Days after Breaking up with My Ex

I looked at Guzheng inexplicably and asked, "What do I have to lose?"

"When you asked me to lend you money, I asked you to agree to my... Request. But this was all Old Gao's fault. It had nothing to do with you. You didn't do anything wrong, and Old Gao gambled because of Mengmeng. If Mengmeng hadn't cheated Old Gao so cruelly, he wouldn't have gambled. Mengmeng, on the other hand, is my best friend. It feels like I've tricked you."

"How could you have tricked me by lending me the money?" I looked at the streets and cars outside the glass and said calmly, "Besides, that's the result of our three brothers'discussion. We have to bear it together."

Guzheng wanted to say something, but his expression was still a little conflicted.

I sighed and comforted Guzheng, "In fact, sometimes you really can't blame someone completely. Not just you and me, even Old Gao and Wang Mengmeng. Old Gao loved Wang Mengmeng so much that he fell for her for quitting smoking and running away with a pond. It was understandable for him to do so. And Wang Mengmeng wanted Old Gao to pay the price for her sister, to get close to Old Gao and deceive Old Gao. You can't say she's right, but you can't simply say the wrong word. Perhaps, there is an indescribable cause and effect. We are trapped in the cause and effect. We can only create countless results because of countless reasons, and countless reasons because of countless results."

Wang Bing had broken my head in the pond and persuaded him to find a girlfriend to get back together. Now I'm about to get married.

Similarly, I saved Cheng Shuai and Yu Min during the time I worked at the pond.

Now that both of the newlyweds have chosen to hold a banquet at the Xingyun hotel, the fish shortage has resulted in me returning to the pond.

It was as if everything was in the dark. If I hadn't come to the pond, I might never have known that Wang Mengmeng had taken over the pond.

"What are you talking about?" Guzheng smiled bitterly as if he didn't understand.

I smiled and said, "I just hope you don't blame yourself. Maybe we're all right."

"Or maybe we're all wrong." Guzheng was still depressed.

"Maybe." I looked out the window and didn't want to talk about it anymore.

Maybe it really is fate!

Just then, all of a sudden, I thought back to what Wang Mengmeng said in the pond and felt like I had missed something.

And when I remembered those things, I couldn't help but feel a little shocked!

At that moment, it was as if countless pieces of information had begun to gather in my head, and then a jumble of random memories came rushing in, and at that moment, my head felt a little swollen.

Could it be that...

I dare not think about it anymore!

All of a sudden, I felt my mouth dry and my tongue dry, and my whole body became bad, as if I had an anxiety disorder!

I have to figure things out, or I won't be able to calm down.

Guzheng looked at my sudden impatience and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

I pinched my temples and lowered my head slightly, "It's okay."

Guzheng said in disbelief, "What's wrong with you?"

I took a long breath and said, "I think it might not be what Wang Mengmeng said."

"Squeak!"

Guzheng was shocked when she heard what I said, and she quickly stepped on the brake. Then she quickly parked the car on the side of the road and looked at me and asked, "What do you mean? You still suspect that Mengmeng is lying to us, right?"

I shook my head. Wang Mengmeng didn't lie to us.

"What about that?" Guzheng asked again.

"I'm not sure now. I have to go back and ask Old Gao."

Guzheng frowned and said, "You promised Mengmeng not to tell Old Gao anything about her."

However, at this point, I don't know what to say, and I don't know if I would tell Old Gao if it was really as I thought.

"Do you want to go back on your word?" It seems that Guzheng still wants me to keep my promise.

"No, I just want to figure something out." I secretly clenched my fists and rubbed my temples.

...

Back at the restaurant, I was thinking about how to tell Old Gao that I couldn't be too direct, or he would have noticed something.

Since I promised Wang Mengmeng, I think I should keep it a secret for her.

I hate myself for putting too much emphasis on promises. If I wasn't such a nice person, frivolous, indifferent, not keeping secrets from Wang Mengmeng, or even going back on the terms set by Guzheng, then maybe my life would have changed completely.

I didn't find the right time to have a heart-to-heart talk with Old Gao, and it was only at night that I got the chance.

Old Gao squatted in the backyard and lit a cigarette habitually. The yard blocked the wind a little. The smoke shrouded around Old Gao for a long time and did not dissipate. Old Gao seemed to enjoy the smoke especially.

Old Gao and Hu Zi smoke differently. Although Hu Zi smokes less than a year, he smokes fiercely. He always takes a big puff and swallows the cigarettes directly into his stomach, which is actually the most harmful to his body.

And Old Gao would always spit it out, and he smoked much slower than Hu Zi. Many times, a lot of his cigarettes were self-ignited.

He squatted there, his back looking particularly vicissitudes of life, really did not have the previous dandy flaunting.

Looking at Old Gao, I couldn't help but wonder, did it really take too much ups and downs to become mature? The price of maturity is too high!

I squatted beside Old Gao as usual and casually chatted with him, "What are you thinking?"

"Nothing."

"It's almost new year. What are you going to do?"

"What else can I do? Just live a normal life." Old Gao smoked another cigarette.

In the past, Old Gao loved to play, especially during the new year. Bar, ktv, and other entertainment venues, almost every Old Gao is very familiar with, no matter what, he can evaluate one or two, every day there are all kinds of games, there are all kinds of friends.

Living exceptionally well, or crazy!

And now, everything has changed!

There was not even a single buffering process.

"Ask me something, Old Gao."

Old Gao looked at me and asked, "What is it?"

"Did your mother urge you to talk about girlfriends? Many people are forced to go on blind dates during the new year."

Old Gao frowned and smiled faintly, "I'm fine. My mom didn't say anything."

I smiled bitterly. Old Gao's family had changed. I don't know if Old Gao had changed. His parents must have changed too.

"Your mother must be anxious if she doesn't say it."

Old Gao just smiled and said nothing.

"You really need to find a girlfriend. You can't be alone anymore."

Old Gao sighed, "Take your time."

"You used to be pretty good at flirting with girls. What's wrong now? Don't hang on to one tree. You told me that."

Old Gao smiled bitterly again and took a cigarette.

"Let's talk about your past relationship, shall we? How was it?"

Old Gao was clearly conflicted, "There's nothing to talk about."

"I used to talk a lot."

"You haven't heard enough of the conversation, have you?"

I didn't answer Old Gao's question and continued, "Old Gao, have you checked how many girlfriends you've had?"

Old Gao seemed to have no interest in flaunting his past experiences. His face was calm, as if the past had no meaning in his life. He said dully, "How can you remember this?"

"How many girls do you think you've hurt?" I looked at Old Gao and asked.

Old Gao shook his head and replied, "I was ignorant before. I hurt a lot of people intentionally or unintentionally. I'm really ashamed to think about it."

The cruel image flashed in his mind again. I wonder how Old Gao would feel when he heard the news.

At this moment, Old Gao took another puff and said, "Now think about it. Being offended may really be the punishment for making a mistake in the past. Really, really have this feeling! I've done too many sins in the past, and now it's karma."

I sighed and felt that there were so many things in this world that I couldn't explain them!

Old Gao put out the cigarette butt, stood up, and said to me, "I'm busy in front."

I quickly stood up, but before I could ask anything, I couldn't help but feel anxious, but I couldn't sleep well without knowing this.

"Old Gao, have you talked to some Moon city girls?" After much hesitation, I finally asked this question.

Old Gao looked at me in confusion and asked, "Why are you asking?"

I know I promised Wang Mengmeng that I wouldn't tell Old Gao about her, but now I can't care less about Old Gao's suspicions and continue to ask, "Just ask, how many?"

Old Gao frowned and looked at me suspiciously. He said without much thought, "I can't possibly know where everyone is."

Indeed, Pucheng is richer than the surrounding cities, and there are many people in Pucheng in places like Moon city.

At this moment, Old Gao was silent for a moment, and a trace of sadness appeared on his face. He frowned and said, "I can confirm that my family is from Moon city. There are two of them."

Two!

One of them was Wang Mengmeng, and the other was probably the one that Old Gao had mentioned to me.

I froze, feeling as if the calm weather had suddenly turned into a storm.

Is that really what I thought?

Seeing that my expression was not right, Old Gao continued to ask, "Why did you think of asking this?"

I felt guilty because I knew that Old Gao must have sensed something from my question, but I could only lie and say, "It's okay, just ask."

Old Gao still frowned and looked at me deeply for a long time, but he didn't ask any more questions.

"Go to the bathroom."

My heart was beating fast as I walked into the toilet. I couldn't calm down. I took out my cell phone and gave wang meng a message.

I asked her, what's your friend's name!

Wang Mengmeng quickly replied with three words.

Fang Qingyu!
