The plane flew away, leaving everything to time.

I went to the new company.

The company is a top-level one, and to be honest, I probably wouldn't have passed the resume screening.

But luckily, I got in.

It's just more demanding and tiring, but the bonus doubled.

And, at least now the boss is a decent person.

Unlike the Mediterranean.

Earlier, when Grandpa Chen from our team passed away, he wanted to take a seven-day leave to go back to his hometown.

But he directly said, "It's not like he's your real father or mother, it's even a generation apart, why bother going?"

As a result, Xiao Chen resigned.

Before leaving, he beat him up fiercely in the hallway.

The Mediterranean was afraid of losing face, so he pretended nothing happened.

But we all knew.

...

However, occasionally when I see the screensaver while logging out, I still feel a bit dazed.

It was taken by Lin Chezhi during our team building.

The sunlight was shining on my face, and I looked down at the three small flowers rolling around, laughing happily.

Like a fool.

Sigh.

I locked the screen.

When the paper on the window is not punctured, you can still deceive yourself.

Now that it's completely broken, it's over directly.

I always think of that night when he held me, as if holding the most precious treasure.

His tall nose gently rubbed against my forehead, his voice like a seductive feather, with a slight hoarseness: "An Zhi, believe me."

...

Can't think about it, I have to go to work.

I closed my eyes and quickly withdrew all the messy thoughts, immersing myself in work.

Time flies.

Mu Zining is about to marry that Tang Linlin.

I heard it from an old classmate.

With a "well" and I forgot about it.

But unexpectedly, he somehow came to my building, reeking of alcohol, his white shirt collar wide open, and his face haggard.

He saw me, looked up and smiled at me, and there were two bottles of beer beside him.

"Have a drink?"

He moved over a bit, making room for me.

It's a good thing I finish work late, otherwise, he would be quite a hindrance here.

"I'm getting married."

He looked at me with red eyes, and only then did I realize that it had been two years since Lin Chezhi left.

And I hadn't seen him for almost three years.

"Congratulations, give me a red envelope."

I casually said, my mind not even registering.

He also smiled, "You're really ruthless, you can't even hate me?"

"We've been together for so long, and you just completely kicked me out."

I said, "...Brother, are you crazy? You're getting married, why are you bringing up these things?"

"But if you're willing, I can turn around immediately, I don't want anything, alright?"

He stood up and looked at me intently, reeking of alcohol.

Ah, boring.

"Mu Zining, before, I thought that we had truly loved each other, so I kept some dignity for you. Do you think I don't know that Tang Linlin is rich?"

"You like her, but it's more for what reason, I'm fully aware."

"Now you're saying all this, why, did the sugar daddy dump you?"

After saying that, I completely ignored his pale face and walked past him.

"You're just living off someone else, at least be sincere, don't be a freeloader."

I rolled my eyes and left.

"She looks a lot like you!"

Mu Zining suddenly shouted loudly behind me.

"She looks a lot like how you used to be, obedient, cute, especially lovable, not just because of the money."

"Oh, do you want to wash your hands clean? Okay, okay, I'll give you a chance to wash your hands clean. Go ahead and marry Tang Linlin and live happily ever after."

I turned around and looked at him, and said with a smile, "Mu Zining, you're right. Tang Linlin does look like how I used to be. But you know what? I've changed."

"I've learned to value myself and not settle for someone who doesn't truly love me. I've learned to be independent and not rely on anyone else for my happiness. And most importantly, I've learned to let go of the past and move on."

"So, congratulations on your upcoming marriage. I sincerely hope you find happiness with Tang Linlin. But as for me, I'm perfectly fine without you."

With that, I walked away, leaving Mu Zining standing there, speechless.

It was a small victory, but it felt liberating.

I realized that I no longer needed to hold onto the memories of a love that had long faded. I had grown stronger and wiser, and I was ready to embrace the future with open arms.

Life moved on, and so did I.
