Although Chen Jing seemed indifferent, she was troubled by Xu Jing’s impending departure.
Even in her youth, she understood that a girl like Xu Jing, who had a difficult childhood and lost her brother to an accident, felt resentment from her parents.
When parents asked about tuition fees, their attitude felt like charity. At home, they constantly berated her, making her feel unsafe and undermining her self-esteem.
A kind classmate helped her grow up, and she became increasingly dependent on this person, wanting to monopolize the friendship and not wanting anyone else to interfere. Unfortunately, she was killed by a perverted male protagonist out of jealousy.
Chen Jing couldn’t change Xu Jing’s fate, so she could only send her away to avoid this inexplicable death.
She’ll appease the perverted male protagonist she created in her book, even if she has to do it on her knees.
When Xu Jing left, she didn’t cry. With reddened eyes, she gave Chen Jing a fierce hug: “Tang Jia, wait for me.”
“She paused, then suddenly turned ferocious, biting her neck and gritting her teeth: ‘Don’t you dare forget me! If I find out you haven’t – you’ll face my revenge!’
Chen Jing winced in pain, ‘Hiss,’ and furrowed her brow slightly but didn’t push her away, instead nodding solemnly: ‘I definitely won’t forget you.’
Xu Jing, satisfied with the answer, hummed, then ran away.
She was afraid she couldn’t hold back her tears.
There are some people in this world whom you once thought would never be separated, no matter what happens. But reality is cruel. When it’s time to part, no matter how painful, how unwilling, you still have to separate.
Xu Jing boarded the plane, crying uncontrollably for hours despite the strange looks from others, until she cried herself to sleep, occasionally letting out a sob.
The gentleman sitting next to her watched her cry for as long as she did. When she finally fell asleep, her head tilting awkwardly, he sighed and gently rested her head on his shoulder, a look of tender compassion in his eyes.
After sending Xu Jing away, besides feeling heartache for the bite mark on her neck and shedding surface tears, Chu Zheng was secretly cursing that Xu Jing would die in a plane crash. He was clearly overjoyed.
