Chapter 211 Collapse
Hearing this, Lin Hao felt somewhat speechless and directly said, "What the hell are you thinking? How could I possibly be interested in you? I definitely like women."
Lin Hao just sighed and patted Lin Jie's shoulder, "Actually, it was just a misunderstanding. It's not a big deal, just explain it clearly. After all, those cups and toothbrushes can't be evidence to prove that we are that."
"But the way you knocked me down just now might make her think that we are."
Hearing this, Lin Jie immediately panicked, "What should I do now? It's over, I lost a girlfriend just like that!"
Lin Hao heard this and simply replied, "This isn't just your issue; I like women too. Why didn't you tell me before you came back? If I knew your girlfriend was coming back with you, I wouldn't have come back and would've given you two some space to be alone."
As Lin Hao spoke, Lin Jie looked at him and said, "You! If it weren't for you wanting to buy cheaper stuff, to save money on couple towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and all that, none of this would've happened. Now look, I have to go explain to her. That girl's way of thinking is anything but ordinary. I don't even know how to start!"
Lin Jie spoke, feeling agitated.
Upon hearing this, Lin Hao immediately shook his shoulders, "Brother! I really owe you an apology for this one. Hurry and go after her."
Lin Jie nodded at these words, took his phone, and made a call to Qin Xiaoxu. Qin Xiaoxu didn't pick up, so he sent a WeChat message, but there was no reply either.
Only then did Lin Jie realize the gravity of the situation. Qin Xiaoxu really misunderstood. He immediately ran to the elevator and, by the time he was out of the residential complex, he could no longer see Qin Xiaoxu.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoxu was already gone.
Lin Jie ran out only to see no one around, feeling as if he had fallen into an icy pit, muttering while clutching his hair.
"It's over! It's really over..."
Seeing him like this, Lin Hao patted his shoulder and said, "Brother, I'm really sorry. I will definitely help you explain to your girlfriend later."
Meanwhile, Qin Xiaoxu walked on the road, feeling extremely troubled. She shouldn't have come to Lin Jie's home.
No, it was right to come to Lin Jie's home. That was the only way she could see Lin Jie for who he really was!
Poor me, I almost became a 'tongqi'!
Qin Xiaoxu sighed and immediately made a call. It was to Han Xuewei.
She was used to calling Han Xuewei whenever something happened. As soon as the call connected, she blurted out, "Vivi, I'm doomed! My romance hadn't even started, and I'm already heading towards a breakup. Lin Jie is totally unreliable; I'm going to break up with him. He's gone too far. He actually turned out to be gay.
I must break up with him!"
"When I went to his house just now, I saw there was another man there. How could he do such a thing? How could he deceive me? He's too much, really too much..."
Qin Xiaoxu said this, and when Han Xuewei on the other side understood, she showed a look of astonishment and couldn't help saying, "How is that possible? How could he possibly be gay, he is Lin Yi's cousin, and Lin Yi would definitely know about this. You must have misunderstood him!"
Hearing this, Qin Xiaoxu shook her head helplessly and said, "It's impossible. I just saw it with my own eyes. When I was using the restroom, I saw that almost all of their toiletries were couple's items!"
"And that Lin Hao, he even fed Lin Jie food, he did it so skillfully and naturally, and then he helped Lin Jie do the laundry, and Lin Jie didn't think it was a big deal. These are things that only a girlfriend would do, okay. Right, right, there's something even more explosive.
I was about to leave, I hadn't taken my bag, and then I turned back to get my bag, and they couldn't wait to throw themselves at each other, they threw themselves at each other!!" Read exclusive adventures at empire
"I saw it all with my own eyes. Otherwise, I would still be kept in the dark, about to become someone else's beard, a pitiful beard, Vivi, I'm so miserable, it hurts so much to go through another breakup!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As Qin Xiaoxu spoke, she started sobbing.
Hearing this, Han Xuewei panicked and immediately said, "Xiaoxu, there must be some misunderstanding. It's impossible for Lin Jie to be gay, I can't tell at all. Stop crying. When Lin Yi comes over, I will ask him, and then talk to Lin Jie about it. You must have misunderstood him, I think he likes you, how can he be keeping a man at home?"
While saying this, Qin Xiaoxu had already soaked through several tissues with her tears, walking down the street, crying.
Passersby were all shocked, looking over at her. Seeing the crowd around her staring, she suddenly burst out crying, "What are you looking at, haven't you seen someone go through a breakup?!"
Saying this, she quickened her pace and walked forward.
She readjusted her mental state. Now, she hailed a car using an APP on her phone, and when she got into the car, messages were still popping up incessantly, and calls kept coming in.
Qin Xiaoxu, at this point, couldn't care less and simply hung up all those calls.
The driver in front recognized that something was off with this young lady and took a glance in the rearview mirror. Qin Xiaoxu was still crying; realizing she had caught someone's attention, she wiped away her tears, to the extent that she even turned off her phone.
By now, she didn't want to think about these things anymore; men like Lin Jie, she would never trust again. Getting close to men would only lead to unhappiness!
Thinking thus, the car quickly arrived at her rented place. When she got back, Ye Caiwei had returned. Seeing Qin Xiaoxu's dreary expression and red-rimmed eyes, Ye Caiwei instantly became worried and hurried over to Qin Xiaoxu.
"What's the matter, Xiaoxu? Did someone bully you, or is it your boyfriend?"
Ye Caiwei was very concerned. Hearing this, Qin Xiaoxu burst into tears, hugged Ye Caiwei tightly, and said, "Caiwei, you have no idea how terrible my day has been. That Lin Jie—he's gay. I just saw him keeping another man at home…"
As she said this, she started crying again. Hearing this, Ye Caiwei was flabbergasted, her expression one of shock, doubting that she had heard correctly.
"That's impossible, the day before yesterday when you told me about him, he didn't sound like he was gay at all. Don't scare yourself."
Qin Xiaoxu tried to calm down for a moment, then sat down on the couch and said, "I saw in their bathroom, those couple's towels and toothbrushes. He said they were on sale at the supermarket so I just believed him, but all their behavior indicates that they are very intimate—those are things only a couple would do…"
"Plus, as I was leaving, I saw them throwing themselves at each other, face to face, almost kissing!!" Qin Xiaoxu was on the verge of breaking down.
