Seeing Guan Wenru's determined gaze, Bai Yun felt much more at ease and nodded vigorously, "Yes! I'll listen to you, sister!"
......
In the evening, He Yanzhi came back and had dinner, and he was responsible for cleaning up the dishes.
After dealing with the situation, he played with the triplets for a while before going back to the camp for training.
When he returned, the triplets were already fast asleep in their small bed in the room.
He Yanzhi wanted to take them away, but Guan Wenru strongly objected.
In the end, He Yanzhi had no choice but to accept it. He took a bath, went to bed, and sat next to her on the kang (a heated brick bed).
Guan Wenru put down her book and brought up Xi Mufan's matter with him.
After she finished speaking, she frowned deeply. "I still don't understand... What's wrong with Xi Mufan? Is he really that bad? I hadn't even finished speaking when I mentioned Bai Yun's name, and he just hung up! Like he was avoiding a plague!"
Do you think he hates Xiaoyun to the core? Does he feel betrayed and his pride wounded, so he leaves no room for reconciliation? But… the Xi Mufan I know isn't like that.”
He Yanzhi turned and put his arm around her shoulder. "Don't rush. If I were him... to be honest, I would definitely feel angry and frustrated after being pushed away like that."
But to say that she hates him so much that she doesn't even want to hear his name, and has no lingering feelings for him... that's really not the case! After all, they've had such a long relationship, Xiaoyun hasn't really changed her mind.
Guan Wenru looked up at him. "Then tell me, why did he act like that? Just because Xiaoyun took it upon herself to act in that play?"
He Yanzhi pondered for a moment, his eyes becoming deep, "I think... it might be more than that. His reaction was so intense and so ruthless, it was indeed a bit abnormal."
Could it be… that something really happened on his end? Something that's causing him immense concern, perhaps even making him think that Xiaoyun pushed him away for a different reason? Or… something that makes him unable to face Xiaoyun?
Guan Wenru was even more confused. "What could have happened to him? It's just going to university, right? Could it be... that he found someone else in the capital? Is that why he feels guilty? Doesn't want to have anything to do with Xiaoyun anymore?"
Thinking of this possibility, Guan Wenru's brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly.
He Yanzhi shook his head, "It doesn't seem like it. We know Xi Mufan to some extent. He's not the kind of person who's cold-hearted and fickle."
Moreover, if he really had someone else, he could have just said it outright or given it the cold shoulder; there was no need for him to hang up on you so abruptly and not even listen to you.
Besides, given your friendship of so many years, even if there's absolutely no possibility between him and Baiyun, he shouldn't treat you like this.
Guan Wenru sighed, her face full of worry, "Sigh... I can't figure it out! It's so worrying! Xiaoyun's condition can't be left like this any longer!"
He Yanzhi was aware of this as well.
He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "Don't worry, I'll make the call tomorrow. No matter what, I'll find him and explain everything clearly. Don't think about it tonight, relax, okay?"
Guan Wenru leaned against him, feeling his body temperature and strength. Her tense nerves relaxed a little, and she responded with a muffled "Mmm".
