Chapter 255 The First Day of Heartbreak_3
"Is it okay for me to think like this?" Zheng Yanyan asked.
Lu Lin said, "It should be okay."
Lu Lin was still good at comforting people; hearing her say this, Zheng Yanyan felt happy again all at once.
Lu Lin asked, "Is there anything else? I'm gaming."
Actually, Zheng Yanyan wanted to ask if Zhou Yuwen had really been with Lu Lin last night. Did you guys stay in the same room? Did anything happen between you?
But after consideration, she had already offended Lu Lin so deeply yesterday. If she asked such questions, it would probably just upset Lu Lin again, so she hesitated and then shook her head and said, "No, nothing else."
"You go ahead and play your game, I'll just be here, quietly keeping you company."
Lu Lin glanced at Zheng Yanyan but said nothing.
And so, Zheng Yanyan kept company with Lu Lin who gamed until eight o'clock in the evening.
The school internet cafe computers weren't very good; not only was the internet speed slow, but the computer specs were nothing much to speak of either. In a classroom, groups of students, mostly boys, played on the computers, swearing as they enjoyed their games.
Zheng Yanyan thought back to the times she played games at Zhou Yuwen's home.
All of the computers in Zhou Yuwen's house were top-spec, and there were even gaming chairs, which were particularly comfortable to sit in.
She used to effortlessly stretch out her long legs and happily snuggle up with Zhou Yuwen while gaming.
Sometimes, they would even cuddle together to watch a movie.
But there was nothing here.
If she really did break up with Zhou Yuwen, she might never get to visit his spacious flat ever again.
At that thought, Zheng Yanyan's nose felt sour once more.
So, while Lu Lin played her game carelessly, Zheng Yanyan sat obediently beside her, looking completely disheartened.
The school internet cafe's facilities were extremely basic, even the chairs were those forty or fifty-yuan office chairs.
Zheng Yanyan was wearing a red loose-fitting hoodie with blue wide-leg denim trousers and white sneakers.
She sat with her legs locked in her arms, hugging her knees, looking utterly out of it.
From time to time, she would also check her phone, wondering if Zhou Yuwen might realize he'd been inconsiderate and initiate reconciling with her.
But it was so strange, why hadn't her phone made a sound?
Could it be on silent mode?
Looking down, Zheng Yanyan realized it wasn't on silent mode; it was because Zhou Yuwen hadn't contacted her.
She clicked on Zhou Yuwen's profile to take a look.
It still showed, "Visible to friends for three days."
Zheng Yanyan let out a sigh of relief, thinking: Thank goodness, Zhou Yuwen hasn't deleted me.
Because Zheng Yanyan was right by her side, Lu Lin wasn't in the mood to game anymore. She didn't come here to play games, after all.
By a little after eight o'clock, Lu Lin said, "Shall we go out to eat something?"
Zheng Yanyan wasn't feeling well at all, the entire person had a listless air about her, and she shook her head. She said, "I don't have an appetite."
"I've only eaten a deep-fried dough stick and an egg in the hotel this morning, and haven't had anything to eat since then," Zheng Yanyan said.
Lu Lin also became somewhat silent, unsure what to say.
At that moment Zheng Yanyan asked again, "Linlin, do you know where Zhou Yuwen went?"
Lu Lin said, "Liu Shuo said he wanted to rent a house, he probably went to look at houses with Liu Shuo."
"Oh."
Seeing that Zheng Yanyan was constantly distracted, Lu Lin asked what Zheng Yanyan was thinking about.
Zheng Yanyan told Lu Lin that Zhou Yuwen had two computers at home, both top-spec.
"Originally the two computers he started with weren't very good, but then he bought two more, both the highest spec, and I always played games at Zhou Yuwen's house," Zheng Yanyan said.
Lu Lin mmm-hmmed.
Zheng Yanyan's voice carried a hint of discomfort as she said if she broke up with Zhou Yuwen, she wouldn't be able to play games with him anymore.
"Linlin, do you think it's because Zhou Yuwen despises me for being too stupid? That's why he broke up with me?" Zheng Yanyan asked innocently.
Lu Lin said that wasn't the case; Zhou Yuwen wasn't that into playing games either.
Lu Lin took Zheng Yanyan to the canteen and ordered a clay pot for her.
Telling her to at least eat a little.
But Zheng Yanyan shook her head, saying she couldn't eat.
"I don't feel like eating anything right now."
Having said that, she glanced at her phone again.
She asked Lu Lin to check her phone for her.
She was afraid that Zhou Yuwen had blocked her.
Only when she was sure he hadn't did she breathe a sigh of relief.
After hesitating, Zheng Yanyan asked Lu Lin, "Linlin, could you talk to Zhou Yuwen for me?"
"Hmm?" Lu Lin didn't understand.
Zheng Yanyan said, "Just tell him I haven't even eaten lunch, ask him to get back together with me, okay?"
Lu Lin thought this approach was foolish, but seeing Zheng Yanyan's pleading eyes, she agreed nonetheless.
Zheng Yanyan was thrilled. She said, "Thank you, Linlin. I'm so glad you're here for me. If I didn't have you, I really wouldn't know what to do. I was even talking about you like that yesterday..."
Zheng Yanyan truly felt ashamed.
Lu Lin didn't know what to say, only that it was all in the past.
"I sent it. Have some food," she urged.
"I don't want to eat," Zheng Yanyan shook her head.
It was Zheng Yanyan's first breakup, and significantly her first love was with Zhou Yuwen. Although their relationship had lasted only four months, Zhou Yuwen had completely filled Zheng Yanyan's emotional world during that time.
Going from high school to university is like entering a whole new world.
And in Zheng Yanyan's new world, it was entirely accompanied by Zhou Yuwen.
To put it unexaggeratedly, her university life was colorful because of Zhou Yuwen's presence.
Every gathering, every singing session involved Zhou Yuwen.
She remembered the late summer in September, sitting comfortably in Zhou Yuwen's arms while eating barbecue with a group of students.
She also remembered the evening on the sports field, Zhou Yuwen's passionate serenade with his guitar.
And now, all of it was gone.
Finding a boyfriend like Zhou Yuwen in university is no easy feat, especially for a girl like Zheng Yanyan with high standards. There might be boys richer than Zhou Yuwen, but they might not possess Zhou Yuwen's maturity and sensibility.
And those more mature and sensible than Zhou Yuwen might not be as young and attractive as he is.
Without exaggeration, for Zheng Yanyan who had dated Zhou Yuwen, even if she never had anything to do with Zhou Yuwen again, it would probably be difficult to embark on another relationship.
Moreover, as long as she was at this university, her life was destined to receive news of Zhou Yuwen from all sides.
Like time flying by, it was already mid-December.
Zhou Yuwen's royalties for November were calculated.
Total royalties amounted to 1.06 million.
The highest across the entire network.
After writing novels for four months, at this moment, he finally made it big...
