“Exactly!” Lin Wanqin pouted. “If you hadn’t avoided me back then, we wouldn’t have lost contact for so many years! Speaking of which, Tingting, what happened to you back then? Why were you suddenly unwilling to contact me?
Also, I couldn’t find you after that.”
She was still confused about what had happened at that time. It was just a small matter, but Tingting reacted strongly and had a big fight with her and even cut off contact with her.
“Well, let’s not talk about the things back then.” Pang Tingting said with a
smile, “I was still young at that time, and I was too impulsive. Actually, all these years, I’ve always wanted to find you. But I was afraid that you were still bothered by this, so I didn’t dare to contact you.”
“You just like to think too much.” Lin Wanqin smiled and shook her head. “But I’m really surprised and happy that you came to see me today. In the past, you weren’t willing to give in easily.”
“I’ve grown up now.” Pang Tingting’s expression stiffened for a moment, but she quickly returned to normal. She was still smiling. “Thinking about the past, I feel that I was too childish back then. I don’t want to lose you as a friend while I still have a chance.”
Hearing Pang Tingting’s words, Lin Wanqin was touched. “Actually, I had always wanted to look for you all these years. However, after you left the capital, there was no news of you at all. I couldn’t find you even if I wanted to.”
“In fact, I was transferred to another city after we quarreled,” Pang Tingting said with a sigh. “I didn’t expect to be gone for so many years. I just transferred back to the capital not long ago, so I took the time to come and see you.”
“You should have come long ago.” Lin Wanqin said with a smile, “By the way, it’s been so many years. Your child should be no longer a kid, right?”
A hint of resentment flickered in Pang Tingting’s eyes when she heard that, but she still managed to look carefree. “Hehe, you’re wrong. I don’t like to be tied down by marriage, and I don’t want children.”
“You’re not married yet?” Lin Wanqin was very surprised. “I remember that in the past, what you wanted the most was to have a home of your own!”
Pang Tingting was an orphan, but she wasn’t abandoned. Her parents died in an accident, and her relatives refused to adopt her. That was why she was sent to an orphanage. It was because she grew up in an orphanage that she longed to have a home of her own.
“That’s past history now.” Pang Tingting smiled and shook her head. “People’s thoughts will always change with time. Actually, I’ve also experienced a few relationships. In the end, I realized that I still like to live alone and freely, so I didn’t get married.”
Lin Wanqin didn’t know what to say, but she still tried to persuade her. “You might think that it’s good to be alone now, but when you get older, you’ll want to have children by your side.”
“No need to persuade me.” Pang Tingting said directly, “You know my personality. Once I decide on something, it’s not that easy to change it. I like to be alone, and I don’t lack anything. I don’t want to be restrained by someone else.”
Lin Wanqin opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, and she didn’t say anything in the end.
“Let’s not talk about these unhappy things.” Pang Tingting looked around and smiled. “Where are your son and daughter? Where are they?”
“They’re not at home right now.” Lin Wanqin felt that something was wrong as soon as she answered. “How did you know that I have a son and a daughter?”
They had lost contact for many years. When they fell out, she was not even married yet. Now, how did Pang Tingting know that she had two children?
Pang Tingting was stunned for a moment, but she immediately restored her smile. She reached out her hand and brushed her hair before continuing, “I heard about this from my former classmate. At the end of the day, you’re still the happiest among us classmates! Your husband has a successful career and your children are amenable.”
Hearing Pang Tingting mention her husband and children, Lin Wanqin couldn’t suppress the blissful smile on her face. However, she still said humbly, “Are you kidding me? I’m just a housewife now. I can’t compare to you. You’re all successful women now..”
