Chapter 32: You like such a thing? @……
All of Tang Man’s memories were coated with a layer of vividly embellished pretense of peace, so those memories that made her sad and unhappy could only pause temporarily in her mind, which also led to her current temperament.
In her memories now, there were all the brilliant aspects of Si Jiahe. She liked the boy’s purity and cleanliness, liked that innocence and liveliness, or in harsher terms, called it silly and sweet. And this silly and sweet one also had an exquisite appearance that ordinary people could not reach.
Perhaps she was born with a desire to control in her nature, hoping to manipulate others. Of course, in modern society, this kind of personality rarely appeared in women. The words control and manipulation were often associated with men.
For example, in some current idol dramas or novels, there were often appearances of pampered wives or silly and sweet female leads, while the male lead always appeared in a high and mighty posture.
They might have a bad temper or overwhelming power, but they had to be jealous. Of course, women would also be jealous, but men’s jealousy mostly appeared as a possessive attitude, often accompanied by things that might hurt the other party.
Of course, Tang Man also had a weak side.
As mentioned before, she was really not a good person. She had a decent face but an unpleasant temperament, being fickle and tired of the old, and hating responsibility.
In her own words, she was a thoroughly rotten person.
That’s why Si Jiahe was so terrified because Tang Man was sometimes just an ordinary person.
She hated trouble, hated being a burden, and most of all, hated responsibility.
So she enjoyed love but had no expectations for marriage, never thought about giving birth to a child, and had no loving heart when seeing children on the street. At most, she would give some kindness to these young children out of social awareness, but that was just the most basic moral sense.
And now he had really become a trouble. An ordinary person encountering depression would also worry and be afraid, and Tang Man would have more thoughts in her mind.
Sometimes she was really a very ruthless person.
She lived very soberly, always very soberly.
This was also why Si Jiahe never had the idea of using his illness to tie her down, because even if he tied her down for a while, in the end, Tang Man would cut off that rope.
He knew how unpleasant he was when he was sick, with all kinds of bad thoughts pervading his mind. Only left-handed rehabilitation could make him recover for a while.
But after taking the medicine, he had no interest in anything, just like a pool of stagnant water. He felt sleepy every day, and the drugs for treating depression usually had side effects. He didn’t want to lose that only bit of usefulness in front of Tang Man.
He knew that Tang Man liked his body, liked his reactions in bed, and even liked his crying.
At this moment, Si Jiahe fell into a sense of despair.
Tang Man was silent for a long time before asking stiffly, “Is it because of me? But back then, it was clearly you who proposed the breakup first.”
So how did you get sick too?
This was something Tang Man couldn’t understand. People’s emotions were sometimes really strange, especially in her opinion.
Si Jiahe’s tears finally fell. He slowly rested his head on Tang Man’s shoulder, and the tears immediately soaked that piece of fabric. However, Tang Man felt it was extremely hot, as if pressed by something heavy.
“Man Man, I don’t want to break up with you.” Si Jiahe said while crying.
Du Henian and Xie Li on the side originally couldn’t bear to see this man’s tears and wanted to get angry, but they didn’t dare to speak because of Tang Man’s presence. They could only look aside with a tolerant expression. Hearing this sentence, they couldn’t help but look at Tang Man.
To say that there were a few people in this world who understood Tang Man, Xie Li was definitely one, Du Henian was half of one, and Si Jiahe was someone who could always find Tang Man’s line in a muddled way.
But even so, they didn’t dare to be sure of Tang Man’s answer.
After a brief silence, Tang Man touched Si Jiahe’s fair neck, rubbed it, and pressed her fingertips on his protruding bones, as round as Si Jiahe himself.
She smiled faintly, “Why are you crying? When did I say I wanted to break up?”
After saying that, she met Si Jiahe’s raised head, her gaze connecting with his, calm and unreadable, but seeming to contain a hint of a smile, “Am I the kind of irresponsible person?”
With these words, Xie Li wanted to turn around and leave, but for some reason, he endured it for a moment and still didn’t move. Du Henian in the distance also didn’t move. Compared to Si Jiahe’s overjoyed and tearful expression, his face visibly turned ugly.
He couldn’t help but ask sarcastically, “Tang Man, you like such a thing so much?”
To such an extent.
Tang Man’s hand paused for a moment before leaving Si Jiahe’s neck. She smiled indifferently and said a hurtful sentence lightly, “Henian, I actually still like your previous appearance. Your current appearance is too ugly.”
When a man became sarcastic and bitter, he didn’t look good either.
At the beginning, Du Henian’s temperament was much colder and gentler, like a lofty flower, not on a snowy mountain, but a lofty flower on spring water, born with a gentle aloofness.
Now, what had he become?
Du Henian’s face instantly withered. His lips moved a few times, wanting to say something, but he couldn’t say anything. Because in Tang Man’s view, his deliberate revelation of Si Jiahe’s illness at this time was ill-intentioned and even had a coercive meaning.
Because Tang Man herself was also very clear that she was not a saint and would not tie herself to Si Jiahe because of this kind of thing, and might even break up.
But sometimes bad people also had good intentions. This might be one of the few times she had made such a decision in so many years.
It was probably because she couldn’t let go of that little bit of face, Tang Man thought aimlessly.
After saying this, there was no need to say anything else. This relationship had now reached a complete dead end. In the future, even meeting once would be awkward, so it was better to pretend not to know each other.
She pulled Si Jiahe and turned to leave, really wanting to shamelessly ask Xie Li for a ride, but felt her hand being pulled.
Du Henian was like grabbing the last lifeline. He had a feeling in his heart that this was his last chance. If he didn’t grasp it, they would really break up like this.
Just like Si Jiahe two years ago.
But Si Jiahe had youth to waste, while he could no longer afford to waste it. There weren’t many years of youth in life, and most of his youth had been wasted before he met Tang Man.
“Man Man.” The man’s voice was a bit choked, and his eyes were a bit red. He tightly grasped Tang Man’s sleeve, then held her wrist, “Man Man, please, can we not break up?”
“Don’t give up on me.”
“If you think I’ve changed in any way, I can change back.”
He stared at Tang Man with a pair of fierce eyes, but took on a begging posture, putting himself so low, with a humble spine as if carrying a heavy mountain.
