Chapter 4 I Didn’t Cry



After coming to this conclusion, Shi Chengyu began to avoid Lin Xuanjiao. Looking at Lin Xuanjiao's aggrieved little face, he couldn't say a harsh word. Facing Lin Xuanjiao, he was like a gourd with a sawed mouth, unable to utter a word. He only mentioned the idea of canceling the engagement to his parents.

Of course his parents did not agree, so Shi Chengyu thought about staying away from Lin Xuanjiao. This would be good for everyone in the long run. He would find someone he liked, and Lin Xuanjiao would also find someone she loved.

So he stole the household registration booklet from home and signed himself up to go to the countryside as an educated youth. He thought that life in the countryside was so hard, and Lin Xuanjiao, with her delicate personality, would definitely not want to go to the countryside. After a few years, Lin Xuanjiao would come to her senses.

But what he didn't expect was that Lin Xuanjiao actually followed him, and he didn't know why her family agreed to let her come to such a poor place in the countryside.

Here he saw Lin Xuanjiao's hands blistered from working on the farm, and saw Lin Xuanjiao faint under the scorching sun... He saw all the suffering Lin Xuanjiao endured here, but he didn't dare to go up and touch her at all. He was afraid that once he went up, the appearance he had worked so hard to maintain would be shattered.

But he treated Lin Xuanjiao like this. Every time Lin Xuanjiao saw him, she would come up to him with eager eyes and pester him regardless of his cold face. Shi Chengyu didn't know what to think of Lin Xuanjiao who was devoted to him, but he knew that he didn't hate her.

But today, when he opened the door, Lin Xuanjiao actually turned her eyes away, as if she didn't care about him at all. This was obviously the result he hoped for, but why did he feel so empty in his heart?

When Liu Yiyi heard the door open, she immediately looked towards the person who came. Seeing that it was Shi Chengyu, she immediately ran over, her voice filled with tears of grievance, "Brother Chengyu, I don't know what happened to Jiaojiao today. She hit me so hard. I'm so sad!"

Shi Chengyu looked at the swollen face running towards him. Seeing that she was about to jump into his arms, he quickly took a few steps back to avoid her attack, and then asked politely, "Excuse me, who are you?"

Hearing this question, Liu Yiyi's eyes immediately turned red. If she had the usual pretty face, such an action would arouse the protective desire of most men. But now the pretty face has turned into a pig-headed face, which makes Feng Simiao, the flower protector next to her, unable to bear to look at it.

This is not to mention Shi Chengyu, who usually didn't pay much attention to the female educated youth. Seeing that the other party didn't intend to answer, Shi Chengyu nodded to Liu Yiyi and said, "Excuse me."

Then he walked around Liu Yiyi and headed towards his bedroom. Seeing Shi Chengyu leaving without any hesitation, Liu Yiyi collapsed and yelled, "Brother Chengyu, I'm Liu Yiyi!"

When Shi Chengyu heard the name Liu Yiyi, he paused. This seemed to be Lin Xuanjiao's good friend, but since he had already decided to keep a distance from Lin Xuanjiao, how could he care about Lin Xuanjiao's affairs!

When passing by Lin Xuanjiao, Shi Chengyu glanced at her calmly. Seeing that Lin Xuanjiao didn't even look at him, he felt a little depressed, but this represented a good start. Lin Xuanjiao no longer pestered him, and everything developed as he had expected.

In the future, he will have his own family and children, and Lin Xuanjiao will find a husband who loves her and takes care of her for the rest of her life. When they each get married, maybe they can even say hello to each other.

But why does this hand hurt a little? Shi Chengyu looked at his hands and saw that his hands were clenched tightly, his knuckles were white from the force, and when he spread his fingers, he could vaguely see blood, as if he had been injured by his own nails.

It must be that his fingernails are too long, so they bleed when touched lightly. He completely forgot that he trims his nails every three days.

After opening the door, Shi Chengyu quickly closed it, leaned against the door panel, and stared into the void in a daze.

Dong Chao waved in front of Shi Chengyu and asked, "Are you okay?"

Seeing that it was someone he was familiar with, Shi Chengyu came back to his senses and smiled, "Of course I'm fine. The farm work these days isn't that heavy."

Dong Chao was still worried when he saw Shi Chengyu smile, "Then why are you crying?"

Shi Chengyu was startled by this question. Did he cry? He touched his cheek and felt a trace of moisture. He quickly wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve and explained hastily, "Maybe the wind was too strong and the dust outside got into my eyes, so I shed tears. That's why I didn't cry."

Dong Chao looked at Shi Chengyu's unreasonable arguments and didn't refute him. Fine! He could say whatever he wanted. He really couldn't understand what these two young people from Beijing were thinking.

Outside the yard, Liu Yiyi stared blankly at Shi Chengyu's receding back. She didn't come to her senses until the door was closed, and she was still staring blankly at the wooden door.

Feng Simiao felt a little sorry for Liu Yiyi. Although she looked very ugly now, she was the girl he had pursued for many years. He tried to comfort her, "Yiyi, I have some medicine in my room. Do you want to try it? It's very effective."

When she heard the word "medicine", Liu Yiyi finally realized that her face was badly beaten by Lin Xuanjiao. She originally wanted to show Shi Chengyu how vicious his fiancée was with this face, so she didn't apply the medicine.

But Shi Chengyu just walked away. Fortunately, he didn't recognize her and didn't destroy the image of her in his mind. Thinking of this, Liu Yiyi felt a little comforted and her face didn't hurt so much.

Liu Yiyi smiled lightly at Feng Simiao, her eyes gleaming with light, "Thank you, Simiao. I know you're the best to me!"

Feng Simiao's eyes wandered around, and he tried hard not to look at Liu Yiyi's swollen pig-like face. If Liu Yiyi treated him like this at other times, he would be so happy that he would almost faint, but this kind of Liu Yiyi only reminded him of the pork he hadn't eaten for a long time.

Feng Simiao swallowed hard, imagining Liu Yiyi's usual appearance, and his words became less unnatural. "You're welcome. I'll get it for you!"

Then he hurried back to the room as if someone was chasing him.

Liu Yiyi looked at Feng Simiao's anxious back and a confident smile appeared on her face. What if Lin Xuanjiao was pretty? She was still not as good as her.

Just as she raised the corners of her lips, she felt a stinging pain on her face, and the pain made Liu Yiyi gasp: Damn it, that damn Lin Xuanjiao actually dared to slap me in the face, I don’t know what’s wrong with that idiot.

She was apparently fine yesterday and even gave her meat patties to eat, but this morning when she came back from farm work, Lin Xuanjiao rushed up to her and slapped her in the face. The slap made her stunned on the spot.

Liu Yiyi gently stroked her swollen cheeks with both hands, wondering if Meng Qi and Qiao Ling were saying bad things about her behind her back again.
