Some fate was hard to recover once missed, but it was hard to follow.
Wen Nuan had promised Ye Ningyuan that she would be Xiao Jue's matchmaker. She took out her spare time on Saturday morning and brought Jing Ru's photo to invite Xiao Jue out. They met at Yuan Yuan Cafe, which Wen Nuan frequented. The environment there was elegant and suitable for discussing matters.
The two of them arrived at the meeting place less than five minutes apart. After they sat down, they each ordered a cup of coffee and sat opposite each other. Wen Nuan sat by the window, while Xiao Jue sat facing the window. The two of them didn't speak at first. They just lowered their heads and stirred the coffee in front of each other. After a long time, Xiao Jue took the initiative to break the silence." Nuannuan, you must have something to ask me out alone."”Xiao Jue went straight to the point, which was the best for Wen Nuan, because she was waiting for him to open his mouth, and he opened it first. Xiao Jue understood Wen Nuan's character. She must have something important to ask him to meet her alone, because Wen Nuan was a woman who knew her limits and was very well-behaved in marriage.
Wen Nuan stirred the coffee as she slowly said," Jue, actually, I, I'm…" For a moment, she didn't know what to say. This was the first time Wen Nuan was matchmaking someone, and the matchmaker was her first love. Naturally, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Xiao Jue saw Wen Nuan stutter and said,"Nuan Nuan, if you have anything to say, just say it. Don't treat me as an outsider."
After a long time, Wen Nuan took out Jing Ru's photo from her bag and placed it in front of Xiao Jue. She said somewhat embarrassedly," Jue, what do you think of this girl?"
Xiao Jue glanced coldly at the photo in front of him and saw a girl in a lace dress with a Ferris wheel behind her. The girl had delicate facial features and a good figure. She was a beauty. However, Xiao Jue only glanced at her lightly and didn't care at all. When he saw Wen Nuan's blushing face, he immediately understood." Nuan Nuan, are you going to introduce this girl to me?"”
Wen Nuan nodded slightly and said seriously. Her name was Jing Ru, the cousin of Ning Yuan's best friend. Her father was Hu Cheng, a well-known wealthy businessman in Dongchuan. Jing Ru was twenty-six years old this year and graduated from a famous university. She had a lively and cheerful personality and was once married. However, three days after their marriage, they got into a car accident on their honeymoon. Her husband passed away while protecting her, but Jing Ru survived. I've seen this girl before. She's not bad. You're too reserved, but she's lively. The two of you complement each other, just like Ning Yuan and me. He's cheerful and I'm quiet. We complement each other, so I think it's very good. Jue, Su Fang has left you for several years. She also hopes that you can find a companion as soon as possible and find a mother for Kun Peng.。
After hearing Wen Nuan's endless words, Xiao Jue's face was still as calm as water. He slowly pushed the photo in front of Wen Nuan and said," Nuan Nuan, I appreciate your kindness, but I think it's good this way.”Xiao Jue didn't hesitate and rejected her directly. He felt a bit upset. The woman he loved the most in his life wanted to push him to someone else mercilessly. However, they were destined to be impossible. Things remained the same and people had changed. Now, they could only be the most familiar strangers. The relationship between them had to be as calm as water. Warmth could do it, but Xiao Jue couldn't. It was fine when he had a family, but now he was single again. If he wasn't a soldier and hadn't received a good education, perhaps he would have really taken the warmth from Ye Ningyuan's side without caring about anything else. But now, his identity didn't allow him to do so. He couldn't lose the big for the small. Women couldn't afford to lose their youth, but men couldn't afford to lose their careers. He had gradually become an officer from an ordinary soldier. His future was already bright. It was unimaginable to suddenly look back on the hardships along the way. If she could do everything over again, she might not be doing as well as she did now.
Wen Nuan wasn't surprised that Xiao Jue rejected her, but she still wanted to try her best." Jue, don't be stubborn. You're so busy with work every day. It's impossible for you to take care of every woman around you. Just listen to me and accept this blind date. Perhaps you'll have feelings for her after you meet her. Marriage is a wonderful thing. I hope you can seize every opportunity and not miss out on happiness."”
Xiao Jue still stubbornly said," I don't need it. You know that I'm a man of my word. Besides, if I start a family, it means that my relationship with the Zhao family will naturally drift apart. You also know the influence and connections of the Zhao family in the military. If I lose this big tree, it will be very disadvantageous to my future. The Zhao family still treats me the same as before because I didn't marry after Sufang left. Besides, Kunpeng is with sister Sufang." If I remarry, then Kunpeng will definitely come back. The Zhao family will slowly alienate me because of my remarriage. I don't want this to happen. Nuannuan, you must know how difficult it was for Ye Ningyuan to rise from an ordinary civil servant to the position of deputy director. It was also not easy for me to rise from an ordinary soldier to where I am today. I was transferred back to Dongchuan because of the Zhao family. Many of the higher-ups in Dongchuan's military are my father-in-law's juniors or comrades. You should understand how powerful this is.
Xiaojue's reason was not entirely perfunctory to Wen Nuan. It was indeed so. Now, in his opinion, his future was more important than anything else. Since he could not get Wen Nuan, he could not lose his future. Back then, he could stay in the team because his family was worried that he could not stay in the team in peace because of his relationship with Wen Nuan. That was why his mother forced Wen Nuan to break up with him. Everything could not be salvaged, so he could only kneel down and continue walking forward.
Wen Nuan looked at Xiaojue in disappointment. She couldn't tell what she was feeling. Was the man in front of her still the Xiaojue she knew? She asked again and again in her heart,
…Ah, my results are too bad. I'm depressed.
