Chapter 817: Chapter 819 Public (11)
Qin Zhizha responded with an expression teeming with the eagerness of someone who’s about to watch something exciting unfold, “A woman, reeking of alcohol.”
The moment Qin Zhisu heard that, he immediately thought of Lu Weixi. Perhaps she really was drunk because they had broken up? He immediately asked anxiously, “What else?”
“Drenched in perfume too. It was so overpowering, like she was dousing herself in Chanel No. 5 to ward off mosquitoes, so pungent it could kill. As if she’s afraid no one would know what she does for a living, huh?” Qin Zhimei chimed in, her face filled with disdain as though it might just burst through the screen.
“What job?”

“Drinking so much in the middle of the night, and smothered in perfume, what job do you think?” Qin Zhimei curled her lip, “Isn’t it because Fang Rushuang and Uncle Fang are visiting us tomorrow? Qin Zhiyou is really something else! Truly something else!”
Only then did Zhisu’s worried expression begin to relax. That’s right, he reasoned. Even if Lu Weixi and Qin Zhiyou had long been in a messy relationship, she wouldn’t just go out and get drunk with Qin Zhiyou late at night, would she? She isn’t that kind of person, she really isn’t.
...
Zhisu might have calmed down, but Qin Zhizha and Qin Zhimei, who had been eagerly waiting all evening for their dose of gossip, were now not about to let the concerned party off the hook, “So did you and Bai Weixi really break up?”
Qin Zhisu was in the middle of changing shoes when that question hit him like a sucker punch. He faltered for a moment, automatically objecting, “Don’t talk nonsense!” But thinking of Lu Weixi’s ambiguous relationship with Qin Zhiyou, his heart ached dully again, “Maybe.”
One moment he says, “Don’t talk nonsense,” and the next, “Maybe.” So were they still together or not? Zhisu was silent for a while, eventually shaking his head, “It’s complicated. I need to sort things out, it’s not as simple as all that.”
“And what about you and Cai Yiren? Are you two dating? I heard she’s coming over tomorrow with Bai Changyou,” Zhizha pressed.
This time, Zhisu replied with determination, “No.”
He felt no romantic feelings for Cai Yiren. Although her emotional instability indeed made it difficult for her to handle shocks, he was clear on the distinction between sympathy and love. Even if he weren’t with Lu Weixi, he would find it hard to be with Cai Yiren.
“If not, then why is Bai Changyou coming over tomorrow with her?” Zhimei asked, a tad surprised. She too had felt that Bai Changyou was just a father trying to throw another daughter into the mix to tie down Zhisu the minute one failed. But Zhisu’s blunt rejection was rare, and they had all thought that Zhisu had just discarded one to pick up another, considering they were both from the Bai family.
Zhisu frowned, “In any case, it’s not like that, don’t spread rumors.”
Zhizha said indifferently, “I do think Cai Yiren is much better than that other one.” But he had just been venting, and since Zhisu didn’t react, he didn’t pursue the subject.
As Zhisu went upstairs, he saw that Zhiyou’s room door was tightly shut. He had intended to knock, but after some thought, he put down his phone and headed to his own room next door.
The moment he entered his room, he let himself fall into the bedsheets. Breaking up with a “bitch” who had been stepping out on him with two guys, he should have been angry, relieved, or perhaps even glad, but he felt none of that. He just felt desolate, and even his heart hurt a little.
He unlocked his phone to find her contact information had been unilaterally deleted, everything cut off neatly since the morning. It was as if he would no longer be involved in anything about her, whether it was her birth, aging, sickness, or death. Breaking up was the right thing to do, but he inexplicably felt very panicky.
