Chapter 689: Provocation
Chu Jingyun sat next to Ou Xiaoning and said, "Hello, student Xiao Ning, I am Teacher Chu Jingyun from the Foreign Languages Department, a good friend of your Mr. Lin. This is not our first meeting today, I think you might still have an impression of me..."
Ou Xiaoning continued to cry, ignoring Chu Jingyun.
Chu Jingyun didn’t mind and continued, "Do you know? Student Xiao Ning, seeing you in such pain now, I really ache for myself, because I don’t even have the chance to cry my heart out... You probably won’t believe it when I tell you this, but I’ve loved a man for almost seven years, and yet, just recently, he suddenly got married, and the bride wasn’t me..."
Ou Xiaoning’s sobs momentarily paused, then became much quieter, and He Meisui and Lv Nan Nan looked at Chu Jingyun with surprise.
Meanwhile, Shi Nuan sat there silently, a part of her heart trembling.
Others might not know who the man Chu Jingyun was talking about, but she certainly did.
Knew it very clearly.
Chu Jingyun continued, saying, "I heard you and your boyfriend have been together for four years, and honestly, I’m quite envious because those four years were truly filled with happiness and joy, with many warm and sweet memories. I also heard that your boyfriend treats you very well, always spoiling you. But my seven years, when I look back, are filled only with bitterness..."
"I was once the closest person to him, but ever since he got married, probably... out of fear that his wife might misunderstand something, he decisively cut ties with me, denying we were ever so close, denying that I had accompanied him through the most difficult seven years of his life... Honestly, compared to you, I am not only a failure but also truly pathetic!"
"But even so, I haven’t given up on myself. I also think that he and his wife won’t last long, and I don’t believe his wife, whom he has known truly for no more than three months, could have the same depth as the seven years between us. I just assume he has temporarily lost his way, and I will wait for the day he returns, no matter how long it takes, I will wait..."
Shi Nuan’s eyes twitched slightly, at last turning to look at Chu Jingyun.
Yet Chu Jingyun seemed not to see her at all.
In fact, from the moment she entered until now, she seemed never to have really looked at Shi Nuan seriously.
As if she was really here just to comfort Ou Xiaoning.
Her consolation worked, as Ou Xiaoning moved slightly due to her words.
After a while, she finally lifted her head to look at Chu Jingyun.
He Meisui couldn’t help but call out, "Xiao Ning..."
Ou Xiaoning sniffled, her eyes still brimming with tears. She glanced at He Meisui before resting her gaze back on Chu Jingyun.
She asked, "But Teacher Chu, he’s already married to another woman, why would you still be so foolish? He’s already married another woman!"
"So what? Life is so long, who can guarantee that the person by your side now will still be there when you’re old? Since that’s the case, I’m not afraid to wait, and I believe I will always be able to wait for him... because..."
She paused for a moment, her eyes glancing at Shi Nuan either deliberately or unintentionally.
Just then, Shi Nuan was also looking at her.
Their gazes met, and an unspoken electric current danced and hovered in the air.
Shi Nuan’s fingers instinctively clenched, her nails digging into her palm with a slight pain.
Chu Jingyun’s voice came at that moment, very light and gentle, yet every word was spoken with resolute determination.
She said, "Because I love him more than that woman does!"
