After hearing what Chang Yue said, I didn't know what to say for a moment... My heart felt like a mess, and I could only eat the noodles in the bowl silently... But I felt that the noodles had no taste at all.
Chang Yue looked at me like this, frowned slightly, and said with a bit of dissatisfaction in her tone: "Are you angry? Humph, then just be angry slowly." As she said that, she put down her chopsticks and pretended to get up and leave.
"I'm not angry... It's your freedom, how dare I get angry? If you want to go, go... I respect your decision." I sighed helplessly and said softly, but my heart was getting more and more upset... I was already upset because of what happened between Lin Mengxi and me...
Chang Yue finished the last bite of noodles, stood up, frowned at me, and said, "You don't even know how to say nice things now, do you? You weren't like this before, but now you don't even want to coax me. It seems that I'm not that important to you anymore."
"No, of course I want you to go back with me, but I won't force you to make a decision." I rubbed my temples. The mess of emotions now made me really not in the mood to say sweet words... I just wanted to calm down first... and sort out this mess.
After hearing what I said, Chang Yue didn't say anything else. He turned around, walked to the closet and started changing clothes.
Seeing this, I quickly finished my noodles, then collected the bowl and took it to the kitchen.
When I walked out, I saw Zhu Wei and Xu Qian sitting there, talking and laughing while eating. They seemed to be enjoying the meal. I didn't see Yang Xue. She must have finished eating and left.
I greeted them both and said with a smile, "Miss Xu, Granny Zhu... Long time no see, I missed you so much."
Xu Qian was holding her chopsticks. When she heard what I said, she looked up and said with a smile, "Handsome Lin, that's great. Next time, why don't you teach Zhu Wei how to cook too? He's been watching us every day, but he hasn't learned anything. He just knows how to eat. Humph."
Zhu Wei glared at me. But after hearing what Xu Qian said, he quickly smiled and said, "I'll hire a nanny for you in the future. It's okay... You don't have to learn. If I had that time, I might as well spend more time with you. Learning to cook is so tiring, and there's no need for us to do it ourselves, right?"
When Xu Qian heard this, she patted Zhu Wei and frowned, saying, "Didn't you say you didn't rely on your family? Doesn't hiring a nanny cost money?"
"Who said I have to rely on my family? Can't I earn money by myself? I will definitely not be worse than Zhu Changhong in the future! It will be easy to hire a nanny by then. Don't worry about it. Just wait to enjoy your retirement." Zhu Wei said confidently, but his words sounded a bit unreliable... making people want to laugh.
I sat down across from them, pulled a cigarette from my pocket, handed it to Zhu Wei, and said with a playful tone, "How many years will it take... Twenty years? Thirty years? And what can you do without your family? Do you have any ideas in your mind? You can't just talk about it."
Zhu Wei took the cigarette, put it in his mouth... He scratched his head with an embarrassed smile and said, "I don't know... I don't have any idea. Anyway, I still have two years of bragging rights in school, so I'll just muddle through for now. It's okay, take it slow. There will always be a way out. I believe I can make something of myself in the future, haha."
Just then... I heard the sound of the door opening, and Xu Qian and I subconsciously turned our heads to look... and then tacitly looked at Zhu Wei with contempt... When I turned around, my face changed, and I hurriedly followed Chang Yue out of the room with a grin, ready to send her to work.
We walked towards the car. Not long after we got there, we saw Yang Xue standing next to it. She was wearing a long coat and tight jeans. The coat was simple yet stylish, and the jeans perfectly showed off her long, straight legs. Her figure was truly amazing.
Chang Yue looked at Yang Xue and said, "Would you really like to consider following me?"
Yang Xue listened, shook her head, and said with a smile, "I'll be going back home soon... I don't want to bother you any more. It seems that I won't be able to go back to work for much longer this year, and my health hasn't recovered very well yet. I'd better go back and recuperate. If I come here again next year, I'll come to see you again." Then she pointed at me and said, "Lend me his things later and take me to the station."
Chang Yue looked at Yang Xue helplessly, thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Okay then."
I looked at Yang Xue and said in surprise, "Why is it so sudden?"
Yang Xue responded: "It wasn't a sudden decision. I had already been thinking about it when I was in the hospital. Then I thought about it carefully these past few days and felt that it would be better to go back."
I knew she had already made up her mind, so no amount of persuasion would work. So I just let it go. I nodded and said, "I'll come back later and take you to the station."
Yang Xue nodded..
…
Chang Yue and I got in the car and drove towards where she worked.
On the way, Chang Yue turned around and looked at me with a smile on her face. She jokingly said, "Yang Xue is pretty good. Why didn't you win her over back then? She looks good, has a nice personality, and a great figure. So you never had any interest in her? Or is it because of that incident with her that you're feeling reluctant?"
When I heard that, I immediately looked helpless and said, "What's wrong with you today? You're being so strange and asking all these weird questions. Are you hiding something from me?"
"It's okay, I'm just asking. I'm just curious." Chang Yue smiled and continued, "Why don't you take Yang Xue home later? Send her directly home. That way I'll feel more at ease. She's a girl, and it's not easy for her."
