In the original book, today was also the day when Su Yinyin and Lu Jingxu met with Lu's father and mother, but because Su Yinyin acted too domineering, she was disliked by the whole family.
In the novel, Su Yinyin was sent back by Lu Jingxu and lived alone for a few days before she ran back to beg Lu Jingxu to get back together.
And it was during these few days that Lu Jingxu and Zhao Jing had a series of encounters, just like the one now.
Zhao Jing appeared at Lu Jingxu's door drunk, and accidentally bumped into his chest, and then the two began to gradually thaw.
…
But the embarrassing thing is that Su Yinyin in this life is no longer the same person she used to be. She did not leave Lu Jingxu's house, and Lu Jingxu had not returned yet. Su Yinyin was wearing an apron and was confronting Zhao Jing, who had not figured things out yet.
"You are... Miss Zhao Jing, right?"
Zhao Jing awkwardly lifted her hair and forced a stiff smile at Su Yinyin that was uglier than crying.
"Sorry, I'm in the wrong place."
Just as he turned around, he suddenly stopped.
Su Yinyin glanced in the direction she was looking. Lu Jingxu was standing far away at the gate of the yard, looking over here with an unclear expression.
This is indeed the development.
She felt that it was appropriate for her to quietly leave the scene and wait for the two protagonists to finish their greetings.
Lu Jingxu noticed her and walked over with a normal expression.
"Jing Xu... So you still live here? Sorry, I drank a little too much today and went to the wrong place."
This villa is located far away from the city. In the novel, it was a property that Lu Jingxu originally planned to give to Zhao Jing after graduation. Unexpectedly, Zhao Jing later entered the entertainment industry and got a new boyfriend. The key to this house was returned as soon as it was given away.
Zhao Jing's eyes became blurry again, and she took a few unsteady steps towards Lu Jingxu.
…
Nothing else to say.
Su Yinyin felt that she deserved the Best Actress award.
With just a few bounces, it's hard to fake being tipsy unless you're really tipsy.
She thought she was very sensible and shrank her head behind the door. Just as she was about to hide sideways inside the house, a cold voice sounded from behind her.
"What are you going to do?"
It was obvious that these words were not directed at Zhao Jing. Su Yinyin was a little suspicious and stuck half of her head out of the door again. After confirming that Lu Jingxu's cold eyes were looking at her, she raised the spatula that she had just put back.
"Cook."
Zhao Jing stood there, seeming a little embarrassed at being ignored, tears welling up in her eyes.
"I'm sorry to bother you. I thought... the news said you two were just—"
"Miss Zhao, if you're drunk, don't run around. As a public figure, you should be more aware of this. If you need to go home, I don't mind calling Sun Qingyan and asking him to come and pick you up."
Sun Qingyan is Zhao Jing's public boyfriend in the circle. It is said that he has a powerful background and an unpredictable life experience. It can be said that he was the one who brought Zhao Jing to prominence, which is mentioned in the novel.
Zhao Jing is a heroine in the novel who is extremely representative of utilitarianism. If Lu Jingxu's sincerity was not valuable enough, it would probably not be so easy for her to break up with her boyfriend in the later period.
She was interrupted by Lu Jingxu before she could finish her words, and her face darkened after hearing what he said.
Lu Jingxu brushed past her as if nothing had happened and walked up the stairs.
Zhao Jing suddenly ran over, grabbed his arm, her eyes pleading, and she was about to cry, not caring that Su Yinyin was still standing beside her, her voice choked with sobs.
"Jingxu, have we really come to this point?"
Su Yinyin stood there, neither walking nor talking. Seeing Lu Jingxu's furrowed brow, she waved her spatula and said, "Well... I'm going in to cook first. You guys can chat."
Then she ran to the kitchen, otherwise her braised chicken would have been stewed to pieces.
I made another dish of minced eggplant and meat and brought it to the table, only to find that Lu Jingxu had returned.
His tie and jacket were draped over the back of the chair, and a few buttons of his black shirt were undone, revealing the lines of his neck. A few strands of hair hung on his forehead, and his chest muscles, which were trying to be covered up, made him look even more abstinent.
He just held his head with his eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking. He only opened his eyes when Su Yinyin brought the dishes to the table.
His eyes were like a deep lake, usually only flickering a few quiet ripples, and he seemed a little curious.
"Can you cook?"
Su Yinyin thought about the original owner's past. She had been living alone in a rented house outside the school since high school. Apart from cooking, she probably could also fix water pipes and toilets.
She served the corn and pork ribs soup with an insulated towel, wearing a Hello Kitty sleeve that she had just found from somewhere, and blew on her fingers that had been accidentally burned.
"It might not suit your eating habits, but you should still try it. Chinese food is also delicious."
Lu Jingxu studied abroad at university, and probably developed a habit. The meal they had yesterday was also French cuisine. Su Yinyin couldn't cook that, she could only cook home-cooked meals.
He hesitated as he picked up the chopsticks, but finally put the piece of chicken into his mouth after looking it over.
Although Su Yinyin rarely cooked for others, she was still looking forward to the other party's reaction. She was looking forward to Lu Jingxu's evaluation and rubbed her hands nervously.
"How is it? It's okay, right?"
Lu Jingxu chewed two bites and swallowed them, showing no emotion as usual. No one knew what he felt. He only said "hmm" and put down his chopsticks and stood up.
"I just ate and I can't eat anymore. You can eat it yourself."
Perhaps it was because he had just seen his old lover, so it was normal for him to feel a little down. Su Yinyin understood and watched him go, but she just stared at the table of dishes and felt a sweet burden on her stomach.
Halfway through the meal, the phone screen suddenly lit up and a message alert sounded.
Su Yinyin picked up her phone and saw a friend request from someone whose profile picture was a golden retriever with a big gold chain, with the note: Han Yuze.
Su Yinyin had heard of this person before. He was a well-known rich second-generation young man in the entertainment industry. He was handsome and rich. He was also a guest on the show that she would probably participate in later. He was mentioned in the novel.
She thought about it and accepted the friend request. Then she heard footsteps on the stairs behind her. Lu Jingxu walked down. His collar was no longer open like before, and the buttons on his clothes had been buttoned.
"Whose news?"
After Su Yinyin confirmed that he was talking to her, she picked up her phone and waved it over there: "I don't know him, it seems to be Mr. Han Yuze, a senior in the industry."
Lu Jingxu's dark eyes dimmed.
"What kind of teacher is he to you?"
