More and more conflicts frequently appeared between them, and there were many quarrels. But sometimes, after the quarrel, they would inexplicably become cold to each other for several months.
Even the deepest feelings cannot withstand this kind of torment.
Every time after a quarrel, she would go straight to filming and would be gone for several months at a time, leaving no room for communication.
The relationship between them depends entirely on mutual compromise.
He seemed to remember their breakup six months ago.
"us……"
In the restaurant, after the two of them had a quarrel, Mu Jingjue invited her to dinner, intending to properly handle their relationship. But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the woman opposite him.
"Brother Mu, I'm going abroad to film a movie. It will take about half a year. I heard that the signal there is not good. I may not be able to contact you at any time."
Si Yutong said happily that she had been looking forward to this drama for a long time. It was directed by her favorite director, and any drama directed by him would definitely be a masterpiece, so she decided to do it without thinking or discussing it.
After hearing the news, Mu Jingjue silently took two sips from the water glass beside the table.
Contact? Perhaps she simply forgot that she had a boyfriend? Whenever she was filming, she was completely absorbed and lost in thought. She would often disappear for two or three days. It would take months to reply to a message, let alone a phone call.
What's more, she seemed to have never thought about this relationship at all. There were conflicts a few days ago, but now, she acted as if nothing had happened. This made him feel somewhat helpless.
He felt that such a relationship was too tiring, as he always had to maintain it alone, preventing him from seeing her love for him and her emphasis on this relationship.
But it seems that it doesn't matter.
"When was it confirmed?" He swallowed the water in his throat and asked lightly.
She is always like this. She makes all the decisions without even telling anyone in advance. She always gives you a last-minute notification, just like now. She often only tells you when she is about to leave, or when she remembers it.
Maybe, in her heart, she didn't even have a number, he thought.
"It was decided half a month ago." The girl blurted out without thinking.
"Half a month ago?" Si Yutong still couldn't hear the emotion in his tone.
"Yes, yes." Si Yutong agreed immediately, with excitement about the upcoming filming between her brows.
"Half a month ago, and you're just telling me now?"
"Oh, didn't I just remember it?" Si Yutong pulled his hand and acted coquettishly.
It was only after her agent told her today that she would be going out tomorrow that she remembered to tell him.
Mu Jingjue avoided her hand and gently turned the water glass on the table.
He stared at the water in the cup for a long time and said softly, "Let's break up."
"Break up? What do you mean by break up? Stop it." Si Yutong thought he was joking and didn't take it seriously.
"I honestly think we're not suitable."
Si Yutong looked at his solemn expression, which didn't seem fake, and she also put away her previous carelessness.
"No, Brother Mu, is it really that serious? Didn't I just not tell you in time? Okay, I'll tell you in time next time, okay? Even in advance is fine?"
"Do you think I'm just having this problem?" Mu Jingjue stared at her and asked back
Si Yutong caught his gaze and felt a little guilty for a moment, "Isn't it?"
"Oh, you think so, right?" Mu Jingjue was helpless, but he didn't want to explain. If that was the case, why bother adding to other people's troubles?
Perhaps, it is better for them to separate. Otherwise, if they continue like this, they will torture each other sooner or later. They are not suitable for each other.
"No, Mu Jingjue, I'm just going abroad." Si Yutong's temper also flared up. She felt that he was being unreasonable. She always indulged him, so why couldn't he indulge herself?
She had always been the most pampered person at home, with no one saying anything to her. Wasn't he the same in the past? Why did he always fail to understand her over the years?
He's already successful in his career, so why can't I accept his decision to act in a movie? He just didn't tell me in advance, right? Why make such a fuss?
She also felt aggrieved. She was busy filming and had heavy workloads, but she always took time out to have a good meal with him and stay with him. Why couldn't he understand her?
He was a boss himself and knew how busy he was, so why did he always feel like he had so much free time? If he wasn't her boyfriend, she wouldn't have had the heart to eat with him.
Thinking of this, her temper flared up. Why would a man be so petty?
Upon hearing this, Mu Jingjue asked coldly, "Just going abroad? Is going abroad a matter between us?"
Si Yutong asked back: "Isn't it?"
"Forget it, I don't want to argue with you about this. Starting today, we'll separate. You'll be free. We can each get married and live happily ever after."
"Whether you're filming or doing anything else, you have the right to make your own decisions. You don't have to accommodate me."
Si Yutong said angrily: "Let's break up."
Why should she compromise? He's a grown man, why would he want to quarrel with her? It's really childish. Anyway, she doesn't want to spoil him now.
The atmosphere between the two was tense and neither of them would give in.
They were all proud people, accustomed to self-respect. There was no chance for them to back down now, not to mention that they were arguing, so they parted on bad terms.
The phone on the table suddenly rang, and Si Yutong picked up the phone to answer it.
"My dear lady, where are you? The director said we have to leave early and go to the airport now. Come quickly, don't dawdle."
"Got it, I'll be right there."
Si Yutong replied and hung up the phone. She said calm down, then said nothing more, without even looking at each other, and just stood up and left.
Mu Jingjue looked at the figure disappearing from the door and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that after he graduated from high school, all he saw was her departing figure.
She always has things more important than him, and she will never know what she is angry about.
She always thought that his anger subsided because she coaxed him, but in fact, she was convincing herself that they would eventually get married. However, as more and more such things happened, he felt more and more that she and he were not suitable.
Maybe she just felt that she was making a big deal out of nothing, but what she wanted was someone who was like-minded and on the same wavelength, not someone like her who would just run away without even saying hello. It happened once, and again and again, as if she had never been in her plan and was outside of it.
The cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang when he was lost in his memories.
His thoughts came to a halt, and he pulled his phone out of his pocket.
When he saw the contacts on the phone screen, he suddenly smiled warmly, and was completely different from the person he was just now.
He seemed to have his own concerns.
