Chapter 122: Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(11)
World Five. Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(11)
Xue Xue left with a natural and unrestrained posture.
Xi Lang waited until the woman's back completely disappeared from him before he finally came back to his senses.
He opened his hands and looked at his empty fingers. The trace left from wearing a ring for a long time had faded away at some point, along with the ring that had disappeared into the trash after he regained his bachelorhood, as if to tell him that nothing could come back.
But
The sudden ringing of the phone interrupted Xi Lang's thoughts.
"Hello?"
When the man picked up the phone and heard the sobbing voice on the other end, he frowned.
Xue Xue naturally didn't know about Xi Lang's phone call from Yang Keqing, but after saying those few words to Xi Lang, she felt extraordinarily relieved.
There was this feeling of joy that resembled when someone who has not seen the sun for a long time suddenly sees the bright sunshine.
Xue Xue thought that this was probably Xue Ning's mood.
In that fire, not only Xue Ning's life was burned, but also her unrequited love for Xi Lang.
Xue Ning actually figured it out. When the two divorced, she blamed her own obstinacy for the failure of the marriage, so she didn't complain or hate, but silently hid her strong feelings deep in her heart and savored them alone.
However, when the two of them became entangled again, Xi Lang could be said to have been distracted by Yang Keqing. From an unreasonable decision to doing all the harmful things, the most innocent person in this process was probably Xue Ning.
Xi Lang's inferiority was brought out thoroughly. After he gradually discovered the importance of Xue Ning to him, he was unwilling to let her go, but he was also attracted by Yang Keqing and could not extricate himself.
A greedy man who wanted both the white moonlight and cinnabar mole.
[T/N: Both of them usually refers to the unforgettable women in a man's life. White moonlight is usually the pure and introverted, gentle and virtuous one and cinnabar mole is the charming, and stunning woman.]
In the end, it hurt Xue Ning who chose to stay time and again because of her softheartedness.
Time seemed to have stood still at this moment.
At least in Xue Xue's eyes.
The young man who had been standing upright, like he was holding on to something, suddenly collapsed his shoulders and slowly turned his body in the direction of Xue Xue.
Xue Xue finally saw his face clearly.
However, before she could discern the impressive looks, her attention fell on the man's eyes.
Those were a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes.
Even if it looks bleak, both the curvature of the eyelids and the depth of the eye sockets were just right for Xue Xue, and only two words could describe it.
Especially the color of the pupils.
When a beam of sunlight came in from the window, the man didn't notice it, but Xue Xue clearly saw the bright luster that seemed to be embedded with countless broken diamonds.
Deja Vu.
But she was pretty sure she hadn't seen him.
When Xie Conglu changed out of his work clothes and walked to the place where his motorcycle was parked, a woman was standing there.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and intuition told him that the other party was waiting for him.
He was sure.
Xue Xue looked at the man who came over.
He should be only in his twenties. His hair was cut short, his face was gentle, his facial features were straight, and he has a pair of stunning peach blossom eyes under his frowning brows. Probably because he has been depressed for a long time, his whole temperament looked a bit more depressed than what she saw in the restaurant.
He stared at Xue Xue closely, as if he was on guard.
"Who are you?"
"You need money, right?"
