Chapter 54 Who is this wild man again?
After having a quarrel with his grandmother, Shi Huai decided to stay in Changjing, but for a moment he didn't know what to do and felt a little confused about the future.
Song Xuwen was preparing to work on cultural relics restoration, but she encountered many setbacks. She was not very talented and her family did not support her. It was her passion that kept her going.
When they were in school, the two of them often imagined their future together, but reality always dealt them a heavy blow.
Song Xuwen comes from a wealthy family. Her father runs a company in Changjing. Song Xuwen is the only child and the apple of her father's eye. However, her father doesn't want her to work in the related industry, so he asks her to intern in his own company immediately after graduation and become the heir.
But Song Xuwen was a stubborn person, and she wouldn't give up her long-cherished passion just because of a few words from her father. The two argued from the moment graduation approached to the moment they took graduation photos and received their diplomas. He even suspended Song Xuwen's credit card. During that time, Shi Huai supported Song Xuwen.
Seeing that Song Xuwen refused, Song's father asked Shi Huai to persuade her. Shi Huai, of course, stood on the side of her best friend. Song's father repeatedly asked her which museum and cultural relic garden Song Xuwen had submitted her resume to, but Shi Huai kept her mouth shut and didn't reveal a single word.
If Song's father knew about this, he would definitely use his connections to get Song Xuwen fired and not allow her to work in the museum.
Over time, Song's father no longer placed his hopes on her, and never asked Shi Huai about Song Xuwen's whereabouts. She thought Song's father had compromised.
Until she was called home for dinner by Tang Xiaoling, Tang Xiaoling would occasionally bring up the topic and take the opportunity to show concern for Song Xuwen's employment prospects.
At that time, Shi Huai treated Tang Xiaoling as his own mother and did not have any defenses against her, so he told her where Song Xuwen had submitted his resume as if they were chatting about family matters.
As a result, the next day, Song Xuwen came to him and asked him if he had told his father where she had submitted her resume.
Shi Huai was confused.
Song Xuwen showed Shi Huai the transfer records from his father to Tang Xiaoling, "Your stepmother took my father's money and tricked you into telling me where I submitted my resume. Now all the museums in Changjing have rejected me!"
Hearing these words, Shi Huai turned pale and asked Song Xuwen if he had made a mistake. His stepmother had always been gentle and kind, how could she do such a thing?
Seeing that Shi Huai still had complete faith in Tang Xiao Ling, Song Xu Wen sneered, "Your stepmother is treating you like a Japanese devil! Shi Huai, can you wake up?"
"Impossible, Xu Wen, you must have made a mistake."
Seeing that Shi Huai was still stubborn, Song Xuwen directly pointed out: "Only you know where I submitted my resume. Has your stepmother ever mentioned me in front of you?"
Shi Huai pursed his lips and spoke after a long while, "My mother treats me very well and treats you as her own daughter. She will definitely not do such a thing for this money. I believe her."
Song Xuwen was so disappointed with Shi Huai that he couldn't understand whether Tang Xiaoling had drugged Shi Huai and even wanted to hide something for his stepmother.
"Shi Huai! Your stepmother knows that you have been lacking love since childhood and have no father or mother to support you, so she takes full advantage of your dependence on her. Can't you see it?" Song Xuwen hit the nail on the head, slammed the table and stood up angrily.
The words "lack of love" and "no father or mother" pierced Shi Huai's heart like needles. Her temper flared up, and she slammed the table and stood up, saying without hesitation, "Song Xuwen, you don't need to sow discord between me and my mother!"
"Your stepmother is not a good person, stay away from her." Song Xuwen knew that his careless words had hurt Shi Huai's most vulnerable and sensitive part, and he couldn't help feeling regretful.
Shi Huai's eyes were red, with a faint light shining through them: "What about you? Knowing that I lack love and am a jinx without parents, do you feel free to hurt me with these words?"
The two people parted ways unhappily after the argument and neither of them contacted the other again.
Recalling the scene of quarreling with Song Xuwen, Shi Huai sighed heavily.
Song Xuwen had reminded her of this back then, but she remained indifferent and stubbornly believed that Tang Xiaoling was right.
When he thought of the past, Shi Huai buried his head in Zhou Jibai's chest, wishing he could travel back in time and slap the silly and ridiculous self a few times to wake him up.
Zhou Jibai lowered his eyes and looked at Shi Huai who was squirming in his arms, his eyebrows raised: "Is he possessed by a ghost?"
Shi Huai clenched his fist and hit Zhou Jibai hard on the chest: "No! Go to sleep!"
After beating Zhou Jibai, Shi Huai immediately rolled off him, turned his back to him, and wrapped the entire quilt around himself, leaving no room for Zhou Jibai.
Zhou Jibai tutted his words: "You're such a grown-up kid, and you're still trying to grab the quilt from others."
He didn't indulge Shi Huai, so he pulled up the corner of the quilt that Shi Huai had pressed under her body, and pulled out half of the quilt to cover himself. But he was afraid that Shi Huai would make a fuss, so he hugged Shi Huai from behind and held her tightly.
"If you don't sleep, I'll spank you."
“…”

The first thing Shi Huai did after waking up the next day was to take out his mobile phone and check WeChat to see if anyone had sent him a message.
The first one pinned to the top is.
[Xubao]: See you at the usual place, 12 noon.
She still talks very little when chatting or typing, just like before. In fact, who would have thought in real life that this cold and beautiful woman is such a chatterbox.
Shi Huai looked at the words above again and again and almost screamed!
She was so excited that she didn't know what to say. She kept pounding the mattress beside her.
There were bang bang bang sounds.
"You're murdering your husband so early in the morning." Zhou Jibai was hit hard by the person next to him before he woke up. The pain made him lose all his sleepiness. He sat up directly from the bed and looked at Shi Huai with a somewhat gloomy look in his eyes.
The next moment, Shi Huai threw himself into Zhou Jibai's arms: "She pays attention to me!"
Zhou Jibai was confused, his brows furrowed. "Him?"
Shi Huai smiled like a fool and nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"Who is he? The person on WeChat yesterday?" Maybe it was because he was still sleepy, but Zhou Jibai's face looked a little gloomy, as if he was not very happy.
Shi Huai smiled and nodded again.
Then she looked down at her time and saw that it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
Today is the weekend, and she and Zhou Jibai will sleep until noon as usual.
But Shi Huai had an appointment now, so there was no time to say anything more. Afraid of being late, he quickly got out of bed and dressed up.
Looking at Shi Huai's busy back, Zhou Jibai's mouth twitched.
