Chapter 300 I've Always Known
Dongfang's mouth was about to be twisted with anger, but Jiang Yize continued to speak slowly with a calm face.
"Dongfang, this is not a question of sympathy, this is a question of principle. No matter who made the pancake roll, wasting food is shameful. You are an adult, I don't think I need to preach to you!"
Wasting food is one thing, who made the pancake roll? It's another matter. How can Dongfang mix these two things together? Women, once they lose themselves, are really rude animals.
How can Dongfang understand the deep meaning of Jiang Yize's words at this moment? She looked at the pancake rolls she had thrown away in the plate with a vicious look, and then looked at the calm Jiang Yize and said with gritted teeth.
"Come on, why are you pretending to have a sense of social morality? It's just that these pancake rolls were made by that country woman, and you can't bear to see her work being wasted by others. Do you love that country woman so much that you are so partial to her that you don't care about our friendship for many years?"
She said it with a sanctimonious look, but in her heart she was still partial to Qin Sisi. If these pancake rolls were not made by Qin Sisi, maybe Jiang Qize would not even give a look if she put these exquisite rolls under her feet, right?
As soon as Dongfang finished speaking, the temperature in the restaurant suddenly dropped. Jiang Yize exuded a chill. He stared at his long-time classmate and colleague, unable to conceal the disappointment in his eyes. He spoke expressionlessly.
"Dongfang, you've crossed the line!"
No matter who made the pancake roll, Dongfang's behavior today had obviously touched his bottom line. This was his home. The place where Dongfang was standing now was the restaurant that he and Qin Sisi shared. This woman appeared in his and Qin Sisi's shared home for no reason, not only ate the breakfast Qin Sisi made for him, but also took a bite or two and threw it on the plate with disdain, and kept talking nonsense.
What do you mean the pancake rolls are made by a country woman? That country woman is his wife on the marriage certificate, his own woman, he can bully her, and he won't tolerate outsiders insulting Qin Sisi in front of him.
The mist in Dongfang's eyes quickly gathered together, and drops of tears fell from the corners of her eyes. She looked pitiful, and she said angrily.
"Am I right? Before you married that country woman, we got along very well. I always thought... we could go on forever, but who could have thought that this country woman would appear, and you married her at lightning speed. After marrying her, your entire personality and character almost changed. Jiang Yize, what's wrong with you? What kind of medicine did Qin Sisi give you?"
Jiang Yize was so unrecognizable that she almost didn't recognize him.
Jiang Yize didn't expect Dongfang to shed tears in front of him, revealing a pitiful and weak look. There was no trace of emotion in the man's eyes, let alone any sympathy for women.
Then, Jiang Yize turned his eyes away and sighed slowly.
"Dongfang, you talked too much today!"
Dongfang retorted with tears in her eyes.
"Jiang Yize, do you dare to say that what I said is not true? After you married Qin Sisi, that country woman, I'm afraid you know that you are no longer the same as before!" Jiang Yize
did not speak, but remained silent.
Some things, he has not said, but it does not mean that he does not know. For so many years, he did not want to point it out, nor did he want to say it out, but just wanted to leave the last dignity for Dongfang.
So that Dongfang would retreat and save her last face, but what about Dongfang? She has been squeezing his life again and again, and now, she said such words to his face. It seems that it is time to cut the
Gordian knot. Thinking of this, Jiang Yize turned his head and looked at Dongfang, who was crying, and spoke in a tone without warmth.
"Dongfang, that's enough, stop crying, your tears are worthless to me. For so many years, there are some things I didn't tell you, don't think I don't know, I just want to save your face, but who would have thought that you would tear off the fig leaf of our friendship again and again, so I have no choice but to tell the truth."
Dongfang, who was originally crying, stopped crying after hearing Jiang Yize's words, raised her head and looked at Jiang Yize in astonishment.
He had known Jiang Yize for many years, and this man had always been gentle and courteous, and had never spoken to her in such a stern tone.
Moreover, from the tone of this man, it seemed that what he was going to say next was the last thing she wanted to hear in her life.
Thinking of this, Dongfang felt a little flustered for no reason. She quickly wiped her eyes with her hands and was about to speak to stop Jiang Yize from saying the next words. If
Jiang Yize didn't say some things and she didn't expose their relationship, they could still get along as before and be good classmates and colleagues. However, once this relationship was exposed, it would be impossible to be friends in the future.
Especially for a cold-hearted man like Jiang Yize, once he made up his mind, he and she would not even have the last friendship.
Thinking of this, Dongfang quickly stretched out her hand to stop Jiang Yize from saying the next words, but it was too late.
Jiang Yize opened his thin lips and spoke in a cold voice. Those words that Dongfang thought were cruel and desperate came out of his mouth.
"Dongfang, we have been classmates and colleagues for so many years. How could I not see your little thoughts? It's just that I never pointed it out and didn't give you a chance to express it. It's not because I like you, nor do I want to play hard to get and keep you on suspense. It's because I want to give you the last dignity, let you realize that you and I can never be lovers, let you give up on your own initiative, so that everything will be complete... the last dignity."
He is a steely straight man. Yes, he is slow to react in terms of feelings, but he has always known Dongfang's kindness and love for him, but... he just didn't want to respond.
Unexpectedly, his non-response aroused Dongfang's fighting spirit, and now, they all wanted to interfere in his life.
At this point, Jiang Yize looked at Dongfang coldly. There was no mercy or warmth in his eyes, just a hint of... pity.
What exactly was a pity? Dongfang's brain was a mess at this moment. He couldn't figure out what Jiang Yize's eyes meant, and he didn't have time to investigate.
Dongfang's heart was gray at this moment, like a person who fell into the sea and was about to drown. He couldn't grab anything to survive, and the whole world began to collapse.
