Chapter 263: We can’t put it off any longer
Although he had a clear conscience, Cheng Xuyuan felt uneasy at this moment.
Actually, it’s not my fault.
All of you here and I are friends.
Do you have to target me like this? Especially Li Yufei, we are just classmates, at best just ordinary friends, is it necessary to do this? Moreover, Yu Jing took the initiative to order food, isn't it a kind gesture? In Cheng Xuyuan's view, this simple girl, she was just loyally and shrewdly thinking about him, she wanted to quietly give him the most considerate and thoughtful help at this time.
However, Cheng Xuyuan would never let Fang Yuqing pay the bill.
Cheng Xuyuan glanced at Li Yufei, who looked like she was fighting with him, and chuckled, "Yumo, we will still be friends in the future."
"Being too polite will make you seem too distant!"
When Shen Yumo was talking to Li Yufei, she also felt that her sister was a little too harsh. This sister, who had been pampered since childhood, was very comfortable in terms of learning, but when it came to dealing with certain situations in life, she was a little overwhelmed! Between her and Cheng Xuyuan, she was the only one who felt sorry for Cheng Xuyuan. Cheng Xuyuan had done his best for her! Why bother to mock him in public?
However, Cheng Xuyuan's words made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Isn't it obvious that Cheng Xuyuan is firmly standing on the side of protecting Fang Yujing? Of course, there seems to be nothing wrong with Cheng Xuyuan protecting his girlfriend.
However, Shen Yumo just felt unhappy.
She glanced at Li Yufei and found that her sister looked unhappy. She then glanced at Fang Yuqing and finally suppressed her unhappiness as much as she could. She said word by word, "Yes, after we get the marriage certificate, we will be friends!"
Hearing this, Cheng Xuyuan was a little speechless.
Shen Yumo, what are you doing? I have done my best as your friend.
You don't have to be here, in front of everyone, to embarrass me! You said that we are friends after getting the certificate, which is equivalent to reminding Fang Yuqing that he and I are still husband and wife. You should wait for a while!
Just when Cheng Xuyuan was wondering whether he should eat or escape by other means, Fang Yuqing had already spoken.
She smiled and said, "Xuyuan, Sister Yumo, why are you two being so polite?"
"It's just a meal, it's nothing. It's already been decided, I think you two will definitely become friends."
It's destined that you will definitely become friends.
These words sound pleasant to the ear, but if you think about them carefully, they have a bit of sword-like meaning.
Although Fang Yuqing is usually cheerful and loves to laugh, she will never give in when it comes to her principles.
For example, now, she is telling Shen Yumo openly that you are destined to divorce, so don't bother about it anymore!
Shen Yumo could hear it, Zhang Dening could hear it, and Li Yufei could hear it too.
But I could tell that it was meaningless to continue the verbal battle! After all, it was Shen Yumo who wanted a divorce in the first place.
Ma Guangzhong and others who were sitting nearby were a little at a loss at this moment.
They all realized it, and the scene became awkward for a moment.
If there was any way, they really didn't want to stay here any longer.
For them, the greatest happiness is to finish the dinner as soon as possible.
But, we had just started the meal, how could we leave in such a hurry?
Wu Xiaoli had the least pressure, after all, she didn't know Shen Yumo and Fang Yuqing.
So she not only secretly looked at Shen Yumo, but also glanced at Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing from time to time.
Although she was not quite sure about the relationship between these three people, she felt that it would be better for her good friend Feng Xiaoxia not to get involved in this anymore.
Otherwise, there will be big trouble.
Cheng Xuyuan is really too popular! After Fang Yuqing finished speaking, Shen Yumo did not say anything, but sat down with Zhang Dening and others to start eating.
I don’t know if it was because of the two tables of people, but the Changzheng Restaurant, which was originally bustling with students going back to school, suddenly became much quieter.
Ma Guangzhong usually ate very slowly, but this time, he gobbled it up in no time.
In just seven or eight minutes, not only did he finish the wine, but he also ate most of the food in front of him.
"Teacher Cheng, I forgot one thing. Our counselor asked several of us older male students to go to his office at 8 o'clock."
Ma Guang glanced at the watch on his wrist, as if he had suddenly remembered something.
Wu Xiaoli also slapped her head and said, "Now that you mention it, I remember it too."
"Our counselor also asked us to gather tonight."
"Teacher Cheng, I'm leaving first."
The performance of both of them was really poor.
But at this moment, Cheng Xuyuan no longer had the heart to care about these things.
He immediately smiled at the two people and said, "When new students start school, there are often things like this or that."
"It was the same when I first started school. Go back quickly before you're late!"
Ma Guangzhong stood up and smiled at Fang Yuqing, then said to Shen Yumo and Wu Hongmei: "Yumo, Hongmei, I have something else to do in class, so I'll leave first."
Shen Yumo nodded and said, "Guangzhong, I will treat you guys to a meal later."
Ma Guangzhong had no intention of attending Shen Yumo's dinner invitation, but on the surface, he happily agreed.
It’s not for any other reason, but mainly because I’m afraid of not being able to leave if I agree unwillingly.
With the departure of Ma Guangzhong and Wu Xiaoli, Cheng Xuyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
He had almost finished eating, and after Ma Guangzhong and the other man left, he said to Shen Yumo and Zhang Dening, "Yumo, Dening, you guys eat first, I'll go back first."
"By the way, if the food isn't enough, feel free to ask for more, Dening."
"Just put it on my account later."
Zhang Dening looked at Cheng Xuyuan, who was full of sincerity, and said with a smile: "Your seminar on "Lush" is over, and it's time to focus on "Our College Entrance Examination" and "Desire."
"I'm telling you, nothing weird can happen this time!"
"Otherwise, neither Mr. Zou nor I will be able to explain to the new person in charge."
After hearing what Zhang Dening said, Cheng Xuyuan casually asked, "Has Teacher Li taken office?"
Zhang Dening looked at Cheng Xuyuan with a little surprise. She had just learned that Teacher Li Qingquan was going to be the head of the editorial department of "Yenching Literature and Art".
Unexpectedly, Cheng Xuyuan also knew this news.
"How do you know?" Zhang Dening asked curiously.
Cheng Xuyuan slapped his head. It seemed that his memory of his previous life was a little bit off. He only knew which month it was, but didn't know what day it was.
However, this did not bother Cheng Xuyuan. He smiled at Zhang Dening and said, "Don't worry about where I got this information from. I have my own channels anyway."
"I'm leaving now."
As he spoke, he glanced at Fang Yuqing and walked out the door.
Fang Yuqing smiled calmly and said, "Sister Dening, Sister Yumo, goodbye."
After Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing walked out of the restaurant, Li Yufei snorted and said, "Look how proud she is. If you don't know, you would think she has become Cheng Xuyuan's wife!"
Wu Hongmei was speechless when she heard what Li Yufei said.
It is a fact that Shen Yumo and Cheng Xuyuan are getting a divorce, and what happened just now, Shen Yumo hasn't said anything yet, it seems like you are the one who is most angry.
However, she was not familiar with Li Yufei, and she had just arrived in Beijing, so it was difficult for her to say anything.
Zhang Dening just sighed and said nothing.
As friends of both parties, although Zhang Dening prefers his colleague Shen Yumo, he has to admit that Cheng Xuyuan is not a Chen Shimei.
If he were Chen Shimei, that would be easy.
But the problem is, he is not.
In this situation, even if I feel a little biased, I can't say anything.
"Okay, let's eat." Shen Yumo glared at Li Yufei and said, "You are all classmates in the same department. Don't make each other unhappy because of my affairs."
"I'm just in the same department as her. Besides, who says that people in the same department have to be good friends?"
Li Yufei used chopsticks to stir the food on her plate while leisurely saying, "Is it not okay for me to dislike her?"
Shen Yumo didn't want to continue this topic. She suddenly said to Zhang Dening, "I'll go find our superiors later. We can't keep dragging it out like this."
Zhang Dening hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Just when Shen Yumo said that he couldn't keep dragging it out, Cheng Xuyuan said to Fang Yuqing, "I'll go find your uncle when I'm free in the next two days and ask him to give me a time."
"If that doesn't work, we'll think of other ways to get this over with as soon as possible!"
Fang Yuqing did not vent her anger on Cheng Xuyuan, but smiled and said, "Then I will go with you. If your uncle keeps making excuses, I won't agree."
Cheng Xuyuan said: "Neither of us can agree to this."
"Let's go. I'll take you back to the dormitory, and then I'll go back to the Overseas Chinese Apartment."
Fang Yuqing looked at Cheng Xuyuan who was pushing his bicycle, hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "Then let's go. When you go back, don't write too late. There must be a limit to staying up late!"
"The body is the capital of revolution!"
"Okay!" Cheng Xuyuan did not hesitate.
After sending Fang Yuqing back to the dormitory reluctantly, Cheng Xuyuan, who kept his word, wrote a 4,000-word article "Things about the Ming Dynasty" early the next morning and rode his bicycle to Meng Dezhi's doorstep.
Having a bicycle is convenient. When Cheng Xuyuan arrived at Meng Dezhi's house, Meng Dezhi had just returned from a morning run, holding the fried dough sticks he bought on the way.
He was very surprised to see Cheng Xuyuan, but his face was full of joy.
"You guys, you haven't come to see me for a while."
"Why, do you think I'm annoying, so you don't want to come over?"
Hearing Meng Dezhi's preemptive criticism, Cheng Xuyuan smiled and apologized: "I've been a little busy recently!"
"I went back to my hometown some time ago, and now I'm busy renovating the house."
"Look, right after school started, I didn't even go to the morning reading class, I came to see you."
Looking at the smiling Cheng Xuyuan, Meng Dezhi snorted.
He felt that Cheng Xuyuan was definitely up to no good, but Cheng Xuyuan's identity was different now. Not to mention his growing fame, his relationship with Fang Yuqing forced him to accommodate him.
"Have you had breakfast? How about coming home for dinner?" Meng Dezhi invited casually.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Okay, I'm hungry, now I have something to eat!"
As the two were talking, they arrived at Meng Dezhi's house.
Meng Dezhi's wife Mo Yunqi had already prepared breakfast and was waiting for Meng Dezhi to buy fried dough sticks to eat. When she saw Cheng Xuyuan coming over, she said enthusiastically: "Xiao Cheng, you haven't been here for a while."
"Come over with Yuqing sometime, I'll make you something delicious."
Cheng Xuyuan has always respected Mo Yunqi. After greeting her with a smile, he helped bring the millet porridge to the table.
Meng Dezhi took a sip of millet porridge and said calmly, "You never come to my temple unless you have something important to do. You blocked me at the door early this morning. You must have something important to do."
"Tell me, what's the matter."
