Chapter 218 The Last Chance
Temptation Chapter 218 The last chance
Since that day, I have never seen Zhang Wen again. In the past month, perhaps she has really given up on me, and even the phone has never called. In addition, my relationship with Tang Xiaoru has become increasingly cold, so I cannot hear any news about Zhang Wen from her. So, I have never known how this woman who once liked me has been doing during this period.
At this moment, I saw her coming up with a man, and the first thought in my heart was to breathe a sigh of relief. Very well, she finally dated another man. Regardless of whether she is her boyfriend or not, it is a good phenomenon, so there is no need to worry about her current situation anymore.
Zhang Wen didn't see me. After coming up, she walked to a corner far away from us with the man in a suit and tie. I didn't look at it anymore, and immediately turned my eyes back. Seeing Shi Shanshan with a questioning look at me, she smiled and explained, "Oh, I know, that woman... is a friend of a friend of mine."
Although Shi Shanshan and I have broken up, I am still habitually unwilling to talk about things related to Tang Xiaoru in front of her. So, I didn't say that Zhang Wen is Tang Xiaoru's friend.
"Friends of friends?" Shi Shanshan looked back at Zhang Wen in the distance, turned around immediately, frowned and asked me, "Which are you..."
After saying three words, Shi Shanshan seemed to suddenly realize that she was no longer qualified to ask me. She no longer asked her face, but shook her head, sighed softly, and said, "Forget it, it has nothing to do with me now."
As she said that, her eyes looked at the envelope that I retreated to her. She sighed again and said, "I am not in a hurry to use money. If you are not well-off, you can return it to me in the future."
I smiled and said, "Who said I'm not well-off? You have only been away for a month, and you don't know the treatment of the company. Just today, we gave another bonus. Unfortunately... you can't get it..."
Speaking of this, my smile suddenly dimmed. Shi Shanshan left the company because of me. She didn't know how her new work unit was treated. If it was much worse than her original income, it would really make me feel guilty.
Seeing that Shi Shanshan was still hesitating and did not take the envelope away, I sighed in my heart and continued in a low voice: "Take it, sooner, I will always return the money to you."
Shi Shanshan didn't say anything. Looking at the envelope on the table for a long time, she finally reached out her hand silently, picked up the envelope, and put it in her bag beside her without opening it.
I know there is no need to remind her to count the money. She may not trust me about emotional matters, but she should know the best of my personality.
Next, Shi Shanshan and I seemed to have no topics, and we were drinking tea silently. After a while, Shi Shanshan suddenly raised her hand and looked at her wrist, "I have something to do. The time is almost over, and I have to leave soon."
My heart was a little sad. I was no longer a boyfriend or girlfriend. I didn’t even want to sit for a while?
"Okay, wait a moment. I'll go and settle the bill and send you down."
I had no choice but to stand up, waved to summon the waiter, and after paying the order, I took Shi Shanshan to the teahouse. Zhang Wen was still there to drink tea with the man in suit and tie, so I didn't go over to say hello to her. Since she was already with other men, there was no need for me to cause any trouble.
Shi Shanshan seemed to have something to do. Her home was nearby. After leaving the teahouse, she immediately stopped a taxi on the street. Before getting on the bus, Shi Shanshan suddenly said to me again: "Dai Yong, do you really not think about it and go to confess your love to Tang Xiaoru?"
I was stunned again, but unexpectedly, she suddenly mentioned this matter again.
Seeing my puzzled expression, Shi Shanshan said again: "I know it is impossible for you and her, but do you really plan to like her so much for the rest of your life?"
I didn't know what to say, but after thinking about it, I had to say, "Since you all know that it is impossible, why do you want me to do this more? She is the boss of the company, and I am an employee of her. I confess my love rashly. How can I have the face to work under her in the future?"
Shi Shanshan seemed to smile helplessly and looked at me gently and said, "Is this job so important to you? Still Xiaoru?"
Immediately, I became silent. Thinking of what Shi Shanshan said to me just now, I slowly fell into deep thought.
I don’t know if I am reluctant to leave Tang Xiaoru. But this job is really important to me. I am a little self-aware. It is really not easy for ordinary people like me who want a diploma but no diploma, and who have no ability to find this job now. My family is in a difficult situation, and I plan to save some money to treat my sister’s eyes. If I lose this job, all my good wishes may become a bubble.
For me, feelings are very illusory. It is best to have them, but it is better not to have them. However, improving the living conditions at home and allowing my sister's eyes to see the light again is real and necessary. I can vaguely guess what Shi Shanshan meant. It is nothing more than asking me to give up on Tang Xiaoru completely and erase my love for her completely from my heart. It is obvious to confess my love to Tang Xiaoru. According to Shi Shanshan's idea, I have worked hard to win, and even if I fail, I will not have any regrets in my heart. In this way, I can be freed from my feelings and forget this woman.
Perhaps in Shi Shanshan's heart, it's no big deal to lose this job. Even if you can't find such a good salary in the future, you can't make a living wherever you go? Unfortunately, I don't think so, because I still have a lot of responsibilities. Tang Xiaoru's relationship is not as close as before, but this does not affect my job. As long as I am serious and diligent, even if Tang Xiaoru has any opinions on my relationship handling, at least she will not have any opinions on my work. On the surface, everyone can maintain a normal relationship between superiors and subordinates. But once I confess my love rashly, I really have no face and continue working in the company. More likely, in order to avoid embarrassment from seeing me, Tang Xiaoru may not necessarily kick me out of the company.
So, I must never do such stupid things.
Besides, I don’t agree with Shi Shanshan’s thoughts. If I like someone, I really work hard to strive for it. No matter whether it succeeds or not, I will not leave any regrets in my heart? If I don’t do this, I will never be able to forget Tang Xiaoru from my heart for the rest of my life?
Although I don't even have an answer myself, I don't believe that there is nothing else to do except this.
Looking at Shi Shanshan's questionable face, I knew she was waiting for my answer. She smiled faintly, and I finally answered: "Yes, this job is very important to me. If there is not a better choice, I don't want to lose it."
Shi Shanshan's face was immediately filled with disappointment. She looked at me silently for a while, sighed softly, and said, "Do you? I understand."
As she said that, she lowered her head and got into the taxi, stretched out her hand to close the door, but thought about it and said to me again: "If it is this... I'd better not meet again. Take care, I'll leave, goodbye!"
With a pancake, the car door finally closed. I watched the taxi slowly drive forward, and suddenly my heart moved, as if I suddenly understood something.
But in the blink of an eye, the car was getting farther and farther away from me. I wanted to shout loudly, but suddenly raised my hand, but suddenly hesitated. Then, I slowly put my hand down and sighed deeply.
Shi Shanshan, this is giving me the last chance! Although I suddenly understood, somehow, I chose to give up.
Feelings are a luxury for me. When I first lost, I was a little painful, but now, I have slowly been thinking about it. Since I have lost it, don’t find it again. Because once I find my feelings, maybe... I will lose more...
I lit a cigarette and I slowly walked on the way home. At this time, the bus was gone, and I felt sorry for the few dollars I had called. Anyway, it was still early, so it would be better to walk home.
When I just walked up and down Xiaguanqiao, the phone in my pocket suddenly rang. I took it out and saw it. I couldn't help but smiled slightly, immediately pressed the call button, put the phone down and said, "Hey! Why did I go to bed so early today?
Ferena's familiar laughter came to his ears: "Isn't it okay? You have nothing to do at home, so it's better to go to bed early and chat with you." Nuan said with a smile: "Okay, what's the fun thing happened to you today?"
"Haha, today, I was confessed to me again. The other party is a famous handsome guy in our school!"
"Is that so? Oh, congratulations, this is the fifth time this month, right? Tell me, how did the handsome guy confess to you!"
"Hehe, it's noon today, we...huh? Why does the car drive in your phone? Where are you now
"I'm outside, but I'm the only one. If you have nothing to do, please tell me."
"Outside? What are you doing outside?"
"What's the matter? I came out to see someone and paid back the money she had lent me before.
"Shi Shanshan!"
"Shi Shanshan? You...you just met Shi Shanshan?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"You...you owe her money?"
"Well, before I fell in love with her, I once used it urgently and borrowed three thousand dollars from her."
"Oh, it's just...repaying the money? What else did you... say?"
"Hey, didn't you just tell me that you were confessed by a handsome guy? Why did you talk about me again? My affairs are boring, let me talk about yours first."
"Oh, at noon today, a boy said he liked me and wanted to date me but I refused. It's over, now I'm talking about you. (To be continued, if you want to know the next thing, like ww.8.com, more chapters,
