Chapter 310: Reconciliation in Opposition
Only when he and Su Jingsi both collapsed powerlessly on the floor of the reception room, no longer having any strength to fight, did Xu Lingfeng have to stop attacking Su Jingsi.
Even so, Xu Lingfeng's eyes were still staring at Su Jingsi, as if this would cause some substantial harm to the other party.
Although he tried his best to avoid being hit on the head and face by Xu Lingfeng, Su Jingsi still received several punches on the face. At this moment, he only felt the swelling on his face, and the corners of his mouth were even more painful.
Xu Lingfeng's condition was actually not much better than Su Jingsi's. His face was also covered with bruises.
At this moment, the two of them were like two black-eyed chickens that had fought fiercely, you glared at me, I glared at you. Looking at each other's funny appearance with bruised noses and swollen faces, I didn't feel anything at first, but after a while, I couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity and helplessness from the bottom of my heart.
I don't know who laughed out loud first, but in the end, both of them laughed unrestrainedly. If it weren't for the broken tables and chairs in the room, which were scattered all over the place, I would have thought that the two of them were laughing happily because of something funny.
The laughter lasted for a while in the room. The pain on Xu Lingfeng's face made him grin with his teeth bared. The same was true for Su Jingsi.
But soon, the laughter stopped. A strange silence filled the air, as if even time had frozen at this moment.
Xu Lingfeng's eyes were still on Su Jingsi, and Su Jingsi also stared at Xu Lingfeng motionlessly. After the fist-to-flesh venting, this time, both of them were particularly calm, as if they were measuring each other.
If it weren't for Ouyang Mengmian, Xu Lingfeng admitted that he and Su Jingsi might have become good friends. He admitted that Su Jingsi was undoubtedly excellent - when facing him, Su Jingsi would not feel inferior to him and dared to face him head-on. In this respect, he was at least better than Li Xin.
Su Jingsi was trying to figure out why Xu Lingfeng attacked him. His most immediate thought was that Xu Lingfeng already knew about his relationship with Ouyang Mengmian. Thinking that Ouyang Mengmian was not far from him in this city, Su Jingsi felt more excited than ever before.
Although he was eager to know the news about Ouyang Mengmian, he also knew that he couldn't rush it. He knew that he couldn't irritate Xu Lingfeng anymore and let Xu Lingfeng continue to do things beyond reason. For this reason, he had to ease the conflict between him and Xu Lingfeng, although this conflict was irreconcilable. At the same time, he also firmly believed that Xu Lingfeng was upright and would never do anything to take advantage of someone's misfortune. Moreover, if Xu Lingfeng really loved Ouyang Mengmian, he would definitely help her happiness.
So, Su Jingsi was the first to break the silence. He swallowed hard and said in a hoarse voice: "We...why are we doing this?" There was both fatigue and relief in his eyes, as if at this moment, all the grudges and hatreds became less important as his physical strength was exhausted.
Hearing this, the anger in Xu Lingfeng's eyes seemed to ease, but then it was replaced by a complex emotion. He panted and said slowly: "Yes, why did it become like this? I didn't mean to be your enemy, but..." At this point, he was suddenly speechless, as if even he himself couldn't explain the reason.
The tension between the two gradually dissipated, replaced by an indescribable tacit understanding. They both knew that this meaningless fight, in addition to leaving each other bruised and battered, did not bring any substantial changes.
Su Jingsi struggled to sit up. Seeing this, Xu Lingfeng, although he did not actively offer his hand to help, quietly moved his body away to make room for him. After Su Jingsi sat down, he gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and his eyes fell on Xu Lingfeng again. This time there was no hostility, only deep thought.
"Maybe we can find a better way to solve the problem." Su Jingsi suggested.
Xu Lingfeng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then nodded slowly. Although the movement was not big, it was enough to show his attitude. The two looked at each other, as if they had reached some kind of consensus at this moment. Although the physical pain was still there, the burden on their hearts seemed to be much lighter.
Afterwards, they supported each other and stood up. Although their steps were staggering, each step seemed extremely firm. The reception room was left in a mess, but it also witnessed their process of moving from confrontation to reconciliation.
