Chapter 49
If she's not going to help, then why hire her at such a high salary? Just to watch her get bullied for fun? That wouldn't be such a bad taste.
Xie Yinhe immediately collected all the memories about Cheng Huaian in her mind. In her impression, she seemed to have never offended this person in the past ten years in Xiaotai Lane, and she had even helped him and Rong Susu. It was not worth it for the other party to spend a lot of money to invite him back to play as a ball.
"Yinhe, actually you hate me, right?" Cheng Huaian stopped pretending. Xie Yinhe was very stubborn when it came to socializing. If you didn't explain it to her clearly, she would never come around.
Huh? Even this was discovered, and she thought she had hidden it well.
How should I put it? I didn't like it. From the first sight.
When she was fourteen, the cool and arrogant boy who moved to Xiaotai Lane seduced her best friend away. From then on, the world of him and Rong Susu was no longer filled with cartoons and TV dramas, but with the three words Cheng Huaian.
Rong Susu kept nagging in her ears every day.
Yinhe, did you know that Cheng Huaian smiled today?
He was wearing a white shirt today, which was super clean. I have never seen a boy look so good in a white shirt.
In short, Rong Susu's heart is devoted to Cheng Huaian.
When she was a child, she and Rong Susu had agreed to go to Shanghai to attend university together. At that time, they would go to the riverside to walk together and buy all kinds of new clothes. However, when Cheng Huaian came, Rong Susu changed her mind and followed him to Beicheng. In the end, Xie Yinhe had to go to Shanghai alone.
In fact, these are easy to explain. What makes her despise Cheng Huaian the most is that he is so slow in handling relationships. He has already done that with Su Su, but he has not broken up with Cui Ying yet.
If he had broken up with Cui Ying earlier, none of those things would have happened later.
It's more than just disgusting, Xie Yinhe really hates her.
"I admire your ability, but I don't agree with your character." She didn't want to lie and spoke frankly.
Cheng Huaian was not angry at all, "You are the only one from Xiaotaixiang who doesn't lie."
"Just consider it as a compliment." Xie Yinhe thought that since they had already fallen out, she could probably fire herself. At least she wouldn't have to pay the penalty.
But she miscalculated again. Cheng Huaian had no intention of firing her. Instead, he politely poured her a cup of tea.
The tea was fragrant and it was good tea, but she was not in the mood to savor it slowly.
Are you preparing for a long talk?
Xie Yinhe was confused. She shouldn't have been tempted by money and impulsively fell into the trap dug by Cheng Huaian.
With her level of skill, she can find a job as a programmer and easily earn hundreds of thousands of dollars. Why should she deal with a bunch of cunning people here?
"Actually, my conditions are very simple. You might as well listen to them before making a decision."
"You say." Xie Yinhe listened attentively. She wanted to see what Cheng Huaian was up to after going through so much trouble.
In fact, Cheng Huaian's conditions were very simple. He had pushed Rong Susu further and further away with his own hands, and now it was difficult to pull her back, so he needed someone's help.
"Tell me everything Rong Susu does, especially his and Yan Jiayu's movements."
Xie Yinhe is called the big sister not only because she has a strong personality, is brave and resourceful, but most importantly, she is loyal and righteous. She is the most popular person in Xiaotai Lane, and she will not betray Rong Susu morally, no matter how much money she is offered.
But after hearing Cheng Huaian's conditions, she couldn't help but ask with a puzzled look on her face, "Are you two getting divorced because you cheated on me?"
"No." The answer was straightforward and didn't sound like a lie.
"Has Susu fallen in love with someone else?"
“No.”
"Then it must be your problem, otherwise why would Cui Ying be in your company?" Xie Yinhe was completely confused by Cheng Huaian.
"I said, I didn't cheat." Cheng Huaian emphasized again.
Cui Ying was indeed the fuse for his divorce with Rong Susu, but she was also a victim. He was the perpetrator, so he had to make up for it.
"Then what kind of divorce are you two getting?"
"Rong Susu lied to me back then. She said she was pregnant, but she wasn't. When I found out the truth, I was so angry that I impulsively decided to divorce her. I just hated her."
"If you hate her, why are you trying to separate her and Yan Jiayu now?"
"Because I don't want her to be with another man."
Originally, he had enough time to win Rong Susu's favor, but who knew that Cheng Yaojin would appear in the middle of the road and disrupt all his plans.
Oh, what kind of logic is this? Is it so difficult to say that you regret it? Xie Yinhe laughed out loud.
No one dared to be so presumptuous in his office, except Rong Susu.
Cheng Huaian didn't understand what was wrong with Xie Yinhe, he just looked at her quietly, waiting for her to return to normal.
"That's all?" After laughing, Xie Yinhe was still a little unconvinced. Cheng Huaian was not such an impulsive person. He would not divorce easily if he thought carefully about everything. After all, if he hated Rong Susu, he would not divide so much property to her.
There were some rumors in the group, and Xie Yinhe had heard some of them, but the authenticity of the news still needed to be verified by the parties involved.
"Something happened last year, and I did it to protect her." After pondering for a while, Cheng Huaian explained.
That makes sense.
"Who told you that Susu's pregnancy was fake?" Xie Yinhe took two tissues from Cheng Huaian's desk and wiped her tears. She laughed so hard that tears came out.
"Cui Ying." Cheng Huaian did not hide it, but it seemed that Rong Susu had concealed the truth about their divorce from everyone, including Xie Yinhe.
"What else? What else did Susu lie to you about?"
"Fu Yingchen is not her boyfriend at all. She hired him to force me to marry her."
Xie Yinhe feels that sometimes I think Cheng Huaian is really the smartest person in the world, so why does he become so stupid when it comes to love?
Or maybe the Rong Susu in his heart must always be perfect. If there is even a little flaw, his obsession will be shattered.
It’s not that he can’t accept that Rong Susu lied to him, but rather that he can’t accept himself for falling in love with an imperfect person.
It’s not a good thing for people to have too strong self-esteem, as it will make life too tiring.
"I just want to ask you a question. Did you love Rong Susu when you were dating Cui Ying?"
Cheng Huaian did not answer immediately. Yes, he loved her. There was no doubt that Rong Susu was the only person he had ever loved in his life.
He was with Cui Ying because of his teacher's instructions, and responsibility outweighed love, but being with Rong Susu was completely different.
Immersed in spiritual and physical pleasure, for the first time he thought about someone day and night, and finally knew what it felt like to be anxious and troubled. Whenever he thought about Rong Susu being with someone else, crazy jealousy would overwhelm him like a devastating blow.
After a long time, he nodded.
"Then you are really stupid. Cui Ying only saw the appearance, but it is not actually like that."
***
Seven years ago, Xiaotai Lane.
"Ah! Thank you Yinhe!"
A sharp scream drowned out the chirping of cicadas outside. Xie Yinhe almost felt like she was going deaf. She got up from the sofa impatiently, put on her slippers and prepared to go to the bathroom.
"Did you fall into the toilet, or did you forget to get some paper?"
The bathroom door was opened, and Rong Susu, who was sitting on the toilet, was stunned and handed over the pregnancy test stick.
"I am pregnant."
Xie Yinhe didn't think much about it and picked it up directly. It showed that she was pregnant, with two bars.
After an awkward silence, she finally understood, Aaaah!
"Xie Yinhe, why are you shouting so loudly? I'm going to deafen my ears!" Rong Susu sat on the toilet, covering her ears with her hands, looking pitiful.
Xie Yinhe threw the pregnancy test stick at her again with a look of disgust, shook his hands, and quickly turned on the faucet to wash it carefully.
"Shit, there's your pee on this."
Rong Susu...
Is now the time to care about this?
"Xie Yinhe, are you listening to me? I said I'm pregnant." The girl widened her eyes and was angry.
Xie Yinhe scratched the back of his head, chuckled, and said congratulations. Suddenly, he realized something was wrong, "Rong Susu, whose child are you pregnant with?!"
Rong Susu on the opposite side looked embarrassed and pointed outside the door.
After learning about her and Cheng Huaian, it was Xie Yinhe who was speechless. The pearl of Xiaotaixiang fell into the hands of this man last night.
"Aren't you taking precautions?" She sighed, looking at Rong Susu angrily. "Haven't you already paid for your physiology class? If you don't want to get pregnant, you should use proper contraception."
Her pretty face immediately turned red like a cherry, and Rong Susu hesitated for a long time without being able to explain what she meant.
"Oh, you don't understand. Sometimes I just forget."
No matter how close she is to Xie Yinhe, it is impossible for her to tell her about what happened in bed with Cheng Huaian.
Sometimes, the condom may be used up and there is no time to buy a new one, and sometimes it may be torn due to excessive movement.
She thought those times were safe periods and didn't take them seriously, but who knew she would actually get pregnant.
Xie Yinhe didn't know what to say. They were all adults, and this relationship was complicated and difficult to sort out. It was not easy for her to judge, but she should respect it.
"Rong Susu, even after all this, he still hasn't broken up with that girl?"
Xie Yinhe had to admire that Cheng Huaian and Cui Ying were truly in love. She used to think that Cheng Huaian was such a sucker for having such a petty and take-advantageous girlfriend. Now she thinks that this man is so shameless that he secretly slept with Rong Susu behind his girlfriend's back.
As soon as this topic was mentioned, Rong Susu's face immediately turned from bright to gloomy. She did not force Cheng Huaian and Cui Ying to break up. She had already snatched someone else's boyfriend. Forcing them to break up would be too shameless.
"What should we do with Fu Yingchen?" Xie Yinhe frowned. She had forgotten that Rong Susu had a nominal boyfriend.
"I'll go find Fu Yingchen this afternoon and apologize to him."
Rong Susu decided to break up with Fu Yingchen. Originally, there was nothing between them. When Fu Yingchen confessed his love to her, she agreed to it in order to anger Cheng Huaian.
Fu Yingchen is her high school classmate and has always been very attentive to her, but Rong Susu only has Cheng Huaian in her heart. This is too unfair to him, so she should not waste his youth.
"Rong Susu, Cheng Huaian has a girlfriend!" Fu Yingchen was indeed unbelievable when he learned the truth.
He was quite angry, but then he thought helplessly that when Rong Susu agreed to his confession, he was still worried and anxious. How could such a goddess like an ordinary person like him? It turned out that there must be something wrong when things are abnormal.
"I'm sorry." Rong Susu was filled with guilt and apologized sincerely, not even daring to look Fu Yingchen in the eye.
She was indeed wrong in this matter, and even if Fu Yingchen got angry, she would accept it.
Such a beautiful and proud girl, even if she is a little vain and selfish, but in Fu Yingchen's eyes she is still beautiful and flawless. The bastard is that Cheng Huaian who dared to let her down like this.
"Susu, find a chance to tell Cheng Huaian that you are pregnant and we are going to get married, and see how he reacts." Fu Yingchen firmly held Rong Susu's hand and calmly met those astonished eyes.
The touch of my palm is soft and delicate, just like the description in the book about skin as smooth as cream, but it is just like this. This is the first and probably the only time.
