Chapter 272 No One Likes to Be Unchosen
But she fell in love with Ziyi at first sight.
"Xiao Zi, please give me another chance. Didn't you say that you can give me a 100% chance of error?"
Ziyi subconsciously glanced at Qin Yuhuan, a bystander, out of the corner of her eye.
At that time, Qin Yuhuan was pouring himself some water leisurely, holding a white bone china cup in his hand and drinking the water slowly.
"But I'm already dead!" Ziyi pulled her hand away. "Bai Zhu, I didn't break my promise of a lifetime. I gave you a lifetime. I just... got a new chance. Why can't I start over?"
"In your world, I have become a thing of the past, which cannot be changed. In this world, I just don't want to continue our unhappy life. I am also a human being. Yes, I can digest my emotions by myself, but that doesn't mean I don't have emotions."
Ziyi thought she had let go of the past between her and Shu Baizhu. She received a lot of love from Qin Yuhuan, which was enough for her to grow again and be reborn after withering.
However, Shu Baizhu's relentless pressure still made her feel the long-lost resentment.
Those... resentments from countless nights of being ignored, and those... resentments from never being chosen.
She didn't like being the one not chosen.
No one likes it.
"I know, I know, Xiaozi, it's all my fault." Shu Baizhu still wanted to make amends. She looked up at Ziyi with red eyes. There were surging emotions in Ziyi's eyes, including reluctance, complexity, resentment, and all kinds of emotions, but the only thing missing was the ardent love she had in the past.
Shu Baizhu's heart seemed to be hit hard, crushed again and again, and the tears that she had held back for a long time could no longer be controlled, "Xiaozi, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please, please give me another chance."
"I can't do it." Ziyi sighed softly, "I'm sorry, I can't do it. If you find this hard to accept, just think of it as a change of heart. I don't love you anymore, not at all."
"Bai Zhu, you said you loved me, but looking back over the years, I hardly felt your love from you. Even now, I don't know what your love is like."
Apart from telling her that "she loves her", Shu Baizhu could not see any so-called love in other places.
"I thought I understood you. I told myself that you are a bamboo that defies frost and rain. You won't bend for anyone, and I won't ask you to bend for anything. In fact, I sometimes want to be that exception."
Shu Baizhu knew that what Ziyi said, "I won't let you bend over backwards for anything," was true. Her life had been smooth sailing since she met Ziyi. In fact...
She is not an actress with talented acting skills, but Ziyi still helped her get award-winning films. If one film doesn't work, she'll take two. If two films don't work, she'll keep filming. As long as she wants to win an award, Ziyi will provide her with countless opportunities.
It is precisely because of how gentle and tolerant the love we received in the past was that the ruthlessness and decisiveness at this moment is even more difficult to accept.
Qin Yuhuan noticed that Ziyi's endurance had almost reached its limit. Her hanging hands had already been clenched into fists and were trembling slightly. She reached out and touched the back of Ziyi's hand.
Ziyi looked down at her. She picked up the unfinished cup of tea and said, "Would you like some? It's a little cold."
Ziyi laughed and muttered, "I'm not angry yet, so you give me the leftovers." But she took the teacup and drank the tea in the cup at just the right temperature. Then she said "here" and returned the cup to Qin Yuhuan.
Qin Yuhuan's sudden intervention made Ziyi relax a little. To be honest, she still felt uncomfortable instinctively when she saw Shu Baizhu's face.
But she had already made up her mind to sort out the relationship, so she had to deal with it calmly to the end.
"Xiao Zi, you are my exception, you have always been." Shu Baizhu felt dizzy, she didn't know what else to do to keep Ziyi, "What Qin Yuhuan can do for you, I can do too, I will give you everything, okay, Xiao Zi, please don't... don't leave me."
Ziyi and Qin Yuhuan get along too well. Qin Yuhuan's intimacy with Ziyi reminds her of how she and Ziyi got along in her previous life.
She had known Ziyi for twenty years and had been married to her for ten years. Even in the most innocent high school days, she was the one who quietly waited for Ziyi. Panic swept over her. Shu Baizhu knew that if she couldn't catch Ziyi this time -
The posture can no longer be grasped.
But she didn't know that when she pulled Qin Yuhuan closer for comparison, she really stepped on Ziyi's minefield. Ziyi suddenly waved her hand, and Shu Baizhu lost her balance and fell on the sofa.
"Shu Baizhu, how dare you compete with her?" The hatred could no longer be suppressed. "How can I be sorry for you? That night, you knew that she was in trouble, but you still asked Shu Baizhen to stop me at the service area, right?"
Just because she deliberately didn't say something doesn't mean she didn't know about it. She was just used to maintaining dignity between each other and didn't want to embarrass anyone.
"What are you thinking? If Qin Yuhuan is not rescued, what will be waiting for her, Shu Baizhu, do you dare to say that you don't know? Qin Yuhuan is kind to you because you are also a woman, and she can empathize with your difficulties. What about you?"
If it was Shu Baizhu who got into trouble that day, both Ziyi and Qin Yuhuan would have spared no efforts to save him.
"I simply can't figure out what you're trying to redeem. You said you love me. Do you love me for adapting to your schedule, visiting you in the middle of the night, sitting for two hours and then leaving? Do you love me for giving your family resources so that you can be free from their annoyance and constraints and be free to do what you want in the entertainment industry? Or do you love me for smiling at you again and again when you treated me coldly?"
"I don't understand what your love is like. I loved you before, so I was willing to fulfill your wishes without asking for anything in return. But now that you love me, you force me to go against my nature and break up with you again and again, destroying the beautiful memories you once left me. Is this your love?"
Ziyi didn't hate Shu Baizhu for not loving her, but she hated her belated love. It was already late, and it was going to destroy the few beautiful things left in her memory.
You have to force two people into a situation where they can't take care of each other.
"Did you hear clearly?" Ziyi bent down to grab Shu Baizhu's hand, forcing her to look at her.
When their eyes met, those brilliant smiles seemed to flow before Shu Baizhu's eyes like a movie.
"Happy birthday, Shu Baizhu! I brought you a small cake, it's said to be delicious!"
"It's over. The cake seems to have melted."
At that time, Xiaozi was full of regret, like a child who had done something wrong, but before she could say any words of comfort, Ziyi had already cheered up and said, "I'll go order another one, and it will be delivered soon."
