Chapter 289 Happiness depends on one's own efforts
Feng Laoer is an old friend!
He hasn't been back for a while, and if Cheng Xuyuan doesn't take him out for a good meal, he feels a little unfriendly.
So at Donglaishun, Cheng Xuyuan ordered four plates of mutton, which cost only two yuan per plate, and also got a bottle of good wine.
Good wine usually requires a wine ticket, but with the Friendship Store, that’s not a problem.
Cheng Xuyuan spent eight yuan to buy a bottle of Moutai, so the price of the meal directly increased to eighteen yuan.
For the staff at that time, eighteen yuan was not a small amount.
But this money is nothing to Cheng Xuyuan.
The two of them enjoyed the meal to their heart's content.
Feng Laoer still lives with his parents, so after leaving Donglaishun, he rode his bike back to the compound next to the Cultural Center in South Chengdi, while Cheng Xuyuan rode his bike back to the Overseas Chinese Apartment.
Yenching University has never been strict about students living on campus.
In addition, Cheng Xuyuan himself was not an ordinary student, so basically no one cared about the fact that Cheng Xuyuan did not live on campus.
Although the wine and hot pot made Cheng Xuyuan's body warm, the cold wind blowing on his face still felt like a knife cutting his face.
The winter in Yanjing is really cold.
Just as Cheng Xuyuan was thinking about tomorrow's affairs, he saw a few people gathered in front of him.
Judging from the situation, there seems to be some pulling and tugging, and it's a mess.
Generally speaking, Cheng Xuyuan is unwilling to pay attention to this situation.
After all, this is not a good thing.
But when he looked with the help of the light while riding on his bicycle, he saw several young men with their hats tilted on their heads, trying to reach out to grab two young girls.
Moreover, he knew these two girls.
One is Li Yufei, and the other is Li Yufei’s good friend, whose name seems to be Liang Xiaolu, and she is also Feng Laoer’s cousin.
What were they doing? How did they get entangled by such a group of bad guys who didn't look like good people?
It seems that these young people have bad intentions.
For Cheng Xuyuan, the safest thing to do now is naturally to leave.
But if that were the case, Cheng Xuyuan felt that he would probably never be able to forgive himself in his entire life.
He likes to seek benefits and avoid harm, and he doesn't care about things that do not concern him. He believes that keeping a low profile is the best strategy. This is true, but sometimes, as long as one has a conscience, he cannot avoid this situation.
You can't avoid it, you can only face it head on.
The same goes for Feng Laoer. It was supposed to be his turn to contribute, but he went home first.
In a flash, Cheng Xuyuan rushed forward on his bike.
"What are you doing surrounding my sister? Let go of your hands, or I'll take you all to the police station!" Cheng Xuyuan shouted angrily without saying a word before his car rushed to Li Yufei.
The young man in the lead looked to be in his twenties. With his hat tilted on his head, he looked a bit ruffian.
"Your sister, what do you do?"
Cheng Xuyuan snorted and said, "My name is Feng Laoer, I'm new to our Red Star Institute, and this is my cousin Liang Xiaolu. What's the matter, do you still want to piss me off?"
At this moment, Cheng Xuyuan knew very well that what he needed now was bluffing.
If it comes to fighting, this is not his advantage.
Although he practiced Tai Chi, it was only for strengthening the body.
The others are of little use.
When the leader heard the name Feng Laoer, he frowned. Although he had never heard of this name, he felt that this person seemed not easy to mess with.
What's more, this guy works at the Red Star Institute in front.
"We just want to take them to the skating rink for some fun. Since you don't want to, forget it!" As he spoke, the young man was ready to turn around and leave.
"Stop, all of you stop!" Although Cheng Xuyuan was a little nervous, he knew that at this moment, he had to hold his ground.
After scolding a few people, he came up to them and taught them a lesson without any politeness: "I have no right to interfere with the love between men and women."
"But if anyone dares to act like a hooligan here, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Tell me your names and where you live."
"I'll bring the local police to your house and give you a good lesson later."
Hearing what Cheng Xuyuan said, the young men suddenly panicked.
Although they like to wander the streets, it doesn't mean that they are completely bad people.
Cheng Xuyuan's words at this time surprised them.
After looking at each other, the leader suddenly said, "Run!"
Following these words, the four people chose to run separately.
Facing the four people running fast, Cheng Xuyuan pretended to chase them for a few steps, and then said in an exasperated voice: "You guys can run, but the monk can run away, but the temple cannot."
"I will catch you all one by one later."
However, the more he said this, the faster the people ran.
Only after those people ran away did Cheng Xuyuan breathe a sigh of relief.
Things like being a hero saving a beautiful girl are really not suitable for me.
From now on, I will never do such things again.
Li Yufei looked at Cheng Xuyuan who looked unwilling and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Liang Xiaolu smiled and said, "Thank you, cousin. If it weren't for you, this would be troublesome."
Cheng Xuyuan said: "Don't call me cousin, it sounds weird."
"I just had dinner with Feng Lao Er, why are you two here?"
Li Yufei said: "A good classmate of ours was getting married, and we went to her house to help. We were a little late for dinner, and we ran into these gangsters."
"If I had known this, I would have let my second brother take us there."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at the dim night sky, pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go, I'll take you there."
"It's late at night, it will be better if we have more people."
Li Yufei didn't know what to say about Cheng Xuyuan's kindness, but Liang Xiaolu said, "Thank you, cousin."
Cheng Xuyuan felt helpless about Liang Xiaolu who liked to play pranks.
He waved his hand after drinking some wine and said, "Okay, let's go quickly before those guys react."
Liang Xiaolu and Li Yufei didn't ride bicycles, so Cheng Xuyuan could only push the bike and walk with them.
At the beginning, I didn’t feel anything, but as I walked, the air felt a little strange.
Liang Xiaolu, who had been chattering with Cheng Xuyuan at the beginning, now became quiet.
She looked at her good friend walking quickly and sighed silently in her heart.
She knew something about Li Yufei's thoughts. Seeing her attitude towards Cheng Xuyuan, Liang Xiaolu felt that she had completely understood her.
However, she could do nothing about this kind of thing.
Just when Cheng Xuyuan thought he was going to send the two people away in silence, he heard Li Yufei suddenly say, "Cheng Xuyuan, do you really want to divorce my sister?"
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Li Yufei, I remember I told you a long time ago that your sister and I should part ways amicably."
"In fact, we are still friends, both before and now."
Cheng Xuyuan said this without feeling the slightest bit of guilt.
After all, he did nothing wrong in this divorce.
Li Yufei hesitated for a moment and said, "Although my sister didn't say it, I feel that she must be a little regretful for doing this."
"Can't you reconsider this?"
Cheng Xuyuan still said calmly: "Yufei, you should know my current situation."
"Besides, your sister and I have already made an agreement."
"Instead of dragging it out and hurting each other, it is better for us to be well and forget each other."
Li Yufei's steps couldn't help but pause. She looked at Cheng Xuyuan's calm expression under the dim light, her eyes flashing.
Just then, a car whizzed past.
The lights of the car shone on the two of them, allowing them to clearly see each other's expressions for a moment.
Cheng Xuyuan's expression was calm and composed.
Li Yufei's expression, however, seemed both sad and happy, and also a little relieved.
At this moment, her expression showed more determination.
Just when Cheng Xuyuan felt that they were almost at the alley where Li Yufei lived, Li Yufei suddenly said to Liang Xiaolu who was standing aside and listening, "Xiaolu, go to the front and wait for a moment. I have something to say to Cheng Xuyuan."
Although he felt a little disappointed, Liang Xiaolu still walked forward obediently.
A not-so-good feeling arose in Cheng Xuyuan's heart.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Li Yufei, this place is very close to your home. You and..."
Before he could finish, Li Yufei said solemnly: "Cheng Xuyuan, I told you before that Fang Yuqing is not suitable for you."
"Since you and my sister have decided to divorce, there is no need for me to hide it anymore."
“I think we are a perfect match.”
Cheng Xuyuan was helpless. He had felt before that Li Yufei seemed to treat him a little differently.
But he had been trying every possible means to avoid Li Yufei.
Now, there was no way to avoid it, so Li Yufei said these words clearly with a blushing face.
He smiled and said, "Yufei, I think it's better for us to just be ordinary friends."
"Besides, I don't think we are suitable to be together."
"Okay, this place is not far from your home. I'll leave first."
As he was talking, Cheng Xuyuan was about to get on his bicycle and leave, but at this moment, he heard Li Yufei say, "Cheng Xuyuan, you can reject me, but you can't stop me from pursuing my own happiness."
"I will start pursuing you once you and my sister are officially divorced."
"I believe I will make you understand that I am more suitable to be with you than Fang Yuqing."
Although Li Yufei's voice was not loud, her words were full of determination.
Faced with this situation, Cheng Xuyuan felt helpless and could only pedal his bicycle quickly and move forward.
Li Yufei did not stop Cheng Xuyuan from leaving.
When Liang Xiaolu, who was walking in front, ran over, he found that Li Yufei was in tears.
"What's wrong? What did Cheng Xuyuan say?" Liang Xiaolu asked with concern.
Li Yufei smiled and said, "No, I'm not sad, I'm happy."
"Ever since I found out about him and my sister, I've been thinking about how to avoid him."
"But now, I understand."
"Happiness still depends on your own efforts."
"From today on, I will pursue my own happiness."
