Chapter 47 She refused three times
"I also want to ask, what exactly is my relationship with her?" Xie Yanning asked in return.
“I saw you two hugging, I saw how deep your feelings were for each other,” Su Wanwan said, recalling her past grievances, and her nose started to sting.
"Xie Yanning, how heartless you are! You know I like you, yet you still say things like we'll freeload off each other's meals, which will only lead to misunderstandings," her eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face.
"Do you expect me to watch you two being all lovey-dovey from now on? Have you never cared about me, or do you just think of me now as a way to pass the time when you're bored?"
Xie Yanning released Su Wanwan and chuckled softly in disbelief.
"So, all along, in your eyes, I've been this kind of person—two-timing, fickle, a modern-day Chen Shimei?"
Su Wanwan looked at him without saying a word.
“Zhang Yunqing and I have never been together. I don’t know why you have this misconception.”
"I saw you two hugging."
When did you see it?
"The day the results are released."
Xie Yanning laughed bitterly as she recalled that day, "So that's why you left back then?"
Su Wanwan remained silent.
I can't say all of them, but I can say most of them.
His grandfather suddenly fell ill and went to the port city for recuperation.
Her grandfather doted on her the most, and she changed her college application in a split second.
When I returned to the port city, I accidentally lost my phone again, along with the SIM card I used to contact my classmates.
At the time, it wasn't convenient to replace the card. Whether you call it escapism or resentment, Su Wanwan cut off all contact with everyone from then on.
“At that time, Zhang Yunqing confessed her feelings to me, but I rejected her, saying that I had someone else in my heart. Then she asked if I could give her a hug to end this unrequited love.”
"That's all you saw at the time."
“Su Wanwan, for so many years, you have treated me as such a despicable person. You didn’t even ask me before sentencing me to death. It’s really…” Xie Yanning paused for a moment, “I have only myself to blame from beginning to end.”
It's not even as good as an answer from someone she doesn't like at all.
Xie Yanning felt a sense of absurdity and ridiculousness.
Su Wanwan stood there, her mind blank. "But..."
But Zhang Yunqing clearly admitted it back then, and even told her to be mindful of boundaries, saying that she originally planned to tell her the truth, but now that she had stumbled upon it, it was better, saving her the trouble of explaining to her again.
"I'm sorry to bother you." Xie Yanning composed herself. "It's hard to say who's right and who's wrong. I apologize if this has caused you any trouble."
Su Wanwan: "..."
She wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say.
Whether she liked him too, or whether she was misled by Zhang Yunqing, she seemed to realize she had no right to say such things.
Even if Zhang Yunqing misled her again, the final result was still her own choice.
"It's late, let's go back," Xie Yanning said.
Su Wanwan could only watch helplessly as Xie Yanning left.
She didn't know how she climbed the stairs. When she got back upstairs and opened her phone, her chat with Xie Yanning was still stuck on the last payment information.
Above were the two photos he sent her, which she even made Xie Yanning delete in front of her.
She then explained why Xie Yanning remained silent at the time.
Suddenly, as if she had just thought of something, Su Wanwan frantically scrolled back to Xie Yanning's post on WeChat Moments.
On the day she left the University of Hong Kong to study abroad, Xie Yanning only sent a ".".
She suddenly understood what Xie Yanning meant at the time.
This signifies the end.
She clearly saw him, but in the end, she chose to turn around and leave without even saying hello. If she had just given him ten minutes, perhaps their ending would have been different.
In Xie Yanning's eyes, it was as if she had no affection for him whatsoever, and it was yet another rejection of him.
Was Xie Yanning drunk that day because he saw the airplane in the sky and thought of her turning away that time? That's why he asked her not to leave again.
Su Wanwan, holding her phone, suddenly burst into tears.
On the day her parents left by plane, those words were yet another rejection for Xie Yanning.
She rejected Xie Yanning three times.
Su Wanwan lay in bed unable to sleep, and in a self-destructive manner, she scrolled through Xie Yanning's Moments again, only to find it completely blank, with just a horizontal line remaining.
The horizontal line, like an insurmountable chasm, severed all their past.
Su Wanwan pouted; Xie Yanning really didn't intend to want her anymore.
The next day, Su Wanwan still got up on time.
There's no way around it; working stiffs don't even have the right to slack off and lie around at home.
Looking in the mirror, my eyes looked a little swollen.
Su Wanwan applied ice to her eyes and then gulped down a cup of pure black coffee, which at least made her feel a little better.
When they arrived at the hospital, Nan Sisi saw her and asked in surprise, "What did you do last night?"
"I rewatched the movie 'Mom, Love Me Again' last night," Su Wanwan said, her voice slightly hoarse.
Nan Sisi nodded. This old movie was indeed quite touching; she cried like a fool when she watched it at a young age.
"Oh, I see. I thought you were heartbroken."
Su Wanwan felt even more miserable.
She and Xie Yanning never dated.
Near the end of the workday, Chen Yan said that Huazhong University of Science and Technology was going to hold an autumn sports meet and needed professional medical staff to be present. "Who wants to sign up?"
Nowadays, students are very precious and pay extra attention to safety.
This sport is competitive, so if something really happens, it's easier to get timely medical attention.
Su Wanwan: "Me!"
The voice was strong and powerful, which startled Chen Yanlai.
Strictly speaking, this is hardly a good job. It would be best if nothing went wrong, but if something did, the parents would not only tear the school to shreds, but also the medical staff present.
Furthermore, this is counted within the rest time, making the already limited rest time even more precious.
"Who else wants to sign up?" Chen Yanlai asked.
The other seasoned veterans in the department looked at each other, none of them actually glancing at Chen Yanlai.
"Then I'll sign up too." In the end, Nan Sisi was the most loyal.
The sports meet will be held for three consecutive days, starting next Monday.
Holding the notice copied from the school, Su Wanwan found an excuse to send Xie Yanning a WeChat message.
Su Wanwan: The hospital is sending me to your school's sports meet next week. I'd like to ask you some questions, is that alright?
As she clicked send, Su Wanwan's heart pounded with anxiety. What if, what if she got blocked?
Fortunately, it can still be sent.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
There is still hope.
But after waiting for a few minutes, there was still no reply.
Are they still in class?
No, university classes don't run overtime; the cafeterias are almost closing at this hour.
While she was still waiting, the emergency call bell rang.
Su Wanwan sighed, immediately put away her phone, and rushed to the ward.
When she had time to take out her phone again, it showed that she had received a message.
She opened it quickly.
Xie Yanning: 13XXXXXXX, Teacher Yang, this is the phone number of our school sports meet contact person.
"..."
