Synopsis

A writer once said, "We don't need down jackets in summer, fans in winter, and attention after we're disappointed." After the breakup, I became happy and even found myself. Thanks for letting me go. This is a series of stories after breakups. A relationship may not necessarily make people happier, but a breakup will definitely do it. “Seven Ear Piercings” I had a secret relationship with my stepmother's son. When we broke up, it became particularly unpleasant. One day, he got drunk and intercepted me in the bathroom. He said, "I'm a masochist. We'll torment each other until our hair turns grey. What can you do to me?" “Blind Date With an Undercover Cop” I never expected to meet him again. The last time I saw him, he was a clumsy barista who messed up my order nine times in a row. I felt sorry for him, so I tried to crack a joke. "Hey, are you an undercover cop?" He looked startled and denied it quickly. But as soon as I left the cafe, he locked the door and disappeared. Later on, we ran into each other again. He stopped me and said, "You're under arrest, because you have stolen my heart, darling."

Author: Ni Hai1On Valentine's Day, my boyfriend jumped to his death from our 27th-floor bedroom balcony.The shrill scream startled the security guards in several nearby buildings.Bertram Chaucer squatted before me and asked about the incident. His policeman's eyes were sharp, and his tone was all-business. "Where were you when the incident happened?"I was so scared that I collapsed on the ground, my clothes in disarray. I kept shivering like a fish out of water, gasping for breath.After a while, he calmly repeated, "Miss Belle, where were you when the incident happened?"I tried my best to make a hoarse sound, "I was sleeping.""The balcony is connected to the bedroom. When he jumped off the balcony, were you conscious?""I was asleep. I didn't know anything.""The neighbor said he heard your fierce quarrel about two hours before the incident. Is that true?""Yes.""Why?"This word ignited my remaining rationality. I raised my head and glared at the man in front of...

5Three days later, Thomas' mother died.I suffered from insomnia and could only fall asleep after taking sleeping pills. I didn't know what had happened after I fell asleep.This morning, as soon as I opened the door, I saw a pair of legs swaying in the air, and the toes were only a few centimeters away from me.The red plastic stool fell to the ground with a dull clatter.In an instant, my hair stood on end, and I curled up in the corner in horror. My throat tightened, and I couldn't make a sound. I could only hear my heart beating wildly.It took me a long time to come back to my senses. Trembling, I took out my phone and called Bertram.His voice came from the phone. He was as calm as ever. "What's wrong?"I took a deep breath and squeezed my thigh, forcing myself to focus."Don't be afraid. Stay where you are. I'll be right there." There was a rustling sound on the phone. "Don't hang up. Wait for me."My fear and panic seemed to have found an exit, slowly fading away. I

7When Sarah came to see me with the fruit, Bertram was still angry. He sat by the ward window and lowered his head to play with his mobile phone.The atmosphere was awkward.Sarah noticed this. After showing concern for my health, she strode up to Bertram and snatched his phone away without saying a word."If you have something to say, just say it. We're not mind readers. How are we supposed to know what you're thinking?"As far as I knew, Bertram was a cold-faced man, and Sarah was a sweet little sister.However, at this moment, it was as if they'd swapped roles.Under my stunned gaze, Bertram stood up and walked toward me with a serious expression."Julian, you shouldn't feel so guilt-ridden. Do you think he will be grateful if you don't pursue the matter of Thomas' father? You need to get a grip. Weak people will always be bullied. Do you understand?"Her tone was stern, and she even added some hand movements, which made her look like a parent who was exasperated at her ch

9These words instantly exploded in my mind.Was there any other reason for Thomas' mother's death?I asked the driver to turn around and return to the hospital. As soon as I got out of the car, I saw Bertram.He stood straight on the side of the road, and the sun shone brightly on him.I felt a little ashamed. My eyes were red and I didn't know what to say.He pursed his lips and looked at me quietly. After a long while, he slowly said, "Julian, there is no barrier in life that can't be overcome. Take a few more steps and you'll be fine."I nodded and tears rolled down my cheeks."Come on, I'll take you to a place. I think it's more meaningful for you to understand the cause of Thomas' mother's death."Bertram raised his hand and paused above my head for a while. In the end, he patted my shoulder gently.My heart skipped a beat.I had made countless speculations about how Thomas' mother had hung herself at my door.What convinced me the most was that in order to take reven

11On the day of Thomas' father's wedding, it was a grand occasion.The yard was filled with band members who were singing and playing. Their voices could be heard a few miles away.However, there were very few relatives who came, and the neighbors all didn't like this family.When I showed up with a group of reporters, it caused quite a stir.The neighbors gathered around his house at the same time, surrounding the door of his house tightly."Julian, are you crazy? What are you doing?" The groom, who heard the noise, came in a hurry, and his face turned blue.Seeing that the situation was not good, the bride quickly covered her head and ran away, for fear of being photographed by the camera."I brought reporters to interview you." I tidied up my collar, straightened my chest, and looked up at the camera. "You spread rumors every day about how I forced your son to death and forced your wife to hang herself at the door of my house. I have to let everyone know the truth."Thomas

He said, "I'm a masochist. We'll torment each other until our hair turns grey. What can you do to me?"1It was almost New Year. I delayed things for as long as I could, but in the end, under my father's alternating intimidation and bribery, I bought a plane ticket home.On the day I got home, Jeremy came to pick me up.It was the first time we met after breaking up.After half a year, he had changed a great deal. He only wore light-colored clothes in the past, but now, he was dressed in a tailored black suit. He had a slender waist and long legs. Coupled with his profound outline and indifferent expression, he looked cold and unapproachable."Brother..." I called him awkwardly.He glanced at me coldly and said, "Call me by my name. I don't want to be your brother."If we broke up, couldn't we be

4As soon as I stepped out of the door, a bone-chilling wind blew from all directions.I stood in the snowy field. Before I could recover from the shame, I saw Jeremy chasing after me.He wore a black down jacket, and most of his face was hidden in his thick and fluffy collar, revealing only a pair of calm eyes. He was holding a Patrick Star hand warmer, which didn't match his image at all.Walking up to me, he handed me the hand warmer and said lightly, "Let's go home. It's cold outside."I quickly shook my head and said, "Brother, no, Jeremy, come with me somewhere. I'm afraid to go alone."It took us a few hours to drive there.The sun was setting in the west, and the evening mist was heavy. Jeremy and I were sitting in front of a tomb in the cemetery. It was hushed, and no one else was there. Looking around, I found there were only neatly arranged tombstones of different heights."I told my mother everything." I chuckled. "Including our relationship."The tip of Jeremy's n

6In the open kitchen, Jeremy was focused on preparing the ingredients. The sun shone through the window and highlighted his side profile.Everything seemed dreamlike in those moments.I didn't even dare to breathe heavily for fear of disturbing something.I didn't know how much time had passed when Jeremy suddenly turned around. When he saw me, he reminded me in a serious tone, "You have gum in your eyes."These words easily destroyed all my fantasies.I gritted my teeth and glared at him. "Don't meddle with a pretty girl's business."Jeremy nodded and turned around to go back to his work. "No matter what you look like, I'll like it."Wait a minute...Was he expressing his love?During our two years together, Jeremy was a man of action and rarely used tricks.Sometimes, when I deliberately acted like a spoiled child in front of him, he would push me away with a look of disgust. He would say, "Madison, use your normal voice when talking."After washing up, I sat at the dini

9At the beginning of the new year, everything looked new and fresh.However, my house was filled with a murderous aura.My stepmother occupied a big sofa alone, and my father timidly sat on the small couch next to her.Jeremy held my hand and stood in front of the coffee table. The two of us looked like criminals being interrogated.The "Harmony in the Home" plaque was hung high on the wall, full of sarcasm.I'd always been terrified that my father would find out about this.It wasn't because I was afraid he would object but because I was scared his reaction would make my last desire for the family become a sick joke.I wasn't afraid of danger, but I feared the person who stabbed me was my beloved.After a prolonged silence, my stepmother suddenly sat up straight and glared at my father. "Are you mute? Say something!"My dad lowered his head and coughed. He smiled apologetically and said, "This is their business. Let Jeremy and Madison solve it themselves."I almost doubted

11A big black padlock locked the door of the storage room in the attic, and there was a constant rustling sound in the room.My stepmother sat paralyzed at the door, tears and hair stuck to her face. She was a mess.Seeing me, she asked sadly, "Do you know Jeremy has claustrophobia?""I don't."Jeremy had never mentioned it to me.My stepmother frowned. As if she had thought of something, her dry and red eyes were filled with tears again."When his father died of illness, my business partner and I went to another city to stock up. When we returned, the whole room stunk. Jeremy and the dead body were in the small room for three days. Since then, he was terrified of enclosed spaces, darkness, and unpleasant smells. When he came to me today, I asked him to stay in the storage room for 12 hours before talking to me. He actually went in!"She sniffed and said hoarsely, "I thought I could scare him."I squatted down and wanted to hear her words more clearly. She suddenly grabbed my
