Chapter 338 He just left.
Huo Huai Sui patted Xie Qing Lan on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Study hard. I'm not as smart as you guys, and I don't even have the chance to become a cultured person."
Xie Qinglan asked directly, "Didn't you ever think about coming with me?"
Huo Huai Sui's eyes darted around for a moment, then she wiped her unclean fingers, which had been peeling an egg, on his clothes. When she looked up again, she had a look on her face that said, "Why would you have such a thought?"
“If you go to study abroad, what would I do? My mom has gone back to China, and I'd be so bored by myself. Besides, our country is so great, with hot pot, skewers, and spicy hot pot—so many delicious foods, and adorable giant pandas. I'm not going anywhere. But maybe I'll come visit you sometime if I'm in a good mood.”
Xie Qinglan raised an eyebrow, "So you're just going to leave your boyfriend to study alone outside like this?"
"You wouldn't dare, would you?" Huo Huai Sui frowned. "My fourth brother went abroad to study by himself when he was eighteen, and you're already twenty-five."
Xie Qinglan didn't play along with her nonsense and asked, "Aren't you worried that I'll be deceived by some vixen outside?"
Huo Huai Sui sighed, "That's all fate."
They weren't really a good match to begin with. They hadn't been together long, their relationship wasn't deep, and they didn't have any unforgettable memories. If he really fell for someone else, there was nothing she could do.
Xie Qinglan pinched her cheek, "You don't need to stay with me, just remember to miss me."
The breakup was just something he casually mentioned to Huo Huai'an; he couldn't bear to actually do it.
He doesn't want to break up. He can't bear to let her leave her hometown for him. So let's just have a long-distance relationship.
Huo Huai Sui's cheek was pinched, and he asked indistinctly, "What do you think?"
Xie Qinglan: "Say good morning when you wake up in the morning, and say good night before you go to bed at night."
Huo Huaisui asked, "What if you forget?"
Xie Qinglan: "Five thousand per sentence."
"Deal!" Only a fool wouldn't take the money.
A single sentence costs 5,000 yuan; "Good morning" plus "Good night" is 10,000 yuan; add in daily declarations of love on social media, and that's 20,000 yuan a day.
If this business can continue, she feels she can lie down and not have to go to work anymore.
Xie Qinglan: "If you don't post it one day, I'll assume you've fallen for someone else."
Huo Huai Sui subconsciously wanted to retort that there was no affection involved, but what came out was: "Then remember to pay me."
Xie Qinglan: "If I don't give it to you one day, just pretend I'm dead."
Huo Huaisui was stunned again.
She's not really stupid; his meaning couldn't be clearer.
He wouldn't let her wait for him.
I won't make her any promises.
Huo Huai Sui suddenly felt a little depressed.
Seriously, how can someone be so narcissistic?
She didn't want to wait.
Once I find someone I like better, I'll immediately replace him.
Huo Huaisui got off Xie Qinglan's lap. "It's getting late, you should go home quickly."
Xie Qinglan said with a hint of regret, "I thought you would ask me to stay."
"Dream on!" She only has one bed here, and the guest rooms are all empty. Where is he supposed to sleep? On the sofa?
Xie Qinglan did not persist.
For the next period of time, Xie Qinglan began to busy herself with matters concerning going abroad, while Huo Huaisui continued to work.
Originally, it was thought that it would take another month, but things didn't go as planned, and Xie Qinglan's departure abroad was brought forward.
Even though Xie Qinglan said there was no need to see him off, Huo Huaisui still took leave to see him off.
Xie Qinglan did not travel alone; she was accompanied by two male classmates.
Two male classmates approached Huo Huaisui when they saw him.
"Qinglan's girlfriend?"
Huo Huaisui: "Hello."
"Hello," the male student smiled. "You two chat."
The two students turned and walked away, making room for the young couple.
Huo Huai Sui said, "Don't be too touched. I just wanted to remind you not to forget to transfer money to me when you're too busy."
Xie Qinglan: "I won't forget."
The two chatted about other things for a while, and when it was almost time, the two male classmates loudly reminded Xie Qinglan.
Xie Qinglan glanced back at them, opened her arms and hugged Huo Huaisui. "I'm going in."
Huo Huaisui: "Oh."
Back in the car, Huo Huai Sui bent down to fasten his seatbelt when the person in the driver's seat suddenly leaned over.
Huo Huai Sui looked up. "What are you doing?"
Huo Huai'an sat back down. "Let's see if you've been crying."
Huo Huai Sui looked at him with disdain: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Huo Huai'an scoffed, "What did Xie Qinglan say to you?"
Huo Huaisui: "He didn't say anything."
"Didn't he say anything about breaking up, or ask you to wait for him?"
"……No."
Huo Huai'an reached out and patted her head. "Don't be silly. If you're gone, you're gone. There'll be someone better next time."
Huo Huai Sui ignored him and turned to look out the window.
Perhaps because they had just separated, Huo Huaisui didn't actually have much of a feeling.
Just like usual, when he's busy and we can't meet.
The only difference is that he doesn't reply to messages as promptly anymore.
She would often send him a "good morning" message, and he would reply with a "good night" message much later. Conversely, when she sent him a "good night" message, she would receive a "good morning" message in return.
Due to the time difference, and perhaps because he was genuinely busy, a whole week passed, and their chat history was filled with the same two sentences.
Before they knew it, it was time for Lu Fengqing and Gu Suixing to hold their wedding.
Everyone from the Xie family, except for Xie Qinglan, came.
When Ji Xueru saw Huo Huaisui, she immediately greeted him: "Suisui!"
"Who is this?" Yu Ran asked her daughter.
Ji Xueru had investigated Huo Huaisui and naturally knew that this was her future daughter-in-law's mother. She immediately introduced herself enthusiastically: "My name is Ji Xueru, and I am the mother of Sui Sui's boyfriend."
Upon hearing this, Yu Ran's usually expressionless face softened, and she extended her hand: "Yu Ran."
Upon seeing Yu Ran's attitude, Ji Xueru immediately understood and began chatting warmly with her future mother-in-law.
The conversation started with the two children's engagement, then moved on to where to hold the wedding, how many children to have after marriage, where the children would go to kindergarten, which primary school in City A was good, where to go for junior high and high school, and what major to choose in college...
Huo Huaisui was speechless for a while.
