MTL - Flash Marriage with My Ex-Boyfriend’s Nemesis-Chapter 14 breakup in progress 5

Time is like the sand in an hourglass, when it falls slowly, not only the time, but also all the enthusiasm of Ning Qingqing in this relationship will be scattered.

She didn't know how long she had been walking, but when she realized it, she realized that she had passed the community and came to a small commercial area one subway stop away from her home.

It is already off-duty time, so there are rushing crowds passing by in the business district, there are office workers and couples, and everyone has their own destination.

Ning Qingqing stood in the middle of the business district in a daze for a while, then turned her gaze and walked towards a cake shop.

On her 25th birthday, she wants to bid farewell to the past 9 years and embrace life again.

She can cry and be sad, but she can't help loving herself.

Ning Qingqing went inside, chose a fruit cake, an 8-inch formal birthday cake, ordered candles and cake fireworks, and walked home with it.

Qin Yanyue, the little tail, kept following behind her, and then picked up her mobile phone to report to her brother at any time: "Sister-in-law bought a birthday cake, is it her friend's birthday or her birthday today? But she doesn't seem to have an appointment."

Gu Youchen replied: "Her birthday."

In a clubhouse in Beishi, Gu Yuchen pushed the door and went out, and Zhou Luo, the special assistant, chased after him: "Mr. Gu, tomorrow is a critical time for the project. If you are not here, our chances of winning will be greatly reduced!"

Gu Youchen kept walking: "You try to explain to Party A, I believe in your ability."

Zhou Luo looked bitter: "Mr. Gu, Shen's also participated in this competition. Although their group's overall strength is not as good as ours, they are more experienced than us in this field, and we have no advantage."

Gu Youchen said: "I try to delay the time, I will come back after I finish my work."

Zhou Luo was depressed: "Alright Mr. Gu, I will try my best..."

Gu Yuchen said as he walked, "I arranged for Zhou Linghang to come over tonight. Although his family is in a different field, he has some contacts. You can go to tomorrow's meeting together."

Zhou Luo nodded: "Okay." He regained his confidence a little bit.

When Ning Qingqing returned to the community, Gu Youchen took a car to the private airport.

The air tickets to fly to Emperor City were sold out that night, so Gu Youchen called the group's private jet in Beishi.

When he got on the plane and rushed to the sky, Ning Qingqing's takeaway also arrived.

She disassembled each box, put it into a full set of celadon tableware she bought, and placed the cake in the center.

The dining table was full, and it was extraordinarily rich.

Ning Qingqing opened the candle box, inserted two candles with numbers 2 and 5 on both sides of the cake, and inserted fireworks in the center of the cake.

Putting on the birthday princess headband from the cake shop, Ning Qingqing lit the candles, and then turned off the lights at home.

After igniting the fuse on the fireworks, beautiful flames burned above the cake, and in the dancing light and shadow, Ning Qingqing closed her eyes, clasped her hands together and made a wish—

"May my family and friends be healthy and safe."

"May I be able to soar in my own blue sky after I turn 25."

She opened her eyes and blew out the candle.

The pyrotechnics burned out, leaving only the last bit of black ash, which was wrapped in wrapping paper to prevent it from falling on the cake.

Ning Qingqing took off the candles and fireworks one by one, and cut a piece of cake for herself.

"Qingqing, happy birthday!" she said to herself.

She ate the cake bite by bite, and ate the dishes she ordered until her belly was bulging.

At this time, the mobile phone on the table rang, and it was my mother.

"My baby, happy birthday!" Ms. Ning Ruojun is almost fifty years old, and she is still a trapeze artist. At this moment, she just got off the plane and is at the Manhattan airport.

"Thank you mom." Ning Qingqing's throat choked.

I didn't feel anything before, but when she heard her mother's voice, she wanted to cry.

Trying not to let her mother hear the strangeness in her voice, she asked, "Where are you?"

"There is a project in Manhattan, and I have to do it myself. Alas, Qingqing, I heard Nie Yu said that you plan to come back. Did this kid lie to me?" Ning Ruojun asked.

Ning Qingqing said: "No, I don't think the current job is suitable for me, I want to exercise."

"Okay, then mom is waiting for you." After Ning Ruojun said, he turned his head and looked to the side, and was stunned. After a while, she sneered: "Guess who I saw? Your dad!"

Ning Qingqing was stunned: "Ah, he's going to Manhattan too?"

"God knows what he's going to do." Ning Ruojun and her husband divorced 20 years ago, she got custody, and her daughter changed her surname.

When the two were husband and wife, they quarreled every day. After divorce and became strangers, they occasionally met in the business field, and they would talk to each other when they met.

Thinking of her daughter's birthday today, Ning Ruojun decided to ignore that man, but asked, "Qingqing, are you in your apartment now?"

Ning Qingqing said: "I'm in the apartment."

"Okay, mom bought you a birthday present, and it will be delivered later." Ning Ruojun said.

"Well, thank you mom!"

Just as Ning Qingqing hung up the phone, the phone in her hand rang again. It was her father, Tan Haize.

"Qingqing, happy birthday!" Tan Haize was happy only in front of his daughter: "Dad is on a business trip, and he prepared a birthday present for you. Are you still at home?"

Why is this line so similar to my mother?

Ning Qingqing said: "I'm in my apartment."

"Oh, are you okay with Xiao Shen?" Although Tan Haize has his own family after divorce, he has always paid attention to Ning Qingqing.

"Well, it's good, thank you dad for the gift." Ning Qingqing said.

"Why do you see each other like this with Dad?" Tan Haize said with a smile: "Dad is on a business trip to Manhattan, hehe, guess who Dad saw?"

Ning Qingqing's originally gloomy mood actually made her want to laugh because of what her parents said. She said, "I saw my mother, because she just called me and said she was on a business trip in Manhattan."

"Oh—" Tan Haize was very regretful: "It turned out to be one step behind her." The competition was lost.

Ning Qingqing couldn't understand the confrontation between the two at all, but said: "Then take care of your health when you are on a business trip."

"Well, I know, it's my daughter who is caring!" He sighed.

Because after his second marriage, his incumbent gave birth to a son who was 9 years younger than Ning Qingqing. It was the rebellious period, and he always invited parents after middle school.

The two exchanged a few pleasantries and hung up the phone.

The room suddenly fell silent again.

There is a lyric that says "I am most afraid of sudden silence", Ning Qingqing looked at the table full of food, no matter how much she ate, she could only move a little bit.

There was still a lot of cake left, so she carefully packed it and put it in the refrigerator.

After clearing the dining table, she started cleaning the room again.

It is said that when you are busy, you will forget the time, but there is always a time when the housework is done.

After finishing everything, I found that the daze at this moment has multiplied compared to just now.

The outside has gradually quieted down, and this bustling city also has time to sleep. Occasionally, people who work overtime or party late pass by on the street, and finally calm down.

Ning Qingqing looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was only half an hour before 12 o'clock.

She knew that she couldn't wait for an answer after all.

In other words, silence was the final sentence Shen Zhiqian gave her.

She got up and went to the study, found a suitcase, and put the photo frame of the two on the table into it.

Photo frames and gifts, one by one, are filled with memories of many moments in her youth.

She couldn't fit in one box, so she continued to pack in other boxes, only to realize that there were really a lot of things that belonged to each other over the years.

Until the two large boxes were packed, the furnishings in the apartment were reduced by half.

Ning Qingqing locked the two boxes and put them in the corner.

At this moment, Gu Youchen was driving over from the private airport. Qin Yanyue said that Ning Qingqing entered the community and never came out.

The little girl is also fighting, she has been squatting at the gate of the community, and has not left until now, and has been teasing the stray dogs at the gate with the community security.

When Gu Youchen arrived, Qin Yanyue was yawning at the door of the security room.

He hurriedly asked the little girl to wait for him in the car.

Not long after, the Qin family's car also drove over and took Qin Yanyue home.

Gu Youchen stood at the gate of the community and called Ning Qingqing.

In the room, Ning Qingqing heard the sound of the cell phone next door, and subconsciously glanced at the clock on the wall.

It's exactly 12 o'clock.

She quickly came to the next room and picked up her phone.

What is displayed on the screen is - Duan Zishou who loves to eat tiramisu.

Is it Gu Youchen? The light in Ning Qingqing's eyes was completely extinguished.

At this moment, the pointer on the wall has turned past 12 midnight.

Her birthday was over, and there was only the happy birthday message Shen Zhiqian sent more than ten minutes ago in her phone, and the Porsche car keys on the table.

Her 9-year first love finally came to an end in this way.

Ning Qingqing didn't answer Gu Youchen's call, she didn't have any strength to deal with others now.

After the phone automatically hung up, Ning Qingqing picked up the phone, opened the chat interface with Shen Zhiqian, and sent him a message—

"Zhiqian, let's break up. This is my decision after careful consideration. No matter what you think, we are over. I wish you all the best in the future."

After clicking send, Ning Qingqing realized that her hands were shaking badly.

And this message has already been sent, and the time displayed on it is 0:1.

It's over, on the first day of her 25th year, she cut off the past and stopped waiting for someone.

Her dignity made her let go of the difficult past and start another unknown life of her own.

The author has something to say:
