24 Oncoming Heartbeat | How Good Are You?

Lin Weifeng said to Song Ze: "The first slap was a warning to you, don't hurt her."

Song Ze's eyes flashed with surprise: "You're not angry anymore?"

"I'm angry, but I'm not angry at you for getting married so abruptly. I'm angry at fate for playing a joke on Xiaoxiao. It's been going on for too long, long enough to give you the chance."

"What's wrong with me?" Song Ze puffed out his lips, pretending to be unconvinced. "Compared to those tall, rich and handsome ex-boyfriends, I'm not that bad, am I?"

"You two's relationship journeys are like a vein bursting countless times, and the other is like a needle inserted into an artery. They complement each other quite well."

"Is that a good thing..."

"Not convinced?"

"I obey."

Lin Weifeng's expression softened, and he continued, "The second slap was a blame on you. I blamed you for always saying I don't understand and that I don't need it."

Song Ze felt strange: "What?"

"We've known each other since we were little. Even though you let me spank you, scold you, vent my anger, and confide in you, I know you've always considered yourself my protective brother. When we were little, you'd fight when others laughed at my dad's arm. As we grew older, you often came to my house for dinner, but you were afraid the silence at home would remind everyone of the scars. You always emphasized that my parents loved me and that I had a happy family. I knew you didn't want me to be sad because of what happened to my dad. 'I'm happy, I'm not lacking in love,' that's almost become your mantra..."

Thinking of this, Lin Weifeng lowered his head and smiled.

Song Ze patted her shoulder and said in a joking manner, "I'm wrong. I went to your house for dinner because the food at my house is so, so, so unpalatable."

Lin Weifeng laughed and continued: "Indeed, I am very happy, but that doesn't mean I don't understand or need it. I..."

Song Ze tilted his head and imitated her tone: "You——"

Lin Weifeng was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said confidently, "I also have someone I like, I understand, and I need it."

Afterwards, large areas of blank space appeared in her mind. She was not in a hurry to fill them with any specific pictures. Such blank space made her feel at ease.

Song Ze shook his neck and smiled at her, obviously happy.

"Actually..." he stammered.

Lin Weifeng: "Hmm?"

"I want to say," Song Ze scratched the back of his head, "If I had known that our Miss Lin's taste was not that of that overseas student, you two... could have met earlier."

You, of course, refers to Lin Weifeng and Jiang Yu.

Lin Weifeng thought that Sun Zhengxiao probably told Song Ze everything.

Song Ze said: "When Xiaoxiao told me this, I didn't quite believe it. Gradually, I realized how stupid I was, both back then and now."

He must have known everything, and she had nothing to hide.

"Or else you would have wasted seven years?" Lin Weifeng glanced at him, and Song Ze quickly pressed his cheek and said "It hurts".

Song Ze finally said, "He's quite good. I'm not saying this just because he's my superior, nor am I speaking up for him just because he's my roommate. If you really want to count, between the two of you, I'm your in-laws."

She disdainfully said, "It's none of your business."

Tian Yusu finished taking the statement and came out. Song Ze helped them put their suitcases away and said goodbye.

The two sat in the car.

Lin Weifeng's phone automatically connected to Bluetooth, and a ding dong sounded, reminding him of an incoming call.

A string of phone calls appeared on the car screen, corresponding to a five-word note.

Tian Yusu read: "The bully can't receive it."

Lin Weifeng blushed, clicked to answer the call, and said, "Jiang Yu, why are you calling?"

Jiang Yu was also a little surprised and said, "Lin Weifeng, you came to me again this time."

"Did I look for you...?" Lin Weifeng's tone changed from firmness to questioning, because everything related to Jiang Yu kept going over in her mind.

At this moment, Tian Yusu leaned over and whispered, "Sister Breeze, why is my brother called 'Bully Can't Receive'? Is this note good or bad?"

“…”

Lin Weifeng shuddered, covered Tian Yusu's mouth with one hand, made a "hush" gesture with the other, and said, "Is this your brother?"

Tian Yusu nodded innocently.

Lin Weifeng vaguely remembered that when they were collecting evidence in Jiangguan Village, Jiang Meiyi had said that Jiang Yu's mother ran away after giving birth to him, and Jiang Sanlu had never remarried. Jiang Yu didn't seem like he had a biological sister, so he asked, "He's not a biological brother, is he?"

Tian Yusu nodded, then shook her head.

"ah?"

Tian Yusu: "It's hard to put it into words."

Lin Weifeng withdrew his hand, giving Tian Yusu a chance to answer, and said, "By the way, you just said he was your 'family-like' brother."

Tian Yusu said bluntly: "We have the same mother but different fathers, and both were abandoned by our mother."

Lin Weifeng was stunned and couldn't respond for a moment. It was as if he had heard someone else's secret and instinctively wanted to keep it secret.

Jiang Yu fell silent upon hearing this. He chuckled and called out, "Susu."

Tian Yusu shrugged innocently and quickly stated the facts: "Dajiang, I'm going to rent Sister Breeze's house now and I need a guarantor. Are you in Jingjiang?"

"Yes," Jiang Yu asked, "Susu, how did you two meet?"

"Just met."

"We just met," Jiang Yu paused, "Your sister Breeze said that if you're not familiar with her, you should call her by her full name."

Lin Weifeng: “…”

The two spoke in a natural and casual manner, as if they had already forgotten the broken blood relationship.

Tian Yusu only realized something now: "Dajiang, do you know Sister Breeze?"

Before they could explain, she realized, "Oh, right, right! The male protagonist in the news looks like you. Did you go abroad?"

Lin Weifeng asked curiously, "You are brother and sister, why do you seem so unfamiliar with each other? When you saw the news, shouldn't your first reaction be to recognize your brother?"

Tian Yusu groaned, "Dajiang and I are just siblings who exchange money for each other. We seldom see each other. I couldn't even recognize him just by watching the video." She deliberately revealed her pain in front of Lin Weifeng as if she was complaining, and described it with deep emotion.

Jiang Yu coughed dryly a few times.

Tian Yusu continued, "No one in Jiangguan Village likes our mother, and they don't like me either, especially Jiang Meiyi. She treats me like a rat."

Jiang Yu tried to stop her from speaking outrageously: "Add oil, add vinegar."

"That's right!" Tian Yusu straightened up and almost hit the roof of the car.

Lin Weifeng unconsciously made an "Oh" sound with her mouth. She touched Tian Yusu's head and felt a subtle and complex sour feeling in her heart, a little painful, as if she felt sorry for Tian Yusu, and also for Jiang Yu on the other end of the phone.

Jiang Yu coughed dryly a few times: "Susu."

Tian Yusu gave a wicked smile and said to the screen: "Why? You are not allowed to tell me. Since I am going to live in Sister Weifeng's house, I must let her know about me. By the way..." She glanced at Lin Weifeng smartly, then looked back at the screen, "By the way, let her know the emergency contact as well."

Jiang Yu didn't continue and said, "You guys are going to Yuhua Community, right?"

Tian Yusu: "Yeah."

"I'll be right there."

"You're coming?"

"Didn't you say we don't see each other often? I'm going to pay you more soon, so we need to see each other more often. We can't just be 'brother and sister who pay money'."

Lin Weifeng smiled and gave the specific address. Jiang Yu agreed and then the call stopped.

After a ding sound, Tian Yusu immediately grabbed Lin Weifeng's arm and said, "Sister Weifeng, I have a bad temper. What I said just now was 70% acting. Dajiang, he is a very good person."

Lin Weifeng saw Tian Yusu's anxiety.

No one can solve the complex problems left by blood ties, and no one can be a priceless supporter. It is a blessing to have a runner-up to whom you can vent your anger.

As an outsider to this family relationship, she could not make any comments and could only listen.

Tian Yusu said, "He only found out he had a helpless sister after graduating from the college entrance examination. For ten years, he never ignored her. Not only did he always use his scholarship and salary to support me, he also always said he would come to see me. But I didn't want to cause him any trouble, so I didn't see him. But sister, you know, I just know that with a brother like him around, I have the courage to be hated and the hope to improve myself."

Lin Weifeng's eyelashes trembled slightly: "Why are you telling me this?"

"The bully can't receive it," Tian Yusu repeated. "This note is unusual. It sounds like a secret crush! 'Received, not, received', it's obvious that Dajiang didn't reply to my sister. Dajiang is the kind of person who can disappear at any time. He's usually very busy and rarely replies to WeChat messages in time. It must have hurt my sister's heart. I'm afraid my sister has given up on him, so I'm saying something good for him."

"I don't even have his WeChat yet." Lin Weifeng replied with an important yet not-so-important message.

When Tian Yusu heard this, she worked very hard, "I'll send it to you, I'll send it to you. He's going too far."

Just then, a car with flashing lights passed by. She turned to look at the little girl in the glaring light, and Haoran took a few awkward breaths for a few seconds.

This family has a very shrewd eye.

Tian Yusu quickly pushed Jiang Yu's WeChat to Lin Weifeng, but she didn't open her phone to check it immediately.

She had been anxious about this, but at this moment, her heart was unexpectedly at peace.

Tian Yusu narrowed her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "Having a crush on Dajiang is pretty normal. Even many of my classmates have fallen for it."

"How old is your classmate?" Lin Weifeng asked vigilantly.

"People like us in our early twenties all feel that we are quite old. An excellent older man can also be a secret crush, not to mention that Dajiang is a handsome older man."

"How did you fall in love with her?" Lin Weifeng asked.

If the plane hadn't encountered a small chance of clear air turbulence, she herself wouldn't even have been able to recognize Jiang Yu, but these kids could actually do it.

This childish thought made her heart beat faster.

Tian Yusu, however, was surprisingly calm and said, "A parent-teacher conference. He helped me with one before."

Lin Weifeng pursed his lips.

Tian Yusu said: "Several of my classmates were driven by their older brothers and sisters. Dajiang was sitting in it and he really stood out. He charmed all of my classmates, and yes, some of the parents as well."

Lin Weifeng was speechless and could only say, "Exaggeration."

Tian Yusu giggled.

Lin Weifeng seemed a little hesitant to face the topic directly. He casually opened the snacks in the storage box and said, "You can eat all of these."

Although Tian Yusu was young, she knew a lot. She punctured Lin Weifeng's words, "Sister, you want to shut me up, but I'm a very aggressive and articulate person. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to live a wonderful life during the twenty years I was hated."

"I do want to shut you up." Lin Weifeng took the lead and turned around to fasten his seat belt.

"Sister!" Tian Yusu cried out.

Lin Weifeng said, "But I've heard enough of 'He's fine'."

As soon as she finished speaking, she started the car, turned up the music volume, and said nothing more, leaving Tian Yusu with an ambiguous smile.

Lin Weifeng always has an uncontrollable desire to take action against Jiang Yu.

It seemed that since she knew this name, she discovered that the people around her knew him better than she did.

De Luo said he was good, Gu Chengxiu said he was good, Song Ze said he was good, and Tian Yusu said he was good.

But how good he really was, Lin Weifeng didn't know. Perhaps he wasn't just good enough to be secretly loved by children.

Lin Weifeng began to feel a little eager to know how good he was, but at the same time, Lin Haidong's words were restraining her.

Do you think your father's behavior is good or bad?
