"So it's really not worth it, if your misunderstanding with him continues because of this incident . You're really important to him . When he was drunk at that time… that time when I met him outside the bar . He was drunk but he had called your name while looking at me . "
Fang Jiayin kept explaining in such an earnest tone, that it sounded very moving and enticing . But Xuxu simply didn't want to listen to her anymore . She cut across once more . "Jiayin, thank you for being so concerned about us but, I'm really fine . "
Her patience was evidently running out .
Fang Jiayin bowed her head and looked reproachful . "I shouldn't have come back, right?"
Xuxu couldn't help herself to smile . "That's too serious . Everything is destined and love can't be forced . I admit that I'm a logical person especially in the matters that concern love . "
If there was a third party right now, she would have thought that Fang Jiayin was putting on a show to garner pity and sympathy from others .
She would have labeled her as a white lotus who seemed pure on the surface but was twisted and dark underwater .

But they were the only people around and she can't fathom what was on her mind .
She paused before continuing, "True love can weather any storms, and it will definitely not be swayed or affected by a third party . So this has nothing to do with your return . "
She spoke sharply and firmly and her message was concise .
She gave no chance for Fang Jiayin to explain further .
Fang Jiayin forced a smile and said, "Xuxu, you are always so wise . I've always admired how composed and rational you are . "
Xuxu curled her lips . "Actually, your courage three years ago was more admirable . "
Admiring her was one matter, regretting her decision was entirely another matter .

So, she admired her courage but didn't regret her own decision .
She turned her head and strode towards the elevator without any word .
As she left, Zhou Tong bounced out from the studio and smiled brightly at Fang Jiayin . "You're here! I was about to call you . "
Fang Jiayin nodded at her briefly before catching a glimpse of Xuxu as she vanished out of sight . She stared afar with a mixture of deep and complex emotions .
Then she spun her head around and said to Zhou Tong, "Let's go . "
Zhou Tong put her arm around hers and proclaimed happily, "Earlier on I managed to ask Yan Rusheng out for lunch . He will meet us directly at the restaurant . "
Fang Jiayin furrowed her eyebrows and chided her . "Why did you call him?"
"Of course it's to eat!" Zhou Tong quipped as though it was the only expected answer . "What else can we do at a restaurant beside eating?"
Fang Jiayin knocked the back of Zhou Tong's head . "You're really looking for trouble . "
In reality, excitement and joy were surging in her eyes .
Zhou Tong shook her head mischievously . "I do admit that I love to seek trouble . It's a treat for both my eyes and stomach to have a handsome guy eating with us . "
"You're really—"
The two girls were walking only a few steps behind her . Xuxu immediately stepped into the elevator when it arrived . The doors closed before Fang Jiayin and Zhou Tong appeared .
Movie and lunch .
Sounds like they were about to relieve their sweet memories from their university days .
Xuxu ate lunch outside and she drove at a leisurely speed on the way back to the office .
She switched on the radio and it was playing some trendy songs .
How she wished she could drive aimlessly without facing her troubles .
But, this was reality and it was just wishful thinking on her part .
She found a parking lot in the car park . She unfastened her seatbelt and got off the car .
The sun was still shining brightly with blasts of frosty winds .
