"You're finally back!"
Gao Shanyue took Su Niannian's shoulder and said, "How could I miss Fubao's full moon banquet? Here, this is a gift."
She handed over a cute plush doll. This toy was a hot commodity in Hong Kong. Gao Shanyue had spent a lot of effort to get someone to help buy it with foreign exchange coupons through special channels. But Su Niannian didn't even look at the doll and directly stuffed the thing to Jiang Xiaofei. She grabbed Gao Shanyue's wrist and pulled him into the alley next to her.
"Come with me, I have something important to ask you."
The smile on Gao Shanyue's lips gradually disappeared. Seeing this, Shen Luo behind her hurriedly followed Jiang Xiaofei into the hotel, leaving enough space for the two of them. Gao Shanyue knew exactly what Su Niannian wanted to ask. After the ridiculous incident that night, she chose to escape. Su Niannian had no way to contact her at all, and she must have been extremely anxious.
"Is your brother not angry about what happened that night?!"
"Were you the one that night?!"
The two voices rang out at the same time. Looking closely, Su Niannian's eyes showed worry, heartache and fear, but there was no disgust towards her. Gao Shanyue's nervousness slightly dissipated. She touched her nose and said, "It was an accident. I'm sorry."
"Is this something that can be erased with just an apology? Shan Yue, what's going on?! You know, my brother is not that kind of person. He would never force himself on anyone. Most importantly, he has no memory of that night and even thinks that the person he slept with was Liu Tao. It's ridiculous. Fortunately, Tao Zi denied it and ignored him. My brother was almost driven crazy during this period..."
"You don't remember?!" Gao Shanyue's eyes darkened. After a while, she smiled bitterly and said, "Then just pretend it never happened."
Su Niannian was stunned for a second. Just as she was about to explode, Gao Shanyue said with a serious face, "Niannian, that night was indeed an accident. This incident is not a glorious thing for him, me, and Liu Tao. I am a bad person to begin with, and I don't need anyone to be responsible. The Gao family is even more turbulent. Jianshan... your brother is not suitable. If you regard me as a good friend, then let's stop here. Don't worry, I'm fine."
She took the opportunity to hug Su Niannian, and her embrace was as warm as ever.
Obviously, she was the one who was hurt.
Su Niannian felt indescribably uncomfortable. After weighing the pros and cons, Gao Shanyue's answer was the most correct choice. She frowned and said in a hoarse voice, "Shanyue, I am sorry for you."
"It's okay. I don't regret it. Just think of it as a dream."
This was the best dream she could ever have.
…
The return of Gao Shanyue and Shen Luo successfully pushed the atmosphere to its climax.
Except for Liu Tao, who had a quarrel with the Su family, everyone else was there. Maybe he had something on his mind. Even the usually naive Su Jianshan drank and was dizzy, insisting on going to find Liu Tao. He almost fell on the table and burst into tears. Everyone was there to watch the fun, except Gao Shanyue, who was a little jealous. She left early on the pretext of motion sickness without even looking at Su Jianshan again.
Su Niannian, who was finally free from her busy schedule, caught a glimpse of this scene and was so angry that her scalp was about to explode.
Most of the guests had left, and Wang Guifen and Huang Juan were packing up the leftovers. Su Jianshan leaned towards his sister as usual, with an intimate attitude, drunkenly: "Sister, go talk to Taozi, I can really take responsibility."
"Do you like Liu Tao so much?!" Su Niannian's voice rose noticeably. Even Gu Zhiye, who was helping to clean up, sensitively noticed that something was wrong with his young wife. After returning from Gao Shanyue, her mood seemed to be wrong, as if she was on the verge of collapse. Even when Gu Shutong came to make trouble, he had never seen her like this.
Su Jianshan was a rough man after drinking. He didn't notice anything wrong when he heard it. He nodded and said, "Yes, I will wait until she gives in."
Su Niannian couldn't bear it anymore, so she pushed her brother away and slapped him.
Wang Guifen, who was standing next to her, was so scared that she dumped all the leftovers on the ground. Others didn’t know, but she knew that Su Niannian liked Su Jianshan the most. She would get angry even if someone said something mean to her. Was the sky falling? She was dazzled! She actually saw Su Niannian angrily hitting Su Jianshan. The sound was so loud, and she must have been very strong!
The whole place was silent, and Gu Zhiye began to frown.
Su Jianshan was also stunned, a chill rising from his tailbone, startling the man soberly that he immediately covered his face, then asked cautiously: "Sister, does your hand hurt?!"
Su Niannian's tears fell in an instant.
Gu Zhiye hurried over and pulled her into his arms, glaring at Su Jianshan as a warning. The latter was so anxious that he didn't even know what mistake he had made.
The next second,
Su Niannian glared at Su Jianshan with red eyes and said firmly: "From now on, don't mention anything about Taozi again. I checked what happened that night and it was fake! You are completely dreaming!
Think about it, would Taozi really do something like that? They avoid you like a scourge, and they won't marry their daughter to you, brother, just take it as my plea, forget about her."
No matter how stupid Su Jianshan was, he could tell whether the joy of that night and the scars on his body were a dream or reality.
But Liu Tao's attitude really made him confused. Coupled with his sister's questioning and determination at this moment, he opened his mouth but couldn't say a word of objection. After a while, Su Jianshan lowered his eyebrows and nodded: "Well, I'll listen to you. I'll go home first."
This was the first time that Su Jianshan was beaten by his sister, and he felt extremely aggrieved. However, Gu Zhiye was a little unhappy with his behavior of making Su Niannian cry. Su Jianshan didn't even have anyone to ask questions, he walked back with his head hung.
When passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, Su Jianshan unexpectedly saw a familiar figure. He stopped, rubbed his eyes, and shouted excitedly: "Shan Yue——!"
Gao Shanyue, who was smoking in a dark alley, almost burned her hand. She hastily threw the cigarette butt under her feet and stomped it out, then asked with a straight face, "What's the matter?"
Facing Su Jianshan's approach, she instinctively became alert, she was completely traumatized. This man looked stupid, but actually he had the strength to carry her and throw her to the ground. She really couldn't underestimate him. He was a well-trained man with strong muscles all over his body.
Su Jianshan curled his lips and said aggrievedly, "I got beaten."
Gao Shanyue subconsciously looked at his face, a trace of fire flashing in her eyes: "Who did it?"
"Nian Nian."
"..."
Seeing Gao Shanyue didn't react, Su Jianshan became even more depressed: "Why did she beat me? Was it because I drank? Or was it because of Taozi? What's the matter? I just wanted to be responsible for her. She's just a girl, what can she do?!"
Gao Shanyue's blood ran colder and colder. She sneered, "Maybe... it's because you are hopelessly stupid!"
