"Just because...I'm his girlfriend now!" Chang Yue said.
Lin Mengxi sneered, flicked her hair in front of her eyes, and instantly raised a hand. Chang Yue saw her move and raised her hand as well. I was startled and quickly stepped out to block them.
Snap…
Dong….
Two slaps.
Lin Mengxi hit me in the face..
Chang Yue hit me on the back of the head..
I was already feeling angry... and now I was even angrier. I couldn't help but yell, "Can you please calm down? Can't you just talk it out nicely? If you can't talk it out nicely, then get out! Or I can get out too." I looked back and forth between the two of them... I felt helpless and angry. This sudden situation gave me a headache.
Chang Yue and Lin Mengxi were stunned by my yell. The anger on their faces had not completely disappeared... but they also stopped temporarily.
Lin Mengxi was the first to come back to her senses... She bit her lip, her eyes slightly red, and her eyes were full of grievance when she looked at me... She said softly: "I'll go back first..." After that, she looked at Chang Yue deeply, turned around and left... Her steps were hurried, and she soon disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Chang Yue looked at Lin Mengxi's departing back with a complicated expression... She turned her head and looked at me, her lips moved, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't open her mouth in the end... After a moment of silence, she sighed softly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Lin Yu... Let's calm down about what happened today." After that, she turned around, slowly walked out the door, and gently closed the door.
The room suddenly became quiet, leaving me standing there alone... Everything that had just happened kept replaying in my mind like a movie clip, and I felt tired and confused... These were two women who were very important to me, and I was powerless to stop them.
I walked over to the sofa and slumped down. I put my hands deep into my hair, not knowing how to face all this.
"What the hell...what is going on!" I couldn't help but curse, my heart was filled with annoyance like a tangled mess...I couldn't figure it out.
…
After a while... my stomach was growling with hunger, but I was also feeling very upset... I really had no appetite... I just sat on the sofa in a daze and fell asleep without realizing it.
I don't know how much time passed before I was awakened by the aroma of rice. I slowly opened my eyes and looked over... Zhu Wei and Xia Jie were sitting there leisurely eating rice bowls. The food looked quite delicious.
I rubbed my sleepy eyes, reached for a cigarette on the coffee table, and tossed one to each of them. I lit one myself, took a deep breath, and forced myself to cheer up. "Hey, you two, how come you have time to come to my humble abode today?"
Zhu Wei glanced at me first, the corner of his mouth slightly raised. He said with a smile: "It is said that a 'battle' just happened here. We are worried about you... and came to see if you are injured."
Xia Jie also echoed from the side: "I told you that you would be fine, but this guy had to drag me over here."
"Where's Yang Bin?"
They both shook their heads and said in unison, "I didn't see him. I couldn't get through to him on the phone. I guess he's on a date."
Zhu Wei continued, "Xu Qian and I ran into Meng Xi by the lake at school. She was crying her eyes out. We asked her and found out what happened."
When I heard this, I became a little worried and asked hurriedly, "Isn't Lin Mengxi back yet?"
"We went back. Xu Qian and I sent her to the bus to Changsha. By the way, why did you call her? You don't really want to have the best of both worlds, do you?" Zhu Wei looked at me suspiciously.
I quickly shook my head...with a wry smile on my face, and then told Zhu Wei everything that had happened in the past few days...As for the speculations in my mind, I didn't say them out loud...after all, I didn't have much evidence, so I just vaguely said that I had called the wrong person, Mengxi.
After saying that, I sighed helplessly and took another deep puff of my cigarette.
After hearing this, Zhu Wei and Xia Jie frowned unconsciously and looked at each other.
After a while... Zhu Wei was the first to break the silence. He looked at me seriously and said, "How about you go work at my dad's company? I guarantee you'll be fine, and you don't have to go to Hangzhou... Just live a good life here with Chang Yue."
I felt conflicted and a look of hesitation appeared on my face.
I really don't want to go there. After all, I don't know what to do. If I don't do it well...not only will it embarrass Zhu Wei, but it will also make it difficult for him. I also don't want to cause trouble for them because of myself. Although his father seems to be quite capable, it is really not appropriate for an outsider like me to do it...
After thinking for a moment, I smiled frankly and said firmly, "No."
Zhu Wei heard me say this... he sighed helplessly, pointed to the rice on the table, and said, "Eat something first. I'll go explain to Chang Yue and ask her to forgive you."
I picked up my chopsticks and took a bite of rice. As I chewed, I said angrily, "Don't meddle with my own business. This isn't about whether she forgives me or not. I'm angry! Why did she go to see that guy and not tell me the truth?"
Xia Jie listened from the side and couldn't help but say, "Didn't you also meet Lin Mengxi?" He tilted his head slightly and looked at me with a smile.
When I heard that, I hurriedly said, "Don't give me that... I didn't ask her out at all. Heaven and earth are my witnesses... I've done nothing wrong, and I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on my door. I have a clear conscience."
Zhu Wei patted my shoulder and said seriously, "I believe you." Then he pointed at Xia Jie and continued, "He believes you too, but will Chang Yue believe you? In a relationship, one person always has to bow down first. It's not like you two are really cheating."
