Human Greed - Chapter 90
Mother Xu didn’t know what Xu Ruoxing was talking about. She asked, “What, what do you mean? What happened to you tonight?”
It’s not normal at all. After graduation, Xu Ruoxing has always been mature and steady, and everything he does is orderly. It’s the first time to mess up the room like this. Her mental state doesn’t seem to be in a good state. Xu Ruoxing slowed down and said: ” Mom, I’m fine.”
Mother Xu didn’t believe it at all: “Don’t wander around, I’ll pour you a glass of water.”
After talking about wanting to go out, Xu Ruoxing followed and said, “Mom, I’m going back.”
Mother Xu was worried: “Now? Don’t go back tonight, can you still drive like this?”
Xu Ruoxing’s eyes were red, she nodded, and said affirmatively: “I want to go back, Su Yi is still waiting for me.”
Mama Xu paused: “Then I’ll take you back?”
Xu Ruoxing said, “No, I’ll drive back by myself.”
Xu’s mother followed closely, afraid that she would change her mind, she kept saying, “Can you really drive? No way, let your father take you home? Ruoxing, are you okay?”
“I’m fine, mom.” Xu Ruoxing said, “I know I suddenly know something, and I can’t take it easy.”
Xu’s mother took her hand: “Parents have to deal with big things. If you can’t wait, parents will help you carry them. Don’t work too hard.”
Xu Ruoxing’s eyes became hotter.
She suddenly thought of Su Yi asking her that day: “Do your parents fight?”
She said, “No.”
Su Yi said, “How lucky.”
Xu Ruoxing pursed her lips and nodded, yes, how lucky she is, having everything she has now, including Su Yi, Xu Ruoxing’s eyes dimmed a bit, she and Xu’s mother didn’t say much, promised her to go home to report that she was safe, get off the elevator and get on the car, The action is done in one go.
Although she was in a hurry, she didn’t drive fast. She was thinking along the way, whether their meeting at first was too dramatic, but if there was a mistake, the two of them would just miss it, even though they did miss it for so many years.
So why did Su Yi mention physical marriage? Why didn’t she want to wear a wedding ring?
Xu Ruoxing felt that she still had a lot of unanswered questions, she wanted to see Su Yi right away, and couldn’t wait.
The car was speeding on the road, and soon arrived at the downstairs of the community. Xu Ruoxing’s heart was beating fast. He was not so nervous on the day of the wedding. Now his fingers are still a little numb. The car is parked in the garage. Xu Ruoxing is still thinking about how to talk to Su Yi when he gets on the elevator , thought a lot, but unexpectedly pushed open the door, it was quiet, very dark, Xu Ruoxing’s face changed slightly, she immediately realized what had rushed into the room, no one was there, and there was dinner brought by Li Chen on the dining table, she couldn’t move Without moving, Xu Ruoxing frowned, like pouring a basin of cold water over her head, she shivered in this sultry night.
Su Yi left?
impossible.
She’s not like that.
Xu Ruoxing quickly thought of where Su Yi would go, she rushed downstairs without changing her shoes, got into the car again, and drove to the food stall.
Su Yi sat alone in the food stall. At night, when there were the most people, the students sat around together, and their eyes fell on Su Yi from time to time. Su Yi leaned against the window, looking outside, with a dull expression and no expression. She delivered two dishes and asked with a smile, “Your wife didn’t come today?”
Su Yi looked up at the boss and nodded: “She’s a little busy.”
To add to my heart, I may not come here anytime soon.
The boss said: “Then you eat more.”
Su Yi responded shallowly, and when she moved the chopsticks, two girls sat down opposite, and one girl asked boldly: “Sister, is it convenient to add a contact information?”
The girl next to her pulled her arm, blushing.
Su Yi laughed: “Sorry, I’m already married.”
“Ah!” The girl was surprised: “You, you, you are married!”
Su Yi nodded.
The girl pulled her friend along and slipped away in embarrassment.
Su Yi lowered her head to eat. Just as a pair of girls left, another boy came in, his face was flushed, and he couldn’t speak fluently: “Hi, are you older than x too?”
With a cropped cut and a thick voice, looking at the shy boy, Su Yi said, “No.”
The boy said: “Then…”
Su Yi said, “Sorry, I’m already married.”
The boy was embarrassed. There were too many people staring at Su Yi, and not many came to strike up a conversation. Seeing the two groups of people coming over, the others couldn’t hold back anymore. Su Yi pursed her lips. The college students now are more than they were back then You have to be more courageous, you can go up directly when you see a target, which is better than her.
Su Yi laughed at herself, and there was another person sitting in front of her, without raising her head, “Sorry, I’m married.”
The words came out as soon as he opened his mouth, and the voice of the person opposite said softly: “I know.”
Su Yi paused while holding the chopsticks, raised her eyes to look at Xu Ruoxing, her expression paused, she clenched the chopsticks tightly, her complexion changed slightly, her pupils shrank, and it took several seconds before she said, “Why are you here?”
Xu Ruoxing said, “Come and have dinner with you.”
Su Yi didn’t speak, but looked at Xu Ruoxing, trying to see clues from her facial expressions, to see through the clues of Xu Ruoxing’s emotions, but Xu Ruoxing looked calm, his eyes were as deep as a puddle of water, and he couldn’t see anything.
Su Yi lowered her head: “Then I’ll order two more dishes.”
Xu Ruoxing said, “No, that’s enough.”
Su Yi glanced at her and said nothing.
The surrounding area is still quite noisy, besides the nearby college students, there are quite a few people who come to play, some are shooting videos, some are traveling, couples are in pairs, Xu Ruoxing sits opposite Su Yi and blocks a lot of eyes, originally they were all staring at Su Yi , and now it turned into staring at the two of them, Su Yi was immersed in her own world until Xu Ruoxing came.
She took a bite, glanced at the wedding ring on Xu Ruoxing’s hand out of the corner of her eye, and slowed down her chewing. Xu Ruoxing went to a classmate dinner, did she meet Zhou Yuanyuan?
What did they talk about? Have we talked too much? Does Xu Ruoxing know his own thoughts?
Su Yi was stuck in her throat, but she still chewed slowly without saying a word. In the crowded and noisy environment, Xu Ruoxing’s cell phone rang, and every syllable hit Su Yi’s eardrum, which bulged and beat, shaking her hands and feet Numb and cold, all the sounds around her were gone in an instant, she lowered her head, her hair covered her cheeks, and she couldn’t see her expression.
When Xu Ruoxing answered the phone, it was Li Chen who called worryingly, fearing that she would quarrel with Su Yi, so she had to hold back, but she couldn’t, so she called Xu Ruoxing when she got home to ask what was going on.
Xu Ruoxing said, “It’s okay.”
Li Chen said, “Are you all right? If you have anything to do, Ruoxing, don’t lie to me. Zhou Yuanyuan and I are different.”
Xu Ruoxing said, “I know, don’t worry.”
Li Chen said, “So are you going home now?”
Xu Ruoxing said, “No.”
Li Chen asked, “Where are you?”
Xu Ruoxing said, “I’m having dinner with Su Yi.”
Li Chen: …
She paused for a few seconds and said, “Goodbye.”
Hanging up the phone with a snap, without hesitation for a second, Xu Ruoxing put down the phone, seeing Su Yi still staring at the dish, he couldn’t help asking: “Do you like this very much?”
Su Yi ignored her.
Xu Ruoxing frowned and called, “Su Yi?”
Su Yi raised her head slightly, and looked at Xu Ruoxing. Just now, she called out, and the voice came back in an instant. She said: “What’s wrong?” She still didn’t forget to explain: “It was too noisy just now, I didn’t hear it.”
Xu Ruoxing just frowned and said, “It’s okay.”
Su Yi continued to eat dinner. She didn’t eat well tonight. The table next to her had been changed twice before Su Yi put down her chopsticks. She said, “I’ll go and pay the bill.”
Xu Ruoxing said, “I’ll go.”
As she spoke, she got up and disappeared into the crowd. There were quite a lot of people at the checkout area. Several people crowded together and rushed to pay. They were all college students, making a lot of noise. Xu Ruoxing usually didn’t like to hear these noises, but today he was surprisingly patient. , stood on the side, or the boss said: “If you want to quarrel, go to the side to quarrel, and they still have to pay the bill.”
Several college students turned their heads and saw Xu Ruoxing, they thought it was really beautiful at first glance, they unconsciously moved away, Xu Ruoxing walked among them, and asked the boss while paying the money: “When did my wife come?”
wife?
Several people hurriedly looked over and saw another beautiful woman sitting by the window over there. Subconsciously, they knew that it was the wife Xu Ruoxing was talking about.
Everyone is envious.
The boss said: “It’s been a long time since you came here, did you quarrel?”
Xu Ruoxing smiled: “No.”
She said she paid, nodded with the boss, returned to her seat, Su Yi raised her head, and heard Xu Ruoxing say: “Okay, let’s go back.”
Su Yin hummed, and followed Xu Ruoxing out of the food stall. There was less noise outside, but the air was stuffy and there were not many people. Under the streetlights, Xu Ruoxing and Su Yi were walking side by side. Xu Ruoxing asked, “Did you come by car?”
Su Yi said, “I came by taxi.”
She was not in good condition and didn’t dare to drive. Xu Ruoxing nodded and said, “I came here by car.”
Su Yi watched her shake the car key, and looked at the curb next to her. There is no parking lot here, they are all parked beside the curb. She looked around but didn’t see Xu Ruoxing’s car. Xu Ruoxing said: “It’s a bit far on the opposite side , There are so many people here at night, it’s hard to park.”
Su Yi agreed.
The two walked side by side on the small road, and a little girl who looked like a junior high school, holding ice cream in her hand, was eating ice cream while talking on the phone, saw that Xu Ruoxing and Su Yi were amazed, and took a second look, Xu Ruoxing also Take a look at her.
When he got to the car, Xu Ruoxing said, “Get in the car first, I’ll go shopping.”
Su Yi watched her enter the convenience store nearby, but didn’t get in the car, but stood at the door of the co-pilot and waited. The street lights were not bright, and the flying insects circled around. The light and shadow shone on Su Yi’s body. In the dark, it was hard to see clearly, Xu Ruoxing quickly came out of the convenience store with a black bag in her hand, she walked up to Su Yi and handed it to her.
Su Yi lowered her head, looked at the black bag, and asked Xu Ruoxing, “What is this?”
Xu Ruoxing said: “My favorite ice cream in high school.”
Su Yi’s expression paused, her posture froze while holding the bag, and she quickly raised her eyes to look at Xu Ruoxing.
[If one day I am unhappy, can I go to you? 】
【Of course you can. If you are unhappy, I will treat you to my favorite ice cream. 】
Xu Ruoxing took a step forward, stood in front of Su Yi, stared at her, and asked with burning eyes: “Su Yi, why didn’t you come to see me that day?”
