In a blink of an eye, two days passed. Thinking of meeting Xia Dahai tomorrow and the other people she might meet at Xia's house, Xia Mengying wanted to go to bed early to recuperate, but when she was lying in bed, what happened?
Neither can sleep.
In the quiet bedroom, there was a knock on the door, and Fang Jingyi's voice sounded outside the door, "Mengmeng, are you asleep?"
"Not yet." Xia Mengying sat up from the bed and turned on the headlight on the bedside. She had been afraid of the dark since she was a child, so even when she went to bed at night, she would leave some light on, otherwise it would be difficult to fall asleep.
Fang Jingyi opened the door and walked in, holding a bowl in her hand. She walked to the bed and sat down. She handed the thing in her hand to Xia Mengying, "Your Aunt Zhang works overtime at night and will probably come back very late. She asked me to prepare Tremella lotus seeds."
You should also try the porridge."
Xia Mengying took a few sips, because she didn't get fat no matter how much she ate. She didn't have as many taboos as other girls in terms of diet, and Fang Jingyi couldn't wait to give her all the good things, so in the evening
She often eats late-night snacks. She remembers that in her senior year of high school, when she came back from evening self-study every day, Fang Jingyi would prepare delicious food for her in different ways every day. When the college entrance examination was only more than two months away, she suddenly fell ill, and Fang Jingyi almost
Let her stop taking the exam.
"Can't you sleep?" Fang Jingyi saw that Xia Mengying had finished drinking. She took the bowl in her hand and placed it beside the bed. She took a tissue on the side and wiped Xia Mengying's mouth carefully, even though Xia Mengying was already over 20 years old.
Even though she was pregnant, she still took care of her as a child.
"Mengmeng, if you feel embarrassed, don't go tomorrow."
Under the bright light, Fang Jingyi couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw Xia Mengying's face was pale. In just over ten days, she had lost more than half of her weight and had a sharp chin.
"Mom knows you are in trouble. Mom doesn't want you to be in trouble. This matter is between me and your father. You have helped mom solve a big problem. I have already felt your support, mom.
I really feel very happy and relieved. Over the years, because of my affair with you, my mother knows that you have suffered a lot. In order to take care of the overall situation of this family, you have worked hard. Although I am desperate for your father,
But he is still resentful. In the past 20 years, he has not been like a man when it comes to handling family disputes. This divorce, he is still so disappointing."
Xia Mengying had never seen Fang Jingyi scolding someone like this. She knew that although she had decided to divorce, she still had not completely let go, especially this divorce. If her mother went to Uncle Sun for help, even if he made the mistake first,
He would definitely shift the responsibility to his mother, saying that she was unruly as a woman, especially grandma. She might say something even more unpleasant. And if they didn't take care of Uncle Sun, who could they turn to? Xia Dahai was behind it.
Doing small tricks is really annoying and disgusting.
Fang Jingyi sighed, "No matter how he is not, he is still your father. You don't have to make the relationship with him so tense because of your mother. If this word spreads in the future, it will not be good for your reputation."
It was because of these worries that she did not want to involve Xia Mengying in this matter from the beginning.
"I have decided to go back tomorrow, so don't talk about these things anymore."
Xia Mengying held Fang Jingyi's hand, "Didn't I say it? No matter what happens, I will be by your side to support you. People who know me will naturally believe in me no matter what others say. As for those
I don’t even bother to make friends with people who follow what the public says. In fact, this incident is not all bad for me. It at least lets me know who is sincere to me and who is hypocritical.”
She didn't notify her in advance about going to Xia's house tomorrow. She could expect that Wang Jiazhi and Xia Xiaoxue would probably be there. She didn't know if her mother knew about this. Maybe she knew that sometimes, she was cruel to herself.
Some, just to accept the facts that she is completely unwilling to accept, and to let go of those things that she is unwilling to let go of. If they are also at Xia's house tomorrow, she is really worried that her mother can't handle it alone.
"Okay, it's decided."
Without waiting for Fang Jingyi to ask for advice, Xia Mengying made up her mind and took a firm stance.
It's true that Xia Dahai is her father. Even if something like this happens, it still can't change the blood relationship between them. But some things have changed. Even if she does nothing, just sits and watches, she and Xia Dahai
It is impossible to be as kind and filial as before. Some harm, once caused, is like a mark that can never be erased in a lifetime.
After Fang Jingyi left, Xia Mengying locked the door from the inside and walked to the balcony alone. It was almost eleven o'clock and it was already late at night. The lights in the entire S city were dim. Looking down from a high place, the bustling city
The night view is very charming, but it makes people feel cold, as if the world is ice cold.
The floor is very clean. Fang Jingyi has nothing to do at home these days. She cleans the house very clean every day. Xia Mengying sits on the floor. She didn't sleep during the day. She got up at around seven in the morning, but now she doesn't feel sleepy.
Xia Mengying had a premonition that she would suffer from insomnia.
She was in a depressed mood and wanted to ask Liang Yufei to go for a ride with her at this time, but when she thought of Fang Jingyi, she gave up. At this time, she really wanted to find someone to talk to with her.
Xia Mengying walked back to the room, took out her phone, and looked at the screen with cracks at all four corners. If things went well tomorrow, she would change her phone.
Xia Mengying opened the text messages on her mobile phone. In the top column, there was a number that had no title but was very familiar to Xia Mengying. Most of the dozens of text messages were the simplest greetings. Have you gotten up? Have you eaten?
What did you eat today? Such a mentally retarded question made Xia Mengying wonder if the person who sent the text message was Ning Ziqian.
Two days have passed. Xia Mengying stroked her injured finger, and her fingertips unconsciously touched her lips. Although she still felt that getting along with Ning Ziqian was a bit embarrassing, it seemed that every time she thought of
He was in a sweet and beautiful mood. She wanted to call him and listen to his voice. She felt that she had a lot to say to him, but she didn't have the courage to make a call. She admitted that she was escaping.
The reliance on him seems to have gone too far.
Xia Mengying sat on the ground with her back against the wall, holding her mobile phone in both hands, looking at the starry sky outside the window sill, and scanned the text messages sent by Ning Ziqian, but she was in a low mood and didn't know what to reply to.
It has been more than ten days since Xia Dahai's incident happened, and she has slowly accepted this fact. However, whenever she mentions it, her mood will still get worse uncontrollably, and she can't help but have thoughts of self-pity. In the past,
If something happens, I almost habitually call Xia Xiaoxue, but now, no matter whether it’s good or bad, I don’t have a single friend to share it with.
Xia Mengying was feeling uncomfortable in her heart when the phone in her hand suddenly rang. Xia Mengying looked at it and was surprised. It was so late. Ning Ziqian called at this time. Could it be that there was something urgent?
