Seeing these words, my restless heart gradually calmed down. I picked up the phone again and pressed the redial button.
The moment the phone was connected, I heard my girlfriend's breathless voice.
"Alex, isn't today the weekend? Why did you get up so early to call me?" There was a hint of confusion in her voice.
I told her I couldn't sleep and asked her what she was doing.
"Me? I'm climbing a mountain. The mountain is so high that I'm almost exhausted... I'm not going to say any more. I'm hanging up first." She said hurriedly and hung up the phone.
After she hung up the phone, I felt calmer. I tapped the screen of my phone and blocked all my girlfriend's phone and WeChat accounts, then breathed a sigh of relief. I put out the remaining cigarette and fell asleep. I slept very soundly until about five in the afternoon, when I was awakened by a rapid knock on the door.
I walked over to open the door with my messy hair, and standing outside was my girlfriend Lily Davis and her male best friend Tom.
As soon as we met, Lily Davis angrily questioned me: "Alex, are you crazy? Why did you block me? I can't get through on the phone, and the door is locked?"
Tom looked at me with a meaningful look, which revealed contempt and disdain.
I pretended not to see their expressions, took a deep breath, and said coldly: "Lily Davis, let's break up."
This was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Lily Davis stunned on the spot.
" Alex , is your brain stuck in the door? We are getting married next Sunday, and the invitations have already been sent out. You are breaking up with me now?" She shouted in disbelief.
"If you didn't hear me clearly, I can say it again." I looked at her expressionlessly, "Lily Davis, let's break up. I don't want to marry you anymore. If you want freedom, I will give you enough freedom."
"I will explain to my relatives and friends. I will cancel the banquet and float master of ceremonies that have been booked tomorrow. As for your parents' relatives, please go and talk to them yourself. I will not participate. I don't know any of them anyway." I finished speaking in one breath. Lily Davis was stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly exploded.
" Okay, Alex , you were the one who knelt down to propose to me, and now you are also the one who regrets the engagement. You are playing me, Lily Davis, for a fool, right? You said you would get married, and you said you would not get married. Are you the king of the world?" she shouted angrily.
"No matter what happens today, you have to give me an explanation, otherwise..." Before she finished her words, I closed the door.
Lily Davis was banging on the door outside, but I put on my Bluetooth headphones, turned up the volume, and listened to Jay Chou's "Dear North".
After a while, the pounding sound disappeared, and the faint sound of crying and Tom's comforting voice could be heard outside.
"Xiao Yan, I've said it before, you two are not suitable for each other. Alex is unreliable at first glance." Tom 's voice came.
" This kind of stupid man deserves to be single for life." He continued.
"Let's go. We're exhausted today. Let's go to my house and rest for a night first." After Tom finished speaking, the footsteps of the two gradually faded away.
