Chapter 442 A Small Imbalance
Su Jiuyao suddenly felt very emotional. Seeing that the man who was once so weak and pitiful was now so healthy and even a young master of a big family, living a prosperous and happy life, she was happy for him.
"You were really too much just now. You clearly recognized me, but you refused to acknowledge me."
He laughed and said, "I wanted to go a little further and scare you, but I was afraid you would slap me in public, and that wouldn't be fun anymore."
Su Jiuyao smiled and said, "How did you become Mr. Zhong's son?"
Zhong Rufei couldn't help but stroke his forehead and smiled helplessly, "I am my father's son. It's just that my friends envied me and imprisoned me for three years, torturing me in every way. Later, they threw me into the ravine to feed the wolves. I didn't expect to meet you. At that time, I really thought I had met a fairy."
Su Jiuyao still felt shocked when she thought about the injuries she had treated for him.
Then she thought about how much effort it took to bring him back home that day, and how many times she rested before finally reaching home. She smiled and said, "I wish I were a fairy. I could ride on the clouds and mist to bring you back to the temple. I was really exhausted trying to bring you back that time."
Zhong Rufei looked at her with a smile: "You were too thin back then, but you're not fat now."
As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea for Su Jiuyao and handed it to her. The tea was the jasmine tea that Jiuyao liked.
"Xiaojiu, how are you doing now?" He paused and asked, "Is Gu Hanye treating you well?"
Su Jiuyao took a sip from the teacup and nodded: "He treats me very well."
Zhong Rufei smiled and took a sip of tea. After a moment, he seemed to be talking to himself and said, "If I had known earlier, I would have come to you sooner."
"Hmm?" Su Jiuyao raised her head and found that Zhong Rufei was looking at her silently, his eyes were deep and intense.
After the two looked at each other for two seconds, Zhong Rufei looked away and said, "I want to thank you very much for saving my life."
Su Jiuyao smiled with relief and said, "If it weren't for the young master, my half-baked medical skills would not have been enough. If you want to thank someone, you should thank him as well."
"I have been in contact with him. My father also invited the young master to come today."
Su Jiuyao was surprised. She didn't expect the young master to be there. She hadn't met him just now and didn't know if he had seen her...
"Why, you don't know?"
She smiled bleakly and said, "Young Master doesn't usually contact me."
But it seems that the young master and Zhong Rufei have been in contact. At least Zhong Rufei knows the young master's name, otherwise why would Mr. Zhong invite the young master to come?
When I think about it this way, I feel a little unbalanced.
She felt that the young master treated her as an outsider, but she trusted Zhong Rufei very much.
"Do you and the young master keep in touch often?" Su Jiuyao asked.
"We haven't been in touch very often. We only got in touch this year. He came to my father to ask for a small favor, a business matter. My father knew that he had helped me in the past, so he generously agreed and invited him to the banquet."
Zhong Rufei took a sip of tea. Chu Lingfeng didn't let him reveal anything about him, not even his name. Although Zhong Rufei didn't know what Chu Lingfeng's intention was, he didn't want to say anything more and spread rumors between Jiuyao and Chu Lingfeng.
So he changed the subject slightly.
"I thought you and him were always close, so I was quite surprised when I heard that you married Gu Hanye. I thought you would be with the young master..."
Su Jiuyao waved her hands quickly: "No, the young master and I...it's impossible."
She had had fantasies about the young master before, but she didn't dare to have any extravagant hopes.
Now, there was no possibility for them to be together. After all, she was already married to Gu Hanye. She had originally thought of getting a quick divorce and then going to find the Young Master, but things were beyond her control, and she was becoming less and less willing to leave. Now, when she thought of the Young Master, she even felt a bit of a retreat.
"After all, I'm married." Su Jiuyao added.
"I thought you and Gu Hanye were in a family marriage and there wouldn't be any feelings between you. It seems like you have a pretty good relationship?"
After saying this, he deliberately paid attention to Su Jiuyao's expression.
