Chapter 59 You Are Sick
At this moment, Wu Zhao's eyes were full of excitement and his smile was strange. He didn't look like a man who had just found out that his fiancée liked his best friend.
Qi Nian had seen countless shocking things, but he had never encountered such a confusing situation.
He even suspected that Wu Zhao had gone crazy because of anger.
After all, he and Yue Mingzhu have been in love for ten years, from the innocent days in high school to now. In Qi Nian's opinion, this relationship is very precious. After all, there are only so many decades in a person's life.
What's more, the ten years they experienced were the best time of their lives.
Thinking of this, Qi Nian opened his mouth and tried to comfort Wu Zhao: "Are you... okay?"
"I'm fine now, especially fine, haha, I've never felt so good!" Wu Zhao smiled so hard that his teeth were showing, and he looked very happy.
If the situation was any other way and the other person smiled like this, Qi Nian would think that the other person was truly happy.
But in this situation, Wu Zhao's smile seemed even more weird.
Qi Nian swallowed his saliva, stepped back silently, and wanted to leave his heart.
As a result, Wu Zhao suddenly grabbed his hand, and the other party looked at him with gratitude: "Thank you for your support. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long I would have to suffer. Thank you!"
Everyone thought: "..."
Don't do this, I'm scared.
Qi Nian looked at Wu Zhao tremblingly, but fortunately the other party quickly let him go and walked straight towards Yue Mingzhu.
Qi Nian was afraid that the other party was really mentally disturbed by the stimulation, so he hurried to catch up.
He had just stepped on the sand without having time to put on his shoes, and at this moment his feet stepped on something hard, causing pain in the soles of his feet.
But Qi Nian no longer cared about his feet and quickly followed Wu Zhao to Sang Yu and Yue Mingzhu.
"Wu Zhao, what's wrong with you?" Sang Yu had just finished talking to Yue Mingzhu. Because Yue Mingzhu almost fell down just now, he helped her up. The atmosphere became a little weird. Sang Yu felt uncomfortable all over and was about to find an excuse to leave, but when he turned around, he saw Wu Zhao with a weird smile.
Sang Yu was shocked. He had never seen Wu Zhao like this before.
Looking at Qi Nian again, the latter had a frown on his face, as if something big had happened.
Yue Mingzhu felt a little guilty when she saw Wu Zhao coming over suddenly. She couldn't help but accidentally revealed her feelings for Sang Yu, but she knew that this was not right, so when she was caught off guard and saw Wu Zhao, she felt terrible.
"Wu Zhao, why did you come here suddenly? Haha... I almost fell just now, luckily Sang Yu helped me up." Yue Mingzhu broke the strange atmosphere with an awkward smile.
"Mingzhu, I already know." After Wu Zhao was happy, he felt relieved, but also a little disappointed.
Unexpectedly, the feelings between him and Mingzhu would fade one day, because they had been together for a long time, and the hormones of love had decreased a lot, and were replaced by family affection.
In fact, they are more like family members than lovers. They care about each other and pay attention to each other, but there is not much impulse of love.
Originally, Wu Zhao thought he was the only one who felt this way, and he felt that he had let Mingzhu down, so when his mother urged him to get married, he asked Mingzhu for her opinion, but in the end he decided to give them an explanation for the past ten years.
He suppressed the urge to fall in love again and decided to just be friends with Sang Yu from now on.
But he didn't expect that Mingzhu would have the same idea as him. In this case, they should not compromise with each other.
But who would have thought that the former lovers would become rivals in love?
"What did you know?" Yue Mingzhu had a bad feeling. She had been hiding it very well. She would not do anything to let Wu Zhao down, but she still couldn't control her heart.
She was prepared to suppress her emotions, but Wu Zhao seemed to have noticed it now.
Yue Mingzhu looked at Wu Zhao cautiously and clenched her fingers unconsciously, hoping that he would not say anything she didn't want to hear.
However, Wu Zhao obviously would not do as he wished. He was eager to put an end to the mutual torture between the two. He looked at Yue Mingzhu and said, "Mingzhu, you like Sang Yu, right?"
Now not only Yue Mingzhu but also Sang Yu was about to explode.
No, I was so unlucky that I ended up getting mixed up between you two young lovers.
He walked silently to Qi Nian. At least when Wu Zhao beat him, there was someone to help.
He now understood why Qi Nian had that expression just now.
At this moment, Qi Nian had a bad feeling. He looked at the clueless Sang Yu with sympathy and whispered, "I think, should we run now?"
"I think it's better to explain it clearly." Sang Yu also said in a low voice, obviously he didn't know what was about to happen.
Yue Mingzhu's thoughts were exposed, and the one exposed was her lover of ten years. She was a little flustered and denied it subconsciously: "No...nothing, Xiao Zhao, did you misunderstand something? How could I?"
"Yes, Mingzhu and I are just friends. We got to know each other because of you. Wu Zhao, are you overthinking it?" Sang Yu laughed dryly.
He really thinks he is innocent and he did nothing.
If I had known I would not have come today. Sang Yu hated himself for not rejecting others.
Wu Zhao glanced at Sang Yu after hearing this and smiled: "I know, it's not your fault. It's just that Mingzhu has a crush on you."
Sang Yu: “…”
Wu Zhao then said to Yue Mingzhu: "Mingzhu, we have known each other for ten years. I know you. Please don't lie to me."
He had said so much, Yue Mingzhu could only purse her lips and said: "Wu Zhao, I'm sorry. But I really never thought of betraying you, and I never did anything behind your back, but... I think there is a saying that is very true, maybe couples who have been in love for a long time but have not married, maybe they will never get married in the future, right?"
"You don't have to say sorry to me." Wu Zhao suddenly said, and he smiled: "We are actually the same."
Yue Mingzhu: “?”
She laughed dryly: "What...what do you mean? You like someone else too?"
Sang Yu & Qi Nian: Why do you have to talk about this in front of us?!
The two people now have the same feeling: they want to escape!
Wu Zhao did not deny Yue Mingzhu's words. He said something surprising: "I didn't expect that we were so similar that we would like the same person."
Sang Yu: “???”
What are you talking about?
Yue Mingzhu widened her eyes in disbelief and raised her voice a few notches: "You like Sang Yu too?"
Wu Zhao nodded and did not deny it.
"No, don't you like girls?" Yue Mingzhu felt terrible. She used to feel sorry for Wu Zhao, but now he told her that her boyfriend and she both liked the same... boy?
"I might be bisexual, Mingzhu. I was attracted to you before, and I didn't lie to you." Wu Zhao was particularly frank: "But later, I found that my feelings for you may have turned into more of a family relationship."
Yue Mingzhu didn't know what to say. Blame Wu Zhao? But she herself was not that noble, and she had no right to blame the other party.
In that case...
"Okay, then let's compete fairly." Yue Mingzhu said directly. Anyway, after saying this, there would be nothing between her and Wu Zhao anymore. At most, they would become relatives, and she didn't want to make things too ugly.
"Okay." Wu Zhao said, "I'll go back and tell my parents that our engagement is canceled."
“No…” Sang Yu held it in for a long time. He really couldn’t hold it in any longer. Even if he had the best temper, he would have started to swear. His handsome face was full of confusion about this world, and finally he said, “Are you sick?”
The final result ended with Sang Yu, who usually had a good temper, going berserk.
Qi Nian, who had watched the whole process, didn't dare to say a word. Feeling entangled, he chose to quietly follow Sang Yu away.
"You're sick! You're really sick!" Sang Yu kept repeating this sentence, because there were no words that could express his feelings now.
Qi Nian coughed lightly, not knowing how to comfort Sang Yu. He felt that this matter was indeed very upsetting.
Sang Yu reacted, looked at Qi Nian, and said apologetically: "Sorry, I didn't mean you."
"It's okay..." Qi Nian said, "I understand."
"Huh..." Sang Yu tried hard to calm down. He had always been a stable person, but! He really couldn't calm down now!
Yue Mingzhu and Wu Zhao are quite capable to have made him like this.
"You said today wouldn't be April Fool's Day, right? Haha...the two of them teamed up to tease me on purpose?" Sang Yu said as he flipped through the calendar frantically. Good, it wasn't April Fool's Day.
Suddenly, a call popped up on his cell phone. Sang Yu saw that it was Wu Zhao who opened the call, and his brows wrinkled. He hesitated for a moment, answered the call, and without waiting for the other party to say anything, he immediately said quickly: "I don't care what your situation is, don't bother me!"
Then, he quickly hung up the phone and blocked all contact information for Wu Zhao and Yue Mingzhu.
"That's great. The world is quiet now." Sang Yu leaned back in his chair and relaxed.
The two of them had already boarded the car going back, and Wu Zhao and Yue Mingzhu couldn't catch up for a while.
Qi Nian didn't know what to say, so he handed him an unopened bottle of water.
Sang Yu took the water, thanked him, and drank half the bottle in one gulp. He calmed down and suddenly said with a smile: "Qi Nian, do you know? I used to envy Wu Zhao and Yue Mingzhu. I thought their love was the most beautiful."
result……
"They have been together for ten years?" Sang Yu was confused: "Is the relationship of ten years so fragile? I feel like a sinner now."
Sang Yu is a person who is prone to internal friction. He gives people a very comfortable feeling because when something happens, he will first reflect on himself.
Qi Nian comforted him: "It's not your fault. I don't know if emotions are fragile, but maybe Wu Zhao and Yue Mingzhu no longer love each other."
Qi Nian: "Like they said themselves, they are more like family members."
"Thank you for comforting me. Fortunately, I brought you with me today." Sang Yu smiled, and then sighed: "What is this all about."
"I used to feel that work was so tiring, and those complicated interpersonal relationships made me want to escape. But now I find that work is actually pretty good, as long as I don't have to go through all that." Sang Yu said sincerely.
Because Sang Yu is good-looking, he is definitely upper-class among boys. The most rare thing is that he has a good personality and is used to taking care of others, which leads to a lot of people liking him.
It's not like I haven't encountered someone confessing to a friend suddenly while they were just hanging out together.
After he refused, those people stopped being friends with him.
Sang Yu thought that if he made friends with a couple like Yue Mingzhu and Wu Zhao who had a stable relationship, he would not encounter such things. In the end, the two of them shattered Sang Yu's three views.
However, this time it was not that they took the initiative to distance themselves from Sang Yu, but that Sang Yu did not want to continue to contact them.
Otherwise, Sang Yu wouldn't know how to face their parents.
Seeing that Sang Yu had calmed down, Qi Nian thought for a moment and said, "If you have anything to say, you can send me a message."
"Thank you." Sang Yu said with a smile. He looked at Qi Nian's delicate and beautiful face and felt relieved instantly.
Very good, Qi Nian is so beautiful, and look at those pure and clear eyes, completely free of worldly desires. I feel very safe, and I probably won’t encounter a situation like today again.
It’s not that Sang Yu likes to have wild thoughts, it’s just that he is really scared now.
Qi Nian returned home and only then realized that his feet were a little painful. He recalled that he must have accidentally stepped on something with his bare feet when he was chasing Wu Zhao.
He limped back to his room to see what was going on.
"Nian Nian?"
Qi Nian turned around and saw Chu Rongshi coming to fetch water.
"Brother." Qi Nian greeted weakly.
"Well, you're back so early?" Chu Rongshi said, his eyes fell on Qi Nian's feet again, he frowned: "What's wrong with your feet?"
"I don't know, it hurts a little." Qi Nian then remembered that it was the weekend and there was a high chance that his brother would be at home. He limped and said, "I'll go back to the room and check."
Chu Rongshi put down the cup and said, "It looks like it's at the bottom of my feet. Let me show you."
Qi Nian thought it was indeed not very convenient to watch, so he nodded.
After returning to the room, Qi Nian sat on a stool and took off his shoes.
Then it was very embarrassing because he was in such a hurry that he put on his shoes in a hurry without even washing his feet. Now his feet were covered with sand.
Seeing Chu Rongshi still standing beside him, Qi Nian quickly looked left and right, trying to find a wet towel to wipe his feet.
Then, Chu Rongshi took the wet towel on the table first. When Qi Nian reached out to take it, the other party had already pulled out the wet towel and squatted in front of him.
Then, a big warm hand easily grabbed Qi Nian's wrist. He was startled and subconsciously retracted his white toes, trying to pull his foot back.
His wrist was gripped tighter, and Chu Rongshi frowned slightly: "Don't move."
Qi Nian immediately stopped moving and watched Chu Rongshi kneel on one knee, his foot resting on his leg, his ankle fixed by his partner. Chu Rongshi held a clean wet towel in his other hand and carefully wiped the sand off the back of his foot, and then his toes...
Qi Nian shrank back, Chu Rongshi looked up at him, and he said pitifully, "Itchy."
Chu Rongshi hummed, and his hands moved much faster.
After a moment, the other person threw the wet wipe into the trash can, and Qi Nian quickly took out another one and handed it to him.
Chu Rongshi didn't answer and looked at him with confusion.
"It's a little dirty, brother, please wipe it off." Qi Nian's face turned red, and he was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig the ground with his toes.
"No need, your foot is broken. I'll go get some iodine." Chu Rongshi said and went out.
Qi Nian had no choice but to take the wet towel and wipe his feet again to make sure they were clean.
Halfway through wiping, he paused and suddenly thought of a question: No, I can wipe it myself, right? Why did my brother just wipe my feet?
Did you forget?
Just as he was thinking blankly, Chu Rongshi came in with iodine and squatted in front of Qi Nian.
Qi Nian pursed her lips and stretched out her feet obediently.
His skin is fair to begin with, and the skin here doesn't see the sun for years, so it appears fair and almost transparent.
Iodine was applied to the wound, and Qi Nian couldn't help but let out a "hiss". Chu Rongshi didn't stop and quickly disinfected him.
There was some sand on the wound, which he cleaned up.
"Okay, don't put on your shoes for now." Chu Rongshi stood up: "I'll bring you lunch later."
Although Chu Rongshi spoke very gently, Qi Nian still nodded subconsciously.
After Chu Rongshi left, he came to his senses and thought: Could it be that my wounds are very deep and serious?
He didn't even look at it carefully just now.
Thinking of this, Qi Nian hurried to check and found that the wound was only slightly longer than his fingernail.
Qi Nian: No...that’s it?
Is this serious? He began to doubt his life.
Although he had a myriad of thoughts on his mind, Qi Nian still ate lunch obediently in his room.
——
Qi Nian didn't expect to receive a call from Wu Zhao. He thought the other party had something important to say, after all, it seemed quite urgent. It turned out that Wu Zhao called him and asked if he could help contact Sang Yu.
Because Sang Yu blocked all his contact methods, and judging from his tone, he seems a bit pitiful.
Qi Nian couldn't help but rolled his eyes and rejected the other party.
If he wasn't socially anxious, he would even want to pull the other person and tell him to stay away from Sang Yu. Sang Yu was so pitiful to have to meet a weirdo couple like you.
With the experience of Wu Zhao, when Yue Mingzhu called him again, he simply didn't answer.
Qi Nian had no intention of telling Sang Yu about this, but unexpectedly Sang Yu took the initiative to call and ask.
Hearing that Qi Nian had indeed received a call from Wu Zhao, Sang Yu felt a headache: "Guess how I know this?"
"How did you know?" Qi Nian asked subconsciously.
"Hehe...the two of them called all the friends I know." Sang Yu's tone was full of helplessness, and a little bit of luck: "Fortunately, they didn't tell others why they couldn't contact me, otherwise I would have been socially dead."
Sang Yu is in great pain now: "I don't even dare to go back to where I live. They will definitely come looking for me, but they probably have a bottom line and won't come to my company."
"Ah... where do you live then?" Qi Nian didn't expect Sang Yu's situation to be so difficult.
"I live in the office." Sang Yu said, "Fortunately, the lease on my original house was about to expire. I went to look at new houses these two days. I'm lucky enough to be able to move in soon."
"That's good." Qi Nian breathed a sigh of relief.
After asking Sang Yu if he needed help with moving, he said that it was not necessary and that the moving company could handle it.
After hanging up the phone, Qi Nian shook his head, hoping that Wu Zhao and Yue Mingzhu would wake up soon. Even if Sang Yu wanted to fall in love, she would find someone normal. If she really got together with one of them, people who didn't know the situation would probably scold Sang Yu to death.
Maybe they would think that Sang Yu was interfering in other people's relationships. Who would have thought that the real situation was so outrageous.
——
It is really inconvenient to get hurt on the sole of the foot. The wound is not big and can be ignored if it is on other parts of the body. But it is different on the sole of the foot.
It hurts when I walk, so Qi Nian has been wearing cotton slippers at home these two days. Fortunately, it is almost winter now, so it is not hot to wear cotton slippers.
I chatted with Lu Ze and Liu Yu about gossips remotely, and watched Zhou Jing's latest variety show. Zhou Jing has already made his debut successfully, and the company sent their group to a popular variety show, hoping to give them a push while they are still popular. After all, based on past experience, these people are estimated to be most popular when the show is broadcast. As for the rest, they have to rely on themselves.
Qi Nian entertained himself for a while, went downstairs for a walk, and prepared to go back to his room to study later.
When I got downstairs, I saw Ning Min making a phone call.
Ning Min frowned: "You didn't even ask what the two children were like. Why did they have to be separated for no reason?"
Aunt Lin was almost mad at them: "I asked them, but they refused to say anything. It didn't look like there was any problem with their relationship. They said their feelings had faded and they wanted to continue to be friends. I did some ideological work for a day, but they were determined to break up. I want to know what's going on!"
"If that's the case, it's really a pity. You should talk to the child nicely. You can't force relationships," Ning Min comforted her.
"I understand, but I just can't understand it. The marriage is already arranged, so you tell me, don't ask me what to say. It's really worrying." Aunt Lin didn't know what to say, she was so angry that she was incoherent.
After all, the two parties are engaged, and it is not just a simple love relationship. This involves issues of two families.
The parents of both sides couldn't understand why they suddenly wanted to break up just a few days after getting engaged after dating for ten years?
"I'll go ask my little brat's friends and find out what's going on!" Aunt Lin seemed determined to find out the reason.
Ning Min comforted her a few more times before hanging up the phone.
Seeing Qi Nian, she couldn't help but say to him: "Tell me, Xiao Zhao and Ming Zhu are doing fine, why do they have to separate again?" Ning Min was a little confused about the young people's thoughts.
Qi Nian laughed: "I... I don't know, maybe I feel it's inappropriate?"
"It's been ten years, and now you think it's inappropriate?" Ning Min felt that this statement was untenable.
But she just muttered a few words, and it was not her business to interfere.
Qi Nian breathed a sigh of relief and prayed in his heart: I hope this matter will just pass like this, it’s good enough now.
Otherwise, it is hard to imagine how Aunt Lin and the others would react when they knew the truth.
However, sometimes God just doesn't do what you want.
Aunt Lin called several of Wu Zhao's friends but got no answer. When she called the last one, the other party was a little hesitant: "Aunt, actually Wu Zhao didn't tell me the reason, but he was drunk that day and accidentally let it slip."
Aunt Lin thought to herself that there must be another reason. She quickly said, "Tell me what's going on. If it's just a small conflict, maybe we as parents can help resolve it. It's really not easy for these two children to come this far."
"Auntie, why don't we just forget it?" The other party was a little afraid that if he said it out loud, Auntie Lin would get angry.
Aunt Lin would never give him a chance to regret. She finally caught someone who knew the inside story!
The other party had no choice but to say, "Auntie, if I said it, don't tell Wu Zhao that it was me who said it. The main thing is that the fact is..."
"Don't worry, Auntie won't betray you." Auntie Lin's voice sounded very gentle.
It's just that her smile was a little scary at this time. Haha, if she knew it was her son's fault, she would beat that brat to death!
