Extra Chuci VS Tang Yutong 01
Ever since breaking up with Chu Ci, Tang Yutong has been like a wound-up spring, throwing herself into her work.
It seemed that only by burying herself in piles of documents and meetings could she temporarily forget that unforgettable past and the traces that person left in her life.
Colleagues in the studio soon noticed something was wrong with her - the Tang Yutong who once had a smile on her face was now just a tense shell.
Later, everyone found out that she and Chu Ci had broken up.
When the news came, everyone was surprised.
After all, not long ago, Chu Ci held an extremely romantic birthday party for Tang Yutong. The grand and thoughtful scene would make anyone envious.
How come we broke up in the blink of an eye?
But no one dared to ask Tang Yutong the reason, and no one even dared to mention the word "Chu Ci" in front of her.
She was busy without saying a word, like a tireless moth, constantly flying towards the flame called work.
After working overtime for a month, she finally fell ill.
The high fever wouldn't go away, so I had to stop all work and rest at home.
When people have free time, memories come flooding back like a tide.
Tang Yutong knew that she was really sick - not physically, but with the incurable lovesickness in her heart.
When she was lying on the hospital bed receiving an IV drip, she would always think of the days when Chu Ci was hospitalized.
Looking at the food and fruits brought by the assistant, she would subconsciously think of him holding the watermelon with a wronged look on his face, staring at her eating barbecue.
Thinking of this, the corners of her pale mouth would still unconsciously rise.
But the next second, she squeezed her palms tightly to force herself to wake up.
——I can’t think about him anymore.
They are over.
Tang Yutong's illness recurred and it took a week for her to recover.
Perhaps it was this illness that made her suddenly figure things out.
She found that because of Chu Ci, she was no longer the same person she used to be.
During this month, she no longer had any interest in appreciating handsome men, turned down all drinking parties, and even declined her friends' invitations to go to bars for a small gathering.
She lost her own rhythm of life and was left with only mechanical work.
Tang Yutong used to live a free and easy life, with a clear distinction between work and life, and she would never let work encroach on the time that belonged to her life.
Every weekend, she would always invite a few good friends to a bar with a relaxed atmosphere, have a few drinks and chat.
But since the breakup, she dared not go to any place she had been to with Chu Ci.
She was afraid that as long as she set foot in those familiar places, memories of him would flood back uncontrollably.
Tang Yutong secretly made up her mind: she must forget him and not let someone who has left affect her real life.
Because he is not worthy.
Since then, she has gradually returned to her previous pace of life.
The name Chu Ci seemed to have completely disappeared from her world.
The time I spent with him was as short as a dream.
Now that the dream is over, everything is back to normal.
The wind passes without leaving a trace, and my heart is as still as water.
Just when Tang Yutong thought she had finally erased Chu Ci from her memory, fate seemed to be deliberately playing a trick on her and pushed him back in front of her once again.
That night, she ran into Chu Ci in a place where she never thought they would meet again.
——Big Beard BBQ Restaurant.
Having just signed a new order, Tang Yutong was in a good mood and planned to treat herself to a good meal.
This store is far from where she lives, so she seldom comes here.
She never thought that a rich second-generation like Chu Ci would appear here again.
She still clearly remembered his undisguised expression of disgust when she first brought him here.
Later, she even thought that if it wasn't for helping Lu Yiran pursue Yanyan, if it wasn't for trying to please her, he would probably never set foot in such a place.
Sometimes she had to admit that Chu Ci's acting was so good that even she believed it.
But at this moment, Tang Yutong stood in a daze at the door of the barbecue restaurant, looking at the familiar figure, unable to move for a while.
Why is he here?
She stood behind him, unable to see his expression, but could only see him tilting his head back and chugging glass after glass of white wine.
Isn't he a bad drinker? What is he doing?
Just then, the proprietress noticed her and came over with a smile:
"Come in and sit down, your friend is here too."
Without waiting for Tang Yutong to respond, the proprietress continued to talk to herself:
"I just asked him why he didn't come, and he said he was busy. I didn't expect you to come after all—it's perfect. Go and talk him down. He's already had almost two glasses of white wine. If he drinks any more, I'm afraid he won't be able to get back home."
Three ounces? Drowning his sorrows in alcohol? Does he have his own worries?
As soon as this thought came to mind, Tang Yutong curled the corners of his mouth in self-mockery.
What kind of troubles could a man like him have? A broken heart? But what kind of girl could truly enter his heart?
Thinking of this, she felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.
Only a month after breaking up, he already has a new love? Sure enough, the playboy reputation is well-deserved.
She took a deep breath and whispered to the boss lady:
"Don't tell him I was here."
After saying that, she turned and left without any hesitation.
But the tears fell uncontrollably.
Tang Yutong, can you please stand up for yourself!
It was you who broke up with me in the beginning, and it’s still you who I can’t forget.
When has he ever really cared about you? Maybe he has already had several new lovers around him.
