Chapter 235 Some Emotions Waiting to Explode
It hit the steering wheel squarely, without missing a beat.
The three of them were startled: "What are you doing!"
Tu Yao shrugged: "Here you go."
After saying that, he turned to leave.
"Hey! Tu Yao, stop right there!"
The girl in the driver's seat quickly got out of the car and called out to her, "What do you mean by this!"
Tu Yao sighed and turned around: "I just don't want to buy you pineapple buns, nor do I want to cut your steak into cubes, and I certainly don't want to buy you freshly ground coffee."
"you……"
Tu Yao's tone betrayed her disdain: "Sang Sang next door is already building a business, and Xiao Bai next door can grow button mushrooms. How come you guys still have to buy pineapple buns from someone else?"
The girl laughed angrily: "You used to practically beg us to do these things, what, now that you have a new backer you don't want to talk to us anymore?"
Tu Yao pursed her lips, her face completely at ease: "Yes."
"Anyway, Sangsang and Xiaobai are more capable than you guys, and they won't make me buy pineapple buns."
girl:? ? ?
The three of them looked at each other.
Is this still Tu Yao?
A car behind them honked its horn to urge them on. The girl glanced at it, then quickly opened the car door and sat back down.
Somewhat annoyed, she couldn't help but retort sarcastically, "I heard your big-star brother has taken you back into his family?"
"Hmph, I don't believe he's really forgiven you. He's just trying to avoid making a scene because you're out of your mind."
"Don't forget how you humiliated him when he first came to you!"
Upon hearing this, Tu Yao was stunned, opened her mouth, but suddenly couldn't say anything.
The girl scoffed: "I wonder if, when you remember everything, it will be you who doesn't want them, or them who doesn't want you."
After saying that, the car started and drove away immediately, giving Tu Yao no chance to refute.
On the steps, Tu Yao lowered her head and murmured, "...I would never abandon my brother."
She turned and walked into the hotel.
He hadn't taken two steps when he looked up and froze.
"……elder brother?"
A few meters away, Tu Chaoxi had arrived at some point and was standing quietly.
Tu Yao looked nervous, her gaze unconsciously measuring the distance and angle from him to the door.
She wasn't sure how much her brother had seen or heard.
The lobby was quiet, with only a few guests passing by from time to time.
Just as things were at a stalemate, Tu Chaoxi, seeing her guilty and barely able to contain herself, finally spoke up.
"Did you forget your room key?"
It was a normal tone, yet no emotion could be discerned from it.
Tu Yao quickly turned around and touched her pocket: "...I forgot."
Tu Chaoxi turned around. "Let's go."
Tu Yao quickly followed, staying neither too close nor too far behind him.
As she walked to the room door, Tu Chaoxi touched the handle and suddenly spoke:
"Go to the front desk and ask for an extra room key; your guy is going out tomorrow."
Tu Yao blinked and nodded: "...Oh."
After saying that, he ran away quickly.
Tu Yao ran very fast and returned in less than two minutes.
The door wasn't closed properly. Tu Yao, panting, was about to go in when a low curse suddenly came from inside the room.
"Idiot, you think you can just do whatever they tell you to do!"
Tu Yao was taken aback, and carefully pushed the door open a little more.
Tu Chaoxi was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, pacing back and forth in anger, rubbing her hair in frustration as she walked.
He muttered under his breath, "Didn't you come here to enjoy a good life?!"
"Are we just going to let others bully us like this! Buy a pineapple bun? Ha! Screw the pineapple bun!"
"...These bastards, these bastards!"
"You're an idiot too! You moron!"
He was so angry that he kicked the sofa hard!
I don't know how long I've been cursing, but I'm so tired that I half-squat down on the ground.
Tu Chaoxi raised her hand to cover her eyes, and the corners of her eyes that weren't covered were visibly turning red.
He had clearly forgotten the past, and Tu Xiaomao had long since overturned the Tu Yao of the past.
But from the moment he set foot on this land, a thorn in his heart remained, one that he could neither pull out nor remove.
He should be happy. In the past, Tu Yao was disobedient and suffered the consequences of betraying her family. The life of a wealthy family that she had so desperately pursued was not as she wished.
But what saddened him even more was that the Tu Yao of the past was disobedient, but what he saw today was Tu Xiaomao, who knew nothing and had forgotten everything, being looked down upon.
Outside the window, the sunlight slowly descended, and Tu Chaoxi covered her eyes with increasing force.
...He understood that he was actually afraid.
The girl's last words struck a chord with more than just Tu Xiaomao.
...
Outside the door, Tu Yao clutched the room key tightly and quietly slipped out.
The next morning, the dining table was unusually quiet.
Tu Yao poked at the fried egg on the plate, but didn't take a bite for a long time.
Tu Chaoxi's eyes were still red, and she frowned: "What are you making such a fuss about? Just eat properly."
Lin Yue was unaware of what had happened yesterday, but he noticed that the atmosphere was strange.
Looking at Tu Chaoxi and then at Tu Yao, he couldn't help but say, "By the way, Tu Xiaomao, I've contacted the buyer you found before. I'm going out to talk to him about the transportation line in a bit."
Tu Yao looked up blankly, "Oh..."
"Brother... I'll go with you then."
As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced at Tu Chaoxi.
Lin Yue also looked over.
At the dinner table, Tu Chaoxi remained silent. Although she seemed to be in a bad mood, she made no attempt to stop him.
Lin Yue nodded: "Okay."
Tu Yao immediately bit into the fried egg and swallowed it, then quickly drank a sip of milk and deliberately said loudly, "I...I'm full!"
Tu Chaoxi still didn't react.
Tu Yao looked dejected. Seeing Lin Yue packing his backpack, she started packing as well.
Halfway through tidying up, I thought for a moment, took out an exercise book, and slowly moved it next to Tu Chaoxi.
"...Brother, I haven't forgotten to do my homework lately either. Here's a new one, take a look."
She put the booklet on the table and said softly, "...Then I'll go with you, little brother."
Tu Chaoxi glanced at her out of the corner of her eye.
Tu Xiaomao is very clever and has an exceptionally keen sense of emotions. He may not yet know why Tu Xiaomao is unhappy, but he is already learning to comfort him.
A few seconds later, he gave a low "hmm".
Tu Yao breathed a small sigh of relief.
As soon as the brother and sister left, Tu Chaoxi threw her knife and fork onto the plate and opened her workbook.
Her handwriting was clean and neat, unlike her carefree personality; every stroke revealed a meticulous seriousness.
Tu Xiaomao hasn't stopped for over half a month, yet he still hasn't forgotten to do his homework.
Although I still got a lot of questions wrong.
Tu Chaoxi couldn't help but smile, her brows slightly relaxed, and she chuckled while pressing her reddened eyes.
After turning a few pages, there was a knock on the door.
The door opened and there was Cheng Sangsang.
"What's up?"
She looked inside and asked, "Teacher Tu, I'm looking for Tu Xiaomao. Is she here?"
"Um... my three-story house burned down, so Uncle Cheng did a thorough cleaning. He found a lot of things that Tu Xiaomao used to have. I've come to ask her if she still wants them."
"Things from before?"
Tu Chaoxi frowned: "She's not here, I'll go with you to pack."
