Chapter 16 (1/2)
Jiang Chen emptied the bento box in less than ten minutes, after which, he even bossed me to throw it out when he was done As I was outside, carrying the plastic bag with ain while she was taking out the trash, she greeted ift’ been sent out?
Her voice calling irl made my heart feel very comfortable with her, hence I replied truthfully, ”Actually, I didn't co his meal”
She insisted, ”Did Doctor Jiang give you a scolding? Don't be scared, no fa or old, who isn’t suffering fro to the doctor so your heart would feel at ease, I've been working in this hospital for quite a few decades, I've seen this scenario countless times, rest assured I will not run my mouth”
I gave it a thought, if I didn’t explain things clearly, it would surely tarnish Jiang Chen’sI really don't care about, what I couldn't take was how this auntie indirectly cursed my family, so I said withand I used to be a couple, and until now there's still a bit of affectionate ties”
The auntie looked at me, clearly a little bit taken aback, and then sizedtih and wheeled the trash away Right before leaving, she et her mental illness looked at”
When I returned to Jiang Chen's office, he was engrossed in writing so, I walked over and knocked on the table hence he looked up
I told hi home”
Jiang Chen's right hand was holding the pen, scribbling on his notepad, his other hand was used to turn over its leaves, he said with nonchalance, ”Chen Xiaoxi, if you walk out that door right noe're over”
I thought that the content of his words sounded very intense, it should have been expressed with feelings likened to waves surging forth, yet he said it so flatly like stagnant water, all was said in one breathe without any slight pauses, one can seriously consider this as a talent
I was standing He was sitting But even though I was towering over hiround a little bit I was looking at hih ere so close, I couldn't even guess what's going through his mind
I said, ”There's no need to put it so seriously, I just saw that you were quite busy, didn't want to disturb you”
Jiang Chen's fountain pen irling between his fingers, he said, ”Doctor Su toldto clear the air, so I'll ht noell, and you can leave when you're done listening
I sed a lump in my throat, and let out an ”en” to indicate that I was fine with it
He asked, ”Three years ago, it was you who suggested of breaking up, right?”
I replied yes
He added, ”The reason of our breaking up was because of ht?”
I replied yes, but immediately took it back and said it also doesn't seem to be it, and that actually I wasn't too sure of what I've said
He threw the pen on the table with a thuhtened all of a sudden, that's probably a very expensive Parker pen
He pinched the bridge of his nose, and said with a hint of weariness, ”Chen Xiaoxi, tell ht about me in the past three years?
This conversation was fast beco e on so
The first week after I broke up with Jiang Chen, alht, I would suddenly rouse fro on my moist cheek and neck, when I'd touch my pillow, and the chest area of my duvet with my hand, it would feel wet
It was too painful forhied……
As a , I stood across the hospital, around lunch ti until they arrived at a small restaurant nearby to have theirface from afar, I could even see his dimple, filled with such radiance I felt hatred, I felt bitterly disappointed, I felt so foolish, I thought I should have rushed to the et run over by a car, I don’t believe that he would still be able to continue eating his ht next to my blood
At that tih my mind, but in the end, I chose to return home – I wanted to buy a pineapple bun at the bakery downstairs but probably because I was crying so hard which astounded the world, it frightened the kind-hearted lady boss who gave me three instead, and even told me how there's no difficulties in life that one couldn't overcole day to cheat her on those bread (T/N: Used when a person's words and/or actions are unusual that most people are shocked)
Longing for sos Sofor someone I’ve always said I was never a brave person, I’ towards him in a box, and affixed a seal, “If you dare open this you will suffer in pain to death, serves you right”
It was truly effective, hence, I haven't thought about him
Jiang Chen hit the table impatiently, the tone of his voice was harder, ”Is the question really so difficult”
I was suddenly filled with hate that could topple the mountains and overturn the seas, I doubled my fist, clenched my teeth very fiercely, and spat out a word, “Difficult”
He sneered, ”Chen Xiaoxi, why really are you so bold with your convictions?
