At the beginning of May, the Shanghai market has not yet entered summer, but the outdoor temperature is rising day by day, and you can already wear cool summer clothes.

Huang Manman was wearing a printed long skirt, holding his roommate He Huan, and the two went out of the dormitory building, ready to go to the cafeteria to buy lunch.

She moved back to school after finishing her internship last week.

According to what she said to He Yuan, she wants to catch the tail of college life and enjoy campus life again.

They will defend their graduation in mid-May, and after the graduation defense, it is time to end their university life once and for all.

Walking on the boulevard, surrounded by energetic college students, Huang Manman, who has experienced a handful of working life, feels that he has finally become young and returned to the arms of his peers.

He Huan suddenly touched her waist with his elbow and gestured with his eyes, "There is a handsome guy at ten o'clock." ”

Huang Manman looked over tacitly, and then retracted his gaze in disappointment, "It's okay." ”

He Huan pursed his lips and said in disgust, "Your vision is now being raised by your family He Yuan." ”

Huang Manman smiled, in the face of such a painless ridicule, he was already able to stop his heart.

However, He Huan didn't let go of this topic easily, and asked curiously, "Hey, what are your plans after graduating from He Yuan?" ”

"You've been abusing us for four years."

She smiled, "I don't think I have a graduation certificate in one hand and a marriage certificate in the other!" ”

Huang Manman's ears were slightly hot, and he glanced at He Huan with disgust, "It's still early." ”

After a pause, she added, "After graduation, I plan to draw comics full-time." ”

In the four years of college, she has also achieved a little success in comics, and now her monthly manuscript fee income far exceeds that of her peers, and she really likes comics, and even made a close friend because of comics.

It's the career she loves, and she has a confidant, and she's very satisfied.

As for He Yuan, I wish she was drawing comics full-time, because she was free enough in terms of time.

He Yuan often said that he could take her with him on business trips in the future.

He Huan nodded in agreement, expressing envy, "It's good to have a skill." ”

"What about He Yuan? What are his plans? ”

"You still live together?"

This time, Huang Manman fell silent, and Xu Yu shook his head again.

"He said that there are arrangements at home, and he will tell me when they are discussed."

He Huan didn't think much about it, after all, from He Yuan's dress, words and deeds, it could be seen that the family conditions were good.

Huang Manman had the same idea as her, guessing that He Yuan's family might want him to work in a law firm that would better contribute to his career.

She has thought about it, no matter where He Yuan's work is set, she can accompany him, and when the time comes, they will rent a house near his company, like now, simple, happy and ordinary life.

After buying lunch and returning to the dormitory, the other two roommates sent a group message in the dormitory saying that they were not coming back.

Huang Manman locked the dormitory door, and before he could sit down, the mobile phone on the table popped up a video invitation.

The video was called by He Yuan.

The corners of Huang Manman's lips curled, and in He Huan's teasing sight, he put on headphones and connected to the video.

"What are you doing?" He Yuan's handsome and good-looking face occupies the screen, and his voice is clearer and more beautiful.

Huang Manman lifted the packing box in front of him, and his voice was soft, "Eat, what about you?" ”

He Yuan also turned the camera to the takeaway box in front of him, "I'm also eating." ”

The conversation between the two was a bit boring, but they enjoyed the blandness.

The video is still continuing, Huang Manman and He Yuan are eating silently most of the time, only occasionally chatting a few words, looking at each other's faces on the mobile phone screen, they feel extremely relieved.

Before hanging up the video, He Yuan suddenly spoke, "Vines." ”

Huang Manman: "Huh? What's wrong? ”

Her gaze was still as clear and clean as it had been four years ago when they had first been together.

He Yuan hesitated and finally hooked the corners of his lips and smiled warmly, "It's okay, I remind you not to lie in bed after eating, and be careful of accumulating food." ”

Huang Manman remembered his bad habit of lying down after eating, and hung up the video in shame.

In the well-lit office, He Yuan, who was still smiling gently one second, sank his face after putting down his phone the next second.

He rubbed his brow lightly, as if he had encountered some thorny problem, and his body exuded low pressure.

Halfway through, he took out his phone and sent a message to a contact named [Father].

He Yuan: [I will not go abroad for further study, nor will I marry the heir of the Bai family, I have died of this heart. 】

After sending this message, he seemed to unload his burden, and then took his mobile phone and walked out of the office with firm steps.

A middle-aged man in his thirties walked over, and when he saw He Yuan leaving without looking back, he was stunned in place, and after reacting, he could only chase after He Yuan's back, and at the same time shouted in a panic, "Young master, the boss asked you to wait for him in the office." ”

--

The next day, the Shanghai Stock Exchange rained heavily without warning.

Huang Manman watched He Huan and the other two roommates go to the internship company to report under the torrential rain, and while she was glad that she had finished her internship, she couldn't help but worry about He Yuan.

Maybe it was the bad weather that affected the signal, and she didn't contact He Yuan for the time being.

Looking at the pouring rain outside, inexplicably, she felt a little uneasy.

Heavy rains continued into the afternoon, and most of the city was almost submerged in stagnant water.

The rain had stopped for a while, but the dark sky outside seemed to suggest that the rainstorm was far from over.

The air became dull after the rain, Huang Manman stood on the balcony to breathe, and was about to send another WeChat message to He Yuan, when an unfamiliar local number suddenly called in.

She didn't hesitate and chose to connect.

In the next second, a slightly cold middle-aged female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello Huang Manman, I'm He Yuan's mother, I think it's time for us to meet."

……

At the café outside the school, the guests who took shelter from the rain took advantage of the rain to stop and left in a swarm.

The café returned to cold silence, and as soon as Huang Manman entered, he saw a middle-aged woman sitting in a window seat wearing professional clothes.

The other party's long hair is meticulously tied behind his head, the whole person is very capable, his temperament is cold and elegant, and he looks very distant.

In the dark, Huang Manman guessed her identity, not only because she had an outstanding appearance that was five or six points similar to He Yuan, but also because she faintly felt that the other party and her were not so harmonious.

She felt that He Yuan's mother was not good, but she didn't choose to escape, took a deep breath, and walked over.

It was raining lightly outside, and it was gradually getting heavier.

There was no one in the seat opposite Huang Manman, but she sat silently in place as if she hadn't noticed, sitting from dawn to dark, as if turning into a dry stone.

She no longer had any vitality and vigor in her, and became lifeless.

When the waiter in the café came to inquire again, Huang Manman's body stiffened and got up to leave.

The rain outside was not light, and she rushed in, forgetting that she still had an umbrella in her bag.

Back in the dormitory, she was drenched in soup.

The roommates gathered around with concern.

"Oh my God, what's wrong with you?"

"Go take a shower!"

He Huan was concerned but complained, "Didn't bring an umbrella? Why don't you know to call us, we'll send it to you! ”

"Such a heavy rain, are you stupid!"

Huang Manman smiled bitterly, yes, she is stupid, she is the number one fool.

The mechanical response was two, and she walked into the bathroom with clean clothes.

The shower sprayed hot water, and the small bathroom was filled with fog in a few moments.

Huang Manman stood under the shower, crying bitterly, tears falling with hot water.

At this moment, she was helpless and desperate.

It seemed that He Yuan's mother's high-minded voice sounded in her ears again, checking her family's work background completely, and saying things that made her fall into an ice cave in an understated tone.

It turns out that the background of his family is so strong, it turns out that the gap between them is so big, it turns out that her mother can make her parents and family unemployed in an instant with a casual wave of her hand, it turns out that he said before that his family likes her very much, and they all lied to her.

In the eyes of his family, she is a clown who jumps off the beam, and she is a gold-worshipping girl who tries to climb into the bottom of the upper class society through men.

He Yuan's mother didn't say a word of swearing, but the meaning of every sentence revealed an attitude, she was not worthy.

And also......

"He Yuan gave up the invitation of a prestigious university with a full scholarship abroad for you four years ago, as well as the admission qualification of Beijing University."

"Four years later, are you going to delay him? He already has the opportunity to go abroad for further study, you have to understand that in a circle like ours, if He Yuan is not strong enough to support the He family, he will be swallowed by others and there will be no bones left. ”

"The business that his father and grandfather worked hard for will be ruined in his hands."

"Huang Manman, can you afford this responsibility?"

"What can you do for him?"

"In the past four years, my son has protected you very well, and he has done his best."

The sound of the water washed away the memories, and Huang Manman cried so much that she couldn't help herself.

She hated her incompetence, her inability to help He Yuan, and the risk of losing her family because of one of her relationships.

Her whole being was plunged into a whirlpool of pain.

In the dormitory, He Huan and the others also heard Huang Manman's cry.

The three of them looked at each other, and when they saw Huang Manman coming out, they immediately greeted him.

He Huan also specially brewed a cup of brown sugar water for Huang Manman.

"Vines? What's wrong? Isn't there anything difficult? ”

"We'll figure it out for you."

After He Huan finished speaking, the other two roommates nodded in agreement.

Huang Manman's eyes were red and swollen, and his voice was hoarse.

"I'm fine, I want to rest early."

After saying that, she drank the brown sugar water and climbed on the top bunk.

He Huan and the three of them had no choice, so they all went to bed, and then turned off the lights, trying to provide a good rest environment for Huang Manman.

In the darkness, Huang Manman's tears fell silently, wetting the pillow.

--

The next day, the weather was still not good, and the gloomy and depressed people were out of breath.

When Huang Manman got up, she was left alone in the dormitory, and He Huan and the others all went out to the internship company.

Her eyes were swollen to a slit, her vision was blocked, and she had to grope her way down the escalator to get out of bed.

On the mobile phone that was turned to silent, there were seven or eight missed calls, all of which were from He Yuan.

There are also more than a dozen unread messages on WeChat, most of which are from He Yuan, and two are from Huang's father.

Father Huang: [Good baby, Dad has been promoted! ] 】

Father Huang: [Send you a red envelope to be happy, don't tell your mother yet, I'm going to surprise her.] 】

The red envelope is only 200 yuan, which represents more of the joy of Huang's father.

But this became the last straw that crushed the camel, Huang Manman gritted his teeth, first replied to Huang's father with a coquettish circle emoji, and then clicked into the chat page with He Yuan, his fingers trembling and typing.

Huang Manman: [He Yuan, let's break up. 】

……

When He Yuan received Huang Manman's news, he was in the jewelry store with his friend Yi Weiliang.

He's picking out a diamond ring for his proposal.

Different from his serious and serious appearance, Yi Weiliang was a little careless.

"Ah Yuan, do you really want to get married directly with Manman?"

"Your parents know that they will blow it up, right?"

His family and He Yuan's family are world friends, of course, he understands He Yuan's current difficult situation, but he didn't expect He Yuan to be so ruined.

He Yuan lowered his head and carefully compared the two diamond rings in front of him, wanting to choose the one that Huang Manman would like.

After listening to his friend's words, he didn't even raise his head, but his voice became cold, "It's not their turn to take care of my business." ”

Recently, the family has been pressing step by step, which makes him feel very crisis, and he wants to put an insurance bolt on the relationship between him and Huang Manman, so that no one can break them up.

So he thought of getting a license to get married, and wanted to use this method to make his parents die.

He will never be separated from Huang Manman in his life.

Yi Weiliang looked at the high-spirited He Yuan and sighed in his heart, he always felt that this matter was not so smooth.

Sure enough, in the next second, after He Yuan took out his mobile phone and glanced at the screen, his whole face changed and he rushed out of the jewelry store.

"Huh?" Yi Weiliang was stunned, and then in the puzzled eyes of the shopping guide, he cheekily chased after him.

"Holy!"

"He Yuan, what are you crazy about!"

……

Huang Manman and He Yuan broke up.

Business and law students were disappointed, but the model couple on campus couldn't escape the curse of breaking up after graduation.

Everyone only treats this matter as a piece of gossip, and only those who are extremely familiar with the two parties can understand what kind of changes have happened to Huang Manman and He Yuan.

Huang Manman lost ten pounds of weight and cut off his long hair, as if he had lost all his spirit.

He Yuan, on the other hand, learned to drink heavily and smoke.

On the day she returned to school to get her graduation certificate, Huang Manman deliberately avoided He Huan and them, and chose to go to the head teacher during the lunch break.

The sun is warm, as if it can dispel all darkness.

Huang Manman walked slowly on the boulevard, as if he was wandering all the time.

It wasn't until she approached the school gate that she stopped.

Yi Weiliang, who deliberately came to the school to block people, walked up to Huang Manman step by step, pulling the corners of his lips and sneering.

"Huang Manman." He said, "You are so cruel! ”

It stiffly discounted He Yuan's proud backbone, but no matter how He Yuan prayed, he was not soft-hearted.

In all these years, he had never seen such a humble embarrassment as his brother.

Huang Manman froze in place, she put on makeup, but the heavy foundation didn't block the dark circles on her eyelids.

Her lips pursed, as if she wanted to say something.

But Yi Weiliang interrupted her mercilessly, his expression was a little indifferent, "Huang Manman, don't regret it." ”
