"I'm really sorry, Brother Wang Jie, since you didn't hear me, I'll just tell you again," she said.
But as Wang Xiaoyu was about to continue, Wang Jie instantly refused, shaking his head and waving his hands repeatedly.
"Enough, enough, I give up on you. Now is not the time to talk about this. Haven't you noticed something wrong with me?"
Wang Xiaoyu, confused, shook her head.
"Look at me. My damn bag is gone; someone stole it."
"I was targeted the moment I got to our neighborhood bus station. I'm penniless now, they even took my phone."
...
His face full of grievance, Wang Jie recounted everything that had happened to him at the bus station, but he left out the chance encounter with the bird's-nest incident in the bathroom.
Surprised, it was only then that Wang Xiaoyu realized what was actually going on.
She had assumed it was the real Wang Jie who liked to wander through fireworks and willow lanes, not expecting it was all a misunderstanding.
