Chapter 19: Chapter 2: London Encounters (15)

In an instant, seven months passed, and it was April in the world, and the flowers were red and the grass was green.

Jay asked me on MSN how I was preparing for my dissertation. I realized that I had just written the beginning of my graduation thesis. So I privately found a Chinese senior who had graduated and helped me write my graduation thesis, and that person wanted to go to Central Saint Martins for graduate school, but I didn't have the money, so I gave her a lot of money, so that she must write my graduation thesis better than her own.

But then, the man took the deposit and disappeared, so Alice helped me to make up the end of the paper, and I bought her a Bulgari shirt as a thank you.

Money solves a lot of problems, doesn't it?

On the way to school, Alice asked me, "Hua, do you want to go back to China after graduation?" ”

"I'm going to France to get a job and stay with Jay."

"Okay. It's been almost a year, and you can bear the loneliness. Do you miss him now? ”

"Of course." I said, "At first, I thought about it every day, but now it's better, and I think about it once a week." ”

"Hua, Chen came to me two days ago."

"He's looking for you? Compound? ”

"Yes. I agreed. Alice smiled as sweetly as she had when we first talked.

"What?! He dumped you in the first place! You! ”

"Oh, don't get excited, I'm just afraid that you will react too much, so I didn't tell you two days ago."

"Alice, trust me, you don't want to be with him, okay? I don't believe him. ”

Alice was a little embarrassed to hear me say this, and pulled me to the classroom by the arm, "Okay, I'm in charge of my own affairs, don't you want to be like an adult, okay?" ”

"Alice, I have to tell you, Chen broke up with you at the beginning, and now he comes to you again, he is unreliable, do you understand?"

"In class, don't say in the classroom, I don't want others to know, let's talk later, okay?"

So I held it all afternoon, and it wasn't until I got home in the evening that I began to reason with her again.

"Hua, it's been almost a year, and he came to me to get back together, doesn't that mean he still has feelings for me, doesn't it?"

"No, he might just be lonely. I've heard Neil talk about him, and he says that Chan is a bad guy in London, and that he and Jay have taken two different paths. ”

"Jay Jay Jay, don't compare yourself to Jay, okay? Chan is Chen, he's not Jay, and you're not me! ”

"Alice! Trust me, okay? He doesn't like you. ”

"Why do you say that, I have a boyfriend, are you so unhappy?"

Alice rushed out the apartment door.

I called her, and she didn't answer any of them.

I don't know where she went, but I guessed she must have gone to Chen's house.

After that, when she came to class, she sat with other classmates, and I sat alone in the back row and watched her talk and laugh with others.

I stopped her after class once, and I begged her for mercy: "I don't object to you being with him, can we reconcile?" ”

After saying that, I took out another Hermes silk scarf and wanted to give it to her.

Alice sneered, "Hua, you're always like this, I'm hating you more and more now, you always like to humiliate me with money." Did you enjoy that noble feeling when you used to be with me? ”

I was so surprised to hear Alice say this, and I couldn't speak for a long time with my mouth open.

"Let's break up."

She didn't take the Hermes scarf I had chosen for her, ignored me and walked away, speaking in a tone that was not as innocent as she had been.

I'm a little confused and broken......

Mrs. Duris made tea for me, and when she saw that I was crying all the time, she played me a tune. I was fascinated by the music, and I cried because I was moved by the music.

"Jupiter, Star Suite."

"The piano version is no worse than the orchestra's." She said to me gently, "Are you feeling better?" ”

"Much better." I preached.

"Can you let me play a song?"

"Of course, kid."

Mrs. Duris sat back on the couch, and I sat on the black piano bench with a brown pastoral piano in front of me.

I put my hand on it, played a melody, and when I finished playing, I was a little more relaxed.

"Chopin's Waltz." She said.

"Yes."

I had dinner at Mrs. Doris's house, and sat back on the couch to read with her. She loved English literature, she liked Dickens, but I liked the American writer Paul Auster simply because he looked like a skinny Shawn Yue when he was younger, and he said in his memoirs that nothing in his life was more important than releasing his bladder.

Later, I spent the spring in London alone for its short summer. Even if the summer in London was short, the trees in Hyde Park were still stout and the leaves were emerald green, and I could lie there all day.

It's been a long, long time, so long that I can't remember how many times Jay has been back to London, so long that I can't remember what day it is. On graduation day, I asked Alice for a picture to ease our relationship, but she turned me down.

The student council dragged me a little bit, and when I got back, I found Alice at home packing up what she hadn't taken with her.

"Are you leaving?"

"Yes."

Alice crouched on the ground, stuffing clothes into her suitcase, and didn't look up, unwilling to look at me.

"Go to Chen?"

"Yes."

"Alice, don't be impulsive, okay?"

"Hua, if you still don't agree with me being with Chen in your heart, then we have nothing to say."

"Are you so ruthless? We've known each other for so long, why did you give up our friendship with that man? ”

"You forced me. I'm just trying to find a man who likes me, you have Jay and money, of course you don't have to care about Chen, you don't have to care about anyone. ”

"Alice...... "I called her name, and humbly begged her to stay, but she still didn't look back."

The next morning, I called Chen and asked him to come out to meet him, in the café in front of the college.

Chen's speech has changed a lot, and the sunshine in his eyes was the same as Jay's that year, but now he is sleek.

"Why are you pestering Alice?"

"Because I still like her."

"You're lying." I say.

"How do you know?"

I refused to answer, stared into his eyes, and said very seriously, "I hope you two break up, you don't deserve Alice, and I don't want you to dump her again." ”

"Then who is worthy of me? You? ”

"Shut up! Don't say anything like that! I grinned and scolded him, "Do you want face?" ”

"You've been in a long-distance relationship with Jay for a year, and you still like him? Aren't you afraid that he has found another sweetheart in Paris? ”

"He won't."

"I've known him longer than you, we're both men, wouldn't I know him?" Chen's gaze was full of hostility.

I was stunned for a moment, "You, sow discord." Why did you and Jay end up like this? Aren't you good brothers? ”

"Good brother?" Chen sneered, "It seems that he didn't tell you about his first love......

I walked out of the café, the street was almost overwhelmed, a mountain bike backpacker almost hit me, he apologized to me, I ignored it, and continued to walk on indifferently.

"When we were in the same dormitory as a freshman, he chased a girl from the college, and that girl was obviously the first thing I fell in love with, but he snatched her love. That girl's family conditions are not good, and studying art is so expensive, so she stole Jay's money and left London, I heard that she went to Paris, France......"

Chen's words were re-staged in my mind, an infinite loop, like a magic spell, my heart was pierced by a needle, and it hurt uncomfortably.

"He told me that you stayed at the W Hotel, and he knew that you were rich, so he found you, not only did he not have to worry about being scammed, but he could even go to New York and swipe your card, and he didn't have to feel guilty, because you don't have a good relationship with your family, and they don't care about you.

Did he ask you if you wanted to go back to China?

He just took a fancy to your family's property, and since you refused to go back, you had to obey your parents' arrangement, go to Paris, and work in the royal family, how many people have such an opportunity?

……

After that girl broke up with Jay, I felt proud for a while. Jay is my good brother, but he snatched my beloved, and this hurdle will never be overcome! It's because I found her in Paris last year, so I broke up with Alice, and Jay actually went to Paris too, it's all so ingenious, hahahahaha......"
