Chapter 331

Zhi Xia did not understand what was going on, but she could also see that Wang Li did not want to get entangled with the man.

She quickened her pace and walked over, facing Wang Li and asking, "Do you need help?"

Wang Li's face flashed panic for a moment, and she hurriedly said, "No need, Zhi Xia, I know him, you go in first, I can handle it myself."

Hearing that she knew him, Zhi Xia felt relieved. She nodded at the man and then walked through the school gate.

It took Wang Li a long time to come in.

Unlike her usual lively appearance, as soon as she came in today, she sat down in her seat, rested her arms on the table, and remained silent.

She didn't liven up until class started.

At lunchtime, Wang Li hesitantly asked her, "Aren't you curious about me?"

She realized that Zhi Xia was indeed different from her. She was not as curious as her, wanting to know everything.

If what happened today had happened to Zhi Xia, she was afraid she would not have been able to help asking.

At the same time, there was some disappointment in her heart.

After nearly a year and a half of getting along, she had truly regarded Zhi Xia as her friend, but Zhi Xia had always been indifferent, and it was mostly her who took the initiative in their interactions.

"Everyone has curiosity, and I'm no exception," Zhi Xia answered her, it's just that some curiosity can only hurt others.

Wang Li's smile was bitter. "Actually, I really hope someone would ask me about it. Zhi Xia, you don't understand. Many times, I feel so depressed, so painful, I really want to find someone to confide in, but my parents and brother don't want me to mention the past."

Zhi Xia patted her shoulder comfortingly, "Try to look at things more openly. There are no insurmountable obstacles in this world. Wang Li, don't repress yourself. Life in this world is short to begin with, and if you can't live as you wish, what's the point of coming to this world for a walk?" No matter what decision you make, think carefully about what you want before doing it. Is there really no better solution?"

In this life, Wang Li and An Zhiang were already two parallel lines that could never intersect again. As for her, Zhi Xia also hoped that she could live more freely, and not be easily swayed by other people's words, and in the end do something extreme.

"Actually, that person is my husband from the countryside, and we have a daughter." After a long, long time, Wang Li uttered these words, her tone slightly unsteady.

When she first went down to the countryside, she was only eighteen or nineteen years old. The life in the countryside was too hard, and the place she went to was dry and cold in winter, with endless farm work throughout the four seasons.

Like many educated youths who were sent down to the countryside, after persevering for a few years but seeing no hope of returning, she simply could not persist any longer, so she married a local man there.

She had thought that she would just live out the rest of her life like this, but when news of the restoration of the college entrance examination came, she believed that no one would not be moved.

With the support of her in-laws after getting married, her life was much better than before, but this did not mean that she could stop working, because everyone had to rely on food rations to eat.

Wang Li looked at herself in the mirror, at her rough cheeks and hands full of calluses and cracks, and made a final decision.

After saying all this, she cried and lay slumped on the table. "Zhi Xia, do you know, when I first decided to come back, I didn't think of abandoning them either. I thought that after I settled down in the city, I would find a way to bring them over, but...but my family disagreed with me being with him. Last summer, my mother had my brother lock me up in the room and not let me out. He doesn't have an urban household registration, he can't stay, and I don't want to either. I know I'm selfish, but I have no choice... I don't want to go back to face the soil with my back to the sky..."

Time would always make people forget all the good memories. When she first returned to the city, she thought of them father and daughter all day long, but after a year and a half, she realized that she could no longer remember her daughter's face clearly, and they had all gradually blurred in her memory.

But just then, he came looking for her again, and kept pestering her.

Wang Li didn't want to go back with him, and was even annoyed by his arrival, but her conscience would still condemn her, making her feel uneasy.

Perhaps from the perspective of the father and daughter, she was a bad woman who abandoned her husband and child, but who could understand her pain!

Zhi Xia understood that experiences like Wang Li's were not unique, but rather very common.

The educated youths who married in the countryside had to make a choice between family and returning to the city, and the hard life plus heavy farm work made most people unlikely to choose to stay.

One could not simply blame any one person for this, it was just the tragedy and suffering left by the era.

The only thing Zhi Xia could do was comfort her and quietly be a listening ear.

She didn't need her own advice. Wang Li's impatience in her eyes when struggling with the man that morning had already made the decision for her. Even if she forced herself to be with that man, they would not be happy.

In the afternoon, Wang Li regained her usual cheerful appearance. If it weren't for her crying so sadly at noon, who would have known that she was actually harboring so many things in her heart!

As soon as she walked out of the school gate in the afternoon, the man was waiting for her at the gate again.

Zhi Xia was still following behind her. Wang Li instinctively dodged, as there were many people leaving school at this time, and she was afraid the other party would pester her.

But obviously, her thoughts were somewhat unnecessary.

Seeing her dodge, the man stopped disappointedly and stood there silently watching her walk away.

Zhi Xia saw Wang Li's eyes brimming with tears already. She patted Wang Li comfortingly on the shoulder, "I'll go back first, my child is waiting for me at home."

"Zhi Xia, what would you do if you were me?" Wang Li suddenly asked her.

Zhi Xia thought for a moment, "But I'm not you."

If it were herself, after making the initial choice, she would not easily give up.

Just like her and Pei Jing, they didn't have much affection at first, and their first encounter was even worse. It was in the flow of time that they fell deeply for each other's tenderness.

Wang Li, on the other hand, had chosen the man when she was in need, and then abandoned him when she felt he had become a burden. And there was a child involved.

Perhaps she was also very tormented inside, but Zhi Xia could not in good conscience say that she was right, so she chose to remain silent.

After parting ways with Wang Li, she carried a large bag of fried dough sticks home.

A few days later, Zhi Xia was stopped by the man on her way home.

"If you want me to persuade Wang Li, I'm afraid I can't do it," Zhi Xia took the initiative.

The man seemed not to expect her to guess his purpose so directly. He opened his mouth but did not say anything. He simply stepped aside to make way.

Zhi Xia rode by calmly, then looked back at the man's figure.

The man was thin and tall, with dark skin, probably due to frequent sun exposure. He looked like an honest man, at least not pestering her after her blunt words.
