Young Master Xiang, Leave Me Alone - C151
Chapter 151 – Daily Days
Sure enough, the little girl in his arms pushed him away with a glare. “Did you make peace with him? Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone abroad for so long and didn’t give me a call!”
“How could that be? How could I dare to ally with him to deceive you?” Sheng Jue grinned and laughed non-stop. Although he was saying good words, he was actually criticizing Xiang Chen Xi in his heart.
“How could it not be? When Chen Xi was in trouble, the two of you kept me in the dark. If I wasn’t smart, I would have been tricked by you two.”
However, Xiang Chen Shu did not want to let him off so easily. Instead, she brought up the matter of the old matter again, and brought up the matter of Xiang Chen Xi’s car accident once again. Thinking about this matter, Xiang Chen Shu felt extremely indignant, and even more so, did not allow Sheng Jue to touch her.
Sheng Jue never thought that Xiang Chen Shu would settle all of her old debts together. They had talked so much, and seeing that her emotions were stirred up, Sheng Jue felt even more helpless.
Sheng Jue flustered and comforted Xiang Chen Shu. The other bright and beautiful lights he had on him in the past had long disappeared, now he was only a lowly, pitiful person who had fallen in love, and his current mission was to make the person in his embrace happy. Therefore, Sheng Jue tried his best to tease Xiang Chen Shu, and he knew that Xiang Chen Shu had truly hurt her heart when it came to that matter.
Finally, he comforted the person in his embrace, and his emotions calmed down, Sheng Jue did not dare to move around, because the person in his embrace continued to lean on his arm. It had been a long time since there was any movement, and Sheng Jue was a little suspicious.
Sheng Jue lowered his head and looked at the scene before him. His eyes were closed and he frowned slightly. Sheng Jue sighed lightly and even if the girl in his arms was asleep, she would still not be able to sleep soundly.
Just like that, Sheng Jue stared at Xiang Chen Shu’s sleeping visage, remembered their first appearance, and then to this day, the hardships and tribulations that they had experienced, were also filled with difficulty.
Sigh.
Sheng Jue gently placed the person who was sleeping soundly on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and tidied up the wrinkles. Then, he placed his hand between her eyebrows to smooth her wrinkled eyebrows, looking at Xiang Chen Shu’s sleeping face, Sheng Jue sat on the bed and looked up at the sky, seemingly feeling that this light was too dazzling. Afraid of shaking the person who was sleeping on the bed, Sheng Jue went over to the window and pulled down the french window to block the sunlight.
stared fixedly at Xiang Chen Shu’s sleeping face, and no one knew what she was thinking about.
Perhaps he had figured it out, Sheng Jue picked up the phone in his hands, lightly walked out, pulled the handle, and then turned around to leave. He once again shut the door behind him.
Sheng Jue went into the living room and sat down on the sofa. He lit up a cigarette and started smoking, the smoke obscuring his expression was unable to clearly see what he was thinking. Sheng Jue placed the cigarette in his hand onto the ashtray and extinguished it.
The bright sunlight shone in through the window and into the room, where tiny particles danced in the sunlight.
Sheng Jue smelled the smoke, and it seemed that it was too thick, he walked to the window and closed it. Fresh air rushed in and immediately filled the living room, and after a while the smell of smoke disappeared with the wind, Xiang Chen Shu did not like him to smoke, so he had to make sure that the room did not smell of smoke.
After doing everything, Sheng Jue took out his phone, opened up his contact number, found a familiar name and called it. Finally, after the bell rang four or five times, the call connected.
Before anyone could speak, Sheng Jue had already spoken.
“Are you not going to come back? Do you know how worried your sister is about you? You’ve been overseas for so long and yet you still didn’t know how to call your family.
Sheng Jue finished what he wanted to say, but the other end of the phone remained silent, followed by a female voice, “About that … Hello, Mr. Xiang Chen Xi is not here right now. ”
Hearing that voice, Sheng Jue was a little shocked, although he had been holding his phone without knowing what to say, he remained silent, until Tao Chu Liang who was on the other end of the phone became silent, “Sir, how may I help you? If there’s anything you need to convey, I can help you with it. If there’s nothing else, I… “I’ll hang up first.”
“I’m fine.”
Sheng Jue, who was silent for two seconds, spat out two words. It was too scary, he needed silence.
Sheng Jue knew that the person on the other end had hung up the phone. Sheng Jue felt that he should calm down by smoking a cigarette, could it be that this Xiang Chen Xi brat had already found Tao Chu Liang?
But if he had already found it, why didn’t he bring it home with him? Sheng Jue was very suspicious, and could not understand no matter how he thought about it, so he could only puff on his cigarette.
On the other hand, Tao Chu Liang suspiciously hung up the phone and placed it inside Xiang Chen Xi’s bag, muttering to himself, “It really is a strange person, why didn’t he tell me why he was calling?”
These words were heard by Xiang Chen Xi who was carrying some small dishes over, “What happened?”
“Uncle, your phone rang just now, so I picked it up for you. But after he called, he didn’t say anything. It’s so strange.”
Tao Chu Liang stood up and reached out to help Xiang Chen Xi place the plate on the table. On the table, there was a stove with a pot on top of it.
It turned out that after Tao Chu Liang and Xiang Chen Xi shared rewards from the Maple Forest, the sky gradually turned dark. As the lanterns lit up, multicolored neon lights hung on every door, covering up the dark night as if it was made of ink.
That’s right, this place was overseas, unlike overseas, the time here was different from the time at home.
Tao Chu Liang and Xiang Chen Xi sat at a hotpot restaurant not too far away from the Maple Forest. After ordering the dishes, the bottom of the hotpot came up very quickly. When Xiang Chen Xi went to prepare the dishes, Tao Chu Liang sat on his seat and played with the tableware in his hands boringly.
Tao Chu Liang told him about someone calling him just now. Xiang Chen Xi picked up the phone and saw that it was Sheng Jue’s, gave a light smile, then put down the phone and sat down, telling Tao Chu Liang to start eating.
Tao Chu Liang washed a piece of streaky pork and put it into a bowl to make it cold, then asked suspiciously, “Uncle, why didn’t you give him a call back? What if he had an emergency with you? ”
“No problem, let’s eat.”
Even though he said that, Xiang Chen Xi was a little concerned about Sheng Jue’s reason for calling. Did something happen to his elder sister? But with that guy here, it shouldn’t be a problem.
Xiang Chen Xi paid the bill and walked down the dim yellow street with Tao Chu Liang. On the street, there was a dim yellow light from a street lamp and a cold breeze blew away the warmth in the shop.
“Let’s go, I’ll send you back.”
Tao Chu Liang took out his phone and nodded, agreeing to Xiang Chen Xi’s words.
It was already late, and he had been out for so long. It was about time to go back, or his parents would worry.
Xiang Chen Xi stopped a taxi and told them the location of the village. The driver thought that it was too remote and it was dark, he was unwilling to go. Xiang Chen Xi gave him twice the fare and the driver hesitated for a bit before gritting his teeth and agreeing.
However, when they reached the entrance of the village, Xiang Chen Xi gave the money to the driver and told him to wait for a while. When he got back to his car, he would first give him half of the money, and when the driver saw the money, he did not care about it anymore.
Xiang Chen Xi walked Tao Chu Liang all the way to the door, and Tao Chu Liang said, “Mr. Xiang, thank you for sending me back. Come in and have a seat, how about some water?”
“No need, quickly go in. It’s windy outside, I should go back too. Otherwise, that driver would talk about it again.”
Seeing the driver’s personality, Tao Chu Liang did not keep stopping, but told Xiang Chen Xi to be careful and return back to watch the road.
When he arrived at the entrance of the village, the driver was already tired of waiting. He got out of the carriage and leaned on the door of the carriage, chewing on a piece of dog tail grass that had gotten used to. Seeing Xiang Chen Xi’s figure, he spat the dog tail out and opened the door to get in.
When the car drove back to town, there weren’t many people left on the street. The driver gave the driver money and drove away. In his words, he was in a hurry to go home to eat.
As Xiang Chen Xi walked along the road, blowing on the cool breeze, he suddenly remembered that when he was at the hotpot restaurant, Sheng Jue had called him. Although he did not know what was going on, he had to call him back to ask.
The call connected, but no one answered. Xiang Chen Xi called again without giving up, but still, no one answered. Xiang Chen Xi’s face changed drastically, his heart dropped, and he was a little afraid.
Just as Xiang Chen Xi was thinking, the phone in his hand rang, he looked down and saw that it was Sheng Jue’s, and picked it up.
“Hello?”
“You brat, you finally know that you’ve called back. You’ve been overseas for so long and you still don’t know to call home. Are you making your sister worry about you?”
The sounds came from all directions, it sounded normal, so Xiang Chen Xi was not afraid at all, thus he decided to stay at home with Sheng Jue.
