Jiang Hongcha turned around and frowned, "Why are you asking for my phone number?"
"To verify your identity," Gu Nianzhi said with a half-smile. Gu Nianzhi said with a half-smile, "You say you're Jiang Hongcha, but I don't know Jiang Hongcha. I have to prove it, right? You understand? "
"You think I'm an imposter?" Jiang Hongcha looked at the sky, speechless, and gave a string of numbers.
Gu Nianzhi entered the numbers into her phone.
Almost immediately, Jiang Hongcha's phone rang.
Gu Nianzhi smiled widely, "It's really Miss Jiang."
Jiang Hongcha thought her smile was irritating, and couldn't help taking out the VCA decal necklace she had prepared in her Hermes platinum bag, "This is Xiawen's birthday present for you. It's your 18th birthday, and I happened to be sick. Xiawen had to stay with me in the hospital, so he couldn't come. I hope you can forgive us. "
Gu Nianzhi didn't care, but she felt her face burn. She pushed Jiang Hongcha's hand away, "It's fine. You don't have to provoke me anymore, it's useless. "
"Really?" Jiang Hongcha saw that Gu Nianzhi's expression had finally changed, and was in a good mood. She smiled as she opened the box, "Look, isn't this the same model as the five-flower necklace you had last time? Oh, right, I picked out the necklace and roses for you. Of course, Xiawen paid for them. "
Gu Nianzhi nodded expressionlessly, "Got it. Is there anything else?"
She had been skeptical of Jiang Hongcha's words, but now that she saw the VCA decal necklace, she was at least 70% convinced.
However, she didn't want Jiang Hongcha to be smug, so she didn't say anything.
Jiang Hongcha shook her head regretfully, "Of course there's something else …" She put her hand on her stomach and looked down, then looked up at Gu Nianzhi with a sweet smile, "But I don't think there's a need to say it now. Since you don't love him, then stop hanging on to him. "
"I'm hanging on to him?" Gu Nianzhi asked in surprise, "When was I hanging on to him? You already said that I'm not his girlfriend, and he has the right to pursue and sleep with other people. You're already with him, and now you're accusing me of hanging on to him? Isn't that double standard? "
Jiang Hongcha blushed at Gu Nianzhi's words. "You don't love him, but you still want him to wait for you? Aren't you leaving him hanging?"
Gu Nianzhi frowned. "That's so funny. You're all saying I don't love him. You're not me, so how do you know I don't love him?"
She had been touched by Mei Xiawen. Mei Xiawen had taken care of her in school, pursued her relentlessly after graduation, and had come to the United States to fight with Xin Xinggao and get injured. She had been chased out of the Boston mansion by He Zhichu and had walked until her feet were blistered. It was Mei Xiawen who had appeared before her and carried her back to the apartment.
With so many emotions gathered together, she finally agreed to the promise of half a year.
She tried very hard to see if she could cultivate a relationship with Mei Xiawen.
First it was Ai Weinan, and then it was Jiang Hongcha. Everyone said that she didn't love Mei Xiawen at all.
What is love?
Gu Nianzhi was deeply confused.
"You love him? If you love him, would you still be calm and indifferent when you know he's sleeping with someone else? " Jiang Hongcha sneered. Her eyebrows were almost raised into a straight line. "Ask yourself, have you ever worried about him? Do you miss him so much that you can't sleep when you can't see him? You haven't been in contact with him for almost two months, and you still say you love him?! I really don't know what's so good about you! "
Jiang Hongcha was also anxious.
Mei Xiawen refused to let go of his relationship with Gu Nianzhi. He was still obsessed with the promise of half a year.
Jiang Hongcha could no longer sit still as the six-month promise was coming up. Gu Nianzhi was about to return to the Empire.
She had to admit that she had probably overestimated her own charm and underestimated Gu Nianzhi's attraction to Mei Xiawen.
Mei Xiawen had slept with her, but they had never been in a formal relationship. Engagement and marriage were out of the question.
She had looked around and decided that Mei Xiawen was the best. He was the perfect match for her in every way. He was also her first love. She didn't want to let go of him again.
Gu Nianzhi was flabbergasted. She was suddenly speechless.
"I don't have anything good to say." After a while, she lowered her eyes and said coldly, "If you want to play tricks, go find Mei Xiawen. Don't look for me. I don't have time to play games with you. Goodbye. "
Gu Nianzhi called the waiter to pay the bill and left.
She stood in the elevator and stared blankly at the slowly ascending floor. She kept thinking about what Jiang Hongcha had said.
Mei Xiawen had done a good job when Ai Weinan had pestered him. Gu Nianzhi trusted him in that regard.
But this Jiang Hongcha was different from Ai Weinan. Because of the Weibo post "Red Tea's Sky," Gu Nianzhi felt that Jiang Hongcha was different from Ai Weinan.
She wasn't sure now.
Jiang Hongcha's words about whether or not she loved him made Gu Nianzhi tremble with fear. She even felt a little guilty.
Yes, she didn't have those feelings for Mei Xiawen.
But she did have those feelings for someone else …
When she saw him smile at someone else, she felt as if the sky had collapsed. She was so angry that she wanted nothing more than to take revenge on society.
When she couldn't see him, not only did she worry about him, but she also couldn't eat or drink.
When she saw a similar figure on the street, she would stare at it for a long time.
If she found out he was sleeping with someone else …
Gu Nianzhi swayed. She took a deep breath and held the elevator railing. Not only was it difficult to breathe, but her heart was about to stop.
No, she couldn't think about it anymore.
Stop, please stop. She was going to commit a crime if she kept thinking about it …
Back at the apartment, Gu Nianzhi was listless. She didn't chatter like usual during dinner.
Zhao Liangze was not used to it and glanced at her several times. "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? "
Gu Nianzhi was only the most obedient girl when she was sick and in front of Huo Shao. They already knew that.
Gu Nianzhi shook her head. "No. I'm feeling very well. "
Zhao Liangze was speechless.
He pulled up a chair and sat next to Gu Nianzhi. He propped his head on his hand and looked at her. "Quick, tell Brother Ze what happened?"
"Is it that obvious?" Gu Nianzhi put down her bowl and chopsticks and wiped her face.
"You have the words' I'm very annoyed 'written all over your face." Zhao Liangze pinched her ear. "Is there anything you can't solve?"
"It's like that." Gu Nianzhi thought for a moment, then told Zhao Liangze about her encounter with Jiang Hongcha. She then gave Jiang Hongcha's phone number to Zhao Liangze. "Brother Ze, can you help me check if she really deleted the recording?"
Zhao Liangze was furious and slammed the table. "How dare she! How dare she secretly record it! Who does she think she is? The CIA?! "
He returned to his room and opened his app to connect to the Internet. He quickly found Jiang Hongcha's phone and searched it.
The recording had indeed been deleted, and so had the cloud backup.
However, Zhao Liangze saw some embarrassing photos in Jiang Hongcha's cloud backup account.
"What the f * ck! Mei Xiawen, how dare you! "Zhao Liangze looked through the photos one by one. He was furious." How dare you cheat on Nianzhi?! "
He stormed out of his bedroom and went to Gu Nianzhi's room. "What's your relationship with Mei Xiawen?"
"We were classmates." Gu Nianzhi straightened her clothes in front of the closet. "We're friends. Nothing else."
"He's not your boyfriend?"
"Of course not." Gu Nianzhi smiled bitterly and picked up a dress to shake. She now understood why she had hesitated in front of Mei Xiawen.
She didn't love him. She really did have someone else in her heart. Her feelings for that person had changed long before she knew it.
But she couldn't bring herself to say it in front of Zhao Liangze.
Zhao Liangze rubbed his chin and frowned at Gu Nianzhi for a long time. "He's really not your boyfriend? Nianzhi, don't be afraid. If Mei Xiawen mistreats you, I'll help you! And Big Xiong and Huo Shao too! "
Gu Nianzhi's hand loosened and the dress almost fell to the floor.
Flustered, she hugged the dress and said without turning her head, "He's really not my boyfriend. And now that I know about him and Jiang Hongcha, I won't have any other thoughts. "
"Then do you like him?" Zhao Liangze walked over to her and turned her around by the shoulders. "Tell me the truth. Do you like him or not? If you do, I'll drag him back to you even if I have to break his legs! "
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help giggling. "Brother Ze, you've never been in a relationship before. How would you know these things?"
"Pfft! I've never seen a pig walk before, but I've eaten pork before! How could these things be difficult for me, the King of Hackers?! "Zhao Liangze's handsome face lit up with self-satisfaction. He was very charming.
Gu Nianzhi looked at him, but only felt that he was like a big brother that warmed her heart. It was completely different from the way she felt when she thought of Huo Shaoheng.
She closed her eyes and leaned against the door of the closet. "I really don't like him. It's time to end things with him," she said in a low voice.
"Didn't you give him six months? If he doesn't change his mind within six months, you'll be with him? "Zhao Liangze remembered clearly." What if he has a change of heart within six months? "
"If he has a change of heart, then of course it doesn't count. I didn't promise to be with him. "Gu Nianzhi shook her head." Besides, I don't love him. Why should I force myself to be with him? "
To Gu Nianzhi, this matter couldn't be simpler.
Neither of them had feelings for each other, so naturally they would break up.
…
That night, Gu Nianzhi couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned in bed, lost in thought.
She finally understood her feelings. She wasn't overjoyed. Instead, she was terrified and pained.
Did Huo Shao already have a girlfriend?
Could she still like him in secret?
If Huo Shao knew what she was thinking, would he teach her a lesson?
She suddenly remembered that he had been so distant from her for the past six months. Had he already seen through her dark, unspeakable heart?!
Gu Nianzhi suddenly covered her head with the blanket and let out a low moan. If it was true, she didn't want to live anymore …
She did not have the face to see him again. Just let her live quietly like a dog …
Gu Nianzhi didn't sleep that night and woke up the next morning with bruises under her eyes.
Zhao Liangze looked at her face. "What's wrong? Did you steal chickens last night? "
"You're the one who went out to steal a chicken." Gu Nianzhi bickered with him. "I studied all night. Can't I?"
"Fine, even our genius girl has to study all night. How do you expect others to live?" Zhao Liangze chuckled and peeled a hard-boiled egg for her. "It's almost Christmas. Let's go back, shall we?"
"Yes." Gu Nianzhi lowered her head to eat the porridge. "It's the holidays here on Christmas Eve, so we can leave the United States a day earlier."
In other words, they would leave the United States on December 23rd and return to the Huaxia Empire on December 24th.
Her half-year internship was finally over.
He Zhichu had already returned to B University in the capital of the Hua Xia Empire to prepare for the start of the next semester. He had already bought plane tickets for her and Brother Huang to return to the Hua Xia Empire.
Gu Nianzhi's ticket was back to C City, while Brother Huang was going back to the Imperial Capital.
"That's great, we're finally going back. The food here has ruined my appetite. "Zhao Liangze shook his head and hummed a tune as he happily cleared the dishes.
Gu Nianzhi dawdled for a while before asking, "Brother Ze, has Huo Shao returned from his mission?"
"Not yet." Zhao Liangze shook his head as he wiped the dishes. "Big Xiong and I haven't been able to contact him. But I heard he'll be back soon. If it's two months, he should be back around the 17th or 18th. "
Gu Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief, but was immediately stifled again.
She silently carried her backpack, left her apartment, and walked to Capitol Hill.
On the way, she gave Mei Xiawen a call.
"Nianzhi?! It's really you?! How have you been? " Mei Xiawen was overjoyed. Gu Nianzhi finally couldn't hold it in anymore … The smugness in his heart was overflowing.
Gu Nianzhi smiled wryly and said quietly, "Class Rep, I'm fine. How about you?"
"Class Rep? Why are you still calling me Class Rep? "Mei Xiawen was unhappy." What did I say? You'll be my girlfriend in ten days! "
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
She took a deep breath and switched the phone from her right hand to her left. She coughed and said, "Class Rep, I think it's better for us to be friends. We're not suitable as lovers. "
"What did you say?!" Mei Xiawen froze. He couldn't believe his ears and couldn't help looking at his phone to make sure it was Nianzhi's number. "Are you really Nianzhi?"
"Yeah." Gu Nianzhi stopped at the bottom of the steps of the Capitol Hill building. She turned sideways and continued, "I told you before that I'd give us six months. If you still want to be with me in the next six months, we can give it a try."
"I really do want to be with you! Are you going back on your word? "Mei Xiawen's heart was pounding. He couldn't describe how he felt.
He didn't have the unforgettable love for Gu Nianzhi that he had for Jiang Hongcha. However, he had always known that Gu Nianzhi was more suitable to be his wife than Jiang Hongcha.
