C93 (1/2)

Li Jiarui's name jumped on the screen of my phone. I hesitated for a long time but couldn't pick up the phone, thinking, what's the point of her calling me now?

For some reason, I didn't have the courage to pick up her phone.

I don't know if I'm afraid to hear her voice or if I'm afraid to hear anything else.

I had imagined it countless times in my heart. If Li Jiarui were to call me at this time to ask for peace and beg for my forgiveness, what kind of attitude would I use to face her?

She is my first love, it would be false to say I don't like her, but I also know what the present situation is, I just have a bit of nostalgia for the past feelings.

I thought about it for a long time, then picked it up.

”Zhang Wen, what are you hesitating for? ”What, you don't dare to pick up my phone?”

I said, ”What do you want?”

”Hehe, it's nothing much. I just want to tell you, don't be too arrogant. Don't think that we are all afraid of you. Let me tell you, the time you took care of me, I will return it sooner or later!”

”Sure, just come any way you want. I'll be waiting for you here anyways, you know where my restaurant is.”

”Alright, then just you wait …”

Listening to the sharp and harsh voice on the phone, for a moment I couldn't believe that it was Li Jiarui. How could such a simple and beautiful girl turn out like this?

Or rather, she was such a girl, but I never noticed it.

”Li Jiarui, why did you become like this?” I blurted out the words uncontrollably.

She, who was hysterical on the phone and was about to argue with me, fell silent.

The empty phone was filled with the sound of her breathing.

The engine was still idling.

After a long while, Li Jiarui finally spoke.

”Don't you know why? Other than you, who else could it be? ” With that, she hung up the phone.

My heart sank with it.

If Li Jiarui didn't have me in her heart, then how could she have changed so much because of me? Why would they sleep with Chen Nan just to play with me? It might be a bit too much to say that it was all to avenge me.

It was more appropriate to say that he hated her because of her love.

I was stunned for a moment and then went back to the hotel.

Today, the Boss Wang gave me a few phone calls and asked me what I was doing. The restaurant was very busy, and he even said that he wanted to give me more money.

I know that Boss Wang was just testing me when he said these words, but he might not be so confident as well, as if he wanted to probe what I had been doing these past two days.

But I didn't say anything about the knife.

In the workshop's office, Boss Wang put down the phone, his fingers lightly tapped the table as he entered into deep thought.

When he received Boss Du's phone call, he knew that his business deal with his must have gone bad, causing him to lose more than 500,000 yuan.

However, he could not see the money, so he did not think too much about it. However, what bothered him was the sudden change in the attitude of the Boss Du.

Could it be that it was because of Zhang Wen?

But when he called Zhang Wen just now, he also tentatively asked. Recently, Zhang Wen had been working in a restaurant and there wasn't anything else, was it because he didn't pay for the medical treatment?

But that night, he had someone deliver it and even sent someone to take a look at the two injured people. He even secretly stuffed some money in.

This already gave the Boss Du a lot of face, what more did he want?
