Chapter 2 Love and Bread

Looking at the sweet girl in the photo, although Li Zhiyang had already let go of this relationship, he was still sad. After all, Ma Ting was his first woman. It was her who made him turn from a boy to a man, and it was her who left the first deep scratch in her life.

Ma Ting is a girl who came to Jiangcheng. She is beautiful and scheming. She likes watching Hong Kong TVB Hong Kong dramas, and she likes the lifestyle of performances. She likes the life attitudes of the petty-bourgeois men and women in TV dramas, especially the bullshit gentlemanly demeanor of men to women. So in reality, she often teaches Li Zhiyang to have some gentlemanly demeanor towards women, and often likes to drag Li Zhiyang to eat Western food, drink coffee and watch movies, and likes to create some romance.

The atmosphere and the like, in short, this girl is very bourgeois, and it can be said that it is hypocritical. Li Zhiyang hates these foolish tricks, but in order to pursue Ma Ting, he still tried his best to cater to Ma Ting's request at school. In fact, he is not interested in her theory. He thinks that the girl is too poisonous to TVB, and those Hong Kong-style lifestyles and men's attitudes towards women only exist on TV. However, she was really good to Li Zhiyang at that time, and Li Zhiyang still likes her very much.

In fact, in his previous life, he had a premonition about the crisis of this relationship. The two graduated from school in July 2005 and came to Beijing to take root. Li Zhiyang signed directly to work in this foreign company at a job fair, and Ma Ting didn't find her current job in Beijing until September last year. Ma Ting worked as a secretary translator in a foreign company operating luxury goods in Guomao. When she first joined the company, her salary was more than 2,000 yuan, but now it has increased to more than 5,000 yuan. Her salary has increased like a rocket, and she earned more than twice as much as Li Zhiyang.

Recently, she has taken back some famous brand clothing, cosmetics, and frequent business trips and socializing. Sometimes when she comes back, it's already late at night and still smells of alcohol. How could Li Zhiyang not know about these changes? She has a Cartier diamond ring on her hand, a Swarovski crystal necklace on her neck, a Lancome perfume sprayed on her body, and a Gucci suit she wears. How could these changes be hidden from his eyes? These precious accessories and clothes are not something he can afford, and any one is enough for him to earn from not eating or drinking for a year. And she often doesn't go home late at night recently, so how could Li Zhiyang be suspicious? He actually knew that a vice president of their company was pursuing her enthusiastically. She didn't come back this weekend, and he felt something was wrong at that time.

But at that time he was like an ostrich burying his head in the sand. He didn't believe that she would abandon them for four years of love together. He firmly believed in their oath when they were together. But the dream was shattered in the face of reality. Love could not beat bread after all. Ma Ting finally left him, threw herself into the arms of the vice president, became a mistress for others, and he moved out of here in a down-and-out manner. He moved to rent a house near Huilongguan, and left the current company, completely cut off contact with her. Later, he heard some news about her from other classmates in Beijing. Later, she got rid of the person after getting tired of playing. She also got a lot of money, a house, a car, and a lot of savings, but she was not happy. She also wanted to ask about his news from other classmates, but with his insistence, the classmates did not reveal his news to her.

The rain was getting heavier outside, but it would not last long, and it would stop at about a little while. Four years ago, Ma Ting would call him the last call and ask if he was at home. After Dezhi was at work, she would go home in the afternoon to move her things away, and leave him a breakup letter.

As the time on the phone moved towards 13 o'clock little by little, the rainy night outside became smaller and smaller, Li Zhiyang became more and more confused. After all, four years of love.

Li Zhiyang took out a pack of Red River from his pants pocket. He started smoking this cigarette for three years in college, and with his financial conditions, he could only smoke this one. However, after Ma Ting's coercion, he picked it up again recently. He always smoked a few when Ma Ting was not home at night, but it was not very satisfying.

He lit one, and the image of himself in the mirror began to blur under the smoke. Li Zhiyang, who was upset, turned on the TV. There was Jacky Cheung's concert on the TV. "Buzz, buzz, buzz." Nokia 3310 began to shake desperately on the table of the dressing table. What was coming was coming. Li Zhiyang mutes the TV.

"Hey." Li Zhiyang answered the phone, but did not speak, his voice became much colder.

"Hey..." He said hello on the phone, but fell into silence.

"What's wrong?" Li Zhiyang's voice was cold.

"Where are you going to work?" Ma Ting's voice returned to normal.

"Yeah, is there anything wrong?" Li Zhiyang had already made a decision in his heart.

"Oh! Nothing, just ask."

"Do you have something to tell me?"

This time he decided not to escape anymore, and the phone fell into silence for a long time. After a long time, Ma Ting finally started talking.

"I think there was something wrong with us. I'm very annoyed recently, so I want to move out and live for a while and think about some problems alone. Let's separate for a while?" Ma Ting's voice began to tremble, but later became more and more determined.

What's the problem with TMD? I don't have money to let you enjoy it. Just calm down and think about it. Are you going to join your lover? It's time to lie to me? If you want to break up, just say it, why are you doing so tactful? Those who don't know think I'm treating you? When Li Zhiyang thought of these, he couldn't help but feel angry and never want to talk nonsense with this hypocritical woman again.

"Is that right? Come here quickly to move your stuff away that afternoon and leave the key." I almost couldn't help but mock her, but when I thought there was no need to waste my mouth with her, after just a few harsh words, Li Zhiyang felt relieved.

There was another silence on the other side of the phone. Obviously, Ma Ting could not have thought that Li Zhiyang would be so utterly speaking. There was no sound on the other side of the phone. Li Zhiyang was a little annoyed. Why did I want me to comfort you a few words, as if you were still a victim? At this time, I still want me to promote my demeanor? Get out of here quickly, but when I remember the sweetness of the two of them together and the kindness of Ma Ting to him, Li Zhiyang still felt soft-hearted.

"Okay, don't say much. Thank you for your company over the past few years. I won't say anything about blessings. That seems too fake. We can get together and part. You can go and collect everything in the afternoon, don't leave it behind. If you have any difficulties in the future, find me at any time. Let's... just do that."

When Li Zhiyang said the word "we", his voice was still trembling. At this time, a sob sound had already been heard from the other side of the phone. After saying that, Li Zhiyang quickly hung up the phone. However, he found that at some point, tears had already been hung up on his face. This time he was completely relieved. He felt so quiet that he canceled the silence of the TV. The God of Songs was singing intoxicatedly on the TV.
