Crying in Sorrow!

472: Chapter 472: Can’t Be Persuaded!

Crying in Sorrow!

The engine roared like the growl of a wild beast.

The reckless Mercedes SUV seemed ready to burst off the road and fly into the river.

Tang Xin clutched the armrest tightly, closed her eyes, and screamed in terror!

However…

With a screech!

The SUV suddenly braked hard and pulled over, leaving Tang Xin with a frightened soul.

Beep beep…

Tang Xin turned her head and saw Tang Xiao slumped over the steering wheel.

The car horn sounded incessantly.

Tang Xin quickly reached out to turn on the hazard lights and put the vehicle in park.

Then…

She sat beside her, shocked and embarrassingly at a loss.

Tang Xiao cried!

She cried in a way that was nothing like her usual self.

Where was the domineering arrogance?

Where was the stubborn solitude?

At that moment, the one sprawled over the steering wheel wept with tears streaming down her face.

For as long as Tang Xin could remember, she had never seen the ‘big sister’ Tang Xiao cry so sorrowfully.

Tang Xin really wanted to offer some words of comfort, but…

How to comfort her?

She had advised Tang Xiao before, to not care about Wu Jie’s past, to focus on the present, to value the future.

But what was the result?

Wu Jie sure ‘excelled’ himself!

Not sleeping at home in the middle of the night, first to swing by the company, then to have fun at the nightclub.

How…

How to comfort her?

Tang Xin felt completely baffled.

It wasn’t hard to imagine how tragically sad Tang Xiao must be feeling at that moment.

What to do?

At that moment, Tang Xin felt that no matter how many truths she knew, it was all useless.

After all, seeing is believing, while hearing is often deceptive!

So…

Tang Xin felt utterly helpless and could only maintain her silence, listening quietly.

She did not know how much time had passed.

It might have been one minute, or perhaps ten minutes…

Tang Xiao lifted her head, gazed sternly straight ahead without looking sideways.

Without a word, she picked up a tissue and wiped away her tears.

“Sis, are…

are you okay?”

Tang Xin asked tentatively, full of concern.

Tang Xiao didn’t make a sound, turned off the hazard lights, and started the car.

Here we go again!

Tang Xin hurriedly gripped the armrest tightly, leaning back slightly, bracing for another round of wild driving.

However…

Tang Xiao did not do it this time.

She gently accelerated, the Mercedes picked up speed slowly and calmly, extremely quiet.

The atmosphere inside the car was especially awkward.

Tang Xin’s face was burning hot.

Wu Jie coming to the nightclub in the dead of night was like a resounding slap in Tang Xin’s face.

She had said before not to care about a man’s past, to look at the present and the future…

So, what did she see?

If they hadn’t chased after him tonight, they would never have known Wu Jie would come to the nightclub to have fun.

If it were in the past, that would have been no big deal.

But the most fearful thing was…

Wu Jie was persistently pursuing Tang Xiao while secretly living it up.

Moreover, just as Tang Xiao had developed real feelings and when there was a trend of their fake relationship turning real, during the crucial period of planning to marry, he was out enjoying himself at nightclubs.

In this case!

What could Tang Xin say?

Seeing is believing, and hearing can be deceptive!

Tang Xiao had seen it with her own eyes.

What was left to deny?

After hesitating for a long time, Tang Xin advised:

“Actually…

Sis!

Not all nightclubs are necessarily places of chaos and disorder!”

“Some people just sing, drink, and chat.

It’s not true that every man likes to mess around with women of ill-repute.”

“What if he had business entertainment or a friends’ gathering?

You mustn’t think too much!”

“Whether they’re couples or spouses, the last thing they need is to suspect each other without trust!”

“You have to believe in Jie’s character.

Although he’s a bit of a rascal at times, he’s not fundamentally a bad person!”

“If he came here in the middle of the night, there must be a legitimate reason!”

“If he were truly a playboy, his background wouldn’t be so clean, and he would probably have a lot of romantic histories!”

“And as for the likes of Chu Yunxuan and Bai Fengling, such sexy and excellent beauties, he probably would have flirted with them long ago, so why bother with a fake marriage and a hard pursuit of you!”

…

Tang Xin meant well with her advice, but Tang Xiao remained silent, ignoring it.

After much persuasion and talking herself hoarse, Tang Xiao still had not uttered a word.

The car continued at a steady speed until it reached the gate of Tianyuan University.

As soon as they stopped, Tang Xin said:

“Look, Sis, I know I messed things up tonight by stirring the pot, but…

but you can’t just let me sleep on the streets, right?”

“At this hour, the dormitory is already closed.

If I go back and ask the dorm manager to open the door, I’ll definitely get an earful!”

“Take me back to your place, please!

I must keep an eye on you tonight; I’m too worried about your temper!”

Tang Xiao did not utter a sound, did not speak.

Her expression was as cold as ice that would not melt for a thousand years.

She accelerated and drove the Mercedes back to the apartment.

During the entire trip, Tang Xin didn’t try to persuade anymore, nor did she dare to contact Wu Jie immediately.

At such a critical moment, she couldn’t bring up his name at all because it was too easy for things to go wrong.

Once home.

Tang Xiao didn’t utter a word; she took off her shoes, lay on the bed, curled up tightly, and closed her eyes to sleep.

Tang Xin stood by, knowing she definitely hadn’t fallen asleep.

Her mood was irritable, even filled with anger and frustration.

Under such heartache, how could she possibly be sleeping?

Tang Xin gently closed the door and tiptoed to the bathroom.

Once the door was locked, Tang Xin didn’t hesitate and immediately called Wu Jie.

However…

Wu Jie, who was in the midst of neon lights and lively dances at the nightclub, was unlikely to notice his phone buzzing.

But the situation was too serious.

Tang Xin had no choice but to hurriedly send Wu Jie a message.

After thinking about it, she didn’t dare to use data or voice messages.

In case Wu Jie hadn’t turned on his data or connected to WiFi, and didn’t receive the message in time…

In case Tang Xiao heard it, then she would probably be in for a scolding…

Therefore, Tang Xin sat on the toilet, fingers flying swiftly, and sent a long text message.

“Jie, first of all, I need to say I’m sorry.

I shouldn’t have been petulant and caused trouble tonight, messing up your relationship.

I deeply regret this and might have been just crazy with jealousy for a moment, but I promise it won’t happen again.”

“Second, I’ve always trusted your character.

No matter how indulgent your lifestyle, I don’t care, but Xiao is different.

She’s naive and pure-hearted in love, like a blank sheet of paper that can’t be stained.”

“Lastly, we followed you tonight, and Xiao saw you enter the nightclub.

She’s heartbroken; she must think you’ve betrayed her and hurt her feelings.

Regardless of whether you’ve been unfaithful or not, if you want to save this relationship, you should come back and find a way to make amends as soon as possible!”

Whoosh!

After sending the message, Tang Xin paused for a moment and then deleted the communication logs as well.

Then, she quickly washed up, took a bath, and returned to bed.

Seeing Tang Xiao with her eyes closed, pretending to sleep, and the visible tear stains…

Tang Xin truly felt full of regret.

If it weren´t for her meddling tonight, would any of this have happened?

Since Tang Xiao had truly fallen for him, their wedding was logically ‘rightfully due.’

What a happy and beautiful thing that would be.

But the result…

With her interference, a joyful occasion turned tragic.

Still, Tang Xin had some doubts in her mind.

Wu Jie was never short of beautiful women around him.

The classically elegant Lin Yuan, the gentle and charming Bai Fengling, the seductive Chu Yunxuan…

Plus the lively and unrestrained herself, and the ice-skinned, jade-like, cold beauty Tang Xiao…

Why would he be interested in those tacky women at the nightclub?

Wouldn’t just any random flirtation be far better than those worldly women?

Thinking about it, Tang Xiao felt it was very likely just a misunderstanding.

But the key issue was…

She didn’t know what Wu Jie was doing there.

If he didn’t have a particularly legitimate reason, how could she have the courage to persuade Tang Xiao?

Everything had to wait for Wu Jie to see the message and come back to explain himself.

In a daze, Tang Xin fell asleep.

Because she was preoccupied with her worries, it wasn’t a deep sleep.

Suddenly feeling movement beside her, Tang Xin opened her eyes and found Tang Xiao getting out of bed to leave.

“Sis, where are you going?”

“I’m hungry!”

Tang Xiao casually replied and left the room.

Hungry?

Tang Xin rubbed her bleary eyes, then suddenly had a realization.

That won’t do!

Letting her make a midnight snack by herself—with her right hand already injured—what if she got distracted and cut her finger, or worse, took a knife to her neck in a moment of despair?

After all, it was her first love; she had no experience in adjusting her mood or stepping out of the shadows.

The stronger one appears in daily life, the crazier they might be in the face of heartbreak.

“Wait a minute!”

Tang Xin hurriedly got out of bed, not even bothering with her slippers, and chased after her.

“I’ll make midnight snacks for you, you just rest!”

Tang Xin rushed ahead into the kitchen and closed the door with a bang.

Tang Xiao sat down expressionlessly in the dining room, pulling over a chair.

Her stomach growled with hunger, and she felt a bit dizzy.

Tang Xin was really busy in the kitchen.

She quickly prepared a big bowl of fragrant tomato and egg noodles.

“Noodles are ready!”

Carefully bringing the noodles to the table, Tang Xin handed over chopsticks, and with a smile, she cautioned,

“Careful, it’s hot!

Eat slowly!”

Tang Xiao silently took the chopsticks, her eyes seemingly conjuring illusions.

One moment it was Tang Xin, another it was Wu Jie.

After a vigorous shake of her head, she finally saw clearly that it was Tang Xin.

Biting her lip, Tang Xiao lowered her head and quietly ate her noodles.

But…

The familiar taste, the familiar time and place…

Everything seemed so familiar, once so warm, filled with so many moving memories.

While eating, Tang Xiao couldn’t help herself; her tears gushed forth like a fountain.

Tang Xin stood opposite, completely baffled.

It was just a bowl of noodles; was it worth such a reaction?

Just as she was about to offer some reassurance, advising her not to be so heartbroken, especially during her period…

Buzz!

Buzz!

The phone she had kept close to her body received a message.

Tang Xin quickly took it out and was surprised to see that Wu Jie had replied with just one name…
