Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed Chapter 488 - 187 Just Want to See You One More Time, Mornin

Xie Ping sighed and then said reflectively, "If I ever fall in love, I’m definitely not going to let myself get swept away easily. I’ll save the most precious part of myself for my wedding day."

Zhang Ruoxue shook her head. "Who can say for sure in those situations? Matters of the heart don’t always make sense, and it’s hard to stay rational. A mont of impulse or a sudden rush of emotion, and you might give yourself away completely."

While they chatted, they waited for Li Yuan’s response. Nearly half an hour passed. Even coming from Daxia University, he should have arrived by now.

However, there was still no sign of Li Yuan, and Jiang Zhiyu’s phone hadn’t rung even once.

With a grim expression, Zhang Ruoxue cursed angrily, "That scumbag, Li Yuan! Does he not care about Zhiyu at all? I already told him she’s going abroad, and he’s still not doing anything?"

Xie Ping frowned and replied, "Let’s just wait a bit longer. Maybe he got held up."

"Hmph! Even if he’s busy, does he not have ti to make a single phone call? He just doesn’t have Zhiyu in his heart." The more Zhang Ruoxue thought about it, the more she felt it was unfair to her best friend.

"For all we know, he’s off having fun in the arms of so vixen."

Just as Zhang Ruoxue was seething with curses, a familiar ringtone suddenly echoed from the bedroom.

"If I saw you one more ti, would I still feel the sa? With a bare face to the sky... On rainy days, strolling the streets, laughing at others with sared makeup..."

Zhang Ruoxue, Xie Ping, and Li Qingqing were all very familiar with this ringtone.

After their duet at the welco party, Jiang Zhiyu had edited their part and set it as her ringtone.

Back then, they had all teased her, calling it Jiang Zhiyu’s "special love ringtone."

Zhang Ruoxue let out a sigh of relief and muttered, "That scumbag finally deigned to call. Let’s go see what he has to say."

The two of them hurried back to the bedroom and went to Jiang Zhiyu’s side. Li Yuan’s voice from the duet continued to play from the phone in her bag.

Steeling herself, Zhang Ruoxue carefully took the phone out of Jiang Zhiyu’s bag. A glance at the caller ID confird her suspicion; it clearly displayed the contact na "Xia Hua."

Zhang Ruoxue held the phone out to Jiang Zhiyu and whispered, "Zhiyu, your phone is ringing."

Jiang Zhiyu stared blankly at the phone in Zhang Ruoxue’s hand and the na on the screen. Her expression was dazed, and she remained silent, not reaching out to take it.

Seeing this, Xie Ping couldn’t help but gently urge her, "Zhiyu, you should answer it. Hear what he has to say. You owe it to yourself to get so closure."

Li Qingqing also chid in, "She’s right, Zhiyu. Hear what he says before you decide anything. You don’t have to go abroad. I’ve heard that Ugly Country is a ss, and they discriminate against our people. It’s so much better to stay here, with your sisters to keep you company..."

Jiang Zhiyu listened to her three roommates’ advice, the familiar ringtone filling her ears. That duet she had sung with him at the welco party was the happiest mont of her life, and what followed in the sports car had been a sweet, breathtaking dream, like floating on cloud nine... But now, the beautiful dream she had been imrsed in was completely shattered, forcing her to wake up and face reality. In fact, ever since she first went to Daxia University and saw Li Yuan, she knew he probably had a girlfriend. In her heart, he was just that outstanding—imnsely talented, tall, and handso. It would have been strange if no girls were into him. She just hadn’t wanted to believe it, so she deceived herself, actively avoiding the subject. She never brought it up. Instead, she just kept showing her love for Li Yuan, and he had responded in kind, which gave her the false impression that he didn’t have another girlfriend... But her willful ignorance, seeing only what she wanted to see, was bound to co to an end. When the truth was laid out before her, the beautiful dream she had woven completely shattered.

As her three roommates watched her intently, the thirty-second ringtone quickly ran its course. The phone stopped vibrating, and the beautiful duet faded into silence.

Xie Ping, Zhang Ruoxue, and Li Qingqing exchanged glances, each with a helpless, bitter smile.

If Jiang Zhiyu refused to answer Li Yuan’s call, all they could do was worry.

Xie Ping tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear and tried again, earnestly advising, "Zhiyu, I really think you should reconsider. Even if you break up, there’s no need to go abroad..."

Before she could finish, Jiang Zhiyu’s phone rang again, cutting her off.

All three imdiately looked at Jiang Zhiyu, waiting for her reaction.

After ringing for a few monts, Jiang Zhiyu finally moved. She reached out and took the phone from Zhang Ruoxue’s hand.

Under the nervous yet hopeful gazes of her three roommates, Jiang Zhiyu emotionlessly pressed the answer button.

Li Yuan’s voice imdiately ca through the speaker. "Little Fish, are you okay?"

Jiang Zhiyu responded softly with a quiet "Mm."

"I’m sorry."

That was Li Yuan’s second sentence.

Jiang Zhiyu didn’t reply. Tears were already welling up in her eyes.

Hearing her silence, Li Yuan paused for a mont before mustering the courage to speak his third sentence.
