When Qin Zhi 'ai returned home, Xu Wennuan was washing vegetables in the kitchen.
When Xu Wennuan heard the commotion, she ran out of the kitchen, her hands dripping with sweat. With a pair of red eyes, she poked her head out of the door and said, "Xiao 'ai, come and help me wash the vegetables for the hotpot later. I'm so hungry."
Before Qin Zhi 'ai could reply to Xu Wennuan, she dashed back into the kitchen.
Qin Zhi 'ai changed her shoes and walked into the bedroom. As she changed into her pajamas, she peeked into Xu Wennuan's room. It was clean, as if the sound of her throwing things in a fit of anger had been an illusion.
Qin Zhi 'ai withdrew her gaze and glanced at the balcony. There were several black garbage bags piled there. Xu Wennuan must have cleaned them up before she returned home.
After changing into her pajamas, Qin Zhi 'ai saw Xu Wennuan at the dining table.
Qin Zhi 'ai went up to help, glancing at Xu Wennuan from time to time. She had something to ask, but she swallowed it back.
They sat down facing each other. Qin Zhi 'ai put some lamb into the boiling pot and stirred it with chopsticks. Xu Wennuan suddenly remembered something. She ran to the refrigerator, opened it, and took out two cans of beer. "Xiao' ai, do you want some?"
Qin Zhi 'ai shook her head. "I'll drink milk."
"Alright …" Xu Wennuan didn't insist. She took a bottle of milk from the milk carton on the shelf.
Xu Wennuan sat down and opened the bottle of beer. She tilted her head back and gulped down half the bottle like she was drinking plain water. She then picked up a piece of lamb with her chopsticks, put it in her mouth, and chewed with a smile on her face.
Qin Zhi 'ai looked at Xu Wennuan's smile and smiled back. After that, she called out, "Nuannuan …"
Xu Wennuan seemed to know that Qin Zhi 'ai was going to ask about her and Wu Hao. She raised her beer bottle and clinked it with the milk bottle next to Qin Zhi' ai's and interrupted her. "Come on, cheers!"
Qin Zhi 'ai drank two mouthfuls of milk and looked at Xu Wennuan.
Xu Wennuan put two pieces of meat in Qin Zhi 'ai's bowl and gestured for her to eat while it was hot.
Qin Zhi 'ai could tell that Xu Wennuan didn't want to talk about her and Wu Hao, so she didn't ask.
But later, when Xu Wennuan opened the second bottle of beer, she took the initiative to say, "Xiao 'ai, Wu Hao and I are not getting married."
In fact, Qin Zhi 'ai had already predicted that Xu Wennuan and Wu Hao's wedding would be ruined, but when she heard it from Xu Wennuan, her fingertips still trembled.
"But Xiao 'ai …" Xu Wennuan lowered her eyes and tried her best to smile before she continued. "I didn't break up with Wu Hao."
"To be honest, these days, I feel like I'm in a dream. Many times, I think I'll wake up the next day and find out that Wu Hao and Jiang Qianqian aren't together at all."
"I'm very angry and sad. I even said a lot of nasty things when I quarreled with Wu Hao just now. But Xiao 'ai, do you know? I can't bring myself to say the word 'break up' … "
Tears rolled down the corners of Xu Wennuan's eyes in large droplets. She raised the bottle of wine and gulped down half of it before she continued to speak in a trembling voice. "Because when I was with Wu Hao, I never thought that breaking up would be part of our story."
