[089] Break up
"I'm just a game player."
After Lin Tang finished speaking, Jiang Lingxi was still staring at him, her eyes were bright, but her eyes slowly showed some aggrievance and a stubborn look. She gently bit her lips and stared at him without saying a word.
Lin Tang continued: "I know playing professionally is cruel. Maybe I have been working hard for several years and my body can't hold on anymore. I'm going to retire. Not to mention the champion, I may have disappeared in the LPL, and few viewers noticed it."
"I may have been like this until I retired, and I was unknown."
"It is also possible that you really make a fortune, win the championship, or even the world championship... But even so, you won't be able to play for a few years. More young people flock in, the competition is getting more and more intense, and you will face the situation of being unable to play for a while."
"At that time, you may only be able to retire from live broadcasts, and then rely on your previous popularity and traffic for a while, and you will soon get more and more delicious... This should be the best situation."
"Of course there is another option, which is to go back and study hard, but the longer you work for a career, the harder it will be..."
"Your brother is really good, and what he said makes sense. He even takes care of my ideas in all aspects. I can't take up other topics, so he only talks about games, even his girlfriend... I'm very grateful, really."
"Of course, it's also for you...I don't like you, but I really..."
He smiled again, "I'm just a game player."
"You ask me to exercise, I am willing to exercise, stay healthy, and at least I can play for a few more years, right? You ask me to watch documentaries, and I am willing to watch it. At worst, you can watch less competition videos and watch less movies; you ask me to go to bed early, and I am willing to go to bed early, and I can also train in the morning. At worst, you can wait a little longer and have fewer professional players... In fact, there are not many, after all, other competition areas have a time difference with us..."
"But even so, I'm just a game player, I can't be reincarnated or choose again. I'm not a young talent, nor have I have long-term vision, grand ideals... I can't bear so many expectations."
After he finished speaking, he didn't dare to look at Jiang Lingxi again, and looked to the side, "I know myself. After all, I'm just a game player."
After pausing for a few seconds, he slowly turned his head and explained with a smile: "Seven days have not arrived yet. I'm talking about these things now, so it should be within a reasonable range..."
Jiang Lingxi still didn't say anything.
Lin Tang didn't dare to look at her again, looked away and looked at the lotus magnolia through the car window.
After a while, Jiang Lingxi still didn't respond. He finally couldn't help but turn around and saw that her face was covered with tears.
Lin Tang raised his hand, put it down, opened his mouth, and closed it again.
Then hesitated for a moment, and still reached out. Before he could touch her, Jiang Lingxi had already reached out to wipe away her tears. Then she sucked another tissue, wiped the tears on her face, sniffed gently, and looked at him and said, "What else?"
Lin Tang put his hand back, hesitated for two seconds, and continued: "What should I do if I retire in the future? I haven't decided yet, but... I should decide this myself... I don't want to listen to my parents' arrangements, and of course I don't want to listen to other people's arrangements."
"This is the real reason, right?"
Jiang Lingxi pinched the tissue soaked in tears into a ball and hit him hard, "You said so much, just thinking about yourself!"
Lin Tang glanced at her, said nothing, and silently bent down and picked up the fallen tissue and put it in the car door storage.
"After all, it's my fault, I shouldn't be so nice to you..."
Jiang Lingxi tried hard to control her emotions, but tears still couldn't stop rolling down, "We shouldn't be so proactive, we shouldn't be treating you like this, and we shouldn't like you!"
"I should have heard Qianqian for a long time. I thought I really liked her and didn't have to care so much. In your eyes, isn't it just self-deprecating?"
She sniffed and choked up with tears in her mouth, "You have said so much, but in fact, I just think I'll care about you and interfere with you. Now even my brother has begun to plan your life. You feel that you are not free, your life is arranged by others, and your rights are violated, right?"
Lin Tang opened his mouth and closed it again.
Although Jiang Lingxi was emotional, she obviously did not lose her rationality. She wiped away her tears again and stared at him and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Lin Tang was silent for two seconds, shook his head, "No."
Jiang Lingxi looked at him, and the two looked at each other for a few seconds. Lin Tang looked away and continued to look at the white lotus magnolia outside the car window, which should have been speechless.
After a long time, Jiang Lingxi said, "Then break up, you don't have to wait for seven days, so that you can get rid of four days earlier."
Lin Tang turned her head, her eyes were red, and there was still mist in her eyes, but she raised her chin slightly, turned her head and looked out the window, like a proud swan who had been injured and fell from the mud, and she became increasingly reluctant to bow her head.
Lin Tang looked at her side face that looked colder again, the colder it became, the more beautiful it became, the more transcendent it was. She was silent for a few seconds and said softly: "Okay."
Jiang Lingxi turned around, the two looked at each other, then she turned her head again, stared ahead, and remained silent.
Then he continued to remain silent for a while.
Lin Tang reached out and grabbed the door handle and said, "I'll leave first."
She looked over with her eyes, her snow-white and crystal-clear teeth bit her lips, her eyes were crystal clear, as clear as autumn water, and her voice was as sharp as ice and snow. It was crisp and clear: "Okay."
Lin Tang was silent for two seconds, and finally looked at her, as if she was about to say something, but in the end she just opened the car door silently, picked up the piece of tissue, and then closed the car door.
"Bang"
The car door is gently closed.
Jiang Lingxi looked at the empty seat, then raised her up slightly, staring at the car window, as if it had been a long time, but in fact it was only a few seconds. She sniffed, wiped off the tears that had fallen out at some point with a tissue, and then continued to suck her nose and started the car.
Lin Tang turned around and looked at the white continental car that looked like ceramic texture in the sun, heading towards the gate, and walked back to the base for a while.
The sun is shining behind me, and the blooming lotus magnolia is as white as snow, reflecting the sunshine, so beautiful that it is dazzling.
No matter how smart or sensitive Jiang Lingxi is, she is just a young girl who has been born in a wealthy family and has never been in love since childhood. She has the limitations of her growing environment, age and experience in terms of her views on many things.
Similarly, this limitation naturally exists in Lintang.
Since they met, the progress of the two has always exceeded the progress of "normal love". Both of them are not used to it, but this discomfort is overwhelmed by the rapidly heating up relationship.
Neither of the two people in love had any awareness or thoughts to step on the brakes. Until this time, "Meet the parents" who far exceeded the normal progress of the relationship, he once again led to Lin Tang's constant heart disease: inferiority.
This is naturally related to Jiang Lingyue, but it is not because of the so-called vulgar "give you five million to leave my sister", but because of Jiang Lingyue's sincerity and enthusiasm.
Judging from the meeting, at least Jiang Lingyue really only hopes that Jiang Lingxi will live a happy life, so she does not have many "secular" requirements for her to fall in love. As he said, "It is enough that she likes and likes her."
Perhaps he could see his sister's love for Lin Tang, and he could also detect Lin Tang's feelings for Jiang Lingxi. During the whole meal, Jiang Lingyue showed an attitude of hoping that his sister would be able to work together until she was old for the first time. For this reason, he took good care of Lin Tang's feelings and made some suggestions on Lin Tang's personal future.
These suggestions make sense.
Rationally speaking, Lin Tang agrees with this, but emotionally he has an uncontrollable rebellious mind.
This is due to the memory of being dominated by his parents since childhood, and also to the instinctive reaction between him and his parents who almost "completely fall out" because of career.
The most important thing is that because he thinks he is "not worthy of" Jiang Lingxi, Jiang Lingyue's performance is interpreted in his eyes as "even if Jiang Lingyue is a good brother-in-law, even if Jiang Lingyue's standard for falling in love with his sister is 'If her character is not bad, she likes her, it's enough'. He also thinks that he is just a game player and is not worthy of his sister. So he hopes that he can make good plans for his life and continue to move forward in the future. Don't just play games all the time, or play games for his sister who works for his sister."
This idea naturally has an extreme element, but from a realistic perspective, it is not unreasonable.
Jiang Lingyue can accept that his sister has such a boyfriend, but he may not accept that his sister's boyfriend has always been at this level.
Then it is highly likely that the attitude of Jiang’s father and mother, who have a higher vision, is not difficult to speculate.
The overlap of the two situations makes Lin Tang easily find the scene when his parents accused him of "what can you do when playing games?"
So, he broke his defense.
Reason made him restrain himself from venting the Nujiang Lingxi, because it was not her fault, and he also tried very hard to hide this mentality.
But... Jiang Lingxi seems to have this kind of "talent" that can accurately detect his subtle emotional changes.
She discovered it.
And he thought his unhappiness was directly related to this meal.
Because she did not have the idea of looking down on her family or money, and Lin Tang's always "iron-solid" image, the real reason why Lin Tang's depressed was that she was outside her cognitive range, and she never thought that Lin Tang would have such a mentality.
This misunderstanding led to her next misunderstanding: "My brother is so good to you, and he did nothing wrong, why are you angry?"
This further triggered her heart disease.
She once said to him in the letter, "I am not that good", not self-mood, but a fact. For example, when dealing with people, she is actually far from being as mature as she shows in front of him.
Or, she could just take everything for granted when facing him because she was sincere.
So she doesn't care what others think, doesn't care about the so-called rules and precautions in love, and doesn't even care about "reservedness". She just changed some names and wrapped herself in a layer of sand, and could bury her head like an ostrich.
She didn't seem so free and easy, and she didn't care about what many girls care about, but was just buried in the sand.
Lin Tang's reaction made her feel aggrieved that "I will be looking at the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditches." The so-called deep love and deep responsibility, grievance and sadness caused her worries to become emotions, and it further amplified and exploded.
The sand was lifted up,
If you have been in love for a while, you will have more understanding and adaptation between each other - this can be called the "inertia" in love. At least between them, this matter is not difficult to solve.
Now, in addition to their favorability for each other, the two are still taking notes on what each other likes to eat and wear, which is really just in the initial stage of love.
But at this time, I started to touch on the concepts, family backgrounds and other issues that are difficult to completely avoid even for many years. There is no doubt that there are too many levels of progress and they are not mature in their relationships. This will lead to such things, so it is not difficult to understand.
Of course, quarrels are a very normal thing in love, and sometimes they are not a bad thing.
It is better to quarrel and get closer than to be separated in silence.
Even during the quarrel, both of them were trying to give each other a way and a chance, such as long-term silence, which was more like "I'll give you a proof that it's not the case" and "I'll wait for you to explain that this is a misunderstanding."
