Chapter 032: One of them is his concubine.
Memories of the past came flooding back, and Shi Runrun suddenly thought of the scene when she first heard this name.
It was also late at night like this that he fell asleep on a bench. In his dream, he called out the words "early morning"...
Moreover, that day, Shi Runrun noticed that when he said that, there were tears in his eyes...
She couldn't understand what kind of woman could leave such an unforgettable impression in his heart and make him cry and call her name.
Shi Runrun envied the woman named Zao Zao, but at the same time, she felt very heartbroken.
Today's happiness finally appeared, but the reality was so cruel that it pulled her out of her beautiful dream.
She was afraid that, even if she gave birth to the baby, she would not be able to stay in the Xiao family and stay by his side...
…
The next morning, Shi Runrun woke up in a daze.
Her first reaction was to touch the bed beside her. It was empty, cold and without any temperature.
This means that he went out to the balcony to make a phone call last night and never went back to bed.
Her heart suddenly twitched and she felt a sharp pain. Shi Runrun sat on the bed, lowered her head, and her eyes were a little moist.
The first night, he didn't hold her to sleep...
But no matter how depressed she was, she still had to go to class today.
If you are absent and the teacher calls your name, your regular marks will be deducted and your final grade will be affected.
Shi Runrun cleaned herself upstairs for a long time, trying hard to apply ice to her red and swollen eyes.
But even so, when she went downstairs, the redness around her eyes was still noticed by her sharp-eyed grandmother.
At the dining table, Grandma Xiao reached out and grabbed her little hand, rubbing it and asked, "Runrun, what's wrong? Your eyes are red. Did you cry?"
Shi Runrun didn't want the old lady to worry about what happened between them, so she instinctively lied: "No, grandma, I didn't sleep well yesterday, and I woke up this morning with tears in my eyes for no reason."
Grandma Xiao uttered an "oh," glanced at her suspiciously, and said to her with concern: "If you are bullied, remember to tell us, his grandfather and I will help you take care of it!"
Although he didn't mention the name of the person who was bullied, it was obvious.
Shi Runrun smiled and shook her head, picked up the seafood porridge that Sister Lin had specially prepared for her, and put it into her mouth.
Maybe it’s because I’m in a bad mood, so no matter how delicious the breakfast is, I have no appetite.
While eating, Shi Runrun asked casually: "Grandma, where is Xiao Xuezheng?"
Grandma replied, "Xue Zheng went to the next city at five in the morning. I heard there is a project to discuss there."
"Five o'clock?! Doesn't that mean he left for the airport in the wee hours of the morning?"
Grandma Xiao nodded, and Shi Runrun finally realized that this was the reason why he didn't go to bed?
Did she blame him wrongly?
But last night, she really heard the two words "early"...
For a moment, Shi Runrun really wanted to ask her grandparents if they knew who Zao Zao was.
But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.
She can now be sure that she must be a woman who is very important to Xiao Xue Zheng.
My grandparents might know, but if I dig deep into the matter, won’t it embarrass them and myself?
Shi Runrun continued to eat breakfast with such hesitation, when she suddenly heard her grandmother say, "Originally, Xue Zheng from the neighboring city was supposed to discuss this project yesterday afternoon, but his grandfather said he wanted to hold a wedding for you, so he said he would accompany you to choose a wedding dress first, and postponed it until today. I saw that when he left this morning, he didn't look very energetic at all."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
Shi Runrun felt uncomfortable when she heard this, but in the end, she was still worried about his health.
Xiao Xue Zheng was not at home, so after she had breakfast, she took the car driven by her family's driver to go to school.
When the car was about a hundred meters away from Peking University, Shi Runrun asked the driver to stop.
She was afraid that such a luxury car appearing at the school gate would attract the attention and cause a commotion from her classmates.
But the driver insisted on taking her to the school gate, saying that the young master had specifically instructed him to watch her enter the campus and take photos and report to him.
Shi Runrun listened and suddenly felt a warmth in her heart.
He had said before that he would personally pick her up and drop her off at school every day. Now that he was on a business trip, he still arranged small things for her, such as going to school, and asked the driver to keep an eye on her.
Does this mean that he cares about her a little bit...
Is it possible that it's not all because she's carrying his baby...
When this thought came to her mind, Shi Runrun herself didn't react. For a long while, there was only one thought and one question in her mind.
When did I start to silently fall in love with Xiao Xue Zheng?
During her first class, she received a text message from him.
"Did you get to school safely? Go to class well, eat well at noon, and go home immediately after school."
Like the advice from a patriarch, every word touched Shi Runrun's heart.
She curled her lips and replied to his text message: "I see, you didn't rest last night, are you tired now?"
After she sent this message, she edited another one: "Xiao Xuezheng, can you tell me who Zao Zao is?"
But before sending it, she pursed her lips and deleted the message into the trash.
After doing all this, she put her phone into her pocket, feeling neither good nor bad, and began to attend class seriously.
…
Cen Huan was also discharged from the hospital and went to school today.
Because she was hospitalized some time ago, the teacher gave her an extra day for the homework.
Naturally, poor students like Cen Huan and Shi Runrun would not be able to solve these advanced math problems.
Shi Runrun lent her his answers to copy.
As Cen Huan wrote, he teased her with a smile, "Runrun, tell me the truth. You suddenly became able to do these questions. Did you sacrifice your looks and let your husband teach you?!"
Shi Runrun blushed when she heard what she said and patted her shoulder shyly.
At noon, Mrs. Lin, as usual, brought the nutritious meal for pregnant women prepared by grandma herself.
Shi Runrun took Cen Huan to the cafeteria and finished their nutritious meal.
The chicken soup stewed by grandma is still as delicious as ever. Shi Runrun thinks that if she continues to be fed like this, she will probably gain a lot of weight!
There were only one or two classes in the afternoon. After class, the driver who was supposed to pick me up had not arrived yet.
Shi Runrun and Cen Huan held hands and went to the jewelry store near the campus.
Girls love beautiful little things the most.
Shi Runrun was picking and choosing in the jewelry store and she saw a hairpin she liked. She couldn't help but put it on her hair and stood in front of the mirror to look at it.
Across the road from the school gate, a white Cayenne was parked.
The car window was rolled down, and the warm afternoon sun shone on the shoulders of the man in the driver's seat, making him look even more elegant and noble.
He just sat in the car and didn't get out, his black eyes fixed on the two girls in the jewelry store not far away.
One of them was his concubine.
