Chapter 63: The Eve of Leaving 2
Jian Wei parked the car and Yan Yan walked out of the car, one left and one right. I looked at the two of them, but didn't say anything.
In the restaurant, Yan Yan and Jian Wei sat aside. As soon as they sat firmly, Yan Yan spoke to me and said, "Tell me, why did you resign? Yesterday I heard Fang Yuan say that you will almost certainly be the leader of your Polygon Department Store's planning copywriting team! This is too sudden and too illogical!"
"I have been floating outside for so many years, and I am tired and want to go back." I smiled and said in a very relaxed manner.
Yan Yan's expression was very serious and said, "This is definitely not the truth. Zhaoyang, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, okay?"
"I have quit my job, and you really don't need to ask the questions in the end. I just hope you can tell Fang Yuan that I am not the kind of scum he thinks of who betrays his boss and brothers for his own benefit... I will go back to Xuzhou in a few days. I will not take anything away in this city because I have nothing, including Fang Yuan's benefits. I will leave cleanly." I said, igniting a cigarette regardless of the presence of the two women, and my heart was depressed. When I really wanted to leave this city empty, I realized that the years I should have fought hard were abandoned by myself in a daze, so I could only return to Xuzhou from Suzhou with a useless face.
Yan Yan waved her hand to dispel the smoke that I spit out, and said to me excitedly: "Zhaoyang, I don't understand. You finally saw the future in this city and your company. Why did you resign? Why did you decide to return to Xuzhou? Even if you resign, you can find other jobs. Are you really willing to leave Suzhou so shamelessly?"
I was told by Yan Yan to the pain, and I was silent for a long time before saying, "I have been living in a dirt state, what's wrong with me?"
At this time, Jian Wei, who had been silent, finally spoke: "You are back, where is your girlfriend?"
I was a little surprised. Did Yan Yan not tell Jian Wei that Mi Cai was not my girlfriend?
Jian Wei kept looking at me, waiting for my answer, but I looked at Yan Yan. Yan Yan gave me a look and signaled that she did not tell Jian Wei about this.
I immediately said, "Just break up, isn't this just a matter of one sentence? Who would still expect to have a relationship these days, and go to grow old together!"
My words were emotional, because when Jian Wei broke up with me, she simply and resolutely said to me, "Break Up."
Jian Wei looked at me again with that complicated expression, just like the expression she had before she accepted Xiang Chen's confession last time.
This time I didn't avoid Jian Wei's eyes and just looked at her. My relationship with her for many years collapsed because of her breakup. Is it necessary to care about the love with Mi Cai that never existed?
Yan Yan looked at Jian Wei and me a little embarrassedly. Finally, I finally asked Jian Wei after being silent: "Why are you looking for me with Yan Yan?"
Jian Wei did not answer, Yan Yan explained on behalf of Jian Wei, saying, "Jian Wei has been in Suzhou these days. We will make an appointment to go to the spa together tonight. We have had a meal together."
I nodded. This was a very reasonable explanation, but I still couldn't understand why Jian Wei had been staying in Suzhou and did not leave, but I didn't plan to ask because it had nothing to do with me.
...
The topic during the meal was pulled back, and Yan Yan said to me with great sincerity: "Zhaoyang, if you leave Suzhou, you should think carefully and consider it. Everything is unknown when you return to Xuzhou..."
I shook my head and said to Yan Yan seriously: "Don't think about it. Leaving this city is the best choice for me now. I am really happy to ask me out for this meal. At least I don't have nothing, and I'm still thinking about it."
Yan Yan sighed, her voice choked, and said, "I have always regarded you as my brother. I can't bear to part with you! You have been suffering alone for so many years and have finally waited for the days to survive. I resigned so suddenly... Alas! What's the matter!"
Yan Yan's words made me feel very uncomfortable, and I didn't want to make her sad, so I forced my face to smile and said, "You have been upgraded to a young woman, so don't talk about my younger brother all day long. I'm still gorgeous in the golden adolescence!"
Yan Yan smiled bitterly, and didn't say anything more. There was nothing to say, because everything had been settled, and it was not necessarily right to stay here, and it was not necessarily wrong to return to Xuzhou. The only thing I hope now is that Fang Yuan can understand me. If I come to Suzhou again in a few years, we can still say brothers to each other.
After dinner, Jian Wei drove Yan Yan away. I stood alone at the door of the restaurant and did not leave. I once again took out the film on the cigarette box, covered it in front of me and looked up at the starry sky. Apart from the bright sky set against the neon lights, I still couldn't find the crystal clear city, nor could I see the woman with long hair hanging down her shoulders.
While smoking a cigarette, I walked along the chaotic streets with the crowd. I didn't know how many streets I walked, but I returned to my residence, opened the door mechanically, and even washed myself lazy, covered myself tightly with clothes and quilts, and then found a pitiful sense of security in the airtight.
It was already late at night, and the only phone that made me feel like I was still in touch with the world rang again. I listened numbly, but was unwilling to answer the phone.
The call ringtone rang persistently, over and over again, and I was so annoyed that I finally lifted the quilt, grabbed my phone from the cabinet, and wanted to directly remove the power board and change it to a quiet place, but unexpectedly I saw that the person who called me was Le Yao, who had not been in contact for a long time.
While hesitating, I answered the phone, and then I heard Le Yao complaining: "Zhaoyang, why did you take the phone so long?"
"I'm asleep." I responded vaguely.
Le Yao no longer had to worry about answering the phone after a while. She said to me in a happy tone: "Guess where am I now?"
I didn't have the time to guess, and asked according to Le Yao's words: "Where?"
"Guess."
"It's definitely not in Hengdian anymore." I said so.
Le Yaote smiled happily and said, "I'm back to Suzhou... Are you staying in the hotel now?"
I asked in surprise: "Go back to Suzhou! Have your scene finished so soon?"
"No, this time the crew is going to the Humble Administrator's Garden in Suzhou to film, so I will come back with the crew just right."
"Oh, then I'll treat you to a meal when you have time."
"The plays in Humble Administrator's Garden are all day and available at night, so you can treat me to dinner tomorrow night."
"Well, call me when you finish work tomorrow." I said.
This is also good. Before leaving Suzhou, there is still a chance to say goodbye to Le Yao. I just remembered that I didn’t seize the opportunity she had won for me, and I felt guilty again.
"Okay, then wait for my phone call... By the way, I want to eat bamboo chicken at Alin Hotel."
I smiled and said, "You really know how to eat!"
"A person will always meet one or two foodies in his life. Obviously, the foodies you meet are me."
"Okay, no problem, I want to eat bamboo chicken too!"
"Hmph, then I've been looking forward to it now!" Le Yao said with anticipation in her words, which further verified that she is a foodie.
"Looking forward, it's better to have some drinks with me."
"Okay... it's getting late, I'll go to bed first and wait for your invitation tomorrow.
...
After finishing the call with Le Yao, I looked at the sky outside the window with good moonlight and looked forward to tomorrow, but I didn’t know if I was looking forward to meeting Le Yao, bamboo chicken, or the few taels of white wine that I hadn’t drunk yet.
