Chapter 41: The Ex-Girlfriend Who Hates the Poor and Loves the Rich (10)
The system hesitated and said: [Host, isn't this too much of a blow to the heroine's confidence? What if she doesn't dare to dress up in the future? Wouldn't it mean that there will be no chance for her to be with the hero? ]
Although love cannot be judged solely on appearance, it is also impossible to ignore appearance at all.
Su Yu didn't care: [Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't they say that the heroine's highlight will be in the later stages? It's still a long way to go before graduation. What's the point of thinking about these things now? ]
[Furthermore, for problems like low self-esteem and timidity, it is useless for others to consider her feelings. She can only figure it out by herself and become strong inside so that she will not be affected by what others say.]
The system seemed to understand: [That makes sense. The host knows a lot. ]
Su Yu smiled and said, "So you should study hard and don't ask me any questions."
The system's virtual eyes sparkled: [Then host, lend me some points and help me upgrade the data core. You promised me in the last world.]
【……】
Su Yu immediately changed her words: [I think being a little fool is pretty good, it's fun, and I'm fine as long as I can do the mission.]
The system choked: [……]
Time flies and it is Friday.
Tomorrow is the day I have an appointment with Li Heng. I don’t know who the two elders he is referring to are.
However, Su Yu had some vague guesses in her mind.
It seems like I have to say goodbye to the male protagonist soon.
Until then, we have to hold steady.
There are only two classes on Friday morning, and coincidentally, Qi Huaizhi has the same class.
"We've been together for so long, but I still don't know what your home looks like. I'm a little curious."
Su Yu leaned on Qi Huaizhi's shoulder, opened her mouth and ate the potato chips he fed her, and at the same time pinched a chocolate bar to feed him, the bracelet on her wrist jingling.
Qi Huaizhi took a closer look and said, "The bracelet is very nice."
Su Yu smiled and raised her wrist to shake it: "It looks good, right? Someone gave it to me."
Qi Huaizhi didn't think much about it, thinking it was a gift from his roommate or other classmate.
"You haven't answered my previous question yet. Don't you want to take me to your house?"
Su Yu hugged his arm, shook it unhappily, and snorted like a child.
Qi Huaizhi is a local. In order to take care of his grandfather, he did not choose the Capital University with a higher score, but entered S University as the top scorer.
Of course, the gap between the two is not that big.
Qi Huaizhi chuckled: "How could that be?"
"It's just that my house is a little shabby, and I'm afraid you'll dislike it."
Family background is indeed Qi Huaizhi's weakness.
Which good girl would be willing to be with someone like him who has no parental support? Although he doesn't need it, he can still make a name for himself.
Su Yu didn't care, her eyebrows curved: "It doesn't matter, I don't even have a home."
Qi Huaizhi paused.
Her tone was relaxed and natural, and she said such words casually, as if she was already used to it.
For a moment, Qi Huaizhi's heart seemed to be gripped by a pair of invisible hands, and he could hardly breathe.
Looking at Su Yu's indifferent expression, his Adam's apple moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he was hesitant. In the end, he pulled her into his arms and said only three words.
"You have me."
His voice was steady and firm.
As long as you are willing to wait and don't complain, I will try my best to give you a good life and a home.
Qi Huaizhi promised in his heart.
The reason why I didn't say it out loud was that I didn't want to burden her, and I didn't want to tie her future up with an empty promise when she had nothing.
…
Qi Huaizhi's home is in an old residential building.
There is no elevator, and the voice-controlled lights in the dim stairwell flicker. There is some sticky liquid on the ground, which emits a faint musty smell.
Su Yu held her breath and walked closely beside Qi Huaizhi.
His eyes flickered over the dirty graffiti scrawled on the wall, disdain and disgust flashing in his eyes.
Is this where Qi Huaizhi lives?
I was wondering how shabby it would be, but I didn't expect it to be like this. The environment in the welfare home is better than here.
Su Yu suddenly felt a little regretful.
If she didn't want to maintain her image, she would have wanted to shake off Qi Huaizhi's hand and leave right now.
Her voice trembled: "Huaizhi, do you really live here?"
Qi Huaizhi glanced sideways: "Well, what's wrong?"
Su Yu's eyes flickered: "Nothing? I'm just curious, is there no one cleaning here?"
Qi Huaizhi explained: "No one is in charge here, and the residents usually clean up by themselves."
The result is obvious, no one wants to suffer losses.
The lights went out again. Su Yu frowned and walked upstairs, suppressing her discomfort.
"Haven't you arrived yet?"
“Soon.”
When they arrived, Qi Huaizhi took out the key to open the door. Su Yu was behind him, covering her nose slightly, looking around with disgust.
There is no peculiar smell on this floor and the ground is very clean.
Su Yu pretended to be disgusted for a while, but when Qi Huaizhi turned around, she put down her hand, adjusted her expression, and smiled slightly.
"Come in."
Qi Huaizhi didn't notice anything unusual.
The house is small but very tidy, and you can tell that the owner of the house takes great care to clean it.
There were washed fruits on the table, very fresh.
But I heard the door open and there was no movement, and it seemed that there was no one else. Who put the fruit on the table?
"You live alone in your house?"
"No, I live with my grandfather."
Qi Huaizhi knew what was going on after a quick thought. He looked helpless yet sad.
"Grandpa should be out for a walk. Please sit down first. I'll get you a glass of water."
Qi Huaizhi knew that his grandfather was afraid of disturbing them, so he deliberately avoided them and went out.
Su Yu nodded obediently: "Yes."
While Qi Huaizhi was pouring water, she glanced around the house. It was indeed very clean, there was not much dust in the corners, and things were neatly arranged.
Suddenly she caught sight of the medicine box on the cabinet and her eyes stopped.
There are a lot of medicine boxes accumulated, all of them empty. The old man seems reluctant to throw them away, so they are piled there, waiting to be sold as scrap.
"Huaizhi, there are a lot of medicine boxes there. Are they your grandfather's?" Su Yu asked tentatively.
Qi Huaizhi followed her gaze and nodded.
"Um."
Qi Huaizhi placed the tea in front of Su Yu, nodded and said, "Grandpa has a bad heart. He had an operation half a year ago and has to take medicine since then."
He spent a lot of effort to save money for the surgery.
Su Yu frowned slightly.
Even if Qi Huaizhi is indeed very outstanding, such family conditions and a sick old man are enough to discourage most people.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Su Yu's thoughts were interrupted. She looked towards the door, surprised.
Qi Huaizhi's grandfather is back?
Don’t old people ever bring their keys when they go out?
"I'll go open the door." Qi Huaizhi stood up and walked over.
With a creaking sound, Qi Huai was startled to see who was outside the door, then frowned slightly: "Luoluo?"
"Huaizhi, my mother stewed pork ribs today and cooked a lot of dishes. She asked me to come over and ask you and grandpa to eat together. Is grandpa home? I haven't talked to him for a long time."
As he spoke, Bai Luo leaned inside and looked familiarly.
Qi Huaizhi had no time to stop her, and she and Su Yu looked at each other.
Bai Luo was stunned.
The next second, her face turned grim, and she subconsciously asked, "Why are you here?"
Su Yu found it funny. She slowly stood up and walked behind Qi Huaizhi, gently curling her lips and speaking in a gentle voice.
"What do you mean by that? Can't I be here? This is Huaizhi's home. He doesn't need your consent to bring me back, right?"
Hearing this, Qi Huaizhi, who had not thought much about it, also felt uncomfortable.
Bai Luo's body froze, he looked up at Qi Huaizhi, and explained in a panic: "Huaizhi, that's not what I meant."
Out of politeness, Qi Huaizhi remained gentle.
"It's okay, thank Auntie for me, but Grandpa isn't at home, so I won't bother you."
Bai Luo's face turned pale due to his refusal to avoid the question.
Just because of Su Yu, he doesn't even want to go home?
But they often visited each other when they were young...
Is Su Yu so good?
Everyone likes her!
