Chapter 687 His Choice
"When you are discharged from the hospital, you can live with me."
Song Shuran muttered: You are scarier than grandma, okay?
Lu Jinghuai chuckled as he looked at the girl in front of him and said casually, "What did you say?"
Song Shuran quickly shook her head: "Nothing? Nothing?" Her movements were a bit too rough and it hurt her head, so she simply stopped talking and moving.
Lu Jinghuai stretched out his hand to touch the girl's face, but Song Shuran subconsciously avoided it. Lu Jinghuai's hand froze in mid-air. After a while, his hand landed on the girl's head: "Shushu, don't be afraid of me!"
Song Shuran felt a little puzzled and discovered that her uncle had become a little different.
She glanced at Lu Jinghuai cautiously and asked curiously, "Uncle, are you having that?"
"What?"
I was dumped by a famous celebrity lady, and since then I have never been able to recover, and I have no...' Before she could finish the rest of the words, she felt a man's sharp gaze, and Song Shuran shut up tactfully.
Lu Jinghuai withdrew his hand and spoke again: "Are you hungry? I'll have someone bring some food over!"
Song Shuran nodded: "Hungry, very hungry!"
Looking at the girl's anxious face, Lu Jinghuai kept smiling. He took out his cell phone and prepared to make a call. Unexpectedly, before he could dial out, another call came in. He stood up as if nothing had happened, walked out of the ward and answered the call.
"What is it?"
A man's anxious voice came from the phone: "How is Ranran? I saw the video!"
"Don't appear in front of Ranran again."
Chu Xiuci on the other end of the phone was stunned for half a second, then said, "What do you mean?"
"Literally, I'll talk to Xie Qi. As for what's going on between you and Xie Qi, I have no say in it. I'll do whatever you ask, as long as you tell me!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone. Chu Xiuci listened to the beeping sound coming from the phone, and then threw the phone heavily to the ground. The originally intact phone was instantly broken into pieces.
He burst into laughter, and as he laughed, tears fell from his eyes unconsciously.
Chu Xiuci suddenly realized that he and Song Shuran were just the same kind of people, but Song Shuran was luckier because Lu Jinghuai really cared about her and loved her. But what about him?
All of them were just a substitute. Now that the original owner was well, he became a dispensable person. So when Lu Jinghuai found him and made such a request, he agreed, not for anything else, but just to see Xie Qi's reaction.
But to his disappointment, Xie Qi didn't care at all and stayed with that person the whole time.
He sat on the ground with a dejected look on his face until night fell. When he heard a sound from the living room, Chu Xiuci suddenly stood up and opened the door. He saw Xie Qi walked in and saw the young man standing at the door. He frowned slightly and showed a trace of impatience on his face: "So you are here!"
Chu Xiuci's heart tightened slightly, but before he could speak, Xie Qi continued, "I'm just here to get something!"
Chu Xiuci smiled bitterly in his heart and said lightly: "You won't come again in the future?"
Xie Qi was stunned for half a second. For some reason, he felt a little annoyed and simply kept silent.
"Xie Qi, I suddenly realized that you are really bad!" But he knew it, but still fell into it.
Xie Qi didn't say anything. Chu Xiuci continued, "After my mother found out about us, she begged me to leave you and asked me to promise never to see you again. But I didn't dare to say a word. What should I say? I can't do it.
I could only remain silent and let her beat me to vent her unhappiness. Before she died, she said that what she wanted most in this life was to see me get married and have children, but..."
Before he could finish his words, Xie Qi suddenly interrupted him, saying, "You can start over now, find a woman, get married, and have children."
Chu Xiuci laughed heartily upon hearing this: "Xie Qi, you're a piece of shit, a ungrateful bastard. Get lost and never show up again!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Qi's expressionless face curled up into an evil smile. He then walked towards Chu Xiuci step by step, stretched out his hand and grabbed his throat: "Ha~ What? You forgot how you wagged your tail and begged for mercy under me, and now you have the guts to tell me to get lost?"
Chu Xiuci didn't say anything, just glanced aside and didn't look at him. Xie Qi continued, "Don't think I don't know what you and Lu Jinghuai did. What do you think of me? Chu Xiuci, I'm telling you, I've only ever treated you as a tool. Whatever you do, no matter who you marry, it won't affect me."
After saying that, he pushed him away fiercely and Chu Xiuci fell to the ground. He wanted to ask Xie Qi not to leave, but this was his only remaining self-esteem, and he didn't want to be crushed by the man in front of him.
He slowly stood up: "I know everything, but I still wanted to try it beyond my ability. As expected, I was too stupid!"
Xie Qi was about to say something when his hand in the bag made a noise. He took it out and took a look at it. He simply turned around and left without taking anything.
As he was leaving, he said, "My things, I'll come get them next time!"
After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for Chu Xiuci to speak.
Suddenly, the entire living room fell into silence again. Chu Xiuci slowly stood up and walked back and forth throughout the 200-square-meter apartment, not leaving out any tiny corner and leaving his footprints everywhere. Then he walked to the bathroom and saw that all the things were in pairs. He put away his toothbrush, towel, and all the things that belonged to him.
By the time he finished cleaning up, it was already early morning. He didn't sleep, but just sat in the living room in a daze until the sky turned pale. The sunlight shone on his face, which was a little dazzling. He stretched out his hand to shield his face and looked at the glowing ring on his ring finger.
It looks so beautiful!
It's a pity that it's just a worthless silver ring, if it contains his feelings.
He reached out and took off the ring, placed it on the table in the living room, got up and went to the bathroom, and after washing up, he went out directly.
Chu Xiuci went to the cemetery and looked at the smiling photo on the tombstone. He slowly knelt on the ground and whispered, "Mom, I'm sorry, I've disappointed you! I haven't been able to be filial to you as your son in this life. I'll try again in the next life. I'll definitely be obedient in the next life!"
From morning dew to evening glow, Chu Xiuci finally got up and left the cemetery. Sitting in the car, he took out his cell phone and made a call. As soon as the call was connected, he said, "I've thought about what I want to do."
A deep voice came from the phone: "Just think it over. Consider it as compensation for your broken finger!"
