Chapter 376: 368. Dating or studying? (3)

Zhu Dandan’s mood had been really poor recently.

The way she loved Wang Chao, it all ended with their formal breakup.

And Wang Chao didn’t even look for reconciling with her...

Various situations had Zhu Dandan deeply stuck in emotional pain...

The normally cheerful Zhu Dandan fell silent for several days and finally, unable to contain her distress, came looking for Pu Sangzhi on a Sunday morning, carrying her backpack.

When Zhu Dandan arrived, Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng were busy doing household chores.

Pu Sangzhi was wiping the furniture and Huo Feng was sweeping the floor, their intimate movements portraying a sweet picture together.

This made Zhu Dandan, standing at the doorstep of Pu Sangzhi’s house, become lost in thought...

Later, it was only when Pu Sangzhi was about to wash the rag that she finally noticed Zhu Dandan!

"Dandan!" Pu Sangzhi exclaimed.

In the living room, Huo Feng, broom in hand, also turned around and immediately saw Zhu Dandan standing at the doorway, small in stature and shouldering a backpack.

Zhu Dandan was clearly in a poor emotional state today, evident from her red, swollen eyes.

"Dandan, why did you suddenly come?"

Pu Sangzhi, puzzled, walked towards Zhu Dandan, and just two steps away from her, Zhu Dandan suddenly lunged forward and wrapped her arms around Pu Sangzhi.

After embracing Pu Sangzhi, Zhu Dandan could no longer hold back and started sobbing softly, plaintively calling out Pu Sangzhi’s name, "Sangzhi... Sangzhi..."

"I’m here..."

Pu Sangzhi quickly patted Zhu Dandan’s back gently, soothingly whispering, "What’s wrong? Don’t cry, it’s okay..."

"Sangzhi, sob..."

Zhu Dandan quickly broke down into tears, crying louder, plunged into a state of immense grief!

This emotional outbreak left both Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng at a loss.

Pu Sangzhi could only pat Zhu Dandan’s back softly, doing her best to comfort her, "What’s wrong? Is it because of the breakup? Just because you broke up with Wang Chao?"

"Sob sob sob..."

Zhu Dandan cried her heart out, her eyes red and tears streaming, looking particularly aggrieved.

Huo Feng walked over from the living room, casually picked up a tissue from the coffee table, and handed it to Zhu Dandan.

Zhu Dandan took the tissue Huo Feng offered and continued to cry into Pu Sangzhi’s embrace while wiping her tears.

At this moment, she looked pitiful.

...15 minutes later...

Zhu Dandan’s emotions finally calmed down a bit.

Pu Sangzhi took Zhu Dandan into her room, Huo Feng followed them in, and they locked the door, with just the three of them inside the room.

Zhu Dandan cried with a runny nose and tears, occasionally wiping them with a tissue, her sobs causing her chest to heave. She looked truly pitiable.

Pu Sangzhi somewhat understood Zhu Dandan’s feelings.

Because previously, during a misunderstanding with Huo Feng, she had cried just as hard as Zhu Dandan was now.

In the world of love, girls often get hurt easily, always the more deeply invested side.

Of course, Pu Sangzhi thought she might be an exception.

Because, in her world with Huo Feng, she still thought Huo Feng cared more about her than anyone else.

Zhu Dandan’s tears subsided after a while, and finally, as her emotions adjusted slightly, she started talking intermittently about her and Wang Chao’s relationship.

She said, "He was really too much... he never cared about me... I suggested breaking up just to test him, to see his attitude... and he agreed so quickly... I had seen it already, he was not serious, he didn’t regard me at all... I was so foolish, I thought he would treat me well..."

Zhu Dandan’s relationship with Wang Chao had started so abruptly that Pu Sangzhi had never really approved of it.

They hadn’t been together long before they broke up.

Pu Sangzhi handed Zhu Dandan a glass of water, unsure of how to comfort her, so she could only say, "Alright. Since it’s over, let’s consider it the past. Don’t take this kind of thing too seriously, the most important thing for us students is to study."

"Tch..."

Nearby, Huo Feng, hearing her words, couldn’t help but express his disdain, "How come you’re always talking about studying? She’s heartbroken, and you tell her to study?"

Pu Sangzhi glanced sideways at Huo Feng, "High school students shouldn’t be dating in the first place. It’s precisely because it’s easy to get hurt and it also affects studies. Now that they’ve broken up, isn’t it just perfect? There’s nothing to worry about, and you can fully concentrate on studying."

"Look at you..."

Huo Feng tapped the desk, "Three sentences in and it’s study, study, study! You’re completely lacking any teenage girl’s sentiment!"

Pu Sangzhi narrowed her eyes, "I don’t want to argue with you. Either you comfort Dandan, or I’ll keep quiet."

Huo Feng gave her a ’watch-me-do-better-than-you-in-comforting-her’ look, then immediately said to Zhu Dandan, "Dandan, I just talked to Wang Chao yesterday."

Zhu Dandan’s eyes, red and swollen, fixed on Huo Feng, "What... what did he say?"

Huo Feng spoke bluntly, "He said that when he’s with you, you always get angry, and he doesn’t know what upsets you. Every time he pacifies you, and pacifying too often has tired him, so this time when you got angry, he didn’t know how to appease you. Now he’s also angry at you and has no plans to appease you."

"What does he have to be angry about!"

Zhu Dandan shouted, then her voice slowly softened, "Clearly, it’s because he has low EQ. He doesn’t care about me at all... I’ve told him many times that we need to date more, and he should take the initiative to contact me more... Either he doesn’t contact me, or he is late for our dates... Everyday there is something that irritates me, I can’t just not get upset!"

"It’s Wang Chao’s first love. You should try to understand him a bit."

Huo Feng stared at Zhu Dandan, advising her, "Guys like him, who have never been in a relationship and don’t study how to be in one, generally have low EQ. Since you chose him, you have to accept his flaws. Like me, once I settled on Sangzhi, even if Sangzhi treats me like dirt, I still stick to her every day. And honestly, I don’t mind at all.""

On the side, Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but interrupt to refute, "I didn’t treat you like dirt, don’t make me sound so terrible."

Huo Feng, "I’m talking to Dandan, mind not interrupting, thanks."

Pu Sangzhi, "..."

Zhu Dandan pouted, "But it’s also my first time in a relationship. I don’t have any experience either... So, shouldn’t we both be growing together? It can’t always be me accommodating him..."

"No one said you have to accommodate him all the time. Doesn’t he accommodate you in some ways too?"

Huo Feng persuaded, "He accommodates you in some areas, so you should also accommodate him in certain areas. Plainly said, both of you got together too quickly, and your personalities haven’t adjusted to each other yet. So, if you two want to be together, there is inevitably a period of adjustment. If you can’t get through this adjustment period, then it’s over! But if you get past it, then you can run a long race for many years without major issues."

"This point, you can take a cue from me and Sangzhi..."

Huo Feng immediately took Pu Sangzhi’s hand and boasted to Zhu Dandan, "When Sangzhi and I started adjusting, she was always thinking of rejecting me! I persisted through that period for a long time... You saw my trials and tribulations! Once I got through that period, now it’s Sangzhi who can’t stay away from me."

Pu Sangzhi was utterly disgusted by what Huo Feng said, she could hardly keep listening, "Hey, don’t mislead Dandan. Just directly ask Dandan, do you still want to continue with Wang Chao or not?"

Huo Feng took over, "Yeah, do you still want to continue with Wang Chao?"

Zhu Dandan pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, "I don’t know..."

Pu Sangzhi said, "Then don’t continue. There’s nothing good about dating, just focus on your studies."

Huo Feng said, "Don’t listen to Sangzhi. Listen to me, follow your heart, if you want to continue, then go find him. If not, then seriously study, improve every day."

Zhu Dandan pouted, "I don’t know."

Huo Feng, "Okay, not knowing means you’re considering it. Since you’re still thinking about Wang Chao, I can help you connect with him."

Zhu Dandan, "But I really don’t know..."

Huo Feng then said, "Tonight, I’ll have him call you, you need to remove his number from the block list. Can you do that?"

Zhu Dandan was silent for a while, "I don’t know..."

Huo Feng, "Then here’s your chance. I’ll have him call you, and if you want to reconcile, remove his number from the block list. If not, keep it blocked. Think it over, decide yourself."

Zhu Dandan was silent for two more minutes before responding, "Oh..."

Pu Sangzhi said to Zhu Dandan, "Think carefully, Dandan. There’s nothing good about dating."

Huo Feng also said, "Yes, think it over. Wang Chao treats you quite well..."

Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng, one advocating for a breakup, the other for staying together... They really put Zhu Dandan in a difficult spot!
