Qiao Muâs heart ached when she heard Chi Xiaâs cries. She finally understood what was going on. She didnât expect Gu Cheng to be such a jerk!
No one knew better than Qiao Mu how much Chi Xia liked Gu Cheng. In the face of such feelings, no words of comfort would work. Qiao Mu could only silently pat her back and cry with her.
After a long while, Chi Xia finally calmed down. Then, she became the calm Chi Xia again.
Chi Xia wiped away her tears and smiled nonchalantly. â Iâm fine now. Iâve thought it through these past few days. Since heâs not responsible for our relationship, thereâs nothing left for us to miss. â
Even though she said that, Qiao Mu looked at the smile on Chi Xiaâs face. It was uglier than crying.
Qiao Mu sighed. How did she manage to endure such a sudden blow these few days?
Chi Xia was emotionally unstable, so Qiao Mu could not leave. She took her phone to the bathroom to call Li Yan.
Soon, the call was connected, and the manâs voice was heard on the other end. âAre you done packing?â
Li Yan told her to pack her things and call him to pick her up.
Qiao Mu spoke in a low voice and discussed it nicely, ââUncle, I canât go back today. My friend has broken up with her boyfriend and is emotionally unstable. I want to stay and accompany her.â
After saying that, she was worried that he would not believe her, so she added,â Itâs Chi Xia. Youâve met her. Iâm not lying to you.
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone before Qiao Mu let out a sigh of relief after she heard an â mm â in an unpleasant tone.
On the other side, in the corridor of Glorious Dark Night.
Li Yan stopped walking towards the elevator. After hanging up the phone, he turned around and returned to the private room.
In the room, the three men were getting up from the mahjong table when they saw Li Yan, who had just gotten up and left after a phone call, return.
âBrother, arenât you leaving?â Lu Jingzhi asked.
âIâm not leaving. Letâs continue playing cards.â Li Yan sat down at the mahjong table.
After Chi Xia finished crying, she calmed down and stood up, ââMu Mu, letâs go out for a drink.â
Qiao Mu frowned slightly. Even though she knew that drinking wouldnât solve the problem, she could only agree to accompany Chi Xia to vent her frustrations when she saw how listless Chi Xia was when she was awake, as if she had lost her soul.
Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at Glorious Dark Night.
Qiao Mu and Li Yan had been here before, so they knew that the security system here was very good and that there would not be any chaos. Although the price was slightly higher, the safety of the two girls came first.
After booking the room, Chi Xia clinked her wine glass with Qiao Muâs. Her lips twitched as she revealed a bitter smile. â Mu Mu, celebrate my return to being single. From now on, I want to bid farewell to my past and have nothing to do with Gu Cheng anymore! â
The two of them clinked their glasses, and Qiao Mu nodded before saying very seriously, âXiaxia, youâll meet a better man! â
If Gu Cheng was a responsible man, he would have settled the issue of his fiancée before getting together with Chi Xia. A man like that was not worthy of Chi Xiaâs devotion.
Chi Xia raised her head and downed the wine in one gulp. She felt bitter in her heart.
Then, he drank one glass after another, as if he wanted to get drunk and relieve his worries.
Chi Xiaâs alcohol tolerance wasnât high. After two bottles of beer, her face had already turned red and her tensed nerves had relaxed.
She leaned back weakly on the sofa and smiled foolishly. â When Gu Cheng went abroad, although I rationally said that if we couldnât go on, we would break up, I never thought that we would end so quickly â¦. â
