Isn’t it true that when a person is having a streak of bad luck, even drinking cold water can get sothing stuck in their teeth? The saying ’blessings never co in pairs, but misfortunes never co alone’ is spot on.
Wang Xing called him, possibly too excited, and couldn’t keep his mouth shut, blurting out everything.
What did he an by saying he was interested in Ning Tong? Well, okay, at the ti he did have so feelings for her.
During high school, who didn’t have soone they liked? Of course, it wasn’t that much, just a slight crush, thinking the girl was quite pretty.
As for being a lovesick fool, that wasn’t the case at all. He never confessed his feelings. Of course, being in the sa class, Ning Tong probably knew sothing.
Ning Tong was a girl who studied well and looked good, at least she was considered one of the better-looking ones in their class.
Even though with his current perspective, she might only be slightly above average in looks, a minor beauty, during school days, mindsets weren’t as tainted as they are now. Good was just good. That was sothing he wouldn’t deny.
And Shen Yi clearly caught onto Wang Xing’s words ’you both liked her’ and began probing deeply.
Hearing this, Su Qing rolled his eyes helplessly, explained it to him, and didn’t hold back. After all, nothing happened, and being secretive would just seem more despicable.
After nearly half an hour, he finally clarified what Ning Tong, her husband, and he were to each other.
After hearing his explanation, Shen Yi’s face beca quite fascinating, suddenly feeling much better, then said with a smile:
"Couldn’t tell, your love history is so rich."
To this, Su Qing quickly raised his hand, "Stop, what do you an by love history? Throughout all three years of high school, we barely spoke a few words. Although there was so fondness at the ti, it was just that. You don’t know, during high school, there was soone called San’er, really handso guy, also good in studies. Back then, we all thought Ning Tong liked him."
That’s not a lie. Although he didn’t express his feelings, in a class with so few people, Wang Xing, Da Qiang, and Xigou were chatterboxes. With their talking and teasing, everyone in class knew he had a slight liking for Ning Tong, even the teacher could see it.
But Ning Tong didn’t date anyone for all three years of high school, and many thought she liked San’er. Because of this, San’er even talked to him about it, telling him to pursue her if he liked her, saying he definitely wasn’t interested.
Once he heard that, there was no point in pursuing. Young people are prideful. If you don’t want it, neither do I.
And so he held on until graduation, coupled with knocking off the class teacher’s wig during the last gathering, leaving the group, and gradually losing contact with everyone after college. He even changed his contact number once after graduating from college. Now he almost has no contact with high school classmates.
Counting San’er, who he secretly took offerings from, there were only four people, his social circle was that narrow.
"I know, the one more handso than you. But I have to say, your classmate is quite interesting?" Shen Yi rubbed his chin, his expression becoming intriguing.
"Hey? Why do you say that too?"
This was the second ti recently he’d heard soone use ’quite interesting’ to describe a person.
The first was Feng Yan, who described Bai Hao as quite interesting, which then stirred so thoughts. Now Shen Yi used this phrase to describe Ning Tong, which was intriguing.
"You and she and her marriage partner are all high school classmates, right?"
Su Qing nodded.
"And you and her marriage partner don’t get along?"
"I wouldn’t say we don’t get along, just didn’t see eye to eye during school. I thought he was pretentious, he thought I was hypocritical, but there was no substantial conflict."
Hearing this, Shen Yi smiled and continued, "Then wouldn’t she know? Yet in this scenario, she still wants your contact info and invites you. If she’s not plain dumb, she’s doing it on purpose. Did you offend her sohow?"
"No, why would I offend her?"
Having feelings and not confessing, could that sohow offend soone? If that’s the case, he’d just say won’s thoughts are too hard to decipher.
"See, isn’t that quite interesting?"
Hearing this, Su Qing realized it too. Yes, she knew he didn’t get along with Zhang Chao, yet she got his contact from Wang Xing to invite him to the wedding. What’s the point?
If you say she’s dumb, Su Qing wouldn’t believe it. Could a dumb person get into a top university in the capital? Among those in their class who got into top schools, Ning Tong was one of the few. Calling such a person dumb would surely be a joke.
"You an..." Su Qing asked.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi laid back on the sofa and stretched lazily, "Either she genuinely doesn’t care, thinking they’re just classmates, and if you bump into them, extend an invite. Or the one inviting isn’t her, but that classmate who doesn’t get along with you."
Shen Yi’s words were straightforward. The first reason being that she didn’t care about those school days issues at all. After all, everyone has graduated now, just treating it as old friends catching up, a kind of school reunion.
The second reason is Zhang Chao inviting him, wanting to flaunt a bit in front of him, to annoy him.
Look, the woman you used to like, I’ve got her. My family has money, are you mad?
That’s basically the gist of it.
And he thought about it, the second reason seed very possible since, in terms of family background, Zhang Chao’s family was indeed better than his.
"Also, maybe she was just being polite, saying things offhand, not genuinely planning to invite you!" Shen Yi jibed as he said this, seeing he wasn’t comnting.
"Let’s hope so." Su Qing replied awkwardly.
To this, Shen Yi raised one side of his mouth and directly asked, "If she really invites you, would you go?"
"Honestly, I really don’t want to go. It’s pointless. We didn’t have a good relationship during school, it’s been years with no contact, and suddenly a wedding invite is too exaggerated. Why? Would you go if it were you?" Su Qing counter-questioned.
"I’d go, why not? I’d be eager to. How interesting! Not just to see old classmates, but also let them see how I am now. If soone friendly invites you, you must go. If soone unfriendly invites you, you should definitely go. Otherwise, they might think we’re scared." Shen Yi said with excitent.
While the two were talking, Su Qing’s phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.
The two exchanged a glance, quickly guessing who it was.
"Answer it! Don’t be afraid, I’ve got your back!" Shen Yi kicked him lightly on the waist.
With that, Su Qing pressed the answer button.
"Hello?"
"Hello, is this Su Qing?" A gentle and calm voice ca from the phone.
"Hello, yes, it’s ."
"That’s great! I’m Ning Tong. I just ran into Wang Xing today and got your contact info!"
"Old classmate! Long ti no see. How have you been?" Su Qing pretended to be surprised.
"Pretty good. By the way, Zhang Chao and I are getting married. Would you like to co for a drink? There will be quite a few classmates from our class..."
Before Ning Tong could finish speaking, a man’s voice quickly interjected, "Old Su, it’s Zhang Chao here, haha. October 1st, co on over! Haven’t seen you in ages, it’d be great for us buddies to catch up!"
Zhang Chao’s voice was cheerful and cordial, leaving no room for fault. As the saying goes, ’you don’t hit a smiling face,’ no matter what happened before, when soone invites you now, you can’t refuse.
"Old Zhang! Congratulations, man! You did it!" Su Qing put on a fake smile and continued, "You say October 1st? I..."
Before he could finish, Shen Yi saw his frown and quickly kicked him with her foot again.
"No problem!"
"Whew! I thought you’d be too busy with work to co. Alright, I’ll add you on WeChat later and send you the details. See you then!" Zhang Chao’s voice ca through.
Just as Su Qing was about to speak, Shen Yi, who had been lounging on the sofa, suddenly turned around and got off the couch, controlling her volu as she said:
"Honey, who’s calling?"
This move truly caught Su Qing off guard. Shen Yi’s voice was mature and intellectual, a true mature woman’s voice, with a tone that was both alluring and languid. Just hearing it could make soone tense up and tremble slightly.
"Su Qing...you have a girlfriend?" Ning Tong asked.
"Yes, and who might you be?" Shen Yi inquired.
Upon hearing this, there was a burst of laughter from Ning Tong and Zhang Chao on the other end:
"Hahaha, perfect! Old Su, bring your girlfriend along when you co. It’ll be fun with everyone gathering together!"
To this, Su Qing naturally didn’t agree, but neither did he refuse. He just played along, saying they’d see when the ti ca. In the end, he agreed to the matter.
