Chapter 105: Leave Him Alone
At work that day, my colleagues were discussing where to go for the department trip at the end of the month.
Hatsushimo was slightly surprised, "Is there a public holiday at the end of the month?"
"Didn't the HR department tell you when they hired you? Our company has a fine tradition of having a public travel opportunity every year. The company is too big, so each department organizes it on its own."
He Huan thought happily, "Let's go to the beach! It's not too hot recently and there aren't many tourists. Let's go camping by the sea and take nice photos in bikinis!"
The male colleague also thought it was feasible, "I want to learn surfing and try deep-sea diving. There are many water sports at the seaside. Let's try them all."
Everyone discussed it one by one and reached a consensus.
At noon, Chu Shuang went downstairs to get takeout. When she passed the front desk, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the purple mark on Zhou Wen Shuang's neck. She couldn't help but frown when she saw it.
When she came back with the things, she grabbed a handful of cherries and placed them in front of Zhou Wenshuang.
Chu Shuang held the box and said, "I bought a lot. You can try it too."
The woman raised her eyes and looked at her tenderly, "Thank you."
We were all nodding acquaintances. Chushuang went upstairs after distributing the cherries. I felt I couldn't bear to look at her a little longer.
When I returned to the office to distribute cherries to my colleagues, Sister Xu and He Huan happened to be talking about Zhou Wenshuang. They obviously also saw the marks on her body.
"Alas, I heard from the sisters on the sixth floor that Xiao Shuang was bullied by her husband's family because she was not pregnant. She can still live like this. She is really naive."
He Huan frowned, "But if we beat her like this now, will she be fine after we have a child? People with violent tendencies can't just stop. It's OK for her to get away from it now that she's single, but if we have a child, she'll be at the mercy of others."
"Why don't her friends and family persuade her? After all this, do you still expect the man to change for the better? I don't understand why they don't know how to resist when they are clearly not doing well."
Hatsushimo listened at the side and slowly moved his lips, "Many things are not that simple. There are too many complications. It's not that easy to end them just because you want to."
After all, only the person involved understands the bitterness and pain, and only oneself can help oneself. No matter how much advice others give, it is not as good as one's own enlightenment.
Sun Mengzhu came out of the office to make tea in the tea room. Chu Shuang looked at her back, thinking about something.
After get off work, Hatsushimo went to the underground parking lot to ride her electric donkey back to her apartment. As she left the parking lot, an Audi drove out from behind her.
Odie slowed down as he passed by her. Chu Shuang glanced to the side and met Sun Mengzhu's gaze.
Sun Mengzhu saw her looking at him and slightly retracted her gaze. "Do you need me to give you a ride?"
The tone was quite calm, but a person's micro-expressions are difficult to conceal.
Clearly with some arrogance and...sympathy?
"Thank you, but my house is quite close and I can get there quickly by bike."
Sun Mengzhu nodded, stepped on the accelerator and quickly disappeared around the corner.
Chu Shuang went straight to the entrance of the Grand Theater to pick up Sheng Yao, and the two agreed to go to the night market to eat barbecue.
After the barbecue, Sheng Yao and Chu Shuang returned to the small apartment. They hadn't spent the night together for a long time. Sheng Yao was in a very good mood. He clung to Chu Shuang and curled up on the sofa, eating popcorn and watching TV series.
When I was halfway through reading, Sheng Ting sent me a message.
【Aren’t you coming back yet? 】
Sheng Yao looked at the message prompt on the top of the screen and slowly raised his eyebrows, "Uncle, don't you know you're going to live here?"
Hatsushimo took the phone and said, "I told him yesterday what's wrong with this guy."
Hatsushimo: [I've returned to the apartment. I'm staying here today.]
When Sheng Ting saw the message, he frowned slightly and called directly.
"Have you eaten yet?"
Chu Shuang ignored Sheng Yao's gossiping gaze and said calmly, "I ate it."
She didn't take the initiative to talk, and after a few seconds Sheng Ting spoke, "It's not late yet, why did you go there?"
"My car is broken and still being repaired. It's cold, so I have no choice but to ride my electric donkey back here."
"Why didn't you tell me your car broke down? I would have picked you up on my way home from get off work."
Hatsushimo: "Are you home?"
"arrive."
"You came home pretty early today."
The courtyard was quiet for a moment.
Just as I was about to get the car keys, the other end suddenly said, "Nothing else, I'm hanging up. I still want to watch TV with Yaoyao."
The man paused, "Is Sheng Yao with you?"
"Well, we'll sleep together tonight."
Sheng Ting stopped walking and paused for a while before speaking: "Close the doors and windows when you go to bed at night."
“Yes.”
After hanging up the phone, he slowly put down the phone and looked at the little golden retriever who was sitting on the ground and looking at him expectantly.
Obviously, the little golden retriever's expectations were dashed.
If Sheng Ting still can't figure out her attitude, then he has lived all these years in vain.
The little girl still holds a grudge.
Pinching the bridge of his nose slightly, he reflected on what had happened during this period of time.
To be honest, she did a good job during this period. She was gentle and considerate. Knowing that he was busy, she waited for him quietly at home without making any noise or fuss. She was very sensible.
No matter how busy he is during the day, he should spend more time with her when he gets home at night, even if it's just taking a walk with her.
Nothing.
Girls are very delicate and thoughtful. Even if she doesn't say it on the surface, you never know how she's feeling in her heart.
The more I thought about Sheng Ting, the more irritated I felt. I hadn't seen her for two days and I really wanted to rush over and talk everything out with her.
Sheng Yao is like a light bulb that always appears at inappropriate times.
…
At this moment, someone next to Chushuang sneezed.
Sheng Yao rubbed his nose and asked in surprise: "Are you in a cold war with your uncle?"
"Cold War?"
Hatsushimo thought about it carefully and said, "It shouldn't be considered as such. We are just separated for two days temporarily."
Let him know what it feels like to be left out.
I told Sheng Yao about some recent events. After listening to me, she patted the pillow and became a little excited.
"Yes! Just leave him alone, don't get used to his poker face! You've ignored your beloved wife for a whole week, and you're still in a good temper. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to stay for three days."
"Really? You're just too nice to your uncle. Men are always fearless. Leave him alone for a few days and let him have a taste of what it's like."
"He's already in his early thirties, and he finally got married, but he doesn't know how to cherish her. He keeps doing things, and he doesn't even know when his wife will run away."
Chu Shuang looked at her, who was even more excited than herself, and was a little stunned. "Actually, it's not as exaggerated as you say..."
"It's not easy for him either. I'm just angry at him for not taking other people's words to heart and not knowing how to take care of his body."
"Oh," Sheng Yao was so upset that they couldn't make it. He crossed his arms and said seriously, "Let's be tougher and stop being so considerate. Let him know that you have a temper too. If you keep being so easy on him, he won't try to comfort you next time he encounters something like this."
"He came to see you these two days, you can't be coaxed all at once, girls, it's harmless to be a little arrogant occasionally. Do you understand, little aunt?"
Chu Shuang's eyes were firm: "Yes."
Sheng Yao sighed, "This family will break up without me."
"Let's continue watching the show."
