Chapter 320
When Nangong Hao heard the other party advising him to find a partner, a half-smile appeared on his face, and then he looked at him meaningfully.
Then, Nangong Hao turned his gaze towards him and asked softly, "Ouyang, can you really let go of Ling'er?"
This question seemed to touch the softest spot in Ouyang's heart. He was slightly startled, and a trace of imperceptible pain flashed in his eyes.
Three years have passed, and the person he once loved deeply has long gone, but Ouyang still seems to be immersed in the memories of the past and unable to extricate himself.
Nangong Hao continued: "It's been so long, and the person has left. Shouldn't you try to let go of this relationship and start a new journey in life?"
However, facing Nangong Hao's sincere advice, Ouyang seemed a little impatient. He curled his lips and retorted: "I'm talking to you about your things, why are you involving me again!"
As he spoke, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he obviously didn't want to go deeper into this topic.
Nangong Hao sighed softly upon seeing this, and said slowly: "Actually, you at least had such a good time with Ling'er. Although you didn't end up together, at least you experienced many unforgettable moments together."
"But I am different. I only have endless regrets for Ruoan."
"But fortunately, seeing Ruoan living such a happy life now, I feel relieved. As long as she is doing well and happy, it is a comfort to me."
Speaking of this, Nangong Hao couldn't help but reveal a little loneliness and sadness.
At this time, Ouyang, who had been silent all the time, suddenly picked up the cup on the table, poured a glass of water for Nangong Hao, and handed it to him.
Then, Ouyang looked up at Nangong Hao and asked, "Did Ruoan tell you the specific reason why she rejected you?"
Nangong Hao took the cup, took a sip of water, shook his head and replied: "She said it because she was still young at the time, and her brothers stipulated that she couldn't fall in love before she passed the postgraduate entrance examination."
"I even told her solemnly that I was willing to wait for her, no matter how long it took."
"But who would have thought that when she finally passed the postgraduate entrance examination, she actually chose to be with Mu Mufan... Alas, maybe this is just luck. I can only say that there is still a lack of fate between Ruoan and me."
After saying this, Nangong Hao smiled bitterly with helplessness, his eyes full of loss and melancholy.
"I really don't want to lose to Zhou Mufan, but I don't feel too much resentment towards Leng Zexi, because I think that with his conditions and personality, he is indeed worthy of Ruoan."
After saying that, he slowly turned his head and cast his gaze towards the person next to him.
At this time, Ouyang was looking at Nangong Hao with a joking expression. After hearing what he said, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said with a smile: "Oh? In this case, it seems that Ruoan still gave you some face."
When Nangong Hao heard this, his brows furrowed and a strange feeling surged in his heart.
He keenly sensed that Ouyang's words seemed to hide something he didn't know, so he immediately asked, "What do you mean? Why did you suddenly say that?"
Ouyang slowly picked up another cup of water, drank a sip of water leisurely, then put the cup down, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Do you really think that the first time you met Ruoan was when I took you to that party?"
Nangong Hao was stunned by the question, and his mind quickly recalled the scene when he first met Ruo An. After hesitating for a moment, he replied: "Isn't it?"
"It was you who took her to the party, and that's how I got to know Ruoan."
"So that party should be the first time we met." After saying that, he looked at Ouyang puzzledly, waiting for him to give further explanation.
However, Ouyang just chuckled, shook his head, and said with a sigh: "Alas, it seems that Ruoan really didn't tell you this."
"When Ruo An first met you, you and that pretty girl from the Foreign Languages Department had parted ways."
"At that time, you said that changing women was as casual as changing clothes. You couldn't even remember how many girlfriends you had. You said it was just for fun and advised others not to take it seriously."
"Not only that, you even shamelessly declared that you had no intention of getting married in the future, so you told the other party not to fall in love with you anymore."
Ouyang saw all of this, turned his head to look at you, and said slowly: "Ruo An was listening beside you at the time. After I took her away, do you know what she said about you?"
Nangong Hao was shocked when he heard this. He had never expected such a coincidence to happen in the world. He looked quite embarrassed for a moment and could only ask, "What did Ruoan say about me later?"
Ouyang raised his eyes and stared at you straight, then slowly said, "You rascal! Any relationship that is not for the purpose of marriage is a rascal's behavior."
After saying this, Ouyang shook his head slightly and continued to narrate the subsequent events: "In fact, the reason why Ruoan got together with Zhou Mufan was entirely to repay him for saving her life."
"Originally, Ruoan should have been safe and sound. That day, Zhou Mufan accidentally saw Ruoan being intercepted and entangled by a group of people. Because the other party had a large number of people, Ruoan was alone and weak and could not resist, and finally he was unable to resist."
"At this critical moment, Zhou Mufan stepped forward and successfully rescued Ruoan."
"He could have successfully taken Joan away before she was stopped. It would not have been difficult for him. He only needed to send a message to Joan."
"However, he did not do so. In a way, he was no different from those who wanted to harm Juan."
"Obviously, his purpose in doing so was obvious - he wanted to make Joan feel grateful to him and use this opportunity to force Joan to become his girlfriend."
"But what's even more hateful is that he never considered being with Ruoan for real, and had no plans to get married. He was just playing with her feelings."
"Do you know what Zhou Mufan was thinking? He might have cared about Ruoan, but at that time Ruoan's identity was not made public, so he thought Ruoan was from a poor and powerless family, and he actually wanted Ruoan to be his mistress."
"He really dares to think so." Ouyang said sarcastically.
"Ruo An is the kind of person who pays attention to the beginning and the end of everything, especially when it comes to feelings. He will not tolerate any blasphemy or teasing. Ruo An will definitely not continue to tangle with him if he just wants to have fun."
“Besides, Ruoan has always been fond of people with noble character and pure integrity.
Even when she first met Zhou Mufan, she had no feelings for him at first, and only interacted with him because he saved her life."
"From this we can see that in the end it was Zhou Mufan who was the first to betray Ruoan's kindness, which led to Ruoan resolutely leaving him." Ouyang explained all this in a clear and orderly manner.
"So, Ruo An was not blind to your pursuit and indifferent. Instead, you left a very bad impression on her from the very beginning."
"By now, you should understand why Ruoan has always refused to accept you, right?" Ouyang said earnestly.
Nangong Hao didn't expect it to be because of this.
Nangong Hao looked at him calmly and explained slowly: "They and I are just using each other. They covet my wealth, and I use them to resist those annoying bad peach blossoms."
"As for the final decision to break up, the reason is very simple, it is nothing more than that they are pushing their limits and crossing the line. From the beginning of the relationship, I explained the conditions to those women very clearly and clearly, and both sides got what they wanted."
"However, they were too greedy, and their desires kept growing. In the end, I had no choice but to separate them decisively. But I can pat my chest and say that from beginning to end, I have never treated anyone unfairly."
Ouyang responded seriously: "But no matter what, you have had many girlfriends before and after, and this is an unchangeable fact. In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, you will inevitably be labeled as 'playboy'."
"When you first started pursuing Ruoan, that's why I advised her to stay away from you."
Hearing this, Nangong Hao couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked in disbelief: "Why do you think of me like this? We have been classmates and close friends for many years!"
Ouyang did not give in at all, and argued confidently: "Yes, we are good friends, but you have never told me the truth about your private interactions with those girlfriends."
"Besides, I'm not very interested in digging into this matter, so I can only judge the truth based on what I saw with my own eyes. Is there anything I did wrong in this matter?"
Nangong Hao was unable to refute, "So the reason you didn't agree with me pursuing Ruoan was because I had multiple girlfriends before."
Ouyang nodded, "A big reason is yes, I feel you are not worthy of Ruoan."
"Zexi, you know that he appeared in front of Ruoan cleanly from the beginning to the end. What he wanted was very clear, and what he gave to Ruoan was also very clear."
"Look for yourself. A man who makes others bow down to him is willing to bow down for Ruoan again and again. I don't think you can find a man who loves Ruoan more than Zexi."
"I don't know if you would treat Ruoan the same way Leng Zexi did if you were really with her, but I am sure that you have been comparing her to Leng Zexi from the beginning."
"When you first told me that you wanted to pursue Ruoan, you compared her to the people you had dated before."
"Leng Zexi never compares Ruoan with others. He simply likes Xia Ruoan."
