Defeated By Love - Chapter 21

Xie Ruhe paused for a few seconds, then gave another hum.

Shunen’s guilty conscience dissipated a bit and said, “Then I will bring it to you in a while.”

Xie Ruhe asked: “When?”

“I’m out now…” Shunian said, suggesting, “Then I will buy it now?”

Xie Ruhe’s voice was clearly brighter: “Okay.”

Shunen put down the phone, checked the time, and said, “I used to be about an hour or so, around seven o’clock. It’s not that fast, you can eat first.”

Xie Ruhe did not respond to her words, but repeated: “Today is December 31.”

Such words and emotions are inexplicable, and they want to keep their last bit of face, so they didn’t directly say the phrase “today is my birthday”.

“…” Shunen said, “Then wait a minute, I will try to be as fast as possible.”

“Great.”

After hanging up the phone, Shunen looked up, and suddenly remembered that he was still talking to Xu Zeyuan just now, and he seemed to say something the same as “want to get together”.

Xu Zeyuan’s expression was a little unnatural, he looked at her phone and asked, “Ahe?”

Shunen looked down at the toe of the shoe, did not answer his question, and did not mention what he just said: “You go back. I have something to do, I will leave first.”

But Xu Zeyuan didn’t want to assume that nothing happened. He clenched his fists and reminded her stiffly: “Shunen, you haven’t responded to what I just said.”

“What, do you mean you regret it?” Shunen looked up at him and said calmly, “I said, it’s normal to break up. This is your right.”

Xu Zeyuan opened his mouth and wanted to say something.

The next moment, Shunen pursed her lips, and said, “But, it doesn’t mean I won’t mind.”

This was like a slap on Xu Zeyuan’s face, making all the people he just said like a joke. He was speechless, stepped back, and laughed like a mockery.

Shunen said no more: “Goodbye.”

Xu Zeyuan opened his mouth suddenly and whispered: “If you said at that time that you didn’t want to split, I would definitely not break up with you. But you didn’t mention it.”

“…”

“You don’t like me that much.”

“…”

Shunen is thin and small, wrapped in a big coat, and his chin is hidden in a scarf, as if the wind will blow away. Her face turned pale, she had never thought that he could say such a thing, and she paused for half a minute before she recovered.

In fact, she didn’t want to mention the past at all, and she always classified the breakup with Xu Zeyuan as-“peaceful breakup”, “good to get together, good to go”.

Even if he meets again, he assumes that nothing has happened, looking for a sense of presence in front of him, Shunen never wants to accuse him.

She can no longer think about the past.

I hope it is past.

But in the end he put the responsibility on her.

Suddenly, Shunen burst into flames, and squeezed the flesh of his palm with his nails, unceremoniously, repeating what he heard or saw at the beginning.

“Shunen is too pitiful.”

“It feels like…what do you think…”

“Xu Zeyuan is also very miserable. After chasing Shunen for so long, he hasn’t done anything yet…”

At that time, Xu Zeyuan’s decision was irrelevant to him, and it might make his situation easier. However, the guesswork of others has been implemented.

Let Shunian live in the sympathetic gaze of others, and the scars were uncovered time and time again because of their behavior. Let her rely on herself in the days when she needs the company of others the most.

Xu Zeyuan’s face changed.

Shunian couldn’t speak anymore, staring at him, her voice trembling: “So, when you heard these words, then you broke up with me. Was it because I didn’t like you that much?”

Not far away, a car parked on the side of the road.

In the car, Fang Wencheng looked bored at his mobile phone, and didn’t know where Xie Ruhe was at fault, so he drove to Shunian’s home for a walk if he had nothing to do.

And even if she met Shunian by chance, Xie Ruhe would not get out of the car to meet her. But it won’t be like the first time, let Fang Wencheng drive along with her stupidly, and will leave after watching her for a while.

This time, Shunian happened to be talking with another man on the side of the road.

Fang Wencheng can probably recognize that man is Xu Zeyuan, a singer who has been hot recently.

From seeing this scene, the air pressure inside the car became extremely low, and Fang Wencheng was completely afraid to speak. Before long, Xie Ruhe couldn’t control himself, so he called Shunian with a hard tone, which seemed extremely unhappy.

After hanging up the phone, he still counted blankly. The sound was very low, but Fang Wencheng could still hear it clearly in this small space.

“One minute.”

“Two minutes.”

“three.”

“Three and a half minutes.”

“…”

After a while, Xie Ruhe didn’t continue to report the count, and murmured, “Is she unhappy?”

Hearing this, Fang Wencheng also looked over the car window. From this angle, you can only see Xu Zeyuan’s back and Shunen’s small face. The distance is not too close, and he can’t see Shunen’s expression at all.

“…How can this be clearly seen.”

Xie Ruhe didn’t speak, just opened the door, installed the dismantled wheelchair, put it outside, and easily moved his body from the car to the wheelchair.

Fang Wencheng was stunned, and quickly got out of the car: “Master, do you want me to come with you?”

Xie Ruhe ignored him.

On the contrary, Fang Wencheng was happy and returned to the car happily to continue playing with his mobile phone.

Shunian was really inspired by Xu Ze.

I only think that he can turn white into black, thinking that after a long time, what happened at the beginning will become another thing. Judging from his expression, he seemed to think that was the case, and the problem was entirely with her.

After two years, Shunen had thought very clearly that none of those were true, and she actually didn’t need to care.

She can’t control other people’s mouths.

But not caring, does not mean I want to interact with them again.

After Shunen finished saying that, Xu Zeyuan’s whole person froze, his Adam’s apple rolled down, and he apologized with difficulty: “Sorry, I am not…”

Before he finished speaking, Shunen sighed and turned to continue walking.

Nor did he hear Xu Zeyuan catching up again.

Because of this episode, Shunen’s mood was much worse, and he lowered his head and kicked the pebble on the ground. Soon, she suddenly remembered buying cakes for Xie Ruhe.

After thinking about it, Shunian decided to buy cakes here and take the subway to Xie Ruhe’s house.

She raised her foot and walked in the direction of the cake shop.

At the same time, the sound of wheels rubbing against the ground sounded behind him.

Shunen felt that the voice was inexplicably familiar. He looked back and was taken aback: “Why are you here?”

Xie Ruhe moved her wheelchair to her side: “It just happened to be nearby.”

Shunen guessed: “Come out and buy cakes?”

Xie Ruhe didn’t answer this question, he hesitated and said, “I just seemed to see you and,” When he said this, he paused, and his voice also sank: “You and Xu Zeyuan are talking.”

“you saw it?”

“Well, you know him?”

Shunen is honest: “I’ve been with him before.”

“…” Xie Ruhe’s eyes darkened, as he imagined such a picture, the muscles on his face couldn’t help but twitched, and soon returned to normal, “What did he ask you to do.”

Mentioning this, Shunen frowned: “I think my temper is already very good.”

Not knowing why she got involved here, Xie Ruhe looked at her: “Huh?”

“I rarely lose my temper.” Shunen said with a straight face, “Xie Ruhe. You said, I am such a good-tempered person who can be irritated by others, that person should be too much.”

Xie Ruhe, who has angered her so many times: “…”

Without a response, Shunen turned his head and stared at him: “Why don’t you speak.”

Xie Ruhe was quiet for a few seconds and replied obediently, “Well, too much.”

Shunen’s expression was a little better, and he was venting his anger. She stopped talking about this and asked him: “Shall we go buy a Black Forest cake?”

Xie Ruhe nodded: “Okay.”

“Or do you want something else?”

“This is fine.”

Walked a short distance.

Xie Ruhe asked softly: “Can I ask you for a birthday wish?”

Hearing this, Shunen looked down at him: “Yes, what do you want?”

Xie Ruhe also raised his head, with bangs covering his eyebrows, deep eye sockets, and three-dimensional outlines of facial features. The expression was slightly gloomy, and he sat there quietly, like a handsome young man.

“Don’t like him.”

Shunian didn’t understand his words for a while: “Don’t like who?”

Xie Ruhe lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Shunen thought about it and guessed: “Xu Zeyuan?”

Xie Ruhe responded lowly.

“You waste it like this.” Shunen said seriously, “I didn’t like him anymore.”

Hearing this, Xie Ruhe’s eyelashes moved, and he murmured: “It’s not a waste.”

Shunen couldn’t hear clearly: “What?”

Xie Ruhe changed his mouth and said, “Then I will change another.”

Shunen has a good temper: “Yes.”

Xie Ruhe didn’t expect any wishes for a while, and he didn’t say anything.

Shunen didn’t urge him, and waited patiently.

The two entered a cake shop.

It was too late to make new ones. Shunian pointed out a few of Xie Ruhe in the ready-made cakes. But he didn’t seem to care too much, and all listened to her opinions.

It was decided soon.

Xie Ruhe held the cake box, Shunian pushed him out.

Shunen asked: “Shall we go to your house now? Take the subway?”

Xie Ruhe said absently, “Fang Wencheng is nearby.”

Shunian responded.

Walking out of this street and turning a corner, there are fewer and fewer pedestrians.

The dim yellow street lamp, the aunt selling roasted sweet potatoes on the street, the branches rustled by the wind, and the sound of wheels sliding on the concrete floor.

In this quiet atmosphere, Xie Ruhe suddenly stopped the wheelchair with his hand. He turned with one hand and turned the wheelchair around, looking directly at Shunen.

Because of his sudden movement, Shunen blinked, “What’s the matter?”

Xie Ruhe licked his lips, his eyes were clear and clean, it was all her. Afterwards, he clearly said: “I want you—”

A cold wind blew through and poured into the pores along the gaps in the clothes.

Shunen’s heart beats hard.

It’s like a while, and it’s like a blink of an eye,

Xie Ruhe coughed and lowered his eyes unnaturally. It looked like a balloon filled with air, but was poked a hole in an instant, and the courage disappeared.

His Adam’s apple slid, and then finished the previous words: “When you have time, you can accompany me to recover.”

Shunian returned to his senses, ah, and wondered: “Why?”

Xie Ruhe didn’t look at her and said something inaudible.

“This is more motivated.”
