Chapter Seven, The Young Boy's Troublesome Thoughts are Shrouded in Mist (07).
After arriving home, Shen Yu took a shower and changed into clean clothes, followed the doctor's advice and took medicine, then went back to the room to rest.
For example, after she became his girlfriend, he completely regarded her as his own. When he needed her help, he would not be polite or subtle. Similarly, if she refused, he would not take it to heart.
After being together, Shen Yu and Chen Jizhou happily invited Ge Yao to have a matchmaking meal.
He proposed to board at her house, fearing that she might have a high fever again in the middle of the night. Her refusal was ignored by him, and today's dinner conversation seemed to have had no effect at all.
Lu Mingtong frowned and said almost instinctively, "This is not the kind of relationship I want."
Shen Yu feels that Chen Jizhou can help her calm down and enter another stage of planning her life steadily.
She dragged his arm forward, urging him, "Let's go."
Chen Jizhou has a calm temperament, and he will not easily lose his stance on important or trivial matters.
Shen Yu was lying on the bed, covered with the air-conditioned quilt, with long hair scattered, looking listless, without a trace of the usual sharpness.
Silent all the way.
Lu Mingtong was dragged by her and stumbled a step, and finally gave up and followed her in despair. He despised himself in his heart.
That tasting event was like a blind date scene, where everyone didn't know each other, but with a series of activities arranged by Ge Yao, it didn't feel awkward.
Finally, she asked Shen Yu, "Is it you? Can you bear the accumulated grievances caused by those trivial matters?"
Shen Yu looked at him and said, "Perhaps, I shouldn't have been soft-hearted from the beginning. I spent so much time convincing myself and repeatedly compromising in anger. If I had known that one day, this soft-heartedness and compromise would be misleading, then..."
Lu Mingtong paused.
On the opposite side, Lu Mingtong was not polite, calling out one after another.
Don't play these tricks with me.
Mostly because he comes from a single-parent family and has an average family background, which has shaped his strong sense of purpose and execution. He performed poorly in the college entrance examination and only attended an ordinary undergraduate school. However, through postgraduate and doctoral studies, he has gradually advanced. The university he is currently pursuing his doctorate at is only a "211" institution, but the academic quality is high. If he can graduate successfully, his future prospects will undoubtedly be limitless.
Shen Yu's relationship with Ge Yao, it is impossible not to show support.
If he doesn't sleep here, she has no choice but to let him stay. She can't call the police to kick him out.
Shen Yusheng's voice was deep and slow: "What I am saying is not to speak well of Chen Jizhou. Earlier this year, I fell seriously ill and Chen Jizhou took care of me for three or four days, even helping me with my clothes. His mother also prepared meals for me three times a day, afraid that I wouldn't be used to the food. Regardless of my relationship with him, even if we may not end up together, I still owe his mother for her kindness in taking care of me."
In my opinion, that's what it means.
This conversation seems to have been brewing for a long time. He spoke without pausing, his voice still as emotionless and cold as ever. "I know you've always wanted to get rid of me, but please find someone who truly deserves you. I don't approve of Chen Jizhou. If you insist on thinking he's suitable, remember, I never intended to be a good person. Tell him not to give me the opportunity to break you two apart."
Shen Yu paused for a moment, walked over, and said softly, "I thought you had left."
He forced her to the point of desperation, with a menacing demeanor. He personally handed her the sharp blade and told her that only she had the right to harm him, and he would never retaliate.
The words I'm about to say, you definitely won't like to hear.
When landing, there was still some dizziness.
Do you want us to keep being awkward like this?
Lù Míngtóng ... ... She understood that she was being asked not to drive him away with harsh words and looks anymore. As long as she found the person she entrusted her life to, he would take the initiative to leave.
The relationship between Shen Yu and Chen Jizhou originated from a wedding of one of her undergraduate classmates. He was a guest from the groom's side, not a close relative.
So," he looked up and met her misty eyes, paused for a moment, but still said firmly, "Translate your words for me, and I, not Chen Jizhou, will also be a stranger to someone else. If you have to choose, you will never choose me."
Lu Mingtong drove her back to the hotel, picked up her belongings, checked out, and then drove back to Qingshui Street.
Adding him didn't lead to any conversation. It wasn't until about ten days later, when it was almost two weeks, that Chen Jizhou sent her a message. A certain movie was going to do a roadshow at South City University of Technology and he asked if she was interested.
The effect of the medicine seems to have kicked in, and she is feeling slightly drowsy.
How about pork bone ramen? Crab roe soup dumplings? Steam pot chicken? ... ...
He is the kind of person who, when you are sick, will take you to see a doctor and get medicine, follow the doctor's advice to take care of you, until your illness is completely gone; but when he hears you cough, he won't think to close the cold wind outside the window for you.
Shen Yu immediately stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and asked, "Aren't you hungry?"
Lu Mingtong gave her a cold glance and turned around to prepare to pull the car door.
In the bedroom, the light is dim, with only a bedside lamp burning.
How about crab roe soup dumplings? There is a restaurant nearby, not far away.
Shen Yu met Chen Jizhou in this way.
Pause for a moment, he finally said: "...when you get married, I will resign."
When I was about to close my eyes, I heard a knocking sound. Lu Mingtong said outside the door, "I want to talk to you for a moment."
As his seat was close to his own, Shen Yu observed him for a moment.
After Shen Yu finished the infusion, he called the nurse to remove the needle.
Upon hearing this, Lu Mingtong turned his head to look at her.
The store is a ten-minute drive away.
A refreshing and upright appearance, with a slightly restrained expression. She inexplicably concluded that he was a STEM major.
It's all what he loves to eat.
He thought so, but didn't say it out loud. He just glanced at her and then withdrew his gaze, stood up, walked towards the door, and closed it behind him as he left.
Lu Mingtong, are you really not in pain?
Afterwards, Ge Yao's evaluation was, "You two are like an old married couple." She explained that it was neither a compliment nor an insult, just a neutral evaluation. If what you are seeking is a stable and long-lasting married life, Chen Jizhou is undoubtedly a good choice. However, the premise is that you must also be a laid-back person who doesn't pay attention to details.
At that time, he was already studying for his Ph.D. in the capital and came back to rest during the summer vacation.
However, there was a sentence that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time, and she couldn't hold it in any longer, so she finally asked.
You are misinterpreting my meaning.
He is actually extremely afraid that Shen Yu will not argue with him. If he says anything that doesn't make her angry, it's just because he has already touched the absolute boundary that she will never retreat for him.
...Without Chen Jizhou, there will be someone else...There will always be such a person...Why do I force you to accept this? Because I am selfish...Liu Mingtong, don't you really understand? My dad is in Yincheng and has decided not to come back for a lifetime; my mom left her hometown, and I can only see her once every three years...You are one of my few relatives, and I don't want us to have to go our separate ways.
Shen Yu ordered a tray of soup dumplings for him and a bowl of porridge for himself. After the high fever subsided, his throat felt bitter and he had no appetite.
He often tells her that his family cannot provide him with too much help, and that he can only rely on himself for everything. In his life, he believes that it is a constant struggle with no retreat.
Lu Mingtong ignored her completely.
