On their way, Huo Mian briefly summarized Zhixin and Huang Yueâs situation to Qin Chu.
Therefore, the latter had a general idea of what was going on.
Huo Mian, still suffering from a fever, walked up to Zhixinâs bedroom.
âZhixin, open the door. Itâs me.â
She knocked a couple of times, but Zhixin refused to come to the doorâŠ
âZhixin⊠open the door and letâs talk outside.â
âSis, Iâm asleep, just leave me alone.â
Huo Mian looked helplessly at Qin ChuâŠ
He walked up. âLet me try.â
âZhixin, itâs me. Open the door, I need to talk to you about interning at GK.â
Sure enough, upon hearing Qin Chuâs voice, Jing Zhixin slowly opened his door.
âOh good, you finally came out.â
Seeing that Zhixin was fine, Huo Mian let out a sigh of reliefâŠ
âSis⊠she broke up with me.â Zhixin looked at Huo Mian, tears glistening in his doe eyes.
He seemed to be in a lot of pain; he wanted to cry but felt like it was embarrassing, so he tried hard to keep his tears from falling downâŠ
Huo Mian couldnât help but hug Zhixin tightly.
Zhixin hugged Huo Mian backâŠ
Mr. Qin, who was standing by their side, felt bad as wellâŠ
Thank god this was Zhixin, or else he would have been really jealousâŠ
If it were anyone else, Qin Chu wouldâve thrown that man off to the side in a matter of seconds.
âZhixin, your sister is still sick, and this is not a good place to talk. Letâs go downstairs.â
Qin Chu consoled him.
Jing Zhixin let go of Huo Mian and quietly followed after themâŠ
Huo Mian didnât want their mother to hear, so she said, âMom, Zhixin is fine. He didnât do so well on an exam, but heâs all better now. Weâre both hungry, can you make us some pumpkin congee? Take your time.â
âOh, it was because of a test⊠He scared me half to death, gosh. Okay, wait here, Iâll go make you guys some.â
Upon hearing what Huo Mian said, Yang Meirong was no longer suspicious.
She walked into the kitchen to make them food.
Qin Chu, Huo Mian, and Zhixin sat on the couch in the living room.
Zhixin took out his phone and handed it to Huo MianâŠ
âShe sent me a WeChat message, see for yourself. I donât want to read it out loud to you.â
Huo Mian took the phone in her hands and saw what Huang Yue wrote, âZhixin, Iâm sorry. I thought about it a lot, but Iâve decided to tell you that Iâve fallen in love with someone else. We met at a class reunion, and I canât date you anymore. I didnât want to hurt you, so I didnât know what to tell you. However, itâs not good for either of us to drag this on. Zhixin, I want to break up. Thank you for taking care of me, and I hope that youâll meet a better girl in the future.â
It was a very cliché and lame breakup text, exactly what an inexperienced kid would say.
âSo? You canât take it?â Huo Mian looked at her brother, a little angry at how weak he was.
âNo, I canât stand the fact that she fell for someone else. Sheâs not like that.â
âPeople are unpredictable⊠you will never know what is going on inside another personâs head. Plus⊠love canât be forced.â
âI know.â Zhixin nodded.
âIf you know, then why are you in such a slump?â
âI just got out of a relationship⊠No one is that brave, and my heart is in pain⊠really, Sis, it hurts hereâŠâ Zhixin said as he pointed at his heartâŠ
Huo Mian frowned. âDonât worry, the pain will pass. Zhixin, youâre a man, and you have to learn to be brave. Love isnât the only factor in your life; you have your friends, your teachers, your classmates, and your career⊠Your brother-in-law already decided for you to intern at GK after Chinese New Year, since you donât have a lot of courses during the spring semester anyways.â
âReally? I can go to GK after Chinese New Year?â
Zhixin was pleasantly surprisedâŠ
It was almost December, and Chinese New year was the end of February; March would come in the blink of an eye.
âYeah, as long as you pull yourself together and do your job right, everything will go as planned.â
âIâll listen to everything you say, Brother-in-Law⊠youâre my idol, you made it onto the Asia Forbes list at the age of 27⊠and youâre on the cover on so many financial magazines, youâre so cool!â
Zhixin became more and more excited as if his previous sorrows had all disappearedâŠ
Huo Mian glanced gratefully at Qin Chu⊠they didnât have to speak to know what the other person was thinking aboutâŠ
âBrother-in-Law, if possible, can I intern at GK Film and Television?â Zhixin suddenly asked.
Both Huo Mian and Qin Chu froze for a brief second upon hearing his question.
