Today, Chen Shan had already called Qin Zhiyuan dozens of times. From the morning to the afternoon, Chen Shan was really unwilling to forgive him. Just as he was about to get off work, Qin Zhiyuan took off the white coat and his cell phone rang again.
"What's the matter?" Qin Zhiyuan was still worrying about the matter regarding the pomegranate.
When Chen Shan heard this, he couldn't help but look at the phone beside his ear. After confirming that it was Qin Zhiyuan, he asked, "Did you eat gunpowder?"
"If there's nothing wrong, I'll be hanging up!" Qin Zhiyuan was not in the mood to chat with Chen Shan today. Just as he was about to hang up, Chen Shan's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Wait, brother, it's your birthday today. You didn't forget, right?"
Only then did Qin Zhiyuan remember that today was Chen Shan's birthday. He raised his head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I've had too many things to do recently. I'm a bit confused!"
"I'm still at the same place, come over earlier!" While he was speaking, someone called out to Chen Shan. He replied, "Wait a moment!"
When Qin Zhiyuan heard this, he felt like it came from Dong Zi, "Dong Zi?"
"Yes, he came back from abroad, and Dong Zi also brought someone here, you know that person!" Chen Shan became more cautious as she spoke, afraid that Qin Zhiyuan would be angered by the slightest deviation in his words.
Qin Zhiyuan thought about it, "She's back?"
"Dong Zi brought it. I didn't call her over. Zhiyuan, if you really don't want to see her, then come back another day!" Chen Shan said this because he was afraid that they would feel awkward.
Who would have thought that Qin Zhiyuan would say, "I haven't seen her for a while, so it's fine to meet her tonight. After all, we used to be friends!"
He said this casually, and when he hung up on Chen Shan, his whole person was in a bad state. At that time, he happily received her back and even introduced her to everyone at the South Opening Hospital. At that time, he had already decided to propose to Yang Ziyun, and on the day when the two of them went to buy a ring, she suddenly told him, "Zhiyuan, let's break up!"
They had been together for six years, and everything had happened in the wind and the rain. He kept saying to her, "Caiyun, this is the year I'm going back to California with you, after I finish my year here in the South."
He had already made the biggest concession possible. He was willing to give up his operating table for her, but the answer he got was still the same, "Zhiyuan, we won't be able to go back. Really!"
At that time, Yang Caiyun didn't tell Qin Zhiyuan the real reason why she wanted to break up with him. It was only later on that Qin Zhiyuan found out that an American was crazily pursuing her and promised to build her an institute in California as long as she was willing to stay with him.
To be honest, this kind of condition was undoubtedly the best for Yang Ziyun, who wholeheartedly wanted to do research. Qin Zhiyuan really gave up in the end and cut off all contact with Yang Ziyun. For this reason, he used his cellphone number that had been used for many years to live a drunken life with Chen Shan.
Right now, the person who had said that he would leave had suddenly returned. Qin Zhiyuan really didn't know whether he should go see her or not. After thinking for a long time, he finally made up his mind. No matter what, he would have to face the consequences sooner or later.
He had just driven to the hospital when he turned his head and caught a glimpse of pomegranate and another girl in the rearview mirror. The two of them were in high spirits. Qin Zhiyuan was curious.
He deliberately parked in front of the South Drive hospital and waited for Pomegranate and Enron to come over and take them to the commercial street.
It was already half an hour since they had arrived at the same place as Chen Shan.
"Zhiyuan, why are you so late?" As Chen Shan spoke, he walked over and put his hand on Qin Zhiyuan's shoulder. Leaning on him, he whispered, "That Cai Yun and Dong Zi are inside. Would you like to go in first?"
"No need."
Qin Zhiyuan strode inside.
"Zhiyuan," The one who spoke was Dong Zi. He saw Qin Zhiyuan waving his hand, "Long time no see. You look even more spirited than before!"
Qin Zhiyuan smiled, "Dong Zi, you're not bad too. When did you return to C City?" As he spoke, he took a seat at the side.
"Just a few days ago." Dong Zi turned his head to look at the silent Yang Ziyun, "I didn't expect to bump into her when I came back, so I brought her for you!"
At this moment, Yang Ziyun raised her head to look at Qin Zhiyuan, who was also looking at her, "Are you okay?"
"As you can see, I'm fine! It's good to eat, drink and have fun! " Even Dong Zi, who was sitting beside her, could no longer stand it, "What are you two doing?"
Dong Zi did not know that Yang Caiyun and Qin Zhiyuan had broken up. He looked at the two of them and then looked at his host Chen Shan, "Brother Shan, say something!"
Chen Shan lowered his head to look at Qin Zhiyuan, who was sitting beside him. He pulled Dong Zi, who was standing beside him, over, "Come, let's go to the washroom!"
Dong Zi didn't understand, so he struggled to get away, "Bro, I don't have that kind of hobby. It's better if you let me go!"
Chen Shan looked at Dong Zi and then at the two of them. "Go to the passageway and smoke a cigarette. I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to talk to you."
Dong Zi only just reacted at this moment.
"Alright, I'll go with you. Cai Yun, Zhi Yuan, we'll be right back!"
"Let's go, what should we look at?" Chen Shan pulled Dong Zi, who looked up at him, "Brother Shan, I really don't know about the two of them …"
"Alright, stop talking, let's go!"
After a long while, neither of them spoke. Qin Zhiyuan drank two cups of tea in succession and was about to pour them again, but was pulled back by Yang Ziyun, who was sitting beside him. She raised her eyes and looked at him, "Zhiyuan, have you been well these past few days?"
Qin Zhiyuan shook off Yang Ziyun's hand and looked at her coldly, "I'm fine."
"Is there nothing else you want to say to me?" Yang Ziyun stared fixedly at Qin Zhiyuan, his head lowered. He didn't even glance at her, "I've already told you everything that I had to say two years ago. There's nothing much to say now!"
"Zhiyuan, I regret it!" This was what Yang Ziyun said after a long while, "I can't lie to myself. I still have you in my heart. I came back this time to find you!"
Just as Yang Ziyun finished speaking, Qin Zhiyuan stood up from his chair, lowered his eyes, and looked at her coldly, "Yang Ziyun, what kind of person do you think I, Qin Zhiyuan, is? If you want to, you can have it. If you want to, you can throw it away. Sorry, I can't accept that!"
After saying that, Qin Zhiyuan picked up the briefcase and was about to leave. Who knew that Yang Ziyun, who was originally sitting well, would suddenly hug Qin Zhiyuan from behind. For some reason, she started to cry.
"Zhiyuan, don't go. I know I was wrong. I've already broken up with Smith and rejected his proposal. I'm going to quit my job in California and return to C City to stay with you!"
Yang Ziyun kept talking. Every time Qin Zhiyuan heard her, he felt that he was being ridiculous. He was like a person who was ready to sacrifice himself for her. As long as she was willing, he would immediately go.
They had lived like this for six years, and although it wasn't bad, they had never seen a good life before. The current Qin Zhiyuan was sick of that kind of life, so he didn't want to go back to the past. If she had placed him in a very important position, then she wouldn't have refused his proposal and left with an American she hadn't known for two months.
These six years of love had already become a thing of the past for him. Whether it was him or Yang Ziyun, both of them could not return to their original spots. He was worried that as long as he relented and promised her, she would abandon everything and leave again.
"Sorry, I can't accept it!" As he spoke, Qin Zhiyuan lowered his head, opened up the arms around his chest, and strode out.
He heard Yang Ziyun say, "I won't give up. I'll definitely come back and stay with you again. Zhiyuan, I know you haven't forgotten me. Otherwise, why haven't you made a new girlfriend for so long?"
He didn't turn around because of her words, he thought he needed to calm down. He took out his phone from his pocket and sent a message to Chen Shan, then he called Zhao Lei. "No matter what happens today, don't call me!"
Zhao Lei felt it was strange, but he didn't dare to ask any further. After hanging up the phone, Qin Zhiyuan switched off his phone.
He was driving around alone. He had no purpose, no direction, and he didn't even know where he was going!
In his mind, he kept thinking about what Yang Ziyun had said just now. He did not find a new girlfriend, and that's right, he did not! Why, was he really waiting for her return like Yang Ziyun had said?
Just as this thought popped into Qin Zhiyuan's mind, he felt extremely frantic. He stepped on the throttle and the car started to run crazily.
Unknowingly, he drove the car to the front of his house. Qin Zhiyuan looked up and saw that the house was still the same house. However, the person inside was no longer the same person as before.
Back at the apartment, Qin Zhiyuan found some wine, red, white, and beer. As long as he could numb his nerves, he used them all. He raised his hand to finish the last drop of wine in the bottle. Surprisingly, he was not drunk. Instead, the memory of his face became clearer and clearer.
Qin Zhiyuan turned his head to the side and looked at the messy bottle. He slowly lay down along the edge of the sofa. When he came in contact with the cold floor, he couldn't help but curl up into a ball and shut his eyes, waiting for the alcohol to show its desired effect.
The last bit of moonlight in the room dimmed due to the delay of time. Originally, pomegranate wanted to accompany An Ran to Qin Zhiyuan's house after dinner. However, An Ran kept pestering her, afraid that she would reveal the matter of her doing chores for Qin Zhiyuan.
After accompanying An Ran back to the southern hospital, he borrowed Zhao Lei to say that he had something to do with her, then only then did the pomegranate slip out of the dorm.
When they arrived at Qin Zhiyuan's house, pomegranate leaned its ear against the door and listened. After hearing nothing, it inserted the key into the keyhole and walked in.
The light in the room was quite dim. From far away, pomegranate could smell a pungent smell. It couldn't help but reach its hand along the wall. 'Pata!' A loud sound was heard. The pomegranate saw a shocking scene.
