Chapter 215 What to do with Brother 3?
Jiang Li jumped up from his seat as if he had been electrocuted, staring at Murong Xue in front of him with wide eyes, his voice rising unconsciously in surprise: "How could it be so sudden? Wasn't it agreed that you would have a full six months of vacation? But now you've been back for less than three months!" As he spoke, he shook his head in disbelief, as if trying to get rid of this shocking news from his mind.
Since meeting Murong Xue, they have spent many wonderful days together in the past three months. However, at this moment, when Jiang Li heard that she was going to return to the northwest suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if an invisible hand was tightly grasping his heart. His originally rosy little mouth was now pouted high, like a wronged child, with a look of reluctance and sadness on his face.
Facing Jiang Li's questioning, Murong Xue lowered her head slightly, avoiding his confused and disappointed gaze. She bit her lips lightly, hesitated for a moment and said, "Something happened in the northwest... I need to go back and deal with it." She said this reluctantly, even she felt that this excuse was too far-fetched, but at this moment, this was the most appropriate excuse she could think of.
In fact, the reason why Murong Xue was so eager to leave this place was not just because of the so-called Northwest Affairs. The real reason was that since the matter between her and Jiang Bu had no result, why bother to continue to entangle. After careful consideration, she decided to cut the Gordian knot and completely end this complicated relationship. However, she could not confide these secrets deep in her heart to the simple and kind Jiang Li. She was afraid of hurting his innocent heart, and she was even more worried that once the truth was told, it would put both of them in a more embarrassing and painful situation.
"But, but..." But what about the third brother? Jiang Li was extremely anxious, and the following words were stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say them. After all, the window paper between Sister Mu and the third brother has not been broken, and the relationship between them is still in a delicate and hazy state. Moreover, since Sister Mu chose to remain silent, she must have her own considerations and difficulties. However, when Jiang Li thought of the third brother, his heart was as heavy as a big stone. How should the third brother deal with it? Has the third brother noticed some clues today? No, no, no matter what, she must find a way to let the third brother know about this as soon as possible.
"So, Sister Mu, did you come to say goodbye to me today? If I hadn't sent you an invitation by chance today, you probably wouldn't have planned to tell me this, right?" Jiang Li pouted angrily, her face full of resentment, her big watery eyes showing a trace of grievance, just like a wounded little rabbit, making people feel pity for her. Looking at Jiang Li like this, Murong Xue couldn't help but laugh softly.
"Haha! How could that be? In fact, I have been planning to find a suitable opportunity to tell you about this in the past few days." Murong Xue smiled, gently pulled Jiang Li's sleeve, and pressed him to sit on a chair beside her.
"To be honest, I don't have many friends here in the capital. You are the only good friend I have met and am familiar with during this trip back to the capital. How could I just leave quietly without saying hello to you?" Perhaps it was due to her personality, or because of the confusing mystery of her life that had always lingered in her mind, from childhood to adulthood, few people were willing to play and have fun with her.
Whenever she recalled the past, she would always think of that childhood memory. She still remembered that she met a friend by chance at a grand court banquet. From then on, no matter where she went, that figure would follow her closely. At that time, she was withdrawn and introverted, and spoke little. During the journey of the two people, her ears were filled with the boy's endless rhetoric, which even made her feel a little bored and anxious. However, it was such a seemingly ordinary white boy who raised the fragrant roast duck in his hand high and handed it to her to taste. At that moment, it was like a warm sunshine that penetrated the layers of haze and shone into the depths of her lonely heart, and also gave her a little beautiful vision of future life.
However, now... all of this is no longer under her control. With the growth of age, the frustration of life keeps coming like a tide, and the once carefree heart has to be bound by many factors. Those dreams and aspirations in youth gradually become blurred in the face of reality; I once thought that I could move forward and be free and unrestrained, but in the end, the edges and corners were smoothed by time.
Every time she faced a choice, she was filled with entanglement and struggle. She wanted to act according to her own wishes, but was worried about unexpected consequences; she wanted to stick to her inner principles, but the pressure from the outside world made it difficult for her to breathe. These frustrations and concerns, like heavy shackles, were tightly put on her body, making it difficult for her to take a step forward.
Well, if that's the case, then don't think about these troubles anymore! The more you think about it, the more painful it will be. It's better to put it behind you temporarily and enjoy a moment of peace. Maybe time will slowly heal all the pain and let her find her brave and fearless self again.
