Li Chengwei felt that Su Qinghu was different, as if she had been reborn. She exuded that kind of distant aura that no one could restrain.
When he saw her again, the scene in the bank suddenly came back to his mind.
After graduation, he was assigned to a better company and was assigned a mentor. The mentor happened to have a new project and took him along. Because of his outstanding performance, his salary and bonus were significantly increased thanks to his mentor's intervention.
He worked hard during working hours, and outside of work he also worked as a tutor and wrote articles for newspapers. In two months, he saved a full nine hundred yuan, which, together with what he had saved at school, made exactly one thousand yuan.
When he went to deposit the thousand dollars, he was so happy and excited that he felt like he was walking lightly.
But when we got to the bank, the excitement and happiness were gone.
Someone came in carrying an Oxford cloth and snakeskin bag, the kind that migrant workers at the train station use to carry their quilts and luggage. As soon as he entered the hall, a man dressed differently from the others, obviously a bank manager, came up to him and took him in a completely different direction.
That's money!
Neatly stacked money!
He could even see the sharp corners of the bag made by the stacks of coin corners!
He didn't dare to think about whether he could earn that money on the day he died...
The Su Qinghu in front of him was as tempting as the money, but it made him realize clearly that she did not belong to him.
"Li Chengwei!" Even though Wu Shixin was annoyed, her voice softened when she saw Li Chengwei's handsome face.
Li Chengwei was about to speak when he heard Erdan say aggrievedly, "Auntie, please don't complain to uncle. I really didn't mean to say you were ugly. You're not ugly, really."
After hearing what he said, Wu Shixin felt relieved. Seeing that he seemed to be hesitant to speak, she waited for him to continue praising her.
Erdan spoke under her gaze which was filled with expectation and even encouragement.
"You look like many people, not pretty, but not ugly either."
Wu Shixin almost couldn't catch her breath.
Su Qinghu was already shaking from trying to hold back his laughter, and was practically injured. No, doesn't this clearly mean that Wu Shixin has an ordinary face and no distinctive features?
Which woman can endure such a blow? Too cruel! Too cruel! This child’s mouth is too cruel!
The funniest thing is that she saw sincerity on Erdan’s face!
sincere……
Hahahaha, doesn't this make people even more angry?
Erdan continued, and his gaze shifted to Su Qinghu. Su Qinghu immediately tensed up, using the strength of grabbing Chen Lie's arm to control the upward curve of his mouth.
After seeing Su Qinghu, Erdan was obviously very satisfied. He didn't say anything to Su Qinghu, but looked at Wu Shixin, who was already madly wanting to rush up and beat him to death.
"Auntie, some people are good-looking, some are not. You can't compare with someone like my mom! She's so beautiful, one in a thousand, one in ten thousand, one in ten thousand? Anyway, I don't know how to put it, but please don't compare yourself with her. Comparisons are tiring, and even if we're not good-looking, we should still live well!"
Su Qinghu looked at Erdan's sincere face, listened to him saying words that were so infuriating without him realizing it, and laughed.
She was laughing so hard that she almost couldn't stand. If Chen Lie hadn't put his arm around her waist to support her, she would have squatted on the ground laughing.
Li Chengwei's eyes fell on Chen Lie's hand. He paused slightly and was about to mentally prepare himself and tell himself that he was the one who gave up this woman on his own initiative when he suddenly felt a sharp gaze falling on him.
When he looked up, he met Chen Lie's calm face.
Could it really be that he was calm? There was clearly murderous intent hidden in his eyes!
Li Chengwei couldn't stand such gaze and looked away involuntarily.
Chen Lie narrowed his eyes slightly and twitched the corners of his mouth.
This kind of man is not acceptable!
"Li Chengwei!" Wu Shixin watched Chen Lie's subtle defense of Su Qinghu, and then saw the man she loved like this, and tears fell down her face in anger. "Are you just going to watch me get bullied like this? Who am I? Who are you to me? Do you know clearly?"
Li Chengwei's throat moved and he looked at Su Qinghu. "I know I've let you down, and I want to apologize here. Please ask the two children to stop. My wife is a kind person and won't argue with others."
These words are a bit tea-like, and also carry a sense of superiority of a scumbag.
Su Qinghu narrowed his eyes and raised his chin slightly, "Kind? You won't argue with others? You must be a little blind!"
Li Chengwei: "I don't want to argue with you. I think we should still be friends. Even if we can't be friends, we are from the same place after all, so we can be considered fellow countrymen."
Su Qinghu almost burst into curses.
What the hell is this!
"I don't care what you think, I care what I think. I don't think we can be friends. Even if we come from the same place, I'm superior to you in terms of character. In fact, we're going in opposite directions, with different paths, so how can we talk about fellow countrymen?"
Li Chengwei: “…”
"You know best what you are like and what you want." Su Qinghu said calmly, without even mocking her. "I won't say it out loud, but I hope you can save some face and respect yourself a little!"
No one knew better than her why the man in front of her gave up on her and why he chose his current wife.
“People climb to higher places, and water flows to lower places. It’s human nature.”
After Su Qinghu finished speaking, Wu Shixin was upset. "What do you mean? Are you saying that he chose me instead of you, and that's his fault?"
Su Qinghu: "..." Should we still save their face?
"You know the reason why you broke up with him. I didn't tell you just now to save your face. Since you don't want to save face anymore, let's talk about it now."
Wu Shixin sneered, "You were pursued by the boss of a dance hall. Do you still remember?"
Su Qinghu: "..."
"How did this person pursue you at that time? How did you threaten him? Don't you feel anything at all? Or do you just like being pursued by such a questionable person?"
Su Qinghu glanced at Chen Lie and said nothing.
She didn't use the adjective "unruly" to describe him. If Zhang Dongsheng knew about it and took revenge on Wu Shixin, she wouldn't feel guilty about it.
"Because of you, he almost lost his job. Do you know what losing a job means? It means he's wasted all these years of college and might even become a migrant worker. He'll never be a dignified, spotless, and innocent college student again."
Su Qinghu: "Oh."
In the eyes of others, Li Chengwei actually became a victim?
"Oh? Is that all you have to say?"
Wu Shixin rushed to Su Qinghu and asked, "Don't you feel any guilt at all?"
"What else?" Su Qinghu raised his chin, half-smiling, "You think it's fate that he and you met? You fool!"
