Chapter 28 Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain

Yucheng, the highest floor of a building in the city center.

Amidst the melodious music, Xia Jinyan and the other three raised their glasses and touched them lightly.

"Cheers~"

Zhou Tianzuo smiled and hugged Cheng Xueer's shoulders, and drank the champagne in one gulp:

"Tell me, Teacher Xia, you are too serious. You just graduated from college and you act like a little old man. What? Do you want your buddy to find you a wife?"

Xia Jinyan frowned:

"Can you turn off the music? It's too loud, so I can't hear what you said clearly."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, if those Beatles fanatics hear this, they will blow you to death." Zhou Tianzuo turned off the record player and babbled:

""With The Beatles", this record is the Beatles' second album recorded in 1963, the original version! Do you know how much this thing can sell for if it is put at auction... It's really noisy.

…”

"Because I am a math teacher and I don't have such an elegant temperament."

"I know you are a hard-working gardener, but no matter what, you have to enjoy life, right?" Zhou Tianzuo held Cheng Xueer in his right hand and Xia Jinyan in his left hand, smiling brightly:

"Just like now, with my girlfriend and good friends around me, listening to out-of-print records, drinking a drink worth two thousand yuan, and standing at the top of the city, this is what life is called!"

"Life! Life! Happy! Happy! Ouch-ooh-" Cheng Xueer giggled with joy, her twin ponytails trembling.

She took Zhou Tianzuo's hand, jumped onto the sofa, and danced the cha-cha dance.

Xia Jinyan looked at the energetic couple and took a sip of wine in silence. After hesitating for a while, he picked up the luxury car keys that Zhou Tianzuo had casually placed on the coffee table and beat the beat.

Cha Cha dance is a variant of Latin dance with a very heavy rhythm. If someone is playing the beat next to you, two people can dance more happily.

At the end of the dance, Cheng Xueer was dripping with sweat and collapsed on the cushion, hissing and panting.

Zhou Tianzuo, on the other hand, was like a husky, giggling around his girlfriend, saying "Can you do it?", which made Cheng Xueer stare in anger and clamored for Xia Jinyan to help her catch this piece of shit.

Both of them were a little noisy when they were crazy, but Xia Jinyan was not worried about neighbors coming because Zhou Tianzuo bought all the top three floors, and with the already good sound insulation layer, it was impossible to hear it from other places.

to the noise.

After resting for a while, Cheng Xueer's strength recovered. She stretched her waist and spread her ponytails:

"My whole body is covered in sweat and so dirty... Huh, I'm going to take a shower, and you can continue drinking. We have agreed that we won't come home until we get drunk tonight."

The girl left and there were only two men left in the room.

The atmosphere suddenly darkened.

Zhou Tianzuo lowered his head and played with the record player, while Xia Jinyan stared at the dark night outside the window in trance.

The math teacher was the first to break the silence:

"I have to leave before half past nine."

"Ah? Why so early?"

"That government document, Yucheng has implemented a curfew. If you wander outside too late, you may be questioned, which will have a bad impact."

"Then you can live here. In such a big place, why can't you just have a bed..."

"No, I have to go back and prepare the lesson plan." Xia Jinyan paused and then said:

"Tianzuo, I plan to leave Yucheng."

After hearing this, Zhou Tianzuo stood up immediately. He was very tall, half a head taller than Xia Jinyan, and he felt very oppressive:

"Xia Jinyan, because Xue'er and I are together, do you want to break up with me?"

"I don't have this idea. I will call you during the holidays. If there is anything I can do to help in the future, I will be on call no matter where I am."

"Ha... what kind of nonsense are you thinking?" Zhou Tianzuo stepped forward a few steps. His appearance was tough and handsome, but Xia Jinyan was handsome and gentle. The feeling of stepping forward was like a tyrannical man oppressing a scholar:

"How about playing with me in the animal world? The losing lion will have to voluntarily withdraw from the territory? Is this interesting? The two of us have been playing together since we couldn't speak. We met Xueer when we were in elementary school, and we have been together for so many years.

Are you going to end your relationship right away?" He stared at his friend closely, sincerely and eagerly:

"I would like to say that for Xueer and I, you are an indispensable and important presence in our lives. We want to get your blessing on the wedding."

…

"Jinyan left?"

Cheng Xueer put on silk pajamas and stared blankly at the bottle of champagne that Xia Jinyan drank up.

He rarely drank alcohol before.

Zhou Tianzuo sat on the sofa in a depressed mood:

"Well, let's go."

"Looking at your expression, it means we haven't reached an agreement yet."

"It's not like you don't know his temper. He looks fair and tender, and looks easy to bully. In fact, he has the most stubborn temper. Jinyan has decided to leave Yucheng, at the latest before our wedding."

"Does it hurt him so much if we are together?"

"The girl I have loved since childhood is with my best brother, and no one can stand it. Reason tells him that he should bless us, but emotion tells him to stay away from us immediately, and away from Yucheng, who makes him sad.

"

"But he looks very calm."

"That's because he has always been rational and can suppress the emotions in his heart." Zhou Tianzuo said with a wry smile:

"I am always suppressing, so I will miss the opportunity to be with you... I understand his thoughts. He wants to be successful and famous before confessing to you, but I can't control that much. Since I like it, I will try my best to pursue it...

...Otherwise, I might have a hard time watching you look happy now."

"Look at how you're acting like that? Apart from you and Jin Yan, I can't find any other man?"

Zhou Tianzuo said matter-of-factly:

"Absolutely. You have been hanging out with us since you were a child. Ask yourself, have you ever seen anyone of the same age who is better than me and Jinyan? You have been raised by us, so you naturally have high standards."

Cheng Xueer was amused by his careless bastard appearance and smiled subconsciously:

"Ha... But, Tianzuo, it should be a good thing that Jinyan wants to leave, right? He is talented. He will have good development if he goes to the capital or abroad. It is better than being a high school teacher in Yucheng."

"He can leave, but he must leave after our wedding!" Zhou Tianzuo's expression was serious:

"There is a difference between running away and feeling relieved... If he doesn't attend our wedding, he will deceive himself forever and spend his life in a state of trauma and confusion. He will never be happy in this life."

"But if he sees you and I exchanging rings with his own eyes and getting married in front of everyone, his dream will wake up. Although it still hurts, the pain is only temporary and he will get over it soon, Xue'er,

In fact, you women sometimes don’t understand men very well... For us, cutting off with an ax is better than cutting flesh with a blade. Once his illusions are shattered and there is no reason to deceive himself, he can shed his burden and pursue his own happiness!"

"Alas... Tianzuo, Jinyan, it's great to have a friend like you."

"This is all mutual. Jinyan is also very kind to me... Oh, Xue'er, I forgot to tell you that our wedding date may have changed."

"ah?"

"That curfew document, I'm afraid Yucheng is not peaceful recently."
