Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Belated Apology
Li Ruike's words of waiting made Ye Jiajia's heart tighten, and her fingers couldn't help but pick the edge of the sofa.
"Is there anything else?" She deliberately avoided Li Ruike's gaze, "I feel that what I wrote should be enough, if you still want to know more about something, you may need to ask the dean and Teacher Mo." β
A little more content, it's not that she can't, but she doesn't want to talk about it properly, and it's better to throw this stall to the doctoral seniors and mentors who have played with them.
However, Li Ruike avoided the academic question and asked: "Your boyfriend ...... You okay? β
is a very vague question, but Ye Jiajia doesn't know which aspect to answer. Is there something wrong with your mood, or is there something wrong with your body? Was he worried that her boyfriend would have an opinion when he saw her with other strange men and asked Ozer about his attitude? Or did he see a limping Ozer asking him about his physical health out of curiosity and concern?
Since you can't figure out the other person's intentions, use the most versatile answer: "It's okay." β
"How did he get his feet?" Li Ruike does not seem to have any intention of stopping the conversation.
Ye Jiajia had no choice but to temporarily put away her plan to evacuate and say a few words to him: "The injury I suffered in the game a while ago was not very serious, but I need to recuperate for a while." β
"Uh...... Oh......" probably realized that it was not appropriate to use the habitual modality words in such conversations, so he quickly changed one.
Even if these two words are not different in Ye Jiajia's ears.
"There's something I want to ask you."
"What's the matter?" In the process of preparing to ask questions, Ye Jiajia's mind flashed through countless possibilities, imagining what he would ask.
Could it be about herself? Or is it about her and Haozer? Or is it about them all in the past? Or maybe someone who inquired about the past?
"Are you still playing the game?"
"Ah......" was beyond what Ye Jiajia had imagined, and she was a little confused when she asked, "Yes, it's just that I haven't been on it much recently, so I'll leave it to a friend to take care of." β
Because of the game, she became attached to Haozer; It was also because of that game that she met Li Ruike again.
His thoughtful appearance shouldn't be simply concerned about whether Ye Jiajia is still playing, right?
"That...... She's still in ...... Embarrassed? β
"Occasionally, I don't play the original number now, and she can't find me when she troubles me."
"I heard she's getting married?"
"It seems, I can only hear that Boss Yun likes her very much, and the two of them have been together for so long and have not been separated, it's not impossible to run to the present."
"Hmmm......"
It turned out that Li Ruike's hesitant and hesitant questions were all about asking Ye Jiajia a little news about his ex-girlfriend, who was his ex-fiancΓ©e. Then he probably asked the wrong person, about the gossip stories in the game, there are special people working on them, as the protagonist of a story that once caused a sensation in the whole region, it is still possible to be concerned about the follow-up development.
"If you want to know more about Yuan Yingying, I can only say that you asked the wrong person. Now you go to their gang and find a random one who has been in the gang for more than a month, and I guess you know more than me. β
"It's not all ...... either"
"What?"
Li Ruike said coldly, and Ye Jiajia couldn't connect at all.
"I'm sorry."
"Huh?"
is so dignified, Li Ruike began to apologize to her again.
Which one is singing today, it's a bit messy.
"What happened to YY before, I didn't consider your situation, I'm sorry." Could it be that Yang Jingwen's cynicism ignited Li Ruike, and even made him take the initiative to apologize!
What a miracle!
Although Ye Jiajia has thought that Li Ruike owes herself a sorry thing all these years, it is not because of that incident.
"That's it, there are too many loopholes in the story she directed and acted in later, even if there is no you, people with a little brain can know what's going on, and in the end, except for her people who are in the rivers and lakes, no one else cares about this stubble." Ye Jiajia should be grateful to him, otherwise where would she have heard Haoze's words so gently under such a tough attitude.
Although it was conveyed by someone else.
She needed an apology that went back much further.
"Now that I've said that, I do have something to ask you. Or there has always been a knot in my heart that has not been untied, and only you can give me the answer. β
The opportunity to sit down face-to-face and talk calmly is scarce for the two of them, and today may be fate that has arranged for the two of them to solve their respective puzzles and untie the knot that has not been untied.
"What?"
"At the beginning, everything was fine, I could chat and joke, let go of my feelings and become ordinary friends, but you blocked directly?" This is Ye Jiajia's heart knot, a knot that has never been opened.
After graduating from junior high school, the two people who were relatively cold eased up a lot, and Ye Jiajia also helped Li Ruike, who was struggling with which school to choose at that time, come up with ideas. Two people who are no longer in the same school occasionally chat on QQ, say some interesting things, and from time to time exchange a little bit of learning problems like today. At that time, Ye Jiajia thought that everything was developing in a good place, but who knew that later, the ending was not what she expected at all.
"Give me a reason, I think I was careful in what I did and said at that time, and I didn't have any excessive thoughts, but I cherished you as a friend. However, it turned out that I was naΓ―ve. β
Ye Jiajia has been digging into the horns of the bull for this little thing, even if she has already figured it out, it makes no sense to ask why, but she just keeps remembering that this doubt is like a thorn in her heart, it doesn't hurt when she doesn't touch it, it hurts faintly when she touches it, she won't die, she won't get sick, and she won't get better.
It's just that her heart knot is like having lost her memory to Li Ruike, and she has no impression at all.
"Uh...... I...... I don't remember. β
Ye Jiajia laughed self-deprecatingly, lowered her head and muttered: "I always thought that there were some things that everyone would remember very clearly, but it turned out that I couldn't forget only myself." It's a bit ridiculous that you're always trapped by yourself. β
Since the parties can't remember, why should she ask again? Maybe this is destined to become an unbreakable knot between her and Li Ruike, adding weight to the impossible future.
"It's good, so be it......" she comforted herself, she understood the past, she tried to live in the present, live in the future, "just if I didn't ask today, you read well, I'll go first." β
But Li Ruike was still thinking about what she said, thinking of being distracted, thinking that the whole person was sitting there in a daze, and didn't hear what Ye Jiajia said at all.
It wasn't until Ye Jiajia walked out a few meters that he woke up like a dream.
"It's not me!"
Not him? What is not him?
