Chapter 10 Qiutang and Wen Nian can’t possibly dislike me
What surprised them even more was that Xu Zhijian, who had never allowed himself to suffer any loss since childhood, did not have any temper in front of this girl.
Although he was pretending, they had been dealing with each other for more than ten years after all, and they all knew that this guy was not like this when he was angry.
"Stop slandering me." Knowing that he was not in the right, Xu Zhijian quickly ended the conversation: "It's just some information, I'll send it to you later. Now hang up."
Before hanging up the phone, Wen Nian heard a sentence from the other end: "Lao Xu, this wine has a strong aftereffect, be careful when you go out."
She didn't care much about it, as it wasn't Xu Zhijian's first time drinking.
Moreover, he can drink a lot.
On this side, Xu Zhijian put on his coat and prepared to go out.
Ping Weichen teased: "I'm not saying anything, you've really become a bootlicker. People don't want you anymore, so why are you so obedient? Can you have some backbone, Xu Zhijian?"
"Go away, I think you are the dog."
Xu Zhijian opened the door, thought of something, and left another sentence: "Also, no one wants you. It's impossible for Wen Nian to dislike me. Even if she doesn't like me temporarily, I can make her like me again."
When he said this, he was full of confidence and a little condescending: "Anyway, I can't explain it to you singles, so stop using those plastic feelings to describe us. I'm leaving."
"Heh." Ping Weichen couldn't help but curse at his back: "Look at that dog-like behavior of his. One second he was pretending to be a superior and putting on airs, and the next second he was pretending to be noble. What a fool. What a fool."
"Also, who's single? I have a girlfriend, who am I looking down on?"
The person next to him shook his head helplessly and smiled: "I am a little curious about what kind of person Lao Xu's girlfriend is that he cares so much about her."
Ping Weichen raised his chin and said indifferently: "Aren't there only a few types of girls in this world? I have seen all kinds of them. I am not interested."
Now, Chang Jun had the final say. He shook his wine glass and said, "How can I describe it to you? Anyway, his girlfriend is different from all the girls I've met. She's very special and lovable beyond words."
He didn't know why, but from the first moment he saw Wen Xiaonian, he felt that this was a treasure.
She is beautiful but not shocking, and exudes a bright aura all over her body. It is not the brightness of ordinary personality, but the kind of innate charm of life.
Beneath his gentle appearance, he carries endless tenacity.
Like the sun, yet unlike the sun, she possesses the most sincere and pure love, but this love can only warm a special person. To be precise, it is an exclusive light.
Therefore, he always felt that being liked by her should be a very happy thing.
Coming back to his senses, Chang Jun shook his head, as if drunk, and said sadly: "Besides, he is right. Everyone here is single."
Ping Weichen was unconvinced: "What do you mean?"
Chang Jun smiled and stopped talking: "You won't understand even if I tell you."
People in their circle have long been accustomed to a life surrounded by new things, because this allows them to stay happy for a long time.
Even in love, if you are happy, then date; if you are unhappy, then change.
However, true love is not just about happiness.
Maybe they will never understand.
After all, they are not Xu Zhijian, and they will never meet a girl like Wen Xiaonian.
Before seeing Xu Zhijian in love, he didn't understand these things. Now that he understands, he's actually a little envious.
Comparing yourself with others will only make you angry.
They grew up together, but they didn't know when this person became different from them.
—
Wen Nian lay on the sofa, watching TV series while waiting for news from Xu Zhijian.
He was chewing a peach in his mouth.
The more you chew, the more exciting it becomes.
Crunching sound, as if biting the head of someone you hate into pieces.
About twenty minutes later, Xu Zhijian received a voice call.
She answered and said bluntly, "Hello."
A completely different voice came from the other side, a deep, hoarse tone. "I found the information. Where do you live? I'll send it to you."
Wen Nian could tell that he was drunk.
Unconsciously slowing down his tone, he said, "No need. Just take a picture and send it to me."
There was a long pause, and the voice gradually became dumber: "I'm not very good at taking pictures."
"Well...just wait...I'll deliver it to you right away."
"No——" Before he could utter a word, the phone was hung up.
What the hell?
Wen Nian was confused.
She called back immediately, but no one answered.
I sent you a message, but no one replied.
The sky is falling.
No matter if he is drunk or not, can you please give her the documents first!
Wen Nian suppressed her anger, staring at the ceiling with despair, wanting to cry but unable to: "There are still three hours until the deadline. It's over."
Will her colleagues think she is unreliable?
Will you say bad things about her behind her back in the future?
Will my salary be deducted?
The more he thought about it, the worse it got. Wen Nian curled his lips and sank headfirst into the sofa.
About half past midnight, Xu Zhijian finally called again: "Hello, I should be here soon."
Wen Nian was speechless: "Do you know where my home is? I'll be there soon."
"I know... Hey... Why is there that bright light up ahead... It turns out to be a lake." He vowed confidently, even a little excitedly: "Wait for me, wait until I jump over, and then I'll give you the documents!"
"...Xu Zhijian, stop pretending, you're crazy."
I am speechless.
It's not like she had seen him drunk before, so he wouldn't be so stupid.
"What did you say?" Xu Zhijian raised his voice, "This lake is called...Qiutang."
Who asked you? Wait.
Qiutang...that's not...
Wen Nian stood up doubtfully and ran to the balcony.
The wind was quite strong at night on the tenth floor, gently blowing up her floral nightgown.
Of course, the view here is also extremely wide.
I saw a familiar black figure standing by the lake surrounded by bright lights not far away.
She frowned and pinched her palms.
This idiot actually showed up.
By the lake, Xu Zhijian staggered and walked step by step towards the steps leading down to the lake.
Where no one was observing, the incandescent streetlights flashed across a pair of cunning black eyes.
one.
two.
three.
"Xu Zhijian, are you sick? Why don't you just send it to me? If you don't want to die, I advise you to stay away from the lake. I won't call the police for you!"
As a slightly panicked voice came from the phone, Xu Zhijian stopped one foot above the water.
He chuckled, his face filled with the pleasure of success.
Sure enough, live here.
His goal was achieved and he wanted to retract his feet, but the next second, Wuqing's mind suddenly became confused, he lost his balance and fell sideways.
"Plop——"
The figure disappeared from sight in an instant.
On the balcony, Wen Nian suddenly grabbed the railing, his face full of astonishment, and saw the splashing water clearly.
He really jumped!
Her mind went blank for a moment.
After coming to my senses, I immediately called 119.
Without a second thought, she hurriedly put on her clothes and went downstairs, quickly messaging: "Hello! Someone jumped into Qiutang Lake in Qingtan Community..."
After explaining everything, Wen Nian hurriedly got off the elevator and headed straight for Qiutang Lake.
Xu Zhijian is a psychopath!
Seeing her anxious look, passers-by made way for her.
At this moment, Wen Nian's heart seemed to be wrapped in a ball of fire. Instinctively, relying on the only thought in his mind, he tried his best to speed up his pace.
As the sob came over me, a sour feeling came over my nose. I couldn't tell whether it was anger or worry.
The sirens were getting closer.
About five minutes later, when she arrived, there was already a crowd of people and cars gathered on the roadside.
"Excuse me!" She squeezed through the crowd and rushed to the front as fast as she could.
After seeing the wet figure sitting on the ground, he suddenly stopped.
Because she ran too fast, which was completely beyond her daily exercise, her throat was now filled with the smell of blood and she could only gasp for air.
However, at first, she didn't notice anything at all. She just stared at Xu Zhijian, making sure he was okay every second.
For a moment, she wanted to rush over and hug him.
This almost subconscious thought was quickly dismissed by her.
Finally I breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Nian bent down, holding his legs to calm his breathing.
“Pah—”
Suddenly, something dripped onto the back of my hand, and it felt slightly warm.
She raised her hand blankly and gently touched her eyes, only to find that they were already wet.
The next moment, a faint smile appeared on his lips, weak and sarcastic.
So spineless.
In the crowded crowd, the shadows cast by the street lamps obscured the girl's bitter face.
In the middle of the crowd, a firefighter gripped Xu Zhijian's shoulder and gently coaxed him, "Child, listen to my advice. There's nothing in this world that you can't overcome. If you have any difficulties, tell me and I'll definitely help you solve them. Don't ever commit suicide!"
"Ah?" Xu Zhijian rubbed his ankle and said weakly, "Oh, no, I just had a cramp and fell accidentally. It's okay. Thank you for your hard get off work. It's time to leave work."
He was soaking wet, his hair dripping with water, looking like a completely soaked rat. Fortunately, he was wearing black clothes to avoid exposing himself, and it was summer, so he didn't get too cold.
The other party was obviously unconvinced and said solemnly, "Life is truly precious! There are many things around you worth cherishing. As long as you calm down and observe, you will definitely discover them! So, can you give yourself some time--"
"I'm really fine." Suddenly catching a glimpse of the girl's back as she left in the distance, Xu Zhijian's heart moved. He hurriedly interrupted him, stood up and was about to chase her, but was pulled back before he had taken two steps.
"If we hadn't happened to pass by today, do you know what you would have become now?"
Xu Zhijian looked annoyed: "Hey, I know, if you guys don't leave, I can go anyway."
"no!"
"Do you know that drinking is harmful to your health? Even though you're not drunk..."
With his arm being pulled tightly, Xu Zhijian sighed and watched Wen Nian walk away.
Finally, it had no choice but to compromise and listened silently to the firefighters brainwashing it, giving a perfunctory response from time to time.
It was only later that I realized they were live streaming the entire process.
…
He seriously suspected that they knew him and did all this just to expose his negative information and gain some traffic.
After all, he has been bullied since he was a child.
But after thinking about it, I realized that being able to spread safety education knowledge to everyone in this way is also a great achievement.
Things have come to this point, and at the end of the live broadcast, he even made a special oath in cooperation with them.
At the same time, in the villa, Xu Xiaoyu, who was lying on the sofa watching the live broadcast, suddenly widened her eyes.
!
In disbelief, he brought the tablet closer.
What did she see? A man who looked familiar...
I was stunned for two seconds.
After realizing something, I quickly switched to WeChat: [Mom! My brother jumped into the river!]
—
After all this trouble, Wen Nian's work was naturally not completed.
He confessed his guilt to Jiang Tan.
She lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, lost in thought while waiting for news.
As for what he was thinking, Wen Nian himself was not sure. Many fragmented images flashed through his mind, but he could not grasp any of them.
The ding of the phone brought me back to consciousness.
She touched it and hung it over the page, reading it word by word.
Jiang Tan: [It's okay. Xu Zhijian already explained to me that there was an accident and the responsibility lies with him. It has nothing to do with you. I'll talk to the review department. You can make up for it tomorrow and it will be fine.]
Wen Nian blinked twice, not expecting this result.
Xu Zhijian...
She snorted, thinking that he had a conscience.
But if you think about it carefully, it is indeed his fault.
She turned over and replied: [Okay, got it!]
Only then did I cover myself with the quilt, turn off the lights, and lie down to sleep.
The room darkened.
Once you close your eyes, your consciousness becomes much clearer and it is easy to lose control of your random thoughts.
After a while, an indescribable irritation gradually surged in my heart.
Wen Nian suddenly opened his eyes.
Why was she so worried about Xu Zhijian just now?
It was obvious that she had almost forgotten him before she met him again, and sometimes she would not think of his name for several days.
I thought she no longer cared about him.
But when he was in danger, she rushed over without thinking, as if on instinct.
If it were any other acquaintance, I would definitely be nervous, but I shouldn't be so nervous. At that moment, it felt like the world was ending and my life was about to come to an end.
My body was shaking, my heart was beating violently, and even tears were flowing uncontrollably.
Obviously, this is not a good sign.
Until now, whenever she thought of the past, it was as if a very bitter pill had dissolved in her heart, penetrating her heart and spleen.
She felt like she was trapped in a cage and powerless, which made her feel suffocated.
It's very uncomfortable.
As she thought about it, she suddenly felt annoyed again.
Whether happy or sad, she didn't want to recall the past. But why was it that whenever she ran into him, even the most elaborate plans would be ruined?
How annoying! How annoying!
She picked up the doll in her arms and punched it twice.
Sometimes I really want to press a cleansing device on my brain to erase all unwanted memories.
Undoubtedly, Wen Nian couldn't sleep that night.
I didn't fall asleep until the early morning.
Unable to bear it any longer, she finally found a reasonable explanation to numb her active brain.
Xu Zhijian actually came to deliver documents to her, which is why he got drunk and fell into the lake. Most of this incident was her fault, so perhaps it was normal to worry too much.
Yes, it's normal, normal.
I repeated this sentence silently over and over again and finally fell asleep.
The next morning, Wen Nian entered the studio on time with dark circles under his eyes.
Xu Zhijian didn't come.
Colleagues are enthusiastically discussing today's news headlines -
Shocking! The first thing Young Master Xu did upon returning to Beijing was to jump into the river!
