year marriage to Zhou Cishen, it's like even though she knew he hated her extremely, she still slowly fell in love with him after spending time together day and night, just like she is now scolding her every day.
He is a bitch, but he can't control a certain place in his heart that is gradually collapsing...
There are many things in this world, if only they were as simple as imagined.
Cheng Wei said again: "Xingwan, it's getting late today. Let's rest first. We'll talk about anything later."
Ruan Xingwan was indeed tired and nodded: "You should go back to bed early."
After returning to the room, Ruan Xingwan lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling not knowing what he was thinking.
Half an hour later, the doorbell rang.
She slowly walked to the door, opened it, and saw the hotel staff.
The other party handed her a gift box and mobile phone: "Madam, these are the things you left in the villa."
Ruan Xingwan suddenly realized when she saw the phone. She had thrown it on the sofa and completely forgot about it when she left.
And that box was a gift from the hotel that the staff member who sent her up the mountain mentioned earlier.
Judging from the situation tonight, the gift should be from Zhou Cishen.
Ruan Xingwan took it over together: "Thank you."
The staff bowed slightly to her and turned to leave.
After closing the door, the wounds on Ruan Xingwan's feet were a little open, and she could only jump inside.
Lying on the bed again, she first took out the charger from her bag and charged her mobile phone, then turned over and looked at the gift box placed on the bedside.
Ruan Xingwan lay on the bed and looked at it for a while, hesitating whether to open it.
Forget it, never mind it.
Anyway, everything has been delivered, and it will look the same whether she looks at it or not.
Rather than just throwing it away, it's better to satisfy your curiosity.
Ruan Xingwan unzipped the rope on the gift box and took off the lid.
What was placed in the box were chocolates that Zhou Cishen brought back from a business trip to Belgium and left there. She ate them and wanted to eat them again, as well as a necklace and a card.
Ruan Xingwan opened the card and saw a line of small words written on it.
【Third Anniversary】
The writing is strong and the content is concise and clear.
It's Zhou Cishen's handwriting, and it looks like something that dog man would write.
Ruan Xingwan looked at the card and was lost in thought for a while, then an idea suddenly came to his mind.
Could this be the gift Zhou Cishen prepared for her on their wedding anniversary half a year ago?
Yes, that should be the case, otherwise why would it say "Third Anniversary" on the card.
I have to say that this dog man is really stingy. He clearly said that he would give her her first wedding anniversary tonight, but the last gift he gave her was for her third wedding anniversary.
Thinking of this, Ruan Xingwan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, opened a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into his mouth. It was sweet but not greasy.
It still smells the same as before.
At this time, the mobile phone next to me vibrated. It should be charging and turning on.
Ruan Xingwan took the phone over and found that Cheng Wei had made many calls to her, and Pei Shanshan had also sent her many messages.
Ruan Xingwan looked at the time and saw that it was not too late. Pei Shanshan probably wasn't asleep at this time, so he called back.
Soon, the call was answered.
Pei Shanshan said: "Xingxing, are you okay? Cheng Wei said you went to see Zhou Cishen and then couldn't contact you. What happened?"
"This matter... it's a long story."
"It's okay, I just can't sleep, please speak slowly."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
She coughed and tried to change the subject: "How was your date tonight?"
Mentioning this was indeed useful, and it instantly touched Pei Shanshan's sadness.
She said angrily: "If I had known better, I would still be helping college students carry their luggage. Daniel is simply sick!"
"What's wrong?"
"Didn't he ask Xiao Chen and me to have dinner together in the evening? When we were going out, Xiao Chen said that he had something to do and couldn't go, and then it was just the two of us. I felt quite embarrassed at the time, but... after all, it was an opportunity.
Well, but after arriving at the restaurant, what do you think he said?"
Ruan Xingwan asked tentatively: "Is the canned food at home about to expire again?"
Pei Shanshan sneered twice: "It's even more outrageous than this. The dishes were already served. He suddenly said that he believed in Buddhism. Then he remembered that today was the first day of the new year and he had to fast. Then he immediately got up and left, leaving me alone.
There, do you think he is sick?
Why did he ask me out if he didn’t want to have dinner with me, and he came up with such an excuse that he couldn’t come up with even if he hadn’t had a brain injury for ten years? I’ve never seen such an inexplicable person like him.”
"..."
Ruan Xingwan usually looked at Daniel and thought he was quite normal, but she didn't expect him to be so unreliable.
After Pei Shanshan complained, she still didn't forget about business: "By the way, these things about me are not worth mentioning. Let's continue talking about you. What did that bitch do to you that is worse than a beast?"
