Chapter 47 Can the Oath of the Past Become Forever (26)
He stared at Shen Juncheng with eyes that were also full of anger, and there was a keen insight into everything in those eyes, "Brother Shen, I'll call you brother again, because you are indeed too kind to my sister, but what about your mother?"

Shen Juncheng was startled, as if someone had caught his weakness.

Xiaoyu lowered his voice, almost whispering to him, "Just because I don't say anything doesn't mean I don't understand anything, don't forget where I was!"

A trace of bewilderment flickered in Shen Juncheng's bloodshot eyes.

Xiaoyu stared into his eyes, and slowly said word by word: "Do you think I really don't know who is the one who instructed people to splash paint on my sister?"

Shen Juncheng's whole body was stiff, and the force squeezing Xiaoyu's body suddenly relaxed.

Xiaoyu breathed out lightly, "You can't give her anything, why do you still hold on to her?"

Shen Juncheng let go of Xiaoyu dejectedly, with a dazed expression, "I...I just want to..." But he couldn't say anything.

He looked at Xiaoyu absent-mindedly, then turned his head to look at Guo Jia, and finally left without saying anything, lost and confused.

Guo Jia had just recovered from his shock, looking at Shen Juncheng's retreating back, he suddenly felt that he was very pitiful.She turned her head and saw Xiaoyu who was staring at Shen Juncheng in the same daze as her, his eyes were also full of sympathy and many unspeakable emotions.For a moment, Guo Jia was in a daze. She felt that Xiaoyu's expression was more mature and calm than ever. She heard the pounding heartbeat in her heart. When it landed on her face, she had to abruptly turn her gaze away.

"What were you talking to him just now?" Guo Jia murmured.

"...It's nothing, I just persuaded him a few words." Xiaoyu pouted, stared at her and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled at you...I don't want Brother Shen to know about my sister..."

"Stop talking, I understand." Guo Jia smiled softly at him, and she bent down to pick up the paper bags scattered on the ground, "Come on, accompany me to choose a dress, I'm much clearer now."

Early on Saturday morning, Guo Jia locked the doors and windows, dragged the suitcase that had been packed the next night, and went straight to the train station. She and Xiaoyu made an appointment to meet at the train station square.

Xiaoyu arrived before her, empty-handed, and didn't seem to go out at all.Guo Jia looked him up and down several times before asking suspiciously, "You, are you going to attend your sister's wedding like this? Where's your luggage?"

Xiaoyu flipped his hands in the air, "Aren't all the presents with you? Except for that, I don't have anything to bring—as long as I bring enough money?"

Guo Jia glanced at him incredulously, shook his head, and entered the station side by side with him.

"Let me get it." Xiaoyu took the luggage from her considerately, "Hey, you don't have much, it's just a small box? Where's your dress?"

Last night, it was Xiaoyu who made the decision after all, and chose an orange suspender suit for her. The style is simple and elegant, which can reflect Guo Jia's cheerful and lively personality.Under Xiaoyu's lobbying, Guo Jia tried it on dubiously, and the effect was really good.

Guo Jia pouted at the suitcase, "It's all in there!"

"Huh? You just rolled it up in such a small box? That dress is made of silk!"

"What's the matter!" Guo Jiaman didn't care, "I don't necessarily want to carry it all the way to City H, do I?"

"Then you can wear it on your body!" Xiaoyu joked with a smile.

"Screw you!"

At nine in the morning, the train leaves on time.

"How long does it take to get to City H?" Guo Jia looked at the ticket and asked casually, "Did you buy the express?"

"About four hours—it should be written on the ticket, right?" Xiaoyu adjusted his sitting posture, with drooping eyelids, ready to take a nap.

After Guo Jia checked the receipt carefully, when he turned his head, he saw Xiaoyu shrunk his neck and closed his eyes. He frowned unconsciously and pushed him, "Did you make a mistake, you still sleep in the morning?"

"Last night, I rehearsed with someone very late, and I was so sleepy, don't talk to me, let me take a nap for a while."

While speaking, he had fallen into a deep sleep.

Guo Jia sighed, looked at the slowly falling buildings and trees outside the car window, and then looked back at Xiaoyu, who was sleeping soundly. The joy before departure was invisibly killed.

Xiaoyu slept until noon, and when he woke up, Guo Jia was not in his seat, and his stomach was rumbling about empty city tricks, and he remembered that he hadn't eaten breakfast.

Not long after, I saw Guo Jia walking back from the other side of the carriage carrying two boxes of lunch.

"It's really time for you to wake up, come, eat." Guo Jia put the lunch box on the small table.

Although the simple meals on the train were extremely cheap, they were full of fragrance and were enough to whet Xiaoyu's appetite. He ate to his heart's content, and the food was finished after three or two bites. He was about to yell something about being stingy in the kitchen. A chicken leg fell out of nowhere and landed on the half of his rice left. He turned his head and glanced at Guo Jia.

"I'm on a diet and I can't eat." Guo Jia said gruffly, continuing to eat his own food.

Xiaoyu was stunned for a while, then whispered: "Thank you!"

Guo Jia looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and asked slowly, "Can't you find a job with a more regular schedule? Staying up too late is not good for your health."

Xiaoyu looked at her and smiled, "Sister, not everyone likes working from nine to five like you and my sister do."

Guo Jia wiped his mouth, speechless.

After dinner, Guo Jia cleaned up the trash, went to the service desk to buy two cans of drinks and returned, and saw Xiaoyu staring out the car window in a daze.

She handed him a bottle of drink, and looked out following his gaze just now, "Is it coming soon?"

"Soon." Xiaoyu said, and couldn't help but secretly stare at Guo Jia's face for a while, "If, I mean if..."

"What?" Guo Jia looked at him puzzled.

"If I find a stable job, will you be willing to...cough," Xiaoyu said, grinning awkwardly, a little annoyed and a little thankful, because he has been thinking about this issue for a long time.

Guo Jia understood what he meant by what he hadn't finished speaking, she suddenly withdrew her gaze from staring at his face, and after a while, she shook her head and smiled: "No, if you do that, you won't be happy Yes. I don't want to force you to do something you don't like, so it's better not to make that assumption."

After hearing this, Xiaoyu was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head and smiled at Guo Jia, and nodded thoughtfully, "You are right, very right."

Guo Jia lowered his head and fiddled with the lid of the drink bottle in his palm. He couldn't tell whether he was happy or disappointed.

When they arrived at the station, the two got off the car together, and once again returned to the state of heartless chatting with each other.

Xiaoyu looked up at the blue sky of City H, "It is said that this place ranks among the top three cities in the country with good living conditions, and it is true, even the air is so fresh, come here, take a few more breaths!" He said deeply Exhale deeply, inhale, and clear the lungs of dirt.

Guo Jia laughed and pushed him, "Let's go! There's a lot of air for you outside, don't wait so impatiently!"

The two walked towards the exit along the crowded flow of people.Xiaoyu suddenly saw something, his eyes fixed, he stared at the front, and handed over the luggage on his hand to Guo Jia, "You wait for me at the exit."

As he spoke, he pushed aside the crowd without looking back, and squeezed forward.

"Ah? What are you doing? Hey! Where are you going?" Guo Jia asked his back inexplicably, but he disappeared soon.

Xiaoyu frantically shuttled back and forth among the crowd, but accidentally lost the tracking target.He stood in the center a few steps away from the exit, his eyes scanning the faces of the passing tourists like a scanner, with an anxious expression on his face.

Behind him, someone called his name, "Han Xiaoyu."

He looked back suddenly, and saw Shen Juncheng who was carrying a suitcase standing under a huge billboard with a half-smile, "Are you looking for me?"

"Brother Shen!" Xiaoyu shouted eagerly, and rushed over, "What are you doing here?"

Shen Juncheng smiled faintly, "I have business in City H, so come here to discuss business, can't you? What about you? What are you doing here? Why do we always run into each other by such a coincidence?"

"Brother Shen, I'm not in the mood to joke with you!" Xiaoyu stared at him irritably, "I beg you, can you just let my sister down? You have separated from her, and you should go home well." Acknowledging your parents, isn't it good now? Why do you still want to harass her? "

The smile on Shen Juncheng's face disappeared, and he clenched his hand tightly on the trunk, "Xiaoyu, I can't just sit and watch her marry someone else! I still love her! She loves me too! She loves me too! ’ he said through gritted teeth.

"So what?" Xiaoyu was also angry, "No matter how good you were once, it's over now! Is it easy for my sister? She has no parents since she was a child, and she just wants to live in peace, but she met You, you said you loved her, how did it turn out? She got hurt again and again! I don't want to judge your parents and your family, and I know you are sincere to her. That's why I beg you, she already has Li Zhen's child, she has no good fortune to follow you, can you, can you just let her live a peaceful life?"

"Xiaoyu!" Shen Juncheng's eyes were bloodshot, "I admit that you are right, and I have persuaded myself to pretend that I don't know anything, that she has gone far away and will not come back. But I can't !" He slammed his fist on the billboard, "I don't think about her every day, I can't let myself turn a blind eye to her, I can't do it!"

Seeing Shen Juncheng's painful expression, Xiaoyu frowned, "But even if you want to do it, you can't do anything."

"I can take her away." Shen Juncheng calmed down a little, and hope was rekindled in his eyes, "I will arrange her in a place that no one knows, and one day, when the time is right, I will... She's married." He said, suddenly trembling all over.

"When the time is right", what kind of time?He didn't dare to think about it.

"I can't give up on her, Xiaoyu." Shen Juncheng murmured, "I will convince my parents, one day, I will..."

"It's not your parents' problem now!" Xiaoyu just felt upset, "Brother Shen, my sister is getting married! She is going to marry Li Zhen! Do you understand? This is no longer a matter between you two Even if you are willing to marry her now, it is impossible! Can you be sober?"

Guo Jia walked this way all the way, and when he saw Xiaoyu standing under the billboard talking to someone, he immediately felt relieved and walked over quickly, "Xiaoyu, why do you..."

Before she finished speaking, Shen Juncheng's lingering face appeared in her vision, and she was so stunned that she even forgot to say hello.

"Brother Shen, go back. Please, is that okay?" Xiaoyu was still begging Shen Juncheng.

Shen Juncheng slowly pushed away his arm that was blocking him, and said word by word: "No matter what, I want to see her again."

He picked up his suitcase, ignored Xiaoyu, and walked towards the exit silently.

Then Guo Jia ran up to Xiaoyu, and stammered and asked Xiaoyu who was stunned, "He, why is he here?"

Xiaoyu took a deep breath and raised his chin to Guo Jia, "Let's go."

The scenery of City H is indeed as intoxicating as a masterpiece in a freehand painting, but neither of the two people sitting in the taxi has the heart to appreciate this picturesque scenery.

"Xiaoyu, you said that Shen Juncheng came to City H, do you want to tell Xiaoying?" Guo Jia hesitated, she thought for a long time, but still felt in a dilemma.

"No need." Xiaoyu replied bluntly, "Telling her won't do anything, it can only make her feel uneasy. She is pregnant with a child now, so she can't get emotional."

"But..." Guo Jia frowned, "What if Shen Juncheng goes to the hotel to make trouble tomorrow?"

"He doesn't know where the liquor store is." Xiaoyu replied absent-mindedly.

"If you don't know, what is he doing in City H? Besides, I look at him, as if he knows everything. It's strange, who told him?"

Seeing her worried look, Xiaoyu grabbed her shoulders unexpectedly and leaned hard on himself, "Don't worry about it. Anyway, I'll be here tomorrow! It's fine even if he comes. If you're polite, Let's toast to him, if he acts recklessly..." His voice sank slightly, "Then I have nothing to do with him."

Guo Jia was hugged awkwardly by him, and struggled a little, Xiaoyu noticed it, and let her go.Guo Jia cleared his throat in embarrassment, recalled the few words he just said, and reminded him as if waking up, "Hey! Don't think about fighting again!"

Xiaoyu snorted with a smile, but didn't speak.

Li Zhen and Xiaoying bought their new house in the east of City H. It is located in a very ordinary residential area. From the surrounding facilities and features, there is no characteristic of City H. It seems that any city has a corner. .However, Li Zhen is a practical person, and Xiaoying doesn't want to be extravagant, so both of them are quite satisfied with the new house, especially since it is close to the company where Li Zhen works, and the shuttle bus provided by their company passes here on time at [-] o'clock every morning.

Xiaoying has long since stopped working, and she is waiting for the baby at home. Her pregnancy reaction was very serious. She vomited whatever she ate in the first two months, and she lost a lot of weight. After the third month, her appetite improved slightly. If it weren't for the physical relationship, their wedding would have been held earlier.

As soon as Guo Jia saw Xiaoying, she smacked her lips in distress, "Oh, you were already thin, but now you have become even thinner after such a toss, almost like the mummy in 'The Mummy Returns'! When the little guy in your stomach comes out, I will I will definitely advocate justice for you and beat him up to avenge you, haha!"

Li Zhen was listening to her describe so openly, neither crying nor laughing, and went to the kitchen to work on dinner.Xiaoyu frowned and coughed vigorously, only Xiaoying didn't care at all, happily hooked Guo Jia's arm, just listened to her nonsense and giggled.

"You should eat more!" Guo Jia urged her forcefully, then suddenly leaned his head next to her ear and asked, "Why did you have it so soon?"

Xiaoying blushed, and shyly hesitated, "I didn't expect that either."

Guo Jia stared at her belly carefully, "It's been four months, why can't you see it at all! Four months..." She murmured silently, and suddenly smiled strangely at Xiaoying, "You come over."

"What are you doing?" Xiaoying didn't know why, and she knew it was not a good thing just by looking at her expression, but she still walked over with a smile.

Seeing that the two of them were talking in a ghostly way, Xiaoyu obviously disliked him being there, snorted, walked out of the room with his hands away, and went to the kitchen to watch Li Zhen cook.

Guo Jia asked Xiaoying in a low voice, "So, what happened to you and Li Zhen four months ago! Didn't you just go to County G? Are you willing to tell him?"

"I didn't tell him." Xiaoying argued with a blushing face, "He happened to go to County G and met me in the supermarket where I work."

"Li Zhen has been to County G?" Guo Jia suddenly realized, "No wonder, I have been wondering when the two of you got mixed up! But," there was a hint of cunning in her eyes, "I can't see Come out, this Li Zhen is quite scheming! Why would he go to G for no reason..."

"What are you talking about me?" Li Zhen appeared at the door of the room with a smile, interrupting the hot chat between the two of them.

"Praise you for being smart!" Guo Jia jumped up from the bed, looked Li Zhen up, down, left, and right with his hips on his hips, making his heart shudder.

"Miss Guo, I'm a good citizen and I've always behaved well. Can you stop staring at me like this?"

Guo Jia burst out laughing, pointed at Li Zhen and said to Xiaoying, "He still says he behaves himself!"

Xiaoying also smiled and stood up, "Okay, stop making fun of him."

"The husband and wife are going to follow each other so soon!"

"Let's eat." Li Zhen surrendered to Guo Jia, and walked over to help Xiaoying go out. Guo Jia's careful and attentive look made Guo Jia's teeth ache, and he was moved for Xiaoying. After wandering for so long, finally There is a harbor where we can dock.

She walked out of the room behind Xiaoying and Li Zhen, and when she looked up, she saw Xiaoyu coming out of the kitchen with a stack of chopsticks, with a homely smile on her face, as bright as the sun, and her heart suddenly felt a little bit Get up.

While eating, Guo Jia asked about the wedding situation the next day, and Li Zhen said, "Except for my parents and my sister's family, no other relatives will come over." He turned to look at Xiaoying beside him, and said with a smile: "We I want to wait for Xiaoying to give birth and then go back and make up for it.”

Xiaoyu also laughed, "Sister, look, your future in-laws are very reasonable."

"That's right!" Xiaoying said with a smile, "They were still here in the morning. After dinner, they said they wanted to go out for a stroll. I asked Li Zhen to go with them, but his mother refused to stop him. I must let him stay at home." Accompany me, and said that he is afraid of disturbing my rest, so he won't come over at night, and come back to help tomorrow morning!"

"Where do they live?" Guo Jia asked.

Li Zhen hurriedly said: "I booked a hotel for them. My house here is too small for five or six people. By the way, I have also booked your room. I will take you there in a while."

"No need, Brother Li." Xiaoyu looked at Xiaoying with a smile, "Your parents can't work hard for you, how dare we, don't kill us! Just give me the address."

Xiaoying said: "The hotel is quite close. I happened to go out for a walk after dinner, and I can take you there by the way."

After dinner, Li Zhen went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Xiaoying and Guo Jia sat in the living room and continued chatting. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and the chatterbox was endless.

Xiaoyu was idle and bored, so he went to the balcony to smoke a cigarette to relieve boredom.

"Who will bring you the children in the future?" Guo Jia asked Xiaoying, "Your mother-in-law?"

"I want to bring it myself." Xiaoying checked the baby products that Guo Jia brought her, each piece was so delicate and lovely that she couldn't put it down, "Li Zhen is not young anymore, let her help me with the baby, Not to mention Li Zhen, I am also quite worried, what if something happens?"

"Hoho, isn't Li Zhen the only son in their family? His parents acquired him so late, he must be very favored!" She stretched her neck and looked into the kitchen door, "Well, he is so precious. Son, you are really capable of serving as a servant here!"

"What!" Xiaoying knocked on her with a smile, then paused to think about it, "However, when you put it this way, it seems that his parents dote on him, and they keep putting food for him during meals! Treating him like a child, Li Zhen himself felt embarrassed. He said that when he was at home when he was a child, his mother would not let him do anything. Later, when he went out to study, he was really tortured. It took more than a year to learn to take care of himself .”

After the two settled things, Guo Jia looked at her and said sincerely, "Xiaoying, I'm so happy for you that you can be so happy."
