Chen Zhe patiently recounted his story with Xu Weiwei once more.
Ever since he broke up with Xu Weiwei, he has been constantly bringing up her past to criticize her.
On the one hand, that experience was just too painful. If you repeat it a few times, you might get used to it, and once you get used to the pain, it might not be so painful anymore.
On the one hand, talking about feelings with people increases the distance between people, and he had a gut feeling that Tang Zihao in front of him was the person he was looking for.
The other person didn't look like an ordinary student; he had an air of nobility about him, came from the capital, and his surname was Tang.
Chen Zhe just looked up people with the surname Tang in Beijing, and what he found was quite surprising.
The other party's background may indeed be quite extraordinary.
Tang Zihao's mood improved considerably after hearing Chen Zhe's story.
They even comforted Chen Zhe.
"Brother Chen, you do sound worse off than me. You're also quite handsome, so why did your girlfriend cheat on you?"
Chen Zhe smiled bitterly. He hadn't understood before and once thought it was because of money, believing that Xu Weiwei disliked him for being poor.
However, he now feels that there may be more than one reason. The more important reason is that there is a problem with his relationship with Xu Weiwei.
"Brother Tang, I don't know if you've ever heard this saying? 'What you can't have always stirs your heart, and those who are favored are fearless.' Clearly, my ex-girlfriend, and the one you just mentioned, were both in a position of being favored, which is why they were so fearless towards us. When someone knows they are loved, it's very difficult for them to fall in love with that person."
Tang Zihao somewhat disagreed.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with two people loving each other. I love her, and she should love me even more."
"Ideals are beautiful, but reality is harsh. You love her, and many people can see that, but does she love you back?"
"this……"
Tang Zihao remained silent.
Chen Zhe's words struck a chord with him: Did Liu Yanran ever truly love him?
"Brother Tang, with your looks and financial situation, to be honest, you could have any woman you wanted. You could just wave your hand and a whole bunch of women would flock to you and follow you around. But would you even look at them?"
"I……"
Tang Zihao pondered Chen Zhe's question again.
"I don't think I'm really interested in those girls who rush over. Some of them are prettier than Yanran, but I still prefer Yanran in my heart."
Do you think this is being devoted in love?
Chen Zhe asked.
"Isn't this just being devoted in love?"
Tang Zihao countered with a question.
Chen Zhe shook his head; "I don't think this is infatuation. It's because you've invested too much in her. You've invested your feelings, your money, and your time. Your sunk costs are increasing little by little. When you finally sink, you can't accept that you've given so much and still ended up losing everything."
Tang Zihao was startled.
She stared at Chen Zhe with her eyes wide open.
Chen Zhe continued, “Brother Tang, I can tell you’re a smart man, and I don’t think you’re the kind of person who’s a sycophant. I don’t mean to offend you, but what I mean is that you’ve invested too much, and you can’t get it back. You can only keep investing because you don’t want to lose.”
Tang Zihao sighed and then drank another glass of wine.
Half a minute later.
He then spoke.
“I admit you have a point. That’s right. Actually, at first I wasn’t particularly in love with Yanran. We were just normal boyfriend and girlfriend. But later I fell deeper and deeper in love. I bought her a lot of things. Of course, I didn’t care about the money. I just felt that I was so good to her, so she should be good to me too. But she kept ignoring me, which made me more and more resentful. Why? Why does she have to treat me like this?”
“Brother Tang, I’m actually reluctant to advise you to think more positively. I’ve been through this kind of moment, and I know it’s hard to think positively. But if you want to understand why she gave up on you, I might be able to help you with that.”
How can you help me?
Tang Zihao asked.
Chen Zhe smiled; "The best way to make you feel better now is to make her regret it. You want her to regret it, right?"
Tang Zihao's lips moved slightly; he did indeed have this thought in his mind. He nodded.
"Is it possible?"
"Why not give it a try? How will you know if you don't try?"
"Okay! Then help me!"
...
After finishing their drinks at the restaurant, the two went to the graduation ceremony arm in arm.
After the graduation ceremony, the two hurriedly walked out.
At that moment, a girl suddenly called out to Chen Zhe.
Chen Zhe turned around and looked.
Somewhat surprised, she exclaimed, "Miss Zhang! What a coincidence!"
Zhang Xinrui laughed heartily.
"What a coincidence! I'm a student here too, have you forgotten?"
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I drank a bit too much just now."
Tang Zihao, who was standing next to him, was slightly stunned.
He pointed at the two of them; "Brother Chen, do you know Xinrui?"
Before Chen Zhe could even admit it, Zhang Xinrui chimed in, "Of course I know him, he's my savior! By the way, Zihao, how did you two meet?"
Zhang Xinrui and Tang Zihao have known each other since childhood. They grew up in the same circle and are naturally very familiar with each other.
Tang Zihao recounted what had just happened, feeling embarrassed.
Zhang Xinrui was both angry and curious after hearing this.
"How could Liu Yanran be like this? She's playing with people's feelings. I can't stand it anymore. I told you before that she wasn't a good woman, but you wouldn't listen to me."
Tang Zihao scratched his head bitterly; "I'm too deeply involved."
"You should have woken up a long time ago! By the way, you just said you wanted to make her regret it, can I come with you?"
"ah????"
Chen Zhe and Tang Zihao exchanged a glance, then looked at Zhang Xinrui, whose eyes were full of expectation.
"you……"
"What's wrong with me? I can pretend to be your girlfriend and make her regret it, isn't that the simplest thing to do?"
Zhang Xinrui straightened her chest and said.
The two glanced at Zhang Xinrui again, and indeed, Zhang Xinrui's appearance was impeccable.
She's a rich, beautiful, and successful woman; her circumstances are just right.
"Xinrui, are you really willing to help me?" Tang Zihao asked.
He had been attracted to Zhang Xinrui in his younger days, and when he heard that Zhang Xinrui was going to pretend to be his girlfriend, he became excited again.
When Chen Zhe saw his pleading look, he knew that Chen Zhe's simp tendencies had kicked in again.
He gave a somewhat speechless laugh.
Young people are so easily moved...
Zhang Xinrui laughed heartily and slapped Tang Zihao on the shoulder; "We're like family, of course I'm happy to help you with this little thing. Wait here, I'll go change my clothes and I'll be right there!"
"Okay, okay!!"
Tang Zihao nodded frantically.
Chen Zhe, standing to the side, really couldn't find anything to say.
[Given your situation, do you even need to make your ex-girlfriend regret it? It's obvious you like the one in front of you too; you're really trying to have your cake and eat it too. Sigh.]
...
Zhang Xinrui came out after changing her clothes. She was wearing a white short skirt that showed off her beautiful figure. She also had exquisite makeup on her face. She was already a natural beauty even without makeup, but when she dressed up, she looked just like a celebrity.
Many boys stared at her.
Chen Zhe himself couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Those long, beautiful legs were clad in white socks and white sneakers. It's true what they say, university life is great. You can see this kind of youthful energy all the time, which is hard to find in the real world.
Let's go!
Zhang Xinrui said, carrying a pink backpack.
Tang Zihao followed along eagerly, while Chen Zhe, with his hands in his pockets, also followed slowly.
They followed Liu Yanran and soon arrived at a restaurant.
As expected, Liu Yanran had made an appointment with someone. The man was dressed in a suit and had a somewhat worldly smile. He looked to be 10 years older than all of them.
After Liu Yanran met that person, the two hugged each other and then happily went to order food.
Tang Zihao clenched his fists tightly, gritting his teeth. He really wanted to rush up and question Liu Yanran about why she treated him this way.
But Chen Zhe stopped him.
"If you go up like this, she'll still ridicule you. Is that the result you want?"
"But I can't just stand by and watch her get intimate with that old man right under my nose, can I? I can't fucking stand it. Am I not as good as that old man?"
Zhang Xinrui, standing nearby, also spoke up for Tang Zihao, saying, "Yes, that old man is no match for you at all, Zihao. I really feel sorry for you. If you lose to someone who is not as good as you, you can only say you are unlucky. But I think that man is inferior to you in every way, whether it is his style of dress or his appearance and age. It is a disgrace for you to lose to him."
Tang Zihao's face turned completely red.
That's so damn embarrassing.
Especially after Zhang Xinrui said that, he felt that if he was outdone here today, he would never be able to hold his head up again.
Chen Zhe clearly saw through his thoughts. He quickly realized what was going on and asked with a smile, "Do you want to win a round?"
"Of course! Brother Chen, do you have a way?"
"Hehe, there are ways. I have several ways to help you beat that man and make your ex-girlfriend see the difference between you and him. I just don't know which method you want to choose?"
"Tell me all about it!"
Tang Zihao became interested, and Zhang Xinrui also looked at Chen Zhe with curiosity.
Chen Zhe said with a smile, "Look at that old man's sanctimonious appearance and the way he talks. The reason your ex-girlfriend was deceived by him is because she is inexperienced and hasn't been beaten down by society. To put it nicely, she may like mature men. Since you are always clinging to her, she will subconsciously think that you are immature and will compare you to him."
"What should I do? Do I have to grow up all at once?"
Tang Zihao asked.
"That's not very realistic. She already has a fixed impression of you. In her mind, you're just a lapdog, and it's hard for her to change that impression. The best way is to first make her a slave."
"Huh? You're going to hit someone???"
Tang Zihao asked Zhang Xinrui.
"This kind of hitting is not the same as that kind of hitting. Sometimes, hitting someone is not done with the hands, but with the mouth."
How can you hit someone with your mouth?
The two asked in unison.
"Of course you can fight. Hitting someone with your mouth is even more effective. Do you want to try it?"
How do we test it?
Chen Zhe: "We can do it like this..."
