"These past few years have been quite complicated. I thought my youth was carefree, and there was a time when I scoffed at love. I remember a friend of mine broke up with his girlfriend and came to me for drinks, crying his eyes out. I laughed at him for being pathetic. But now it's my turn to be pathetic."
"Time flies. If I saw myself like this now, I would probably laugh at myself for being so useless. But these few days with you have been the happiest days of my life in recent years. I have been living in a dilemma, afraid to move forward and unwilling to back down. Life should not be stagnant, so I came to find you."
"My mind is a mess, really a mess. I like you, that's it, this is my youth, I accept it. There's so much I want to say, my mind is a jumbled mess, that's all I'll say, you should board the plane now." Zhang Fengxia took a deep breath and looked at Lu Feng.
Lu Feng understood how she felt, but didn't know how to comfort her. He reached out and hugged her, patting her back as he said, "I like you too. Remember to call me when you get there."
"Okay, I'll call you. Hurry up and board the plane. I'll book a ticket for tomorrow," Zhang Fengxia urged.
Lu Feng picked up his bag, glanced at Zhang Fengxia, turned around and left. After passing through the ticket gate and boarding the shuttle bus, Zhang Fengxia stood there looking through the airport's floor-to-ceiling windows at the shuttle bus getting further and further away. Tears blurred her vision, and she choked out, "Goodbye. From now on, you won't be in my life. I'll try my best to be okay. And I won't be in your life either. It's okay. Xiaoyan is doing well..."
She walked out crying. In Zhang Fengxia's heart, she felt that she had decisively severed all ties with them. She wanted to go back to the past, to when she was so independent and strong.
Choosing to see him was just to give herself some closure. Perhaps it was an excuse, but she had to do it now, not wanting to get caught up in the whirlpool of this relationship again.
Outside the airport, she stood there watching plane after plane soar into the sky, never looking back. Zhang Fengxia watched, her eyes occasionally glancing towards the exit, even wondering if he hadn't left, if he had already guessed her resolute decision. If he appeared now, she would have an excuse to overturn everything.
Unfortunately, he didn't appear; he had already flown away.
Back at the hotel, the receptionist greeted her as usual, but seemed a little surprised. The girl, who had been staying there for over ten days, had been all smiles and skipping around like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, but today she looked dejected.
Zhang Fengxia locked herself in the hotel room, staring blankly at the sunset outside the window. The empty room was like a spring, gushing out all the emptiness in her heart and filling the entire room.
"Ding-dong"
The doorbell rang, its sound unusually jarring in the quiet room. Zhang Fengxia seemed startled, jumping up from the sofa. Opening the door, she saw a waiter pushing a small cart, smiling and saying, "Hello, today is the 15th, our hotel's fifth anniversary. We've brought you dinner, tea, and souvenirs."
"Just leave it there!"
The waiter placed the items on the table, and Zhang Fengxia sat down, looking at the sign in front of her that read July 15th.
"The 15th? Today's the 15th already?" She suddenly realized something, sitting there somewhat incredulous, a hint of doubt in her mind: "Isn't that unlikely? It can't be, can it?"
Without even having time to eat the tea and snacks, Zhang Fengxia hurriedly went downstairs and found the front desk.
Hello, how can I help you?
"I'd like to ask, do you sell pregnancy tests here? Where are they?" Zhang Fengxia asked.
"A pregnancy test?" The receptionist was stunned and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean."
A slightly older receptionist came over and said, "I know she's young, but she needs to go to the hospital to buy it. If it's inconvenient for you, we can buy it for you."
