Chapter 175 Not a nostalgic person
Yunxia stood in a restaurant, hesitated for a few seconds, and then walked straight in.
"Welcome, ma'am. How many people are in your party? Do you have a reservation?" A friendly waiter approached.
Yunxia said calmly, "Number 162, two people."
The waiter stepped forward to lead the way for Yunxia: "Okay, your friend has arrived. I'll take you there."
The man sitting at the dining table immediately spotted Yunxia walking towards him. He stood up, smiled, and said to her, "You're here, Xiaxia."
"haven't seen you for a long time"
Yunxia walked to her seat and gave a polite smile: "Yes, it's been a long time."
"Please sit down. I've already ordered some dishes, all according to your usual tastes. Do you want to order anything else?"
Since Fan Heng was treating her to the meal, she naturally wanted to order more. After all, it wasn't her money. Besides, she had come all this way just to say a few words of rejection to him.
That would be such a loss.
Yunxia took the menu, and Fan Heng called over the waiter. Then she ordered several more dishes.
"Xiaxia, you're getting more and more beautiful," Fan Heng said with a smile as always, staring intently at her.
Yunxia remained composed, leaning back in her dining chair and looking at Fan Heng, saying, "We're not exactly close right now, so you don't need to call me Xiaxia."
His smile froze for a moment, and after a two-second silence, he continued, "Do you really not care about me anymore?"
Yunxia found it somewhat amusing, and she chuckled softly: "It wasn't Fan Heng. We broke up amicably, and it's been more than four years since we separated, hasn't it?"
"Isn't it normal that I don't have feelings for you? Besides, I've dated other people since then. Am I supposed to stay a widow for you?"
Fan Heng knew Yunxia was sharp-tongued, but hearing her say that, he suddenly felt choked up.
"Xiaxia, I know that's not what I meant. After all, we have been separated for so many years, but since I went abroad, I haven't been in a relationship. I feel that you've always been in my heart."
"So the reason I came back to China early this time is to come and see you. And you're single now, aren't you? So could you give me a chance?" Fan Heng looked at Yun Xia with a sincere expression.
It has to be said that Fan Heng is quite handsome; otherwise, Yun Xia wouldn't have been attracted to him in the first place. Now, he exudes an even more mature and sophisticated charm than before.
Actually, just looking at him like that, few girls wouldn't be tempted, but Yunxia was very clear-headed at this moment. She didn't want to have anything to do with Fan Heng anymore, and she didn't want to rekindle their old feelings.
If he is truly as affectionate as he claims, why didn't he hesitate to study abroad for my sake back then?
She doesn't have any feelings for him now; the time when she really cared about him is over.
She had once regretted this relationship, which was seen by others as a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman. Although their family backgrounds were somewhat different, she never felt inferior because of it.
She felt that she was beautiful, had a great figure, was hardworking and ambitious, and was also smart, so she thought she was worthy of all men.
That's just her personality; she doesn't go back to an old flame. Since the breakup was a well-thought-out decision, she had already prepared herself mentally for the possibility of regretting it later.
Some of the dishes had already been served. She took a bite of the pasta on her plate with her fork; it was her favorite creamy mushroom and bacon pasta.
She spoke slowly and deliberately, "I've made myself very clear, and my attitude has been very clear."
Yunxia looked up at him: "I'm not one to dwell on the past. I've already taken the time to completely forget you, so I don't want you to disrupt this peace."
"Fan Heng, you know perfectly well why we broke up, and how it was amicable."
"Besides, the one after you is no worse than you, and I haven't broken up with him for very long. So even if we were to get back together, it would be with that other person, wouldn't it?"
Fan Heng frowned, his smile gradually fading, but he still refused to give up: "I know you don't need to deny it, you're still angry with me. Back then, we might not have been mature enough, and I didn't dare to gamble with my future."
"You know my parents have high expectations for me. I initially asked you to wait for me, but since you don't want to, I can't force you."
Yunxia put down her fork and gave a mocking laugh: "So the problem is that I can't wait?"
Fan Heng neither denied nor admitted to the statement: "Xiaxia, if only our feelings had been stronger back then."
Yun Xia really felt that talking to him was affecting her appetite. She glanced at the food on the table and saw that so many dishes were still untouched. If she left now in anger, it would be a waste of her trip.
She held back her anger, gritted her teeth, and tried to keep her tone calm: "I want to eat first, and then we'll talk."
Fan Heng thought Yunxia's attitude had changed, and he felt hopeful again. A smile returned to his face, and he moved the dishes Yunxia liked to eat in front of her: "Okay, let's eat first. These are also your favorite dishes."
During the meal, Fan Heng would occasionally strike up a conversation with her, asking about Yunxia's recent situation, to which she would give vague answers.
Fan Heng didn't feel disappointed or annoyed, because it was already good enough that Yunxia was able to eat with him properly and answer his questions. He felt that if he continued to persist, he would definitely win her back.
After eating and drinking her fill, Yunxia leaned back in her chair, wiped her mouth with a tissue, and then took out her lipstick from her bag to touch it up.
"Are you full?"
"Would you like to eat some more, or order some more dishes?" Fan Heng asked considerately.
Yunxia glanced at herself in the small mirror to see if her makeup had smudged, then casually replied, "Do you think someone with my physique can eat that much?"
Fan Heng found it somewhat amusing. Yunxia had always been witty in her speech, which was why he had been able to reject so many suitors and only give Yunxia special consideration.
"Then... can we have a talk?" Fan Heng asked tentatively.
Yunxia put the mirror and lipstick into her bag, tilted her head and said to him, "Weren't we talking the whole time we ate?"
"I think we've talked enough for today, so I'll be going now. Bye!"
After saying that, Yunxia picked up her bag and prepared to leave.
Fan Heng was clearly stunned, then quickly stood up and grabbed her wrist: "Xiaxia, are you really going to do this?"
Can you really forget how sweet and happy we used to be?
Yunxia glanced around and noticed two or three eyes were fixed on them. Feeling a bit overwhelmed, she turned to him and said, "Let's talk outside."
Fan Heng then paid the bill and went out with Yun Xia.
Yunxia spoke calmly, standing beside Fan Heng and parting her red lips slightly: "Fan Heng, you know me very well, don't you?"
"When I chose to be with you, I felt that you were seven-tenths similar to me."
The two of them walked along the street, one on the left and one on the right.
