"Ajue, the marriage ends here—"
"let's break up."
The sudden word, like a heavy stone smashed into the calm water.
The two sides suddenly fell into a stalemate but a turbulent silence, and the atmosphere gradually became depressed.
After a long silence, the man's deep voice carried a thin anger that could not be concealed—
"I admit, I shouldn't be absent from the wedding. You have an emotional misunderstanding. I'll explain it to you when you go back. But Zhiyin, don't make a fool of yourself with such things as canceling the marriage and breaking up. You've crossed the line."
Qin Jue's remarks contained some rebuke, making Ruan Zhiyin dumb for a moment.
They have known each other for eight years and dated for three years. In my impression, he has always been gentle and polite.
When she was abroad, Qin Jue treated her well, and Ruan Zhiyin felt that they would make it to the end. Even in the few quarrels after returning to China, he has never been so rude.
However, at this moment, Qin Jue, the groom who escaped marriage for his ex-girlfriend, scolded her for not making a fool of himself by canceling the wedding and breaking up
Ruan Zhiyin really felt a little ridiculous, but she knew very well that she was not joking at all.
It's not that she didn't give Qin Jue a chance, nor did she trust him, but she reluctantly piled up too much disappointment from repeated lies and favoritism.
Maybe Qin Jue loved her too, but he couldn't let go of his feelings for another woman.
She couldn't continue to be decent in her relationship.
too tired.
She let him go, and she let go of herself.
However, Qin Jue could be forgiven for not believing her. After all, she had liked him for eight years and had been following him step by step. Even in the two years when it was quite difficult for him to break up with the Qin family, he always accompanied him.
Anyone with a discerning eye knew how much she liked Qin Jue, but she gave up at the door, which was really hard to believe.
She was about to say something when a pretty girl's voice rang out on the other end of the phone, interrupting her abruptly—
"Ajue, can you pass me the water glass?"
The woman's voice is not unfamiliar, revealing self-evident intimacy. At this moment, Ruan Zhiyin still felt a moment of embarrassment.
The next second, she sneered and hung up the phone.
She knew that Lin Jingfei spoke out on purpose, but she didn't want to have this endless quarrel anymore.
Recalling the decision just now, she even felt an unprecedented relaxation.
Just as he was in a trance, there was a knock on the door, and Kang Yu walked in hesitantly—
"Miss Ruan, Mr. Qin's assistant called me and said the wedding will be postponed until tomorrow?"
Qin Jue was busy with work and didn't make many appearances. These days, Kang Yu communicates with the groom's wedding matters through this assistant Zhai.
As soon as she finished speaking, a tall woman suddenly appeared behind her. The other party stepped on the high heels rattling, and directly passed Kang Yu into the room angrily.
"Yinyin, what does Qin Jue mean?!"
Gu Linlang put one hand on her hip, her brows furrowed, and her cheeks were also dyed crimson from anger.
She put the phone in front of Ruan Zhiyin.
The news headlines on the screen are sensational—
[New budding actress Lin Qingfei is suspected of cutting her wrist and sent to the doctor late at night, accompanied by her rumored boyfriend]
In the photo, the man is in a tailored dark suit. The tie was crisp, which made him look elegant and elegant. The profile of the gentle and handsome face, the eyebrows are furrowed, the bridge of the nose is straight, and the thin gold-rimmed glasses reflect the lens.
He is tall and broad, and he wraps his arms around the petite woman in his arms.
Lin Jingfei's pretty face was shy and timid, but her face was faintly weak and pale.
It is indeed a very dazzling scene-
However, with Lin Jingfei's pale face, Ruan Zhiyin looked like she had rubbed too much powder.
The media was worried about the Qin family and did not reveal Qin Jue's face, but it was not difficult for those who knew him to recognize him.
The watch in the man's hand was given by Ruan Zhiyin on his birthday last year. The side of the dial is engraved with the initials of their names.
Qin Jue liked it very much when he received it. He held her in his arms with warm eyes and a smile, and asked her to take off the watch that Qin's mother gave him when he was an adult, and put it on.
Then never picked it again.
The warmth at that time is vivid in my mind. Now, seeing the man carefully guarding another woman out of the hospital, Ruan Zhiyin felt a tingling spread even though she was determined to let go.
When feelings become habitual,
It does take time to forget.
She squeezed her knuckles tightly, trying to suppress the sourness, and glanced at the comments on Weibo.
[Y is Feifei's English name, kswl! 】
[Feifei Du posted on Weibo to explain that she cut her hands while cooking for her friends, and the spicy chicken marketing account also wrote about cutting her wrists. 】
【Cooking late at night? only friends? Forget it, anyway, these two are also open secrets in the entertainment industry. 】
[According to a friend who graduated from University A, Feifei and the male protagonist were in love with each other back then. 】
[Great, after all, straight men in the entertainment industry are cut. 】
Lin Qingfei entered the entertainment industry after graduation and is now a hot enough female star.
There is an entertainment company under the Qin family, and the general manager is Jiang Anzheng, a younger generation of Qin Jue, who has a good relationship with Lin Qingfei. Lin Qingfei terminated the contract with the previous company at the beginning of the year, and directly signed the ten-year brokerage contract with Qin.
The Ruan and Qin families are long-term friends, and the entertainment industry is deep in water. It seems that there is nothing wrong with Lin Qingfei asking Qin Jue to take care of it, at least Qin Jue and his group of friends think so.
After signing the contract, Lin Qingfei often crossed Jiang Anzheng for various reasons and called Qin Jue for help.
During the audition, the director moved his hands and feet, the crew had dinner and the investors suggested unspoken rules, and the seniors deliberately suppressed them during the filming.
Reasons emerged one after another, but the result was that Lin Qingfei rose to the top because of Qin Jue's escort, not only could not find any negative news, but her ambiguous relationship with Qin Jue also became a "secret" open to the entertainment industry.
And now, the two are on the hot search again.
Most of it was done on purpose by Lin Qingfei, but the most unresolved conflict between them was not Qin Jue, but that the Lin family didn't want Ruan Zhiyin to marry into the Qin family.
The Qin Ruan family got married, but the groom escaped marriage for his ex-girlfriend on the wedding day. Even if the wedding is postponed, in the eyes of outsiders, it is just a "submission" under pressure.
Ruan Zhiyin could imagine what kind of rumors the Ruan family would face after today.
She couldn't help but watch the Ruan family's reputation discredited, and her grandfather's body couldn't stand the excitement!
Thinking of this, she raised her eyes to look at Kang Yu: "The wedding will not be postponed, you continue to prepare."
She has a good temper and rarely gets angry over the years. But grandpa's health was getting worse and worse, and the Lin family did not care about grandpa's body at all, which did offend her.
Ruan Zhiyin's voice was calm, Kang Yu got the right words, quickly reacted, nodded and left.
On the other hand, Zhao He, who followed, looked at Ruan Zhiyin before he left, and his eyes were no longer deliberately pleasing, mixed with a bit of disdain like watching a good show.
—
"Lin Qingfei went to the hospital last night, and Qin Jue rushed to Beiyao overnight. I just received these photos, they should have been released by Lin Qingfei."
Ruan Zhiyin explained the photo to her friend.
Hearing this, Gu Linlang touched her chest with anger: "Is Lin Qingfei sick? She and Qin Jue have been separated for 800 years. What's the point of arranging this before your wedding?"
"Lin Cheng didn't want me to marry into the Qin family. My grandfather gave me the shares at the beginning. Lin Jingfei had a grudge since then. Maybe she did this because Lin Cheng had instructed her, or maybe she just wanted to disgrace me. Become a laughing stock."
Although Ruan Zhiyin and Lin Qingfei are related by blood, they are not affectionate cousins.
In Lin Jingfei's heart, Ruan Zhiyin was an intruder in her life. In Ruan Zhiyin's view, what the Lin family and Lin Jingfei did doomed their estrangement.
She couldn't repay her grievances with virtue, and the Lin family didn't deserve to let her forgive her lightly.
Gu Linlang looked up at her: "Aren't you angry?"
"Angry?" Ruan Zhiyin was silent for a moment, then chuckled, "Before you rushed in, I just told Qin Jue to cancel the engagement."
Gu Linlang was instantly dumbfounded, her face full of astonishment.
Gu Linlang knew Ruan Zhiyin's feelings for Qin Jue better than anyone else. But she also understands that Ruan Zhiyin's decision is almost impossible to change.
After a long time, she sighed, shook her head and said, "Qin Jue is really self-inflicted this time."
As a friend for more than 20 years, she still felt sorry for Ruan Zhiyin's dedication to Qin Jue.
Lin Qingfei had a relationship with Qin Jue back then, but they broke up not long after, and it was Lin Jingfei who mentioned it.
Later, Qin Jue, who was emotionally injured, went abroad to the school Ruan Zhiyin applied for.
Ruan Zhiyin accepted Qin Jue's pursuit in her second year abroad. Gu Linlang knew that they had a good relationship when they were abroad. Even if Qin Jue and the Qin family broke up in the middle, Ruan Zhiyin would not hesitate to accompany him.
From the establishment of Qin Jue's foreign company to the listing, Ruan Zhiyin did not know how much effort she put into it.
She rejected her mentor's recommendation for further studies, and did not choose to return to China, but gave all her savings to Qin Jue and accompany him through the most difficult days.
The former pride of heaven, when he first looked for investors, did not know how many closed doors he had received. Qin Jue couldn't lower his head and couldn't let go of his pride, all of which were Ruan Zhiyin's hard-working mediation behind his back.
During this period, the company suffered a blow and fell to a trough. Everyone felt that Qin Jue had failed in the bet with the Qin family, and only Ruan Zhiyin had been supporting and accompanying him.
Gu Linlang also thought that the two would go on, she still remembers Ruan Zhiyin's bright eyes during the New Year's Day video—
"Linlang, Qin Jue proposed to me. He said, we will get married when we return to China."
Gu Linlang understood why Ruan Zhiyin was happy.
Qin Jue proposed not because of their engagement, but because he really loved her, wanted to marry her, and made his promise.
But things are unpredictable. Ever since the two returned to China at the beginning of the year, Lin Qingfei began to act like a demon again and again based on their childhood sweetheart, and even Gu Linlang couldn't stand Qin Jue's actions.
On the other hand, Ruan Zhiyin just watched quietly.
It seems to be considerate and tolerant, but once such a person gives up, he will never look back.
"Linlang, no one's heart died suddenly. You don't have to worry about me. Although you can't say that your heart is as calm as water, you are indeed not as sad as you imagined."
Ruan Zhiyin gave Gu Linlang a reassuring smile.
She did not regret making this decision. Abandoning this feeling, in addition to being disappointed, was relieved.
Gu Linlang breathed a sigh of relief: "Since you're dead, why did you just say..."
She did not doubt that Ruan Zhiyin decided to cancel the engagement, but Ruan Zhiyin just said that the wedding would not be postponed.
"It's true that the wedding can't be postponed. Grandpa's body can't be stimulated. Originally, I wanted to cancel it, but since Lin Qingfei made up her mind to make me lose face—"
Ruan Zhiyin froze suddenly, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
"Then I can only change the groom."
