Chapter 394 He is a very loyal person
Jiang Yuxu: "I don't know."
Zheng Liling: "Huh, of course I like you. Otherwise, why would I take care of you for several days?"
Jiang Yuxu glanced at the red light ahead and calmly changed the subject: "You've been playing ball all day, aren't you tired? Stop talking."

Cheng Mi was on a long business trip in Beicheng and stayed in an apartment-style hotel arranged by the company. It had a large flat and complete facilities.
On the way back, Cheng Mi said that he had learned to cook several dishes in the past few years and wanted to show off his skills, so he ordered takeout from the fresh food supermarket on the way.
When they came back, they picked up the ingredients at the front desk.
Gui Qing followed Cheng Mi into the apartment.
Cheng Mi: "Please sit wherever you want. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare it."
Gui Qing nodded and didn't bother to be polite. She put on a pair of disposable slippers and walked to the open kitchen. Seeing Cheng Mi busy at work, she smiled and joked, "Are you sure you can eat it?"
Cheng Mi: "Of course I have. I've learned a lot in the past few years."
Gui Qing: "I hope so. I was very impressed by the sweet and sour pork back then."
After she said that, Cheng Mi also remembered this and laughed heartily twice.
This happened when he was in love with Gui Qing. They had been together for about two months, at the end of November. It was Gui Qing's birthday, and he wanted to prepare a surprise for her, so he learned how to make the sweet and sour pork that she had mentioned at that time.
The result was sweet and sour wood.
When you bite it, your teeth will pop.
That birthday surprise fell through, and the two of them ended up going out to a family restaurant and eating some not-so-authentic sweet and sour pork.
Cheng Mi also vowed to get this dish and make it for her on her birthday next year.
But before that time came, they broke up.
It was Gui Qing who proposed the breakup when they had been together for almost half a year, and there were no signs of it.
Thinking of this, Cheng Mi sighed, stopped what he was doing and stared at her: "Can I ask you a question?"
Gui Qing: "What?"
Cheng Mi: "Why did you break up with me then?"
Gui Qing laughed, "It's been so long, does the answer matter?"
Cheng Mi: "You know, people are like this. The more they can't get something, the harder it is to let it go. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been thinking about you for so many years."
When he said this, his eyes never left her face, and he did not hide his thoughts at all.
If an ordinary person was stared at with such fiery eyes, they would feel somewhat uncomfortable, but Gui Qing did not see anything unusual, and even looked at him openly.
She curled her lips, not knowing what she was thinking of, "Well, you're right."
The more you can’t get, the harder it is to let go. Isn’t that how people are?
Cheng Mi is, and so is she.
Cheng Mi: "So, why?"
Gui Qing: "Why did we break up? I changed my mind, I'm tired of you."
Cheng Mi: "What a scumbag's statement."
Gui Qing: "When you were with me, you knew who I was, didn't you? I didn't lie to you."
Cheng Mi: "Well, I like bad women."
"Come on, don't be so greasy." Gui Qing was amused by his words, "You're over 30 years old, and you're still doing this."
Cheng Mi: "I'm serious."
"No, you don't like me that much." Gui Qing smiled and shook her head. "It's just that I'm not as devoted to you as others, and you're not willing to accept it. When I become like that, you'll be annoyed too."
Although Gui Qing had no hobby of inquiring about her ex-boyfriend, they went to the same school and had a lot of overlapping circles of friends. When she met her good friend Tao Jiu last time, they talked about it unintentionally. She said that Cheng Mi had been doing well in recent years and was quite successful in both love and career.
Cheng Mi has good conditions in all aspects and is also a handsome guy. How could he not have been in a relationship for so many years?
It is because he is not bad that he feels bad about not being able to "completely conquer her".
However, Cheng Mi's goal is impossible to achieve.
No matter how much she likes someone, she will not revolve around him all day long and treat him as the whole world.
She can lose a lot of things in her life, but not her backbone.
"I thought you had that intention when you met me recently." Cheng Mi was silent for a moment, then said with a smile, "It seems I was wrong."
"You asked me out first. I don't have any friends in North City, and work is stressful. It's nice to have an old classmate around to relax." Gui Qing said calmly, "Other than that, I don't have any other intentions. If you feel like I'm keeping you hanging, I apologize."
"What are you talking about?" Cheng Mi waved his hand. "I'm not the type to get defensive and jump up and down after being rejected."
Gui Qing smiled but said nothing.
…
Cheng Mi's cooking skills have indeed improved a lot. After eating the sweet and sour pork tenderloin he made again after more than six years, Gui Qing was amazed.
She raised an eyebrow: "Amazing, much better than the takeout I ordered."
Cheng Mi: "Do you often order takeout now?"
Gui Qing: "On weekends, eat in the cafeteria during work."
Cheng Mi: "At Yuxu Law Firm?"
Gui Qing: "Yeah."
Cheng Mi: "How's the food at the law firm?"
Gui Qing: "It's okay, quite light."
Cheng Mi: "Yeah, he eats very light food, I guess it's based on his taste."
Talking about this, Cheng Mi and Gui Qing recounted the past. "We lived in the dormitory at the time. Can you imagine? During his two years as a master's student, his breakfast remained the same. It was like a set routine."
Gui Qing: "Bag or oatmeal?"
"Oh my god, you knew that too?" Cheng Mi was surprised. "Don't tell me he still eats like this now."
Gui Qing shrugged.
"That's terrible. It's been so many years." Cheng Mi sighed. "He's a very loyal person. He hasn't been in a relationship for so many years. Could he really be waiting for that school girl... Hey, what's her name?"
"I can't remember it. I'll ask my classmates later." Cheng Mi racked his brains for a long time but still couldn't remember the name.
Gui Qing lowered her eyes to look at the meat on the plate and asked nonchalantly, "Was Jiang Lu very close to her at the time?"
Cheng Mi: "I think so. He doesn't usually go out to play. I heard them talking on the phone a few times in the dormitory. Anyway, I have never seen him treat any female classmate so nicely."
Gui Qing hummed.
She still remembers the attitude thing clearly.
At the beginning, Jiang Yuxu's attitude towards her was extremely cold, to the point that he rejected her in public and even refused to cooperate with her in the game.
That was also the first time in her life that she encountered setbacks in a social setting, so she remembered his name.
Later, Cheng Mi explained to her that he was just like that. There was nothing else on his mind except studying. He didn't like to interact with the opposite sex. Many people pursued him, but he ignored them.
Such a person would not contact the other person privately unless he is interested in the other person.
Gui Qing: "Then it really is Bai Yueguang."
Cheng Mi: “It’s hard to say.”
He was helpless. "Yuxu is very tight-lipped. I can't get anything out of him. I don't think he'd pursue anyone, otherwise he would have done it long ago."
"Then as a good brother, you should help him." Gui Qing said nonchalantly, "What if Bai Yueguang is still single now?"
