Letting go is also a kind of sustenance
You and I must do it
And from now on we can say to ourselves
Already loved
—Adu, "Letting Go"
The next morning, Bai Jiming got up at nine o'clock, washed up, packed his things and prepared to go home. The waiter knocked on the door and came in: "Teacher Bai, Vice President Du invites you to the coffee shop on the second floor."
Bai Jiming thought about it for a moment, put down his backpack, and went to the second floor.
Not only Du Zicheng, but Cheng Xiangyu was there too. His eyes lit up when he saw Bai Jiming: "Well, tell the truth." Bai Jiming glanced at Du Zicheng, who made a "none of my business" gesture with a bitter face.
Bai Jiming sat down slowly and smiled: "What?"
"Your love story with Liao Weixin." Cheng Xiangyu almost took out a pen to take notes. It was probably not so serious even in class. "It must be lingering, tortuous and touching, right?"
Bai Jiming remained silent and looked at Du Zicheng again. Vice President Du finally realized that he could not escape responsibility for this matter. He cleared his throat and said to his fiancée, "Didn't I tell you everything? Why are you still asking Jiming?"
"He is the party involved. Do you know the party involved?" As expected of a law student, he started with technical terms. "Do you know more about the party involved than the party involved?"
"I say, wife, this is their business after all, you..." Du Zicheng continued.
"What do you mean by their business? You are Xiaobai's classmate and I am his friend. Can't I show some concern?" Cheng Xiangyu glared. Du Zicheng immediately cowered and muttered, "What do you mean by concern? It's just gossip..."
Bai Jiming took a sip of water and said slowly: "Xiang Yu, you may have misunderstood some things."
"Impossible." Cheng Xiangyu said firmly, "Have you heard of it? In this world, there are only two things that cannot be hidden, one is hiccups, and the other is love." Du Zicheng muttered quietly, "Also, farting."
"Shut up and go where you want to go!" Cheng Xiangyu was a little angry.
"I'm not going anywhere." Du Zicheng began to flatter, "It's cool to be next to my wife."
"Get lost, who is your wife? I'm telling you, Du Zicheng, don't make me unhappy, or I'll divorce you."
"No, no, my wife's happiness is my happiness." Du Zicheng straightened his chest and raised his chin to Bai Jiming: "You, hurry up and say it."
Bai Jiming shook his head helplessly: "You are a born traitor, luckily you were not born during the Anti-Japanese War." Du Zicheng smiled, with an attitude of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water: "You are much better than Liao Weixin, he said I am a shame to men." Bai Jiming nodded: "Yeah, quite vivid."
"Hey, hey." Cheng Xiangyu knocked on the table, "Don't change the subject and confuse people."
Bai Jiming took a breath and said seriously, "Xiang Yu, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. Liao Weixin and I are a thing of the past. If the story Du Zicheng told you was complete, then you should know the deal between us. You are very familiar with Liao Weixin, and he is not a person who drags his feet. It just so happens that I am not either. Can we stop here with this question? Don't embarrass me, and don't embarrass Zicheng anymore."
"Who said it was a thing of the past? Who said it was a deal?" Cheng Xiangyu was unhappy. "You're not as honest as Liao Weixin. He told me very clearly that he loves you."
