Chapter 208: Destiny is completely out of control
Soothing music was playing in the high-end restaurant. Chen Yanbai sat opposite and poured red wine for Chu Yao.
"Thank you." Chu Yao looked up and thanked politely.
The man had a straight nose and thin lips, and was wild and unruly. Chu Yao disliked his personality in his youth, but now he had become delicate and gentle.
The relationship between the two of them is pretty good now.
He pursued her but failed ten years ago, and they didn't get entangled, so there was no hatred.
We met again not long ago, and our attitudes were as natural as old friends.
Chu Yao didn't touch the glass of wine and asked bluntly: "Actually, do you want to pursue me?"
Chen Yanbai raised his eyes, met her round and deep eyes, and smiled heartily: "Yes, I pursued you ten years ago. When I came back this time, I learned that you have been single for so many years, I was so happy."
His attitude has always been clear, he always plays it straight and never hides anything.
Chu Yao asked again: "Then do you know why I have always been single?"
Chen Yanbai sat up straight, his eyes smiling, ready to listen carefully: "Why?"
Chu Yao stretched her legs forward, bent down, placed her fingers on the legs of her black suit pants, and slowly rolled them up.
Large patches of burned skin were exposed.
Uneven, hideous and ugly.
Chen Yanbai's smile froze, and his breathing became heavier.
Chu Yao couldn't accept it at first.
But after so many years, she has long since reconciled with her body, so she doesn't care too much about other people's opinions.
She lowered her trouser legs and smiled, saying, "Most of my body is covered in this skin... so don't waste your time on me."
After a long time, Chen Yanbai's eyes fell on her without blinking or avoiding: "I don't care."
Chu Yao remained calm: "But I'm still not in the mood for a relationship, so I'm sorry... But thank you anyway. You're the first man I've ever met who directly said he doesn't care."
Chu Yao's face and neck are fine, and the injuries on her body are covered by her clothes, so they are not visible at ordinary times. Therefore, there are still many people pursuing her over the years.
Every time, she showed these scars when those men showed their favor to her.
Their expressions were filled with fear and anxiety, and they ran away immediately.
There are also people who didn't say anything to your face, but then quietly distanced themselves from you.
Chen Yanbai stared at her, somewhat incredulous: "I'm the first one? I thought..."
Thinking of the name that had always suppressed him, Chen Yanbai shut up.
But Chu Yao also knew who he was talking about.
Qin Jiahuai.
Qin Jiahuai never told her that he didn't mind the scars, nor did he say that he minded them.
Because they haven't been in touch for a long time.
After this version of the ending came out, Chu Yao realized how fate could play tricks on people.
Xiao Qin ten years ago was indeed very responsible.
In order to correct his grandmother's accident, he insisted on not leaving until his grandmother was completely fine.
All human factors were ruled out afterwards.
Luan Jing, Xu Qingyun and her minions can no longer do evil.
But unexpectedly, there were still uncontrollable non-human factors...
Not entirely, half of it is man-made.
It was the fifth day after I prevented my grandma from having a car accident.
After evening self-study get out of class, Chu Yao went home as usual.
As soon as she got home, she saw from the window that her house was on fire and her grandmother's shadow was struggling in the flames.
She called the fire department first.
While the fire was not big, we immediately opened the fire extinguishers on every floor to save grandma.
But unexpectedly, the fire extinguisher had already broken down and was just a decoration there!
The fire truck was stuck in traffic for a long time before arriving.
During this time, she listened to her grandmother's painful and heartbreaking screams in the fire... She herself was unable to escape safely due to the spread of the fire, and her skin was burned over a large area.
Afterwards, she lay in the hospital, enduring severe pain, waiting for the results of the police investigation into the fire.
At that time, Qin Jiahuai was still by her side...but because of her own injuries, she had already vaguely rejected him.
The police quickly found out the cause of death from the fire.
The fire was caused by a short circuit in the circuit caused by the heater that my grandmother bought, which did not meet national regulations.
Chu Yao was in great pain physically at the time, but her mind was exceptionally calm.
Was grandma's death and my own burns purely due to this heater?
That's not the case.
When she returned home, it was still possible to save the patient.
She had studied residential fire protection seriously at school and learned how to use a fire extinguisher, so that she could be prepared to save people in time if an accident happened one day.
I never expected that the community collects property management fees every year, but they can't even do an annual inspection of the fire extinguishers! All the ones they put in are broken!
And why were the firefighters late?
That was because that night, Deputy Mayor Luan Zhengrong blocked the streets near Chu Yao's residential complex in order to record a video of "having fun with the people" for the central government.
They were having such a lively photo shoot over there that the fire truck had to take a long detour!
Due to various reasons, the rescue of myself and my grandmother was delayed.
As for Qin Jiahuai...
Chu Yao knew that she should blame the mayor for blocking the street for show, the monster industry for taking money but not doing anything, and the electric heater manufacturer for not producing products that met standards...
Qin Jiahuai did nothing wrong.
But she was really inferior at that time, and felt that she was so burned that she was no longer worthy of being friends with him, who was so handsome and handsome.
She used the matter of her grandmother as an excuse and said some very harsh and hurtful things to him, telling him that her grandmother bought the electric heater because he was sick and worried that he would be cold...
Gradually I became distant from him.
Qin Jiahuai was really outstanding. At the end of the second semester of his sophomore year in high school, he received an undergraduate admission offer from a top foreign university. Aunt Jiang happened to be doing scientific research in that country, so both mother and son went there.
Since then, the two of them have lost contact.
Aunt Jiang continued to care about her at first, but she didn't want to have any unclear involvement with Qin Jiahuai anymore, so she took the initiative to reduce contact, and gradually had nothing to do with Qin Jiahuai's family.
This is the first time since the modification...
Qin Jiahuai completely faded out of her life.
It was also because Chu Yao experienced this tragedy during her adolescence and had no way to complain, which led her to pay more attention to people's livelihood and embark on the path of doing people's livelihood news after she became an adult.
This time she was still targeting the Luan family. Besides that, she was also targeting facade projects, organizations that took money but didn't do the work, products that didn't meet the standards... She was not afraid to bite them.
Anyway, she is alone and not afraid of death.
Maybe she's lucky. Even though she acts so recklessly every day, not many people take revenge on her.
She lives a stable life and has a successful career.
So to summarize this version:
The career line becomes better on the original basis.
The entire emotional line is cleared.
-
After dinner, Chen Yanbai sent Chu Yao home.
In addition to clarifying this with him today, Chu Yao actually had another important matter: "By the way, did Xu Qingyun's parents adopt a girl named Wei You?"
Chen Yanbai nodded: "Yes."
Chu Yao: "Where is she now?"
Chen Yanbai didn't ask why she asked this, and replied directly: "In Tangjing. I don't know why she is as obsessed with Qin Jiahuai as her sister. After returning to China, she found out that Qin Jiahuai was working there, so she ran there too. Do you want her address? I can send it to you."
Chu Yao nodded in surprise: "That's what I want."
Chen Yanbai sent it to her immediately.
Chu Yao thanked him and planned to go home.
"Yaoyao." Chen Yanbai suddenly called her.
"Hmm?" Chu Yao turned around.
She thought he was going to ask her why she was asking about Wei You, and she had already made up an excuse.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yanbai didn't ask anything, but just said: "When you are in the mood for a relationship, remember to contact me."
