Chapter 32: She feels relieved knowing that you are not doing well
Because they were out having fun, Jing Rong turned up the ringtone so loud that no one could ignore him if someone contacted him. Quan Zhilong's lips parted slightly, but no words came out. Jing Rong took out his phone, glanced at it, and quickly put it away as if nothing had happened. He looked at Quan Zhilong calmly, "Are you going home?"
A hint of mockery flashed in Quan Zhilong's eyes, but he didn't say anything. Jingrong took a step towards the door and stood face to face with Quan Zhilong. She chuckled, "Aren't you leaving?"
Quan Zhilong finally moved and took Jingrong's wrist. "I think we need to talk."
"Okay, go ahead."
As if he didn't expect Jingrong to be so cooperative, Quan Zhilong was stunned for a moment before asking: "What do you think of our relationship?"
Jing Rong did not continue his conversation, but instead asked him, "Do you know why I don't want to live with you?"
"Why?"
Jingrong leaned close to Quan Zhilong's ear and whispered, "Because I don't want to smell you coming home with a different perfume every night!"
Quan Zhilong's eyes flashed, and his first reaction was to lower his head and sniff his collar. After this action, he realized that something was wrong. If she was intimate with other men, what right did she have to blame him? Quan Zhilong's eyes swept straight to Jing Rong again, but he saw that the other party was still calm, and there seemed to be a hint of fatigue in his eyes: "Seeing your woman being intimate with others unscrupulously, you should have experienced this feeling, right?"
"You..." His lips moved for a moment, but Quan Zhilong finally asked a question that seemed to be off topic, "You knew I was here a long time ago?"
"What else?" Jing Rong crossed his arms. "I was having dinner with a government official half an hour ago. Why would I rush here without even going home?"
Suddenly, the person catching the adultery changed from Quan Zhilong to Jingrong. Of course, the onlookers were unaware of this subtle change. They just watched their friend from afar with eyes that seemed to have lit up again. Quan Zhilong raised an eyebrow: "So, you're here to accuse me? You can be so sure that I did something wrong just by smelling a little perfume?"
Jing Rong's eyes moved away from Quan Zhilong. Quan Zhilong followed her line of sight and saw Kim and others standing in a row not far away, staring at them. Jing Rong's eyes seemed not to be looking at Kim, but at a girl next to him. Quan Zhilong's eyes flashed again, and he only heard Jing Rong's cold voice: "I don't want to know what you did with her at all, and I don't want to care whether you are also intimate with other women besides me, but Quan Zhilong..."
Quan Zhilong was stunned. He had never heard Jingrong call him by his full name like this, nor had he ever heard her voice so weak: "I feel tired too."
Turning to look toward the door, the woman in front of him had her back to him, so he couldn't see the deep affection in her eyes. Perhaps she had shed the toughness she'd always pretended to have? After all, she was a woman. No matter how strong she usually was, now with her long hair draped over her shoulders and her head slightly lowered, she had a somewhat pitiful charm. G-Dragon suddenly felt as if something was gripping his heart, tightening it tightly, a clenching pain. Only then did he realize that he wasn't as indifferent as he'd thought.
Yeah, why was she so indifferent? He knew Jingrong was a proud man, yet he kept giving in to her. She'd known he was here so she'd skipped a break and rushed over straight after finishing a social event. Or had she planned to visit his dorm after finishing her work? She didn't want to live with him because she didn't love him enough, didn't trust him enough, but because she was afraid they'd find out if they got closer that things weren't as good as they'd imagined? Even the scene she'd just shown in front of him and his friends was simply a result of anger.
If it were any other situation, Quan Zhilong would definitely not think so. Although he is confident, he is not crazy to this extent. However, Jingrong's feelings for him are really beyond doubt. In the two years they have known each other, Xue Jingrong has made exceptions for him countless times. It's ridiculous that he misunderstood whether the other party was hating because of love, and deliberately taking revenge because of his previous indifference. If it was really for revenge, she shouldn't be so hot and cold towards her at this time. Instead, she should first use tenderness and sweetness to completely bind him, let him fall deeply into it, and then reveal her true purpose - and now Jingrong's actions are probably really uncontrollable. She can't bear to leave him, but sometimes she can't control her emotions. As she said herself, because she doesn't want to smell the different perfume he wears when he comes home every night, she simply doesn't get close to him, so there is no need to worry about breaking the delicate balance between them.
One thought can make you a Buddha, one thought can make you a devil. G-Dragon was feeling bored the moment before, but now he realized that this woman was really loving him with her life, so her emotions were so difficult to control. She had just spent a sweet night with him yesterday, but today she was facing the crisis of breaking up.
—But Brother Long, weren't you the one who first decided to break up?!
G-Dragon felt that he was still a responsible man. The so-called responsibility meant explaining to his woman seriously. Even if the truth was not what he wanted, he still had to express what he should express. He took a step forward and tentatively put his right hand on Jingrong's shoulder. Seeing that the other party did not react, he raised the corner of his mouth and said softly: "You misunderstood, baby. Since I am with you, how could I be with another woman..." G-Dragon's idea was very simple. He thought that Jingrong rushed here quickly because she had heard about it. If she was really so sure, she would have rushed in long ago based on her previous personality. As for her staring at the girl who had been clinging to him all night, it was probably a coincidence - but even if she really had evidence, G-Dragon didn't think it was a big deal. She had always pretended not to know before. This time, he would apologize and express his attitude and the matter would be over.
But is it really so? Of course, if you were an outsider, you'd be complaining right now. If that's the case, why keep a boyfriend like that for Labor Day?! If he were a real boyfriend, Jing Rong would dump him in a second, no questions asked. But to Jing Rong right now, G-Dragon was just a boss. He'd just do his daily grind and go home. At most, his boss-slaying method was a little peculiar. But if you had to talk about it from a romantic perspective, Jing Rong didn't think it was a big deal. Everyone had different pursuits. The original owner's group of friends also spent their lives in love. They always had different people at every party, but that didn't mean they weren't in love. Some people fell in love because of their looks, some because of material things, and some simply because it was embarrassing that others had what they didn't. All sorts of strange reasons led to different expectations of their partners. Jing Rong didn't need this boyfriend to do anything for her. Whether he loved her or not was secondary. Jing Rong's true goal could be summed up in one sentence: knowing you weren't doing well, she'd feel at ease.
Even though Jing Rong looked down on the psychopath when he said that, she actually heard it clearly and remembered it vividly. She wanted to make him feel conflicted and uncomfortable first, so that he could feel the charm of love and gradually become deeply involved in it, worried about gains and losses, tossing and turning, unable to get the love he wanted, unable to pick it up or let it go, betrayed and deceived, and finally realize that the person he loves will never love him back - so in this game that has just begun, Jing Rong is really satisfied with G-Dragon's current performance.
In fact, Jing Rong has just mastered the essentials of the game. Judging from her condition, she estimates that she can enter the second step. This is just an opportunity for Quan Zhilong to really pay attention to her. So it’s not that she is unwilling to follow Quan Zhilong’s script. If you miss this opportunity, you will miss it too. Jing Rong silently apologized in her heart. Captain Quan always cooperates with her, but she has never cooperated with him once. It’s really wrong. Please forgive me qaq!
"Misunderstanding, what does it take to not be a misunderstanding?" Jing Rong gathered his emotions before suddenly turning around and meeting G-Dragon's eyes.
"Baby?" G-Dragon seemed a little confused, and his voice smelled of white lotus.
Jing Rong sneered for a moment, lowered his head and rummaged through his bag, pulled out the MMS messages on his phone, and showed them to Quan Zhilong one by one in front of him. They were all photos of him and the pure beauty interacting intimately in the box. Quan Zhilong narrowed his eyes. Normally, he would have walked away in anger. Everyone in and out of the circle knew that he hated this kind of thing the most, but this time he was in the wrong after all. Quan Zhilong endured it and asked in a good tone: "Did you send someone to follow me?"
"Sorry, if this is stalking, it wouldn't be just this." Jing Rong lowered his head, deleting the photos one by one, and said without looking up, "Besides, I don't have the leisure time for that."
G-Dragon watched Jingrong delete the message and saw the time it was received. Just a few minutes ago, G-Dragon realized he'd misunderstood. If it were a professional, it would have been a live broadcast. Sending it now, after all the dust had settled, wouldn't have been helpful. But he couldn't imagine who would have had a full stomach and nothing better to do than send something like that to his girlfriend's phone. After all, only his friends were in the room at the time. G-Dragon glanced down again. Jingrong had just deleted the last message. He glanced at the sender; it was an unfamiliar number.
For some unknown reason, G-Dragon looked in Kim's direction. It wasn't that he suspected his brother, but it was entirely possible that Kim would do this since he was so hostile to his girlfriend.
After finally deleting all the photos, Jing Rong put his phone back into his bag and said in a calm tone, "You've always been suspicious of me, right? What a coincidence. I've never dared to put my trust in you. Even though you're the only man I've ever loved and the man I love the most in my life, I've never tried to believe or rely on you. From this perspective, we can't be considered true lovers. In this case, going on will only be suspicion and testing, and in the end it will turn into torture... I'm really tired. Maybe love isn't something everyone can afford. Knowing that there will be no good results if I continue to cling to it, I should have let go long ago. If you could love me, you would have loved me a long time ago. Of course, it's not too late now... Let's end it here."
When Jing Rong said this, G-Dragon kept staring at her face, as if he wanted to see through every subtle change in her expression. Of course, the result disappointed him. Jing Rong was so calm throughout the whole process, even a little indifferent, with a blank expression and a calm tone, as if she was telling the story from the perspective of an observer, but strangely, G-Dragon seemed to feel her heartache.
If one word were to describe Jing Rong's current state, Quan Zhilong would probably choose "nothing is more sorrowful than a broken heart." But who is Quan Zhilong? This woman had clearly provoked him first, and he hadn't even called a halt. What right did she have?!
"I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble these days. I won't do it again..."
Jing Rong couldn't continue speaking because someone blocked her lips with a finger, "When we were together, you promised that you would never leave me on your own initiative."
Jing Rong frowned and thought for a long time before finally figuring it out. He immediately wanted to drag the original owner out and beat him up a hundred times. This was simply a disgrace to women, okay? It would have been fine if he was just throwing himself at her, but he even dared to make such a promise casually - this promise did not refer to agreeing not to break up actively, but Jing Rong also dug up another dark history of the original owner. No wonder she didn't take it seriously when she saw him catching her cheating. It seemed that he was giving her face by being willing to explain!
Damn it! Jing Rong felt like her worldview had been eaten by a dog. She wasn't a hot-tempered person, but the original owner did have a bit of an explosive temper. However, Jing Rong's reaction ability was also very fast. She immediately adjusted her mood, and said calmly with a hint of helplessness: "I thought you would be very happy. After all, there is one less woman who pesters you and makes you extremely dislike..."
"How do you know I don't like it?" Quan Zhilong's face gradually approached, and before Jingrong could react, he stretched out his hands to hold her waist, pressed his lips heavily on hers, and then there was a passion like a storm. Jingrong felt that her lips were rubbed raw before he was let go. Quan Zhilong's eyes seemed to have a floating light flowing, and he looked at Jingrong tenderly and said softly, "I'm sorry, maybe I made you misunderstand, baby, I don't know how to get along with you, it's not because you said I don't like you, think about it, we are together, and you are so good, how could I not like you?"
Although he is an expert in love affairs, Quan Zhilong's level of sweet talk is not very high. Even his confessions are so implicit. He never says "I love you". This is probably because there are not many women who really need him to coax them. But this is not contradictory. There is a saying that scarcity makes things valuable. A man like Quan Zhilong, who exudes arrogance from the inside out, even when saying sweet words, will make people feel that this is a supreme honor and they should kneel down and lick him. At this moment, he looked at Jingrong, his eyes softened, and his tone was deliberately gentle, as if showing his sincerity, which is really hard for women to resist. More importantly, he said next: "Just like feelings need to be cultivated, two people need to get along. You never say what you want, so I can only give according to my own understanding. Maybe I haven't noticed the things you really care about, but that is not a matter of principle. Baby, you can tell me all these things. If you don't like me getting too close to other women, if you mind the casual play that I am used to, you can tell me, and I will slowly change. Don't break up easily, okay? I don't want to let go of your hand at all."
G-Dragon was acting like a love saint at the moment. Not only Jingrong, who couldn't accept it, but even his friends who were watching were stunned. They had stayed just to watch a woman finally die after acting up. For example, Kim, who was secretly gloating over the woman's misfortune, finally couldn't help it at this moment and pulled the girl next to him forward: "G-Dragon, why don't you leave? Didn't you agree to take Angle home? We've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Hearing Kim's voice, Jing Rong immediately pushed Quan Zhilong and took a step back, exiting his embrace. Then he turned around and glanced at the two people walking towards him. Kim greeted Jing Rong enthusiastically: "Hey, Miss Xue, it's really you. I saw a girl who looked like you in the lobby on the second floor before, and I thought I was seeing things. After all, she had a close boyfriend at the time..."
Jing Rong glanced at them expressionlessly and said, "I'm leaving first. Goodbye."
"Wait a minute." Quan Zhilong quickly grabbed her hand, without even looking at the girl named An who kept winking at him, and said to Kim and the other onlookers, "Let's go back first." He didn't care about their reactions and walked out the door with Jingrong in his arms, complaining intimately, "Why are you leaving so fast? Are you willing to leave your darling outside?"
Meanwhile, in the fiery red sports car, Zhang Zhiyao played with his phone and laughed for a long time. Cui Yingya, who was driving, couldn't help but ask, "Why are you grinning at your phone?" She took a closer look and asked, "This doesn't look like the phone you usually use. Did you change your phone?"
"No, I borrowed it from the handsome waiter."
"How handsome is he that can make you smile foolishly for so long just looking at a phone?"
"What's important is not the phone itself, but the content inside it." Zhang Zhiyao smiled mysteriously.
Cui Yingya became even more curious. Taking advantage of the red light, she reached out and said, "What's on this? Let me see." As soon as she took it, she saw many photos. The male and female protagonists were the same, and the scenes seemed to have never changed. Cui Yingya tossed the phone back to Zhang Zhiyao and asked, "What is this? Evidence of adultery?"
"That's it."
"Did you send the photos to Jingrong as well?"
“How can we not release such a good resource?”
Cui Yingya paused, but said: "Actually, there is no need. The decision-making power has never been on Jingrong's side. If these things can wake Jingrong up, there is no possibility for them to be together! But if you just want them to break up, in fact, their behavior tonight is enough. Quan Zhilong must have seen the interaction between Jingrong and Zheng Yunhao. No man can tolerate such a thing. If he wants to break up, Jingrong's personality now should not be entangled, right?"
"Don't worry about that. They can't split it today."
"What's going on?" Cui Yingya suddenly turned to look at Zhang Zhiyao. "We went through all this trouble and came all the way to this store. Aren't we just trying to make them break up?"
"If it's Jingrong's fault, then the breakup also involved Jingrong being dumped. How could we sisters be so useless?"
"So you sent those photos?" Cui Yingya then continued, "No matter who said they were breaking up, I always felt they were done. Where did you get the confidence that they wouldn't break up today?"
"If Jingrong proposed breaking up, how could that extremely arrogant man agree? How could he allow himself to be dumped?"
The analysis seemed very appropriate. Cui Yingya nodded, but she was still a little confused: "You don't seem to want them to break up now?"
Zhang Zhiyao smiled meaningfully. "I always feel that things change over time. Look, isn't Jingrong doing very well now? She's been feeling frustrated for so long. Before she leaves, she should at least ask for some compensation for the time and youth she wasted."
