After returning to the room, she habitually covered herself with the quilt when she was in a bad mood. Her heart was empty and confused. All night long, Su Xian was struggling with herself, thinking over and over again about the things between her and Zuo Yueyao. Every time she tried to think positively, she would be interrupted by the sudden appearance of a certain Ms. Zhou. She tossed and turned the whole night and couldn't fall asleep. At around five o'clock, she sent a text message to Huang Kaifeng asking for leave.
Huang Kaifeng didn't ask any more questions. He just said to have a good rest and didn't disturb her anymore.
The two have been working together for a long time. Su Xian is a well-known workaholic. She has never taken an annual leave, let alone a leave of absence. If she had not encountered any problems, she would never take a temporary leave. The reason why Huang Kaifeng did not ask was probably because he guessed what kind of state Su Xian was in. After all, emotional problems are a dilemma that everyone cannot escape.
Su Xian lay in bed for a long time until his stomach growled with hunger. He then got up and found a few pieces of bread in the refrigerator in the kitchen to fill his stomach. The refrigerator that was originally filled by Zuo Yueyao was now empty again.
He closed the refrigerator door weakly, took a few bites of bread and found it tasteless. He swallowed a few mouthfuls dryly and threw it aside. Su Xian felt that he had no strength at all and kept telling himself to indulge himself just this time and not do it again.
He moved from the bed to the sofa in the living room, flipped through a book out of boredom, and when he couldn't concentrate, he turned on the TV and switched between channels at random. Finally, he threw the remote control on the carpet and fell on the sofa.
In the afternoon, Wen He sent a text message with only three words: Thank you.
Of course Su Xian knew what he was thanking her for, but she didn't dare to reply to the text message, because she knew that she didn't really like Wen He and that was why she agreed to give it a try. She just thought that Wen He was a good person and it wouldn't hurt to give it a try. Maybe she could completely escape from Zuo Yueyao. There is a saying that goes, the best way to forget someone is to start a new relationship.
Maybe this is not fair to Wen He, but Su Xian really wants to be selfish for once.
She was just thinking about how to reply to Wen He's text message when a phone call came in. Su Xian picked up the phone and heard Ren Shang's voice.
Originally, she thought Ren Shang called her because of Lu Xiran's matter, thinking that she had not cleaned up her own mess and could not do anything about his problem, but Ren Shang was talking about Zuo Yueyao's matter.
"You must be his nemesis. Everything else goes smoothly and he gets what he wants, but when it comes to you, everything becomes a hurdle. It's a hurdle that he can't get over. What did you say to him that made him take the initiative to drag me to the bar to get drunk?"
This time, Ren Shang was neither angry nor annoyed. Perhaps it was because he took into consideration that Su Xian was Lu Xiran's best sister after all. Ever since he understood what true love was, being overwhelmed has become his normal state. He has no right to blame Su Xian.
Although he did not blame him, Zuo Yueyao was still his close brother after all. Seeing him saying nothing and becoming unconscious after drinking one cup after another, he felt very uncomfortable. And there was no one else except Su Xian who could solve this problem. It had been dragged on for so long, no matter how good or bad the outcome was, there should be a conclusion.
Su Xian didn't want to pay attention to Ren Shang's words because she had made up her mind. If she wanted to let go, she should let go completely.
But Ren Shang didn't intend to let her go.
"If you don't come, aren't you worried that he'll get alcohol poisoning and die young? You should know his temper. He's really determined and I can't persuade him."
Su Xian knew that Ren Shang was exaggerating on purpose, but after imagining the scene of Zuo Yueyao getting drunk, he could no longer remain indifferent.
Smoking, getting drunk, when did Zuo Yueyao become such a person
"Where?" she asked Ren Shang as if she had accepted her fate.
"That bar last time, better hurry up."
Su Xian was already driving at the fastest speed and almost ran a red light. But the more anxious a person is, the more likely God will go against him. By the time she arrived at the bar, Zuo Yueyao was so drunk that he could hardly recognize her.
In the end, he recognized her, but after recognition, those beautiful eyes suddenly became as cold as frost.
Should she regret saying those words in front of Zuo Yueyao
"I've handed him over to you. I have to go." Ren Shang was a little worried before leaving: "The old man checked and told me to go back immediately. I really can't stay any longer, otherwise I will be skinned alive. I have already told the waiter that he will help carry him to the car in a while."
Ren Shang left, leaving Su Xian alone. Facing the drunk Zuo Yueyao, he felt helpless.
How should she treat him? Where should she take him? Back to her own home? But she agreed to give Wen He a try yesterday, so what was going on
Zuo Yueyao leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes. He occasionally opened them and then quickly closed them again. Su Xian called him a few times, but he did not respond. She was not sure how drunk or sober he was.
Zuo Yueyao murmured a few words, but it was unclear what he was saying. His decadence fell into Su Xian's eyes, making her feel pain. She hurt him, but she did not regret it. Perhaps after this period, his future life would be smooth sailing.
This was the best ending she wanted to give him.
Su Xian reached out to touch Zuo Yueyao's face, but just as he was about to touch him, someone appeared.
He Xinwan hurried over and looked Zuo Yueyao up and down, as if Su Xian would harm him.
But Zuo Yueyao is like this, isn't it her fault
Su Xian had no interest in how He Xinwan and Zhou Ling got together, but she saw clearly that Zhou Ling liked He Xinwan. When she came, He Xinwan's hand was still in Zhou Ling's arm.
The mother-in-law is kind and the daughter-in-law is filial.
At this moment, Su Xian realized that she and Zuo Yueyao had reached the end.
Zhou Ling was very angry about Zuo Yueyao's behavior. If she put herself in his shoes, Su Xian would probably be angry too. Who is Zuo Yueyao? He is the star that everyone is paying attention to. He cannot afford to be stained by even a little bit of pollution or dust. But she, a small speck of dust, fell on this star, not only affecting him, but also bringing him the stigma of being tarnished.
Zhou Ling glanced at Su Xian. This look contained blame and resentment, but no more love. Who could still like someone who made his son so embarrassed
Su Xian felt a little aggrieved. Even if she had to take all the blame, she had to do it willingly. But in front of He Xinwan, she was actually very reluctant, especially when He Xinwan touched Zuo Yueyao's cheek with her extremely white hands in front of her. She had the urge to shake off that claw.
But it was just an impulse. She couldn't do this because Zhou Ling's serious expression without saying a word made her suddenly a little timid.
Zhou Ling had high hopes for her son and respected his choices, but that did not include the option of getting drunk in such a mixed place. His depressed look made her temples throb. For the first time, she felt disappointed in her son and felt genuinely dissatisfied with Su Xian.
Zhou Ling said to He Xinwan: "Take him back first."
The waiter arrived in a timely manner. He didn't know who was going to take Zuo Yueyao away, but when he saw He Xinwan behaving intimately with Zuo Yueyao, he stepped forward and kindly helped the person up, and went out with He Xinwan.
Su Xian wanted to stop him, but she couldn't move her legs. At a certain distance, Zhou Ling's voice was particularly clear and harsh in this noisy environment.
"I always thought you were a good kid. How could you go back on your word for what you promised me? Yueyao still has many dreams to realize. As a mother, seeing my son like this, do you know how sad I am? Child, even if your aunt asks you, the involvement between you two ends here, okay?"
Su Xian was not stupid enough to think that Zhou Ling was asking for her opinion. The bright lights made her eyes a little tired. She closed her eyes and heard Zhou Ling say in a distant voice: "Don't let me down again, okay?"
Su Xian did not answer Zhou Ling. Even if silence meant consent, she did not want to express it in words. This was the last bottom line she could maintain.
"Auntie, I still say the same thing. If you have any difficulties, you can call me directly. As long as I can help you, I will definitely help you."
It could be considered as a few slaps in the face and then a sweet treat. Su Xian laughed in her heart. Should she say that Zhou Ling was too sober or blame her for being tyrannical
Everyone had left. Su Xian regretted that she should not have listened to Ren Shang and come here. If she had not come, her heart would not have hurt so much. She wanted to chase out to see Zuo Yueyao's figure, but she did not have the courage. She was afraid that Zhou Ling would criticize her again with her sarcasm!
Everyone has to have dignity, and Zhou Ling knows that she does, so even without saying bad things to her, he can still achieve the desired effect.
Zhou Ling won, and He Xinwan also won. When she took Zuo Yueyao away, Su Xian saw that the worry on her face was not false. Where would she take him? What would they do? A series of questions pulled at her brain nerves, making her chest feel stuffy and uncomfortable. She clenched her fists and beat her chest hard, but she found that every breath was accompanied by extreme pain.
She almost got into an accident along the way because of her absent-mindedness. When she finally got home safely, she found Wen He leaning against the door waiting for her. As soon as he saw her, he hurried over. At this moment, Su Xian felt that Wen He was actually quite good.
"I sent you several text messages and called you several times, but you didn't reply. I was worried that something had happened to you, so I came to check on you. I rang the doorbell for a long time but there was no response. I was so anxious that I was about to call someone from the locksmith company. Fortunately, you came back."
Wen He said a lot, and Su Xian heard some of it, but not all of it. Her reaction made Wen He's heart, which had just been relieved, hang in the air again. He held Su Xian's arm and asked softly, "Su Xian? Did you hear me?"
With Wen He's scream, Su Xian's body fell rapidly. Fortunately, Wen He caught her quickly. Her limp body trembled a little in her arms. She fumbled in her bag for a while and found the key to the door. Wen He held her in his arms with one hand and opened the door with the other.
When Su Xian woke up, it was already dark. For a moment, she thought she had just had a dream, but she soon realized that everything that had happened before was not a dream, and the man sitting next to her in a daze was not a dream either.
