Zhou Manchun's voice was abnormally cold. It was the first time in three years that she talked to Zhao Tianyu with this attitude. It was as if they were strangers who had never met before.
"I know you hate me, but I don't have much time left. Can't you come and see me for the last time?" Zhao Tianyu said in a pleading tone.
"Okay, the last time." Zhou Manchun said through gritted teeth. Just because he said that he would see her for the last time, Zhou Manchun also wanted to see him.
"Thank you, Xiaochun." Zhao Tianyu's voice had a desolate smile, which made Zhou Manchun's heart hurt.
Zhou Manchun's eyes were red. After hanging up the phone, she lay on the recliner powerlessly. Looking at the lights not far away, her thoughts drifted far away …
If Zhao Tianyu didn't betray her on Valentine's Day, maybe she and Jin Beisen wouldn't have met, and the Zhou family wouldn't have experienced such a change. Maybe everything would still be the same.
However, God made fun of people!
Zhao Tianyu changed, and she changed. Everything changed.
Zhou Manchun never thought that she would break up with Zhao Tianyu one day, because their relationship had never had any problems. They got along very well. She thought that they would walk into the church together and get married.
But all of this was like an illusory dream. The dream was broken, and Zhou Manchun woke up completely.
Suddenly, Zhou Manchun missed the innocent era. She missed the time when there were little love songs lingering in her ears. When Zhao Tianyu accompanied her to study in the UK, he would buy breakfast for Zhou Manchun every day and wait for her downstairs at 7: 30 sharp. Because they were not in the same major, Zhao Tianyu would ride a bicycle to send her to class first. After class, he would appear at the door of her classroom as soon as possible.
The classmates in the class were very envious of Zhou Manchun and said that Zhou Manchun had a good boyfriend.
In a relationship, it was nothing to persist for one or two months. Maybe it was because of hormones, but Zhao Tianyu persisted for two years.
People often miss the past, but so what if they returned to the past? The past was not necessarily so beautiful. What people remembered was not beauty, but regret.
Only now did Zhou Manchun realize that she and Zhao Tianyu might not even be friends. At least for now, Zhou Manchun was not willing to be friends with him.
On the day of the breakup, Zhou Manchun asked Zhao Tianyu for an explanation, but he didn't say anything. Now, Zhao Tianyu said that he wanted to give her an explanation, but Zhou Manchun didn't want to hear it, but for the sake of their years of friendship, Zhou Manchun decided to see him.
That night, Zhou Manchun slept soundly. There were too many things on her mind. She felt so tired that she couldn't breathe.
Detention center.
Zhou Manchun came to this place again. The difference from the last time was that the person she visited was different.
Separated by a cold glass, Zhou Manchun saw Zhao Tianyu. He was wearing a prison uniform, and his originally handsome face was covered with stubble. At first glance, it made people feel a little distressed.
Zhou Manchun frowned slightly and sat down calmly. Through the glass, she looked at Zhao Tianyu's eyes. The arrogance in his pupils was no longer there, leaving only a trace of apology and nostalgia.
Picking up the phone, Zhou Manchun quietly waited for Zhao Tianyu to speak first.
"Xiaochun, I'm sorry …" Zhao Tianyu opened his dry lips. His voice seemed to be stuck in his throat, and it was particularly difficult to pronounce.
"Don't play a bitter drama with me here. Don't you think it's a little too late to say sorry now?" Zhou Manchun furrowed her brows, and her delicate face began to turn ferocious. It was because of him that her life had undergone earth-shattering changes. Jin Beisen had turned her life into a mess, so who could she complain to about her grievances?
"I know it's hard for you to forgive me, but I will say what should be said and what shouldn't be said to you today." Seeing that Zhou Manchun's reaction was so fierce, Zhao Tianyu's eyes flashed a trace of guilt. He destroyed Zhou Manchun's happiness with his own hands.
If he could let go of his hatred at the beginning, maybe things would not have developed into today's situation.
"Oh, okay, I'm listening." Zhou Manchun's face was slightly cold, and she gently twisted her eyebrows. She said resolutely.
"Fifteen years ago, your father bought my father's company. Because of that, our family declined. My parents jumped off a building in one night. That was how I became an orphan. I lived under someone else's roof until I got into No.1 Middle School and met you." Zhao Tianyu said lightly, but his eyes were mixed with chaos.
As soon as the words fell, Zhou Manchun froze on the spot. How could this be? She suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe. Looking at Zhao Tianyu, she had a myriad of thoughts.
"It turns out that from the beginning, you approached me with a purpose." Zhou Manchun felt angry. Her father bought the Zhao Group, but what did it have to do with her? Why did she have to carry such a heavy burden?
Besides, things in the business world change rapidly. No one can predict what will happen in the next second. If she didn't even have the ability to bear these things, how could she be a businessman!
"I'm sorry, Xiaochun, it's my fault, but I really love you." Zhao Tianyu was a little emotional on the other side of the glass. He wanted Zhou Manchun to believe that he really loved her.
"Enough, it's meaningless to say these things now. Zhao Tianyu, if you insist that it was my fault that my father bought your company 15 years ago, then I have already got your so-called retribution. From now on, let us be strangers." His words were full of sadness, grievance, and helplessness. Zhou Manchun sniffled. She couldn't cry!
"Xiaochun, I know you hate me," Zhao Tianyu said, head bowed. "I also know how despicable I was. Please live a happy life from now on. I'll reflect on my actions in there. I just hope that when I come out, you'll be able to forgive me." Zhao Tianyu lowered his head in shame.
"Don't worry, I won't mess up my life because of an unimportant person." Zhou Manchun turned her face away, but her heart hurt like a needle.
Zhao Tianyu smiled and said in a very depressed mood, "This is the best, Xiaochun, completely forget me, and then start your new life."
"Hehe …" Zhou Manchun sneered, but her eyes were full of tears. She asked disappointedly, "How many years are you going to be in prison?"
"The lawyer said, eight years." Zhao Tianyu smiled lightly. He seemed to have seen through life. His next days should be walking on the edge of a knife, like walking on thin ice.
Eight years, it was not long, but it was not short. How many eight years could there be in life?
