Chapter 1, Leng Yan Changes His Heart
All that fills Wang Yuqing's mind are the good qualities of Leng Yan, his tenderness; even after witnessing such an unbearable scene today, she still does not hate him
But she has never been worried, always believing that he was different from others. It now appears that she was mistaken; in this bizarre and ever-changing society, the most transformed aspect is the human heart
Yuqing looked at her and smiled: "Do you think it could be misinterpreted?"
Lifting the blanket, I tumbled out of bed and rushed into the bathroom, where a relatively good-looking face was reflected in the mirror
Wang Yuqing has always wondered, is it not good to live a simple and honest life? Her idea is to find a good man, to build their own nest together, and to live a warm and ordinary life.
Wang Yuqing continues to live as she always has. When she calms her mind, she thinks about various matters, such as Leng Yan, and about herself. Is she hanging from a tree? Perhaps! She enjoys stable emotions
It is now apparent that there are always signs before anything happens, it just depends on how observant one is. However, she, Wang Yuqing, is not the observant type.
Wang Yuqing hurriedly ran down the stairs, while Xiao Ying was already growing impatient. Yuqing shot a glance at Xiao Ying, wondering when this woman would ever have a bit of patience. She then shook her head and sighed, thinking that if this continued, Xiao Ying should no longer be called Xiao Ying.
"It wasn't you who did it, so what is there to feel sorry about? I'm just curious, when did you find out?" Wang Yuqing's voice sounded somewhat indifferent even to herself
Xiao Ying sighed: "About six months ago! I was afraid you would be hurt"
Leng Yan said: "Yuqing, my mother is urging us to get married soon! I also want to marry you, what do you think?"
Uh... I see. Please come pick me up in a while!" Wang Yuqing hung up the phone and continued to lie back in bed. She had worked late yesterday, resulting in insufficient sleep, and she was reluctant to get up from the warm blankets.
Good! Wang Yuqing hung up the phone, and couldn't help but smile
Xiaoying turned her head to look at Yuqing, and Yuqing saw the pain in her eyes. Yuqing calmly turned her head away, and Xiaoying's voice came through, somewhat hoarse: "Yuqing, I am sorry"
Yuqing looked at Xiaoying with a faint gaze, her eyes fixed on her, while Xiaoying's gaze was clearly evasive. Wang Yuqing scoffed, "Xiaoying, you must have known all along, right? It seems that I'm the only one in the whole world who is clueless!"
Leng Yan said: "... ..."
Is that really Leng Yan? ... The boy in the maple forest who blushes at every word spoken, the boy who boldly confessed his love at the school association meeting, the boy who always keeps her on his right side amidst the bustling traffic ...
Hello? Xiaoying! She pressed the answer button, still feeling dazed
She had never imagined the sight of other women appearing beside him, and it was so harmonious. Was she too self-righteous?
I never expected that the attempt to accept it back then has now passed ten years. Wang Yuqing has long transformed from an initially naive girl into a mature woman, accustomed to the ups and downs of others, and feels that this is also quite good
Cities in the 21st century always make one feel as if they are in the clouds, creating a sense of unreality. It makes her feel that the person living in this body for over twenty years is not herself, but another version of her. This feeling, whenever it arises, invariably brings about profound melancholy
"Did you cry heavily after drinking on Christmas and curse Leng Yan for being worthless? Was it because of this matter? At that time, I was quite puzzled, thinking that Leng Yan hadn't offended you! Now that I think about it, if I had been more observant back then, I would have noticed that there was clearly something different between you two afterwards, but I didn't realize it." Yuqing said slowly, looking at Xiaoying.
Xiaoying was still saying something, but she no longer knew what it was. Gradually, she became immersed in her own thoughts. It was as if she were still in a dream. After ten years, she finally decided to marry Leng Yan, to wear that pure white wedding dress for him. She should be very happy, right? ... Because Leng Yan is the man she has prepared to spend her life with ...
That is indeed Leng Yan, handsome and tall, gentle and elegant, with a warm smile like the breeze of April. After ten years together, every little detail of him has long since merged into her bones and her heart; she would not mistake anyone else for him.
No one got off the vehicle. I watched a couple walk out of a hotel across the street. The man was handsome and tall, while the woman was charming and lovely. The man had his arm around the woman's waist, and she was linking her arm with his. The two were laughing and talking intimately; the man's name was Leng Yan
"So early? Bastard! Son of a bitch! Do you also enjoy deceiving me? Do I look like a fool, kept in the dark? Are you having fun? Are you happy?" Wang Yuqing laughed heartily after hearing this, not knowing whether she was mocking herself or others, her heart tightening with pain, tears streaming from her laughter, laughing to the point of stomachache. The words she spoke felt sharp even to herself.
Seeing Yuqing silent for half a day, just as she was about to say something, I followed her gaze and then I was also stunned
The simple and warm life had long become the main theme of her and Leng Yan's existence, and Leng Yan had melted her indifference with his heart. Over the course of ten years and several thousand days, Wang Yuqing had grown accustomed to his company. Therefore, when he proposed marriage, she agreed without hesitation
People often say that men change women like clothes, but Li Ying has turned this notion on its head, becoming a woman who changes men like clothes, and even more frequently than changing clothes
Xiaoying turned her head to look at Yuqing, and after several attempts to speak but hesitating, she finally said: "Perhaps we were mistaken, that is not Leng Yan." Her voice was noticeably lacking in confidence
The ringtone of the phone rang for the Nth time, disturbing Wang Yuqing's sweet dream. Reluctantly, she got out of bed and searched left and right for the source of the sound. Oh! It's on the floor!
Leng Yan said: "Yu Qing, the house in Xin Jing Garden is beautiful, let's buy it and settle down there!"
Wang Yuqing shook her head, driving away those chaotic thoughts, and focused intently on the view outside the window. The rapid development of this city made it feel unfamiliar, and she found it somewhat boring, preparing to withdraw her gaze.
"Yuqing, please don't do this!" Xiaoying shook Yuqing's shoulder and reached out to wipe her tears, but Yuqing raised her hand and brushed her away
What should she do at this moment? Wang Yuqing did not know. She could only watch as those two figures walked further away, getting into another vehicle. She observed calmly, feeling somewhat numb, and admired her own ability to endure.
The car slowly came to a stop by the seaside, and I found a rock to sit on. The sea breeze blew in, and memories replayed in my mind like a film.
Suddenly, she froze, unable to believe it. The world stood still at that moment. ... Before her was a blank space ...
Leng Yan said: "Yuqing, how about we attend the same university? My wife is so beautiful, I am afraid of being taken away by others"
At this moment, shouts came from downstairs, and she knew that Xiaoying had arrived. This woman! She had always been too lazy to walk with her noble feet, let alone climb the stairs. It seemed that it would be better to resolve this in the car sooner rather than later
Hello?" She hurriedly pressed the answer button
Wang Yuqing almost doubted her eyesight for a moment, but that intimate figure always reminded her that she was not mistaken
Baby! Are you up? Don't forget that today you need to try on wedding dresses. " Leng Yan's gentle and lazy voice came through the phone.
Deep down, she is actually quite indifferent; the battle between cold-bloodedness and passionate blood always ends with coldness prevailing. Her feelings for Leng Yan, due to his pursuit and the fact that everyone who knows her says she treats Leng Yan differently from others, led Yuqing to think at that time that this is what people call love
Wang Yuqing stared blankly at the woman in the mirror, is this her? This is her! The 28-year-old woman still possesses a beauty that rivals that of a 20-year-old. What a fortunate thing this must be!
The car drove out of Xinjing Garden, heading towards Central Avenue, while Xiaoying beside her chattered on and on, complaining about how XX was too stingy, how XX was too showy, and how XX was too sloppy. Wang Yuqing had long since become numb to her words; she had heard them at least eight hundred times, if not a thousand.
What happened? Big sister! Don't you know that parking is not allowed here? Do you want us to get fined?" Xiao Ying mumbled, but still parked the car.
Leng Yan said: "Yuqing, let's get married when I return from my business trip! I want you to be my most beautiful bride..."
Leng Yan said: "Yu Qing, you are the girl I, Leng Yan, like. You are not allowed to like anyone else!"
After you leave, my heart is weary, the white tung tree petals scatter in the wind, falling flowers accompany the melancholy of this season, the wind by the riverside blows fiercely, relentlessly stirring a woman's tears
The man whom Wang Yuqing has known for ten years, the one who told her a few days ago that he wanted to get married, the one who just called her to say he would prepare dinner and wait for her to come back
Xiao Ying remained silent. Yu Qing smiled faintly, a smile tinged with bitterness
Beneath the gently arched willow-leaf eyebrows lies a pair of eyes as fluid as water, a heart-shaped face, a pointed chin, delicate red lips, and long, soft hair cascading down to the waist. With slender shoulders and an elongated figure, she truly embodies the saying... an angelic face and a devilish figure
That's good! I will return in the afternoon, and by then, I suppose you will not be back yet. I will have prepared a meal waiting for you. Leng Yan's deep voice carried a unique charm.
Wang Yuqing seemed to have suddenly fallen from the clouds to the depths of the valley, her entire body instantly drained of all strength. Countless images of similar situations flashed through her mind, emotions urging her to rush over immediately, while reason told her that even if she did rush over, what difference would it make
Stop the car! Xiao... Xiao Ying, hurry up and stop the car! Wang Yuqing herself was not aware of how hoarse her voice sounded, she just stared blankly out the window at the road across from her.
Leng Yan, the man who occupied half of her 28 years of life, Wang Yuqing knew he was a rare golden bachelor, a renowned diamond bachelor, handsome and elegant, like a jade tree standing in the wind
Wang Yuqing listened with a smile but said nothing. When pressed, she retorted, "You are not a fish, how do you know the joy of fish?"
Xiao Ying is a devilish woman, with an alluring figure, sexy and charming. Her bold and carefree personality allows her to navigate the business world with ease.
Wang Yuqing turned her head, unable to look outside any longer. The traffic officer was approaching, and Xiaoying started the car. Yuqing observed her driving, clearly distracted.
The gaze shifts to the window, where tall buildings stand in clusters and traffic flows incessantly. My mind wanders aimlessly, contemplating various thoughts, as I have missed the rush hour, allowing for a relatively swift journey.
"Yes! I am up! In a little while, Xiaoying will come to pick me up, so don't worry!" Wang Yuqing smiled gently at the phone
Wang Yuqing turned her head to look at the silent Xiaoying sitting beside her. The sea breeze stirred up wave after wave, lifting their hair. Is it possible that Xiaoying is somewhat abnormal? A calm abnormality
Leng Yan is not around, and she is not accustomed to being alone. Over the years, she has grown dependent on him. She knows this is a bad habit, but she is unwilling to change. Remembering Leng Yan's tenderness, his kindness, and the fact that she is supposed to try on wedding dresses today, she simply cannot fall asleep, so she decides to get up.
"Yuqing, are you a pig? Why aren't you up yet? Aren't you supposed to try on wedding dresses today? Hurry up and get up!" Xiaoying's loud voice came through the phone. She sounded even more anxious than the person who was supposed to try on the wedding dress.
Her boyfriend is changed one after another. In her own words, she says, "This is called living freely; one only lives once, unlike you who gives up the entire forest for this one tree, Cold Flame." The disdain for Yuqing is evident in her words.
Having finished grooming at the fastest speed, the phone rang again
