The Ten Years of Rebirth

Chapter 312 The Overlapping Trajectories of Past Life

Just when Xu Xing's mind exploded, he thought Yan Chijiu was going to do something stupid, or it was just to avoid him.

The moment he rushed out of the office, he saw Yan Chijiu walking in with two cups of milk tea in his hands, so that he braked suddenly and almost fell to the ground.

"What's wrong with you?" Yan Chiji handed a cup of milk tea to Xu Xing, tilted his head and asked, "So urgent, what happened?"

"Uh..." Xu Xing took the milk tea and stared blankly at Yan Chijiu in front of him. The feeling of being on a roller coaster made his heart beat violently.

He looked at the milk tea in his hand and the resignation letter, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"This, who sent it?" Xu Xing held up the resignation application and asked.

"Me." Yanchi pursed his lips and smiled lightly, as if everything was normal, "I was going to tell you about this when you came back, but the takeaway milk tea I ordered arrived first, so I went to get it one time."

Xu Xing, who was originally relieved and thought that the application for resignation was from another employee, felt his heart hang again at this time: "Why did you suddenly think of resigning?"

Yan Chijiu didn't answer, but turned to look left and right, then pointed to the office: "Are you sure you want me to talk here? Go in first."

The two returned to the office and sat down on the sofa.

Yan Chi vinegar rarely sat on the single sofa, not sitting with Xu Xing.

Holding the milk tea in both hands, she took a small sip, her eyes fell on Xu Xing's letter, and she said: "Once I encounter something that catches me by surprise, I'm always not very good at talking, so I write down what I want to say in it." Alright, let's take a look first."

Facing Yan Chijiu in front of him, Xu Xing felt that she seemed to have "growth" suddenly.

She used to be shy and reserved in front of her, but today is different.

Xu Xing can't tell what it is, maybe it's temperament, maybe it's character, or it's behavior style or something like that.

But after thinking about it for a while, Xu Xing suddenly realized where his feelings came from.

The Yan Chi vinegar at this moment inexplicably made him feel like when he knew Yan Chi vinegar in his previous life.

Although there are not small differences, there is just a trace of similarity in charm.

"What are you looking at me for?" Yan Chijiu lowered his head and took a sip of milk tea, blinking and asked, "Let's take a look at the letter in your hand first."

"……it is good."

Xu Xing took a deep breath, and he probably realized something in his heart. When he opened the letter in his hand, he had already made mental preparations.

But the first sentence at the beginning was beyond his expectation, yet it made sense.

[That night, I actually didn’t fall asleep, I heard everything you said]

Just this sentence made Xu Xing subconsciously squeeze the paper tightly and his lips tight.

Although Yan Chijiu didn't specifically refer to that night, as long as he wasn't really stupid, he would know what she was referring to.

That is to say, as early as a month ago, Yan Chijiu already knew the truth of the matter.

I kept this thing in my heart for a whole month.

Only she knew the torment and struggle she had endured in her heart during this period.

[I have thought a lot this month. At the beginning, my head was very confused, and I still couldn't accept that such a thing happened to me.]

[But it really happened, and I can't escape or ignore it]

[At the beginning, I was just wronged and angry, feeling the pain of being betrayed, and I was in a trance]

【The person I trust and love the most, even if he is like this, I don’t know what else in this world can be trusted】

Xu Xing remained silent, just like the sadness he felt after telling Xu Nian the truth during the Chinese New Year.

It is difficult to have both in the world, and the result of wanting to have everything is often to hurt everything once.

It is possible to move forward only after smashing people's hearts into pieces, picking them up again, putting them together, and reshaping their concepts.

But what right did he have?

[But then the mood calmed down, and my heart softened again]

[If I think about it differently, I might understand Miss Niannian.]

[But when it comes to feelings, I am obviously your girlfriend, so why should I empathize with other women]

[This may sound cruel, but this is a normal thought]

[It is impossible for me to share my beloved with others just out of sympathy]

[But the crux of the matter is, Xu Xing, you have accepted Sister Niannian]

【Then what else can I do】

【Crying and begging you to drive sister Niannian away? 】

[I know that you will definitely not do this, and after chatting with sister Niannian last night, I understand that it is also very difficult for her to really leave your side]

[I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I don't know what to do]

【I just know that I can't stay by your side anymore, at least I have to find a place where I can't see you for a while, so I can calm myself down】

【So I decided to resign】

【Perhaps I will make a more rational decision after I calm down and re-examine myself and my relationship with you and sister Niannian】

【I hope you can respect me, just like you saved me from the Internet cafe back then】

There wasn't much content inside, but Xu Xing read it very carefully, and spent a full 10 minutes reading it back and forth three or four times.

After reading it, Xu Xing folded the letter and solemnly put it in his pocket, then picked up the cup of milk tea and took a big sip.

"After resigning, what are your plans?" Xu Xing asked, "The school is already on summer vacation, do you want to stay in school?"

"I don't know, maybe I'll go out and wander around."

"Then how do I contact you?"

"I hope you don't contact me." Yan Chi pursed his lips, then picked up his phone and shook it, "Of course, wechat is fine, isn't it? I'm not just childishly playing missing."

"Then we now..."

"Take it as a breakup." When Yan Chijiu said this, her speech speed was a little faster, her hands were tightly clutching her knees, as if she was afraid that she would regret it, "I'm sorry for myself. responsible for the decision.”

The atmosphere fell into silence again.

Xu Xing closed his eyes, leaned on the sofa, his thoughts were caught off guard by Yan Chijiu's sudden action.

But the matter has come to this point, and he seems to have no reason to stop her decision.

This is not some kind of domineering president's play, something that can be conquered by pressing her against the wall and having a kiss.

When he couldn't let go of the two girls, it was doomed that this kind of thing was likely to happen.

It's just that he had thought about what Jiujiu would do when he learned the truth.

Maybe she'll cry a lot, or find a place to hide.

But he never thought that it would be in the way it is today.

As if overnight, this girl suddenly changed a lot.

The intellectual and rational strong woman from the previous life actually appeared in front of me again through this method.

Although it cannot be said that the two are exactly alike, they are indeed very similar.

In her previous life, Yan Chijiu became like that, probably due to her mother making a big fuss in the Internet cafe, and finally being helped by Yao Yuanyuan and Pei Qinglan, and gradually formed a character.

In this life, Xu Xing stepped in to avoid Yan Chijiu's personality change, but now, a year later, he has completed a psychological transformation through this form.

Although this was not what Xu Xing wanted to see...but it was indeed brought about by him.

Xu Xing was silent, not knowing what to say, and finally he just said: "Let's have dinner together tonight."

"...I still don't need it." Yan Chijiu hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head and refused, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid that after dinner with you, I won't be willing to leave."

After finishing speaking, Yan Chijiu stood up, hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Xu Xing and hugged him.

She sniffed the scent on Xu Xing's body, and hugged him harder and harder, as if she wanted to fulfill all future hugs at once.

Finally, she made up her mind, immediately let go of her hands, turned around and walked out of the office quickly, not daring to give herself more time to be greedy for this warmth.

This time, Xu Xing didn't think about rushing out of the office as before, but leaned weakly on the sofa and looked up at the ceiling.

The life after rebirth has always been smooth sailing, and has never encountered a particularly big setback.

He originally thought that this life should be passed smoothly, but in the end he found that things were not always as he wished.

Life is wonderful because of its unknown, and it is also fragile because of this unknown.

Xu Xing thought that his life was already known, but now it seems that he was very wrong.

……

Downstairs in the Ocean International Building, Yan Chijiu sat in the back seat of a taxi.

Looking at the retrograde street scene and the distant buildings, Yan Chijiu held the sachet that Xu Xing gave her on her birthday in his hand, pressed his lips hard, but still shed tears uncontrollably.

Obviously I choked it up in the office just now...but now I can't stop it.

In fact, she is the one who has no reason to give in, the one who should stick to it and defend her feelings.

But if she is facing sister Niannian, she doesn't know how to face the facts that have already happened.

It's just that after she finished speaking her heart to Xu Xing, she felt much more comfortable than before.

The taxi drove all the way and sent her to Yao Yuanyuan's house.

At the moment Yao Yuanyuan is still working in the company, and only Pei Qinglan is at home.

Pei Qinglan, who knew in advance that she wanted to spend the night here, opened the door for her. Seeing the tears on her face, she folded her hands like someone who came here, and asked with a smile: "Although this is not very polite, it looks like the injury is not shallow. "

"Aunt Pei..."

"Let's go first." Pei Qinglan took her in, went to the bathroom to get a basin of hot water, and gave her a hot towel to come out, "Wipe your face before talking."

"Thank you." Yan Chi vinegar took the towel embarrassingly, and wiped his face.

After being wiped off with a warm towel, her spirit improved a lot.

Pei Qinglan rarely had time today, so she looked at her with great interest, and after she finished wiping her face, she asked, "Yuanyuan didn't tell me, did you quarrel with Xu Xing?"

Yan Chi opened his mouth, not knowing where to start, and finally he could only nod: "Well, it's about the same."

"Then how long do you plan to stay here?" Pei Qinglan got up again and poured her a glass of water, "It's fine to stay here as long as you want, but if it's just a quarrel, I guess your character is not likely to come out and live like this."

Yan Chi felt a little embarrassed when she hit the point, but she really didn't know what to say.

But Pei Qinglan curled her lips without shyness at all, and asked directly: "Is there someone outside?"

Yan Chi vinegar: "... Aunt Pei, you, why are you..."

"It's almost written on his face." Pei Qinglan sighed, and then said, "Besides, people like Xu Xing, it's hard to control themselves when they have money. I've seen it a lot. Appreciating his business talent On the one hand, but I never expected him to be a man."

"Actually...it's not as bad as what Auntie Pei said." Yan Chijiu even tried to excuse him, "Although...he's still different from other people."

"I'm not very concerned about this." Pei Qinglan shrugged, "As long as he doesn't get affected, and then affect our business."

"But what about yourself?"

"What's the plan now?"

"I have already resigned." Yan Chijiu said in a low voice, "I will stay here for a few days, and then I plan to go on a trip to relax and come back to school when the school starts."

"Oh?" Pei Qinglan was a little surprised, "Where is Xu Xing?"

"I haven't figured it out yet..." Yan Chi pursed his lips, "I don't know what to do."

"Then think about it slowly. There is still a long way to go in life, and there will only be more and more similar things." Pei Qinglan chuckled twice, "It's good to go out and see the world, and wander around. Maybe you'll see more. When you look back, you will find that…”

"Found what?"

"It's the same thing when you find a man. Maybe you can live well by yourself."

"Really……"

"At least men won't be the whole of your life, will they?" Pei Qinglan leaned on the sofa, talking to her in a relaxed manner, "There should be many things in life that are worthy of your pursuit and enjoyment."

"Does Auntie Pei have any pursuits or enjoyments?"

"Of course." Pei Qinglan said with a smile, "Investing capital is one of my hobbies, and because of this hobby, I often need to travel around the world to see the scenery of different places, which can be regarded as paid travel."

"It's actually work..."

"That's better than being attached to a man." Pei Qinglan snorted, "Women can seek love, but it's best not to pin all your life hopes on men. When you can really live independently in this world on your own, Falling in love with a man is your choice, not the result of no choice."

If Xu Xing was here, he would probably understand why Yan Chi, who was jealous in the previous life, would become such a strong woman character.

At this time, although Yan Chijiu was not particularly able to understand and accept Pei Qinglan's point of view, he felt some comfort inexplicably.

"In two days, I'm going to go abroad to discuss a business again." Pei Qinglan looked at Yan Chijiu, and offered the invitation with a smile, "Since you are Mr. Xu's secretary, would you like to come to work with me? By the way, go abroad for a paid trip?"

"Hmm... that sounds pretty good."
