Chapter 187 Ji Li 41
"What are you thinking about?" While Tan You and Ji Li were talking, Xu Liang's voice suddenly sounded.

Tan You came back to her senses and glanced at the villagers: "I was thinking...it's great to be like this now."

As soon as Ji Li came back, Tan You could completely relax. In the final analysis, those are her family members, and Ji Li has to face them by herself. Thinking of this, Tan You immediately exchanged body control with Ji Li.

After regaining control of her body, the first thing Ji Li did was not talk to Xu Liang. Instead, she took out her phone and turned on the camera to look left and right. She had already seen her face just now, but she still wanted to see it again in the mirror.

"You are already very beautiful. I have never seen you staring at the camera before." Xu Liang looked at it for two minutes and couldn't stand it anymore.

Ji Li's hand paused, and then she smiled slightly: "Well, I just suddenly realized that I am so beautiful now."

Xu Liang said matter-of-factly: "You have always been beautiful. From the time I saw you to now, you have always been beautiful."

Ji Li's smile faded a bit: "I...wasn't this beautiful before."

Xu Liang: "Are you talking about those photos of you in the past? In fact, your skin is darker and rougher, and your complexion is not good enough, but you are still pretty when you dress up well."

"No wonder they say that women undergo a transformation. You have really changed a lot. It's like you grew up overnight."

Ji Li didn't expect that Xu Liang would even find this reason for her, and a clear smile appeared in his eyes immediately. Unlike Tan You, Ji Li is not a person who loves to laugh.

Tan You doesn't like to laugh either, but Ji Li seems to be colder than Tan You. If Tan You smiles, he always starts with his eyes, but Ji Li doesn't. Maybe it's because he was too miserable and had too few happy moments, so it's difficult for Ji Li to have emotional fluctuations.

Of course, it was Wen Zhe who could cause her mood swings in the past. Thinking of Wen Zhe, Ji Li put away her phone and suppressed the sourness.

Tan You was curious: "Are you still thinking of renewing your relationship with Wen Zhe?"

"No," Ji Li denied: "Now that we have made a choice and are completely separated, let us not have any more intersections. You are right, what I need is someone who can stand firmly by my side. , not like Wen Zhe.”

"It's been hard enough to have a crush on him for so many years. I don't want to keep working hard." She stretched as she said, then looked at Xu Liang: "It's almost done, let's go back?"

Xu Liang: "Let's go. Actually, it's none of our business. What are you going to do when you go back soon?"

Ji Li thought for a moment: "Let's do some house cleaning. I've been busy and haven't paid much attention to my home these days. I plan to do a thorough house cleaning."

Xu Liang: "Okay, your old house really needs to be repaired."

Ji Li thought about the deposit and was a little surprised for a moment: "I thought so too, don't people say Duan Sheli? Now I'm going to have a Duan Sheli."

After returning to the old house, Grandma Shen was alone at home. Ji Li said hello to her grandmother and went around to her room, and soon she came out holding a small box.

Xu Liang was sitting in the corridor holding a cup of tea and drinking slowly. When he saw the small box, he couldn't help but smile: "What is this? It seems to be old."

"Unimportant things." Ji Li pursed her lips and squatted down next to the charcoal stove.

Xu Liang stopped drinking tea: "Do you mind if I watch?" "Of course not, they are all things that I have decided to give up." Ji Li twitched the corners of her lips and opened the small box.

Xu Liang glanced at it, and saw that it was just a bouquet of dried flowers, a notebook, and a few other bits and pieces. There seemed to be old wristbands and buttons, and they looked like boy's things.

Ji Li glanced at these things and took the lead in picking up the bouquet of dried flowers.

"Rose? Who sent it?" Even though it had become a dried flower, Xu Liang recognized it at a glance.

"It was a gift from Wen Zhe." Ji Li put the bunch of dried flowers on the charcoal stove. Soon the dried flowers began to burn and no longer looked like they were before: "It happened to be when his third girlfriend broke up with him. On Valentine's Day, the prepared flowers were not sent out, so Wen Zhe gave them to me instead. "

Watching the dried flowers gradually burn into a pile of ashes, Ji Li looked away and picked up the notebook in the box. She didn't care about Xu Liang, but opened the notebooks and looked at them page by page.

After reading one page, he tore off a page and threw it on the charcoal stove until only the cover remained.

Xu Liang also saw a few words: "I guessed that you had a crush on him at the beginning. I have never seen you deal with these things before. Why did you do it today..."

"Maybe it's to say a complete farewell." Ji Li flicked the burning paper: "After giving up these, I can finally kick him out of my life."

She said and smiled: "I thought I would be sad, but now I realize that I am not. He is not that important to me, and I finally got out of that prison."

Notebooks, dried flowers, and things that could burn were all disposed of by Ji Li, leaving only a few scattered pieces in the end. Ji Li held the boxes and buckled them on the trash can. She felt like she had broken free from the restraints, and it seemed that nothing could restrain her anymore.

“I’m very happy to be able to handle these with my own hands and make a complete break with the past.”

Xu Liang inquired: "After so many years of secret love, did he really just give up? Didn't he break up?"

Ji Li: "We are not the same kind of people. I long for stability, but he longs for freshness. What I want is a warm little home, but he is not. He will always stop for new things outside. Our demands are inherently different."

"Even if he breaks up, even if he likes me, I won't be with him, because sooner or later we will break up." She glanced at Xu Liang: "So, let's not mention him again in the future, really Means nothing."

Xu Liang shrugged: "Okay, let's not mention it. This is the first time I've seen someone like you. You have a secret love, and only you know the pain in it."

"So I will never have a crush on anyone else in my lifetime," Ji Li also shrugged: "Just take care of yourself more. As for love, just let it happen."

Seeing Xu Liang going to drink tea again, Ji Li also held up a cup of tea: "I am very grateful that you gave me the right to deal with these things. Only when you completely gave up these things did I feel like I said goodbye to the past."

"If you don't talk about handing it over, it belongs to you," Tan You said calmly: "I have a strong sense of boundaries and will not handle other people's privacy on my behalf. I thought you would blame me for alienating Wen Zhe."

"How could it be?" Ji Li smiled a little softer: "I will only thank you for helping me make this decision. In fact, I was thinking about it later, did I really like Wen Zhe? Or was it because I had a crush on him? After all these years, he couldn’t bear the sunk cost in the end?”
