No Girl Can Walk Away Smiling After Checking Her Boyfriend's Phone - Chapter 4
“I’ve been too busy with work lately, didn’t notice.” Jiang Ling’s voice pulled me back from my thoughts.
I didn’t know when he had sat down on the edge of the bed, adjusting the blanket for me, a hint of guilt in his eyes, “It won’t happen next time.”
I was still holding his phone, unable to resist asking, “Is it just because of work?”
“I really have nothing with Zhou Xuan.”
He took a cigarette from the drawer and lit it, his tone full of exhaustion.
I said nothing, handing him the chat record I had just flipped through.
The time was three days ago, Zhou Xuan seemed to have gotten drunk and sent Jiang Ling a WeChat message in the middle of the night,
“If you didn’t have a girlfriend, would you like me?”
Jiang Ling replied with just one word: “Yes.”
Seeing this conversation, Jiang Ling froze.
After a moment of silence, he extinguished the cigarette butt and looked up at me,
“I told you she’s just a colleague, and I’ve promised nothing will happen with her in the future, isn’t that enough?”
As he said this, there was no expression on his face, but the disappointment and blame in his voice were unmistakable.
At that moment, I realized I might not know this person at all.
