Chapter 50 Sober Up(2/2)
Tong Bin laughed at himself, "Oh... I... I always thought we, Kong Yajie and we... we were dating... for so many years, we have been doing homework together, and later we worked together. When we worked overtime and worked together, when we were on a business trip, we often squeezed into a bed... On our birthday, we also gave each other gifts and celebrated dinner together. We also said Happy Holidays on Valentine's Day. Ha! But during the Dragon Boat Festival, we would still say..."
Sheng Yao listened quietly.
Tong Bin was excited last night and talked about the fact that he suddenly discovered that Kong Yajie was married. Tong Bin has calmed down today, and what he said became a memory between him and Kong Yajie.
However, after these memories faded away the pink filters that Tong Bin added without authorization, the emotions presented were no longer the sweetness of love, but a tacit understanding between many years of partners.
"...We just watched a movie alone, but she won the movie tickets for the lottery, and no one went to watch it together... Actually, we don't like watching movies. Both of us like to play games and often play games online. Other times... we traveled together several times, and it was a team building organized by the company. We had lunch together at work, or just worked overtime, and had dinner together." Tong Bin's eyes became confused, as if he was waking up from a dream, at a loss.
His eyes rolled and he looked at the wedding photo in the living room, "How did you and your wife meet?"
Sheng Yao replied: "We went to the same university, but not the same major."
"Oh... have you dated in college?"
"Um."
"You... did you confess your love and propose dating?"
"Yes."
Tong Bin lowered his head and digged the porridge that was gradually getting colder, "If I had confessed, would the situation be different now?"
"I don't know." Sheng Yao answered truthfully, "It is possible that Kong Yajie will agree to your pursuit and break up with her boyfriend, or it is possible that she will reject you and keep a distance from you."
Tong Bin pulled the corner of his mouth, "It's impossible to agree. Her boyfriend is so powerful. He has good grades when he was studying, and he has a good job. He is famous in the industry... Yaya and I are actually second-tier and logistics support positions. We can't do first-tier R&D positions. That's a test of people's IQ." He sighed, a little envious, and a little helpless, "Just like Zheng Yichao, can you be better than her boyfriend. Several girls in our class are chasing Zheng Yichao.
.Ah... I didn't chase him from the beginning. He was the aura of a top student. At first, it was not Zheng Yichao, but another person in our class. The man had a very good grades, tall and thin, and was very popular. Zheng Yichao came from behind, and his grades were good, and more people pursued him. According to the student number, he should have been in the same group as Yaya, but he entered the experimental group of the big bull in our college. The classmate who was supposed to be in the same group as me joined the army again. Yaya and I were assigned to the same group..."
Tong Bin talked about the past. He rubbed his head, "I originally thought it was our fate... It was Zheng Yichao who was popular at that time, and Yaya missed Zheng Yichao. Some students' words were... quite ugly. It was not intentional. Everyone thinks that. Zheng Yichao and Yaya are talented and beautiful. They also think that our class will have another couple. As a result, I inserted it..."
"But Kong Yajie doesn't mind this kind of thing, right? She didn't want to develop a relationship with that Zheng Yichao, right?" Sheng Yao asked.
Tong Bin nodded, "Of course. Yaya took the initiative to ask me for a phone call, discuss our homework together, contact the tutor, go to the library to check information, and apply for the laboratory... We didn't get the first place in that homework, but our grades were also good. After that, Yaya also gave it to me, and we would do the next homework together... In fact, we met Zheng Yichao in the library... He said that he could take care of the experimental group and our classroom homework. Yaya refused."
"It sounds like you care a lot about your classmate Zheng Yichao." Sheng Yao suddenly said.
Tong Bin was stunned, "Ah...this is definitely. He used to be in the same class, but now he is in the same class...and... Zheng Yichao... When Zheng Yichao first entered university, he was not very eye-catching and suddenly became enlightened..."
Tong Bin lowered his head and spoke in a sour tone, "But I heard that when he was studying, he had good grades and was always the first in the grade in school. Maybe he was not very used to it just in college and didn't do well in the first two times... Smart people are always smart."
"It's nothing wrong with you being friends with Kong Yajie, right?" Sheng Yao brought the topic back to Kong Yajie's affairs. "You have been friends for more than ten years. You have been together for a longer time than she and her husband. After getting along over the years, you both should feel very comfortable, and you haven't thought about going further, right?"
Tong Bin looked at the cold porridge in a daze, and his hands also loosened. His soft hair fell back onto his scalp, looking messy.
"Are you jealous of Kong Yajie's boyfriend, angry that Kong Yajie is dating and getting married with others, or is angry that she is dating. She doesn't tell you this friend when she gets married. Instead, Zheng Yichao, a person who has become irrelevant back then, knows this situation?" Sheng Yao finished this very long question slowly.
The room was trapped in a quiet atmosphere.
Time passed without realizing it. Sheng Yao did not urge Tong Bin to answer his questions. He let Tong Bin immerse himself in his thoughts.
Suddenly, Tong Bin sat upright as if awakened.
He took out his pocket and took out his vibrating cell phone.
"Ah... the class reunion is about to begin." Tong Bin lowered his eyes, as if he was avoiding Sheng Yao. He picked up the cold porridge, poured it into his mouth in a few seconds, wiped his mouth, and stood up.
"I have to go home. I, that...thank you. I..." Tong Bin drooped his head and stammered, and didn't say a complete sentence for a long time.
Sheng Yao also stood up, "If you have any, you can call me. We will have a drink together then."
Tong Bin nodded quickly. He breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to leave here immediately.
"When you see Kong Yajie and her husband, you..." Sheng Yao followed Tong Bin and sent him out.
Tong Bin interrupted Sheng Yao's words, "I know. I... I won't be confused again. Thank you." He finally looked at Sheng Yao's eyes. His mouth opened, showing a bitter smile, and his whole body seemed to be covered in a dark aura.
Sheng Yao frowned, but said nothing. After sending Tong Bin out, he returned to the house.
He looked at the wedding photos in the living room, looked at Bai Xiao in the wedding photos for a moment, and his eyes fell little by little to Bai Xiao’s left hand wedding ring.
He stood there for a long time before entering the bedroom and changed into more formal clothes.
Although Tong Bin's behavior was normal last night and he looked very rational when he woke up, Sheng Yao was not completely relieved.
Rather than saying that he is suspicious of Tong Bin, he is more suspicious of the Monster Clinic. The Monster Clinic will never suddenly change its location for no reason.
The doctor is not a bad person, but this does not mean that the patient receiving treatment is normal. Whether it is the sarcoma that grows on Liu Yu or the monster that Mao Mao eventually becomes, they are full of dangers. If the patient himself does not restrain the side effects of this mutation, it is hard to predict what harm these monsters will bring.
Tong Bin's performance aggravated Sheng Yao's suspicion.
Tong Bin seemed to have not figured out his feelings for Kong Yajie. He was angry and complained in a nagging manner. He did not have a clear goal, nor did he have a specific plan.
Unlike Liu Yu, who knew very well that the person he hated was Yu Guangchun, nor was Mao Mao very clear that the person he wanted to protect was Lu Meimei.
Tong Bin is in a chaos.
What kind of monster will such emotions grow?
Sheng Yao's heart was heavy, and his expression became serious.
