Born as a space beast, Shi Chu possessed a strong sense of self-preservation and was inherently selfish. She revelled in luxury, indulging in fine food and clothing. She rejected phrases like “su...
Chapter 967 My Brother is a Spare Tire (7)
Song Shichu was cooking when he heard someone knocking on his door. The knocker was very loud and violent. Song Shichu immediately became furious. He turned off the fire and angrily opened the door.
The door opened too suddenly, and Bai Lishuang, who was still banging on it, was caught off guard and hit nothing. She used too much force and rushed into the Song family, almost falling to the ground.
"Bai Lishuang, what do you want to do by slamming my door so loudly?" When Song Shichu saw it was her, he became even angrier and asked with a cold face, crossing his arms.
When Bai Lishuang saw her indifferent expression, the impulse in her heart disappeared all of a sudden. After she regained her senses, she realized what she had done and her face turned red all of a sudden. But even though she was ashamed, she still asked what she wanted to ask.
"Shi Chu, is your brother at home? Why haven't I seen him recently?" Bai Lishuang asked while looking around the Song family.
Song Shichu sneered in his heart. This gentle and lovely heroine really would not come to see him for no reason. Song Shilu had been abroad for two or three months, and she finally remembered to look for him. This time, she probably wanted to use Song Shilu again.
Song Shichu was immediately very satisfied with his decision to urge Song Shilu to study abroad. If Song Shilu was still at home, even if he didn't want to have anything to do with Bai Lishuang anymore, the selfish and hypocritical Bai Lishuang would still come to him. After all, who would be willing to give up such a useful tool?
"Song Shilu has gone abroad to study, and he won't be back for the next three or four years." Song Shichu said happily, shaking off his previous irritability.
When Bai Lishuang heard her words, she was immediately shocked: "How can he go abroad?!"
"Why can't he go abroad?" Song Shichu narrowed his eyes and looked at her coldly. What did she think of Song Shilu? Was he a dog that she could call and dismiss at will? Song Shichu's happy mood immediately turned bad again.
"I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing. I didn't mean that Brother Shi Lu couldn't go abroad." Bai Lishuang also realized that what she said was inappropriate, and quickly made up for it, "I was just very surprised. After all, Brother Shi Lu never mentioned that he wanted to study abroad, and I had never heard of any news about him going abroad to study before..."
"There's nothing much to say. After all, my brother didn't expect to be able to successfully apply to a foreign university. If he told me in advance but failed to study abroad in the end, wouldn't it be a joke? So it's better to keep a low profile and leave quietly after the application is accepted." Song Shichu's words made sense. Bai Lishuang was speechless and could only stammer, "I didn't know that Brother Shilu wouldn't even tell me..."
"Aren't you busy with love and graduation? My brother doesn't want to bother you with these trivial matters. You both have graduated from college and will have your own lives. It's impossible for me to tell you everything, right?" Song Shichu said lightly.
When Bai Lishuang heard her words, she immediately remembered what Song Shilu told her to keep a distance after he knew she had a boyfriend. The discomfort and grievance in her heart suddenly surged out. She didn't expect Song Shilu to be so ruthless and keep a distance to the other side of the earth.
"Shichu, is your brother still blaming me?" Bai Lishuang asked Song Shichu aggrievedly.
Song Shichu was speechless: "Why does my brother blame you?"
"It's my fault for dating someone else." Bai Lishuang said with red eyes, "But I really love my boyfriend. Why can't he understand me? Why can't he continue to be my brother?"
"Stop! Song Shilu has only one sister, and that is me. Can you stop talking about being his sister so unilaterally? What you mean by being his sister is to call him over and dismiss him at will without any scruples, to use him with a clear conscience, and to keep him as a backup? This really makes me sick." Song Shichu sneered and exposed Bai Lishuang's face without any hesitation.
Bai Lishuang shook her head sadly: "I didn't treat him as a backup, nor did I use him. How could you think of me like this?"
Song Shichu looked at him expressionlessly: "Whether you did this or not, you know it very well. If you cared about him at all, you would not have failed to notice that he had been abroad for several months."
Bai Lishuang was choked by these words and was speechless. Song Shichu continued, "Now that you're looking for him again, you must be looking for him again. Are you fighting with your boyfriend? Do you need a spare tire who is always at your side and willing to work hard to stimulate your boyfriend and make him realize that you don't have to have him? Or maybe your work is not going well, and you want him to solve the problem, just like you asked him to help you write your paper before."
Bai Lishuang's shameful thoughts were exposed, just like being dragged naked under the scorching sun. She covered her face with shame and shook her head like a rattle, but she still denied it heartbrokenly: "No! I didn't! I didn't want to use him..."
Perhaps because her true identity was exposed by Song Shichu, she had no face to stay here any longer, so she stomped her feet in shame, covered her face, turned around and quickly fled from the Song family.
Song Shichu sneered and took out the floral water and sprayed it towards the place where Bai Lishuang had just stood. It was because the smell of white lotus and green tea was too strong and it polluted the air in her home.
Mother Song recently found a job organizing shelves in a shopping mall. It's an hourly job and she doesn't have to work too long, so she's in good health.
When she got home from get off work, Song Shichu had already cooked dinner.
"The dishes tonight are too rich, Xiaochu, we have to save some, and from now on we can just have two dishes." Mother Song said with a bit of pain when she saw the braised prawns, braised lion's head, blanched Chinese cabbage and tofu meatballs on the table.
"Mom, I took a part-time job today and earned a lot of money. These dishes tonight are to celebrate. I can support both of us, so there's no need to be too frugal. You work so hard and you need additional nutrition." Song Shichu explained. She did earn some money today, so naturally she wouldn't be so harsh on herself.
"You just spend money lavishly." Mother Song felt pained after hearing her words, but she did not lecture her anymore. After all, the money was earned by her daughter, and she would not interfere with where her daughter's money went.
"By the way, Bai Lishuang came to our house to look for Song Shilu again today. She didn't know that Song Shilu had gone abroad a long time ago. If she asks about her brother again in the future, don't tell her everything, especially the contact information. Remember?" Song Shichu remembered this and reminded his mother.
Mother Song nodded: "I know that your brother has finally decided to let her go. Of course, we can't let her contact your brother again, so as not to disrupt your brother's concentration on studying."
Song Shichu was very satisfied with his mother's idea. Fortunately, his mother was not a confused person. She thought Bai Lishuang and Song Shilu were more compatible and was determined to bring them together. Otherwise, Song Shichu would have had a headache.
