Chapter 339: Last Year on This Day
"Xuyuan, why did you think of using the electric stove to support Xu Simou?" Fang Yuqing asked with narrowed eyes while walking on the thin ice on the Weiming Lake.
She was a day student and lived at home most of the time, especially after she started dating Cheng Xuyuan, if she didn't go home one day, she had to have a good and reasonable reason. Otherwise, her parents would not be at ease.
So she heard about Xu Simou's drama after she went to school.
Moreover, when many classmates talked about this matter, they would add a sentence, "Thanks to your Cheng Xuyuan this time, otherwise it would be a big trouble!" Fang Yuqing felt happy when she heard it.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "I was also pushed into a corner at that time!"
"Anyway, we can't let Xu Simou get into trouble, and we have to save Section Chief Yang's face, so we can only find a suitable reason for Xu Simou's actions."
"I suddenly remembered that I had an electric stove in my dormitory. At this critical moment, I can only use it!"
Listening to Cheng Xuyuan's sigh, Fang Yuqing smiled and said, "Actually, this is quite good."
"Many classmates admire your wit!"
Cheng Xuyuan said: "Forget it, I don't want to encounter such a thing again!"
"What do you think Xu Simou thinks?" Fang Yuqing rolled her eyes at Cheng Xuyuan.
"What if his girlfriend wants to?" Cheng Xuyuan said, and then winked at Fang Yuqing and gave her a wicked smile.
Fang Yuqing understood the hidden meaning of Cheng Xuyuan's words, and felt as if she was being led into a trap by the beloved man in front of her. She couldn't help but feel flustered and her pink face turned red.
The main reason why the two people were walking by the lake at this time was that it was relatively quiet here.
Cheng Xuyuan was already a celebrity in the school. After Xu Simou's incident, more people got to know Cheng Xuyuan. When he walked on campus, people often greeted him.
Although this feels good, it is not conducive to expressing my true feelings to Fang Yuqing!
When the thin ice on the lake had not yet melted, there were fewer people on the lakeside. The two of them walked by the lake, feeling very comfortable.
Just when the two were talking excitedly, they heard someone say, "Cheng Xuyuan."
Cheng Xuyuan turned his head and saw Zhu Guangqian, wearing a blue suit, jogging towards him.
I immediately smiled and greeted, "Hello, Professor Zhu!"
"You also want to wish me a happy old age?" Zhu Guangqian smiled and said, "No need, I am very happy in my old age."
After hearing this joke, Cheng Xuyuan realized that the witty remarks he made in class had actually reached the ears of the old professor.
He smiled and said, "I was just joking with my classmates."
Zhu Guangqian did not dwell on this question, but said calmly: "You are just a little clever, but not wise enough."
"Also, focus more on studying in the future."
"Don't make any mess."
As he spoke, the old man slowly ran away.
Fang Yuqing looked at Zhu Guangqian who was leaving, and suddenly lowered her head and said, "Professor Zhu, are you insinuating me?"
"How is that possible? He thinks that I handled the Xu Simou matter well. He is praising me in various ways and reminding me to stay away from such things!" Cheng Xuyuan said with a smile, holding Fang Yuqing's hand.
The two walked by the lake for a while, and Cheng Xuyuan said, "When I returned to Yanjing this time, my father told me to go to the Shen family to pay New Year's greetings in the next two days."
"My dad meant that no matter what, the Shen family was still good to me. I came to Yanjing with the help of the Shen family, so I should visit them during the New Year."
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan who looked calm, Fang Yuqing's expression changed, and she smiled and said, "Okay, when are you going to go?"
"I don't have any classes tonight, so I plan to go there after dinner."
Fang Yuqing said: "Then go ahead. Even though you and Shen Yumo are getting divorced, it doesn't mean that you will never see each other again after the divorce."
"I think you should go there, too."
Looking at the sensible Fang Yuqing, Cheng Xuyuan couldn't help but hug her gently and said, "Thank you for understanding me!"
"I don't understand, I just think your father is right." Fang Yuqing said calmly: "Of course, you are not allowed to rekindle your old relationship with her!"
Just when the two were chatting happily, Lan Beijia and Jin Yuanying came towards them.
Lan Beijia smiled and said, "Xuyuan, you promised to treat us to a meal. When is the meal?"
"You can't just use us and then abandon us."
Seeing Lan Beijia's smiling face, Cheng Xuyuan said, "Except tonight, any time is fine."
"How's the Long March Hotel?"
Jin Yuanying came to Fang Yuqing and said with a smile: "Not very good."
"I'm telling you, we're going to give you a good meal this time."
Fang Yuqing listened to the conversation between the two and couldn't help but ask, "If you want to find someone to treat you, you should go to Xu Simou. Why are you looking for Cheng Xuyuan?"
"It's not Xuyuan's business."
Hearing this, Jin Yuanying suddenly said, "If the protagonists of this matter were you and Cheng Xuyuan, do you think Section Chief Yang and the others would dare to block the door?"
Hearing this, Fang Yuqing was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red.
"Yuanying, what nonsense are you talking about? We..." Fang Yuqing said halfway and really couldn't continue.
Lan Beijia didn't seem to notice this. She put her hands behind her back, glanced at Fang Yuqing, and then said leisurely, "I think he will definitely take it easy."
"At least report it first."
"I'm afraid the more likely possibility is that I will pretend to be blind and let the two of you develop freely!"
After listening to what the two people said, Cheng Xuyuan knew that he could not go on any longer, otherwise, who knows what these two people would say!
He immediately said, "Yuqing, you go to class first. I'm going to do something."
While talking, he left quickly.
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan who was running away in a panic, Jin Yuanying said to Fang Yuqing, "Cheng Xuyuan ran away so quickly, is there really something fishy going on between you two?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who has anything to do with him?"
"If you want, you can have sex with him!" Fang Yuqing's face turned a little red.
Jin Yuanying looked at Fang Yuqing with a smile and said, "I would like to have some fun with him, but I'm afraid you don't want to!"
After hearing this, Fang Yuqing didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Okay, stop teasing Yuqing!" Lan Beijia said, "Also, be careful in the future. We can say whatever we want, but don't let others hear it."
Facing the serious-looking Lan Beijia, Jin Yuanying quickly said, "I know, I was just joking."
Fang Yuqing glared at Jin Yuanying and said, "You can't even joke about it."
Looking at Fang Yuqing's expression, Lan Beijia and the other person laughed. The three of them chatted and laughed, then walked away.
As night fell, Cheng Xuyuan once again arrived at the gate of Shen Yumo's family compound.
From the outside, there weren't many changes here from last year. Cheng Xuyuan arrived at the gate of the Shen family with ease.
I knocked on the door twice and someone asked, "Who is it?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Brother Yulin, I am Cheng Xuyuan."
Hearing this, Shen Yulin, who was just about to open the door, was stunned for a moment.
Just now, when they were having dinner at home, Li Yufei was still talking excitedly about what happened at school, and how Cheng Xuyuan had performed a miraculous act and solved the problem.
But I didn't expect that Cheng Xuyuan would come.
Could this be the legendary "Speak of Cao Cao, will Cao Cao come?" In a flash, his eyes turned towards the living room. After all, Cheng Xuyuan's voice was not low, and his family members could hear it.
Shen Yunliang nodded slightly.
That means opening the door.
Shen Yulin hurriedly complied with this decision. He quickly opened the door and saw Cheng Xuyuan standing at the door with two bottles of wine.
"Xuyuan, it's so cold, why are you here?" Shen Yulin said with a smile, "Come in and sit down."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "During the Chinese New Year, I was in my hometown and couldn't come over. Now I'm back, so I hurried over to wish my uncle and aunt a happy new year."
Li Yufei was sitting nearby watching TV. At this moment, she couldn't help but ask, "Do you also want to wish my dad a happy old age and happiness?"
Hearing this question, Cheng Xuyuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Li Yufei also knew about his joke.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Xueling tapped Li Yufei's forehead.
"Mom, this is what Cheng Xuyuan told his classmates during class today. He wished them a happy old age." Li Yufei said, "If you don't believe me, ask Cheng Xuyuan!"
Cheng Xuyuan said helplessly: "I haven't seen my classmates for a long time. I was just joking."
Shen Yunliang smiled and said, "Xuyuan's joke is very sophisticated. The more you think about it, the funnier it gets."
Just at this moment, Shen Yumo, who was wearing a light pink sweater, handed Cheng Xuyuan a cup of tea.
After thanking him, Cheng Xuyuan sat down opposite Shen Yunliang.
Both sides were very polite, saying some New Year greetings, and the atmosphere was harmonious. But in this harmony, there was a sense of alienation that everyone could feel.
This is a feeling that cannot be seen or touched, but it is real.
After chatting and laughing for more than ten minutes, Shen Yunliang said, "Xuyuan, the short story award ceremony should be in March or April."
"I heard that many famous people will participate."
"As for you, it would be better for you to remain a little humble at that time."
"After all, being modest never hurts."
Cheng Xuyuan knew that Shen Yunliang said this for his own good.
After all, no matter what time it is, being modest will never hurt, so he smiled and said, "Thank you, uncle. I know you are doing this for my own good. I will remember that!"
Shen Yunliang looked at Cheng Xuyuan who looked serious and felt that he really heard what he said.
For a moment, I felt mixed emotions.
The more I see of this young man, the more I like him both in terms of his knowledge and his character.
He and Yu Mo were a perfect match, but unfortunately, they ended up getting divorced.
The more I think about this, the more I regret it.
He couldn't help but think of what he heard at a party two days ago. With the changes in marriage from above, divorce will probably become more normal in the future.
The obstacles to Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo's divorce will also slowly be removed.
If not this year, then next year? "Uncle, it's getting late. You should go to bed early. I'll take my leave now." Cheng Xuyuan glanced at the time and said goodbye very politely.
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan who had stood up, Shen Yumo, who had been silent the whole time, said, "Then I'll go and see you off."
