Chapter 211: Foot restraint order
Shi Shanshan's insistence on leaving made me feel very sad. I was in a state of inattention all day long. I had a premonition that her departure meant that the relationship between me and her had really ended here and could never be saved.
After work at night, I returned home listlessly. The bandage on my head had been removed by me and the wound was scarred, but I used my hair to combed it. It was really hard to find it if I didn't care.
My mother and Yingying were very happy when they came back. But when they saw that I was not in good spirits, they thought they were tired from taking a long-distance bus, so Feiku hit me with his hand and had an excuse to avoid my mother's sight. So they said they were tired and wanted to sleep. After taking a shower, they went back to my room to lie down.
I was speechless all night. After going to work the next day, Tang Xiaoru called me again, and I had to tell her truthfully that Shi Shanshan and I had broken up. Her resignation meant that she didn't want to see me again and wanted to completely break up with me.
Tang Xiaoru was surprised when she heard this and asked me why she broke up. I couldn't tell her the truth, so I could only vaguely say that I had a fight over a small matter. After the quarrel, the relationship broke up and it was unstoppable, so I broke up.
Tang Xiaoru actually blamed me for this, saying that men should be more arrogant and how can they break up with their girlfriends because of trivial matters? I did this because I was irresponsible for my relationship. I asked me to apologize to Shi Shanshan as soon as possible.
I could only listen and smile bitterly. Tang Xiaoru had no idea that the reason why Shi Shanshan and I broke up was because of her. I couldn't explain it, so I had to knock down my teeth and swallow it in my stomach, allowing her to scold me hard.
But no one could shake Shi Shanshan's determination to leave. Two days later, Tang Xiaoru saw that she had decided to leave, so she had no choice but to agree to her resignation. A financial staff member was temporarily transferred from the group headquarters and handed over the work of replacing her with Shi Shanshan.
On that day, Shi Shanshan simply collected personal supplies, completed the resignation procedures, said goodbye to everyone, and left the company without looking back.
Many people in the company know about my relationship with Shi Shanshan. With this step, coupled with my silence, some rumors that were unfavorable to me came out. It was nothing more than saying that I was fond of the new and frustrated with other women, which made Shi Shanshan leave sadly. For a moment, my reputation in the company was inaudible, and my colleagues who had stayed in the old companies I had with began to alienate me.
That's not all. Tang Xiaoru, who is not clear about the matter, has actually begun to become cold to me. She probably thought that I was too irresponsible for my feelings. The staff of Feiku Station beat me by hand or not, I was too ruthless as a man and could not tolerate any trivial matters. She was so cruel to abandon her girlfriend, which really made her feel disappointed.
Faced with all this, I really can't defend myself except for a wry smile. And in fact, I'm sorry to Shi Shanshan. No matter what the reason is, I should be criticized and scolded.
Therefore, I remained silent, even more taciturn than before, and came to work silently every day, and then went home silently. Because of my bad mood, I smoked even harder. I often had one after another, and sometimes I couldn't sleep at night, so I just smoked until dawn.
My life was so lost in the absence of isolation and depression. The only thing that made me feel relieved was that there was another person who understood me and kept comforting me.
She is Ferena! I have never seen her again since I got drunk that day and took care of me for a whole night. I just don’t know why, since then, she has called me every day and didn’t bother me. She no longer mentioned her father and Tang Xiaoru. She just chatted and talked about some recent events.
Ferena may be the only person in the world who knows that I have a pain in my heart. That day, I was drunk and hugged her and treated her as Shi Shanshan, which made her clearly realize my pain.
So, she knew that I was in a bad mood and always tried to comfort me and make me happy on the phone.
I was still a little impatient when I answered her phone. To be honest, I really didn't want to get involved in her family anymore, nor did I want to hear any entanglements about her father and Tang Xiaoru again.
But what surprised me was that Ferrena did what she said, and the staff beat her hands and never talked about the topics that bother me again. Instead, Feiku Station was like an old friend, bringing me warmth and comfort when I was most isolated and most depressed.
Maybe it was because of the phone call every day, or maybe it was because I and Ferena had a kiss that I couldn't say, gradually, Ferena became close and important in marriage. Before she knew it, she seemed to have become a very good friend.
Days have passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, November has come. A sudden cold air has caused this year's winter to come.
As soon as I started work that morning, I suddenly received a call from Ferena. Generally speaking, Ferena calls me every day at noon or before going to bed at night. It rarely calls early in the morning. In addition to being surprised, I quickly pressed the call button and said, "What's wrong? Why is it so early today?"
Ferena's extremely happy laughter came from her phone immediately and she shouted: "Dai Yong, report you good news. I'll be free again tomorrow, haha!"
During this period of telephone conversation, Ferena had confessed to me. On that night, she had never called her home, and in order not to let her family know where she was, she simply turned off her phone that day. The family thought she was missing, so she sent someone to look for her outside for one night and almost called the police. The next day after Ferna and I separated after breakfast, she called home to report safety. As a result, her mother was angry and immediately called her home to interrogate her. Her daughter was so old and she had never spent the night alone outside. What if she was hanging out with some strange man?
However, no matter how her mother asked, Ferena said nothing. She was so angry that her mother immediately issued a confinement order to her. From then on, except for going to school during the day, she could only stay at home for other times and not leave at all. Moreover, even during school, she sent someone to monitor her daughter. Whenever a boy contacted Ferena, she would be immediately listed as a suspect and would inevitably investigate. This is also the main reason why Ferena could not meet during this period when she spoke on the phone with me every day.
However, nearly a month has passed since the incident. After so long, I didn't see anything abnormal. Ferena's mother gradually began to relax and no longer felt so nervous. When she heard Ferena say she wanted freedom again, I thought her mother had finally lifted her confinement order, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Is that so much congratulations. I'm almost bored after being locked up at home for so long?"
