Furthermore, Ye Qianqian had only seen Fang Tongtong twice since she was hospitalized.
She was unwilling to meet Fang Tongtong in person or to even offer her a word of comfort.
After Ye Qianqian came to know that Fang Tongtongâs condition had improved, she directly returned to Kingstown. Sometimes, Ye Qianqian also felt that she was a cold-hearted person.
Otherwise, why wouldnât I even offer Fang Tongtong a word of comfort after such an incident happened to her, when we have been friends for many years? And yet I find it hard to part with a man like Shen Zhilie, whom Iâve known for less than a year, and whom Iâve been together with for less than three months.
Every time Ye Qianqian recalled how she had lost this man because of other peopleâs slanderous words that were meant to estrange their relationship, Ye Qianqian felt as though her heart was sliced into a thousand pieces.
At that very moment, when Ye Qianqian heard what Shen Zhilie had asked, she said, âThis is probably fate.â
Shen Zhilie was at a lost for words and, after a long silence, he said, âSorry to hear about this.â
Shen Zhilie truly felt a sense of pity. But he didnât have any other thoughts beyond pity.
âIâm sorry,â Ye Qianqian said softly.
Shen Zhilie fell silent and waited for her to continue speaking.
âLetâs meet up,â Ye Qianqian said.
Shen Zhilieâs heart was instantly put to rest, and he suddenly felt as though he had caught hold of something.
âAll right. When?â Shen Zhilie asked, pretending to remain calm.
âThis weekend? Iâve taken too many days off lately, and there are quite a lot of things to do. Iâll head over to the capital to look for you on the weekends.â
âThatâs not necessary,â Shen Zhilie replied softly.
Ye Qianqianâs heart tightened when she heard his reply, and she said, slightly anxiously, âItâs all right...â
âIâll go to Kingstown.â Shen Zhilieâs voice was slightly soft and gentle, as if he were testing the waters carefully. âTime will be too tight for you if you come to the capital. Furthermore, youâre so busy with work, so itâll be too taxing for you to come back and forth within just two days of time.â
âAll right...â
âMeals and accommodations included?â
âYeah,â Ye Qianqian agreed with a flushed face.
When the colleagues around Ye QIanqian looked over at her, they all saw her crimson red face, and they began to smile rather suggestively.
When Ye Qianqian noticed the eyes that were all looking at her, her face turned even redder. Fortunately, her colleagues were still some distance away from her, and they wouldnât be able to hear her when she spoke.
She then replied softly into the phone, âI learned how to cook curry rice recently. Iâll cook for you when youâre back.â
Shen Zhilieâs lips curled up into a smile, and he replied dotingly in a soft voice, âAll right.â
âIâll head back to work, then. Hanging up.â
âYeah.â
Ye Qianqian hung up the phone rather reluctantly, and, as she stared at the string of numbers on her cellphone, she decided to change his contact name to: âMy ex-boyfriend whom Iâm entangled with.â
Yes... Heâs my ex-boyfriend for now. Iâll change it back if Shen Zhilie agrees to get back together with me someday and put the past behind us.
All of the unhappiness and uncomfortable feelings that Ye Qianqian had accumulated for so many days seemed to have been released, and she even felt more motivated to work.
Sissi was well known in the chat groups for being proud and cold, but she seemed to be in an exceptionally good mood that day. Not only did she talk more, she even sent out memes!
All of the participants in the chat groups felt overwhelmed by her unexpected display of affection, and they immediately began to reflect upon themselves to check if this could be a ploy Sissi had devised to trick them into admitting any wrong that they had done to her.
Ye Qianqian: â...â
The amount of work that she had accumulated over many days could not be completed quickly, and Ye Qianqian worked overtime until 9 p.m. again, as she had anticipated.
She took the night bus back home, and just when she had dragged her exhausted body home and opened the door to her house, she realized that the lights were on inside the house!
