Chapter 26 Xiao Jing, Why Are You Crying?
The banquet lasted until the evening, during which time Yi Zongyu and Yi Chang met many bigwigs in the business circle.
Because he had just returned from Switzerland, he wanted to get to know some of the unfamiliar faces in Beijing in recent years.
"Zong You." Yi Chang called him, "Don't leave yet."
Yi Zongyu turned around and saw Lin Xiangshi and Lin Shuyu standing next to Yi Chang.
"What's wrong."
"Your Uncle Lin and I have something else to discuss. Shu Yu didn't drive today. Please take her back."
Yi Zongyu and Lin Shuyu looked at each other and said, "Okay."
The two walked side by side out of the villa. Looking at their backs, Lin Xiangshi smiled and said to Yi Chang:
"Zong You is a very good kid, but he's a little bit bad at speaking."
"He has had this character since he was young," Yi Chang commented, "It makes me feel like his son."
"Haha, don't say that."
"If I had known, I would have left before you." Lin Shuyu was a little helpless, "Now I have to ask you to send me off."
"It's okay. The secretary drove here." Yi Zongyu replied.
Lin Shuyu followed him not too far away and glanced at Yi Zongyu.
"I heard that you have been doing well in Switzerland in recent years. The industry there is still on the rise. Why did you come back?"
"It's the same everywhere." Yi Zongyou said and opened the car door for her.
Lin Shuyu thought about it and it made sense. In fact, with a fortune like his, he would surely attract everyone's attention wherever he went.
The two had known each other since childhood because their parents were good friends. However, since Lin Shuyu's school was in France and he seldom came back, they did not meet very often.
But we don't like each other, we are just ordinary friends.
Unfortunately, as they grow older, the parents of the two families are always trying to bring them together intentionally or unintentionally, and scenes like today's are unavoidable.
"Take me to the Half-awake Bar." Lin Shuyu said to the secretary, "Thank you for the trouble."
"Ok."
Lin Shuyu didn't explain why she didn't go home, and Yi Zongyu didn't ask any more questions.
The villa is located in a relatively western part of Beijing. It takes more than half an hour to drive back. The two of them were silent along the way, but they felt more relaxed than before.
At least there won't be any elders to help bring us together.
The night was dim. Lin Shuyu leaned back in her chair and looked out the window. Her bright and beautiful face showed a hint of fatigue.
As we approached the city center, it started to rain, accompanied by faint thunder.
"Fuck, you drank so much?" Chen Ce supported He Lewei, "It's not enough to just break up."
Yu Jing held an umbrella for the two of them with one hand, held He Lewei's other arm with the other hand, and spoke helplessly.
"Stop talking, has the taxi arrived yet?"
"It's raining and there's a traffic jam, but this driver doesn't move much on the map. I'm impressed."
While speaking, He Lewei started vomiting again. The two men were unable to dodge and quickly helped him to the side of the road.
Yu Jing patted him on the back gently, looking worried:
"Or else go to the hospital, you're vomiting like this."
"Bullshit, how can a grown man end up in the hospital after drinking a little?" Chen Ce refreshed the location on his phone and spoke sharply.
"Let him learn this lesson."
Yu Jing wiped He Lewei's face with a tissue again, looked at the rain falling heavier on the street, wondering if he could find a taxi nearby.
His sight was fixed on a black car. It was a bit far away, but he could tell at a glance that the person who got out of the car was Yi Zongyu.
Yu Jing was a little surprised and smiled, but his smile froze the next second.
The man, holding an umbrella in his hand, walked to the other side and opened the car door, and a girl got out of the car.
Yi Zongyu was considerate enough to hold an umbrella for her. The girl was wearing a black fishtail skirt.
Her ink-like hair was curled into waves and draped over her shoulders. Her face couldn't be seen clearly, but her back was very beautiful.
Two people walked into a store side by side.
Yu Jing looked up and saw that he was half awake.
He was stunned for a moment, and a dark shadow slowly crept into his heart, as if it was being tightly grasped by a pair of hands, and his breathing became a little difficult.
I remembered what Jiang Jingxuan said that day. Yes, we slept together the first time we met, and I still expected the other person to think that I was important.
There was no prior acquaintance, no confession of feelings, let alone a confirmed relationship.
Just by a few sweet words, Yu Jing was deeply attracted to it.
No wonder they said they were stupid, because they were stupid. In fact, if you think about it, you will understand that someone with Yi Zongyu's status will eventually be relegated to a family marriage.
How could she be with me, with a man? It was so stupid. Yu Jing's fingertips turned white as he gripped the umbrella handle, and he thought to himself that he was really too slow.
It is only when you see the truth of the matter with your own eyes that you feel so sad and so bloody grief.
"Xiao Jing, Xiao Jing, don't be distracted, the car is coming."
Chen Ce touched his arm, and he came to his senses. The two of them helped He Lewei into the car.
He Lewei and Chen Ce sat in the back row. Chen Ce kept mumbling and scolding the former and even fed him water from time to time.
Yu Jing sat in the passenger seat, and it seemed as if all his strength had been drained from his body. The only thing he could feel was the back of the chair behind him.
Why is it raining so heavily?
Two people dragged He Lewei into the dormitory. Jiang Jingxuan was cooking sobering soup in a small pot and said that he had bought some medicine and put it on the table.
I had to feed He Lewei medicine, and during that time I kept hearing him say that he felt sad and that he didn't want to break up.
"We have to break up even if we don't want to. Hurry up and open your mouth and take the medicine." Chen Ce said sarcastically.
Yu Jing remained silent until Chen Ce looked at him cursing and was stunned.
"No, he's heartbroken. Why are you crying, Xiaojing?"
Yu Jing came back to his senses and subconsciously touched the corners of his eyes, which were wet.
"I am fine."
When I opened my mouth I realized my voice was hoarse and rough.
Chen Ce touched his forehead and said, "Well... you don't have a fever, you won't catch a cold, go get some hot water first, there's a kettle on the balcony."
Yu Jing went to pour water in silence again and drank it as if he had completed a task.
After a whole night of noise, the dormitory finally became quiet.
Jiang Jingxuan was worried about Yu Jing, so he put some cold medicine on the table for him and reminded him to take it.
Yu Jing snuggled in the quilt and said okay.
But he didn't move until the lights in the dormitory were turned off.
Tears kept flowing, soaking a large area of the pillow corner, and Yu Jing sniffed softly.
My throat hurts and itches, as if it were blocked by a ball of cotton.
I am just too stupid. Why can't I learn to adapt? I think as long as I do that kind of thing, I want to be devoted and give everything to the other person.
We've only known each other for such a short time, but my heart aches so much that I feel like I'm suffocating.
There was still no reply to the message Yi Zongyu sent an hour ago. His phone vibrated again just now, but Yu Jing didn't look at it.
As expected, Yu Jing had a fever the next day.
He was half asleep and half awake with a fever in the morning. Before daybreak, he fumbled to get up and took medicine, then lay back in bed with no strength left in his body.
But he was so panicked that he couldn't sleep. He felt pain and anxiety, as if there was something waiting for him to do in the next second.
I took out my phone, opened WeChat, and saw the message from last night.
Yi Zongyou: "Are you asleep? Can I call you?"
Half an hour later, he sent another message: "Remember to reply when you see the message in the morning. Good night."
Yu Jing sniffed and slowly transferred all the money in the card to him. It definitely wouldn’t be enough, but it was only for this month.
Pay it back slowly and it will be fine.
The other party replied quickly, as if he hadn't slept all night:
"?"
"What's the money for?"
Yu Jing didn't reply and hung up the phone.
The temperature was low in the morning, so he huddled back into the quilt, wrapping himself up, and his eyes began to become wet again.
I couldn't sleep, my head was burning and I felt dizzy. I had already blocked all the gaps in the quilt, but I was still so cold and shivering.
Half an hour later, his cell phone vibrated. He looked and saw that it was Yi Zongyu calling.
After thinking it over, I answered the call.
"What's the meaning."
The man's voice was clear and cold, yet still so pleasant to hear.
Yu Jing could no longer hold back her tears, which flowed from her left eye into her right eye socket, and she finally fainted on the pillow.
He tried to make his voice sound normal.
"I'll transfer part of the money I owe you first."
There was silence for about half a minute.
"Come out, I'm at the gate of your school."
Yu Jing's heart trembled, and for some reason a feeling of fear came over him.
He was afraid to face Yi Zongyu, afraid to see those sharp and deep eyes.
His mind was still thinking and his nerves were frightened, but he had already started to put on his clothes despite a high fever of 39 degrees. His feet felt like they were stepping on soft cotton.
Not knowing how he got to the school gate, he held on and saw a familiar figure leaning against the car, seemingly smoking a cigarette.
The wind in the early morning is very cool, which makes people think clearly.
