Yun Jianyue answered honestly, “My kneecap was bruised, and my elbows are also bruised.”
It didn’t seem to be a huge problem, but Gu Zhishen wasn’t completely relieved. In his impression, Yun Jianyue was a child who was unable to take care of herself.
“After taking a shower, tend to the wound. If you don’t feel comfortable after waking up tomorrow, contact Cheng Yufei. Ask him to bring you over to the hospital.” He had to stay in Melbourne for another week and was unable to rush back.
Yun Jianyue rubbed her wrists and tried to soothe the pain. Her voice also relaxed as she said, “I’m fine. Just now when I was protecting my phone, when I knocked into it, it hurt a little. It’ll be fine after I rub it for a while. From when I was young till now, I don’t know how many times I’ve fallen down already. It’s already turned into a habit for me!”
Falling down was her habit?
Gu Zhishen had a slight frown on his face. How careless was this girl? But he caught an important point in her words. “When you were falling down, why did you try to protect your phone? Even when primary school students fall down, they all know how to protect themselves.”
“Isn’t it all because I was on the phone? If I ruined the phone, and the call was suddenly cut off, it would be so impolite; furthemore, I would let the person I’m on the line with feel worried,” Yun Jianyue replied boldly, and she felt that she didn’t do anything wrong!
Upon hearing what she said, Gu Zhishen didn’t know how to reply to her; instead, although she sounded silly, this kind of thinking was very caring for others and made the person on the line with her feel warm inside their heart.
“You’re showering so late at night?” Gu Zhishen asked as he thought of another problem.
“Late? What time is it right now?”
Gu Zhishen was silent for a few seconds, and he looked at his watch that still reflected the time back home. “00:30.”
Yun Jianyue was embarrassed to say that she had slept until now. She felt that she was just like a pig and questioned him instead. “You also know that it’s so late now, and you’re still calling me.”
“Is there a day where you sleep before one in the morning?” Gu Zhishen retorted.
Yun Jianyue was taken aback. How did he know she slept very late every night? She didn’t have the chance to ask him. His deep and hoarse voice rang out in her ears, “You should rest earlier. Good night.”
He didn’t give her the chance to speak and hung up directly.
Yun Jianyue stared at her phone, and it was as if she was about to stare a hole through it, as she said, “Doesn’t he know that hanging up on someone directly is very rude? No wonder Older Sister wants to break off the marriage and not marry you! Your temper is too bad!”
As she spoke, she climbed up from the floor and placed her phone on the sink before she remembered that of the things that she should’ve asked Gu Zhishen, she didn’t ask a single one at all.
She was frustrated as she grabbed her hair. “Yun Jianyue, you are so dumb!”
And at this moment, Gu Zhishen, who was in Melbourne, stared at the number on his phone and didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
It seemed that he married a sensible but very unclear young wife.
Gu Zhishen was 32 years old this year, and Yun Jianyue was only 24 years old; he was 8 years older than her.
Yun Jianyue was his young wife!
Thinking about it this way, Gu Zhishen changed the contact name for Yun Jianyue in his phone to Little Blur Thing!
Gu Zhishen didn’t know that his young wife, who was far away back in the country, didn’t sleep for much the entire night. And even if she managed to fall asleep, she had endless nightmares.
Yun Jianyue dreamed of her parents finding out about her marriage to Gu Zhishen, and no matter how hard she begged them, they chased her out of the Yun family extremely angrily. Or she dreamed of Yun Siwan coming back in a fit of anger to ask her angrily, Why did she have to snatch her husband away? What followed closely after that was to strangle her neck, and when she was about to suffocate, she saw Gu Zhishen standing some distance away, and she asked him for help.
But Gu Zhishen only stood there coldly as he looked on and didn’t intervene.
Yun Jianyue was scared awake in the end, and when she woke up, the pajamas she was wearing were all soaked with cold sweat.
The next morning, Yun Jianyue was asked to go back to the office because there was a jewelry exhibit the company took up suddenly, and they were in charge of maintaining security for the jewelry.
Life was just like that; it never stopped because one person was going through a breakup or met with sad matters. The earth also continued spinning, and it was as if it didn’t care about the sad matters that people were going through.
She attended a long meeting till the afternoon, she called for delivery for lunch, she had to go down to the jewelry exhibit to check the situation there in the afternoon, she had to communicate with the person in charge of the exhibition, and she needed to bring over the routes and pictures.
The person in charge said he would ask someone to send it down to the company tomorrow.
Yun Jianyue informed the head of the department on the phone. Over the phone, he didn’t say too much, and he told her if she didn’t have any other matters, she could go back already and didn’t have to come down to the company specially.
When Yun Jianyue headed out that day, she didn’t drive. She saw a bus stop that was close by and planned to take the bus home. She had yet to walk over to the bus stop when her phone rang again.
This time, her best friend, Zhu Jingyi, called her. Yun Jianyue left her with a simple sentence, “Wait for me; I’ll be right there.”
After she hung up, she stretched her hand out to flag an empty bus that almost dashed off.
Yun Jianyue had known Zhu Jingyi since they were in primary school, and after that, in secondary school, high school, and university. They were in all the same schools together and in the same class. In university, Zhu Jingyi didn’t go into the same major as Yun Jianyue, but thanks to Yun Jianyue, not only were they schoolmates in university, they were also roommates. They had a good relationship with one another, and even the male classmates who were unable to court Yun Jianyue suspected there was something amiss going on between Yun Jianyue and Zhu Jingyi.
The place that Zhu Jianyue asked her out to eat was a better restaurant close to university. When Yun Jianyue arrived, Zhu Jingyi had already ordered the dishes.
Yun Jianyue looked at the few pathetic dishes on the table. She couldn’t control herself and rolled her eyes as she said, “You asked me to come over and are making me eat so little?”
Zhu Jingyi was calm, and she used the chopsticks in her hands to point toward a spot as she said, “Look at that side. Are you able to swallow your food?”
Yun Jianyue looked towards the side and was in a daze.
No wonder Jingyi called her down specially to ask her to come over to eat. It turned out that she saw Su Xu eating with another girl.
She lowered her gaze She hid the darkness in her gaze. Was this the reason he wanted to break up with her?
“Don’t you plan to let me know what’s happening?” Zhu Jingyi noticed that she was behaving just like a small bullied woman and was extremely angered, even if she used her smooth and bouncy toes to think, she knew that Su Xu cheated.
But it was probably only Yun Jianyue who didn’t know anything, being all silly!
Yun Jianyue raised her head to look at her. She gained her senses back as she said, “What is there to say? Isn’t it just about breaking up?”
Breaking up?
Zhu Jingyu had a frown on her face as she asked: “When did this happen?”
“The day before yesterday.”
“He dumped you?”
Yun Jianyue nodded.
“Fuck!” Zhu Jingyi cursed and immediately rolled her sleeves up, wanting to look for Su Xu to settle this matter.
Yun Jianyue quickly pressed her back down in her seat to prevent Su Xu from noticing them as she said, “It’s fine. It’s just a normal breakup! If you go and make a scene right now, it would seem like I’m clinging to him instead, and they would see me as a bigger joke!”
“We’re letting this scum couple off just like that?” Zhu Jingyi was extremely furious. Her life principle was that if she met disgusting people, she could kill them when she saw them. If there were two sets of them, she would kill all of them!
Yun Jianyue stretched her hand out to get the menu. She didn’t bat her eyelids at all as she replied, “Haven’t you heard this sentence before? Evil people would be punished by the heavens!”
No matter how angry Zhu Jingyi was, she would also take Yun Jianyue’s feelings into account, furthemore…
