A week after moving, Suman received a message from Bai Yu: Baby, I miss you so much.
Suman replied: We have broken up, you don’t need to notify me if you want to.
Bai Yu did not reply.

Speaking of the love between the two, it was half a year ago.
The so-called success in love but disappointment in the casino, Su Man received a notice of dismissal from the company just a month after falling in love with Bai Yu.
Fortunately, before the dismissal, the boss made up the salary arrears for two months. Suman took the thin envelope and sighed. It is better not to look for a small company next time. It is too insecure.
After complaining to Bai Yu on the phone, Bai Yu was very excited, "Manman, since you no longer work in that company, there is no need to live in your place. Come and live with me. , and you can save money on rent."
Since the two established their relationship, Bai Yu has asked her to move several times. Because the friend who shared the house with Bai Yu found his girlfriend and moved out, the two-bedroom house he rented became vacant. It was too deserted to live alone.
Suman was not very happy at first, not only because the two had just fallen in love, but also because Bai Yu's house was too far away, outside the second ring road. For this third-tier city, outside the second ring road was already very remote. The location is good. The company where Suman has been working belongs to an advertising company. It is usually located in a relatively prosperous office building in the city center. If you move there, you will inevitably have to travel too far to work in the future. Suman doesn’t like to waste time on the road. Not to mention the hard work. , it’s just a waste of time.
I just couldn’t bear it. Bai Yu worked hard every day. He did all the laundry and cooking, etc. He said a lot of sweet words. The two of them in the sweet period felt that time passed too fast no matter how tired they got. , under the blow of unemployment, Suman moved as soon as she was cruel. She always had to sacrifice something for love.
Suman went to Bai Yu to rent a house in advance and found out that the life of boys was simply too rough. There were no cooking utensils, not even a water heater. She was very depressed. Bai Yu, who looked tall and handsome, It turns out that life is just doable. The ordinary two-bedroom apartment looked empty because there was nothing. Suman shook his head. It was a simple move, but there were too many additional hardware.

On this day, Sunday, the two of them went to the wholesale market to purchase the missing bits and pieces. The two of them walked on the road like conjoined twins with the vision of heading towards a sweet life. The wholesale market was near the train station and was very chaotic. Suddenly Bai Yu exclaimed and touched his pockets all over his body, "My wallet is gone!".
Seeing his anxious expression, Suman was also startled. She helped him look up and down his pocket, but there was nothing except the keys. "It seemed like a kid bumped into me just now, and I didn't pay attention either." , Bai Yu recalled slightly panicked, with a depressed look on his face.
The train station is the messiest place with many pickpockets. Suman comforted Bai Yu and said, "It's okay to break the bank and avoid disaster. I have money with me. Let's buy things first."
The two put aside their unhappiness and wandered around for a long time, finally buying everything they needed at home. Bai Yu had just lost his wallet, so Suman bought him a new one and forced it on Bai Yu, who waved it away.
Suman didn't have much savings, just two months' salary plus a little money she had saved before. Except for spending some on shopping, she gave everything to Bai Yu. After all, he had lost his wallet and a little bit of his body. The money is gone too.
Bai Yu hugged Suman excitedly, feeling that he had picked up a good girl, who was simple and kind, and the two of them became more and more intimate.

Suman rested for more than half a month. Every day before Bai Yu got off work, he went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and cooked in different ways to ensure that Bai Yu would have something to eat when he got home. After a hot meal, it didn't take long to live like this anymore. Eating plain meals at home at a young age was not a good feeling. Suman sent his resume online to look for a new job.
After all, Bai Yu's salary alone cannot support the two of them.
Both of them are from out of town, working hard in this strange city, and neither family can do much to help them. Renting a house, eating, and daily expenses are quite large.
The job search went smoothly, and Suman went to work soon. As expected, the new company was in the city center. It took an hour and a half to go from the rental house to the company. It was fine at night, but it meant she I have to be at the bus stop at 6:30. This new company is one of the top three advertising companies in the city. After all, during the probation period, Suman cherishes this job opportunity, so one of the foundations of her positive performance is not to be late.
In the weather in Sanjiu, it was after six o'clock, it was still dark, and the cold wind blew on her face like a knife. Suman often stamped her feet and covered her ears to breathe. Before, she rented a house near the company. , wherever I have suffered this crime, my resentment has become great for a while.
"Let's move. Your company is also in the city center. It's a long way for both of us to commute to get off work. Why bother?" Suman complained.
“The rent in the city is so expensive. It’s more expensive to rent one room than our two rooms, so why bother?” Bai Yu was not willing.
"But these two rooms are completely unnecessary. If one room is vacant, we can just rent a room in the city." Suman did not give up.
"This landlord is very kind to me. I have lived here for several years. Besides, it is rare to find a house with one payment per month in the city. Depositing one and paying three is too stressful," Bai Yu coaxed. Coax Suman to drop the matter.
For this reason, Bai Yu went to work earlier and waited for the bus with Suman in the morning, which finally alleviated Suman's resentment.

Not long after, a new conflict arose between the two. Bai Yu loved attending netizen gatherings too much. At that time, the QQ dating group in the same city was very popular, and Bai Yu was very keen to meet netizens. Everyone has an AA dinner together, which provides a good opportunity for drifters working in other places to make friends.
Bai Yu is introverted and not very talkative. He spent the whole party sitting in the corner, watching others chatting animatedly, but he just smiled shyly.
Suman was attracted by Bai Yu's shy smile and fell in love quickly. These days, there are too few honest and handsome big boys.
Suman attended such gatherings several times, but found them boring and no longer interested in participating. Bai Yu, on the other hand, was in high spirits and would attend every gathering. He would go there all night and come back very late.
Suman was very dissatisfied, "You said you are not the kind of person who loves to socialize. You can't say a few words even when you go there. Why do you like this kind of occasion so much? Go there twice less and stay at home more often. Why don't you stay with me?"
Because of this, the two of them argued many times, but in the end Bai Yu turned around and went to the banquet, leaving Suman sulking alone at home.
Suman slowly began to think about Bai Yu. She was attracted by his handsome and shy appearance at first, and was hastily forced by Bai Yu to confirm the relationship. To be honest, the two did not know each other well. After living together, Only then did I discover the differences between the two in various aspects.
Suman likes to imagine the future. She desperately wants to take root in this city and have her own small family. However, whenever she mentions this to Bai Yu and describes the blueprint for the future, Bai Yu always has nothing to say. interest.
Bai Yu works as a network maintainer in a company. The salary is not high, and he will starve to death if he can't support it. The work is very leisurely. Suman reminds him that he might be able to take on some private work in his spare time and repair it in the community. Using the computer can also make extra money. If the two of them save more money, they can buy a house sooner in the future.
Bai Yu sneered at her idea, and then turned around and went to various netizen gatherings.
Suman regretted a little. The silent boy in front of him was not as innocent as he had imagined.
For example, if he lost his wallet, which contained only money, Bai Yu did not lose his ID card and various bank cards. When he later used a new wallet, both his ID card and bank cards were placed in the wallet.
Did he really lose his money?
Suman didn’t dare to think about it.

Suman felt vaguely uneasy, and she understood Bai Yu less and less.
As the new year is approaching, Bai Yu’s company organizes a team-building dinner where family members can be brought. Bai Yu took her there.
While drinking and drinking at the dinner table, she found that there was always a girl’s eyes lingering on her. That was Zhu Shan, the assistant to the general manager of Baiyu Company. She was sweet, eloquent, and charming. Suman praised a few words.
Using a woman's sixth sense, Suman always felt that there was something strange in the way Zhu Shan looked at Bai Yu, and she also had some special meaning when looking at herself.
After returning home, Suman pulled Bai Yu and kept asking questions. Sure enough, as expected, this Zhu Shan was the girl Bai Yu had unsuccessfully pursued before. Zhu Shan is a local, and like all young men working outside of town, Bai Yu also wants to find a local girl. Not only does she have a house, but the girl's parents' connections can also help her get married and have children in the future.
Bai Yu has been attentive to him for a long time, but Zhu Shan always treats him as if he is away from him, and even takes him home. Zhu Shan's mother is very snobbish, so naturally she looks down on this poor young man from out of town, so the two gradually become alienated. .
Bai Yu was unwilling to be Zhu Shan’s backup, but at this time, Suman appeared. Although she was a girl from out of town, she was innocent and cute. Bai Yu’s hurt heart suddenly found a place where he could comfort and warm himself. , so after a few dates, Bai Yu forced Suman to confirm their relationship. He was no longer willing to be a backup.
Suman was very disappointed when he knew the truth, and the relationship also changed.
No wonder Bai Yu refused to change his job after trying to persuade him to change to a higher-paying job. He probably still had expectations for Zhu Shan in his heart. Even taking him to the company for dinner was probably to prove his charm. Make Zhu Shan jealous.
The reason why Bai Yu is so keen on netizen gatherings is to hunt for local girls. After all, he is not familiar with the place and has no relatives to introduce him. Apart from work, the only opportunity to meet local girls is in the form of netizen gatherings. .
So he has no interest in the future described by Suman, because in his dream, Suman is not his ideal marriage partner.
Once again, the two of them were arguing about changing jobs. Bai Yu blurted out: "Money, money, money, you are with me just for money? Did you think I was the son of a rich family?" ?”
Suman laughed angrily. From the beginning of the date, after Bai Yu treated her to two meals, she understandingly stopped going out to restaurants in the name of saving money. He was praised by Bai Yu. Not long after, the two of them lived together, all using Suman's money, and all the things she bought for the house were bought by her. Was it for money? Bai Yu never bought anything for her. He was just a poor boy. What did Suman want?
It may be who you are, so just use your own ideas to figure out others.
Suman was disheartened and felt that there was no hope in life, while Bai Yu continued to work and party as usual, and lived a happy life.

Let’s break up, Suman took the initiative after suffering for a while.
Bai Yu did not redeem himself, which was regarded as acquiescence.
"I will find a house as soon as possible and move out," Suman said through gritted teeth.
Soon, she found a rental house near the company, agreed on a date with the moving company, and started packing her luggage. She would leave Bai Yu the next day.
Suman's heart was full of sadness. After all, they had been together for several months and she was really devoted. She sat in front of the computer blankly.
Bai Yu was a little excited. It seemed that the breakup between the two was something worth celebrating. He patted the bed and greeted Suman, wanting to show some warmth for the last time.
Suman was a little disgusted and did not respond to him. Bai Yu was bored.
The next day, the moving company came as scheduled, and Bai Yu hid out in advance. Suman helped the movers remove the luggage piled in the living room one by one, when suddenly the neighbor's aunt across the door came to join in the fun.
Suman has met this aunt several times and is not familiar with her at ordinary times. But at this moment, she was leaning on the door to watch the excitement when she suddenly said: "Are you going to evacuate the whole house?" Didn't you leave any of it for Bai Yu?"
Suman suddenly became angry and said, "These are all my luggage, and I didn't take any of his things."
The aunt opposite the door curled her lips and continued to stare.
Suman suddenly understood that this aunt was the one Bai Yu had asked to keep an eye on. He was not willing to come forward, let alone help, and he was worried. Suman felt sad. Before moving, Bai Yu's house had nothing except beds, furniture and other things provided by the landlord. She only bought pots and pans after she came.
When moving, she didn't take any of these things. She only took away her clothes, bedding, books, etc.
After moving out, she sent a text message to Bai Yu to inform him that the move was completed and the key was left in the house.
Bai Yu did not reply.

After the breakup, Suman worked hard. She suddenly felt that it was so powerless to place her hopes on others, and it was better to rely on herself.
If you want to make money, buy a house, or settle down in this city, you need to work hard to realize your dream.
Five years later, Suman realized her dream. She bought her own small house. It was not big, with one bedroom and one living room, but she smiled contentedly and at ease in the house. This is My own home.
Suman didn’t expect to meet Bai Yu again. Her computer was broken and she had been tinkering with it for a long time. She had no choice but to call and arrange for a computer repairman to come to the house for service. Unexpectedly, the person who came was Bai Yu.
The two were still a little embarrassed when they met again. They were silent for a long time before the conversation started.
It turns out that after the breakup, Bai Yu was stimulated. Finally, he followed Suman's original suggestion and found a friend to form a partnership, opened a computer repair company, and became a small boss. The business is currently doing well. , much better than when working.
Now, Bai Yu is married and has children, and is living a good life.
Suman also realized her dream, got her own house, and her wedding to her boyfriend was also on the agenda.
This encounter did not cause any emotional disturbance between the two of them. After repairing the computer, the two said goodbye politely and had no further contact since then.
Suman recalled that Bai Yu was not as bad as he imagined when he was young. Although he was a bit selfish and a bit cautious, at that time, they were all too young, confused and powerless. Looking around for his own life-saving straw, Bai Yu wants to find a local girl to find a lifeline once and for all, but Suman doesn't want to find a potential stock to achieve a stable life?
But reality will tell them that it is better to rely on themselves than relying on others.
There are so many shortcuts in the world, but taking shortcuts requires paying a lot of price. Both of them have met with disappointment on this road. Fortunately, the relationship they had had left traces in their hearts. , allowing them to understand the reality more clearly.
As the saying goes, we hate meeting each other before we are married, but Suman felt that she and Bai Yu should thank each other for not being married and for being unmarried.
