My face turned red again.
Sweet Talk is back!
He really knows how to charm!
Wang Zhan has never said these things to me.
He only knows how to bring me down.
I realized that when I am with Xu Zheng, I feel very relaxed.
I can be my true self.
I no longer have to be cautious and guess his thoughts.
This feeling is truly wonderful.
In the evening, Xu Zheng walked me home.
As we approached the ground floor, he naturally held my hand.
My heart raced suddenly.
However, at that moment, I saw a familiar figure—Wang Zhan.
Why is he coming down?
He must be out for a walk.
Oh no!
I was caught holding hands with Xu Zheng!
I felt a strange panic in my heart.
Xu Zheng didn’t notice the change in my expression;
he still held my hand, even tighter.
I nervously looked at Wang Zhan.
He stared at me with a blank expression.
Finally, he sneered and said:
“Jiang Wan, you really are quite casual.”
"Casual?"
He said I was casual?
A surge of anger welled up inside me.
"How am I being casual?"
"Is there a problem with me being with Xu Zheng?"
"Jiang Wan, you really make me feel disgusted," Wang Zhan said before turning to leave.
I was furious.
Xu Zheng quickly grabbed my arm: "Don't chase after him."
"What does Wang Zhan mean by that?"
"I've been his neighbor for over ten years; what right does he have to say that about me?"
"I'm an adult now; what's wrong with dating?"
I was so angry that tears streamed down my face.
Xu Zheng gently pulled me into his arms: "Alright, Wanwan, don't be upset."
"You are Jiang Wan; you won't lose to someone like him."
"Right."
I wiped my tears away.
"I won't lose to him."
"I want to live well."
"That's the spirit."
Xu Zheng tenderly patted my head.
"Come on, I'll walk you upstairs."
"Okay."
I went upstairs with him.
Actually, I didn't tell Xu Zheng.
Wang Zhan's words earlier made me feel particularly upset.
Although I no longer like him, I still care about what he said.
I can't forget the look in his eyes just now.
It was filled with disdain.
What right does he have to look at me like that?
What qualifications does he have?
I lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
At that moment, I heard a loud noise coming from downstairs.
It sounded like a fist hitting the wall.
It's Wang Zhan!
What's wrong with him?
This is the first time I've seen him so angry.
He has never been like this before.
For the next two days, Wang Zhan didn't go out at all.
Even Ma Jia was turned away by him.
His mother asked me what was going on.
I gave her Marin's phone number and said she was his girlfriend.
When Wang Zhan found out, he came to find me with a dark expression:
"Jiang Wan, what do you mean?" I looked at him calmly:
"I'm just letting Auntie find the right person."
"The right person?"
He sneered.
"Jiang Wan, don't try to play tricks on me."
"What tricks am I playing?"
"Then tell me, what's going on with Marin?"
"Weren't you the one who said she's your girlfriend?"
"And what about you?"
"Weren't you the one who said you wouldn't date?"
He glared at me with a cold expression.
I felt uneasy under his stare: "Wang Zhan, what exactly do you want to say?"
"Do you really want me to date?"
"Yes."
"I hope you're happy."
"Hmph..."
He let out a scoff.
"Hope I'm happy?"
"Jiang Wan, what gives you the right to decide my happiness?"
"I told you, I'm just letting your mom find the right person for you."
"Marin is just a setup you arranged, right?"
I was so angry I almost laughed: "Wang Zhan, can you tone down the theatrics?"
"Do you think everyone in the world should revolve around you?"
"I'm telling you, I, Jiang Wan, won't serve you anymore!"
"You can date whoever you want; it has nothing to do with me!"
"Fine."
He nodded.
