Chapter 120: The Heartless Educated Youth in the Period Literature (25)
Forget it, since we’ve already stopped, we might as well go over and take a look.
He was about to leave Jiangcheng. Although he had said that day that they would be strangers in the future, since they had met here, it was fate, and he would just treat it as his last farewell.
Shao Jinglin explained himself in his heart.
Su Yu was almost annoyed to death by this brat: "Stop crying, go home and ask your dad to buy it for you. I don't have any money with me, and it's useless even if you faint here crying today."
The little nephew rolled over, hugged Su Yu's legs, and cried, "Wow, I don't care, I want to eat candied haws, buy them for me, I want to eat them--"
His mouth was wide open, but nothing happened.
Su Yu was unmoved and curled her lips. The little brat thought she couldn't see that he was pretending to cry. These were just leftovers from her playtime when she was a child.
"I said I won't buy it, so I won't buy it. You might as well go back and beg your grandmother instead of begging me here."
The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time, and the people around them were happy to watch the fun.
The people who bought the candied haws were not surprised at all. They just stood there and watched the fun, wondering who would be able to defeat whom between the mother and son in the end.
"Boss, give me two strings of candied haws." A deep voice sounded, calling back the candied haws vendor's attention.
It also attracted Su Yu's attention.
When she saw the man, she was slightly stunned. She slowly stood up and put away the irritable expression on her face. Slightly embarrassedly, she picked up her little nephew who was holding her legs and making a fuss and stood him up.
He gave the money in one hand and took the two strings of candied haws in the other.
Under Su Yu's puzzled gaze, he handed over two strings of candied haws.
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the child who was trembling with tears.
"It's better to keep the children under control."
The man was tall and had a cold expression. His dark eyes swept over, and the little nephew was so scared that he stopped crying immediately and hid behind Su Yu in fear.
The well-behaved and timid look was in stark contrast to the throwing a tantrum just now.
Children are disobedient most likely because they are spoiled.
Shao Jinglin's cold face is particularly useful in educating children.
Su Yu took the candied haws in a daze, even more confused.
She pursed her lips and asked anxiously, "What are you doing..."
"Nothing, just passing by."
Shao Jinglin didn't understand what he was doing. He had clearly promised that he would not be soft-hearted again. But when he saw her crying because of the child in the car, he still couldn't help but ask the driver to stop the car.
Su Yu was stunned for a long time, then slowly said "oh".
I didn't ask him why he came over without being tactful. We had clearly said that day that we would just pretend we had never known each other.
The two people who were once so close to each other now looked at each other in silence.
Su Yu really couldn't guess what Shao Jinglin was thinking.
Seven years have passed. The brother Jinglin, who used to have his thoughts written all over his face and was naive and gullible, has transformed into Mr. Shao, who never shows his emotions.
No one could tell from his face what he didn't want others to know.
Just as no one knew, he suddenly had an urge to take Su Yu back to the capital.
Shao Jinglin pulled down his long eyelashes, hiding the inexplicable emotions in his eyes and suppressing that absurd thought.
"I'm going back to the capital."
Su Yu raised her eyes: "So fast?"
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but there was a hint of excitement in the woman’s words.
"I mean... goodbye, and thank you for pleading for me yesterday. I don't have to resign." Su Yu tried her best not to sound too expectant.
Su Yu said sincerely: "Although you said you wouldn't help me yesterday, you still helped me in the end. You are a good person. I was wrong in the past. Thank you, and I'm sorry."
Shao Jinglin didn't say anything, nor did he accept her thanks or her apology.
Su Yu was disappointed for a moment, then she cheered up and smiled, "Then I went home and thought about it, and I felt that you were right. I shouldn't bother you anymore. From now on, we should just pretend that we have never met. It will be better for both of us."
Shao Jinglin's tense expression suddenly turned a little ugly.
He said this himself, and he felt very happy and relieved when he said it.
But when I saw her again today, I felt so uncomfortable.
Shao Jinglin gritted his teeth, feeling that Su Yu had cast a spell on him, causing him to be obsessed with her for so many years. He finally made up his mind to forget her, but found it so difficult.
Even if they just saw her figure on the road, she would ask the driver to stop the car as if she had lost her mind, and come over to help her coax (scare) the child.
Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of the child hiding behind Su Yu.
He lowered his eyes and looked over. Perhaps he realized that they knew each other. The child was not as scared as before. There was still dust on his body, but his big eyes were blinking at him.
Looks very much like Su Yu.
When they met for the first time, the little girl was hiding among a group of educated youth. She saw him at a glance, blinked her big eyes as if they could speak, and gave him a sweet smile.
Unfortunately, things are unpredictable. When we met again, she was already someone else's wife and had a child.
Thinking of this, Shao Jinglin suddenly felt that the child was not so pleasing to the eye.
Although his eyes are big, their shape is not good, not as round as Su Yu's almond eyes. His mouth is a little big, not as small as Su Yu's red lips. His eyebrows are too thick, and his nose is not delicate enough. His father's genes must be very bad.
Shao Jinglin suddenly asked: "Can I have a few words with him alone?"
"Ah?" Su Yu was slow to react after a while and realized that he was talking about his nephew, "and him?"
Shao Jinglin nodded but did not explain.
Su Yu hesitated for two seconds and nodded: "Okay, okay."
The little nephew looked terrified. He was pushed in front of the big devil by his dear second aunt. He turned his head with tears in his eyes: "I don't want to talk to him..."
Su Yu raised a fake smile and said, "Be good and listen to me. I'll give you some candied haws later."
After saying this, he left without mercy, completely ignoring his nephew's tearful pleas.
The little nephew wanted to cry but didn't dare to. Tears were stuck in his eyes. He looked at Shao Jinglin fearfully, just like a replica of Su Yu.
Shao Jinglin's expression subconsciously softened a little.
The next moment, he remembered that this child was born to Su Yu and someone else, and his face turned cold again.
The little nephew was so scared that he trembled.
"Don't be afraid." Shao Jinglin squatted down with a cold face, and for Su Yu's sake, his voice softened a little, "I'll ask you a few questions, you answer them obediently, and then I'll let you go, do you hear me?"
The little nephew nodded repeatedly with tears in his eyes.
"Let me ask you, is your father good to you...your mother?" Shao Jinglin said the word "mother" with great difficulty.
To this day, Shao Jinglin still finds it hard to accept the fact that Su Yu is married and has a child.
The nephew shook his head honestly.
Shao Jinglin's eyes suddenly darkened, and the air around him became several degrees colder.
The little nephew trembled violently and was extremely scared, holding back his tears.
"What's wrong?"
The nephew's voice was trembling as he recalled what his parents had said when they quarreled: "He doesn't make money, he loves to drink, and when he's drunk he gets mad, and he gambles away all the money my mom earns. He doesn't listen to my mom when she tries to persuade him, and he even beats my mom..."
When the nephew said the last sentence, he was frightened into silence by the man's changed expression in front of him.
Shao Jinglin's pupils shrank suddenly, his face became gloomy and terrifying as if he wanted to eat someone, and he even wanted to kill that man.
How dare he?!
