It was not until half past eight that Lin Zhixia, who was sitting, could no longer hold back. She stood up and walked to the bar, gently pulling Yang Ruoan's arm and walking out of the coffee shop.
"I'm not done yet."
"eat first."
Lin Zhixia ignored Yang Ruoan's reluctance and gently pulled her into a private restaurant.
Although this store was not big, she and Yang Ruoan had eaten there by chance before, and the food they cooked tasted pretty good.
As soon as she entered, Yang Ruo'an sat by the window and turned to look outside. I wonder if it was because of her sudden leisure. Her eyes were dull, and her sight outside was completely unfocused.
Because she was distracted, she didn't even hear Lin Zhixia call her several times.
Lin Zhixia, who was sitting opposite, saw Yang Ruoan's complete fatigue. Her expression was haggard and her eyes were dull, as if everything had lost its meaning.
Lin Zhixia felt extremely uncomfortable. She clenched her hands tightly and her knuckles turned white. This feeling was even a hundred times more uncomfortable than what she had experienced herself.
She looked at it for a while, then slowly stretched out her hand and gently covered Yang Ruo'an's arm, and asked softly: "Can you order a fish with pickled cabbage and lemon?"
His voice was very soft and low, as if he was afraid that his loud voice would scare her.
The touch on her arm brought Yang Ruo'an back to reality. She turned her head and looked at Lin Zhixia, who was trying to smile at her in front of her. She also slightly curved the corners of her mouth, "It's okay, it's up to you. "
After ordering the meal, Lin Zhixia put the menu on the table. She stared straight at Yang Ruoan. She had many questions in her heart, but she didn't know how to ask them. She was afraid that it would make her sad again.
She turned sideways and said to the waiter not far away: "Get me two cups of hot water, thank you."
When the waiter brought two cups of hot water and put them on the table, Yang Ruoan gently stroked the edge of the cup, with a forced smile on his lips, and slowly said to Lin Zhixia: "I know you want to ask me, what do you want to ask? Just ask."
Hearing this, Lin Zhixia hesitated for a while. She took a sip of the hot water in the cup and slowly put it on the dining table. As if she had made some determination, she asked aloud: "Tan Jie, he doesn't know anything." Have you admitted it?"
"So be it."
Yang Ruoan lowered his head, his fingers gently tracing the edge of the cup, and said aloud.
Lin Zhixia didn't answer for a while and remained silent.
And the same goes for Yang Ruo'an.
It wasn't until the waiter brought the ordered dishes one by one and reminded them that Lin Zhixia finally came to his senses, nodded to them and said "thank you".
Lin Zhixia picked up the chopsticks on her side, picked up a piece of fish, put it into Yang Ruoan's bowl, and said softly: "Eat some food first."
After the meal, Yang Ruoan basically didn't use her chopsticks. It was Lin Zhixia who reluctantly took a few bites because of the baby in her belly.
Seeing that Yang Ruo'an had no appetite, Lin Zhixia didn't eat much either. Several dishes were left intact, as they were when they were first served.
Lin Zhixia knew that she was a bit clumsy and could not comfort others. She looked at Yang Ruoan, stretched out her hand and held her hand tightly. She said in a very firm tone: "No matter what you decide, I will always be there for you." I’ll be with you.”
Yang Ruo'an looked at Lin Zhixia. Her nose suddenly felt a little sore. She raised her head slightly and held back the tears that were about to fall from her eyes. After a while, she slowly said, "I plan to divorce him."
Lin Zhixia gently rubbed Yang Ruo'an's hand, thinking that it was not easy for the two of them along the way, especially for Yang Ruo'an. Their love had a beautiful beginning but no happy ending.
Her eyes were a little fiery and she said comfortingly: "You still have me."
Yang Ruo'an held Lin Zhixia's hand back, with a touch of self-mockery on her lips, and said slowly: "As soon as he came back last night, he admitted it himself. What's funny is that our relationship for more than ten years is not as good as that of a young and beautiful person. Beautiful girl."
Lin Zhixia listened quietly without interrupting.
Yang Ruo'an turned his head and glanced out the window, and continued: "I know that I have always been chasing him. He may not love me as much as I imagined. Maybe I am too pushy. I should try to let him go and let him find me." Someone who truly loves.”
Lin Zhixia shook her head lightly and looked at her distressedly, "Ruoan, how could you think like that? That bastard Tan Jie is lucky to marry you. You are so stupid."
Yang Ruo'an raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his cheeks, sniffed, and laughed out loud, "Maybe our fate has ended. I have wasted too much time on him, and I don't want to waste it anymore. ”
Lin Zhixia took out a paper towel on the dining table and handed it to Yang Ruoan, "You are not alone, there is me behind you."
Yang Ruoan nodded heavily and said in a crying voice: "I know, thank you Zhixia for staying with me at this time."
Lin Zhixia deliberately pretended to be angry and patted Yang Ruo'an's hand, "You made me angry when you said that. You forgot that you were by my side when I was sad!"
For a moment, both of them laughed out loud.
Just smiling and laughing, the tears in their eyes fell down again coincidentally.
In the end, Lin Zhixia burst into tears and said with a smile: "Stop crying, otherwise others will think I bullied you."
Hearing this, Yang Ruoan nodded sharply, "Okay."
Lin Zhixia was afraid that mentioning this topic again would make Yang Ruoan uncomfortable, so she gave a very standard smile and said coquettishly: "I've been alone recently, can you go and accompany me tonight?"
Yang Ruo'an knew that she wanted to accompany her, and some warmth slowly overflowed from her heart, "Since you said so, I reluctantly agree to it."
By the time the two of them came out of the small restaurant, it was already a little late, almost ten o'clock. Yang Ruo'an wanted to go to the coffee shop to have another look, but Lin Zhixia gently pulled her into a taxi.
"I haven't finished checking today's accounts yet."
"Don't you trust the clerks you hired? Try to let them practice."
Yang Ruoan was choked and speechless for a moment, so he could only turn his head and look out the car window at the fleeting scenery on the road.
As soon as she got home, Lin Zhixia hurried to the kitchen. After a while, she brought out a cup of hot milk, put it on the coffee table, and said to Yang Ruo'an who was sitting on the sofa: "You didn't even eat much tonight. This cup of milk Drink.”
Hearing this, Yang Ruoan shook his head and said with a bitter look on his face, "I have no appetite and don't want to drink."
But this time, Lin Zhixia did not give in, and said in a slightly stiff tone: "Are you alone now? It's okay for you not to eat, but is it okay not to eat my godson in your belly? Are you sure you want to be hungry? he?"
Yang Ruo'an looked at Lin Zhixia helplessly for a while, and finally picked up the glass of milk and drank it.
