After arriving at Chen Jingrong's home, Mo Zixi's heart was heavy. But, even if Xingzhe hadn't been born, if he had known that Chen Jingrong had lied to him from the start, he wouldn't have stayed with her for so long.
After all, how could a relationship that was built on deception be real?
At this time, Chen Jingrong was about to leave the house. As soon as she opened the door and saw Mo Zixi, she immediately smiled, "Did something happen at home?"
"Yes and no," Mo Zixi walked into the house and sat down on the sofa.
"What's wrong?" Chen Jingrong asked as she knelt down in front of Mo Zixi.
"Jingrong, there's something I want to confirm with you," Mo Zixi lifted his head and looked at Chen Jingrong.
"What's so serious?"
"On that night 4 years ago, did you really sleep with me?" Mo Zixi asked in seriousness.
Chen Jingrong's expression turned unnatural as her hands began to tremble.
"Why … why are you suddenly asking about this? If it wasn't me, who else could it be? "Chen Jingrong immediately explained." Did you hear some rumors? "
"Afterwards, we were together for 4 years. I felt like we had enough feelings for each other and we could live together. But, you rejected me and told me that you wanted to wait until we got married. Was it because you were afraid of revealing that you were still a virgin?" Mo Zixi said in self-ridicule. "I've always respected your decision. But, from the looks of it, I'm thankful that you didn't do anything to stop us from progressing further."
"Of course, if that's the case, the other problem becomes even more serious. If I can't find out anything, how do you plan to resolve the matter? Do you plan to go to the hospital for surgery? "
Chen Jingrong stood up because she suddenly didn't know how to respond.
"I'm disappointed that you're willing to do anything for the sake of a relationship."
"At the same time, my heart hurts. We've been together for 4 years, but I still haven't seen through you. You're too good at pretending."
Chen Jingrong's body trembled. She didn't know what else Mo Zixi knew.
"So, Jingrong, let's just forget about it. I don't want to spend the rest of my life with someone that's lied to me for 4 years. It would be tiring for me to keep guessing about you."
"This is good for all of us. Today, I came here to talk about this. I won't spread this news. Let's part ways peacefully."
After speaking, Mo Zixi stood up from the sofa and prepared to leave. But, Chen Jingrong suddenly wrapped her arms around him, "Zixi, listen to me … I really didn't lie to you again. It was just that one time. It was really just that one time."
"Jingrong, leave both of us with some dignity. I'm not the only person you've hurt."
After speaking, Mo Zixi removed Chen Jingrong's hand from his waist, "Our relationship officially ends here."
Chen Jingrong tried to grab onto Mo Zixi's hand, but Mo Zixi shook her off. Chen Jingrong couldn't accept this outcome, so she chased after Mo Zixi barefoot. She wanted to cling to him, but Mo Zixi did not even look back.
He knew that if he showed even the slightest bit of reluctance, he would be being irresponsible towards Chen Jingrong, Yao Anqi and Xingzhe.
So, he directly left Chen Jingrong's home and headed over to his friend's home to have a drink with them.
"Have you explained things to Chen Jingrong?" one of his friends asked. "Did you wrong her?"
"She admitted to it," Mo Zixi nodded as he poured himself a glass of wine in a self-mocking manner.
"I never thought that Chen Jingrong would be such a terrible person. Zixi, you can't be blamed. Even though we've been classmates with Chen Jingrong for so many years, I couldn't tell that she was so good at pretending."
Mo Zixi let out a laugh and drank the rest of the wine in his glass.
"Since it's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore. Brother, you already have a son, shouldn't you be celebrating?"
"You've already resolved the matter with Chen Jingrong, but what about Yao Anqi? What do you plan to do? She gave birth to your son, so it's hard for her to get married again. Aren't you going to take responsibility? "
"I just broke up with my ex-girlfriend, yet I'm already looking for another woman. I think I'm quite a jerk," Mo Zixi explained. "Let nature take its course. Luckily, she's not a scary person. The most important thing right now is to take care of Xingzhe's health."
"Haiz, I understand."
After hearing this, Mo Zixi smiled. Who in this world could empathize with someone else's pain?
No one!
They were simply comforting him!
Like this, the couple continued to drink and chat until late at night. Afterwards, Mo Zixi prepared to return home, but his friend stopped him, "You should sleep here tonight. Chen Jingrong might be outside your house right now."
Mo Zixi patted his friend on the shoulder and smiled, "No need, I'm going to the hospital."
"OK, be careful. Are you sure you're not drunk?"
"I'm very sober right now!" After speaking, Mo Zixi grabbed his jacket and headed to the military hospital. Inside, he found Yao Anqi still busy with work.
Was she made of iron? Didn't she need to rest for 24 hours?
But, as he watched her treat the patient's wound in such a professional manner, Mo Zixi stood to one side without alerting anyone. Afterwards, he noticed the mole on Yao Anqi's earlobe … At that moment, Mo Zixi felt like a box of memories had been opened and everything that happened that night replayed in his mind.
At that time, he noticed the mole, but he couldn't find it on Chen Jingrong's earlobe, so he thought he was imagining things.
Plus, apart from that night, he didn't pay attention to Yao Anqi at all. So, he had no idea that this woman was the one that had intimate contact with him.
"Dr. Yao, the surgery is about to start. Are you going to be able to hold on?" a nurse asked Yao Anqi as she ran.
Yao Anqi turned around and nodded her head, "I can."
But, as soon as she saw Mo Zixi, she froze for a moment and quickly looked away.
"Let's go in then."
Mo Zixi watched as Yao Anqi left, but he did not chase after her. He didn't want to cause trouble for her. After all, he had just broken up with Chen Jingrong.
Soon, Mo Zixi returned to the military base. He needed to apply for leave from his superior to deal with Xingzhe's matter.
After his superior found out about his matter, he pulled him into his office and lectured him, "What did you do?"
"Chief, I'm guilty!"
"Since you have a child, you need to give them an explanation. Hand in your marriage report as soon as possible. Otherwise, if word gets out, we won't be able to live anymore."
"Yes, Chief."
"By the way, what about you and Jingrong?"
