Chapter 2459: Getting Back Together
An Rui did not know about Ye Tian’s post at first.
Later, Ye Tian and Gu Yang wore engagement rings on stage and kissed each other. When she took a beautiful scene, she saw that her Weibo comments and private messages were about to explode.
When An Rui saw Ye Tian’s post, her tears fell.
The moment Ye Tian and Gu Yang wore each other’s rings, she could not help but cry. Now, she was crying again.
A slender hand reached over and handed her a tissue.
An Rui glanced at Zhou Li, who was sitting beside her. She took the tissue and thanked him.
When she turned back, she met with Shen Mingxiu’s eyes.
After Ye Tian and Gu Yang got married, almost all of their high school cla.s.smates came, except those who could not make it back from abroad.
It could be seen that Ye Tian and Gu Yang were very popular.
Shen Mingxiu had been a little unhappy with Gu Yang and Ye Tian last time, but after all, they had been friends for many years. It was impossible for him not to come when they were at their happiest.
He did not come alone today, he even brought a pure and beautiful woman with him.
The woman was a socialite from the Capital. An Rui had seen her once at a high-cla.s.s banquet. Her family was in real estate.
When Shen Mingxiu was chatting with the other students, he mentioned that his parents had asked him to meet the woman on a blind date. They had just met and the woman wanted to represent the family to attend Gu Yang and Ye Tian’s engagement party, so they came together.
When Shen Mingxiu was explaining, he glanced at An Rui, wanting to see something from her face, but he was disappointed.
An Rui’s expression was rather calm.
Shen Mingxiu’s heart was slightly depressed and heavy. He was still trapped in his past relations.h.i.+p, but she had already walked out of it.
She did not seem to care about him at all!
In the past few days, he had actually thought about many things. He had done something wrong, but she did not even give him a chance and sentenced him to death!
After the engagement ceremony, Gu Yang and Ye Tian toasted each other. They toasted their parents and relatives first.
Their high school cla.s.smates sat at three tables while Shen Mingxiu and the rest sat at the same table.
Everyone had not seen Zhou Li for a long time and the topic was on him.
After so many years, everyone’s aura had more or less changed. Only Zhou Li was still so reserved, refined, and gentle, with no sense of distance.
Shen Mingxiu went over with a gla.s.s of wine and clinked gla.s.ses with Zhou Li.
“I should call you Doctor Zhou now. We won’t have the chance to meet after you return to the country. I don’t know how you’re doing recently either. I wonder if you’ve found a girlfriend overseas?”
Zhou Li smiled gently. “No.”
“How can I do that? Don’t just care about your career. Look, Brother Yang is already engaged. You have to have a girlfriend too.” Shen Mingxiu glanced at An Rui. Seeing her eating with her head lowered, a complicated look appeared in his eyes and he lowered his voice. “Are you still thinking about her?”
Zhou Li froze slightly.
“If you don’t mind, how about I introduce you to a girl? I promise that she’s worthy of you in all aspects!”
Zhou Li pursed his lips. “Okay.”
An Rui, who was eating, tightened her grip on her chopsticks when she heard Zhou Li’s answer.
She looked up at Zhou Li and Shen Mingxiu, who had already sat down to drink.
An Rui picked up the wine gla.s.s on the table and drank a gla.s.s unconsciously.
Ye Tian and Gu Yang toasted their table. Ye Tian saw that An Rui’s face was red and there was a trace of drunkenness in her eyes. She asked softly, “Ruirui, why did you drink? Don’t get drunk!”
An Rui went forward and hugged Ye Tian. “I’m happy to see you and Gu Yang have a happy ending.”
“Silly girl, you will meet your own happiness in the future.”
An Rui sighed in her heart.
A happy relations.h.i.+p would make people confident and sunny, but a hurt relations.h.i.+p would traumatize people.
Although she no longer had feelings for Shen Mingxiu, she was still afraid that she would meet a man like him in the future.
He was very good to her at first, but when she thought that he would be good to her for the rest of her life, he gave her a fatal blow!
After drinking a gla.s.s with Ye Tian and Gu Yang, An Rui sat down and poured another gla.s.s of wine for herself.
Zhou Li looked at An Rui and took her wine gla.s.s away, pouring a gla.s.s of water for her.
An Rui glared at Zhou Li angrily.
And the kind that did not like him!
An Rui did not speak to Zhou Li again until the end of the engagement party.
Shen Mingxiu had been paying attention to their actions and seeing that they did not even look at each other, he was relieved.
Perhaps he was thinking too much. Although Zhou Li was outstanding, he was not An Rui’s type!
Ye Tian had sent a car to send An Rui back. When they arrived at the district, she glanced at the roof.
Zhou Li’s apartment was already lit up. He should be back.
An Rui drank some wine and walked a little unsteadily. When she got out of the elevator, she did not go to her apartment, but knocked on Zhou Li’s door.
After a while, the door was opened.
Zhou Li must have just taken a bath and came out in a hurry. His hair was wet and without his gla.s.ses, his facial features looked handsome and refined. An Rui had one hand on the door frame and glanced at him, saying with a slightly cold voice, “Zhou Li, Shen Mingxiu is introducing a girlfriend to you. Are you really going to meet her?”
Zhou Li did not expect her to ask this. After a moment of silence, he avoided her gaze and said calmly, “Yes.”
“I thought you didn’t want to have a girlfriend and wanted to focus on your career?” An Rui raised her voice.
Zhou Li glanced at her and quickly looked away. “Let’s meet and understand the situation first.”
“You didn’t even like a woman who threw herself at you before. Why did you agree to meet her when Shen Mingxiu said that he wanted to introduce a girlfriend to you? Do you listen to Shen Mingxiu that much?”
Zhou Li looked at the furious An Rui and frowned. “You drank too much.”
An Rui stared at Zhou Li for a few seconds before she waved her hand and laughed. “That’s true. The people Shen Mingxiu knows are all beauties. I’m sure the ones he introduced to you won’t be too bad. We might meet after meeting them.”
“Ha, Dr Zhou is about to get out of singlehood. Congratulations!”
An Rui said as she staggered toward her apartment.
Zhou Li saw that she was shaking terribly and wanted to help her, but she shook him off. “Don’t touch me!”
Zhou Li’s hand froze in midair.
“An Rui, what’s wrong?” He looked at her and asked softly.
An Rui had already walked to the door and took out the keys from her bag. “I’m nothing. I’m just happy for you. You’re about to get the beauty. How nice!”
Before he could say anything, she had already opened the door and walked in.
She slammed the door shut.
Her slender body leaned against the door, her eyes turning red.
She did not know why she was suffering. It was none of her business if Zhou Li found a girlfriend!
They were just cla.s.smates!
An Rui knocked her head and squatted down, hugging herself tightly.
