It’s Colder Today - Chapter 54
When Chu Yue called her, the two were making out on the sofa, and the game interface that always appeared on the TV was replaced by the love movie that Shi Yun wanted to watch.
When Shi Yun saw that Chu Yue was in the note on the call, he pushed away Wei Zongying who was next to him, picked up his phone and went to the balcony.
Before Wei Congying was pushed away by her, he saw Shi Yun’s mobile phone screen. The note was Chu Yue, and he knew it was Jiang Xuyang’s wife.
It was stuffy on the balcony, and the sliding door locked the air-conditioning in the living room. As soon as I came out of the living room, the pores of the skin secreted thin thin sweat.
Shi Yun’s palms were sweating, and the phone that was attached to his ears and the side of his face began to feel hot: “Hello.”
Chu Yue on the other end of the phone said, “Hello, Shi Yun.”
Chu Yue resigned from his previous company and is now looking for a job. When the interview was overwhelmed, she also got good news.
It’s time for Shi Yun and Wei Zong to start dating again.
Chu Yue suddenly felt relieved by her old father, and then good news came one after another. She found a studio that was developing well.
After the boss came back from further studies in the UK, he opened a private jewelry customization studio in the capital. The boss is a few years older than her, about the same age, and also a woman, so the employee benefits are particularly good.
Just a few days after being happy, Chu Yue suddenly thought of one thing, that is why she brought Jiang Xuyang to He Sui’s wedding.
He Sui and He Yun are blood brothers, so they have a bit of resemblance. Wei Congying looks like He Yun again, and Jiang Xuyang will be able to spot blind spots when he sees He Sui, which is really difficult.
At the time of her wedding, because He Sui didn’t come when the toast was held at the dinner table, Jiang Xuyang didn’t meet him either.
Now she and Jiang Xuyang are in a husband and wife relationship, and it’s not a simple boyfriend and girlfriend. It’s justified if they don’t take care of the family. They have certificates. It’s not good to not bring Jiang Xuyang.
This problem troubled Chu Yue for several days, and she had no choice but to go to Shi Yun to discuss it.
Shi Yun knew that he was the ‘culprit’, and he was full of apologies: “I’ll treat you to dinner in two days, I’m sorry, I caused you a lot of trouble.”
Not long after Shi Yun’s call, when he returned to the living room from the balcony, Wei Zongying sat on the sofa and looked at her. He obviously didn’t say a word, but his whole body revealed curiosity about Shi Yun’s call.
The movie stayed where it was playing when he left to make a phone call, and a triangle shape appeared on the movie screen. It was Wei Congying who pressed the pause button when he went out.
It was a small move, but Shi Yun’s goodwill surged out.
After all, details determine success or failure.
Shi Yun walked up to him and sat down calmly. After going out for a while, he felt that his short sleeves were still hot.
Hugging him again, he is like an animal that sends out some kind of signal in spring, and now he is curious about Shi Yun.
I don’t know if it was intentional, but Shi Yun didn’t tell him anyway.
The movie is placed in the place where the hero and heroine chat after the event, casually chatting about the future where the two will hardly have an intersection.
The male protagonist said glibly that he has nothing to do every day, and all things are used to miss and love the female protagonist.
Shi Yun said to Wei Zong that this hero is like him.
Wei Cong should say, “I’m older than him.”
With that said, an elbow struck him. He intentionally leaned close to Shi Yun’s ear and snorted, and she broke free from the shackles of his embrace like an electric shock.
“Did you really pass the test when you were doing literature appreciation?” Shi Yun really wondered why his entry point and way of thinking were always so novel.
It was like when he told himself that “Dream of Red Mansions” was his first enlightenment book.
“You don’t understand. Our former teacher liked me.” Wei Congying took her arm and pulled her back, “Old literature with new insights.”
Shi Yun rejected Wei Zongying’s dinner invitation on the day he had a dinner appointment with Chu Yue.
I made an appointment with Chu Yue at a place relatively close to her new job.
Shi Yun arrived for a quarter of an hour first, stood at the door of the store and waited for a while, seeing many people entering one after another, fearing that they would have to wait in line outside the store when it was their turn, Shi Yun sent Chu Yue a message of himself After the news of going in first to occupy the seat, he walked towards the waiter at the door of the store.
With a standard smile on his face, the waiter asked Shi Yun first as a matter of routine.
Before the first sound of the word “two” was pronounced, a hand stretched out from behind her, and with its slender fingers, it made a “four” gesture to the waiter in front of her.
A familiar voice came from behind and above his head, and he said, “There are four of us.”
Turning around, it was indeed Wei Zongying.
The waiter brought the two of them into the shop. He picked up the teapot on the table and filled the teacup, handed it to Shi Yun, and poured himself another cup.
Everyone hasn’t arrived yet, so he is not in a hurry to order.
Ignoring Shi Yun who was staring at him, he drank barley tea as if drinking tea.
It’s as if she deliberately didn’t say that she called Chu Yue at that time, and he didn’t say why he appeared here now.
In the end, it was Shi Yun who was facing him with eyes that wanted to kill, and Wei Zongying spoke up.
At that time, he saw Chu Yue’s call note, and wondered if it would be easy for them to meet someday. A married person like Chu Yue would definitely tell Jiang Xuyang if he didn’t go home for dinner someday.
If I ask Shiyun to have dinner on the same day, if she refuses, it must be that day.
Reasoning skills that Conan can master after watching two episodes.
Talking about this matter with Jiang Xuyang, as expected of people who have been friends for many years, hit it off immediately, and then have a meal together.
Wei Congying took the teacup he had drunk, got up from the seat opposite Shi Yun, walked to sit next to her, and said, “I’m no longer an outsider, so you happen to have dinner with her, and we can have dinner together.”
He had already sent the location to Jiang Xuyang, and then let Shi Yun look at the menu in a sloppy manner.
When Chu Yue arrived, besides Shi Yun, there were two more people at the table. She threw the bag to Jiang Xuyang, and originally planned to discuss with Shi Yun how to deal with He Sui’s marriage during the meal, but now that the two people who are in the way are here, they can’t discuss it.
Looking at the two people who were speechless after taking their seats, Jiang Xuyang glanced at his wife and Shi Yun, and put Chu Yue’s bag aside: “Could it be that you have an appointment with someone else?”
Shi Yun didn’t speak, and pushed the menu that all three of them had read to Chu Yue. Chu Yue took the fountain pen and the menu, not afraid of Jiang Xuyang’s anger at all: “I want to speak ill of you two.”
Now that people have followed, there is no way to drive them back. When Chu Yue was looking at the menu, the waiter came over with a cardboard box for a lottery, no matter how much the consumption was, everyone at each table could participate.
“The grand prize is free, the first prize is 50% off, the second prize is 30% off, and the third prize is our signature wagyu beef…”
As the waiter said, he handed over the cardboard box, Wei Cong reached in and took one, followed by Jiang Xuyang, then Chu Yue, and finally Shi Yun.
Wei Congying opened it, and instead of writing a few prizes on the note, it said a pack of tissues.
Jiang Xuyang opened it, just like him.
Looking at the two packs of paper towels on the table, Chu Yue smiled contemptuously: “How lucky, look at me.”
Unfold the unevenly folded slips of paper.
– A pack of tissues.
Wei Cong should dare to guarantee that the paper towel is definitely the big prize.
Chu Yue looked at the three packs of paper towels stacked up, and handed the drawn note to the waiter brother for recycling: “Is there a big prize inside?”
The waiter brother smiled: “Yes, it must be released.”
As he spoke, he looked at Shi Yun who hadn’t redeemed the prize in the end, and even Wei Zongying became curious. He leaned over to take a look, he was startled, and then immediately became excited: “Wow.”
The curiosity of the two people on the opposite side was immediately aroused.
Shi Yun: “First prize.”
Chu Yue and Jiang Xuyang didn’t believe it: “Is it true?”
Wei Congying held Shi Yun’s hand holding the paper voucher, and proudly raised it in front of the couple opposite, “Look.”
Black and red paper, clearly written, first prize.
The little waiter didn’t expect that someone actually won the lottery. He typed a stamp on Shi Yun’s note and told her to take the note and go to the checkout later when paying. It’s time to get a discount.
In this era of population explosion in Africa, I used to envy people with good grades when I was studying, but now I envy Ou Shen when I grow up. After all, luck is not something that can be obtained through hard work.
I don’t know who ordered a bottle of rice wine. The rice wine that costs more than 50 yuan on the Internet is sold at 200 yuan, which earns them 150 yuan in information fees, but fortunately, it tastes good.
The food was a bit salty, and the four of them ate for more than an hour. In the end, Shi Yun and Chu Yue returned home without saying a word about what they were supposed to discuss.
The four parted ways at the door of the shop, Shi Yun’s mouth was a little bitter, and today’s dinner was a little salty. Wei Cong was supposed to buy her milk tea, but she refused.
Next to it is a vending machine for drinks. At this time, there is nothing better than mineral water to quench your thirst.
In addition to the common mineral water, there is also an unheard of brand mineral water in an inconspicuous place. The four big characters “open the cover and win a prize” are printed on the packaging, which is a lot of marketing gimmicks.
After Shi Yun scanned the QR code, he bought a bottle.
The bottle cap was a bit difficult to unscrew, Wei Congying helped her unscrew it and returned it to her.
Shi Yun took two sips to relieve the bitter feeling of being salty in his mouth. There was still half of the mineral water. When he put the cap on again, the cap fell off, and the round thing rolled on the ground for a certain distance, and finally stopped.
Wei Congying bent down to pick up the bottle cap, it fell to the ground, and when he was about to throw it away for her, he saw that the bottle cap was printed – another bottle.
With an expression of half disbelief and a little panic, he turned the inside of the bottle cap to Shi Yun: “You’re really lucky today, aren’t you?”
Shi Yun took the bottle cap from his hand and took a closer look, it was really true.
Wei Congying took Shi Yun’s hand, looked at her hand and then at Shi Yun’s face, it was his girlfriend. In the end, he held up Shi Yun’s face in disbelief, and looked it over carefully. It was indeed his girlfriend.
Shi Yun was holding his face in his arms, and looked up, feeling uncomfortable: “What are you doing?”
Wei Congying let go of his hand, and stretched his arms around her: “It’s your good luck.”
Shi Yun has no interest in shopping malls. Wei Zong should have driven here when he came. He drank some rice wine for dinner. Although his alcohol intake is not high, he can’t do anything that violates discipline.
The car keys in my hand changed hands.
Shi Yun shook the key: “Let me drive.”
Perhaps because of the earthquake, Wei Cong should encourage himself to bravely face the obstacles that could not save others. When he really passed it, he would look back and find that it was only a low step.
She worked up her courage.
However, when she sat in the driver’s seat, looked at the clutch and thought of his car with manual transmission, her great courage collapsed halfway.
Shi Yun drove the car unskillfully, watched the road conditions nervously, and drove very slowly: “I hate manual transmission.”
Wei Congying helped her release the handbrake, put his hand on the gear, and helped her change gears while waiting for the red light: “Okay, I will buy an automatic transmission next time.”
Shi Yun took a quarter of an hour longer for the half-hour journey. Going down the East Ring Elevated Road, Wei Zongying looked at the fleeting street scene, saw a store passing by with excellent dynamic strength, and suddenly thought of something, asked Shi Yun to find a place to park at the gate of the community.
“What’s wrong?” Shi Yun was suspicious.
Wei Congying: “I suddenly thought of one thing. With this kind of luck today, the lottery for eating and drinking is wasted. Let’s go… buy! Lottery! Tickets.”
He said it very seriously, after Shi Yun parked the car, he really took Shi Yun to a lottery shop with an area of only a few square meters at the gate of the community.
Shi Yun bought a scratch-off ticket.
Seeing her scratching with her nails, Wei Congying gave her the car keys.
As the covering was scraped off by the car keys, Wei Congying leaned over to take a look.
A ten-dollar scratch-off, scratched out a thousand dollars. Although it’s not the first prize, it’s really good to let the boss say he’s lucky.
It was Shi Yun’s first time to buy scratch-offs, and only after reading the explanation below did she realize that she had won a thousand yuan, but compared to Wei Congying feeling that she was lucky today, she was not in a happy mood.
Wei Congying was just about to take the number slip she scraped out to claim the prize, but when he turned around, he saw her sullen. He leaned over and asked her in a low voice, “Why are you unhappy?”
Shi Yun: “I feel like I’ve used up all my good luck.”
As he spoke, Shi Yun handed the paper to the proprietress.
When the proprietress was about to pick it up, Wei Congying took the scratch card away on the way. The proprietress looked at him suspiciously: “What’s wrong?”
Wei Congying stuffed the paper back into Shi Yun’s hand, and pulled the man to leave: “I won’t change it.”
When he came out of the store, Shi Yun wondered, “Why didn’t you change it?”
Obviously he was the one who said he wanted to buy a lottery ticket, but he said he couldn’t change it.
Wei Cong responded: “Leave the good luck to you, what if it’s all spent.”
On the way back, Chu Yue yawned while driving. She always felt that she couldn’t get enough sleep recently.
When he yawned, tears came out of his eyes, and the street scene outside the car window was confusing.
Jiang Xuyang heard her yawn, and the next second he yawned too. After a few seconds of silence, the husband and wife laughed together in a tacit understanding.
Ten minutes before arriving home, Jiang Xuyang was dealing with some work matters on his mobile phone. The only sound in the car was his typing. After a while of crackling, he said, “Why did you think of having dinner with Shi Yun today?”
After asking, Jiang Xuyang obviously felt the car shake.
It’s too obvious not to call yourself. Jiang Xuyang added: “Be honest and be lenient.”
Chu Yue’s dead duck’s mouth was stiff, and he insisted not to let go: “It’s nothing.”
She had promised Shi Yun to keep the secret before. At that time, although the two people had no love, they were greedy for other things about each other. Now that the two are still in love, she should keep this secret in her stomach.
But she was still facing the trouble of how to bring Jiang Xuyang to He Sui’s wedding. The procrastination made her play it by ear. After all, when the boat reached the bridge…whether it was straight or sinking, let’s talk, it hadn’t reached the bridge yet.
But God didn’t give her this chance, she was tired and tired these days and her appetite was bad, so her mother brought her her favorite grandma’s food from Grandma Shi Yun.
When she called Chu Yue, Chu Yue was in a meeting, and her mother called her son-in-law.
By the way, he talked a lot and mentioned He Sui’s wedding to Jiang Xuyang.
Her mother cut off Jiang Xuyang’s secret journey to He Sui’s wedding with her own hands. Jiang Xuyang told her about it when he went to pick up Chu Yue from get off work at night, and she was much more excited than she imagined.
Chu Yue spoke quickly: “You know?”
As soon as these words came out of her mouth, Jiang Xuyang knew that she actually knew about He Sui’s wedding before, but she never told him about it.
He squinted and turned his head to look at her: “Chu Yue, explain to me clearly.”
Instead of calling his wife’s full name, Chu Yue knew he was angry.
But it’s hard to say.
As soon as she got home, she got out of the car and ran away with her grandmother’s food, but the monk could not run away from the temple. Jiang Xuyang was leisurely in the back, went to the kitchen drawer to dig out the spare key of the bedroom, and went upstairs unhurriedly.
It was easy to break through Chu Yue’s physical defense.
She looked at Jiang Xuyang who just came in directly. He still had a spare key in his hand. Chu Yue wanted to run even if he didn’t give up, but he had already blocked the door tightly.
Jiang Xuyang frowned seeing how nervous and unwilling she was to speak. Could it be that this marriage partner is her, what’s wrong with her? Her first love? So don’t want to let yourself go?
Knowing from the mother-in-law that He Sui is a neighbor who lives near her house, with this clue, Jiang Xuyang threatened, “If you don’t tell me, I’ll ask Shi Yun.”
However, everything is wrong.
Jiang Xuyang just thought that Shi Yun had known her since she was a child anyway, so that neighbor Shi Yun also knew each other. When the time comes, ask Shi Yun what he might know.
As soon as Shi Yun’s name came out, Chu Yue directly raised the white flag.
She thought that Jiang Xuyang knew something, and hurried forward to hold him back. The two of them switched roles, and she became the person blocking the door.
Chu Yue wanted to cry but had no tears: “I really can’t blame Shi Yun for this matter, the story inside is too complicated. I’ll tell you, but you must never tell Wei Congying, you swear.”
Jiang Xuyang was taken aback by these words, why does he feel that the truth is more complicated than the story he imagined?
Chu Yue forcibly broke Jiang Xuyang’s hand, and asked him to tie up three fingers, counting it as an oath, before explaining: “The groom’s brother is Shi Yun’s first love. Didn’t I tell you before that Wei Cong should look like a neighbor of mine? Is it his elder brother? This is the person. In the beginning, Shi Yun did get together because Wei Congying looked a lot like that brother, but now she really likes Wei Congying, so you can pretend you don’t know, okay?”
Jiang Xuyang didn’t agree. In his opinion, the three fingers that were forced out were nothing: “This kind of thing should be put on the table and discussed.”
“I can’t talk.” Chu Yue frowned, “That brother died, he was my brother’s comrade-in-arms. They went to Kokang three years ago to set up a mission together, and that mission was the man named Wu Tai who was shot before we got married. Related. They went to pick up a comrade-in-arms who was collecting criminal evidence, and when they were retreating, that brother died when he left to cover my brother and the witness.”
The word Wutai is very familiar.
It took Jiang Xuyang a while to think of a criminal who was executed in April in the first half of the year.
Chu Yue tried his best to convince the people in front of him that their family was ashamed of He Sui’s family, if He Yun hadn’t stepped forward, her brother might not be here now.
“I’ve already talked with Shi Yun. After the previous earthquake, she no longer considers Wei Cong to be a substitute for her ex-boyfriend. They are also in love now, and that person has died and will never appear again. Husband, just pretend you don’t know anything, okay?”
Let Chu Yue take the initiative to call “husband” to please, Jiang Xuyang knew that she was Shi Yun’s staunch supporter.
But he and Wei Congying grew up together, Jiang Xuyang didn’t say anything to death, neither promised her to keep it a secret, nor said that he would tell Wei Congying about it.
At first, I just wondered why my wife didn’t bring me to the wedding, but now that such a big event happened, Jiang Xuyang was a little at a loss,
Chu Yue told himself that after Jiang Xuyang found out about those things, he apologized to Shi Yun for a long time.
Shi Yun didn’t mean to shirk. After all, the biggest source of the mistake was her, and her motives were not pure. Even if she really fell in love now, it was the butterfly effect after her choice that caused the current situation.
Can’t blame others.
She could understand Jiao Fan, she couldn’t bear the price and risk of confessing this matter with Wei Congying. What’s more, there is no eight-year emotional foundation between them.
She admits to being selfish.
Every time the words came to her lips, she swallowed them again, always wanting to wait for the relationship to stabilize a little bit before opening her mouth and explaining to Wei Congying.
Jiang Xuyang didn’t do anything, Shi Yun was worried that after a few days, the world was still calm. She thought Jiang Xuyang had become a “partner”.
After worrying about it for a few days, she put it down and started to pick schools, and made a handicraft by the way.
Wei Congying was taken aback when he looked at the safety talisman handed over. He unwrapped the takeaway package, wondering why she suddenly gave him this.
Shi Yun cut up his own scratch-off, and finally left the winning number and stuffed it into the lucky charm: “It’s absolutely ingenious.”
“You just cut off a thousand yuan like this?” Wei Congying stopped unwrapping the takeout, and wiped his hands with a paper towel before connecting the safety talisman.
Shi Yun took a takeaway and sat cross-legged on a chair: “Didn’t you give me your watch as an exchange? It’s worth it to me.”
Wei Congying hung the safety talisman on the car key, which was a bit out of harmony, but he was willing and didn’t dislike the ugly.
Shi Yun has been staying with him for the past few days. She has been visiting foreign schools recently. Wei Congying looked at the brochures of those schools, and suddenly realized a question when he was dizzy: “Then we are going to have a foreign relationship?”
really.
Shi Yun looked up from the back of the computer. She was filling out the application materials, and the school she chose was in Germany.
The medical school ranks first in the world, and it is still in the application stage. It is still unknown whether it will receive an offer, and even if it is received, it will be a matter of next year.
Shi Yun got up from the ground with his notebook, kicked away the pillow under his buttocks, and sat down on the sofa next to him: “I don’t know if I can apply for it, it’s still early.”
“That has to be considered in advance. For example, I have to apply for a report half a year in advance for the procedure of being an accompanying student.” He raised his arm and stretched it behind Shi Yun, bringing her closer to him.
Hearing what he said with deep affection, Shi Yun stopped filling in the information and squinted at him.
With an expression that didn’t seem to trust him, Wei Zongying hooked her hair with his fingers and played around with that strand: “Didn’t I say that I look like the hero in that movie? Then I have nothing to do and have a lot of time to go to Love you.”
Shi Yun covered her ears: “Come on.”
He tore off Shi Yun’s hand.
Some callused hands held her wrist, and he shook her arm twice like playing with a doll.
Shi Yun: “You don’t have any poems or distant places?”
It is too easy to make another feel guilty by sacrificing for one.
After asking myself, I didn’t get an answer. The shaking of her hands also stopped, and she immediately realized that the moment of doubt, Wei Zongying’s poem and the distance were racing cars.
He still loves racing.
Wei Congying didn’t speak, and let go of her wrist, not disturbing her and continuing to fill in the information.
Watching her fill in the information and go through the formalities, the blank form was filled with English letters one by one, Wei Cong should have lost his previous calmness. I used to be able to joke that finding a boyfriend can be more international, but now I just feel unhappy.
He was sitting beside him wearing headphones and playing racing games, while Shi Yun was sitting by the sofa typing on the keyboard. All the information that needs to be filled in is in English, and it is not as fast as filling in Chinese. When I think about wording and making sentences, my shoulders suddenly feel heavy.
There was already an interface for clearing the level on the screen, but his expression did not show any joy of clearing the game, and his head rested on Shi Yun’s shoulder.
Shi Yun: “What’s wrong?”
He duplicity, said nothing.
Just after he finished speaking, he heard Shi Yun sigh softly. She took away the game controller she was not holding tightly, and replaced it with his notebook.
“Didn’t you study in the United States in high school? Help me see if there is anything wrong.”
Wei Congying slid the cursor, pursed his lips, was not very willing but checked: “I hated you in the first place, you are still so cruel now, let me help you correct your mistakes.”
Shi Yun reached out and broke his face, seeing his displeased expression, she was happy: “So reluctant to part with me?”
Wei Zong responded with a “hmm” and lowered his eyes: “But I still hope you go, life has to be tossed to be wonderful.”
What about him? Don’t race now, don’t you toss?
During the few seconds when she was thinking about something, the rapid ringing of the phone interrupted her thoughts.
It was Jiang Xuyang who called Wei Zongying, telling him to go to Haiyue tonight. Before hanging up the phone, he asked a lot: “Is Shi Yun with you? Bring her too.”
The author has something to say:
