Days after Breaking up with My Ex

When I returned to the community, I was walking along the road with my head down. There were no more people in the community. Most of the houses had turned off the lights. When I walked to the door of the unit, I didn't realize the footsteps behind me. Suddenly, a voice called out to me.

"Xing Yun!"

Familiar voice. I turned my head. It was Guzheng!

In the gloom, I also saw the other party clearly. It was Guzheng who was right. Her breath was a little hurried, as if she had just run out of the house.

I looked at her and asked with a smile, "It's so late. Haven't you slept yet?"

"Yes." Guzheng seemed to have something to say to me. Her expression was a little confusing. She said to me, "Come to my house."

"What's wrong?" I frowned and felt that Guzheng looked a little strange. Besides, it's getting late. We can talk about it tomorrow, or we can talk about it now.

Guzheng did not say much, but replied faintly, "Let's go back to my house."

I was a little confused and didn't know what was going on with Guzheng, but her expression was definitely abnormal. Worried about her, I followed Guzheng to her place.

When she arrived at Guzheng's house, Guzheng looked at me and asked, "Where have you been? Why did you come back so late?"

Guzheng sounded as if her girlfriend was questioning her boyfriend. She seemed a little angry. I didn't know how I had offended her, so I replied honestly, "Lin Ya has something to do with me. He just came back from her house."

After listening to me, Guzheng seemed even angrier. He said to me coldly, "Is it appropriate for you to go to a girl's house in the middle of the night?"

"We're on good terms." Then I added, "And we are pure!"

"Don't you think you and Lin Ya are too close?"

I didn't think it was wrong at all. After all, when I was in love with Ding Ge, I had such a good relationship with Lin Ya, so I asked, "What's wrong?"

"Now that you have a girlfriend, I think you should avoid being too intimate with other girls." Guzheng looked at me very seriously.

I found it funny, and I also found Guzheng a little strange. After all, our relationship is fake. We are not a real couple. But I wasn't angry either. I just smiled bitterly and said to Guzheng, "We're just good friends. Besides, our relationship isn't fake. You..."

"Even if it's fake, it's true in the eyes of others. So I think even to respect me, you should keep your distance from Lin Ya. Otherwise, if someone sees you coming out of another girl's house in the middle of the night, how should I explain?"

"You think too much. I didn't disrespect you!" I really felt that Guzheng was too unreasonable, and I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

"Didn't you tell Lin Ya that we were lovers?" Guzheng looked into my eyes and asked.

Guzheng's words instantly defeated me. I looked at her as if she had seen through me.

I covered my head and sat on the sofa in pain. My heart was very heavy and very irritable. I have made my promise, but it seems that in the end, there is no one inside or outside. What should I do?

"Isn't it?" Guzheng continued, "Didn't you tell her?"

"She didn't ask. What did I say?" I sighed impatiently.

I gritted my teeth and my whole body trembled. Guzheng sneered and said, "Why didn't you say you didn't want to?"

At this moment, I really don't want to say anything more to Guzheng, because it doesn't make sense. Lin Ya will definitely know!

I took a breath, suppressed my emotions and said to Guzheng, "Guzheng, this is not the problem. Our relationship is fake. Even if it's true, I don't want you to interfere with my private life!"

Guzheng looked at me resentfully, her eyes filled with sadness. It took a long time before she said to me, "But when someone asked me what I said, what did I say? Everyone thinks we're a couple, but I don't even know where you are every day. I don't want to interfere in your life. I just want us to cooperate with each other, not as your girlfriend. You spend more time with other women than I do."

I didn't know what to say to Guzheng. When I heard what she said, my head grew big and I couldn't help but say with annoyance, "I've cooperated very well. How else should I cooperate? Do we have to meet, date, watch movies, and make phone calls like real couples?"

My emotions were a little out of control, and after I said that, Guzheng's face showed a deep sadness. The room was extremely quiet, and Guzheng said nothing more. I was also very tired, so I said to Guzheng, "I'll go back first."

Then I opened the door of Guzheng's house and left.

The two of them parted unhappily. I stood in the wind and sucked in the cold air, feeling cold all over.

Dragging my exhausted body, I went home and got into bed.

I took out the phone Lin Ya gave me and couldn't help but think of Ding Ge again.

Sometimes I wish I could have god's perspective so that I could know what Ding Ge was doing and what she was thinking.

I logged on to wechat. Although I haven't been on wechat for so long, Ding Ge was always in my address book. After we broke up, she didn't blackmail me, and I didn't want to delete her, so she stayed in my address book quietly and never talked to me again.

At this time, she found Ding Ge. Her face was still the same as before.

I didn't want to talk to Ding Ge, but I couldn't help but secretly look at her circle of friends.

But I couldn't see anything at all. Ding Ge didn't post any news at all. I was a little disappointed. I wanted to know something about Ding Ge secretly, but it seems that wechat is not going to work.

I sighed, put down my phone, and closed my eyes.

I really want to know how Ding Ge is.

But now I feel that there is another huge gap between us that cannot be connected.

...

The next day, she had promised my aunt that she would go to her house with Guzheng, but she had such a bad time with Guzheng yesterday. Would she still go with me?

Thinking about Guzheng, I regret what I said to her last night. After all, she was just a girl who used the wrong love.

Besides, if Guzheng goes back on his word and wants me to pay him back, I won't be able to pay him back now.

She is now my creditor and my public' girlfriend'. Think about it and apologize to her.

I know what she's thinking. She has her own selfish heart, and I have mine too. We have to compromise. Let me do it. Who made her the creditor?

After thinking about it, I called Guzheng.

Even if I give in to her, I really can't repay her for helping me so much.

I thought Guzheng wouldn't answer my call because he was angry, but he didn't.

Alas, she was never that stingy girl.

Guzheng didn't speak when the phone was connected. There was silence in the receiver. Although I couldn't see Guzheng, I could feel the deep awkwardness between us.

"Didn't you say you were going to my aunt's house for dinner yesterday? Are you still going?"

"Yes." Guzheng answered without any emotion.

"Then, you should come to the restaurant first. We'll go over together later." I added.

"Okay." Guzheng replied succinctly, unable to detect any emotion.

"Okay." I sighed softly.

There seemed to be nothing more to say. Hang up.

I told Hu Zi and the others that I felt bad about it. My cousin and I are going today, and I don't know if they can handle it.

Hu Zi and Old Gao didn't care at all. They just wanted us to be at ease. Don't worry about the restaurant. I am very grateful to their brothers.

Not long after, Guzheng arrived at the restaurant. It seemed that she paid great attention to my aunt's visit, or rather, gave me face, dressed appropriately and beautifully.

But after the obvious conflict yesterday, Guzheng's expression was still a little flat, not as smiling as before.

My cousin and Guzheng and I went to my aunt's house.

My cousin was alone and did not listen to my aunt's words to bring liu sheng over. I couldn't help but worry that my aunt was angry, so I said to my cousin, "You really won't let liu sheng go?"

"What are you going to do?" Cousin replied irritably.

I didn't dare to provoke my cousin, so I didn't mention it again.

I always have an ominous feeling that my cousin can't be with this Liu Sheng. Because I feel like my cousin only talked to Liu Sheng because she compromised. It seems that Liu Sheng didn't make her fall for her.

Of course, maybe the two of them could talk about their relationship after knowing each other for a long time, but now they don't know.

My cousin was in the back seat, and I was in the driver's seat. Guzheng was driving quietly and didn't speak to me at all. It was a very uncomfortable feeling, an unspeakable awkwardness.

But I don't know what to do. I can't say anything to Guzheng in front of my cousin.

I could only pretend to be calm and look out the window, looking at the familiar scenery on the street.

Today's sky seemed to be even darker than usual, making the whole of Pucheng a little more bleak. It was a very uncomfortable day. The whole sky was like a filter. It was cold and dark, and it was a little suffocating.

The three of us chatted occasionally, but most of them were Guzheng and his cousin.

Then, the three of them came to my aunt's neighborhood, and Guzheng magically took out two boxes of gifts from the trunk. I didn't expect Guzheng to buy a gift in advance, which surprised me.

When I got out of the car, I suddenly realized that the Guzheng family and my aunt's family were in the same neighborhood. Thinking of that time when Guzheng said that her parents wanted to see me, I felt a little frustrated. I must not meet Guzheng's parents!

Why didn't I think of that?

If I had known, I would have insisted that my aunt go to the restaurant.

I became panicked. Fortunately, everything was calm. We arrived at my aunt's house smoothly.
