Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!-Chapter 335 One Hundred and Eighty - : The Counselor is Heartbroken_2
The more he thought about it, the more You Changjin felt that he had made a mistake, and he kept sending messages to Jiang Xinyi to apologize.
The agony of the breakup made You Changjin lose all interest in going to school to work, so he took three days off and lay in bed at home all day. He went from getting no replies to his messages to Jiang Xinyi, to eventually not being able to stop himself from saying, "Xinyi, maybe you're right, my approach was still somewhat immature. You are an outstanding girl."
In my heart, no other girl is more outstanding than you.
Recently, I watched a movie with my students, called "The Great Gatsby."
There was one scene that left a deep impression on me.
It was Gatsby standing at the edge of the bridge on Long Island, with a faint green light slowly rising on the opposite shore of the island.
Everyone was discussing what was so great about Gatsby.
But to me, his greatest attribute was that he could love Daisy consistently.
"In my view, Xinyi, you are my Daisy. Even if we are not together anymore, I will always protect you."
"I know I'm not worthy of you, and I'm very grateful that you gave me a chance. Even now, when I think back on every little moment spent with you, I can't help but smile."
After so many years, if we could meet again,
How would I face you?
With tears?
With silence?"
The love of adults is ultimately not as heart-wrenching as that of the young, and You Changjin was clear in his heart that the more he wallowed, the less respect he would have from Jiang Xinyi.
And if he pulled himself together, he might have a chance with Jiang Xinyi.
Didn't Jiang Xinyi say it herself?
We are still friends. Explore stories on novelbuddy
So, wasn't that sentence also giving him a chance?
Thus, You Changjin pulled himself together, hoping to reconcile with Jiang Xinyi. Logically, he had plenty of chances to bump into Zhou Yuwen.
Even a phone call could directly summon Zhou Yuwen to his office.
However, You Changjin insisted on going to the courier station to find Zhou Yuwen.
And while looking for Zhou Yuwen, he glanced around restlessly and finally couldn't help asking, "Hey, Yuwen, where's Xinyi?"
You Changjin wanted to ask, "Where's your mother-in-law?"
But he found those words difficult to utter and, in the end, could only ask about Xinyi.
Zhou Yuwen found this very strange, "What do you mean, where did the mother-in-law go? Don't you know, teacher?"
"Er, as you know, I've been busy with Chang Hao's matter for a while now, and I haven't been in touch much with Xinyi," You Changjin said awkwardly.
Zhou Yuwen replied, "But that doesn't make sense, teacher. Jiang Xinyi has gone to Mongolia. Didn't you know?"
"What? She went to Mongolia!?" You Changjin was stunned.
Zhou Yuwen was even more surprised. "Teacher, you don't even look at your girlfriend's social media updates?"
You Changjin's face grew even colder, and he hurriedly asked Zhou Yuwen to show him Jiang Xinyi's social media updates.
Zhou Yuwen was puzzled.
Because Zhou Yuwen was around, Liu Shuo and a few others would come over to hang out.
The courier station was thriving under Zhou Yuwen's watch, the small vegetable garden was full of vitality, and the cucumbers that Jiang Xinyi had stealthily picked before had grown back in abundance.
Liu Shuo would come over to drink tea and brag with Zhou Yuwen when he had nothing to do.
For instance, in the University City with seventeen colleges, sixteen now bore the last name Zhou.
There was only one that remained defiant.
Liu Shuo had visited many times and nearly got into a fight over it.

In truth, Zhou Yuwen had a rather laissez-faire approach to these matters, having given Liu Shuo three hundred thousand to buy a van and expand the courier business.
But Liu Shuo, perhaps thinking he was playing a Three Kingdoms strategy game, was on a mission to expand territory, dead set on unifying the courier sector of the University City.
Not to mention, over at Jiangning University City, Liu Shuo had already taken down two courier stations as the beachhead for expanding into the area. In Pukou, he successfully acquired another courier station.
Here in Xianlin, Liu Shuo swiftly acquired six courier stations with lightning speed, leaving only one stubborn holdout.
Liu Shuo was not all about brute force, he did offer money.
The going rate for transferring courier stations was around eight to ten thousand.
Liu Shuo didn't let them lose out, offering to buy at a twenty percent premium.
But his attitude was very arrogant.
Liu Shuo, having watched too many Hong Kong gangster films, relished the sensation of playing the big boss and would show up at a courier station flanked by a few hulking classmates.
Then, Liu Shuo would nonchalantly occupy the owner's sofa and toss a bundle of cash.
"This place, I've taken a liking to it. Take the money," Liu Shuo would say nonchalantly, throwing ten thousand yuan on the table.
Everyone in the courier business worked hard for their money, and Liu Shuo indeed bullied others with his power. A few got scared, and the majority who couldn't fight would directly opt to join.
Xu Huai had a good reputation in the University City, and Liu Shuo's management of the courier stations was purely about bringing them under the Xu Huai's fold. The original owners could continue as usual, only needing to hand over a twenty percent commission each month.
Most people just didn't want the trouble.
A few were stubborn.
Liu Shuo truly had a temper and would directly intend to slap these resisters.
Fortunately, he was stopped by a few of his men.
Those under Xu Huai might not know who the true boss was, but those following Liu Shuo couldn't possibly be unaware of who the boss was, and Zhou Yuwen hadn't kept it a secret from them either.
Zhou Yuwen had told them that since Liu Shuo had a temper, they had to keep him in check. "If you can't, then you don't have to stay here."
So, these men consciously chose their allegiance.
Seeing Liu Shuo about to throw a punch, they quickly intervened.
"Bro, if you hit him, you'll get kicked out by the boss when you go back!" Several people restrained Liu Shuo together.
