"You're not young anymore, do you still want to be an old maid?"
Su Zhuo asked her seriously.
Chen Yunuo held his breath and kept looking at him.
He now looks like a good brother who cares about his younger sister.
Did he forget that his last name was Su?
"You are the eldest son my parents left behind in the Su family, right?"
Her parents have praised her for her cleverness since she was a child, so it's not impossible.
Su Zhuo narrowed his eyes when he heard this, crossed his arms over his chest and moved closer to her, looking into her eyes.
The two of them were so close that Chen Yunuo had to breathe cautiously. However, before the ambiguous atmosphere could entangle him, he suddenly smiled and left, saying, "You might be the princess of the Su family who was left behind. How about we switch?"
Chen Yunuo's teeth hurt even more. She lowered her head, walked to the sofa and sat down. She looked up and saw that he was still there. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Please don't open the door by yourself and come to my house in the future."
"What's the reason?"
"You know your sister is not young anymore. If she brings a man back home, it will be hard to explain."
"What's so difficult to explain? The Su family and the Chen family have been friends for decades."
Su Zhuo said.
"Yes, the Su and Chen families have been friends for many years, but they are not one family after all. If the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, it will always cause people to talk about it."
Chen Yunuo said to him indifferently.
Su Zhuo nodded quickly after hearing this: "Okay, next time I come, I will knock on the door. If you don't open it, I won't come in."
“…”
Chen Yunuo didn't expect him to be so easy to talk to, and looked up at him.
"I need to use the restroom."
Seeing that she was satisfied, Su Zhuo walked away.
Chen Yunuo turned around and looked in the direction he was going and couldn't help frowning.
What's wrong with him?
Is he not allowed to use the bathroom at his girlfriend's house?
She couldn't help but walk forward and knocked on the door gently.
He was washing his hands and suddenly looked at her with sharp eyes.
Chen Yunuo's heart trembled inexplicably, but he didn't forget to ask him: "Isn't your girlfriend's toilet allowed to be used by you?"
"It's strange, I used her, but she wouldn't let me use the restroom. It's really hard to keep a woman and a villain."
Su Zhuo said.
Chen Yunuo felt sad, but he took a breath and said indifferently, "I don't want to lend you my toilet anymore."
"Just think of it as being for your brother's happiness. You also want me to get married soon, so you don't have to explain yourself, right?"
"What am I not able to explain?"
Chen Yunuo was puzzled.
"You forgot what you just said so quickly? Silly girl."
“…”
He washed his hands and left, only looking back at the door, "Nono, I will naturally help you when I am happy."
“…”
The side of her face that was hurting from the toothache started to swell up in the second half of the night.
Well, all the painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs are useless.
Her pillow was damp.
It was almost two o'clock when she got up, sat on the bed and sighed.
The mist in her eyes was burning as she thought about what he had said to her...
How did she end up like this?
After she came back, she really thought for a while that they would be together, but several attempts were fruitless.
He took her to meet old friends, both men and women, in pairs.
It was he who gave her the illusion that they would be together, but what about now?
Her breath was trembling and her heart was trembling.
She didn't understand why he kept getting closer to her if he didn't love her.
He touched her hair, he mingled his breath with hers, he left her companions behind and sent her home after she had a drink...
As a grown man, doesn't he understand how ambiguous this is?
But everything was solved when he treated her as his own sister.
Oh.
The next morning, Chen Yunuo went downstairs to buy breakfast and met Su Zhuo in the elevator.
Su Zhuo seemed surprised as well, "Why are you up so early? That doesn't seem like Miss Chen's style."
Chen Yunuo looked at him straight, and seeing that he was no longer wearing the suit he wore last night, he lowered his eyes and said softly, "I'm hungry."
"So you went out to look for food. Are you feeling unwell?"
Su Zhuo saw that she didn't seem to sleep well, and the dark circles under her eyes were clearly visible.
Chen Yunuo didn't want to hear that he cared about her.
Even though to him these words might just mean something like, hello.
"Why aren't you talking?"
"toothache."
She managed to utter two words.
These two words were her savior.
It is indeed possible to avoid talking too much when you have a toothache.
After hearing this, Su Zhuo immediately pinched her chin and made her raise her head.
He tucked the hair that covered her face behind her ears, then frowned at the swollen half of her face: "I told you to pull it out a long time ago, but you didn't listen. Now it's back again."
Yes, he even knew how many bad teeth she had.
Chen Yunuo's tears suddenly flowed out and continued to flow out.
Even she herself realized it later.
When I found myself crying, tears were already streaming down my face.
"I'll go with you to buy some porridge so you can drink it on the way to the hospital."
As he spoke, he had already grabbed her wrist and led her out as the elevator opened.
But just as he took her out, he ran into Zong Heng coming in from the unit door.
"you……"
Zong Heng looked at them in confusion, then looked at Su Zhuo holding Chen Yunuo's hand.
"You've come just in time. Nuonuo has a toothache. Take her to the hospital to have it pulled out. Oh, and buy her some porridge on the way."
Su Zhuo quickly let go of Chen Yunuo's hand and made arrangements very calmly.
"I just happened to bring some porridge, Nuonuo."
Zong Heng called her as well.
Chen Yunuo watched Su Zhuo let go of his hand, and felt the warmth in his hand quickly dissipated by the winter temperature.
