Putting aside the love-hate topic of love, the four of them chatted happily as they ate. They talked about their high school days, the recent developments of their high school classmates, and their respective developments. They could not help but sigh. Finally, Ye Zi took out two decks of poker cards from her bag and the four of them played a game of " 24 ".

The four of them only paid the bill and left when the time for the private room was approaching. They went shopping, had supper, and then went home separately. After Xiamang had registered with her parents, she returned to Ye 'zi's apartment.

Ye 'zi had taken out a mortgage on an apartment and lived alone. Her parents had moved to another city to work and live, so Ye' zi stayed. It was not until they entered Ye 'zi's little nest that Xia Mang and Ye' zi lay side by side on the bed and chatted. Ye 'zi had only mentioned the past slightly, expressing her worry and comfort, but it easily touched the seemingly strong but actually fragile nerve in Xia Mang's heart. In front of Ye' zi, Xia Mang cried for the first time, turning all the pain in her heart, all the resentment, and all the unwillingness into tears, completely venting.

Xia Mang knew that she was not as strong as others thought. Sometimes, the stronger she looked, the more fragile she was. Sometimes, the more she looked fine on the surface, the more painful she felt inside. Xia Mang had once cried in front of Xiao Linghui. At that time, she thought that she had vented all her emotions. All that was left was to wait for the wound in her heart to slowly heal over time. However, reality proved that it was useless to pretend to be calm. The heart was the most uncontrollable thing. Try not to think, try not to recall, try not to think, but it did not mean that you would not think, remember, or think.

"Sammy, are you willing?" Ye 'zi held Xiamang in her arms, letting Xiamang's tears wet her pajamas.

"Ye 'zi, I'm not willing to accept this, but what can I do? I can't compromise, I can't accept it, and I can't change the outcome.”Xiamang's eyes were red and swollen. His voice was nasal and a little hoarse.

This was the most sincere thought in Xia Mang's heart. How could he accept this? But so what if he was unwilling? Chu Ning had Wen Hao's child, so she was just an outsider now.

"Where's Xu Wenhao?" Out of the four best friends in high school, only Xiamang and Ye 'zi had entered the same university. Although they were in different classes and majors, Ye' zi was the one who knew the most about Xiamang and Xu Wenhao's journey. Ye 'zi knew that Xu Wenhao did not end up like this because he had a change of heart or because he no longer loved Xiamang. His heart still loved Xiamang, but his body had betrayed him. It was precisely because of this that Ye' zi felt that the so-called love was sometimes like an ornament. It was only beautiful to look at, but it was only pleasing to the eye.

Actually, Ye 'zi asked this because Xu Wenhao had called her many times. When Xiamang went to Yunnan, her phone was turned off. That was why Ye' zi could rush to Xiamang's house the second day after Xiamang came back and know everything. Ye Zi was quite close to Xu Wenhao because of his relationship with Xiamang. Initially, Xu Wenhao had been chasing Xiamang for a long time, but he couldn't take him down. He had spent a lot of effort on Ye Zi. After chasing him for more than two years, Ye Zi felt that he was a good person and had put in a lot of good words for him.

"Tomorrow, I will pack up and return the things he gave me to him. Then, we will be completely even and will never contact each other again.”Xiamang reached out to hug Ye, her voice so soft that it sounded like she was muttering to herself." Ye, come with me tomorrow." Since we have broken up, I will no longer be friends with him. I am afraid that I will not be able to control myself. Ye 'zi, I am having a hard time holding it in.”

" Sammy…" Leaf's heart ached when she heard that. Xiamang had always been an optimistic person. She was innocent and cute, and she lived a simple life. From her birth to her studies and then to her job, she had never experienced any hardships, let alone small waves. Losing love was not a big deal, and it was even more common in this society. However, for Xiamang, it was something she had never encountered before. Love, the more beautiful it was when it came, the sweeter it was in the process, and the more hurtful it was when it left. Moreover, Xiamang's love ended with such an ending.

However, hearing Xiamang's words, Ye 'zi couldn't help but feel relieved. This was the real Xia Mang. She was most afraid that Xia Mang would not say anything and appear calm and collected while he endured everything alone in his heart.

The next day, near noon, when Xiamang was washing up with her panda eyes, Leaf had already prepared a table of dishes. Xiamang ate and drank freely. He didn't feel embarrassed watching Ye Zi wash the dishes and clean up the kitchen. After everything was done, Ye Zi followed Xiamang home. Xia Mang's parents didn't ask much, so she pulled Ye Zi into the room and closed the door.

Xiamang rummaged through the cabinets to find all the gifts that Wen Hao had given her. Ye 'zi was responsible for packing them up. The ten little pigs had already been put away a few days ago, and now they had taken up a lot of space. When they were properly packed, there were four big bags of things.

"Actually, Sammy, you can choose express delivery.”Leaf suggested. It was normal to return things, but wouldn't it be embarrassing for two people to carry two big bags in each hand? Moreover, Ye 'zi didn't think Xu Wenhao would accept it. It would probably be awkward again.

"I know." Xiamang said that she knew. Clearly, she had made the decision after weighing the pros and cons.

"Then you…"

"So be it. I don't want to receive his calls, messages, and even flowers every day.”" I've already vented my emotions in front of Ye last night, so there's no need to pretend to be calm and strong in front of Ye today." I don't want to be disturbed by him anymore. I don't want to be affected by him.”

"Sammy..."

"Ye, let me be willful and selfish for once. I don't want to turn back, I can't turn back, I can't be greedy, I can't be soft-hearted, I can't hesitate, I can't forgive.”

Sammy, Leaf's heart ached and she sighed softly. Xiamang's forced smile and nonchalant look these few days were all fake. How could he accept such a sudden break in their relationship? How could he be willing? Xu Wenhao must have put in a lot of effort in the past few days. When he called her, he had tried to comfort Xiamang and was anxious to tell her that he would take care of Chu Ning's matter. He had asked her to put in a good word for him in front of Xiamang, hoping that Xiamang would give him another chance. Since Xu Wenhao had said that to him, it wasn't hard to imagine that Xu Wenhao had never given up on Xiamang and was still working hard. Xiamang said that she didn't want to turn back, couldn't turn back, couldn't be greedy, couldn't be soft-hearted, couldn't hesitate, and couldn't forgive. Did that mean that she still loved Xu Wenhao deeply in her heart?

The two of them each carried two bags of things and left the house. Mother Xia looked at Ye 'zi worriedly, and Ye' zi returned a comforting smile. Mother Xia didn't say much. Before closing the door, she only told Xia Mang and Ye 'zi to come home for dinner.

Wen Hao was already waiting at the coffee shop. When he saw Ye Zi and Xia Mang appear at the same time, he was happy but a little stunned. That day, Xiamang was finally willing to pick up his call and even set a time and place to meet. Wen Hao had hoped that there was still room for negotiation between the two of them. But now, there was a touch of bitterness on his face. He did not know if it was because he saw Ye 'zi beside Xiamang or the four bags in their hands. Or both.

" Xia Zi…" Wen Hao stood up and habitually wanted to take the things from Xia Mang's hands. He reached out his hand halfway and finally put it down.

Xia Zi, Blind. Xia Mang lowered her eyes slightly and placed the things on the coffee table. She did not understand why the sweet and intimate way of addressing him now sounded so ironic. Perhaps Xu Wenhao was like a certain superstar," just " making a mistake that all men in the world would make. Many women chose to forgive, choose to forget, and choose to compromise, but Xiamang could not do it.

"These are all your things. I'm returning them to you now. I hope you won't do those boring and useless things anymore.”Xiamang's eyes were still downcast, and he did not look at Wen Hao when he said this.

"Xia Zi…"

Wen Hao only said two words before he was interrupted by Xia Mang."Stop calling me Xia Zi. It sounds like a blind man!”

Wen Hao's entire body trembled when he heard this. He opened his mouth to speak, but no sound came out. Ye Zi, who was sitting next to Xia Mang, carefully tugged at Xia Mang's clothes under the table. Seeing Xu Wenhao like this, she couldn't bear to see him like this. Although he was unforgivable, he did love Xiamang deeply.

"Xia Zi, I can resolve this matter. Trust me, give me another chance.”Even though Xiamang's words made his heart ache, Xu Wenhao still persisted and fought for it.

"Xu Wenhao, how are you going to solve this? What I don't forgive is that you did that behind my back, not that you had a child after that. Even if Chu Ning isn't pregnant now, even if Chu Ning has a child and doesn't let you take responsibility, I still can't forgive you.”Fortunately, Xiamang was at a relatively remote corner of the cafe. Although her voice was not soft, it did not attract the attention of the people sitting next to her.

"Xia Zi, forgive me this once, just this once.”Wen Hao's voice was very soft, so soft that it seemed like the words were spilling out from his heart.

Xia Mang wanted to laugh when he heard that. His eyes were slightly wet and his vision was a little blurry. Through a thin layer of mist, he looked at the familiar person in front of him who he had wanted to entrust his life to. Suddenly, he said calmly,"If I made the same mistake, would you forgive me? Would you give me a chance? If he did, would there be a knot in his heart?”

" Xia Zi..." The pain on Wen Hao's face was so obvious that the hesitation in the pain was also clearly visible.

"Enough, stop talking." At this moment, Xiamang understood everything." If we break up, we won't be friends anymore. It's better not to see each other, it's better not to miss each other. You and I can't untie this knot in our hearts, so how can you expect me to make do with it?”

How many women could forgive a man's betrayal, and how many men could tolerate a woman's cheating? Men were all the same after all. No matter how he thought that Wen Hao was different, the truth now proved that everything was just an illusion. Moreover, he had really done the same thing and made the same mistake. When he thought of this, his heart ached even more. He was even more unwilling to stay here, not even for a second longer! Xia Mang stood up abruptly, turned around, and ran out. Leaf looked at Wen Hao who was still standing behind her, then followed Xia Mang out of the cafe.

" Sammy..." Leaf held Xiamang's hand and gestured for her to not walk so fast.

"Ye 'zi, I wanted to smash all those things in front of him and make him give up. I wanted him to stop clinging to this relationship, but I suddenly realized that there was no need for that.”Tears rolled down from the corners of Xia Mang's eyes as he spoke.

She knew, only she knew, that he and Wen Hao could never go back.
