Chapter 1477: Isn’t there any chance for you and that other person?
When Zhou Chenshu went out, the people under the tree had already left and the dug hole had been filled up.
There is actually a difference between the new soil and the old soil. It is very obvious. There is a very conspicuous line surrounding the old tree.
Zhou Chenshu took a look and went out.
Early that morning, he went to the bathroom and vaguely heard some noise, so Zhou Chenshu walked out.
Wow—
here we go again!
The soil that had been renovated yesterday was turned over again. The patrolling security guard was also looking inside with a flashlight, asking, "Girl, what are you digging?"
Liu Shuyi was very upset. She went back and thought about it for a whole day, but she still felt unwilling to give up. She had to find the thing, so she pulled Xiao Shiliu back again.
Zhou Chenshu felt curious and didn't sleep anymore. He pulled a chair and looked up at it. He really couldn't understand and was very curious about what made Liu Shuyi sit there so stubbornly, doing something almost stupid.
However, this was another day of failure. When the first rays of light in the morning fell on the yard, Liu Shuyi reluctantly pulled Xiao Shiliu away.
In the early morning light, Liu Shuyi looked dejected, her feet were covered in mud, and the light stretched her shadow very long.
Zhou Chenshu called Zhou Enyou and asked cryptically, "Sister, what has Liu Shuyi been busy with recently?"
Zhou Enyou was still sleeping at this hour, dazed, and the question hadn't crossed his mind. "I don't know what the hell he's doing. He went out all day, came back to play games all day, and then went out again to play all day. His clothes are so dirty that they're unbearable to look at."
Zhou Chenshu: "Do you know what you're going to do?"
Zhou Enyou: "I don't know."
Zhou Chenshu: "Do you know if there's anything she particularly wants recently?"
Zhou Enyou said, "Hmm?" "No, you're from the Scorpion. Just buy whatever you want. Think about it if you need anything."
Zhou Chenshu couldn't get anything out of Zhou Enyou.
When Liu Shuyi turned back, a car passed by her. After the car passed a distance from her, it slowly stopped.
Afterwards, she heard someone calling her, "Liu Shuyi."
Liu Shuyi turned around and saw Shengxia, who was wearing a snow-white dress and shining with soft light even in the sun.
"Are you free to chat?"
Compared to Shengxia who was dressed exquisitely, Liu Shuyi, who had just spent a night digging in the sewer, looked really embarrassed.
However, no one in the Scorpion is ever stage-frightened.
"Okay." Liu Shuyi's white shoes were stained with mud. One of his trouser legs was pulled up to his calf, with one side high and the other low. He put his hands in his pockets lazily, showing a unique style.
"Hello, my name is Shengxia." The two of them didn't walk far. There was a bench nearby, and Shengxia took the initiative to extend her hand to Liu Shuyi.
Liu Shuyi shook it, "Liu Shuyi."
"We've met before, brother...Oh, Zhou Chen said that you are his sister."
Liu Shuyi: 'Yeah.'
\"Did you... grow up together?"\" Shengxia has a baby face, and when she opened her eyes wide and asked questions seriously, she seemed a little obedient. Liu Shuyi didn't like chatting, but Zhou Chenshu had said that they were people who understood each other, and maybe this person would be Zhou Chenshu's lover in the future. Liu Shuyi would respect her for this reason.
Liu Shuyi: "I guess so. I'm better with his sister." Liu Shuyi is not stupid. On the contrary, she is very smart. When girls ask this kind of question, they never expect to get a positive answer. No one wants their future partner to have a childhood sweetheart.
If Zhou Chenshu wanted to leave, Liu Shuyi would not stop him. She would quietly withdraw from his world, and if necessary, she could silently see him off.
"His sister? Isn't that your sister too? I wanted to ask last time, if she's your sister, why are you named Liu and they're named Zhou? Are they relatives?"
Liu Shuyi: "You can understand it as, I am their family's servant, but the Zhou family is nice, so they let me stay. Because we are close in age, we have a better relationship. However, Zhou Chenshu is young after all, so I will spend more time with his sister. As a friend's younger brother, I will take care of him when he encounters problems. That's all."
When Shengxia heard this, her frown did not relax, but instead slowly wrinkled.
She was quiet for a moment, then asked, "So... don't you have any other relationship?"
"It's nothing," Liu Shuyi said calmly, "just ordinary friends."
Hearing this, Shengxia took out the two small boxes from her bag and placed them on the bench. "Have you been looking for this thing again these two days?"
It was clearly something he had been looking for for two days, but Liu Shuyi didn't dare to recognize it.
"That day, I came in for breakfast and saw you leaving. When you came out, I curiously went over to take a look and saw that the soil on the ground was different from other places. So I... picked up a tool nearby and dug it up, and that's when I saw it."
Having said that, Liu Shuyi had no choice but to admit it.
She has always been cautious in what she says and does in her life, but this matter was full of loopholes, and Liu Shuyi herself was absolutely upset.
"Actually, I wanted to give it to you yesterday, but I asked Chen Shu, and he said...it wasn't anything important, so I could keep it. But this morning, I saw you digging there again, so I thought I'd better tell you to save you the trouble."
Liu Shuyi looked up in surprise when she heard this. She looked at Shengxia and asked, "Zhou...he, does he know what I'm looking for?"
"It made quite a big noise, it's hard not to know," Sheng Xia smiled calmly. "I'm sorry, I've seen the things inside. The ring is engraved with the words Zhou and Liu, which I think are your names. I originally thought it was inappropriate for me to hold it, but Zhou Chen recounted... things in the past, so it's not appropriate to put it in your hands. After all, it's all in the past, and we should let it go. You're more concerned about it. If you keep this thing in your hands, I'm afraid you won't be able to let it go in the future."
Liu Shuyi's expression suddenly became gloomy. "Did he... say that?"
"Well," Shengxia said, "he also said... since you initially wanted to bury the thing, it means you also want to let it go. If that's the case, why bother looking for it again and causing more trouble? He treats you as family, and family members don't want to tear each other apart, and he doesn't want to feel awkward when seeing each other in the future. He's using this method to make you understand, so as not to hurt feelings."
"I stopped the car today for a selfish reason. I just wanted to tell you that I'm serious about Zhou Chenshu. He's... a very good person, very nice. He's generous, interesting, and humorous. He's not like those guys in the entertainment industry who get arrogant after a little fame. He's... very stable."
"I think he's interested in me, and I hope we can develop a good relationship. I'm planning to arrange for him to meet my family these days. Oh, you know what? My brother and Chen Shu are good friends. I call him brother, and it's not just to take advantage of his popularity. He knows my family inside and out, so I'm getting along with Zhou Chenshu with this in mind."
"I came here today to ask you, do you still have any thoughts about him...in that regard? If not, can I ask you to keep your distance from him? Girls are, after all, more petty. If you were just a simple sister, then I wouldn't mind. But since you two are in this relationship, I can't help but be suspicious. You understand, right?"
Shengxia's tone has always been steady and his logic is clear.
In fact, from a normal woman's perspective, there is nothing wrong with what she said.
To the point that Liu Shuyi was unable to refute it.
The brocade box I have been looking for for two days is now right here, yet it is so far away.
"Do you still want this thing?" Sheng Xia looked at the brocade box on the bench. "If you want it, I can give it to you privately. I won't tell Zhou Chenshu. I actually think... it's okay to leave it as a memory for you. We're all girls, I understand."
Liu Shuyi felt dazed and absurd for a moment.
Since when did she have to go through another woman to get something that originally belonged to her and Zhou Chenshu?
"No need. I understand what you said and what you meant." Liu Shuyi stood up, with mud still on her slender legs. "Here you go." Liu Shuyi lowered her head and glanced at one of the brocade boxes. "There's a glass ring in it. It's not worth much, but he got it from roping at the amusement park all day when he was a child." When they returned, it was already late and there were no cars. She carried the drowsy Zhou Chenshu on her back on the dark road. "He always said he wanted to give it to his future bride. You... keep it well."
After Liu Shuyi finished speaking, he walked away.
When we walked out of the shade, the scorching sun had already covered the earth, making people irritable and closer to despair than ever before.
Zhou Chenshu was about to go out, but was stopped by a phone call. When he came out, Liu Shuyi had already left, leaving Shengxia still sitting on the bench.
Zhou Chenshu asked immediately, "Did you just talk to Liu Shuyi?"
"Well," Shengxia's face changed from contemplation to reality in a second. She raised her head and smiled at Zhou Chenshu, "She gave me a gift."
Zhou Chenshu was confused, "Huh?"
Shengxia pointed to the brocade box on the bench and said, "She said she originally wanted to bury it, but then she felt it was a pity. After all, it was your most cherished wish when you were a child. So she dug it out after two days and gave it to me when she just saw me."
Zhou Chenshu was stunned for a moment.
He stared at the two brocade boxes for a while before walking over, taking them in his hands and opening them.
"It's beautiful, isn't it? She said this glass one is very precious to you and she hopes that we can be together, so she gave it to me. She said she hopes I can fulfill your childhood dream of getting a bride."
Zhou Chenshu looked at the two rings in his hand for a long time, and then laughed uncontrollably.
The two rings even had their surnames engraved on them!
She said she would give it to someone else, so she gave it to someone else!
Zhou Chenshu bent over at the end of his laughter, the veins on the back of his hand that was holding the ring box bulged, and finally he supported his knees with both hands and started coughing madly.
Shengxia was also startled and wanted to go over to help him up, but Zhou Chenshu raised his hand at this time.
He maintained this supporting posture for a long time, until something wet fell to the ground with a clatter. Zhou Chenshu suddenly stood up and strode straight home.
Shengxia stood under the tree, clutching her skirt with both hands, feeling incredibly guilty. But in the end, she only said softly, "I'm sorry, but you were the ones who chose not to be together in the beginning. I... just wanted to be with the person I love. I did nothing wrong."
Shengxia slowly loosened her hand that was beside her leg and walked into Zhou Chenshu's home.
"Chenshu..." Shengxia pushed the door open and saw Zhou Chenshu sitting on the floor playing games. She sat down next to him and said, "I'm not very good at talking, so I'll just stay with you. Sister Shuyi, I actually hope the best for you. Some people can't make it to the end, which means their fate only goes so far. You are so good, you will find your own fate."
After Shengxia finished speaking, she didn't say anything else. She picked up the game controller beside her and silently accompanied Zhou Chenshu to vent.
When Shengxia's brother Shengtang came, the two of them were sitting on the ground playing games.
Sheng Tang is a sister complex. As soon as he entered the room, he started yelling, "Oh my god, Zhou Chenshu, what's wrong with you? Letting my sister play games with you is fine, but give her a cushion. She's not in good health. If she catches a cold later, I'll come after you."
Sheng Tang finished speaking and brought a cushion over to Sheng Xia. Sheng Xia didn't have a cushion herself, so she tugged at Zhou Chenshu's clothes and asked him to get up. Her voice was soft and small, "The ground is cold, don't catch a cold. Your body is a gift from your parents, you shouldn't mess with it."
When it comes to his parents, Zhou Chenshu would mostly compromise, so this year's life on the crew was not completely in vain.
Sheng Tang sighed, handed Sheng Xia a cushion, and then sat aside to watch them play games.
It was said that they were playing games, but in fact, Shengxia was just cooperating with Zhou Chenshu unilaterally.
No matter what danger, Shengxia rushed forward first. When the storm came, Shengxia jumped in front of Zhou Chenshu to protect him. No matter what unknown mission, Shengxia was the first to rush forward. She died again and again, but Shengxia was determined to protect him.
In fact, the experience of protecting someone in the game can easily make people soft-hearted.
Sheng Tang looked at Zhou Chenshu's cold profile, curled his lips, and said nothing.
When Zhou Chenshu went upstairs to take a shower, Shengtang followed him. They had been in a relationship for more than ten years, so Shengtang didn't bother to talk about anything else.
"Hey, I know you have someone else in your heart, but isn't there no chance for you and that person anymore?"
"Look at our girl, she's so sincere."
The water in the bathroom was running.
Sheng Tang went in and closed the floodgates. "Honestly, my girl is very smart and beautiful. It's really not unfair for you to have her with you. Besides, you have someone in your heart. To be honest, if she wasn't so persistent, I wouldn't let her get close to you."
"Zhou Chenshu, you have been raised by your family since you were little, and my daughter has also been raised in their care. I don't brag, but you know my sister is really good, a top-notch talent, such a smart girl, with high IQ and EQ. No one who has been with her doesn't praise her. If you really get together with my sister, you will definitely continue to live a comfortable life in the future. She has a soft personality and a kind heart. You should consider it."
"Besides, the girl you liked before was so cold-natured. You had to keep her warm all day long. Aren't you tired? As a man, who doesn't want to be comfortable when they get home? Besides, let's say you're willing to take the initiative, but she doesn't want to. You say you're forcing yourself, but forcing others, is that appropriate?"
It can be said that childhood friends are the people who understand you best, and they are good at stabbing you in the heart.
Zhou Chenshu was almost out of breath after hearing what he said.
Sheng Tang was also frightened by him, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
A petite voice came running from the door, holding a glass of lemon honey water to Zhou Chenshu's lips, still in that soft and gentle voice, "Drink some water, brother, stop talking, what are you doing? He can do whatever he wants, why are you so angry at him?"
Sheng Tang was speechless. "Who am I doing this for? Your family is urging you to find something every day. I'm just worried about you. Besides, I think the ring has been returned. Why are you still insisting on it?"
"Brother!" Sheng Xia frowned, pushed the man out, then turned back and half-knelt in front of Zhou Chenshu. Her fair face and eyes looked at Zhou Chenshu earnestly, and her voice was gentle and bewitching. "It's okay, my brother is just talking nonsense. Let's not force it. When it's over, we can talk about other things. Ah, there's no rush. Don't be angry."
A slender hand patted Zhou Chenshu's back. There were still water droplets on Zhou Chenshu's face. Through the water droplets, he looked quietly at Shengxia in front of him and blinked his eyes for some unknown reason.
