A few days later, I attended a gathering with my college classmates. To my surprise, Wang Zhan was also there. He was sitting alone in a corner, drinking, and when he saw me, he just glanced up briefly.
Everyone hadn't seen me for a long time and started asking what I had been up to lately. "I have a boyfriend now," I said with a smile. "Really?" "Wow, that was fast!" "Do you have a picture? Let us see!" They teased me.
"He's really handsome, very gentle, and treats me exceptionally well," I praised him enthusiastically. Wang Zhan lowered his head, making it hard to see his expression. "Where does he work?" "At a hospital." "Wow, a doctor!" "No, he's..." "A nurse?" "Not that either." "Then what is he?" "He's..." "What is it?" "What is it?" They continued to tease.
Just as I was about to answer, a friend suddenly pushed me. "Hurry up, Wang Zhan looks like he's about to suffocate." I was pushed next to Wang Zhan. He looked at me for a moment but didn't say anything. I awkwardly smiled and said, "Long time no see." "Long time no see," he replied in a hoarse voice.
After the gathering ended, I went to the restroom. Just as I came out, someone grabbed my hand. Turning around, I saw it was Wang Zhan. "You're drunk; you should go back," he said. "How much longer are you going to be angry?" he asked me. "I'm not angry."
"When are you moving back?"
I didn't say anything and pulled my hand away from him.
Xu Zheng arrived quickly.
He saw Wang Zhan and his expression tensed,
but he didn't show much, calmly taking me away.
"I didn't know he was here."
I explained in the car.
"Mm."
He nodded.
"I really didn't know."
"I know."
He smiled lightly.
By the time we got home, it was already late.
I had just finished showering when Xu Zheng caught me.
"What's wrong?"
"I missed you."
He leaned down and kissed me passionately.
I was a bit dazed.
Although we were living together,
we had always kept things respectful.
At most, we would hold hands.
This was the first time he was so affectionate.
"Xu Zheng..."
"Mm?"
"What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing much."
He held me close.
"I just missed you."
Late at night, as I lay in bed, I suddenly received a call from Wang Zhan.
"Jiang Wan."
"You finally answered my call."
"What is it?"
"I regret it."
"I really regret it."
"Why didn't you wait for me?"
"Why did you fall for someone else so quickly?"
"Do you really like me?"
He didn't say anything.
"I’m going to hang up."
"Jiang Wan."
"Mm?"
"You haven't answered me."
"What?"
"Do you still like me?"
"I'm already someone else's girlfriend."
"You should get some rest."
I hung up the phone.
Wang Zhan told me the cause of the accident, Ma Jia.
"He heard you were going on a blind date that day and rushed out, so..."
"I know."
"He really cares about you."
"I know."
What’s the point of saying these things now that it has already happened?
The relationship between Jiang Wan and Wang Zhan seemed to always linger on a delicate edge,
even though she had tried her best to draw a line, moving away from her old place,
and starting a new life with Xu Zheng.
However, when Wang Zhan appeared in her sight again,
that complex emotion was reignited.
In a chance encounter,
there was an unprecedented vulnerability in Wang Zhan's gaze,
which stirred ripples in Jiang Wan's heart.
That youthful memory still made it hard for her to let go.
