Chapter 216 I Won’t Care About You Anymore
"Lin Yuxi, why did you pull me out of the banquet? That's the most luxurious banquet in the city. Maybe I can meet my soulmate there!"
Lu Yao sat in the passenger seat, her eyes were blurry with drunkenness, and she kept complaining.
Lin Yuxi held the steering wheel and drove with an expressionless face. She was already accustomed to Lu Yao's chattering.
"You only care about men. What's so good about that party?" Lin Yuxi replied impatiently.
"Humph, you don't understand at all! There are only powerful people there. If I can hook up with one, I won't have to worry about the rest of my life." Lu Yao said while waving her arms and almost hit Lin Yuxi.
Lin Yuxi slammed on the brakes, and the car made a sharp friction sound. "Lu Yao, that's enough! I have always been doing this for your own good, but you never appreciate it. From now on, I will no longer care about you, do whatever you want!" Lin Yuxi glared at Lu Yao, her eyes full of disappointment.
Lu Yao was startled by Lin Yuxi's sudden outburst, and she sobered up a little. But she still turned her head away stubbornly, muttering, "It doesn't matter, who cares!"
Lin Yuxi took a deep breath, restarted the car, and ignored Lu Yao. The car fell into silence, with only the sound of the car driving.
At this moment, the radio in the car suddenly sounded: "Emergency news, an extremely dangerous hostage-taking incident just occurred at the XX banquet. It has been resolved and there are no casualties."
Lu Yao was shocked by the news, and most of the alcohol disappeared immediately. She widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief. After a long while, she came to her senses and muttered to herself: "Oh my God, it's a good thing we left..."
When Lin Yuxi heard the news, she just smiled knowingly and thought to herself, "Fortunately, there were no casualties this time."
Lu Yao turned her head and looked at Lin Yuxi. Her tone was no longer as tough as before: "Yuxi, this time... thank you."
Lin Yuxi said calmly: "Don't thank me, I won't care about your business anymore."
Lu Yao bit her lip, feeling a little uncomfortable. She thought of all the ways Lin Yuxi had controlled her in the past. Although she had always been resistant to it, she felt empty when she heard Lin Yuxi say that he would no longer control her.
"Hmph! Just ignore it! Who cares!" Lu Yao said stubbornly in a low voice.
Lin Yuxi glanced at her and started driving seriously again!
Lu Yao was sulking for a while, and after thinking for a while, she still asked unwillingly: "If I fall in love with an unreliable person again, can you really watch me make a mistake?"
Lin Yuxi looked ahead and said firmly: "Yes, I can. Because this is your own choice, and you should bear the consequences yourself."
Lu Yao lowered her head, feeling mixed emotions. She knew that she paid too much attention to love, which made her best friend Lin Yuxi worry about her, but she just wanted to find a pure relationship, so what was wrong with that?
After a long while, Lu Yao suddenly raised her head, with a hint of drunkenness and stubbornness in her eyes, and said loudly: "Lin Yuxi, have you never regarded me as a true friend? Just because I made a few mistakes in love, you are going to abandon me like this?"
Lin Yuxi frowned slightly, her tone still cold: "Lu Yao, I'm not abandoning you. I just don't want to be dragged into those messy things by you anymore. I have my own life, and I don't want to always revolve around your emotional problems."
Lu Yao sneered: "It sounds nice, what about your own life? I think you are selfish and only think about yourself!"
Lin Yuxi took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in her heart: "Lu Yao, you've drunk too much, sober up. I'm selfish? Haven't I done enough for you? Every time you break up, who is by your side to comfort you? Who helps you deal with the mess? But what about you? You never listen to advice and repeat the same mistakes again and again."
Lu Yao cried, "That's because I love them. I believe in love! You don't understand at all!"
Lin Yuxi shook her head helplessly: "Love is not something you pursue blindly like this. Your so-called love is nothing more than a momentary impulse and fantasy."
Lu Yao glared at Lin Yuxi: "Why do you say that? You've never really loved anyone!"
Lin Yuxi was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Maybe I have never loved as recklessly as you have, but at least I know to protect myself and not let myself fall into endless pain and trouble."
Lu Yao yelled, "Stop the car! I don't want you to send me off. I can go back by myself!"
Lin Yuxi glanced at her and slowly stopped the car on the side of the road.
Lu Yao opened the car door and staggered out.
Lin Yuxi shouted in the car: "Lu Yao, you will regret it later if you are so willful!"
Lu Yao said without even turning her head: "I don't want you to care even if I regret it!"
Lin Yuxi looked at Lu Yao's receding back, feeling mixed emotions. She finally stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Lu Yao staggered along the roadside alone. The evening breeze made her a little more sober, but her heart was filled with grievance and anger.
"Lin Yuxi, you are such an ungrateful guy! Just wait, I will definitely find a prince charming to give you a slap in the face!"
