"Jiang Wan, you have guts."
He turned and walked away.
Xu Zheng found out and came to my house to ask me,
"After I left, Wang Zhan didn't do anything to you, right?"
"No."
"Really nothing?"
"Yeah."
"How could he do anything to me?"
"We just grew up together; we're like half-siblings."
"Do you really believe he only sees you as a sister?"
Xu Zheng's words made me silent.
In fact, I had already noticed.
Wang Zhan's attitude towards me had long exceeded the boundaries of friendship.
He just wouldn't admit it.
I didn't want to admit it either.
I shook my head, "I don't know."
"Wanwan, why don't you move over to my place?"
"Why?"
"I have an apartment nearby that's vacant, and the rent is cheaper than yours."
"Is that so?"
"Yes, I'm worried about you living so close to Wang Zhan."
"This..."
"Think about it some more."
"Okay."
I agreed.
After all, Wang Zhan's recent emotions were indeed a bit frightening.
I didn't want to have any more conflicts with him.
I contacted Marin and asked if she still wanted to move over.
She said she didn't plan to live alone.
She wanted to transfer the apartment to another girl,
a girl I also knew, who had eaten with Wang Zhan before; her name is Zhenzhen.
She and Marin are colleagues and friends.
Wang Zhan didn't know about this.
When he came looking for me, I had already packed my luggage.
"Are you moving out?"
"Yes."
"Where are you moving to?"
"That's none of your business."
"Jiang Wan, are you trying to provoke me?"
He was angry again.
I scoffed, "Wang Zhan, you’re meddling too much."
"Don't forget, you pushed me into this."
"I pushed you?"
"Yes."
"Then tell me, what did I push you to do?"
"You..."
He glared at me but couldn't find the words.
"Speak up."
"Jiang Wan, do you really want to stir things up with me?"
"I'm not stirring anything up."
"Then tell me, where are you planning to move?"
"I don't need to report my whereabouts to you."
"Are you moving in with Xu Zheng?"
"No."
"Are you two going to live together?"
"Wang Zhan, are you out of your mind?"
"So I was right, wasn't I?"
He smiled, a terrifying smile.
"Jiang Wan, do you really like him that much?"
"Yes."
"What do you like about him?"
"I like that he’s gentler than you, more considerate than you, and more mature than you!"
"Is that all?"
"Yes."
"Then tell me, what has he done that makes you like him so much?"
"He..."
I suddenly realized something.
"Wang Zhan, are you trying to trap me in your words?"
"Aren't you the one who said he’s more mature than me?"
"Then tell me, what has he done that makes you think he's mature?"
"Is it because he can be hands-on with you?"
"You..."
I was so angry I couldn't speak.
"Jiang Wan, say something."
"Tell me, did he touch you?"
"What does it have to do with you?"
"Just tell me!"
He shouted angrily.
This was the first time Wang Zhan had ever yelled at me.
I was startled.
Why was he so angry?
What was he really upset about?
On moving day, Xu Zheng also came.
He picked up a photo from my middle school days and studied it for a long time.
I quickly hid it away: "Don't look at that."
"Sorry, I didn't ask for your permission."
"It's fine."
"Why did you have short hair in middle school?"
"Don't you think I looked cool like this?"
"Yeah."
He nodded.
"You really did look cool."
"Hehe."
I smiled.
Most of the things had already been moved.
Xu Zheng stood up and wiped his sweat: "Finally done."
"Thanks for your hard work."
"Don't be so polite with me."
"Let's go, let's head downstairs first."
"Okay."
