C28 Repeat

With a relaxed expression, Ou Jingyi sipped the hot milk in small sips. She even started imagining the happy lives she and Ou Jia Rui would have after I left after being greatly stimulated.

Before this, I had always felt that the kindness that Ou Jia Rui had shown me was out of sympathy. Perhaps it was because Ou Jingyi had broken my peaceful life and made up for it with guilt. Both of these attitudes gave me a feeling of inferiority.

Later, as Ocari took more careful care of me every day, I gradually began to fantasize that there might be a trace of goodwill and affection in his sympathy and guilt.

It was only when the truth was right in front of me that I realized I was nothing.

If I had to define my identity, I think I would just be a double for Ou Jia Rui to remember her first love.

Zhou Xinyao was Zhou Xinyao. Being someone else's substitute was like a sharp thorn that stabbed deeply into my heart.

After leaving the café, I didn't want to go back to the Ou Family.

Leaving aside the fact that I had to face the care and attention of Ozara when I got home from work, even being in a house filled with the scent of Ozara and Ozie made me feel suffocated.

Casually strolling in the shopping mall, walking and stopping between different shops, he would sit on a shopping mall bench to rest when he was tired.

His mind was blank and he did not want to think about anything.

Not long after that, they met Ou Jingyi who was walking out of the coffee shop.

Her mental state and mood seemed to be very good. "Why hasn't Miss Zhou left yet? Do you want me to drive you back?"

After all, any girl with a little bit of personality wouldn't be able to bear the fact that the man who showed you all kinds of kindness, who asked you all kinds of questions, was carrying another woman that was similar to her in some ways.

Even so, the stubborn me didn't want to admit defeat in front of Ou Jingyi or even show weakness. I forced out a dignified and generous smile, "I wanted to buy some things nearby, so I just casually strolled around. Miss Ou, let's go home first. I think Mister would like to see you?"

"Oh, it's alright. Lin Qian, you have been sticking to me shamelessly every day. I'm getting a little annoyed, but are you really okay?" I understand you. If I knew I was just a double for another woman, I wouldn't be able to stand it. " Ou Jingyi's fake smile made me want to hit her, but all I could do was try to restrain myself.

"I won't trouble Miss Ou to worry about my mood. Please take a good rest and prepare to be Mr. Lin's most beautiful bride." My words were a huge blow to Ou Jingyi.

Ou Jingyi didn't say anything else. She showed a demonstration smile and turned to leave.

It was as if all my strength had been sucked out of me. I collapsed into a chair, and the passers-by couldn't help but look at me.

The department store was a little stuffy. I walked slowly out of the store and wandered aimlessly down the street.

He didn't know when, but his feet had already uncontrollably arrived at the place where he'd first met Ou Jia Rui.

The first time I met him was on a snowy day when I was run over by his car. Looking back, it was then that my life began to take on these earth-shattering changes, and Ozara slowly invaded my life like a warm spring. As I gradually got used to it, life mercilessly gave me a resounding slap.

I don't know what kind of feelings I have for O'Jia Rui. I can't say I admire her, but I don't hate her either.

Only this time, I was hurt and hurt.

Just as I was letting my thoughts and feet wander in this bizarre world, the ear-piercing sound of my cell phone suddenly broke my thoughts and sorrow.

The two words "Ou Jia Rui" on the screen astonishingly appeared in front of me. I subconsciously hung up the phone. I didn't know what kind of mood I should have when facing Ou Jia Rui; I was afraid that if I heard his voice, I would either cry hysterically or scream at the top of my lungs.

I still didn't have the will to pick up the phone. I just let him continue ringing. After a long time, it seemed that he had given up.

When I thought I could finally have peace, a message popped up:

"Where are you? What's the matter with not coming home at this late hour and not answering the phone? Do you want me to pick you up while you're at it? When you have time, you must answer my letter. " The worry between the lines was self-evident, but the more I thought about it, the more sarcastic I felt.

"I'm just strolling around to get some fresh air. Don't worry, there's no media to follow me, and no one can recognize me. I'll take a taxi home later."

"Alright."

But she had already changed her clothes and was ready to go out. Since she didn't know where I was, she could only slowly drive around in search of the place he remembered me from before.

For safety reasons, I had always been wandering around the bustling area with many people. I didn't expect that I would be found by Ou Jia Rui just like that.

Maybe there is some kind of guidance, allowing both of us to arrive at the first meeting place at the same time.

When Ou Jia Rui's Audi stopped beside me, I couldn't calm down for a while. When Ou Jia Rui called out to me, I just stood there stunned and didn't do anything until his voice became a little louder: "Zhou Xinyao, hurry up and get in the car. We can't stop here. It would be terrible if we were caught breaking the rules."

I jumped onto the passenger seat as if waking from a dream.

"What is it? Not in a good mood? Wanting to wander around here by myself? " O'Jia Rui asked after helping me fasten my seat belt.

"No, I was just strolling around." I answered absentmindedly, but kept my eyes on the traffic outside the window.

Ou Jia Rui nodded: "Then do you need me to take you to other places to relax? I know of a few good bookstores and cafes for people who are not in a good mood to go there and be quiet. "

"No need." I tidied up my hair that had been messed up by the wind and also tidied up my messy mood. "Let's go home."

Although it is early spring, A City, as a northern city, the evening breeze is still a little chilly. Seeing that I had finished speaking and was constantly blowing on my hands, O'Jia Rui stopped in front of a small milk tea shop.

"Wait for me here." Then he got out of the car.

Not long later, Ou Jia Rui passed a cup of hot milk tea to me: "Take it. Warm your hands. It tastes really good too. When I was young, I often drank at this house or did homework."

The words "when he was young" were too far away for me, because it was beyond my understanding that a man like him would do such things.

I stick the straw in my mouth and take a long sip of warm milk tea. It's sweet and mellow and not greasy at all, and there's still a bit of fruit taste in my mouth. Maybe not many girls can resist drinks and sweets. But then I wondered if he had also invited Ou Jingyi's mother to meet him at the milk tea shop that she used to frequent when she was young.

When his thoughts reached there, the milk tea in his hand seemed to have become less tasty.

"O'Ciaran," I said suddenly, calling his name.

"Hmm?"

"Are you still in contact with the girl you fell in love with?" In the end, I couldn't help but ask this question.

Ou Jia Rui only had a second of hesitation before she replied. "It's been a while, and she's not a girl anymore. I'm already this old, she was a little older than me then."

Seeing that I was listening attentively to his story of my love affair, Ochira took advantage of the lack of traffic and pedestrians to turn his head and look at me. "Why are you asking me this all of a sudden?"

"Nothing." I decided to temporarily hide the matter that Ou Jingyi had promised me this afternoon. After calming down, I felt that Ou Jia Rui was the one that was more trustworthy than Ou Jingyi. I wanted to continue to inquire about the news.

After a long silence, I continued with a crucial question. "Do I look like that lady?"

"You must have a child when you're young. Life is a challenge for both of you," O'Jia Rui paused for a moment. I pretended not to notice as I looked out of the window, but in fact, I had already perked up my ears to listen to what he had to say. "The only difference is that you're cuter than her."

This "more lovable" compliment, to me, was like a boastful compliment to a neighbor's little sister, without credibility or value, and I managed a smile. "Thank you," I said.

The car drove all the way to the Ou family house, and I no longer had the mood or courage to ask any more questions.

Although I spent the whole night outside with only some milk tea in my stomach, I had no appetite, so I told Ojaru that I had already eaten dinner and went back to my room to rest.

He lay on the bed, tossing and turning. Then he got up from the bed and looked at his phone.

I didn't have the time to delete many of Lin Qianhe's photos. In the photos, we were young and happy, at least from the surface, both of us had a happy smile on our faces. Looking at one by one, it was these seemingly beautiful stories and experiences that prompted me to walk step by step towards the bottomless abyss that Lin Qian had personally designed for me.

There was a picture of my mother on my phone. When I found that photo, it had already turned yellow due to the age of the past. At that time, my mother already had me in her stomach. Although my father was nowhere to be seen, when she touched her belly with her hands, a kind smile appeared on her face.

This should be the only picture my mother and I had of each other, and it was a little far-fetched to say that, after all, I couldn't remember what she looked like, but when my grandfather and uncle sighed and cursed, I could see that she had been a rare beauty when she was young.

With the deep love for my father, with the dream of a family reunion, my mother gave birth to me, bringing me to this colorful and difficult world.

The dream Lin Qian gave me has already been shattered. So am I now walking into another dream that O'Jia Rui weaved?
