The Aftermath of Having Slept with the Villain
Chapter 237: Her deskmate (06)World Eight. Her deskmate (06)
Su Xiangnan agreed to meet Xue Yu.
Through a layer of glass, Xue Yu looked at the man.
His hair was cut short, and the facial features on the thin face with a thin layer of black lining were more prominent, especially the once pair of black eyes with single eyelids and the long eyelashes that could not suppress the light flowing in them.
Once bright, now dull.
But it was still the same dark color, as if it has never been tempered by the years, as always.
Xue Yu suddenly felt her nose soured.
She picked up the microphone beside her.
Su Xiangnan followed suit.
The two looked at each other silently for a while.Xue Yu’s lips moved, but she couldn’t make a sound several times, and finally she decided to call him by his name.
“Su Xiangnan.”
After a while, a low voice came from the opposite side.
“Mmm.”
At that moment, Xue Yu suddenly had the urge to cry.
But the eyes were very dry, and the surging emotions in her heart were like boiled water tightly blocked in a glass jar. No matter how long it was baked on the fire, it may burst soon, but it will never break through that barrier.
Something has changed.
But a lot hasn’t changed.
What has changed is the person, what has not changed is the emotion.
Xue Yu’s red lips parted, but Su Xiangnan stopped the conversation before she could speak.
“Live a good life.”
“Don’t remember me anymore.”
The man’s mature voice was a bit rougher than when he was a teenager, with a hint of laziness.
The voice coming out of the microphone scratched her eardrums, shook her chest, and tore her heart. Unknowingly, the tears that had just accumulated in Xue Yu’s eyes evaporated as if they had been exposed to the sun.
Always like this.
Even before, between she and Su Xiangnan, there was always this little difference.
Xue Yu’s fingers involuntarily wrapped around the phone cord.
No one spoke between them, only the sound of each other’s breathing, one high and one low, one sharp and one heavy, as if they were in harmony, but there was no intersection.
The time of the meeting was coming to an end.
In the end, Xue Yu finally dropped the word, drawing an unnecessary period between the two of them.
“Okay.”
On the day the verdict was executed, Xue Yu and Huang Yan Zhi traveled to the Northeast China.
In the following year, the two discussed marriage.
Another year later, their first child was born.
Xue Yu and Huang Yan Zhi were known as a model couple in their neighborhood, and they had three children together. The relationship between husband and wife was stable and their lives were happy. With Xue Yu becoming the editor-in-chief and busy with work, Huang Yan Zhi’s official rank also rose higher and higher. The two were still honest with each other, never angry, never quarreled. Whether in the eyes of friends or children, they were the most loving couple.
Xue Yu admitted to having a clear conscience throughout her life.
Whether as a subordinate, a boss, a wife, a mother, or a daughter, she dedicated to doing her best.
Except for a secret hidden in her heart.
Every year on Su Xiangnan’s death day, she would always find an excuse to travel to the cemetery in the next city to pray for Su Xiangnan.
The photo on Su Xiangnan’s tombstone was chosen by Xue Yu.
A passport photo.
It was a photo pasted on Su Xiangnan’s high school student ID card. In the midst of his youth, his eyebrows were clean, his eyes were deep, and he looked at the camera with a faint smile.
After looking at it quietly for a long while, Xue Yu knelt down and placed a bouquet of flowers on the platform, then with trembling fingers, she caressed the words engraved on it, and finally said softly: “Although I have not forgotten you , I have a good life.”
“Su Xiangnan, in fact, there are still many beautiful things in the world.”
“If you have a chance, open your eyes and take a closer look.”
“Take a look at this world that changes every day, take a look at me who is trying to live in this world that changes every day, but dare not forget you no matter what.”
“If you have a chance, you can take a look.”

Xue Yu walked in front of Huang Yan Zhi.
By the hospital bed, her children were wrapped around her knees, and several small children were hugged by adults, their eyes were red from crying.
After Xue Yu finished talking to them one by one, she reached out and held her husband’s hand.
The years have left trail of marks on Huang Yan Zhi’s face, but his eyes were looking at her with the same resoluteness as before. Xue Yu thought that the most correct thing she had done in her life was having such a husband, so that her parents could feel at ease, so that she could be at ease. He was her most solid backing, tolerating all her shortcomings, supporting a world with his shoulders, so that Xue Yu could do what she wanted to do and live the life she wanted to live without any worries.
“Ah Zhi.” She called out to her husband, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. “Thank you.”
You are the last bit of luck in my life.
If there is a next life, I hope you can keep all your luck yourself and love someone more worthy of your love.
Xue Yu passed away in her prime.
This was a rare occurence in her missions.
Xue Xue asked the system, and the system gave the answer: “According to the words of your human world, Xue Yu is probably the so-called ten generations of good people, so although she cannot change Su Xiangnan’s fate, her own fate was spared from being affected by Su Xiangnan.”
Hearing this explanation, Xue Xue responded noncommittally, and finally said softly.
“She never let go of Su Xiangnan.”
The love of youth, the last side of adulthood, the three words ‘Su Xiang Nan’ have already become the obsession engraved in Xue Yu’s bones.
It was not that she didn’t think it would be better to just forget about it, but she found that if even she forgot about him, then people in this world would probably only remember the criminal Su Xiangnan, but not the one who used to occupy the first place in the grade list for many years, once broke the long-distance running record of the Affiliated Middle school, and the Su Xiangnan, who was once regarded as the dream lover by all the girls in the school.
Xue Yu couldn’t bear to part with it in the end.
She would rather Su Xiangnan be with other people than Su Xiangnan being forgotten by everyone.
So in the end, she compromised.
System: “Yes, but she is very happy with her marriage and family.”
Hearing this, Xue Xue made no comment.
Things like feelings are like people drinking water, aware whether it is warm or cold by themselves.
She only cares about one thing.
Xue Xue: “Mission requirements?”
System: “The client has only one request, and she hopes that Su Xiangnan can avoid going astray and live a smooth life.”
Xue Xue: “Okay.”
System: “Kind reminder, the mission target is already approaching.”
