Chapter 137

Xu Ziran felt that he and Qiu Yurou had a good rapport, so the next few days were in a good mood, but Tian Jiaqi was in a bad mood.

Things seemed to be going well. Several times Xu Ziran almost agreed to go out, but was stopped by inexplicable reasons.

For example, once, before Xu Ziran was about to go out, Qiu Yurou fell off the chair. Although nothing happened, she immediately stopped Xu Ziran from going out.

Once again, they agreed to go out for a good meal together, but Mother Xu suddenly called and warned them not to go out to eat all the time, but to cook at home.

Another time, when I was already dressed, it started to rain heavily as soon as I went out. It was just God’s will.

Another time…

There is no need to go on. Seeing that Xu Ziran has completed almost all the subjects, Liu Yizhen couldn’t sit still, and called directly and threatened: “Are you not wanting your old lover’s life.”

Tian Jiaqi was too lazy to refute the title of “old lover”, and replied, “I can’t help it either.”

Tian Jiaqi has lost her temper. One thing she thinks more and more frequently is, if Xia Qian was here, what way would she come up with?

She couldn’t help but once again made a request that had been rejected countless times before: “Let me talk to Xia Qian.”

Liu Yizhen simply refused: “This is impossible.”

Tian Jiaqi said unhappily: “You refuse every time, it’s too impersonal, can I doubt that Xia Qian is not with you at all.”

Liu Yizhen smiled: “Xia Qian is not in my hands of course, she is in my hands.”

So the conversation ended here, Tian Jiaqi continued to think of a way, and after another half month, even Liu Yizhen stopped contacting her.

This time Tian Jiaqi panicked and tried every means to contact Liu Yizhen, but several of the other party’s numbers became empty, and the world disappeared.

Tian Jiaqi was restless for two days, and finally did not bring the mobile phone that Liu Yizhen threatened to bring before, but Liu Yizhen still did not move, Tian Jiaqi finally realized that she had been abandoned.

But she is fine, what should Xia Qian do?

Tian Jiaqi has been exhausted for the past two weeks, but in the past few days, it has become even more difficult to sleep and eat. Seeing that the dark circles under the eyes cannot be covered by concealer.

I ate with Xu Ziran and Qiu Yurou that day, eating and eating, and finally couldn’t help falling into tears and sobbing.

Xu Ziran looked at her in surprise while holding the bowl, Qiu Yurou put down her chopsticks and pushed Tian Jiaqi a box of tissues.

Then the two looked at each other, Qiu Yurou said with a mouth shape—”Do you want to say it?”

Xu Ziran frowned and pretended to say: “Jiaqi, what’s wrong with you, is the pressure too much?”

Tian Jiaqi raised her head, looked at Xu Ziran tearfully, and finally blurted out: “Curan, Xia Qian was taken away by Liu Yizhen.”

This type of sentence made Xu Ziran think of “Senior Brother, Master was taken away by the monster”, and almost couldn’t help but reply “Don’t worry about Second Junior Brother”, but fortunately, her reason allowed her to endure it, and replied with a serious face: “This is What’s going on, tell me carefully.”

Tian Jiaqi told Xu Ziran all her troubles these days, but of course she covered up some facts, making the whole thing seem like an innocent girl was coerced by the villain boss, struggling with anxiety and regret.

Xu Ziran listened to Tian Jiaqi’s constant repetition of “I’m really hesitant” and “I really don’t know what to do”, and also made a convincing look and comforted her.

They went back and forth, and both of them could be called the best actors. Xu Ziran was pretending, and suddenly felt ridiculous.

Can they really be best friends with such hypocrisy?

She clearly remembered Tian Jiaqi crying in the cold wind and crying in the moonlight when she was fifteen years old. Now that the other party’s appearance has not changed, she can’t imagine that the other party can still make such an expression.

Now, even if the other party is not reconciled, he will definitely not tell it. If it is not good, he will not even show his performance.

Of course, the feelings have always been there, but as time goes by, people grow up, so there are more and more things filling the heart, squeezing the once clean and simple heart.

Xu Ziran looked at Tian Jiaqi, watching the other party weeping silently, the tip of her nose was slightly red, her eye makeup was a bit smudged, but she looked more and more attractive.

She remembered that when she was first reborn, she once thought of silently cutting off the relationship with Tian Jiaqi, but now it seems that it is an unnecessary trouble.

As “Qiu Yurou” once said, they will gradually drift away one day.

Now it seems that day has come.

Xu Ziran sighed inaudibly and thought to herself: This may be the last time I treat Tian Jiaqi as my friend.

Then she opened her mouth and said, “You are going to take the exam too, why don’t you go back to school to have a look?”

“What?” Tian Jiaqi raised her head as if she didn’t understand what Xu Ziran was saying.

“I heard what you said just now, and I always felt that something was wrong. If you think about it carefully, if Liu Yizhen had already tried to tie someone up, why did he have to tie Xia Qian?”

Tian Jiaqi’s heart suddenly burst, and the first thought that flashed in her mind was – because Liu Yizhen felt that Xia Qian was her lover.

So what about the facts? How important is Xia Qian to her?

Tian Jiaqi couldn’t think of it for a while, and was stunned.

Seeing Tian Jiaqi in a daze, Xu Ziran sighed, “I mean, you may have been deceived by Liu Yizhen.”

“What?!” Tian Jiaqi raised her head in surprise.

Xu Ziran pretended: “Although I don’t know the actual situation, I heard from my parents before that Xia Qian’s mother took a long vacation from school, and I don’t know where she went.”

As if being hit in the head, Tian Jiaqi suddenly realized that after she was sent out dully, Qiu Yurou said to Xu Ziran, “You seem very disappointed.”

Xu Ziran was not surprised that Qiu Yurou could see it, and smiled bitterly: “Guessing is one thing, and verifying it is another. In the final analysis, Tian Jiaqi really wants to get me at a disadvantage for Xia Qian, which can be accepted intellectually, but not emotionally. It’s another matter.”

Qiu Yurou grabbed Xu Ziran’s hand and kneaded gently: “Then why don’t you just show it off? You tell her like this now, and when she talks to Li Luling, she knows you’re lying to her.”

Xu Ziran’s wry smile gradually turned into indifference: “So what, presumably now, she also knows my attitude.”

Qiu Yurou knew the overtones of Xu Ziran’s words. The other party was saying that Tian Jiaqi should understand that she no longer regarded the other party as a friend.

It is precisely because I no longer regard them as friends, so I talk in such a roundabout way. It is precisely because I no longer regard them as friends, so I will not be honest.

This decision may have been made by Xu Ziran, but Qiu Yurou could see that the other party was still very sad.

Qiu Yurou always felt that this kind of sadness must be much more than what Xu Ziran is showing now, because the other party has been a friend for more than 20 years – more than 20 years, how many 20 years can there be in life?

Then Xu Ziran’s current appearance is to force a smile, Qiu Yurou stretched out her hand and pressed Xu Ziran’s cheek, and said softly: “You don’t have to endure in front of me.”

Qiu Yurou didn’t know that Xu Ziran had had the same experience once in her previous life, so accepting it again would naturally not have the same impact as the first time.

Xu Ziran looked at Qiu Yurou and felt a little strange for a while.

Maybe it’s because I only met “the future Qiu Yurou” recently. The contrast between the two people’s strong temperament brings a sense of gap, which makes Xu Ziran feel unreal.

At the beginning, Qiu Yurou’s hatred for scolding her with iron and steel has gradually become blurred, and just three or four years ago, Qiu Yurou’s most vivid impression in her mind was still the inhuman appearance that belonged to the future.

But now, that image has been covered by a gentle and shy look.

In other words, Xu Ziran now regards the two Qiu Yurou as two completely different people.

Xu Ziran now understands that no matter in the past, present or in the future, she is silently cared for by this person, but the feeling she gets is still different.

If it was the person in front of her, she didn’t want the other person to worry.

So she opened her mouth and said, “Someone has to leave, I understand this.”

Qiu Yurou’s eyes were soft and she said slowly, “I will never leave you.”

When Tian Jiaqi came out of the apartment building, she suddenly thought of something, picked up her mobile phone and made a call.

The color bell on the phone rang for a long time, and Tian Jiaqi kept stomping on the spot in a hurry. I don’t know how long it took, the phone was finally connected, and a confused voice came from the opposite side: “Jiaqi?”

Tian Jiaqi quickly said, “Is it Sister Li?”

From the first time she saw Li Luling, she called the other party Sister Li, and she has not changed it for so many years.

Li Luling said: “Oh, I don’t know when I fell asleep, what, what happened.”

Tian Jiaqi spoke in a hurry: “Can you check if Xia Qian is at school?”

Li Luling said, “Huh?” “You asked this too?”

Tian Jiaqi was taken aback: “Who has asked?”

She thought of Liu Yizhen at first, and soon realized that Liu Yizhen did not know Li Luling, and then a name crossed her mind.

At the same time, Li Luling said the name: “Xu Ziran.”

Tian Jiaqi’s mind went blank for a while: “she, when did she ask?”

“It’s been a while, before we snowed… Well, it was at least half a month ago.”

Half a month ago—doesn’t that mean that Xu Ziran knew from the very beginning?

Then why did she say those words?

Tian Jiaqi couldn’t understand for a while, but subconsciously realized that she could no longer go up and ask Xu Ziran directly.

Something has changed.

Although she cared about this matter, she still held the phone and asked a question about Xia Qian: “So, is Xia Qian at school?”
