Ruan Qing sat up straight and waved her hands quickly, "No! My dear aunt, I moved out here just to avoid being pressured to get married. Please let me go!"

"You should get married too."

Zhong Xuexi said seriously: "It's a pity that most of the teachers in our school are married, and there are no good gay men, otherwise I would have introduced them to you a long time ago."

Ruan Qing raised an eyebrow with a wicked smile, "Isn't the one next to you good enough? If you don't like her, just give her to me!"

"no!"

"no!"

Two voices sounded at the same time.

Zhong Xuexi and Zhao Huaian looked at each other, and for a moment it seemed as if something was broken.

"Yo yo yo~"

Ruan Qing stretched out the last syllable meaningfully, "Do you really have to be so tacit? If you two don't get married soon, I'll steal you away."

"You...why are you so annoying!"

Zhong Xuexi was extremely shy as she had not officially been together with Zhao Huaian yet.

Zhao Huaian has been waiting for her to be willing.

We've waited for so many years, it won't take a moment longer.

His eyes were filled with affection, and his tone was full of doting, "Don't tease her, I will marry her, no one else can take her away."

Ruan Qing looked like she was upset. Although she had an auntie smile on her face, she was actually a little envious in her heart.

Before she traveled through the book, she was also single.

Her parents had always let her do what she wanted and hadn't paid much attention to her since she was a child. She had to get by on her own most of the time, so she had never felt loved.

She always comforted herself that a truly strong person would not be bound by these so-called emotions.

But seeing that others were loved by someone, while she had no one behind her, even she found it funny.

The system suddenly appeared: [Stop laughing, there is a system behind you.]

Ruan Qing's mind was full of periods: "..."

This dog system read her mind again.

Shield! Shield!

Carrying a heavy burden, Zhong Zhiyang went to the suburbs with his keys. He planned to sort out the previous registration list for collecting supplies.

Although the distribution of supplies has been stopped for the time being, he is worried that Lin Ziqiu and the others will continue with the previous plan later, so it is always a good idea to be prepared in advance.

After getting the money, he naturally has to work.

He moved a stool and sat at the door to check the list. The weather was very good today and the sun was warm on his body. Although he could stay in the house to warm himself by the fire, he still felt damp and cold.

At this moment, the sound of a car bell suddenly came from outside. He looked and found a familiar figure standing outside the gate.

Yes……

Jiang Nianyue.

She came here by bike alone.

The pencil in Zhong Zhiyang's hand fell to the ground and he stood there in a daze.

Even from a long distance, Jiang Nianyue saw him at a glance.

Their eyes met, and both of them had tears in their eyes.

Zhong Zhiyang took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He was no longer the coward he used to be. He couldn't let Jiang Nianyue look down on him anymore.

His Adam's apple slid up and down, and he asked in a feigned indifference, "What are you doing here?"

Jiang Nianyue got out of the car, grabbed the iron railings of the gate with both hands, and called out softly with a choked voice: "Zhiyang..."

Zhong Zhiyang turned his face away, his hand hanging on the side of his thigh clenched into a fist, "Don't call me that! We have already separated and should not meet again. Go away! I don't want to see you!"

Jiang Nianyue shook the railing, extremely emotional, tears streaming down her face. "Are you really that cruel? You promised me you would never abandon me. Have you forgotten?"

"enough!"

Zhong Zhiyang shouted angrily, "You were the one who left me first! You were the one who gave up on our relationship first. What's the point of saying this now?"

Jiang Nianyue's tears rolled down her cheeks as he spoke, as if she was heartbroken. "If I don't leave you cruelly, how will we survive? Will we just wait to die at home?"

Her words sounded like a thunderclap in Zhong Zhiyang's ears.

"What do you mean?"

Zhong Zhiyang turned around suddenly, and when he saw Jiang Nianyue crying so sadly, he couldn't help but feel a pain deep in his heart.

There was a teardrop hanging on the tip of Jiang Nianyue's nose, which looked pitiful and made people feel pity.

She sobbed and cried, "You used to be a carefree young man from a wealthy family. How could you understand the high cost of food and daily necessities? I'm marrying above my station, and I don't want to see you continue to be so decadent. If I don't force you to leave in this way, your life will be over."

Hearing this, Zhong Zhiyang stood there in a daze as if he had lost his mind.

"Now that I see you are doing so well, I feel relieved. I have no other wishes but to hope that you are well."

After saying that, Jiang Nianyue turned and left, as if to say goodbye to him.

Zhong Zhiyang's pupils suddenly shrank, and he ran out in two steps, grabbing her wrist and asking, "You didn't lie to me?"

Jiang Nianyue's shoulders trembled slightly. She bit her lip, trying hard to hold back her tears, and said with a strong face, "I swear."

Zhong Zhiyang frowned, feeling very complicated for a moment.

"So where have you been these days? You said it's hard for us to survive together, so what if you leave me? How will you survive?"

He was still somewhat rational at this moment and did not blindly believe everything she said.

After all, Jiang Nianyue’s words were so hurtful when they broke up.

He felt as if her heart had been dug out of him, and the pain was so great that every breath he took was difficult.

Jiang Nianyue wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and sniffed, "My mother sold her gold jewelry for some money and moved to a new place..."

Zhong Zhiyang forced himself to calm down and asked, "Then what are you doing here?"

"I...we're broke, and we heard there were free supplies here, so we came here..."

As if feeling very ashamed, Jiang Nianyue covered her face with trembling hands, tears seeping out from between her fingers, each drop like a crack in a broken part deep in her heart.

If it were in the past, Zhong Zhiyang would have hugged her and coaxed her, wishing to bring the whole world to her.

But now, Zhong Zhiyang no longer had the pity and affection he once had. He just stared at the girl who was crying in front of him with complicated eyes.

Zhong Zhiyang forced all soft thoughts back, turned around, and said in a cold and distant tone, "Wait for me here."

After saying that, he immediately ran into the house.

After a while, he ran out carrying a bag of rice.

"You are... No, I don't want it!" Jiang Nianyue pretended to refuse.

Zhong Zhiyang ignored her objections and tied the bag of rice to the back seat of the bicycle. "When you were with me, you never enjoyed any happiness. This bag of rice can be regarded as a period between us."

Jiang Nianyue stood there in disbelief. She never thought that she had been so humble, but he had no intention of reconciling with her!

How can that work!
