Chapter 768 - Why Was It So Difficult to Forget Someone? (2/2)

The intimidating look on Xiao Yi’s face was still there and he pinched between his eyebrows and replied faintly, “Someone asking for directions.”

Xia Yanran heard Xiao Yi’s answer.

Her heart sank uncontrollably.

As she lowered her eyes, her expression was slightly dark.

But then, she scolded herself.

They had already broken up, could she still expect him to only have her in his eyes like before?

When she was just getting to know him, she felt that he was like a devil and irritating. She even hoped he would die.

But when she realized her feelings towards him, they could only go on different paths and live their own separate lives!

It wasn’t as if she wanted to be entangled with him, she just wanted him to say something nice in front of Elder Dong.

Xia Yanran closed her eyes and a bitter feeling sprouted in her heart.

…

When she returned to the apartment, Nan Zhi had already woken up.

Xia Yanran touched her forehead and noticed that her fever had subsided.

“You drank in the evening?” Nan Zhi went to the kitchen to make some honey water.

Xia Yanran looked at the honey water handed to her by Nan Zhi. She drank a few mouthfuls and could not help holding Nan Zhi’s arm, putting her head against her shoulder. “Nan Zhi, I saw Xiao Yi just now.”

Xiao Yi?

Nan Zhi instinctively thought of the man she saw at Elder Dong’s house.

“He was your first love?”

“No, he’s my second boyfriend.” Xia Yanran leaned against Nan Zhi’s shoulder, looking at the ceiling and mumbled, “My relations.h.i.+p with my first boyfriend had just gotten stable and he ruined it. I really hated him before, but then some things happened and I found myself in love with him.”

Nan Zhi listened quietly and could feel Xia Yanran’s sadness.

“But he and I chose different paths. He’s from the mafia, and would lose his life anytime if he was careless. We hadn’t even started properly and it ended, just like that.”

Nan Zhi embraced Xia Yanran and comforted her for a while.

Those on different paths could not lay plans for one another.

Even though she was Yanran’s good friend and could feel her love for Xiao Yi, she also disapproved of them being together.

After all, they were people from different worlds.

“I even saw the fiancée he was getting engaged to. She was tall and beautiful. If I were a man, I would be moved by her too!”

Xia Yanran sniffed. “Why is it so painful when I mention him? I just want to go out and vent it out!”

Nan Zhi replied, “Shall we go to the beach and shout a few times?”

“But I want to go to the bar.”

She wanted to get drunk and maybe when she was drunk she would be able to meet a handsome, wealthy and domineering president like in love stories?

Even if she didn’t, it was good to drink, dance and sweat it out.

Before Nan Zhi could say anything, Xia Yanran went into her room.

After a while, she came out in a white s.h.i.+rt and skinny jeans. Standing in front of Nan Zhi, Xia Yanran turned around. “Is it okay to go like this?”

Xia Yanran was born with a beautiful face and was youthful and bright, she looked good in whatever she wore. Nan Zhi stood up from the sofa. “I’ll be worried if you go alone, I’ll go with you!”

…

Xia Yanran also invited Xia Xi out and when she saw Nan Zhi, Xia Xi jumped about happily.

The three of them found seats and sat down. Xia Yanran ordered a dozen beers. “Zhizhi, you have a cold so you can’t drink. I’ll drink with Xia Xi.”
