withdrawal symptoms
Wen Lingyi stared at Zhou Jianxing's rejection message, the light from the screen stung her eyes.
What does Zhou Jianxing mean?
For a moment, she didn't even know how to reply to Zhou Jianxing's message.
Just because you realize that there is no so-called "relationship with a future" between you and her, you have to give up and withdraw decisively?
Wen Lingyi was so angry that she almost wanted to laugh, but there was an inexplicable pain in her heart.
She even wanted to call Zhou Jianxing to Lanyue Bay and confront him face to face about what was going on in his head. She was paying him well, wasn't she? Gardening wasn't easy, was she? Why did they just end it so suddenly?
But how could Wen Lingyi really confront Zhou Jianxing? That would be too cheap. However... she also has a vest -
"Seal the heart and lock the love."
·
After Zhou Jianxing returned home, she locked herself in her small bedroom. Today had been a terrible day. She was suddenly in debt of 120,000 yuan. She had never been in trouble since she started working, but who knew that this time she would be in such a big trouble.
What made her feel even more depressed than the huge compensation was Wen Lingyi's attitude in the cafe today.
The joy brought by the unexpected encounter was completely dampened by the other party's cold and distant eyes and natural neglect.
Could it be that everything that had happened before was a result of her being misled by the "sealed heart and locked love"? Did she mistakenly believe that Mrs. Wen was interested in her, when in fact she had no such intentions at all?
If that was true... then all her previous fantasies and desires were simply vulgar to the extreme.
She actually fantasized about doing that kind of thing with Mrs. Wen? !
The way Wen Lingyi looked at her and treated her today didn't seem like she was interested in her at all...
It turned out that it had always been her own one-man show, a one-man show that she directed and performed in her heart and indulged in herself.
Perhaps to Mrs. Wen, those burning eyes, those deliberate touches, those ambiguous approaches, and the above adjectives were all subjectively added by Zhou Jianxing. They were just her thoughts. Mrs. Wen did not have such thoughts at all. She was over-interpreting them.
Perhaps for Mrs. Wen, that kind of relationship between two women is normal.
Zhou Jianxing covered his heart and asked himself, why is it so painful to like someone?
She really should leave Mrs. Wen's life completely, because she could no longer simply treat her as her employer. She had improper thoughts about Mrs. Wen.
If this continues, she will be completely swallowed up in the abyss of unrequited love.
So, when Wen Lingyi sent her the message asking her to take care of the garden tomorrow morning, although she was reluctant and struggling inside, she still gritted her teeth and sent a polite reply.
Let it be, we won’t meet again in the future. Let her lick her wounds on her own and treat Mrs. Wen as a beautiful but short-lived passer-by in my life.
But after sending the message, she stared at the screen without blinking, expecting Wen Lingyi to strongly retain her, expecting Wen Lingyi to reject her refusal, even if it was just to ask "why".
However, after she sent that message, she never received any reply.
Yes, Zhou Jianxing is a dispensable person to Wen Lingyi, an insignificant maintenance worker and gardener who can be replaced at any time. Once the employment relationship ends, the other party is reluctant to say even a word to her.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jianxing's eyes became uncontrollably sour and hot again.
Just when she was being emo alone, the screen of her mobile phone suddenly lit up. It was the enthusiastic netizen "Feng Xin Suo Ai" who had not been in touch for a long time.
"Seal the heart and lock the love"! It's all her fault! Without her analysis and "study materials" that fueled the flames, how could she have fallen deeper and deeper into this self-righteous unrequited love, even delusionally believing that Mrs. Wen was also "hooking" her?
Now, Zhou Jianxing didn't even have the desire to click on the "Seal Heart, Lock Love" message.
But after a moment, a trace of guilt washed over her. After all, when she was most confused and needed someone to talk to, it was this stranger online who listened to her, helped her analyze her problems, even guided her, encouraged her, and selflessly shared "study materials" with her...
In reality, Zhou Jianxing knew she couldn't blame the netizens for all this. It all stemmed from her own restless heart, which had incited her to let her thoughts wander, leading her to concoct the illusion that Mrs. Wen was also "interested" in her.
Zhou Jianxing's cheeks instantly flushed at the thought of "study materials." She could no longer return to her innocent self, as pure as a blank sheet of paper. The knowledge had easily broken through her rational defenses, taking root in her mind and completely opening the door to a new world.
Cough cough, Zhou Jianxing shook his head as if trying to get rid of those charming thoughts.
Finally, I opened the chat dialog box with "Feng Xin Suo Ai", and the other party had already sent several messages in a row.
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "Sorry, little star, I was just about to reply to your message when I suddenly received a call. I just realized I forgot to reply to you."
Seal the heart and lock the love: "(＞人＜；)"
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "Are you angry?"
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "Sorry, sorry."
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "Xiao Xing Xing, how are things going with that person lately?"
Feng Xin Suo Ai still hasn't replied to the message "What I want is... a relationship with a future"
Xingxing: "It's okay, no need to apologize."
Xingxing: "I'm done with her."
Xingxing: "I'm just being sentimental"
Is it completely over? Is he just being too sentimental? Isn't Zhou Jianxing just too delusional?
He just ignored her for a few days, so why did Zhou Jianxing think she was being sentimental?
Wen Lingyi frowned, and began to reflect on herself. Was her seduction too subtle? Were her feelings for Zhou Jianxing not obvious enough? Was Zhou Jianxing really stupid, or was he just pretending to be stupid? Couldn't he sense her affection for him?
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "How come it's completely over?"
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "Sister, I can assure you with all my heart that the girl you're talking about is definitely interested in you. Think about what she did to you. Would you do that to a woman you're not interested in?"
Zhou Jianxing was stunned.
Would she do that? She didn't know.
Regardless of whether it was a man or a woman, she had never touched anyone else in the way that Mrs. Wen touched her. Although she had a good relationship with Chu Wei and often had physical contact, holding hands, hugging, etc., it seemed completely different from the touch Wen Lingyi gave her.
But she couldn't tell exactly what was different.
All she knew was that every time she came into contact with Mrs. Wen, her heart would beat irregularly and her whole body would tremble.
Was it the look? The temperature? The scent? Or was it simply because she harbored ill intentions towards Mrs. Wen, so she over-interpreted every look and gesture?
Just like those ordinary comments on the Internet, no matter what the other party does to him/her, it will be interpreted as that the other party is interested in him/her?
If I think this way, wouldn't I seem very vulgar?
Xingxing: "But, I met her today, and she was so cold to me."
Xingxing: "That's right, I'm just an insignificant person to her."
Star: "I can't go on like this"
Zhou Jianxing hesitated for a moment, but decided to confide her low-level work mistake to this "tree hole", hoping to use this to prove how much negative impact this "unrequited love" had on her.
Anyway, "Feng Xin Suo Ai" doesn't know her, so how could he know that the person who made that low-level mistake was Zhou Jianxing from Schindler Maintenance?
Xingxing: "5555... I recently received two work complaints, and the mistakes were very basic. My boss scolded me..."
Wen Lingyi raised her eyebrows slightly. No wonder the little fool looked unhappy. It turned out that she was scolded. What kind of ungrateful boss would be willing to scold her little star?
Xingxing: "That mistake was stupid... and fatal. The reason I made such a low-level mistake was because at that time, when I was working, I thought of her."
When Wen Lingyi heard Zhou Jianxing's words, she felt her breathing stop for a moment.
Thinking of her? It turned out that the little fool was really thinking of her. Wen Lingyi stared at the screen, almost laughing out loud.
Xingxing: "She hasn't contacted me since the last time we chatted until today. I miss her so much, I miss her all the time."
Xingxing: "I'm really bad. I shouldn't be thinking about her."
Seeing these words, the softest part of Wen Lingyi's heart was touched, but unfortunately her doting feelings could not be conveyed to Zhou Jianxing through the screen.
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "Little fool. How can you control yourself when you miss someone?"
Zhou Jianxing was stunned again. Why did "Seal the Heart and Lock the Love" also call her a fool? Was she really that stupid?
Xingxing: "It's not that you shouldn't think about it, but you shouldn't think about it all the time."
Thinking about him all the time? Wen Lingyi almost wanted to reach out to the other side of the screen and ruffle Zhou Jianxing's curly hair. She could almost imagine Zhou Jianxing blinking pitifully at the other end of the phone with those big, wet, sparkling eyes.
Wen Lingyi's fingertips unconsciously stroked the screen, as if she could touch the clumsy longing.
Xingxing: "I don't think I should let my emotions affect my work, especially since my job is safety-related. This is completely irresponsible to my clients!"
Xingxing: "I've become a terrible person"
Bad? Wen Lingyi didn't think so. What was wrong with Zhou Jianxing? She was obviously very responsible and loved her work. Just how big of a mess had she made this time to be so hard on herself?
Just because Wen Lingyi didn't contact her for a few days, this little fool became so distraught?
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "What's wrong? Is the impact serious?"
Xingxing: "Luckily, no one was hurt. If anyone was hurt, it would be serious."
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "So how did the matter get resolved in the end?"
Xingxing: "You should pay the money."
Well, they only said they would compensate him, but didn't say how much. Wen Lingyi resisted the urge to ask for the specific amount and changed the subject.
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "Then you don't blame her?"
Xingxing: "How can I blame her? If I have to blame someone, it's all my own fault. It's all my own fault for being so delusional. It has nothing to do with her."
Xingxing: "So I have to end all my relationship with her, otherwise I will only get deeper and deeper into trouble. Now I can no longer live a normal life or work normally."
Is it that serious? Wen Lingyi's heart sank.
Feng Xin Suo Ai: "Do you like her that much?"
Xingxing: "I like it very much, I like it very much"
It’s not just one “like”, it’s two “very like”, it seems that Zhou Jianxing really likes it.
Wen Lingyi was not satisfied with just seeing these six words through the cold screen. She wanted Zhou Jianxing to say them to her in person, over and over again.
Withdrawal? It seemed she couldn't quit at all.
