Chapter 360 This gave her a sense of comfort
Su Ming felt a sense of happiness. He turned on the faucet at the kitchen sink. The warm water drops fell on his palms, washing away the fatigue of the day. He closed his eyes, enjoying this moment of tranquility, and a feeling of gratitude for home surged in his heart.
After washing his hands, he walked into the living room and saw Zhang Lin sitting on the sofa with a book in her hand. The bookshelf was filled with their favorite novels and poetry collections, and each book witnessed the time they had spent together. "Is this a new book you bought today?" Su Ming walked over and flipped through the book.
Zhang Lin nodded: "Yes, I heard that this book is very interesting. I plan to read it tonight." Her voice was full of anticipation and excitement, as if the stories in the book could bring her a special inspiration.
Just as they were about to sit down and chat, Su Ming's phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the screen and found that it was his good friend Jia Dongxu calling. He answered the call, but heard the other party's anxious voice: "Su Ming, I can't get through to Xiao Dang on the phone. Can you help me contact her? I have something urgent to discuss with her."
Su Ming was a little surprised, because Jia Dongxu and Xiaodang were mutual friends of the two of them, and they had a good relationship. He comforted Jia Dongxu: "Don't worry, I'll go ask Zhang Lin to see if she has any news recently."
He put down his phone, turned to Zhang Lin and said, "Jia Dongxu said he couldn't contact Xiaodang and had something urgent to discuss. Have you talked to her recently?"
Zhang Lin frowned and thought for a moment. "It seems that the last time we contacted was a few days ago. She said she was going to travel for a week. She might be on the way. I can help you find the contact information of her other friends."
Su Ming nodded, a trace of worry rising in his heart. They have been friends for many years. Although the frequency of contact between them is not high, they can always help each other at critical moments. He turned on the computer and began to look for other contact information for Xiao Dang. At the same time, he was also thinking about how to notify Jia Dongxu if he really couldn't contact her.
Time passed by, and the sky outside the house gradually darkened. Su Ming was busy in front of the computer, and he would communicate with Zhang Lin about the latest progress every once in a while. Zhang Lin helped to organize the preparations for dinner, and occasionally couldn't help but sneak a peek at Su Ming's expression. She knew that he always attached great importance to the relationship between friends.
Finally, in the process of Su Ming's continuous efforts to find and contact, he found a clue. Xiao Dang did leave for a remote travel location a few days ago, and her mobile phone signal might not be very good. Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief and quickly called Jia Dongxu.
"Hello, Dongxu, I just checked some information. Xiaodang did go on a trip recently, so the signal may be bad and we can't contact her. Please be patient, she should contact you soon." Su Ming tried to calm his tone and tried to give some comfort to his friend.
Jia Dongxu was silent for a while on the other end of the phone, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, so that's the case. Okay, then I'll wait and see. Thank you for helping me check this news."
Su Ming smiled and said, "It's okay. We friends should help each other. You can always come to me if you have any problem."
Xiao Dang was walking down the street in a depressed mood. This street had become a part of her daily life, and she shuttled between familiar buildings and shops every day. Today, even though the sun was shining and the streets were lush with flowers and plants, her mood could not be affected by the beautiful scenery around her.
The incident started a few days ago when she accidentally discovered some improper behavior of Lao Jiang. Lao Jiang was someone she trusted and relied on for many years, and a friend she once thought would always be by her side. However, that night, she accidentally saw Lao Jiang and a young woman being intimate in a restaurant, which shocked and heartbroken her.
She didn't know how to deal with this matter, and her heart was full of contradictions and pain. She once thought that the friendship between her and Lao Jiang was indestructible, but now everything has changed. She couldn't accept Lao Jiang's betrayal, nor could she understand why such a thing happened.
Walking down the street, her mind was filled with images of that night: the smiles of Lao Jiang and the girl, their intimate gestures, and her own feeling of being frozen in place and unable to believe what she was seeing. She felt that she had been deceived, deceived by the person she regarded as a friend.
"Xiaodang, why are you sitting here in a daze alone?" A familiar voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts.
She looked up and saw Su Ming standing in front of her, looking at her with concern. Su Ming and Xiao Dang had been friends for many years and had a deep understanding and trust between them. He knew that Xiao Dang was a strong and sensitive person who would not easily show his inner fragility.
Xiao Dang forced a smile, trying to make herself look calmer. "Oh, Su Ming, nothing, I just want to take a walk." Her voice was a little low, unable to hide her inner uneasiness.
Su Ming frowned slightly. He knew Xiao Dang was not the kind of person who would be in a daze for no reason. "What's the matter? You don't look very happy."
Xiao Dang sighed, feeling that she could no longer hide her emotions. "Actually... there is something that bothers me." She hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to confide in Su Ming.
She briefly described the scene when she found out that Lao Jiang had cheated on her, and her psychological confusion and pain afterwards. She didn't tell Su Ming the specific details, but he understood that this was a huge blow to her.
Su Ming listened quietly without interrupting her. He knew that at this moment, what Xiao Dang needed was not words of comfort, but someone who could listen to her heart. He prayed for her silently in his heart, hoping that she could get out of the shadow as soon as possible.
"Xiao Dang, I understand how you feel right now." Su Ming finally spoke, his tone gentle but firm. "This kind of thing can really make people feel very disappointed and frustrated. However, I believe you can handle this matter well."
Xiaodang raised her head and looked into Su Ming's eyes, feeling his sincere support. She knew she was not alone, at least she had friends around to support her. This comforted her a little, although the pain in her heart had not completely dissipated.
"Thank you, Su Ming." Xiao Dang smiled slightly, with a hint of relief in his eyes. "I know what to do. Maybe time will dilute everything."
Su Ming patted her shoulder gently, indicating that they could walk back together. "Come on, I'll take you to eat something delicious, maybe it will make you feel better."
Jia Dongxu stood in his home, holding his cell phone tightly in his hand, waiting for the call with mixed feelings.
