Chapter 67: Tracking
By the time I woke up, it was nine o'clock the next morning, and the side was empty, and the pillows were flat. When I touched the quilt, it was already cold, and he should have been away for a long time.
Everything last night seemed like a dream, and the corners of my mouth couldn't help but smile when I thought about it. I hurriedly washed up and went downstairs, the billiard hall downstairs is closed during the day, all the stools are set up on the table, and there is a cleaning aunt who is cleaning.
I looked around for a week and didn't see Xie Chen's shadow, only Nana leaning against the counter, she had obviously seen me, staring at me with a mocking smile. I didn't know her, and when I took out my mobile phone and was about to call, she suddenly stopped me, "Lin Xing, come here." β
Of course, I didn't want to walk over obediently, but her smiling eyes told me that she had something to say, and I couldn't hold back my curiosity, and asked angrily, "What?" β
She didn't mind me at all, and said, "What? Didn't you get tired of it last night, I thought you were so capable! Wake up early in the morning and disappear? β
"What's the matter with you?" I was particularly disgusted by her mocking face, and when I was about to walk away, she said, "It's none of my business, but I want to remind you that Xie Chen can sneak away from my bed, and naturally he can also slip away from your bed." β
Her tone was aggressive, and I was embarrassed by what she said, "I'll never fall into you like this again, he's just ...... Something happened early in the morning, and I didn't say I didn't know. β
When I said this, I couldn't help but see the scene of a passionate kiss at the door of the movie theater in front of my eyes. And Nana obviously saw my panic, and said with a sneer: "Lin Xing, don't overestimate your influence on men, they have their own world and principles. Especially Xie Chen, who has been a veteran of the rivers and lakes for many years, why did he capsize in your gutter? With him you better not talk about feelings, because you simply can't afford to play. β
"I don't need you to interfere in my affairs!" I was so angry that I hurried away from the scene with this sentence, only to hear Nana Wu sighing to herself behind me, looking like she knew everything.
To be honest, Nana's words did make me panic, and when I walked out of the Night Phantom, the sun outside was warm, and my back was soaked in a few moments. Along the way, I kept thinking about everything last night and what happened this morning, and after comparing them together, it was like a dream for Nanke. The meaning of Nana's words is obvious, the anecdote of Xie Chen and that girl outside must have been widely circulated, after all, their circle is not big, and Xie Chen is a striking one, I may have been ridiculed as a fool countless times.
When I was depressed, my sister-in-law called and said that my brother's colleague had sent me two watermelons and asked me to go home to eat them together, and buy a bottle of toilet water by the way. I know it's all excuses, my brother always uses some lame excuses to let me go home these days, and he is against my Xie Chen being together.
There is a large shopping mall at the stop sign to my brother's house, which is full of cosmetics from internationally renowned brands. For me, who only bought a bottle of toilet water, it was not easy to just twist and turn in, but the bus ran every half an hour, and there were too many people at the stop sign, so I still entered the mall in order to covet the temporary air conditioning.
But when I passed by the LancΓ΄me counter in France, I actually saw Xie Chen.
Of course, in addition to him, there was the little girl with a ponytail by his side. I hid at the elevator entrance and watched their intimacy, and my teeth trembled with anger. The girl was wearing a pair of denim overalls, her delicate figure was full of vigor, and Xie Chen, who was standing in front of her, was also helping her try an eye cream with interest.
A wave of jealousy suddenly hit, and he has been in everything for so long, he has never done this to me, every time I go out, he just throws me a card and says, "Whatever you want." Although I think he is very handsome in such a generous way, but at the moment, my "position" in his eyes is far from enough.
The devil sent me out, and I took out my phone and dialed his number. Actually, I don't know what I'm trying to do or what kind of answer I want from him. And what am I, a wife who catches adultery? A junior who met the main room?
I quickly regretted it, but he had clearly felt the vibration of his phone. He glanced at the screen, looked a little panicked, smiled at the girl and said something, and then walked to the other side of the counter with one hand over the microphone.
All I could hear was a small cracking sound in my heart, as if something was slowly cracking, so I hung up in a hurry before he was about to connect. Over there, he just frowned, but he didn't mean to call again. I dare say that if it hadn't been for the last bit of reason that restrained me, I would have rushed to them, and then slapped the woman twice, as it had been on TV, and said, "Vixen, shameless." In the background, there will also be a group of pointing onlookers and Xie Chen with a guilty and distressed face.
But I didn't have the courage to do that.
Because I can see from the eyes in Xie Chen and the girl's eyes when they look at each other, they are indeed a couple in love. And I finally understood where I stood β I didn't have a position because I didn't see the light of day. Even though he would often take me to some cocktail parties, I never stood in the sun.
I shouldn't be sad, every time this happens, I feel terrified of my reaction, what am I? In what capacity am I angry?
Xie Chen didn't give me any explanation for what happened that day. I don't need to explain either, because it can be seen from his increasingly radiant look that his love life is very pleasant. I also accepted my fate and willingly took on the role of "little three". The events of his birthday night had faded into my mind, and I didn't know where it ended up, and I couldn't remember it for a long time.
