Chapter 203 Come back to me, please
Shuang Xu paused for a moment.
Shen Yu was originally sitting on the hood of the car. When he saw her come out, he put out the cigarette in his hand and stood up.
He Tingzhou held a scarf in his hand and said sarcastically, "Standing here in the early morning to enjoy the breeze, is the air in my house fresher?"
Shen Yu looked straight at Shuang Xu, his expression gentle but cautious: "I have something to tell you. Talk to me, okay?"
It was very strange for him to make such a request. Although he loved Shuang Xu to the extreme, a brother would not be so humble.
He Tingzhou glanced at Shuang Xu without leaving any trace.
She was in a bit of an unusual mood in the car yesterday.
It is even more abnormal for Shen Yu to wait here for a whole night.
This strange atmosphere struck a chord in He Tingzhou's mind. He put his hand around Shuang Xu's waist and opened the car door: "Why do you have to chat so early in the morning? You'll be late for work."
Shuang Xu didn't get in the car and said to him, "You go to the company first. I want to talk to my brother."
He Tingzhou stared at her for two seconds with an ambiguous look in his eyes, then let go of her hand and said in a generous tone like a queen: "Go ahead. Invite your brother in for a cup of tea. Don't talk too long. You have a meeting this morning."
After he finished speaking, he got into the car and drove out of the yard. The two figures in the rearview mirror became smaller and smaller.
Shuang Xu still called him as usual: "Brother, do you want to come in and sit down?"
How could Shen Yu not see the meaning of He Tingzhou's declaration of sovereignty? "Let's talk about it outside."
Shuang Xu didn't insist. He put his hands in his windbreaker pockets and walked forward with him for a while.
The plane trees lining the road are tall and elegant, their dense leaves turning from green to yellow; it is the colorful season.
Two people stood under the tree, one was gentle and dignified, the other was beautiful and gentle. The scene was very pleasing to the eye.
Cullinan stopped under the shadow of a tree at an inconspicuous corner of the road. Ever since He Tingzhou asked the bodyguard about Shuang Xu's itinerary yesterday and learned that she "went back to Shen's house and came out soon. Her eyes were red when she came out, and then she made an appointment with Miss Lu to go to the bar to get drunk," the temperature in the car dropped rapidly.
Old Xu didn't dare to say anything, and neither did the co-pilot Xu Zhen.
Old Xu glanced at Xu Zhen and said: What are you doing? You can't hear me from such a distance.
Xu Zhen: Don’t ask.
After a while, Old Xu glanced at him again: The 9:30 meeting is not about to start. If you don't leave now, you will miss it.
Xu Zhen: Don’t worry about it.
In the quiet rear compartment, across the street, He Tingzhou stared at that place from afar.
Obviously he had a lot to say, but when he stood in front of her and looked at her gentle eyes and brows, Shen Yu suddenly didn't know where to start.
After a moment of silence, he asked, "Did what Mom said to you yesterday make you unhappy?"
Frost Preface looked at the few sparse leaves on the ground, which were blown up by the wind and fluttered involuntarily for a moment before falling back to the ground.
"No. I was just a little confused and bewildered when I first heard it, but I feel better now."
"I'm sorry, Xiaojiu, I didn't mean to let you know this way." Shen Yu looked at her with an apologetic look in his eyes, "Did I make you sad?"
In fact, she felt a little sad, because he had seen all the suffering she had gone through.
But all those grievances are in the past, and there is no point in pursuing them. My disturbed thoughts yesterday have calmed down after a night.
"I wanted to hate you, but I couldn't. You never blamed me for the troubles I brought you. Brother, I understand why you didn't tell me. It's best for our relationship to remain as siblings. Lovers may stop loving each other one day, but family members are always the closest people. I understand, so you don't need to apologize to me."
She can always understand other people's difficulties from everyone's perspective, but her understanding only makes Shen Yu feel more guilty.
"Xiaojiu, you don't need to be so sensible all the time. You can blame me. It was my brother who made a mistake. I should have told you earlier that I liked you just as much. I should have held your hand earlier and stood with you. You should blame me because I let you down."
Shen Yu was so heartbroken that he took a step forward and stroked her cheek with his warm palm: "Xiao Jiu, give me another chance and come back to me, okay?"
Old Xu suddenly started coughing and quickly covered his mouth to try to swallow it back, but as the saying goes, the two things that people can't hide the most are coughing and love.
The more he tried to hold back, the more he scolded. Xu Zhen patted his back with a chuckle, "Second Uncle, just bear with it for a while."
Old Xu apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Mr. He, I have a slight cold."
But the person in the back seat simply ignored them. He Tingzhou's eyes suddenly turned cold before Old Xu coughed. He pushed open the car door and got out of the car with a gloomy mood.
Shuang Xu looked into Shen Yu's eyes. He didn't look well.
The temperature has dropped in the past few days and it's windy at night. He didn't sleep all night and was outside in the wind for a long time. There were slight red bloodshot eyes and blue stubble on his chin.
He seldom makes himself so miserable.
There was deep apology and pleading in his eyes. Shuang Xu had never seen him like this before.
After a moment of silence, she said, "Brother, I used to rely on you too much. I thought you were everything to me, so I always wanted to be with you forever. At that time, I didn't understand what love was."
Her tone was calm and peaceful, like a wave of coolness that seeped into Shen Yu's heart.
"So now you realize that you don't love me anymore?"
Shuang Xu shook his head: "I don't know if it was love, maybe I just didn't grow up, maybe it had a chance to be. Regardless of whether it was or not, it's gone."
Shen Yu's eyes dimmed visibly: "Don't you like me anymore?"
"Brother, I will always like you, but my love for you is nothing but that. You are the one closest to me no matter what."
Shuang Xu pulled his hand down, her movements were gentle but with unquestionable firmness.
"Someone has taught me what love is. Love is exclusive. You want to have him/her all to yourself and can't stand him/her looking at other people."
She smiled lightly, a smile that was a bit helpless and tolerant.
"He's really petty, and he's probably already a bit jealous."
Shen Yu's gaze passed her and moved to the back. Someone who had "left" twenty minutes ago was striding towards them.
Shuang Xu didn't even turn his head, but he seemed to have predicted his arrival long ago.
She said, "Brother, it's over."
All the grievances and sufferings I have experienced are in the past.
The feeling of liking him has passed.
She said, "Brother, you will bless us, right?"
Shen Yu's heart was finally chilled by the autumn wind. He missed the best opportunity that belonged to him, and it would be difficult for him to wait for the second turning point.
After a long while, he finally swallowed his regret and said to her, "How could I not bless you? Xiaojiu, I hope you are happy more than anyone else."
Shuang Xu narrowed his eyes: "Thank you, brother."
When He Tingzhou approached the two of them, he had easily put away the cold air that seemed to have come from Siberia, and he was so calm as if he had just "happened" to pass by.
His cold gaze swept across Shen Yu's body inch by inch, and then slowly slid across Shuang Xu's face.
"We haven't finished talking yet."
