After a few minutes, Sister Teng ran in from outside.
Seeing her sitting on the ground alone, the Sister Teng was terrified. She quickly gave a towel to Xiao Luo and called her in.
She found out later on that Guan Yumo had specifically told the Sister Teng in a cold tone after she had changed her clothes, "No one is allowed to go in and see her.
According to Sister Teng, he was so angry that her chest was violently rising and falling.
But she knew, in the end, that his heart ached. This deliberate explanation, wasn't to prevent Sister Teng from going in to see, but to let Sister Teng go in to see her.
Although she knew that he still cared about her, the icy cold water tonight truly penetrated her heart. Adding on her defeat tonight, this was the first time she had thought of not seeing him again.
Yes, the beating heart in her chest slowly grew a hard cocoon around the softness, cutting off the warm flow of blood, and she persisted in following his back until the shadow faded far away and became a needle in her heart.
She didn't want to hurt anymore.
However, if it was really easy to give up loving someone, then it wasn't love anymore??
It was only a week later that she began to miss him again.
She wanted to know what he was doing...
She wanted to know if he had thought of her during the week when they had not contacted each other??
Unfortunately, she could not get an answer because she did not have the courage to call him anymore. She was afraid that she would be met with another ruthless retaliation from him.
When Xu Zhan sat opposite of his, her drowning thoughts were pulled back to reality and she barely managed to force out a smile, "Hai, what a coincidence."
Ever since she stopped going to the bar, she and Xu Zhan had not interacted much. This was the second time they had met each other this week.
The first time he saw her, he was at the door of Illyan Model. He held her in his arms, but instead of leaving her behind as usual, he said hello and left.
"How could that be a coincidence? I heard from others that you often come to this restaurant for lunch and specifically come over to take a look. Sure enough, you're here." With that, he called for a waiter and ordered a western meal just like hers.
She lowered her head and continued to eat.
Xu Zhan said, "Since I came looking for you like this, why don't you ask me why I'm looking for you?"
She asked lazily, "Why did you come to find me?"
"Because I suddenly feel that my female companion beside me is boring, and I still feel that it's fun to be with you."
She gently laughed, "Then you are really bored?? "What's the point of being with me?"
Xu Zhan suddenly looked at her very deeply, "Just looking at you like that is already very interesting."
"She raised her head and met Xu Zhan's unfathomable eyes. Don't waste your time on me... I mean, the people I've always loved..."
Unexpectedly, before she could finish her sentence, a waiter had already pushed a cart with a huge bouquet of flowers on it.
She was stu ed.
Xu Zhan got up and picked up the bouquet, said a "thank you" to the waiter, gave her a tip, and then gracefully walked in front of her. Happy birthday, Mu Ying."
Out of politeness, she rose slowly from the table and, as she took the bouquet in a daze, realized that it was her birthday.
She had never remembered her birthday, not because it was too late, but because people around her always helped her remember it.
If she was in the Mu residence in the past, Second Grandpa would definitely hold a birthday banquet for her. If she was with Guan Yumo, Guan Yumo would definitely bring her to a special place for her birthday.
Thinking of this, she could not help but feel dejected.
This year, Guan Yumo should have already forgotten her birthday, right?
Xu Zhan looked at her. Sorry, I just happened to see your information at Illyan Corporation and knew that you were having a birthday. Since I was about to fly to China to handle some business, I couldn't make you a cake to celebrate, so you accepted the flowers with a smile."
She raised her head and smiled at Xu Zhan. Thank You... Even the person I love might not remember my birthday, and you and I are not even friends, yet you sent me such a beautiful bouquet of flowers. I feel very warm."
Xu Zhan frowned, and said seriously: "How can we say that we are not friends? We almost got married."
She was amused by Xu Zhan's words. This was the only time she was really smiling this week. Regardless..."Thank you."
Xu Zhan raised his hand and checked the time. Sigh, I originally wanted to eat with you, looks like I won't have the time."
She noticed that Xu Zhan's secretary was waiting for him at a place not too far away, she smiled gently, "Go and busy yourself?? When you return from your business trip, I'll treat you to a meal."
Xu Zhan squinted, revealing a cu ing look. I have already written it down. You are not allowed to go back on your words! "
She smiled and nodded."I will never go back on my word."
She really should thank him well, because after that, she might even ask for his help.
She suddenly felt that she was too stupid. The night that Guan Yumo came to the pub, why didn't she get closer to Xu Zhan to provoke him?
Although the chances were very low, perhaps she could see that he was jealous.
On such a special day, there were no friends by his side, and the person he loved no longer cared about him. It was inevitable that he would be especially lonely.
She did not want to return to her apartment to face the cold bedroom and walk alone through the streets of Paris, hoping that the noise around her would make her less lonely.
Seeing a couple playing in front of the fountain, she stopped and stared at them.
It occurred to him that one year, on her birthday, he had taken her to a fountain pool.
It was a huge fountain pool, and he was covering her eyes. When she opened them, all the fountains leapt to the sky to form the initials for her English name. In the light of the lamp, the fountain was breathtakingly beautiful.
She would never forget that moment. She hugged him with excitement, and he looked down at her tenderly.
There were a lot of onlookers at the time, and they all thought they were a couple, but by then she already knew that there was someone else in his heart.
Thus, at that moment, how she wished that it could last forever.
The phone's ringtone interrupted her memory, and just as she had guessed, it was not that person, but her good friend Qin Qian.
Earlier, her second grandfather and her own brother, Chi Yifeng, had already fought.
"She answered with a smile." "Hey."
"I'm so sorry, I've been so busy thinking about your birthday... My dear, may you be beautiful and happy every day."
"Thank you." she said sincerely.
"In the past, if you were at the Mu residence, Old Mu would definitely arrange everything for you without restraint. But now that you are in Paris and Guan Yumo has misunderstood you, isn't today's birthday very miserable?" Qin Qian asked with a pained heart.
She sat down by the fountain and looked absentmindedly at the fountain, smiling." I haven't told you yet, but I won't be in any danger, because Guan Yumo already knows that I didn't betray him because of selfishness?? "
"Oh, really?" Qin Qian was pleasantly surprised.
She slowly explained the situation to her good friend and used this call to resolve her current loneliness.
