Chapter 148: It was just wishful thinking after all



Xu Lin didn't say anything, just looked at her quietly. Looking at the girl's tearful face, his heart was slightly moved.

"I'm sorry." He thought about it again and again, but could only say these three words.

In this world, anything can be given as a gift, but feelings must be pure and must follow the heart.

Xu Xiaoxiao felt like the smile on her lips was about to freeze, but she still smiled stubbornly, looking at him as she always did. "I won't affect you, nor will I be a bother to you. If you ever find a girl you like, I will give up and never appear in your world again."

"I don't deserve this from you. You are a good girl and deserve someone better." He looked at her, but it seemed as if he was looking through her to see another person, the stubborn self in the past.

Isn't it just like her, refusing to give up, persisting stubbornly until the last moment.

Xu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything else. She turned around and waved goodbye to him. "I'm leaving now. Goodbye."

Xu Lin watched her leave without trying to keep her. He looked at the small figure walking on this path that he was very familiar with, with slow steps and slightly trembling shoulders.

He knew she was crying.

But he could only pretend not to know.

Since I can't respond to her, I can only remain silent. Being cold-blooded or ruthless is better than deceiving such a simple girl.

Because he knew very well that he couldn't let go of Yan Cuo yet. Even though she was so cruel and heartless to him, he still stubbornly loved her.

No, maybe it wasn't that she was cold-blooded, it was just wishful thinking. She was such a kind person and didn't want to hurt anyone.

He looked into the distance and the figure had disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

His eyes were a little dull as he looked in the direction of the village entrance. Then he smiled, turned around and walked towards home.

After all, I was just wishful thinking, thinking that she would come to find me.

Mother Xu was a little surprised to see him come back so soon. She looked behind him and saw nothing. "Where is that girl from before?"

"Let's go." He simply replied and wanted to turn around and go back to his room. Xu's mother looked at his back helplessly. Her son was in unrequited love, but the girl already had someone she liked. No matter how anxious she was, there was nothing she could do.

The girl just now looked quite good. She was small in stature, looked very smart and cute, especially the look in her eyes when she looked at her own son, which was full of admiration and love.

But seeing that the brat was so stubborn, I thought, forget it, let him be.

Xu Lin naturally didn't know about his mother's thoughts. After sending Xu Xiaoxiao away, he felt relieved and just hoped that she would not hold out hope in him anymore.

Anseong.

Time passed quickly, and Su He and Yan Cuo found a tutoring job. The tutor was a third-grade elementary school student with neither good nor bad grades. However, his mother was anxious and wanted to use the summer vacation to improve his grades, so she asked someone to find a tutor for him.

The little boy looked very well-behaved and had a cute mushroom-head hairstyle. They fell in love with him at first sight. The boy also cooperated with them and finished all the test papers they left behind and reviewed all the knowledge points one by one.

By the way, Su He is taking tutoring in mathematics, and Yan Cuo is taking tutoring in English.

The boy had a weak foundation in these two subjects. He was always just above the passing line and always ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the class. His mother was worried, but because she was very busy at work, she had to find a tutor for him.

Su He and Yan Cuo also taught him very attentively, and taught him everything they learned without hesitation. They would also give him some questions to do. In half a month, his basic knowledge had improved a lot, and his English pronunciation was becoming more and more standard. His mother was very happy and very grateful to them.

His mother paid a relatively high hourly wage of one hundred yuan an hour. They each took two hours of tutoring a day and could earn two hundred yuan.

This salary was a pleasant surprise for them. Before, they only wanted to earn some living expenses for college, but they didn’t expect that in just half a month, they had saved up 3,000 yuan.

After tutoring that day, Yan Cuo and Su He made an appointment to go to the mall together to buy some things for their family. They came to the mall that was a little far away from the town and walked towards the clothing area on the second floor.

The shopping guide received them warmly. Following the guide's advice, Yan Cuo bought two sets of clothes for his uncle and aunt respectively. Both were simple styles, but the colors were well matched. They were not the dull black and gray, and the brighter colors did not look too flashy, making people look younger.

After paying, Yan Cuo was ready to leave. Su He had also bought his things, and the two of them walked outside.

Yan Cuo glanced at the shopping bag in Su He's hand, seeing how bulging it was. "What did you buy? Such a big bag?"

"I bought several sets of clothes for my dad. He doesn't pay much attention to his clothes and can wear a few sets of clothes for several years. I told him many times to throw them away, but he refused to throw them away. Instead, he bought clothes for me frequently. He always said that girls of this age love beauty and he can't let me be worse than others." Su He glanced at the shopping bag and her eyes became wet when she thought of the man at home.

He gave all the good things to me, but didn't care about me at all. What a heavy love this is.

When I was a child, my teacher always said that fatherly love is like a mountain. Su Changsheng, this man, was taciturn, but he gave everything he had to me without asking for anything in return.

But she could see that his back was getting more and more bent, and there were more and more gray hairs on his head. He no longer had the endless strength he used to have, and could not lift himself easily. His hands were also becoming more and more rough. The only thing that remained the same was the sense of security and happiness he brought to her.

But she knew that he was no longer young, and he had supported the family alone. After so many years, he was a little tired. From now on, she would be his support, his everything.

Seeing that Su He was a little depressed, Yan Cuo patted her shoulder and said, "Well, it's a rare opportunity for you to come out, so you should be happy. Your uncle is so good to you, you should be happy. It is because of his selfless dedication to you that you have become such an outstanding person now."

"Yeah, you're right. I must be extra nice to him in the future." Su He clutched the bag in her hand and took Yan Cuo's hand as they walked down the elevator.

There is a department store on the first floor with all kinds of things. Yancuo looked around and finally chose two latex pillows for them. The shopping guide said that latex pillows are made of pure natural latex and have no harm or side effects on the human body. The pure natural material has good antibacterial and anti-mite effects. It is designed according to ergonomics to effectively improve the quality and effect of sleep.

Yancuo thought of his uncle who always complained about neck discomfort after waking up from sleep, so he decided to buy this for them to try.

Su He bought a massager for her father. Su Changsheng does heavy work and always suffers from back pain. She hopes this can make him feel more comfortable.
