(407)
Zhang Susu clapped her hands and laughed, "So beautiful! Just like a rich heiress."
Uncle Cai said smugly, "She'll definitely be a rich heiress in the future!" His tone was full of confidence. The implication was that marrying into their family would be like being reborn as a wealthy heiress.
Aunt Cai happily said, "You see, I have good taste, don't I? When we get married, I want to dress my daughter-in-law in gold bracelets, just like when people in Fujian do."
Zhang Susu laughed heartily.
Ye Wenyu's face and neck were flushed red, and her body felt like it was being pricked with needles; she was in immense pain.
Amidst cheerful laughter, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Cai Wenchuan's previously dim eyes regained hope and a smile.
Aunt Cai and Uncle Cai were even happier, as if everything was a done deal.
Ye Wenyu felt terrible. She simply couldn't bear Cai Wenchuan sitting next to her. It was like having a fly shoved into her mouth.
The more attentive he was to her, the more disgusted she felt. So she stood up, made an excuse to go to the restroom, and hurriedly left the private room.
The moment the door to the private room closed, I heard Uncle Cai say to Zhang Susu, "Susu, we'll hold a wedding for Xiaoyu after she graduates from university. She's a junior now, and there's only one year left."
Zhang Susu said with great joy, "Okay, okay, I have no objection!"
Ye Wenyu felt as if a spoonful of hot oil had been poured into her ear, and she ran forward hastily as if fleeing.
Because the hotel was crowded with people, and she was worried that Aunt Cai and Uncle Cai would see her standing in the corridor as they came out of their private room, she had no choice but to go to the bathroom, even though she didn't want to.
I walked heavily into the women's restroom, and looking in the mirror, tears welled up in my eyes from anger and sadness.
His face was wet, as if he had just walked out of a storm.
The two gold bracelets on her wrists were heavy and dazzling, but in Ye Wenyu's eyes, they were like handcuffs that brought her humiliation.
Her heart felt heavy, as if it were filled with lead.
She stood leaning against the bathroom sink, her heart filled with anger. How could Cai Wenchuan do this? Why did he let things escalate without doing anything? What was he thinking? Why did he seem like a completely different person after a year? They had clearly broken up, their relationship was that of ex-boyfriend and ex-girlfriend, so why was he now acting like he was deeply in love with her?
Today, she is an outsider in the Cai family. As a junior, it's not appropriate for him to publicly turn hostile, but he should know about her displeasure! Her mother, Zhang Susu, doesn't know that they were once in love, and neither do Cai's uncle and aunt, but Cai Wenchuan does! Why has things developed to this point, yet he says nothing, does nothing, and doesn't explain to his parents, making things so difficult for her?
Is this still a responsible man?
Ye Wenyu's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face like a broken string of pearls. Suddenly, she saw her reflection in the mirror—a face contorted with rage, teeth clenched, and streaked with tears—it was terrifying. She immediately lowered her head and turned away. There were tissues in the five-star hotel bathroom; she grabbed one and covered her tear-soaked face.
She thought to herself that she originally had no resentment towards Cai Wenchuan. Although her heart ached when she thought of the past, and although she longed for someone to love her because of her lonely life, she had always faced his change of heart and breakup with a calm mind.
As a book says, "We don't know how much snow falls in each person's life, but we do know that everyone lives a lonely winter in their own life!" Therefore, in her life, in the lonely winter, she silently endured everything.
Why didn't she contact Cai Wenchuan, but he bothered her again after returning to China?
Her life has already been so difficult, why won't he let her go?
If you don't love someone, why do you keep appearing in her life, bringing yourself and your family, constantly causing trouble, reminding her of the past, and making her upset?
Thinking of this, tears streamed silently down Ye Wenyu's face like a small river. At that moment, a tall, muscular man walked out of the men's restroom. Ye Wenyu hadn't expected anyone to come out at this time, so she immediately lowered her head, quickly covered her face with her hands, and turned her body to the side, turning her back to the man.
A familiar voice rang out: "What are you doing here?"
Lin Tingfeng?!
Ye Wenyu was terrified, as if she had seen a ghost in broad daylight! Her body trembled with shock, and she still covered her face tightly with her hands, determined not to let Lin Tingfeng see her tears.
However, she forgot about the two large gold bracelets on her hands!
Lin Tingfeng saw it and a playful smile appeared on his face. He glanced at her brand-new, gleaming gold bracelets, crossed his arms, took a step back, and said slowly to her, "Oh, what big gold bracelets! Are they real? If I put them in water, will the color fade? Will they float?" His tone was full of sarcasm.
Ye Wenyu then remembered the handcuffs on her hands, immediately removed them from her face, and put them behind her back.
Thus, a tearful face, like a pear blossom in the rain, appeared before Lin Tingfeng.
Such a short-sighted behavior quickly caught Lin Tingfeng's attention to Ye Wenyu's tears. Her face was streaked with tears, like a crumpled sheet of paper, making her look pitiful.
Lin Tingfeng was stunned, momentarily lost in thought, and began to worry about her. He seemed to have never seen her cry before, even though he knew she had always been a girl with a hard life. At eighteen, while others were still being pampered in their parents' arms, she had to finish her studies while working hard to support herself. But no matter how hard or tiring it was, she never shed a tear.
She's always been so strong, optimistic, and positive! What happened to her today? Who made her cry?
A fog rose in his heart, and he took another step forward, looking at her with concern, and asked her softly, "Why are you crying? What happened?" His voice was warm, like the gentle winter sun.
Ye Wenyu blushed, her heart warmed, and she wanted to cover her face with her hands, but then she remembered the large bracelet on her wrist and had to give up. She lowered her head, turned her body to the side, and turned her face away to avoid Lin Tingfeng seeing her tears.
She planned to escape the bathroom quickly.
This is truly embarrassing!
Lin Tingfeng is like a persistent ghost! She runs into him anytime, anywhere, and today is the most humiliating day of her life! Damn it! She didn't cry as much as she did today when Cai Wenchuan broke up with her, because she's never felt so humiliated!
Cai Wenchuan, you're a bastard! Am I not a person? Am I a toy? Can I be summoned and dismissed at will?
