With Old Shu's words, everyone got into their positions and started working. When Xia Mang took over the work from Shi Jing, she felt a little guilty. Although she was innocent, Shi Jing was undoubtedly more innocent.
After working in an awkward atmosphere for two consecutive days, Xiamang finally heaved a sigh of relief when the weekend arrived. Hang Long Real Estate's CASE was officially handed over to Xiamang on Friday afternoon. He did not have any direct contact with Hang Long for a while. Thinking about the four-person gathering on Saturday, Xiamang was a little happy.
Losing love doesn't mean that there's no sunshine in life. Even if we're abandoned, we should live happily and happily.
Therefore, when Xia Mang appeared in front of the other three people with a smile on her face, wearing a ponytail, a pair of dark green glazed earrings, a dark green loose sweater with gold thread, and a pair of skinny jeans and boots, the three people in the teahouse couldn't help but lower their heads and whisper to each other.
"Ye 'zi, are you mistaken?" The first to speak was Yan Lan, nicknamed Yan Yan. She was tall and slim, completely in line with the current aesthetic standards. Her voice was clear and her words were slow and gentle.
"Yeah, yeah. Look at Sammy, does she look like someone who's been heartbroken?”The second to speak was Yu Baibai. Her nickname was Bai Bai. She was petite and had two dimples when she smiled. Her voice was sweet and soft.
"How can I spout nonsense about this? All of you, shut up!" Swordswoman Ye's voice was quite loud, so Xia Mang could barely hear what Yanyan and Bai Bai were saying. However, as soon as Swordswoman Ye spoke, Xia Mang understood what the three of them were talking about.
"The more heartbroken you are, the more flirtatious you have to dress.”Xiamang smiled and sat down calmly, but how could his heart remain calm? He just told himself that he had to be happy, happier than when he was in love, so that his family and friends would not worry.
"Are you alright, Sammy?" Yanyan looked at Xia Mang carefully and was a little uncertain.
"I'm fine." Xiamang returned a warm smile, but her little canine teeth unconsciously bit her lower lip." Since I've accepted the truth, and I've been distracted outside, I still have to live my life. There's nothing wrong with me. Don't worry. It's just a breakup, isn't it? In this day and age, how many people could survive with their first love?”
After saying that, Xiamang lowered her eyes and laughed at herself. When she looked up again, she had returned to her usual happy expression. She reached out and placed the bag in her hand on the table. She took out the gifts inside and placed them in front of the three of them."Don't talk about me. Let's talk about you guys. Yanyan, are you still doing experiments day and night?”
Xiamang, Yezi, Yanyan, and Bai Bai were best friends in high school. Now, among the four, only Yanyan was still studying.
"Yeah, I'm about to break down. Her blossoming youth had quietly passed away in the boring laboratory. How despairing was this?”Yanyan's crisp voice coupled with her sad expression made people feel like she was pretending to be mature.
I forgot to mention that although Yanyan was holding a scalpel and doing all those things on the corpses, she still had the feelings of a little woman who was sad about spring and autumn, plus a little narcissism.
"You're simply a young woman's girlfriend. If you're so lonely, then develop a laboratory relationship.”Ye Zi was a straightforward person. The personality of a heroine hated the feelings of a little woman the most. She was born to be indecisive and sentimental.
Yanyan glanced at Ye Zi and said in a clear voice,""I know that you and Lin Ran are in love. Don't provoke us.”
"Yanyan, you always say that there's no handsome male graduate student in your college. If you're really lonely, you can find one among the undergraduate students.”Before Ye 'zi could say anything, she waved her hand and suggested with a smile," It's the trend now to have a brother-sister relationship. You should hurry back to the fashion."”
"Go to hell. I don't want an old cow to eat young grass.”Yanyan smiled and waved her hand, but Bai Bai hurriedly dodged.
According to Yanyan, the medical school that Yanyan was studying in was a strange one. She couldn't find any male graduate students that she was satisfied with. By the way, Yanyan's primary criteria for finding a boyfriend was: Handsome! He was so handsome that she could fall in love with him with just one look!
"Yanyan, you haven't met a handsome man who can make you fall in love with him at first glance in the past 26 years. Shouldn't you consider lowering your requirements a little?”Xiamang ordered some tea and picked up a longan as she peeled it.
The teahouse was self-service. After ordering tea, one could take whatever food they liked in the self-service area. The quality of the tea was questionable. In fact, the food in the self-service area was not popular. However, in the teahouse, one could sit from 10 am to 5 pm and chat in a small private room. The environment was quite quiet while listening to the sound of the guzheng outside.
"Wrong!" Yanyan's retort was also slow." Women should not lose confidence just because they are old. They should learn to be humble. Under the pressure of their surroundings, they should fall in love for the sake of falling in love and get married for the sake of getting married.”
"Forget it. You can still pretend to be young in the name of a student. After you graduate next year and start working, if you still don't have a boyfriend in a year and a half, it would be strange if your mother doesn't arrange blind dates for you every day.”Ye 'zi's words were very sharp, because the four people present knew that Mother Yan was not an ordinary " eager husband ".
"Damned Ye, if you keep talking, I'll poach you.”Ye 'zi had the ability to drive the usually gentle Yanyan crazy with just a few words.
" Go ahead, go ahead. The corner that you can poach is not a good corner. I still have to thank..." Ye 'zi suddenly stopped halfway and looked up at Xiamang. She suddenly stood up and pulled Yanyan up." Come, come, come with me to get some food. You only eat fruit and drink tea. Isn't this money wasted?"”
Xia Mang smiled bitterly in her heart. When they were in high school, they did not know what it was like to be sad. When they joked around, they would joke more than once that whoever had a boyfriend must take the initiative to " hook up " with her boyfriend without the other party knowing. They wanted to test if he was firm in his stance. If he was firm, they would congratulate him. If he was half-hearted, they would be eliminated. At that time, they were so innocent. They thought that if the man was really half-hearted, he would protect them after being eliminated. However, they never thought that when they were eliminated to protect themselves, they would also cut their hearts.
After breaking up with Wen Hao, there was nothing to hide in front of these three best friends, and he did not have to worry about the three of them looking at him with curiosity, inquiry, or sympathy. However, no matter how nonchalant Xia Mang acted, her heart would still be moved. Some words and some things would be more sensitive than before. Perhaps, all he needed was time, Xia Mang thought.
"Sammy…" It was a wailing voice, soft and sweet with a hint of hesitation. Ye 'zi and Yanyan went to get some food, leaving Xiamang and Baibai alone in the room.
Xiamang looked up when she heard that, then lowered her head again and smiled to herself. She collected herself and threw away those annoying questions. When she looked up again, she was already smiling sweetly."I'm fine. Lovelorn doesn't kill people. Life is always moving forward.”
"Yes." She nodded her head in a hurry and held the teacup in front of her with both hands. She took a sip and swallowed a few times before she said hesitantly," Brother Xiao is back?"”
Kao, so he wasn't trying to comfort her in private, but rather, he was trying to pull her into his dreams! As Xiamang thought about this, she answered the question with a little caution.""Brother Xiao? Which Big Brother Xiao? Could it be Xiao Feng? Actually, I think Qiao Feng is more popular.”
"Sammy…" There was a tinge of coquettishness in her voice, but it was not pretentious. Her slightly chubby face suddenly turned red, and her dimples were very shallow when she spoke.
Seeing this, Xiamang was delighted and teased,""Sister Ah Zhu, your Brother Xiao is really back. Do you want me to call him and ask him to come over for tea?”
"No, no!" Before Xia Mang could finish his sentence, he waved his hand and said anxiously, his face turning even redder.
"Hey, Bai Bai, don't tell me you want to have a crush on her for the rest of your life?”Bai Bai, Yanyan, and Ye 'zi visited Xiamang's house during the winter vacation. Xiao Linghui, who was already in university, came to look for Xiamang, so the few of them got to know each other. Later on, during the winter and summer holidays, they met many times. It didn't take long for Bai Bai to fall in love with Xiao Linghui. However, after many years, the crush was still a crush. It didn't escalate to an open relationship, nor did it escalate to a breakup. Bai Bai didn't even dare to take the initiative to add Xiao Linghui's QQ and Messenger, let alone his sister.
"Actually, he likes you. It's not like you don't know.”Bai Bai didn't sound jealous when she said this. Her voice was as sweet and soft as usual. Perhaps she knew that Xiao Linghui liked Xiamang before she fell in love with him, so she didn't have a knot in her heart.
"Bai Bai, of course he likes me. The relationship between us is comparable to that of siblings. But that was all. If it was about the love between a man and a woman, it was impossible for him not to express his pursuit after so many years.”Xia Mang did not think much of it. His relationship with Xiao Linghui was very strong, but it would be ridiculous to say that this relationship was between a man and a woman. After all, according to his parents, the first person he saw when he opened his eyes was not them, but Xiao Linghui, who was extremely curious and passionate about her. They had known each other for more than 20 years, but Xiao Linghui had never crossed the boundaries of friendship and family. He had never done anything ambiguous or misunderstood.
"Who has any intentions of pursuing me?" As soon as Xia Mang finished speaking, she heard a familiar voice approaching from afar. She turned her head and saw Ye Zi carrying a large plate of food in, followed by Yanyan, who was also carrying a large plate of snacks.
"It's none of your business. You're already taken, Heroine Ye.”Xiamang glanced at Ye Zi and moved the plates on the table to the side to make room." Is there anything delicious?" she asked without much hope.”
"Pickle chicken feet, spicy duck head, crayfish. I've brought everything that can interest you.”Leaf placed the small plates on the table one by one. Her movements were clean and neat, like a professional waiter.
"Thanks." Xiamang took the small bowl of vinegar from Leaf, picked up a chicken foot, dipped it in vinegar, and ate it contentedly.
Yes, contented. Sometimes, life was just that simple. A delicious meal could make one feel contented and happy.
The four of them chatted as they ate and comforted Xiamang a little. Seeing that Xiamang was calm and composed, everyone felt a little relieved. As they chatted, the atmosphere became very lively. Xia Mang, who was widely acknowledged to be the happiest of the four, was now replaced by Ye Zi. Although Xia Mang did not feel that her breakup had made her unfortunate, everyone felt that Xu Wenhao had let her down by giving up on her and the love that had made countless people envious. Therefore, the " abandoned " Xia Mang was a weakling in life and an unfortunate person in love.
"It's better than cheating and divorcing after marriage. It's better than canceling the wedding banquet one by one after the wedding date has been set.”Xiamang was very good at comforting herself. Perhaps everyone had a little bit of Ah Q spirit. For example, it was better to comfort themselves after losing their wallets than to be in trouble or sick. People had the ability to comfort themselves and recover.
"Ye, you have to be careful of Lin Ran too. Wen Hao looks like a new good man. I didn't expect him to do such a thing. In the future, when Lin Ran has social gatherings at night, you have to be more careful.”Yanyan loved to eat food like bean products and Liangpi vermicelli. Now, she was working hard on a small portion of Liangpi as she spoke to Ye Zi in a crisp and leisurely manner, as if it had nothing to do with her.
"He doesn't socialize much at night." Leaf was holding a duck head in her hand and was about to eat it. She was startled when she heard this, but she quickly recovered.
"Wenhao actually doesn't have many social gatherings.”Xia Mang blurted out. After she finished speaking, she was stunned for a moment and quickly smiled." Ye 'zi, don't worry. Lin Ran won't do that. A man who has been taken in by you, Heroine Ye, wouldn't have the guts to do that even if he had the intention to do so."”
"Of course!" Ye Zi forcefully opened her mouth and answered firmly, but she felt a little guilty. After all, Wen Hao was good and everyone agreed on it at that time. However, the truth was not beyond everyone's expectations.
Free and easy like a leaf, confident and open-minded like a leaf. At this moment, the usual certainty in his heart also shook slightly. Perhaps deep down, women were paranoid--paranoid caused by a lack of security. Moreover, in this fickle and flashy society, it was no longer surprising for Xia Mang to suffer like this. Love was becoming more and more fast-food. It came and went faster.
