Chapter 163 Generous Girlfriend VS Poor Boyfriend 19
Gu Xingyuan remained silent for the moment, unsure of what she had seen that would make her curse him like that.
He reached out to hug her, but she pushed him away.
"Don't touch me, you filthy thing!"
Gu Xingyuan frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Zhiyi pursed her lips and did not answer him.
Gu Xingyuan walked over and picked up the phone. He pressed the power button, and some parts of the screen were already distorted. He saw that it was stuck on the Alipay bill interface.
He seemed to remember something, "Don't misunderstand."
"Misunderstanding? What new excuse do you have this time? Don't you feel disgusted doing something like this?"
He frowned even more deeply and explained, "I went to see my mother and happened to run into her. She asked me to transfer the money for the groceries to her, that's all."
Jiang Zhiyi: "Do you think I would believe that?"
Gu Xingyuan emphasized, "If nothing really happened, then block her Alipay account now."
He handed her the phone.
Jiang Zhiyi slammed her phone to the ground, her voice tinged with anger: "Even if you delete me on WeChat, you can still interact on Alipay. What's the point of deleting me? There are so many apps you can use to contact me. Am I supposed to delete them all one by one? Will I even be able to delete them all?"
Gu Xingyuan said helplessly, "This is just a simple transfer, why are you so angry? Why are you always making such a fuss about it?"
"Yes, I'm the one who's making a big deal out of nothing. Today was just a normal money transfer, nothing happened. Even if you go to a hotel together tomorrow and sleep together, it won't matter at all."
"When you go to the hospital for prenatal checkups later, am I supposed to act like nothing happened? Will I have to take care of her during her postpartum period?"
Gu Xingyuan was exhausted after a long day, and his head was throbbing. He didn't want to argue with her right now.
He raised his voice and said, "Can you please stop being so unreasonable?"
The surroundings immediately fell silent.
Jiang Zhiyi just stood there, not saying anything more, her eyelashes occasionally fluttering.
Gu Xingyuan immediately regretted his words, a sense of unease slowly rising within him. He quickly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
He looked down at her face.
Jiang Zhiyi's eyes reddened and gradually became moist, with glistening tears welling up inside. Soon, one tear after another slid down her cheek.
She looked dejected and sat there quietly, appearing incredibly wronged and pitiful.
"I'm sorry, I...no..."
Gu Xingyuan was somewhat incoherent. He took out a tissue to help her wipe her tears, but the more he wiped, the more tears she shed.
Jiang Zhiyi pushed him away and said, "Whatever happens to you in the future has nothing to do with me."
...
A few days later.
Because the phone screen couldn't be repaired, Gu Xingyuan had no choice but to buy a new one.
He handed her the new phone and said, "I'm still using the old lock screen password. Now you can register a few more fingerprints."
He used to have a lot of her fingerprints on his phone. In her words, she wanted to be able to unlock his phone with any finger, which would be very convenient.
Jiang Zhiyi didn't even look at him. "No need."
Gu Xingyuan tried to take her hand, but she shook him off, and his phone fell onto the sofa.
Jiang Zhiyi said calmly, "I said I don't need it."
Gu Xingyuan picked up a new bag from the side and said, "I bought you a bag today, see if you like it."
"Thank you, but I don't need it. You can return it." Jiang Zhiyi only glanced at it.
"I've already bought it, so I can't return it," he said.
"Then you can leave it there," she replied casually.
Gu Xingyuan sat beside her, watching her intently, unsure of what to do.
Since that day, Jiang Zhiyi's attitude towards him has changed drastically. Unlike in the past when she would ignore him after they argued, this time it was quite different.
Jiang Zhiyi treated him like an unfamiliar friend, polite but distant.
She would respond to whatever he asked or did, but that was all; she never showed any further emotion towards him.
She wouldn't cling to him all day, wouldn't constantly ask for a hug or a kiss, wouldn't stop him from leaving for work, and wouldn't let him hold her while she slept...
She never checked his phone again, nor did she get angry with him, nor did she scold or hit him.
...
On the weekend, the two sat facing each other for a meal.
Jiang Zhiyi reached for the freshly squeezed juice on her right. Gu Xingyuan saw this and wanted to help her, but as soon as his left hand moved, she immediately pulled it back.
She looked at the phone on his left and said, "What's the rush? Is there something on your phone that you don't want anyone to see? I wasn't going to take it; I just wanted some juice."
Gu Xingyuan felt a pang of sadness in his heart and said in a low voice, "I'll pour it for you."
Jiang Zhiyi: "No need, I'm already full. You can eat slowly."
After saying that, she got up from the dining table and went straight into her room.
Gu Xingyuan glanced at the untouched food on the table, and then followed him inside.
Jiang Shiyi was choosing clothes in front of the wardrobe.
"Where are you going today?" he asked.
"I have an appointment with a friend, something's come up."
Gu Xingyuan's lips moved slightly as he asked, "What kind of friend? And when can you come back?"
Jiang Zhiyi: "I don't know."
...
Jiang Zhiyi still hadn't returned by 10 p.m.
Gu Xingyuan called her many times, but no one answered.
He continued making calls one by one.
"What's up?" The call finally went through.
"When are you coming back?" he asked.
He could hear a commotion on the other end, and a young man's voice was particularly clear, "Is this your boyfriend calling? Is he checking up on you?"
"No," she replied to the person.
Gu Xingyuan's hand tightened around his phone; he didn't know which question her denial corresponded to.
"You go to sleep first, I'm not coming back tonight." After saying that, she hung up the phone.
Gu Xingyuan dialed again, but no one answered.
At midnight, Jiang Zhiyi updated her WeChat Moments.
Make a wish upon the fireworks.
Then came a nine-grid photo: several pictures of fireworks, nighttime street scenes, a group photo of a group of people in a private room...
He noticed that in the group photo, she was standing in the very center, and a small banner hung on the wall behind the private room that read, "Welcome Jiang Yu back to China!"
He suddenly remembered that her ex-boyfriend also seemed to have this name.
Gu Xingyuan exited WeChat. He wanted to call her again, but as soon as he opened the dialer, he suddenly couldn't suppress his agitation and slammed his phone to the ground.
He sat in the living room all night.
