Days after Breaking up with My Ex

After saying those words, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath!

It was really hard for me to remain calm when the past was like an iron tree and silver flower in my mind.

Listening to me, Hu Zi and Old Gao also quieted down, their faces heavy.

I took out another bottle of beer and opened it, "You two talk."

Hu Zi picked up the bottle and took a sip. Looking at Old Gao, he said, "Old Gao, I never want us to apologize to each other and say sorry to each other. Whatever happened last time, it doesn't matter who was right or who was wrong. It's all over. After we did this bottle of wine, we'll still be brothers in the future. How about that?"

Old Gao was slightly moved. He didn't say anything but picked up the bottle and both of them dried up the second bottle of beer.

The only sound left in the room was the sound of beer passing through the throat and the sizzling of the kebab on the stove.

Old Gao took out two more bottles of beer, opened them and said, "I've had my drink too. Let me say something. Hu Zi, before, Xing Yun and I wanted to persuade you to leave the Yu xiangyuan. No matter what you think, it's in our hearts. And we're doing it for your own good, not because we're jealous that you don't like you. Now I still want to say that I hope you can come back."

Hu Zi listened carefully to Old Gao, nodded and said, "Of course I know you are doing this for my good! But, Xing Yun, Old Gao, you have your ideas, and I have mine too. Who has different ideas from whom, right? You said it was for my good, and I stayed at the Yu xiangyuan for the reasons of the Yu xiangyuan, I also have my own reasons. Now we don't know what our future looks like, so none of us can guarantee who's right and who's wrong. So, I hope you don't persuade me to leave the Yu xiangyuan anymore. If I want to leave in the future, I will leave. But now, I won't leave."

Hu Zi's words were as firm as ever. Old Gao and I looked at each other and said so much. There was no use in persuading her. We would only argue like before. We could only agree with Hu Zi's decision.

I put the roasted lamb skewers and lamb loins on the plate, handed them a few skewers each, and said to Hu Zi, "Okay, Hu Zi, since you insist so much, we won't advise you. But there's nothing to hide between brothers. I still have to warn you. I always feel that your environment is like a pool of sewage. I'm really afraid that you'll become something we don't know, especially the last time. I hope it never happens. Remember, many bad people are not as ruthless at first. Those who are corrupt will have struggles and conflicts at first, but there will be a second time when there is a first time. Do you understand me?"

"Yes, yes, I understand." Hu Zi said softly.

He raised the bottle and the two of us clinked glasses again.

Drinking beer in summer is very enjoyable. Drinking beer at the end of autumn is getting colder and colder. But this night, we drink more than we talk. The depression these days makes us need to release too much!

The smoke of coal wafted in the backyard, and Old Gao and Hu Zi lit it up. Above them, the lights in the moonlight yard lit up the fire in the grill. Amidst the familiar smell of barbecue and beer, we seemed to have returned to the youth and reveled in wild and wild ways.

But we are not teenagers after all. We are not far from the middle-aged man.

Getting married and having children together was as far away and unreachable as outer space, but I was getting married by the end of this year, and Hu Zi and Old Gao's love lines crossed like a non-parallel line.

Old Gao looked at Hu Zi and asked, "Hu Zi, what about Du Ling?"

I glanced at Old Gao. This was the thing I was most worried about. There was always a feeling of uneasiness in my heart. I was afraid that the two of them would eventually drift away because of this girl, Du Ling.

"Say it." Hu Zi said to Old Gao.

Old Gao's eyes flashed with an undetectable sadness. He took a sip of beer, forcefully bit off the last bit of lamb on the kebab, chewed and said, "If you really want to be with Du Ling, I hope you can treat her well instead of making her the next Xiaoyi or Xiaolian, can you do that?"

I sighed in my heart. It must have been hard for Old Gao to say that.

Looking at the girl she liked and her brother together, her feelings were deeply buried in her heart, and she couldn't reveal a trace of it, wouldn't it be too depressing!

There's an old saying that we all know that a friend and wife can't be deceived. Since Old Gao said so, he obviously wanted to bury his feelings deeply and make it a permanent secret.

Hu Zi did not know that it was good, but when he knew, it was the embarrassment between the three of them!

I looked at Hu Zi again. How would he answer that question?

Obviously, from what he said last time, it could be seen that his distorted view of love had not been corrected, but Du Ling's feelings for him were very deep. How would such a relationship end in the end?

After a long silence, Hu Zi said, "I know your worries, but... How to put it, since Du Ling and I have come to this point, we can only continue to walk, and I promise you, you can watch. If Du Ling is unhappy with me and injured, you can go to me and I will leave her. If we were to be together like any other normal couple, I hope you can bless us as well."

I don't know what to say, I just feel a little unspeakable bitterness in my heart, more bitter than these beers!

Old Gao lifted the bottle and the three of us touched it again.

I raised my head and started to drink the beer again. I didn't want to finish it in one gulp, but I didn't know why.

I think Hu Zi and Old Gao, we should have made up again, but I don't know why, this time, my heart is not very relaxed.

I still feel a lot of things pressing on my heart, heavy, but I can't take them away, because they are like countless small stones piled together, how much can I take away?

That night, I drank too much again. I wanted to drink too much because I didn't feel drunk for a long time.

However, after drinking so much beer, he was not too drunk, only felt that the urine was thick and he could still see the whole world clearly.

In the end, the kebabs on the table were all wiped out by us. The three of them were blown in the autumn wind, their faces turning red, and their faces were all slightly drunk.

Sometimes it's hard to get drunk, but sometimes when you get drunk, you feel that the world is better.

Her eyes seemed to have a filter, and the moonlight became brighter, and the whole world brightened up a lot...

...

When I got home, I wanted to knock on the opposite door, but it was too late, so I had to give up.

When she entered the room, she did not expect Du Ling to be awake. She was sitting on the table, reading a book with great interest.

When Du Ling saw me coming back, he put down his book and walked over. He frowned and said, "Did you drink again, Brother xingyun?"

I was a little dizzy. I smiled and replied, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"Well, I..." Du Ling paused and said, "Sit down first. I'll get you a glass of water."

Du Ling held me up and I sat on the sofa feebly. I drank a little too much tonight. I remember that there were four or five bottles that were finished in one sitting.

I feel like my alcohol intake is really getting worse.

I took the water from Du Ling's hand and took a sip. The hot water was still comfortable to drink.

Perhaps it was because I had too much to drink at the bar today and talked more than usual. I said to Du Ling, "Xiaoling, I know you like Hu Zi, but I have a few words to say to you today. Hu Zi is my brother. I know what kind of person he is. Back then... Li Xiaowei hurt him too badly."

"I know all about Brother xingyun."

"Well, you know, but you still like him. I don't know if my words will work, but Xiaoling, don't get too deep, okay? You... You are a simple girl who knows nothing about the world. You're too innocent..."

Maybe he was drunk and didn't know what to say. Looking at the girl in front of him, he really didn't know if Hu Zi had brought her back to save her or...?

Then I said so much in a mess that I couldn't even remember what I said.

Du Ling had been listening in silence without getting impatient. After I finished speaking, she said, "Brother xingyun, actually, my sister told me everything you said today."

I looked at Du Ling and immediately nodded. It was not unusual for Lin Ya to say these words to her.

Then Du Ling said, "I know you're afraid that I'll get hurt, but... If it weren't for Brother tiger, then I wouldn't be who I am now. And I know brother Hu Zi is really good to me. I know he was hurt, and he hurt other girls, but I don't care. I just want to stay by his side and take care of him."

I feel that Du Ling is also a stubborn person, falling in love with a person will be desperate!

This was their private matter, and I could only say so much. I took a breath and said nothing more.

"Brother xingyun, there's something I want to tell you."

"Hmm?"

"Now the one-year anniversary is over. I want..." Du Ling lowered his head slightly and said softly, "I want to resign."

"What?" I looked at Du Ling in surprise. She was about to resign. It was too sudden.

"Yes. I've been thinking about it for a long time."

"Why?" I frowned and asked, "Is it because of Old Gao?"

Now that everyone knows about her and Hu Zi, is she afraid of being embarrassed when she sees Old Gao?

"No." Du Ling shook his head. "I've already told my sister that when I quit, I'll go to my sister's bakery to help."

It seems that Du Ling has been thinking about resigning for a long time. It suddenly occurred to me that maybe it was because of Sister liu that she wanted to leave.

"Xiaoling, no matter what, you shouldn't be the one to leave!" I feel a little sad.

"Brother xingyun, stop it. I've made up my mind."

"Okay."

I nodded and didn't say much.

In any case, the Xingyun hotel these days had brought harm to Du Ling, and she was really working too hard here. Lin Ya had wanted Du Ling to resign in the past, but now she wanted to leave.
