Chapter 486: Chapter 484 Don’t Lose Yourself in Love_1

Actually, Na Xiaoxiao wasn’t throwing a tantrum, she just wanted to be alone and have some quiet time. It was only after she left the Mu Group that she realized, in this place, apart from the Mu Family, she had nowhere else to go...

Unfamiliar city, unfamiliar people...

Gazing at the colorful and bustling crowd on the streets, she was so lost that she didn’t know where to go. She was like a child who had forgotten the way home, standing hesitantly at the street corner, aimlessly blending into the stream of people...

She wandered aimlessly on the road and, before she knew it, she arrived in front of a bus stop. There were many people by the bus stop’s sign: men and women, old and young, some in groups of three to five, some couples embracing each other, and also young mothers holding their adorable children...

When a bus came to a halt in front of everyone, she unconsciously followed the steps of the others and boarded the bus, taking out the only coin she had and dropping it in with a clink...

She silently walked to the corner seat at the back of the bus, rested her head against the back of the seat, and with her face slightly turned, her gaze aimlessly followed the scenery flashing by the window...

She didn’t know where the final stop of the bus was, she only knew that she had nowhere to go at the moment. In such a vast C City, there was no destination for her, and the only place she longed for had been made so painful by his words that she didn’t have the courage to step inside...

She didn’t know how much time had passed when the bus suddenly stopped, and the driver’s loud voice reminded everyone, "Final stop!"

Startled, she looked up and saw that she didn’t know when the previously crowded bus had been left with just her...

She stood up abruptly and, looking out at the unfamiliar scenery, felt her heart skip a beat, hesitantly asking the driver, "Excuse me, sir... May I ask where is this..."

The driver saw her clueless expression and couldn’t help but laugh, "Miss... This is West Street in West Suburb, did you by any chance miss your stop?"

Na Xiaoxiao started to feel embarrassed, "It seems so..." She had never been to this place, and the Great Western Suburb appeared to be very far from the Mu Group, and even farther from the Mu Family home...

One was in East Suburb and the other in West Suburb...

Na Xiaoxiao suddenly felt a pang of regret in her heart. Why hadn’t she checked the route when she boarded the bus?

Seeing her expression, the driver offered warmly, "It’s okay, you don’t have to get off. This bus is on a loop route and you can ride it back..."

Na Xiaoxiao looked at the driver with instant gratitude. If she were to get off now, she would truly be stranded here.

She hadn’t brought her phone nor her wallet, and had nothing with her...

The trip was quite long and, added to the heavy flow of passengers on the bus, it took over an hour to sway back to the city center...

As the bus drove into the busy area, Na Xiaoxiao purposely gathered her thoughts and listened intently to the broadcast of the bus stops...

There was a radio broadcast on the bus, and once Na Xiaoxiao tuned back into it, the voice of a female announcer suddenly broke into her ears--

"The world of love is often elusive and indescribable, but I’d like to remind everyone not to lose themselves in love..."

Another male announcer followed, "Yes, true love involves mutual blending, not unrequited love. True love isn’t necessarily the perfect match in the eyes of others, but the soulful connection between two people who love each other..."

"So we have to be the most authentic versions of ourselves, to make your him/her love you even more..."

"Wishing for more boyfriends and girlfriends to hold on tight to their happiness..."

"Thank you all for listening, and this ends today’s Listening to Love..."

Na Xiaoxiao’s train of thought suddenly paused, her eyes fixating on the blurry scenery passing by the window, her mind ruminating...

Was she wrong?

Had she been wrong from the very beginning?

When Xiaoxiao absentmindedly stepped off the bus, she realized that it had grown dark and a fine drizzle had already wet the ground...

Standing beside the bus stop sign, she looked around at the somewhat familiar scenery and couldn’t help but smile bitterly to herself; she had missed her stop again...

The place she was now in just happened to be the road she would normally take to get back to the Mu Family’s house, not exactly close, but not too far either...

If she had her wallet on her, she could have just taken a cab back, but she was penniless and had left her phone behind, truly like a little beggar stranded on the streets...

She smiled wryly and, seeing that the rain was coming down harder, had no choice but to run forward in a hurry...

She ran for about the distance of one bus stop, the rain pouring down like it was being dumped from buckets...

Xiaoxiao helplessly wiped the rainwater off her face...

She had already been disheveled enough for one day, and now even the heavens seemed to be joining in to trouble her... truly wanting to cry but without tears...

After another intersection, there was a small park by the roadside, which had a pavilion for sheltering from the rain...

From Xiaoxiao’s perspective, there appeared to be a man and a woman taking shelter from the rain inside; they seemed to be a couple...

She sighed helplessly; it wasn’t her intention to be a third wheel, but the rain was just too heavy...

Her entire body was soaked to the bone...

She walked into the pavilion and sat on the long bench, gently wringing the water out of her clothes...

Then she also wrung out her tied-back hair...

A gust of autumn wind blew over, and she couldn’t help but sneeze violently!

So cold...

She huddled her shoulders, shivering with cold, while the two people across from her, huddled together watching the rain, seemed completely unaffected by the chill.

"Xiaoxian... would it be okay with you if I take you to meet my parents tomorrow?" the young man gently asked the woman in his arms.

"But... what if they don’t like me? After all, I’m from out of town..." the girl said hesitantly.

"Don’t worry, with me there, they’re sure to like you..."

A tinge of sourness rose in Xiaoxiao’s heart...

She actually found herself envying that strange girl, to be with a man she loved and who loved her in return; what a blissful thing that must be...

If only Mu Zisu loved her... then...

At the thought, she couldn’t help but smile bitterly within herself. If Mu Zisu also loved her, surely she would be as happy as this girl...

The young man tenderly escorted the girl away since someone had come to pick them up by car...

In the moment they left the pavilion, she thought about asking to use their phone, but the words died on her lips as she swallowed them back down, thinking of the way she had stormed out on Mu Zisu, he must be furious by now...

She sighed and leaned back against the pavilion’s railing, deciding it was better to wait for the rain to stop...

The rain pattered down on the elegant and tranquil pavilion, forming beautiful streams of water at the edge of each of its four sides. The raindrops fell to the ground following the pavilion’s eaves, creating a delightful pitter-patter...
