Gorgeous Female Tenants

Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Can a Broken Mirror Be Made Whole Again?

Song Yuting’s eyes brimmed with tears, and she forced a smile, saying, "If that night four years ago, we had just gone through it, do you think we would have broken up?"

This seemed like a tough question. Xu Xiangbei thought for a moment, shook his head, and replied in confusion, "I was thinking just last night, we would end up like four years ago, where nothing would happen. Who knows... maybe this is fate."

Xu Xiangbei didn’t drive into the school but parked on the roadside. Before Song Yuting got out of the car, she leaned over and gently kissed him on the cheek.

Feeling Song Yuting’s soft, warm lips, with a slight tremble, suddenly Xu Xiangbei felt droplets on his face. They landed right at the corner of his mouth, salty and warm, they were Song Yuting’s tears.

He gently closed his eyes and said only one word, "Goodbye."

A thud from the closing door was heard as Song Yuting got out of the car. She hurriedly ran towards the school. Watching Song Yuting’s unsteady, slender figure, he felt his eyes turn moist as well.

A broken mirror cannot be repaired, not because he was heartless, but because time changes, and their feelings changed, everything changes. Rekindling old flames is a movie plot, a heart deeply wounded, people gone, like petals blown away by the wind, only falling in dreams.

Four years ago, Song Yuting left him to attend her dream university, to pursue her bright, sunny life goals, while he stayed in the small county to live his life. From then on, their lives would never intersect again.

He forced himself to forget everything. Who knew fate would play a trick on them, bringing them together again and causing something to happen that shouldn’t have.

Listening to the increasingly distant roar of Xu Xiangbei’s Porsche engine, gazing at the silver streak disappearing into the traffic, Song Yuting felt full of melancholy, and her tears quietly fell.

Such familiar emotions, such similar scenes.

Four years ago, she was sitting in a train carriage, gazing out the window, hoping to see Xu Xiangbei’s silhouette on the platform, grabbing her hand and begging her not to leave.

As tree after tree, house after house flashed by quickly, her vision grew blurry because her eyes were filled with tears.

The heart that was hurt before gets hurt again, but the pain was no longer so intense.

Wiping away the tears, she forced a mocking smile, tossed her long hair and strode into the school gate.

"Ting Ting, you finally came. I’ve been calling you but your phone was off. I thought you eloped with Dr. Xu. How are your eyes? Wow, red and swollen, goodness, so pitiful."

Song Yuting’s face turned slightly red. Her eyes were red and swollen not from being hit last night, but from crying. After applying medicine last night, by this morning, the injury was basically healed.

She turned off her phone before sleeping last night, and because she was too confused this morning, she forgot to turn it on.

She smiled bitterly, "I forgot to turn it on."

Xiao Qing made a face, "You don’t need to turn it on anyway, class is starting soon."

Song Yuting awkwardly smiled, turned on her phone, set it to silent, and a trace of desolation flashed in her eyes. She forced a smile on her face, "Let’s go, let’s head to class."

With a quirky look, Xiao Qing mysteriously asked Song Yuting, "Did you guys rent a room together last night?"

Knowing Xiao Qing’s overflowing curiosity, this girl would dig for insider information. The fact that she and Xu Xiangbei rented a room must not be revealed to her. Otherwise, within days, rumors would be everywhere.

Song Yuting held up her phone to Xiao Qing’s face, with a disdainful, cold smile, "We booked a room, but it was two standard rooms. Once at the hotel, we returned to our own rooms; nothing happened. Sorry if that disappoints you. Want to call and verify with Xu Xiangbei?"

Hearing Song Yuting mention two standard rooms, Xiao Qing didn’t believe it. Reluctantly, she observed Song Yuting’s expression, hoping to find a flaw.

Unfortunately, Song Yuting hid it perfectly, always maintaining a faint smile on her face, "Xiao Qing, is there something on my face that you’re staring at? Silly girl, listen to the lecture. Graduation exams are coming. Don’t you want to graduate?"

Xiao Qing could only sheepishly respond, "Hehe, I was just checking if your makeup had smudged."

"You’re saying one thing but mean another, you know I never wear makeup during class."

Although Song Yuting sat in the classroom, her mind was elsewhere. Last night Xu Xiangbei drank too much, not remembering the stormy details, but she remembered vividly.

Every kiss, every touch, every move of his was deeply imprinted in her heart.

Thinking about that scene, Song Yuting felt shy and excited. Her cheeks couldn’t help but flush, her heart was pounding, and she couldn’t stop herself from stupidly smiling with happiness.

The pain after the joy, Xu Xiangbei’s heartlessness, made her eyes moist again, with tears constantly brimming.

She was anxious, troubled, repeatedly pulling out her phone from her pocket, checking for any calls from Xu Xiangbei.

The whole morning passed, and there wasn’t even a message. She wondered if her phone was broken.

She was secretly annoyed, that stupid guy, not a single call, does he really not care about what happened last night? What does he take me for?

Xiao Qing, being a clever girl, saw Song Yuting restless, sometimes smiling foolishly, sometimes crying stupidly. She couldn’t help but shake her head, with a sympathetic look. No need to ask, Ting Ting was in love, rekindling old flames.

On the way back to the dormitory, she snickered, "Hey, Ting Ting, last night with Dr. Xu, really nothing happened? Don’t lie to me, your eyes have already given you away."

"Don’t talk nonsense, nothing happened between him and me."

Suddenly, Sun Ze ran over, out of breath, and upon seeing Song Yuting, said with a mischievous smile, "Haha, Song Yuting, your old classmate came to see you and brought a big bouquet of beautiful flowers. Lucky I didn’t date you, or I’d die of jealousy. I can’t compete with your old classmate’s handsomeness."

Hearing that an old classmate had come with flowers made the sullen Song Yuting show a surprised smile. It must be Xu Xiangbei. He hadn’t truly forgotten her.

She eagerly ran towards the dormitory, with Xiao Qing chasing breathlessly behind her, "Slow down, don’t run so fast, truly ditching friends for love, you don’t need buddies if there’s a man."

Underneath the girls’ dormitory, stood a man in a suit, tall and imposing with his back to her, holding a big bouquet of purple roses. Even from a distance, the faint scent of roses could be smelled.

Song Yuting tightly gripped the hem of her checkered dress, flicked back her long, waterfall-like black hair, and like a little girl, her cheeks reddened as she suppressed the excitement and shyness in her heart, and laughed, "What are you doing? We’re old classmates and you’re bringing so many flowers. Next time, just treat me to a meal instead of giving flowers."
