Chapter 854: Chapter 450:
The Xu mother didn’t say anything unnecessary.
Afterward, she left Xu Wei alone.
Xu Wei couldn’t hold it any longer, she called Rong Yanqiao, “Qiaoqiao, I’m really feeling awful… Jiang Xun disregards my wishes, we… And now, back at home, they still won’t allow me to divorce Jiang Xun. Being with someone I don’t love is truly suffocating…”
Xu Wei’s words grew more choked with each sentence.
Rong Yanqiao’s heart was wrenched painfully.
She was deeply worried that Xu Wei might contemplate suicide.
She wished she could be by Xu Wei’s side immediately, but since Xu Wei was at the Xu Family, she couldn’t go over.
Moreover, ever since seeing Zhao Yixing and hearing those words, Rong Qingze had been troubled.
She could only try to counsel Xu Wei, “Thinking about it doesn’t help. Maybe if you ignore it all, think of him as mere air, you might not feel so bad.”
Initially, when she had a relationship with Rong Qingze, he wasn’t the one she loved either, yet there was an irresistible attraction about him.
Feelings develop over time.
If Xu Wei stayed with Jiang Xun, it wouldn’t be impossible.
“Qiaoqiao, I can’t convince myself not to think about all this. You don’t know, Jiang Xun makes me feel dirty, I…” Xu Wei couldn’t speak through her sobs.
The environment around her felt like a suffocating cage, she wanted to escape, but unfortunately, she couldn’t.
Her mother’s words were there, and the somber face of Xu Shaodong was etched in her mind.
Looking at the whole picture, it seemed death was the only way to end all this.
“Stop crying, everything will pass. You have to move forward, not look back. Xu Wei, live well, I believe in you!” Rong Yanqiao could only comfort Xu Wei this way.
Xu Wei forced a bitter smile.
Everyone is confused in their own matters, but as an onlooker, it’s clear.
They can advise others, yet they can never persuade themselves.
Xu Wei had just agreed when she heard Rong Qingze’s voice from the other end of the phone, “Come over and eat some fruit.”
Remembering Rong Qingze’s attitude, she didn’t say much, “Qiaoqiao, I’ll hang up first, take care of yourself.”
After all, they both had their own lives.
After Rong Yanqiao hung up, she looked at Rong Qingze. Where was any fruit around him!
“As my only good friend now, I can’t just ignore Xu Wei.”
“What can you do? Live her life for her, or help her leave North City?”
Rong Qingze’s words were blunt.
As he spoke, his demeanor was indifferent, and there was a cold sharpness in his eyes.
There’s no denying, what Rong Qingze said was true.
She couldn’t control Xu Wei’s life, nor could she help her leave North City.
“But you spoke like that, and Xu Wei has noticed. I can’t be by her side right now, can’t I at least chat with her?” Rong Yanqiao pursed her lips, showing slight displeasure.
With what he said, who couldn’t discern the deliberateness in his words?
Rong Qingze said flatly, “Can you change her mindset now? Rong Yanqiao, sometimes I don’t understand what you’re thinking!”
Whether it was Xu Wei’s matters or Zhao Yixing’s.
Rong Yanqiao’s decisions had never been right.
Rong Yanqiao remained silent.
From Rong Qingze’s words, she suddenly understood everything.
“You still care, I know you’re blaming me, but am I not, as someone by your side, clearly known to you?” Rong Yanqiao said, her voice choked up.
Between people, long association surely reveals another’s character.
She’s not that kind of person.
If Rong Qingze didn’t believe her, then she…
“Rong Yanqiao, I know exactly what you’re like, I don’t need anyone reminding me. As for what’s being said about you, haven’t you reflected on why?”
Before Rong Yanqiao could think deeply, Rong Qingze interrupted her.
Rong Yanqiao’s mistake lay in her softness and kindness.
If it weren’t for this, Zhao Yixing would never have had a chance to hurt her.
She gave Zhao Yixing this opportunity herself, and even at this last moment, Zhao Yixing still said those things to affect her.
If it were someone else with a smaller mind, Rong Yanqiao’s situation would be dire.
Rong Yanqiao stayed silent.
Where her mistake was, she shouldn’t have been kind-hearted, shouldn’t have been so good to Zhao Yixing, shouldn’t have opened up her heart for the little bit of kindness Zhao Yixing showed her.
