silently
Things either don't happen at all, or when they do, there are a whole bunch of them.
Wen Zhuyao hadn't yet figured out the connection between her suddenly appearing aunt and the actual family dynamics.
It's like this again here.
"Could you explain it more clearly? I don't know what I can do for you." Her first two things were somewhat connected and had a clue.
On one side is my own, and on the other side, although we don't see each other often, we have a close and memorable relationship.
But their appearance was so utterly unexpected.
Knowing he was in a lot of trouble, Chen Yan decided to be direct: "You can listen to everything before you decide. After we left school, we wanted to continue our careers, but my family blocked us from doing so."
“They started by nagging me, but became increasingly extreme, resorting to verbal abuse, intimidation, threats of death, and even kidnapping me to go on blind dates.”
Wen Zhuyao's initial surprise and bewilderment at their sudden appearance gradually dissipated, and she also found an answer to what he wanted to say.
What followed confirmed her suspicions.
“That’s right. This blind date was probably the umpteenth one I’ve been forced into. But this time, I heard your name mentioned by them.” He didn’t know whether to feel relieved or sorry for each other.
“I asked you about your situation in detail and learned that you are the kind of person they described as both resistant and compromising. They also want me to get in touch with you, hoping to turn me into that kind of person.”
"I dare to contact you because we've seen what you posted, and we know you also have a partner."
A large part of the people who dare to ask questions, take risks, and be presumptuous come from romantic relationships.
She also has a lover, and this is what her surroundings are like.
"From what we've met and what they've told us about you, you're not an easy person. I think we'll experience the same things in our relationships."
Chen Yan: "I apologize for my filthy thoughts."
Chen Yan: "Perhaps you agreed to this, which means you're already giving up, but I want to say, for the sake of your own life, don't give up so easily."
"If you need a reason to resolve these issues without bearing any burden, please help us."
The news stopped there, but the shock to Wen Zhuyao went far beyond that.
She was caught in a complex and indescribable emotional state, and she dared not think about whether she would feel the same way if no one helped her.
I stayed for quite a while, long enough for the answer to be submitted automatically.
Chen Yan: "It's okay if you don't need it. I wish you can always move towards the life you want. Thank you."
No.
Wen Zhuyao realized what was happening and typed a reply: "I need to know how I can cooperate with you."
"Let's arrange a time to meet and talk," Chen Yan said, setting a time for the afternoon of the day after tomorrow at a coffee shop on the street.
This simple request for help seems to have made Wen Zhuyao understand a lot.
"Don't give up easily for the sake of your own life."
His words greatly inspired Wen Zhuyao, giving her a path out of her uncertainty about the relationship, or rather, about Mo Wen.
The ultimate reason is not because of them or him.
In reality, Wen Zhuyao simply didn't want to face these things and remained in a state of uncertainty, as if she were on a disc that needed to maintain its balance.
She dared not trust any option that did not tend towards stability; she was afraid, she dared not even think about it.
The small boat's swaying was merely the gentle breeze, but Wen Zhuyao felt it was the prelude to a surging wave.
Now she understands. She has dispelled the fog in her heart and seen a lighthouse in the deep sea. She is determined to work hard for her life.
Effort is for creation, not for giving up; it's about striving for what she can and has the ability to do.
Regain your confidence and seize the courage to overcome difficulties.
“But… if we fail, we won’t even be able to be friends anymore.” Mo Wen’s tone became increasingly negative throughout the conversation.
Ji Shu sighed deeply: "I'm too lazy to even talk to you anymore. If you're scared, think it through. Why do you want to be in a relationship? Why do you like her? Why are you worried about your relationship?"
"Is it impossible not to be in a relationship? Is it impossible not to like someone?"
Bai Yuzhou: "The answers are discovered little by little. Once you start from one point, you will no longer be afraid."
"That makes so much sense!" Chi Nuo rolled in and gave a thumbs up.
She thought for a moment and asked, "What if I end up confusing myself? Why do I like to eat? Because I crave it. Why do I crave it? Because it tastes good."
"If something is delicious, should we keep eating it without changing it? Yes, won't you get tired of it? Yes..."
Chi Nuo rambled on and on: "What should we do about this? It seems pointless."
“What if someone objects to you eating it and hates candied hawthorn? They might tell you that the one you tried wasn’t good.” Bai Yuzhou gave a real example.
Chi Nuo thought for a moment and said, "Isn't what I eat my own business? He hates me but I won't force him to eat. He's so nosy. I'll only know if it's good or not after I try it."
“That’s good,” Bai Yuzhou said, seeing that she had found the answer. “If you truly treat it as your own business, you will naturally find the answer yourself.”
Mo Wen entered a state of deep thought as soon as Chi Nuo entered and began asking questions.
Like a child re-engaging with the world, every step requires learning. But how much should one learn?
have no idea.
Whether he can think independently and develop related questions further, Mo Wen is clearly not the type with that talent.
Do you like it?
"like……"
"Why does it have to be her... because..." Mo Wen hadn't seriously thought about it; he just felt that it was this person.
"Because her appearance brought me a different feeling, a feeling that no one can replace, I want her to stay by my side."
"Why did you have to do this..."
Mo Wen seemed to have a stubborn answer: "She is special to me. As long as she likes me, nothing can stop her."
"Nothing can stop us."
Wen Zhuyao reopened her account and saw the video again.
She hesitated whether to reply.
Even though I've thought it through and made up my mind, I'm starting to wonder if I'll be forgiven.
Her immaturity is quite significant; after all, everyone has to pay the price for their choices, and she's an adult, so how difficult can it be?
Wen Zhuyao simply stopped thinking about these things and threw away all her emotions. She opened her account's message list for the first time in a long time.
I saw many private messages inside, some asking when I would resume updating, some offering comfort, and others coming from Mo Wen.
Wen Zhuyao posted a statement announcing her return to updating, offering only a few simple explanations about the matter, as if everything had passed and things had returned to a peaceful state.
It seems... to include their relationship.
After the statement was released, Mo Wen came to see her, briefly...
Mo asked, "How's the weather where you are? I saw a report saying it's very cold with snow. Keep an eye on the temperature."
"Okay, how about over there?" After sending the message, Wen Zhuyao checked the weather and saw that the temperature over there was neither too high nor too low.
Mo Wen made conversation: "It's alright here, not as cold as in previous years."
"Oh, by the way, there's a package coming in a few days. Remember to pick it up. It's a winter specialty from my area. You'll like the taste. I sent some to everyone." Mo Wen lied again. After all, not everyone needs to be sent something.
He bought them for Ji Shu and Bai Yuzhou on the spot, and Chi Nuo also sent them over.
Wen Zhuyao: "Okay."
The chat returned to normal, but the distance between them increased, and neither of them mentioned the past.
They are all preparing for a confession that will never happen.
Mo Wen ended the day's chat in the group chat and then sent a message to Chi Nuo privately.
Chi Nuo, who was quietly slacking off and preparing to go to sleep, was startled by the pop-up message about a money transfer and dared not click on it.
"No way, what do you mean by this?" Chi Nuo was too scared to say anything.
Mo asked, "Please help me out. Spend some time with Xiaozhu to help her relax and have a good time. I want to see her at the New Year's gathering. Please help me."
"Is this all?" she asked, still unsure.
Mo Wen replied firmly, "Yes, this is it. Don't worry about it, just accept it. Remember to contact me if you need more money for reimbursement."
"receive."
After receiving the money, Chi Nuo immediately switched to the group chat to send a message. As the most crucial member, she was entrusted with the important task of breaking the ice!
It's just a matter of atmosphere and a few words.
This is something she excels at.
"Good evening, everyone! There are less than two weeks until Chinese New Year. When should we hold our long-awaited post-New Year's gathering?" Chi Nuo appeared in the group chat, holding her bouncy pig emoji.
Chi Nuo continued: "Winter is the season to appreciate snow, is anyone willing to go with me to enjoy the beautiful scenery?"
"Sure, we're available all month of February, anytime is fine." Ji Shu's phone went silent for a short while before ringing again.
She replied briefly and then withdrew from this ice-breaking operation that wasn't hers to participate in.
Wen Zhuyao returned with washed fruit, looking at her phone as she ate: "I'm free all the time, anytime is fine."
Then I went to reply to Chi Nuo's private message.
Chi Nuo: "Hey Xiao Zhu, I want to go out and find some candied hawthorns again. Come out with me on a nice day~"
Chi Nuo: "You know, I always make sure you treat me to delicious food when we go out."
"Going out is fine, but I might not have much time starting the day after tomorrow." Wen Zhuyao thought of the promise she had made.
We'll have to meet and discuss it in person to find out the specifics.
Simply put, she doesn't need anything; she just needs to play a pre-defined role.
The difficult part is that she has her own scenes, so there's no telling when the show will end.
Chi Nuo was a little puzzled and asked, "What's wrong? This is the first time in years that I've heard you say that you don't have enough time at this time."
"It's nothing, it's just..."
Wen Zhuyao hesitated for a moment before saying, "There was a submission that I accepted, so I need to rush to finish it."
"We finished what we had planned before, and this new one too, at the original time."
Chi Nuo: "Oh, I see. Good luck then. I'll wait for you to call me. I'm always free."
"How about tomorrow?" Wen Zhuyao has a confirmed free time tomorrow, so let's use that time to go out and have some fun.
Chi Nuo: "Okay!"
