Chapter 333: The Heartbroken
Chapter 333: Chapter 333: The Heartbroken
Wang Jinju patted Huang Jingping\'s back gently like a mother comforting her child, \'Cry, no matter what happens, it\'s always better to cry it out,\'
Huang Jingping was not crying as loudly as when she first met Wang Jinju, but sobbing, and it looked like it might not stop for a while. Wang Jinju and Jin Ling looked at each other and smiled wryly, this was not going to work.
One gently lifted her head, while the other held a glass of water to her lips. \'Have a sip of water, okay?\'
No wonder Feng Yiping told them to buy dextrose. In just a short while, a large patch of Wang Jinju\'s shirt in front of her chest was wet with Huang Jingping\'s tears.
Huang Jingping leaned softly against Wang Jinju, and when she looked up, dazed, she saw that in the space of just a few hours, she had completely changed from the person she had been when they left in the morning.
Her eyes seemed to have no focus, her face was red from crying, her complexion was pale, and some of her hair was stuck to her face. She looked so pitiful that even Jinling felt her heart ache.
Wang Jinju carefully wiped the tears off her face with a towel and smoothed her messy hair. \'Have a drink first,\' Jinling said, holding up a glass.
She was really thirsty. Huang Jingping sniffled and gulped down the glass of water, only then noticing that it was Jinling holding the glass. She tried to force a smile and say hello, but almost burst into tears again. In the end, she just nodded dully at her.
\'No need to greet me, you lie down for a while first!\'
Huang Jingping closed her eyes and leaned against the bed. \'Okay, lie down for a while first,\' Wang Jinju helped her lie down. She obediently lay on her side, still holding Wang Jinju\'s hand, not crying anymore, but her body still twitched.
After waiting for a while to see if she had calmed down, Jinling sat over her and patted her a few times. \'Have you calmed down a bit? What exactly happened? Tell me first. If he bullied you, I\'ll help you get even with him,\'
\'Yes, you were fine when you left in the morning. What exactly happened? Tell us and we\'ll help you think of a solution,\' Wang Jinju said.
Hearing them ask, Huang Jingping\'s tears were about to overflow again, so they both hurriedly said, \'Let\'s stop talking, you rest for a while,\'
Huang Jingping didn\'t seem to have the ability to move at the moment, so Wang Jinju helped her take off her outer clothes and then covered her up. Jin Ling thought for a moment, then went over and gently closed the curtains. At this time, Huang Jingping weakly said the first words they had spoken since they arrived, \'Is he downstairs?\'
\'Yes, do you want me to call him up?\'
\'No!\'
\'Okay, I\'ll tell him to go, okay?\'
Huang Jingping didn\'t say anything, and Jin Ling sighed. She walked to the top of the stairs, where Feng Yiping was still sitting. He heard her footsteps and looked up at her.
Jin Ling sighed, put her arm around his shoulders, sat down next to him, and said, \'I\'m going to ask what happened, but you\'re not going to tell me. So why don\'t you go stay at my place tonight? With you here, I don\'t think Jingping will be embarrassed to talk about it. Besides, if there\'s an emergency at the company, you need to be there. So you might as well skip going to school for a couple of days.\' She handed Feng Yiping the key to her place.
\'What about here?\'
\'Don\'t worry, I\'ll take care of it. I think she\'ll tell you everything tonight. No matter what she\'s been through, she\'ll feel better after she\'s told you. And from what I know of Jingping, she\'s not a stubborn person, so she\'ll be fine.\'
You don\'t know what this is about! But Jinling is right. Only if he\'s not there will Huang Jingping be able to talk to the two of them about girl stuff.
\'Then please take care of her, Jinling!\'
\'Oh, by the way, you can take my car. If you really can\'t, I\'ll take her out for a drive to cheer her up.\'
\'There\'s food in the kitchen. If you don\'t want to cook tonight, just give me a call and I\'ll bring you something.\'
\'Don\'t worry about these little things. Go now. And be careful on the road. You don\'t look well. Don\'t think about anything now, don\'t do anything. Just go to my place and get some sleep.\'
\'And remember to give her plenty of water to drink,\'
\'I know. I can take better care of her than you can.\'
Letting himself fall onto the sofa in Jinling\'s house, Feng Yiping also felt a bit of a headache. The bits and pieces of Zhang Yan and Huang Jingping\'s lives were spinning around in his head like a Chinese lantern, and he really couldn\'t tell which was more important. He just knew that both of them had weight, and he couldn\'t give up either one.
In saying all of this today, he had actually already made up his mind. During those days in Hong Kong, he had endured a lot. After moving to the new house, he really didn\'t want to endure anymore, to restrain himself any longer.
He wants to take that final step with Huang Jingping as soon as possible, but before the relationship with Huang Jingping breaks through, he doesn\'t want to hide these words, because if he can\'t let go of Zhang Yan in his heart, then he definitely won\'t be able to hide this either.
This is not something like when you go out for a drink and the lady who keeps you company in the KTV leaves a lipstick mark on the collar of your shirt, or when you are on a business trip and can\'t sleep in the middle of the night, and you finally answer the phone that keeps ringing in your room.
If you occasionally pick a wildflower by the roadside, the person you live with may not notice, but if you have another person in your heart, your partner is unlikely to remain unaware.
After all is said and done, being unfaithful is still being unfaithful, and saying these things doesn\'t make you a man of responsibility.
However, Feng Yiping always feels that it\'s better to say these things before taking off your clothes than after pulling up your trousers.
This is his bottom line.
To be honest, he doesn\'t want to let either one go, but he really doesn\'t have any experience in how to do it. He only knows one thing: at least, don\'t hurt them and don\'t make them feel cheated.
He can\'t and won\'t hide from Zhang Yan in front of Huang Jingping, and hide from Huang Jingping in front of Zhang Yan, and then do what needs to be done.
If Huang Jingping really can\'t accept it, then let\'s just maintain the current relationship and slowly figure it out in the future.
He is also considered to be a relatively traditional person. If it is simply for pleasure and fun, it doesn\'t matter, but if it is with someone you want to be with for the rest of your life, it is different. There is a big difference between doing something and not doing it.
He thinks Huang Jingping probably sensed these things in her heart before. Girls are naturally sensitive in this regard.
Of course, before he said anything, he thought that Huang Jingping must be feeling bad, but he didn\'t expect Huang Jingping to be so sad!
He sat up and called Jin Ling. \'How is she now?\'
\'She finally fell asleep. She\'s fine, don\'t worry!\'
How could Feng Yiping feel at ease? He stood up and paced around the living room, calling Xiao Zhijie and Wang Changning? Calling his parents? Calling his younger brother and sister?
No, he had long since passed the stage of telling people everything that happened to him, and besides, there was nothing anyone else could do in a situation like this.
He just felt like he couldn\'t stay at home, didn\'t want to be alone, and went back to the university. Everyone was about to finish class, and he suddenly felt like drinking.
Jinling hung up the phone, waved to Wang Jinju, who was sitting by the bed, and Wang Jinju tiptoed out. \'General Jin,\'
Jin Ling led her to the balcony. \'You and Jingping were very close?\'
\'We were classmates in junior high school. We used to talk about everything,\'
\'No wonder Jingping trusted you so much! By the way, you were transferred from the province to the capital this time, and Yiping mentioned it to me. I\'ve seen it. The store you ran in the city was very successful, with a good foundation. Why would you make such a request? You have to know that here in the capital, everything is starting from scratch.\'
\'I didn\'t ask for it,\' Wang Jinju looked inside to make sure Huang Jingping wasn\'t awake, and then said, \'Before the semester started, Yiping called me without telling Jingping and asked me to come here for a month after the National Day holiday. I now think that he must have foreseen today\'s situation.\'
Jin Ling nodded, that\'s right, that\'s the Feng Yiping in her mind who has considered every possible move, who transferred Jingping\'s best friend in advance so that she wouldn\'t be sad and have no one to talk to. In that case, does that mean that no matter what happens this time, everything will be fine in the end?
Feng Yiping drove the Jinling Z3 to school, attracting a lot of attention along the way. There was nothing he could do about it. Sports cars were not very practical in China, where cars were not yet commonplace, but they were great at attracting attention.
On an ordinary day, he might have flirted with some of the pretty female students, but today he wasn\'t in the mood. He didn\'t want to walk either, so for the first time, he drove the car directly to the dormitory building.
There were not many luxury cars that drove down to the dormitory building, but every time one came in, it would attract everyone\'s attention. Feng Yiping was no different now. There were quite a few heads poking out of the upstairs windows. He heard someone say, \'Holy cow, a sports car!\'
Feng Yiping was feeling a bit low at the moment and didn\'t want to go upstairs. Just then, he saw Han Guiliang walking towards him with two girls, chatting away. He called out, \'Lao San,\'
and looked at Feng Yiping sitting in such an exquisite streamlined car. Han Guiliang\'s eyes widened. "Lao Wu, you\'ve changed your car again, this is really awesome!" He walked quickly over, put his hand on the car, feeling and looking at it, \'This car is really beautiful!\'
\'Guiliang, is this your classmate?\' Two girls followed behind.
\'This is our roommate, Yiping, and these are my classmates,\' Han Guiliang felt that his back was straighter when he was talking to female classmates.
\'Hello,\' Feng Yiping also greeted the two girls without taking a closer look. \'Lao San, are the others here?\'
\'Yes, the others should be here, Lao Si is in class, but it\'s over now, he should be here soon,\'
\'Can you go up and ask them, I\'ll treat everyone to dinner, and by the way, you two classmates can come too!\'
Han Guiliang could see that Feng Yiping\'s face looked a little bad, \'Just wait a minute!\'
Before he could go upstairs, Liang Yonggao ran down the stairs while putting on his jacket, "Fifth Brother, it really is you!" He opened the car door and quickly slipped into the passenger seat, \'Fifth Brother, you always get the best cars!\'
Without Han Guiliang going up, Jinbao and Yan Zhida also got out. Feng Yiping didn\'t feel comfortable sitting in the car anymore, so he stood up holding the door. \'Boss, I\'ll treat everyone to dinner at the Sichuan restaurant outside the South Gate. Could you please leave a message for the fourth one, telling him to come over after class?\'
Jin Bao\'s attention was now also focused on the car. He opened the door and carried Liang Yonggao out like a little chicken, \'Let me feel it too!\'
Han Guiliang said, "I\'ll go upstairs and leave a note," and ran upstairs.
Yan Zhida, with his arms folded, asked with a smile, \'Fifth brother, whose car is this?\'
\'My sister\'s,\'
\'Sister, heh, it can\'t be a sister by blood,\' he still smiled, but the smile looked meaningful.
\'Yan Zhida,\' Feng Yiping stared at him and said word by word, \'if you want to look for trouble today, I will accompany you!\'
Now that he is only saying such things, he feels that he has already restrained himself. You\'re the one who keeps looking for abuse, and I will fulfill your wish today!
Jinbao only felt that the atmosphere was not right at this time, especially Feng Yiping\'s current expression, which was a bit intimidating.
In the past, when Feng Yiping said these strange and sour things, he didn\'t pay much attention, but now, Yan Zhida looked at Feng Yiping\'s cold and indifferent eyes, feeling a little scared and panicked. He didn\'t dare to look him in the eye, and tilted his head to the side. However, he was still unconvinced and wanted to say something more. Liang Yonggao held him back, \'Second brother,\'
\'Okay, second brother, just keep quiet. Will you die if you don\'t say anything weird?\' Jin Bao shoved Liang Yonggao into the car and said to Feng Yiping, "You two go ahead, we\'ll be there in a bit.\'
After Feng Yiping had left, Jin Bao said to Yan Zhida, who was still a little angry, "Second brother, I\'m not talking about you. Normally, it\'s fine if you say these things, but today, can\'t you see that fifth brother is troubled? It\'s fine if you don\'t help to ease the situation, but saying things like that, is that what brothers do? Since the start of the school year, Yiping has never picked on you or bothered you, right? The fact that he doesn\'t usually argue with you doesn\'t mean that he won\'t argue with you forever. Think about it!\'
Han Guiliang had already come downstairs by this point, standing next to two female classmates, shaking his head as he watched Yan Zhida. If anyone couldn\'t stand Yan Zhida, it was him. Relying on the fact that he had a Beijing household registration, and not knowing what kind of official his father was, he liked to act big.
No one could guess Yan Zhida\'s thoughts. Yes, Feng Yiping had never deliberately provoked him, but Feng Yiping always easily stole the limelight that should have been his. And now everyone knew from other people\'s mouths that Feng Yiping was the top liberal arts student in their province, and he had outperformed Yan Zhida in studies. This was provoking him to death.
What\'s the big deal about a country bumpkin with two unknown stinking fortunes? What\'s the big deal about being the top liberal arts student in a province?
Jin Bao and the others had only been there a short while when Lu Wenqing arrived on his bicycle. There was already a large table of food on the table, along with beer and white wine. Of course, Yan Zhida hadn\'t shown up, but no one cared.
Feng Yiping poured a full glass of beer and said, \'Come, today I am especially honoured to have invited two beautiful female classmates of San Ge, along with a few brothers. There\'s nothing much to do, just get together. Everyone must eat and drink well. Let\'s clink glasses first!\'
Everyone knows that Feng Yiping is troubled, but after a month or two, they have also come to know his temper. If he doesn\'t want to talk about it, you won\'t get it out of him no matter what, so they don\'t bother. They just want to enjoy the meal with him.
Feng Yiping has drunk four bottles, and when he wants to drink more, Jin Bao presses his glass down. \'Fifth brother, that\'s enough. Eat something to fill your stomach,\'
\'Yes, that\'s enough. Boss, bring the food,\' Liang Yonggao shouts at the waiter as he stands at the door of the private room.
Although there are so many canteens at school, and there are quite a few dishes with good flavours, there is not enough food for everyone, so you can\'t get it every time. Everyone had a very happy meal, and it didn\'t take long. By the time Jin Bao helped Feng Yiping out of the door, it was almost ten o\'clock.
Feng Yiping took out a card and threw it to Jin Bao, \'I\'m not going back to the dormitory today. I\'ll treat everyone to karaoke and a hotel room,\'
Jin Bao looked at his group, who were reeking of alcohol, and thought that it would be fine to stay outside.
However, after checking into the hotel, Feng Yiping was too sleepy to go for a karaoke session. \'Lao Wu, you go with Lao San and his classmates to karaoke, I\'ll take Lao Si to the room first,\'
\'No need, Lao Da, it\'s not early, let\'s all go up together,\' Han Guiliang said.
\'That\'s fine,\'
looking at Feng Yiping, who was still wearing a worried expression even though he was asleep, Han Guiliang wondered what had happened to him to make him so worried.
Jinbao felt in Feng Yiping\'s pocket and found his mobile phone. He flipped open the phone and dialed Huang Jingping\'s number. After a short ringing, someone picked up, but it didn\'t sound like Huang Jingping. \'Who is this?\'
\'I\'m his sister,\'
\'Hello sister, Yiping drank too much and couldn\'t go home. We\'re with him at the hotel, don\'t worry.\'
Jinbao asked for the address. \'Okay, I\'ll trouble you tonight, I\'ll come and pick him up in the morning.\'
In the middle of the night, Feng Yiping woke up feeling dry and thirsty. The bedside lamp was on, and on the other side of the bed, Jin Bao was fast asleep with his face facing this way. He picked up his phone and looked at it. It was already past one in the morning.
He saw that there was an unread text message on his phone, sent by Huang Jingping twenty minutes ago: \'Have I taken her place in your heart?\'
\'No, you originally had a place in my heart.\'
This was also the truth. As the first girl he had a crush on, and as the first member of the opposite sex he had fallen in love with, Huang Jingping had always had a place in his heart, even after he got married.
