Licking Dog 21

Chapter 21

Before returning home that night, Yu's father had a vague feeling of worry.

He originally thought that his daughter was close to Jiang Yi because she had not completely let go of Jiang Li in her heart. If she stayed with Jiang Yi often, it would be easy for her to get in touch with Jiang Li.

This is what Yu's father fears the most. He is afraid that Yu Rubing will be unable to let go of her old love and rekindle her relationship with Jiang Li, and go back to her old humble and confused path.

But after what happened tonight, Yu's father finally put his concerns aside.

Although Yu's father was not with Yu Rubing the whole time tonight, he saw everything Yu Rubing did.

Yu's father saw with his own eyes how indifferent Yu Rubing was towards Jiang Li. When Yu Rubing said before that she had let Jiang Li go, Yu's father was a little hesitant to believe it, but today he really believed it.

He could see that even if Jiang Li wanted to go back to Yu Rubing, even if he repented and admitted his mistakes to Yu Rubing, he was already out of the game with Yu Rubing, and Yu Rubing would never give him another chance.

Father Yu was relieved.

Reassured, Father Yu looked at Jiang Yi again, especially tonight, following Yu Rubing diligently. Even if Yu Rubing ignored him, he seemed to be willing to come close to her.

Although Yu's father had a bad first impression of Jiang Yi, after several contacts, his opinion of Jiang Yi changed a lot.

No matter what, Jiang Yi is many times better than Jiang Li.

Yu Rubing wants to be with Jiang Yi, and her father thinks it’s not impossible. But what about Xing Ke?

Xing Ke is a perfect candidate for a son-in-law.

Yu's father was the first to become worried.

It's all my fault! I blame myself for giving birth to a daughter who is too perfect. Each of her suitors is so outstanding.

Yu Rubing also felt that her father's recent distress seemed to have changed again...

Yu Rubing's father never asked her whether she had contacted Xing Ke recently. Instead, Yu Rubing became closer to Xing Ke. Surprisingly, Yu's father spoke well of Jiang Yi and asked Yu Rubing to contact Jiang Yi when she had time.

Yu Rubing was almost stunned and asked her father, "Dad, do you think Jiang Yi is better than Xing Ke now?"

Yu's father became distressed. How could this be compared?

Xing Ke is gentle, considerate, gentlemanly, elegant, and impeccable. Even with a magnifying glass, no flaws can be found in him. Jiang Yi, on the other hand, is smart, quick-witted, talented, and enthusiastic. He is also a candidate who is one in a million.

Comparing the two, Xing Ke has very good conditions, but compared with Jiang Yi, Xing Ke is a bit old-fashioned. On the contrary, it is more interesting to be with Jiang Yi.

Father Yu was also confused, so he left the decision to Yu Rubing. "Just pick whichever one you like."

Yu Rubing: “…”

I thought to myself: Dad, you really misunderstood. This is not a question of being picky or not. Both of them are my friends. I have explained this in advance. They both know that making more friends is better. This shouldn't require a multiple-choice question, right?

Yu Rubing wanted to explain it clearly, but later found out that not only her father misunderstood her, but outsiders also misunderstood her.

Yu Rubing had heard this more than once: in the wealthy circles of City A, the eldest sons of the Jiang and Xing families were vying for the favor of the eldest daughter of the Yu family, fighting openly and secretly, and trying to sabotage each other. It seemed as if the whole world knew about it.

As a senior novel fan, Yu Rubing even saw that the fan fiction author launched a series of creations with the three as the background, such as "The First Female Lead of a Wealthy Family"; "The Female Lead of a Wealthy Family and the Domineering Boss Become My Little Follower"; "After the Female Supporting Character Successfully Counterattacks, Two Bosses Treat Me as Their Sweetheart"; "The Female Supporting Character's Guide to Abusing Scumbags After Rebirth"

The more Yu Rubing read this long and eloquent article, the more frightened she became. She wondered which great writer had a burst of inspiration and revealed all her secrets!

But you know what, there are a few articles that are really well written, and Yu Rubing has been working overtime and staying up late to follow them recently.

As time went on, not only did outsiders misunderstand the story, but even the two rumored male protagonists seemed to be too immersed in the role.

Xing Ke and Yu Rubing were having dinner together. Her expression was extremely heavy, as if she was carrying a heavy burden. Finally, Xing Ke couldn't help but ask her, "Compared to Jiang Yi, do you prefer him more in your heart?"

Xing Ke asked cautiously, but the look of anticipation on her face made Yu Rubing's heart sink, and she immediately lost her appetite. "There are rumors spreading like wildfire about us online. Many people are calling me a green tea girl, saying that if you like someone you should express your feelings, but if you don't love them you should keep your distance. I think they're right. I'm sorry, Xing Ke."

Xing Ke was completely surprised that Yu Rubing would actually say that. She panicked and frantically explained, "No, no, no! It has nothing to do with you. You made it clear from the beginning. There was no ambiguity. I crossed the line. I'm the one who should apologize."

Xing Ke said this and lowered his head.

Although Xing Ke said this, she could see that Xing Ke no longer regarded her as just a friend. If she continued to pretend to be deaf and dumb like this, she was afraid that they would not even be friends anymore.

Xing Ke is a very good person and the partner that most women dream of. He should meet a girl who loves him very much, instead of being like Yu Rubing, who consumes his patience that belongs to his girlfriend, ignores his feelings, and treats him as a partner and a buddy.

This relationship should not continue because it is too unfair to Xing Ke.

Yu Rubing stood up and prepared to leave. Xing Ke panicked, knowing that this separation was different from the previous ones, and it meant the end of this confusing relationship. Xing Ke asked absentmindedly, "Will we have a chance to eat together again in the future?"

Yu Rubing nodded and told Xing Ke, "When the rumors are gone and your worries are resolved, I will definitely not miss you no matter which delicious restaurant you find."

After Yu Rubing finished speaking, Xing Ke suppressed her heartache and smiled, "Okay! It's a deal!"

Yu Rubing saw the pain in his eyes, but she had to do this. In fact, this was not entirely a bad thing for Xing Ke. Although Xing Ke was smart and had great social skills, he was very naive in the field of love. After a heart-wrenching baptism, he might gain new growth and insights.

When Xing Ke has untied his knot with Rubing, and when he meets someone of the opposite sex who amazes him in the future, he will be able to handle it more maturely and appropriately, and at least he will not get stuck in the mud and get hurt.

This road must be taken. Yu Rubing's wishful thinking is like paying tuition. Fortunately, at least Yu Rubing is a conscientious teacher.

After they parted that day, Xing Ke never contacted Yu Rubing again. Xing Ke was an extremely restrained person. No matter how reluctant he was, he would never get entangled with Yu Rubing.

Compared to Xing Ke, Jiang Yi is much more difficult to deal with.

At the beginning, Yu Rubing told Jiang Yi that Jiang's father opposed her contact with Jiang Yi because of the rumors that Yu Rubing was driving the Jiang family away.

Jiang Yi listened and said that he understood and knew what to do. Yu Rubing was still confused, but was later impressed by Jiang Yi's operation.

The fact that Jiang Yi and Xing Ke were jealous of each other had long been known to everyone in the circle. The rumors that Yu Rubing was chasing the Jiang family had long been self-defeating and forgotten by everyone.

Yu Rubing finally realized why Jiang Yi acted like a bootlicker the more crowded the place was. When rumors started to spread, Jiang Yi not only did not stop in time, but continued to act in the direction of the rumors. Someone even asked him in person if he was pursuing Yu Rubing, and Jiang Yi actually admitted it generously.

When others asked him whether he succeeded in pursuing her, and mentioned Xing Ke with ill intentions, Jiang Yi not only did not avoid suspicion, but admitted it generously and said frankly that it didn't matter if he had multiple rivals in love.

Not only Jiang Yi, but even Old Man Jiang has become Jiang Yi's strongest assist. Whenever he is in a crowded occasion, he will mention the fact that Jiang Yi is pursuing Yu Rubing. He will first praise Yu Rubing a lot, then praise Jiang Yi, and finally analyze the latest development of their relationship.

Yu Rubing even guessed that the cause of most of the rumors was probably inseparable from Mr. Jiang’s latest analysis.

Whenever someone mentioned Yu Rubing's pursuit of Jiang Li in the past, Old Master Jiang would first give a series of denials and then retaliate harshly.

The old man's ability to argue with people is really amazing.

Over time, the incident faded into oblivion. No one mentioned Yu Rubing's insults to the Jiang family again. If anyone were to bring it up again, they would surely be met with a wave of disdain. "Isn't that person a fool?" The Jiang family's father and mother were so eager to praise Yu Rubing, how could he say such an insulting thing?

Yu's father also gradually changed his impression of Jiang Yi, and later praised him highly, but soon he turned against him and felt that Jiang Yi was more suitable for Yu Rubing than Xing Ke.

Father Yu tried to persuade his daughter, "Bingbing! Have you met Jiang Yi recently? Speaking of this young man, he's a hundred times better than his brother. Not only is he smart and motivated, but he's also very kind to you. Bygones are bygones. Don't be prejudiced against the rest of the Jiang family just because of what happened with Jiang Li. You need to look at things with a clear distinction between love and hate. Jiang Yi is a really good young man. You should give him some thought."

Yu Rubing; "..." Aren't you the one who has always been prejudiced against the Jiang family?

Other fathers are reluctant to let their daughters get married, but Yu's father is afraid that his daughter will miss a good marriage.

Okay! I'll hide!

There was no other way! Yu Rubing went abroad to relax and unwind under the pretext of developing overseas markets.

On the blue sea, the sailboat was sailing leisurely, the waves were hitting the shore, and the tourists were enjoying the beautiful scenery on the beach. There was nothing better than enjoying an afternoon of sunbathing. Yu Rubing changed her lying position and sighed leisurely and contentedly.

In less than a moment, she heard the sound of quarreling, and the voice was particularly familiar. Yu Rubing took a look through her sunglasses and saw two old acquaintances, He Chao, who had been angered to death by her, and Mu Xiaoyun, who was once regarded as the white moonlight in He Chao's heart.

Yu Rubing saw that He Chao was angry and wanted to leave, but Mu Xiaoyun grabbed his arm and said, "He Chao, don't go! I did something wrong. You can scold me or hit me, but don't leave without saying goodbye. I finally found you, don't abandon me again."

"Mu Xiaoyun!" He Chao said impatiently, "Stop pestering me! We ended a long time ago. I gave you a large breakup fee. Aren't you satisfied?"

"I want you!" Mu Xiaoyun screamed at the top of her lungs. "Don't even think about using money to get rid of me. I, Mu Xiaoyun, am not that easy to get rid of!"

He Chao seemed to have lost his patience for bickering and pushed Mu Xiaoyun mercilessly. Seeing Mu Xiaoyun fall on the beach, he glared at her with disgust, then hurried away without looking back.

Mu Xiaoyun burst into tears on the beach. Not long after, her crying attracted the police, who quickly took Mu Xiaoyun away.

Looking at what just happened, Yu Rubing shrugged his shoulders. Who should he blame?

Although Yu Rubing was abroad, she still had contact with people in China. She learned from her sisters that He Chao and Mu Xiaoyun were not married, and that He Chao had dumped Mu Xiaoyun.

The heroine is really a bitch. She is engaged to He Chao, but she is also ambiguous with the third male. After He Chao finds out, he abandons her like a piece of trash. The third male is a liar who is good at sweet talk. After the heroine is cheated of her money and sex, she soon discovers the true face of the third male.

The heroine turned back and wanted to reconcile with the second male lead, but the second male lead no longer liked her.

To be honest, in the original plot, there was indeed a third male character. When the heroine was almost deceived by him, the hero stepped in to deal with the third male character, so the heroine was safe and sound.

But the plot starts over again, the male protagonist can hardly protect himself and is struggling to make ends meet, so how can he have the energy to care about the female protagonist?

In this world, after the heroine encountered setbacks one after another, it seemed that the heroine's halo as the protagonist was also in trouble. In the past, the heroine could be forgiven for her misbehavior, but this time she failed miserably.

Yu Rubing sighed, it is true that what you do will be punished by heaven!

She was sighing in her heart when a voice beside her said, "Sister, you are so confused even with a handsome man like me by your side. Is it because he is too honest that you can't feel his presence?"

That's right! Yu Rubing fled abroad, and Jiang Yi, this guy, dropped everything he was doing and ran to find Yu Rubing.

Yu Rubing couldn't drive him away, nor could she hide from him, so she simply kept him and made him her assistant.

Thinking about it, she had been abroad for more than a year and was a little tired. She missed her parents and wanted to be at home.

Yu Rubing said after a long while: "Jiang Yi, let's go home?"

Jiang Yi asked nonchalantly, "What are you going home for?"

Yu Rubing added, "You're tired from walking around outside. Let's go home and get married, shall we?"

Jiang Yi hadn't reacted yet, so he just agreed out of habit, "Okay! Get married!"

"What?" Jiang Yi reacted. Frightened to the point of falling off the recliner, his face covered in sand. He raised his rather pitiful face and gazed at Yu Rubing, his heart torn between his conscience and his own. "Sister, isn't today April Fools' Day?"

"I know!" Yu Rubing was amused by his little expression and was also moved by his persistence. She reached out and cupped his handsome face, gently kissing him on the lips. "I'm not kidding. I'm saying, let's get married!"

Jiang Yi was completely frozen. He was slowly reacting, reacting to what this news meant. Gradually, a smile appeared on his face. Jiang Yi realized that the wish he had been looking forward to had come true. This was great news.

Jiang Yi suddenly rushed back, kissed Yu Rubing hard, and told her in a trembling voice: "Let's go back immediately! Get married right away!"

The azure coastline stretches as far as the eye can see, rows of seagulls soar in the sky, and the sea breeze in the distance comes like waves, stirring the most sensitive part of people's hearts.
