Chapter 157 There's nothing to say to you.
The consequence of Xu Songning's hangover was that he slept so soundly that he didn't know what was going on. He didn't get out of bed until nine o'clock after drawing the blackout curtains.
"I'll never drink again." Xu Songning rubbed his forehead in frustration. Luckily, he didn't have to work today, otherwise it would have really caused trouble.
Oh right, I think there was something I needed to do yesterday, but I didn't get to do it?
She stretched and walked into the bathroom, but her stretching motion came to an abrupt halt.
A bottle of disposable hair dye was placed on the sink.
"Lily, it's me."
A single sentence was like a thunderbolt, exploding in her mind.
Yesterday…she said it?!
She told Xiang Yun?!
In her drunken stupor, she actually revealed her deepest secret! She couldn't even imagine how Xiang Yun would react.
Xu Songning searched everywhere for his phone, turning over every drawer, but couldn't find it.
Just then, a faint ringing sound suddenly rang out in the living room.
Xu Songning hurriedly slipped on her slippers and ran outside. Damn it! She had left her phone in the living room yesterday and hadn't even taken it to the bedroom.
Drinking alcohol really does lead to trouble!
The small white bag lay quietly on the sofa, with scattered items on the table, and a cell phone ringing incessantly next to it.
Xu Songning didn't know how these things were scattered; her limited memory only contained the sentence she had confessed.
She crouched down, packing her things back into her small bag while answering the phone, "Hello, Qiaoqiao, what's up?"
"Songning, it's nothing, just asking if you're alright? The bartender keeps telling me that the drink is really good, very strong, and I..."
“It is quite tall.” Xu Songning paused.
"Huh? You drank yourself into oblivion?"
"It was almost there, but I'd rather have blacked out."
"Huh? What happened? Didn't you say you were going to confess to Captain Xiang yesterday? Did you confess? What was his reaction?" Zhou Qiao asked cautiously.
All that buildup was just to ask this question.
Xu Songning's throat was a little dry, and she had some difficulty speaking. "I think I confessed, but... I don't remember."
Zhou Qiao exploded on the other end of the phone, "What do you mean? You said you were Lily, but have you forgotten what happened after that?"
"To be precise, I fell into a deep sleep right after I said that, and I just woke up." Xu Songning propped his forehead up; the pain from the strong liquor was obvious and extremely uncomfortable.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the two cards crumpled into balls. She wondered how much force the person had used to mold the cards into such a state.
Zhou Qiao's voice was still ringing on the other end of the phone, but Xu Songning seemed not to hear her anymore, and picked up the playing card that was crumpled into deep creases.
One big ace, one small ace.
It turns out they were the most destined couple, and also the least destined couple.
The crumpled cards, like her crumpled heart, were wrinkled and sour.
Xiang Yun knew, he must have known. Their budding romance, like these two cards, was abandoned by him.
Even if it's a destined connection, it still seems to lack a bit of luck.
If she hadn't been drinking, if she had talked to him properly yesterday...would things have been different?
Even after getting enough sleep, Xu Songning still felt dizzy. She leaned against the wall for a while to catch her breath. "Qiaoqiao, he knows."
"So what do you plan to do?" Zhou Qiao asked her.
"Cold salad".
Xu Songning was extremely upset. No matter what, she had to find him first and explain the situation to him.
Being honest with yourself and being exposed by others are two different things.
Xu Songning opened the door, but the shoes by the door were gone, and he wasn't there; he didn't have any flight missions today.
She felt a wave of suffocation and stood at the door calling Xiang Yun.
They've come to this point; they simply can't get things straight if they don't talk to each other face-to-face.
If Xiang Yun is still willing to listen to her explanation in person.
The phone rang again and again, but no one answered.
Xu Songning sent him a WeChat message with trembling hands, deleting and rewriting the words she typed, going back and forth several times.
Xu Songning: Brother Yun, answer the phone.
Xu Songning: Give me a chance to explain
Xu Songning: When are you free?
The message went unanswered; she didn't reply, but she also didn't delete the message.
Xu Songning didn't know what to say, so he typed, deleted, and typed again in the chat box...
The words of explanation were "spoken" countless times under her fingertips, but the words were hollow and had no persuasive power; they only tugged at her heart, causing it to ache with each pang.
Xu Songning kept her phone with her, worried that Xiang Yun might reply to her message and she might miss the opportunity to communicate with him.
Several hours passed, and there was still no movement from the other side.
Xu Songning sent a sad emoji and lay on the table feeling upset. When she looked up, she saw the watch she had bought. Thinking of Xiang Yun's wrist, which had been bare for several days, she missed him even more.
"Quack".
A message finally popped up on my phone.
Xu Songning excitedly held his phone, opened WeChat, and his heart sank to the bottom again.
"Why do I have to be reminded even when the coupon expires?!" Xu Songning angrily unfollowed the account and slumped back onto the table in disappointment.
"Quack".
"Don't try to trick me into looking at my phone."
"Quack".
Another notification sounded.
Xu Songning swiped her phone and almost burst into tears. Xiang Yun had finally replied to her message.
But when she saw the news, her heart, which had been awaiting judgment, shattered.
Xiang Yun: Let's talk on WeChat if anything comes up.
Xiang Yun: Nothing to say? Then delete it.
Xu Songning's teeth ached terribly, and his hand trembled as he sent a "cat kiss" emoji.
Xiang Yun: ?
At a family gathering, the girl next to Xiang Yun was talking to her. Xiang Yun finally managed to take a quick look at her phone and saw the "cat kissing emoji," which almost made her laugh in exasperation.
Does this woman think she's not angry at all knowing about this? How can she calmly send him a flying kiss emoji? Or does she simply not care about his feelings?
Xu Songning: [Retracted a message]
Xu Songning: Wrong number! There are some things that can't be explained on WeChat, I need to talk to you in person!
Xiang Yun's face was clouded with gloom. He twirled his phone in his hand several times before looking at the girl next to him. "What did you just say?"
The girl wasn't embarrassed at all. She laughed and repeated the lame joke from before. Seeing that he wasn't paying attention and seemed to be waiting for some news, she said, "Xiang Yun, is there something you need to take care of? I've seen your phone ring more than a dozen times."
Xiang Yun swiped away all the missed calls at the top, replied with a message, and put his phone in his pocket. "Nothing important."
Xu Songning paced anxiously in the room, the carpet under his feet almost smoking.
If she knew where Xiang Yun was, she would have gone straight there to explain.
"Quack".
The message notification sound rang again.
When Xu Songning opened the message, he felt as cold as a pool in December, despite the May weather.
Xiang Yun: I have nothing to say to you, Miss Lili.
