Hope Coffee House

Chapter 21

“When did Gao Qi first approach you?” Wu Liang used the sixth truth card on Zhang Mengzhu.

“In the second semester of her soph.o.m.ore year, she approached me and wanted to be my friend.”

“I never had friends in college. She was willing to be friends with me. At the beginning, I was very happy, and sincerely regarded her as my friend. I confided in her, and revealed all the secrets I had at home, as well as that of outside. She was always willing to listen to me and patiently comforted me. She never looked at me with colored gla.s.ses, like others had.”

(T/N: Meaning that she hadn"t falsely blamed or judged her like others did. Looking with colored gla.s.ses literally means having a false view/opinion on something.)

“But it wasn"t until my junior year that I discovered that she actually only pretended to be good to me, and had exposed all my secrets. Then, she put on an act, saying sympathetically that she hoped everyone would accept my name and talk to me! She has been using me as a friend to show her simplicity and kindness to others! “Zhang Mengzhu spat angrily.

The truth of Han Xu"s suicide had already come to light.

But Wu Liang did not feel the slightest sense of accomplishment, but felt uncomfortable, as if there was a boulder in his heart.

Wu Liang got up in a hurry, and before leaving, he took 2,000 yuan from his wallet and handed it to Zhang Mengzhu, “You have to finish the meal by yourself, I still have something to do and leave first. Thank you for today.”

Leaving the restaurant, Wu Liang returned to Hope Cafe, and quickly made himself a cup of sea salt caramel mocha.

It wasn"t until Wu Liang had finished drinking a whole cup of coffee that his heavy mood settled down.

Gao Qi"s method could only be described as murderous and extremely poisonous.

When she was a freshman, Gao Qi had already set her eyes on Han Xu, conducted a preliminary investigation and started to lay out her plan.

Therefore, at the New Year"s Day party, Gao Qi wore an angelic white dress and sang a sweet melody, which attracted Han Xu"s attention.

Subsequently, Han Xu began meeting up with Gao Qi, and since then, he fell into her trap.

Because Hao Xin had the intention to match the two, Gao Qi learned more about Han Xu"s likes and dislikes, and her behavior became more and more similar to Han Xu"s preferences. Han Xu also began madly pursuing Gao Qi.

A few months later, during the semester, Gao Qi played the first chess piece—the instructor, Mr. Dong.

Gao Qi booked a hotel outside the school. The emergency contact in her mobile phone was Teacher Dong"s phone number. She took 20 tablets of sleeping pills to commit suicide, and "just happened" to be discovered by the hotel cleaning aunt.

Teacher Dong came to know that Gao Qi had depression, and began to pay close attention to Gao Qi"s mental state, for fear that Gao Qi would have suicidal thoughts again.

A month later, Gao Qi agreed to Han Xu"s proposal, became his girlfriend, and began to have a deeper understanding of Han Xu.

Han Xu had a serious issue, which originated from his father.

When Han Xu was young, his father was constantly derailed, bringing endless pain to Han Xu"s mother, and casting a heavy shadow on Han Xu"s young mind.

Later, his father was unwilling to divorce Han Xu"s mother because of the problem of property division. Instead, he tried his best to make her life a living h.e.l.l, all of which exacerbated Han Xu"s hatred for his father.

In Han Xu"s eyes, his father was evil, unfaithful, selfish, hypocritical, shameless, and despicable.

Han Xu wanted to be different from his father.

Therefore, Han Xu was optimistic about life, and displayed sincerity, kindness, and enthusiasm. Most importantly, Han Xu would take love very seriously.

That"s why Han Xu confessed never made friends with the girls in the school, and solemnly told Hao Xin that he had to find a girl that would be with him alone, from dating to marriage.

Uncle Zhao who owned the j.a.panese restaurant was a sincere and kind person. This was greatly recognized by Han Xu. In addition, Uncle Zhao was just a stranger and not in Han Xu"s social circle, so he trusted Uncle Zhao, and was also Willing to talk to him.

When Han Xu started dating Gao Qi, he took Gao Qi to Uncle Zhao"s shop, and gradually revealed all the scars in his heart, and spread it in front of Gao Qi.

Han Xu believed Gao Qi and told her about his painful past in order to seek spiritual comfort. Uncle Zhao thought that Gao Qi was healing Han Xu"s psychological trauma. However, Gao Qi actually used his past to get a thorough understanding of Han Xu"s limit.
