Chapter 335 Xue Ming Yu Xiao Yuan Chapter 2
Xiao Yuan tried not to think about Xue Mingyu, tried not to think about his real purpose of coming to New York, and she was unwilling to pry into Xue Mingyu's heart.
After so many years, she was so tired, she was tired of playing the game of chasing, she didn't have the courage to love and hate when she was young, she was no longer that kind of girl.
The next week, they didn't meet again. Xiao Yuan originally wanted to meet Moore, but it didn't take shape in the end. The main reason was that she didn't want to have too many entanglements with Xue Mingyu.
For a week, she didn't go on a blind date, because she had already told Xiao Dingshan that she and Pete got along well, and she would continue to date.
Xiao Dingshan is very satisfied with Xiao Yuan's attitude, as long as she is obedient and obedient, as long as the Xiao family can get through the difficulties, he will definitely not blame her.
but.
Before she went upstairs, Xiao Dingshan reminded her: "You did a good job this time, but the ugly words are up front. If something goes wrong later, I will teach you a lesson with profit. You know, if you marry He Yankai, The Xiao family will not have these problems."
He's and Sicheng, these two high-ranking enterprises in Tan City and even in the whole country, were pushed away lightly by Xiao Yuan.
She gave up such a huge empire, and in the end she must have asked for a blind date.
Xiao Yuanen said, and went upstairs calmly.
During the week, she had spoken occasionally on the phone with Pete, who had gone to Los Angeles for work and would be back at the weekend, perhaps to meet her.
Xiao Yuan has already decided that the sooner they meet to talk about marriage, the better.
Xue Mingyu still stays here. During the day, he will handle some work in the study, hold remote video conferences, and then go to parks, bookstores and other places to sit. The day is very leisurely.
He Yankai's call came on Friday night. Xue Mingyu came out of the shower and saw the phone vibrating. He wiped his hair and saw the caller ID. He answered the call blankly, but his tone was very relaxed: "I I thought it was Jiaojiao who called me."
The other end laughed softly: "You think you have too many things to do, so you can stay there okay? Jiaojiao went upstairs, and told me to call you first."
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Xue Mingyu's lips: "It's not bad, nothing special."
"Then you should pick a time to come back. You can't keep letting Tang Mo watch over Sheng Yu's affairs. He's been very busy recently."
He Yankai watched Mu Jiao come down the stairs, with a pile of clothes in his arms, frowned, and got up to meet him.
Xue Mingyu listened to his scolding carefully on the phone: "You are dishonest, when you can't accept this clothes, give it to me."
I also heard Mu Jiao muttering in a low voice: "I will donate it tomorrow, so I will stack it up today. Why are you so fierce?"
Xue Mingyu's expression was soft, and the corners of his lips curled slightly. After a while, Mu Jiao answered the phone: "Mingyu, tell me the truth, why did you go to New York so suddenly this time?"
She was always too smart, so straightforward, Xue Mingyu thought of Xiao Yuan holding his hand and muttering on the bed in the hotel that night, and said after a moment of silence: "I haven't come back this year to visit relatives, Just right."
"What do you mean just right? It just so happens that Xiao Yuan is going back. Have you chased her?"
Mu Jiao doesn't know Xue Mingyu the best. Before Xue Mingyu met her, she didn't know about many things that she experienced, but now she knows him best.
Chasing her, chasing Xiao Yuan?
It sounds a bit far-fetched.
Some time ago, Xiao Yuan had officially parted ways with him, and what she said was harsh and decisive, and there was no room for maneuver.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Mu Jiao understood, and sighed lightly: "You hurt him so deeply, it might be too late to try harder now, Mingyu."
After saying a few more words, he hung up the phone.
Suddenly feeling suffocated, he put down the towel, walked to the window and opened it, fresh air suddenly entered his body.
It was very similar to Xiao Yuan's smell, a bit cold and impatient.
In Xue Mingyu's impression, Xiao Yuan has always been that little girl who likes to eat lollipops or chewing gum on weekdays, anyway she wants to eat something in her mouth.
She looks good when she's smiling, and she's also pretty when she's not smiling.
When I saw her for the first time, I fell in love with her, and I didn't care about any fiancée, so I just did something with this girl.
Xiao Yuan liked him, he could tell at a glance, he was quite fond of laughing at that time, he was so handsome, and he was an Asian, so he easily became the focus of the crowd.
They were in the cramped space, Xue Mingyu pressed her body, and said slowly: "Do you know who I am?"
At that time, she was really ignorant, she smiled so brightly, hooked his neck and said slyly and firmly: "You are Xue, you are about to get married, but you like me."
A gust of cool wind blows in, and the picture disappears in vain. Xue Mingyu lowers his expression and closes the window. The room is quiet.
On Sunday, Xiao Yuan and Xiao's mother went shopping, because Xiao Meng was alone in the country, Xiao's mother was always worried and wanted to buy something for her, afraid that Xiao Meng would not be willing to spend money.
She decided to stay in China and live in Xiao Yuan's original apartment. She was really frugal and tried not to spend the family's money.
"Your sister wasn't that frugal before, so I don't know what's wrong when I return to China this time."
Xiao's mother was picking up things while chatting with Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan responded perfunctorily, picked up a man's cuff and looked at it twice.
Seeing that she was silent, Xiao's mother was about to talk about her when she saw her looking at the cufflinks and asked, "How are you and Pete?"
Xiao Yuan raised her eyebrows: "He invited me to dinner tonight, and I'm going to give this to him. What do you think?"
Mother Xiao's expression softened: "It's good that you can read it, your father is that kind of person, don't blame him, you are old too, marriage is a very correct choice."
Xiao Yuan didn't say anything, but ordered people to wrap up the cufflinks, and they picked out two more dresses to check out and leave.
On the way back, Xiao's mother saw that she was not in a good mood, and wanted to persuade her that the incident with Xue Mingyu earlier caused no one in the family to know.
Xiao Yuan smiled: "Mom, just let me go. I'm obedient now. I'm back. What are you worried about? I'm a living person by your side. Who else can you ask to run away? Yes, don't worry about Mengmeng, she doesn't want to stay in New York, since she was a child, don't force her."
Xiao's mother was stunned for a moment, and understood what she meant. Back then, she forced Xiao Yuan to give up this, to give up that, and to grow up to be like this now. Would Xiao Meng still force her?
When the car arrived home, both of them were silent, and the servant took the bag.
"Ma'am, there are guests at home, sir said that dinner will be eaten at home, please order the menu."
Several people walked towards the yard, Mother Xiao nodded, the servant opened the door, and they entered one after the other.
The sound of conversation came from the living room, Xiao's mother and Xiao Yuan both put on formulaic smiles.
But walking to the living room, seeing that familiar figure from behind, Xiao Yuan's smile stiffened at the corner of her mouth.
Xiao Dingshan pointed at the man naturally: "Mr. Xue has been here for a while."
Xue Mingyu got up slowly, straightened his cuffs, and then stretched out his hand: "Hello, Mrs. Xiao."
Mother Xiao was also shocked, she still vaguely remembered his appearance: "You are, are you Xue Mingyu?"
Xue Mingyu nodded lightly: "It's been a while since I came to New York, so I came to see you."
He has always been polite and a gentleman. He never glanced at Xiao Yuan when he entered the door. He was so reserved, or in other words, he didn't want to look at him at all.
Xiao Yuan put away her surprised look, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, I'll go upstairs, I won't eat at home tonight, Pete invited me."
Hearing this, Xue Mingyu put his hands in his pockets, with a faint smile still on the corners of his mouth, and he didn't look at her from the beginning to the end.
Xiao Dingshan was quite satisfied with his performance, and told him to sit down and talk, while Xiao's mother went to prepare dinner.
"My daughter has always been ignorant of etiquette, and she has never learned it well since she was a child."
"Where, no."
Xiao Dingshan glanced at him, with a little coldness in his eyes: "Mr. Xue suddenly came to discuss cooperation with me. I was shocked. What is your plan for cooperating with me?"
The Xiao family is very straightforward, and Xiao Yuan probably resembles him.
"Mr. Xiao, just pay off the debt."
He didn't want to say this before he came here. He had thought of a bunch of reasons for himself, and one of them was suitable, but he didn't want to say it so hard when he saw Xiao Yuan just now.
Blame the mother-in-law.
Xiao Dingshan's face turned cold: "Repay the debt?" He changed the subject, and said directly: "I know you came to invest and cooperate with me, but you came for Xiao Yuan. I'm usually rigid. You didn't do this. It can be solved. Although I value profit very much, your petty profit is not worth my giving Xiao Yuan to you. I still won’t agree to your business. Since I’m cooperating with me, I’ll give you some shares. .”
Xiao Dingshan spoke clearly and clearly. Xiao Yuan, who was hiding at the corner of the second floor, heard it clearly, and her heart was full of turmoil.
As for Xue Mingyu, he was always so quiet, so quiet that it made people feel terrible.
There was no expression on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After a long time, he said, "How much can Pete help her?"
After speaking, a book suddenly rolled down from the stairs, it was thick and hit the ground with a loud sound, both of them followed the sound and Xiao Yuan ran out in a hurry.
"Sorry, I lost the book."
She ran down, and just as she bent over, there was an extra hand in front of her eyes. She picked up the book, patted the dust, and handed it to her: "Hold it more carefully next time."
Xiao Yuan twitched the corners of her mouth, pulled the book over, hugged her in her arms, turned to Xiao Dingshan and said, "I won't be at home for dinner, Pete invited me, and I will talk to him about marriage."
Suddenly say this?
Xiao Dingshan looked at Xue Mingyu meaningfully, and raised his chin.
Xiao Yuan turned back and went upstairs, Xue Mingyu stood there, adding a bit of embarrassment, narrowing her eyes slightly, she was quite angry.
Not long after, Mother Xiao said it was time to eat, they moved over, and Xiao Yuan also came down from upstairs, at this stall, Xue Mingyu suddenly leaned over: "Mr. .”
Xiao Dingshan left him a few words symbolically, and then said to Xiao Yuan: "You send him off."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yuan took a look at Xue Mingyu and said quietly, "I just happened to go to the appointment."
The two left one after the other, passed through the courtyard, and neither of them spoke. When they reached the gate, Xiao Yuan stood still, as if waiting for something.
And he had already gone to get the car and drove to her side.
Xiao Yuan glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, thinking that he would drive away, but at this moment Pete's phone call came, she picked up her smile and said, "If it's not convenient for you to pick me up, I can also take a taxi."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you for 10 minutes, later..." Seeing that the words have not been spoken, the phone has fallen into Xue Mingyu's hands neatly, and he said in a deep cello-like voice: "She can't date you Don't call her in the future."
Xiao Yuan didn't know what was wrong with her, she was thinking at this moment, his mother speaks English so well.
In a daze for a moment, Xue Mingyu had already hung up the phone, stuffed it into her hand, and took the bag from her hand away.
I opened it and glanced at it.
It's a famous brand, and he usually wears their clothes.
Xiao Yuan came back to her senses, and frowned fiercely: "What are you doing, you are so ridiculous, so ridiculous, do you know that?"
"I said, if you want to date someone, you need to find someone richer than me."
"You don't care if I look for rich or poor people, you are sick, Xue Mingyu! I am thirty, I want to get married, I want to have children, I am not you, I have a son as lovely as Moore, I am not old You are young, you are delaying me like this! It has been delayed for more than ten years, so don't delay it any longer!"
She was really angry, since they met in that restaurant, she lived in anxiety every day, he was too close to her.
She was afraid that Xiao Dingshan would find trouble with him if he knew they had a relationship, but he wanted to come to her side and try to break into her life.
He definitely let the door squeeze with his head.
As if the person who rejected her was not Xue Mingyu, he might need to see a doctor, or go back to China immediately.
Xiao Yuan's eyes were red, and she angrily grabbed the bag, it wasn't for him, why should he take it, but Xue Mingyu made it clear that she didn't want to give it to her, she pulled it back, and she rushed over.
Falling into his arms, Xue Mingyu didn't hug her, but lowered her voice and said, "I'm 35, am I pretty old too?"
Xiao Yuan's eyes flashed, and something seemed to cross her heart, hooking her sorely, and she pushed him away suddenly.
Staggering back two steps, she looked at him so hard.
As for him, he seemed to hold back his emotions, walked over unhurriedly, then grabbed her hand, turned around and opened the car door, and sent her in.
Until the car drove away, Xiao Yuan was numb.
There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart, and no greater sorrow than an immortal heart.
She has worked hard for a long time, so hard, from the beginning to the present, for 12 years, who can have a second 12 years of youth.
He fastened her seat belt, and he drove out smoothly, not forgetting to look in the rearview mirror, standing at the door looking at their mother Xiao.
For four or 10 minutes before arriving at his house, none of them spoke, and there was no music playing in the car. It was eerily quiet.
Seeing him change lanes, cross a quiet alley, and come to a residential area, she knew where he was going, and the phone started beeping frantically, and she knew it was Pete or Xiao Dingshan's call.
She felt like she was going crazy.
Depressed, low hoarse: "I'm very tired."
The car was running at full speed in vain, Xue Mingyu frowned almost imperceptibly, the next second, her big hand held hers, her hand was cold, she clasped her tightly, wrapped by him, she didn't feel warm at all.
Her chest was full of dissatisfaction, all kinds of love and hatred, and she threw his hand away angrily, and shouted: "Have you played enough! I really don't know what you are thinking! I said I was tired, I I don’t need any love, I need a family, I want to get married and have a baby, you can’t give it to me, stop! I tell you to stop!”
She was very excited, her emotions couldn't be stretched at this moment, she couldn't bear it at all, obviously she couldn't bear it when she saw him for the first time, and she just endured it for so long.
She is in pain.
But he didn't let go and continued to drive. She struggled crazily and moved the steering wheel vigorously to break away his hand.
Xue Mingyu's face was gloomy, and it was a bit difficult to control her with one hand, but it was already a delusion for him to stop at this time.
Xiao Yuan never gave him that chance at all, she struggled desperately and resisted vigorously.
When the car finally got out of control and drove desperately towards the guardrail, he stepped on the brakes to the bottom, turned around and embraced Xiao Yuan in his arms neatly.
With two bang bang bangs, the car crashed into the guardrail and finally stopped steadily.
The airbag popped out to protect them. He frowned, let go of the person in his arms, and asked her above her head, "Did you get hurt anywhere?"
Xiao Yuan lowered her head, and his hand had already dropped naturally, and she could see it from the corner of her eye. The arm was scratched and bleeding a little, which was ugly.
Eye sockets tightened, Xiao Yuan bit her lower lip tightly, desperately trying not to cry.
He couldn't see her trembling shoulders, swallowed a dragon, opened the door and got out of the car, walked to the co-pilot's side, unbuckled her seat belt, and pulled her out.
Fortunately, it was the guardrail at the door of my own house, otherwise it would take some time. The weather is already bad at this time, and there are thunder and lightning.
Holding his hand, she didn't look up, holding back her emotions, and came to his house one step at a time.
He placed her on the sofa, and he went to the refrigerator, took out the grapefruit tea, scooped it into a cup, rinsed it with warm water, and brought it back to her eyes.
Xiao Yuan stared at the grapefruit tea and took a deep breath: "Where is the medicine box?"
Xue Mingyu twitched his brows, his expression slightly relaxed.
Following Xue Mingyu's instructions, she took the medicine box from the cabinet, sat next to him, and pulled his hand over, leaving a long scratch.
Even though there was little bloodshed, it was shocking.
Thinking about everything today, when Xiao Yuan applied the medicine, she was not gentle at all, but very hard, pressing the medicine one by one, if it was Lu Nanyi, she would have beaten her a long time ago.
But he won't.
He has always been calm, even if this arm is broken, he doesn't seem to frown.
It's annoying to look at.
Xiao Yuan snorted softly, then increased her strength, feeling angry.
Xue Mingyu was so much taller than her, and she lowered her head to apply the medicine. He only needed to raise his other arm to completely embrace her in his arms, but he didn't do that, he just put his hand on the sofa On his back, he looked at her with a smile, indulgently: "Did you relieve your anger?"
Exhausted?
Take it easy, it's just annoying.
Xiao Yuan threw away the cotton swab: "I don't want to talk to you."
After that, she got up and walked towards the door, and Xue Mingyu said loudly to keep her: "It's raining outside, and it's getting dark, so you can stay here. There is a guest room at the corner of the second floor. The sheets and quilts are all new. Inside the locker, change it yourself."
Lying on the bed in their guest room, Xiao Yuan felt that she was quite cheap. She had loved a man, and she had listened to him since she was a child, worshiped him, admired him, looked up to him, and followed him.
Even if she said hard-heartedly that she would never get in touch with each other, but as soon as he appeared, she, Xiao Yuan, showed her true colors. He said to stay overnight, but she stayed, and when his arm was scratched, she applied medicine for him.
Even when he asked Xiao Dingshan how much Pete could help her, she deliberately dropped the book to help him out. She knew Xiao Dingshan would definitely say a number that he couldn't match.
Even with Xue Mingyu's worth, she didn't have the courage to think that he would do everything to get her.
In front of Xue Mingyu, she always thinks of herself very low, very low.
Thinking of this, she felt very annoyed, and angrily pulled the quilt up and covered her face.
Outside the door, Xue Mingyu was standing with a piece of cake, holding on to the doorknob, and was about to push it away, when she heard a rustling movement inside her.
Thinking about it, she was also irritable.
Glancing at the cake, he pursed the corner of his lower lip, turned and went back to the kitchen.
Xiao Yuan fell asleep very fast, maybe she was tired, and after a while, she fell into a deep sleep, but Xue Mingyu really couldn't fall asleep.
He was sitting on the sofa on the first floor, and the lights in the room were not turned on. Occasionally, the lightning outside would illuminate the room, otherwise the room would be pitch black.
Hei couldn't even notice it easily when he was sitting there.
Maybe he is still too slow, 12 years ago, he was up and down, doing things happily, but after 12 years, he is much slower.
As time passed, he had a lot to think about.
When there was movement upstairs, he looked sideways, and after a while, there was no sound again.
He sat back down and took a sip of water.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Yuan had a nightmare. All the nightmares she had in her life could not be true. Xiao Dingshan threatened her and forced her to leave Xue Mingyu, and Xue Mingyu also said indifferently that he was going to marry his fiancée because she was pregnant with her own child.
Their faces appeared alternately in front of her, one ferocious and the other indifferent.
Her heart was beating violently, and finally she couldn't take it anymore, and sat up.
The heavy rain outside the window made her sink heavily, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, raised her hand to touch her cheek, tears were streaming down her face.
After sitting for a while, she didn't relieve her emotions. She felt oppressed and uncomfortable. She lifted the quilt and got out of bed quickly. After dressing up, she went downstairs barefoot.
Hearing the voice, Xue Mingyu turned his head.
But she had something on her mind, and she was so dark, she didn't pay attention at all, she walked lightly step by step, when she reached the door, she bent over to put on her shoes, then turned her head and glanced upstairs again.
Xue Mingyu watched her withdraw her gaze, opened the door and left.
With a sharp tug in his heart, he immediately stood up.
She didn't pay attention to it, and she didn't hear it. It was raining heavily outside, and there were continuous thunder and lightning. She didn't seem to be afraid, and she couldn't even hear the sound.
So uncomfortable.
If he stayed any longer, he might suffocate.
Her body was soon wet, and before she could walk out of the yard, her hand was grabbed by someone.
Xiao Yuan shrank her body, turned her head abruptly, did not see who was coming, and screamed vigorously, Xue Mingyu did not hold an umbrella, and was already soaked through at this time.
Pulling hard, he pulled her into his arms, protected her head, and whispered: "It's so late, and it's raining again, what are you doing out here?"
(End of this chapter)
Xiao Yuan tried not to think about Xue Mingyu, tried not to think about his real purpose of coming to New York, and she was unwilling to pry into Xue Mingyu's heart.
After so many years, she was so tired, she was tired of playing the game of chasing, she didn't have the courage to love and hate when she was young, she was no longer that kind of girl.
The next week, they didn't meet again. Xiao Yuan originally wanted to meet Moore, but it didn't take shape in the end. The main reason was that she didn't want to have too many entanglements with Xue Mingyu.

During the week, she had spoken occasionally on the phone with Pete, who had gone to Los Angeles for work and would be back at the weekend, perhaps to meet her.

Xue Mingyu still stays here. During the day, he will handle some work in the study, hold remote video conferences, and then go to parks, bookstores and other places to sit. The day is very leisurely.
He Yankai's call came on Friday night. Xue Mingyu came out of the shower and saw the phone vibrating. He wiped his hair and saw the caller ID. He answered the call blankly, but his tone was very relaxed: "I I thought it was Jiaojiao who called me."
The other end laughed softly: "You think you have too many things to do, so you can stay there okay? Jiaojiao went upstairs, and told me to call you first."
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Xue Mingyu's lips: "It's not bad, nothing special."
"Then you should pick a time to come back. You can't keep letting Tang Mo watch over Sheng Yu's affairs. He's been very busy recently."
He Yankai watched Mu Jiao come down the stairs, with a pile of clothes in his arms, frowned, and got up to meet him.
Xue Mingyu listened to his scolding carefully on the phone: "You are dishonest, when you can't accept this clothes, give it to me."
I also heard Mu Jiao muttering in a low voice: "I will donate it tomorrow, so I will stack it up today. Why are you so fierce?"

Seeing that he didn't speak, Mu Jiao understood, and sighed lightly: "You hurt him so deeply, it might be too late to try harder now, Mingyu."
After saying a few more words, he hung up the phone.
Suddenly feeling suffocated, he put down the towel, walked to the window and opened it, fresh air suddenly entered his body.
It was very similar to Xiao Yuan's smell, a bit cold and impatient.

At that time, she was really ignorant, she smiled so brightly, hooked his neck and said slyly and firmly: "You are Xue, you are about to get married, but you like me."
A gust of cool wind blows in, and the picture disappears in vain. Xue Mingyu lowers his expression and closes the window. The room is quiet.
On Sunday, Xiao Yuan and Xiao's mother went shopping, because Xiao Meng was alone in the country, Xiao's mother was always worried and wanted to buy something for her, afraid that Xiao Meng would not be willing to spend money.

Xiao Yuan smiled: "Mom, just let me go. I'm obedient now. I'm back. What are you worried about? I'm a living person by your side. Who else can you ask to run away? Yes, don't worry about Mengmeng, she doesn't want to stay in New York, since she was a child, don't force her."
Xiao's mother was stunned for a moment, and understood what she meant. Back then, she forced Xiao Yuan to give up this, to give up that, and to grow up to be like this now. Would Xiao Meng still force her?

Xue Mingyu got up slowly, straightened his cuffs, and then stretched out his hand: "Hello, Mrs. Xiao."
Mother Xiao was also shocked, she still vaguely remembered his appearance: "You are, are you Xue Mingyu?"
Xue Mingyu nodded lightly: "It's been a while since I came to New York, so I came to see you."

You didn't do this. It can be solved. Although I value profit very much, your petty profit is not worth my giving Xiao Yuan to you. I still won’t agree to your business. Since I’m cooperating with me, I’ll give you some shares. .”
Xiao Dingshan spoke clearly and clearly. Xiao Yuan, who was hiding at the corner of the second floor, heard it clearly, and her heart was full of turmoil.
As for Xue Mingyu, he was always so quiet, so quiet that it made people feel terrible.
There was no expression on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After a long time, he said, "How much can Pete help her?"
After speaking, a book suddenly rolled down from the stairs, it was thick and hit the ground with a loud sound, both of them followed the sound and Xiao Yuan ran out in a hurry.
"Sorry, I lost the book."
She ran down, and just as she bent over, there was an extra hand in front of her eyes. She picked up the book, patted the dust, and handed it to her: "Hold it more carefully next time."
Xiao Yuan twitched the corners of her mouth, pulled the book over, hugged her in her arms, turned to Xiao Dingshan and said, "I won't be at home for dinner, Pete invited me, and I will talk to him about marriage."
Suddenly say this?
Xiao Dingshan looked at Xue Mingyu meaningfully, and raised his chin.
Xiao Yuan turned back and went upstairs, Xue Mingyu stood there, adding a bit of embarrassment, narrowing her eyes slightly, she was quite angry.
Not long after, Mother Xiao said it was time to eat, they moved over, and Xiao Yuan also came down from upstairs, at this stall, Xue Mingyu suddenly leaned over: "Mr. .”
Xiao Dingshan left him a few words symbolically, and then said to Xiao Yuan: "You send him off."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yuan took a look at Xue Mingyu and said quietly, "I just happened to go to the appointment."
The two left one after the other, passed through the courtyard, and neither of them spoke. When they reached the gate, Xiao Yuan stood still, as if waiting for something.
And he had already gone to get the car and drove to her side.
Xiao Yuan glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, thinking that he would drive away, but at this moment Pete's phone call came, she picked up her smile and said, "If it's not convenient for you to pick me up, I can also take a taxi."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you for 10 minutes, later..." Seeing that the words have not been spoken, the phone has fallen into Xue Mingyu's hands neatly, and he said in a deep cello-like voice: "She can't date you Don't call her in the future."
Xiao Yuan didn't know what was wrong with her, she was thinking at this moment, his mother speaks English so well.
In a daze for a moment, Xue Mingyu had already hung up the phone, stuffed it into her hand, and took the bag from her hand away.
I opened it and glanced at it.
It's a famous brand, and he usually wears their clothes.
Xiao Yuan came back to her senses, and frowned fiercely: "What are you doing, you are so ridiculous, so ridiculous, do you know that?"
"I said, if you want to date someone, you need to find someone richer than me."
"You don't care if I look for rich or poor people, you are sick, Xue Mingyu! I am thirty, I want to get married, I want to have children, I am not you, I have a son as lovely as Moore, I am not old You are young, you are delaying me like this! It has been delayed for more than ten years, so don't delay it any longer!"
She was really angry, since they met in that restaurant, she lived in anxiety every day, he was too close to her.
She was afraid that Xiao Dingshan would find trouble with him if he knew they had a relationship, but he wanted to come to her side and try to break into her life.
He definitely let the door squeeze with his head.
As if the person who rejected her was not Xue Mingyu, he might need to see a doctor, or go back to China immediately.
Xiao Yuan's eyes were red, and she angrily grabbed the bag, it wasn't for him, why should he take it, but Xue Mingyu made it clear that she didn't want to give it to her, she pulled it back, and she rushed over.
Falling into his arms, Xue Mingyu didn't hug her, but lowered her voice and said, "I'm 35, am I pretty old too?"
Xiao Yuan's eyes flashed, and something seemed to cross her heart, hooking her sorely, and she pushed him away suddenly.
Staggering back two steps, she looked at him so hard.
As for him, he seemed to hold back his emotions, walked over unhurriedly, then grabbed her hand, turned around and opened the car door, and sent her in.
Until the car drove away, Xiao Yuan was numb.
There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart, and no greater sorrow than an immortal heart.
She has worked hard for a long time, so hard, from the beginning to the present, for 12 years, who can have a second 12 years of youth.
He fastened her seat belt, and he drove out smoothly, not forgetting to look in the rearview mirror, standing at the door looking at their mother Xiao.
For four or 10 minutes before arriving at his house, none of them spoke, and there was no music playing in the car. It was eerily quiet.
Seeing him change lanes, cross a quiet alley, and come to a residential area, she knew where he was going, and the phone started beeping frantically, and she knew it was Pete or Xiao Dingshan's call.
She felt like she was going crazy.
Depressed, low hoarse: "I'm very tired."
The car was running at full speed in vain, Xue Mingyu frowned almost imperceptibly, the next second, her big hand held hers, her hand was cold, she clasped her tightly, wrapped by him, she didn't feel warm at all.
Her chest was full of dissatisfaction, all kinds of love and hatred, and she threw his hand away angrily, and shouted: "Have you played enough! I really don't know what you are thinking! I said I was tired, I I don’t need any love, I need a family, I want to get married and have a baby, you can’t give it to me, stop! I tell you to stop!”
She was very excited, her emotions couldn't be stretched at this moment, she couldn't bear it at all, obviously she couldn't bear it when she saw him for the first time, and she just endured it for so long.
She is in pain.
But he didn't let go and continued to drive. She struggled crazily and moved the steering wheel vigorously to break away his hand.
Xue Mingyu's face was gloomy, and it was a bit difficult to control her with one hand, but it was already a delusion for him to stop at this time.
Xiao Yuan never gave him that chance at all, she struggled desperately and resisted vigorously.
When the car finally got out of control and drove desperately towards the guardrail, he stepped on the brakes to the bottom, turned around and embraced Xiao Yuan in his arms neatly.
With two bang bang bangs, the car crashed into the guardrail and finally stopped steadily.
The airbag popped out to protect them. He frowned, let go of the person in his arms, and asked her above her head, "Did you get hurt anywhere?"
Xiao Yuan lowered her head, and his hand had already dropped naturally, and she could see it from the corner of her eye. The arm was scratched and bleeding a little, which was ugly.
Eye sockets tightened, Xiao Yuan bit her lower lip tightly, desperately trying not to cry.
He couldn't see her trembling shoulders, swallowed a dragon, opened the door and got out of the car, walked to the co-pilot's side, unbuckled her seat belt, and pulled her out.
Fortunately, it was the guardrail at the door of my own house, otherwise it would take some time. The weather is already bad at this time, and there are thunder and lightning.
Holding his hand, she didn't look up, holding back her emotions, and came to his house one step at a time.
He placed her on the sofa, and he went to the refrigerator, took out the grapefruit tea, scooped it into a cup, rinsed it with warm water, and brought it back to her eyes.
Xiao Yuan stared at the grapefruit tea and took a deep breath: "Where is the medicine box?"
Xue Mingyu twitched his brows, his expression slightly relaxed.
Following Xue Mingyu's instructions, she took the medicine box from the cabinet, sat next to him, and pulled his hand over, leaving a long scratch.
Even though there was little bloodshed, it was shocking.
Thinking about everything today, when Xiao Yuan applied the medicine, she was not gentle at all, but very hard, pressing the medicine one by one, if it was Lu Nanyi, she would have beaten her a long time ago.
But he won't.
He has always been calm, even if this arm is broken, he doesn't seem to frown.
It's annoying to look at.
Xiao Yuan snorted softly, then increased her strength, feeling angry.
Xue Mingyu was so much taller than her, and she lowered her head to apply the medicine. He only needed to raise his other arm to completely embrace her in his arms, but he didn't do that, he just put his hand on the sofa On his back, he looked at her with a smile, indulgently: "Did you relieve your anger?"
Exhausted?
Take it easy, it's just annoying.
Xiao Yuan threw away the cotton swab: "I don't want to talk to you."
After that, she got up and walked towards the door, and Xue Mingyu said loudly to keep her: "It's raining outside, and it's getting dark, so you can stay here. There is a guest room at the corner of the second floor. The sheets and quilts are all new. Inside the locker, change it yourself."
Lying on the bed in their guest room, Xiao Yuan felt that she was quite cheap. She had loved a man, and she had listened to him since she was a child, worshiped him, admired him, looked up to him, and followed him.
Even if she said hard-heartedly that she would never get in touch with each other, but as soon as he appeared, she, Xiao Yuan, showed her true colors. He said to stay overnight, but she stayed, and when his arm was scratched, she applied medicine for him.
Even when he asked Xiao Dingshan how much Pete could help her, she deliberately dropped the book to help him out. She knew Xiao Dingshan would definitely say a number that he couldn't match.
Even with Xue Mingyu's worth, she didn't have the courage to think that he would do everything to get her.
In front of Xue Mingyu, she always thinks of herself very low, very low.
Thinking of this, she felt very annoyed, and angrily pulled the quilt up and covered her face.
Outside the door, Xue Mingyu was standing with a piece of cake, holding on to the doorknob, and was about to push it away, when she heard a rustling movement inside her.
Thinking about it, she was also irritable.
Glancing at the cake, he pursed the corner of his lower lip, turned and went back to the kitchen.
Xiao Yuan fell asleep very fast, maybe she was tired, and after a while, she fell into a deep sleep, but Xue Mingyu really couldn't fall asleep.
He was sitting on the sofa on the first floor, and the lights in the room were not turned on. Occasionally, the lightning outside would illuminate the room, otherwise the room would be pitch black.
Hei couldn't even notice it easily when he was sitting there.
Maybe he is still too slow, 12 years ago, he was up and down, doing things happily, but after 12 years, he is much slower.
As time passed, he had a lot to think about.
When there was movement upstairs, he looked sideways, and after a while, there was no sound again.
He sat back down and took a sip of water.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Yuan had a nightmare. All the nightmares she had in her life could not be true. Xiao Dingshan threatened her and forced her to leave Xue Mingyu, and Xue Mingyu also said indifferently that he was going to marry his fiancée because she was pregnant with her own child.
Their faces appeared alternately in front of her, one ferocious and the other indifferent.
Her heart was beating violently, and finally she couldn't take it anymore, and sat up.
The heavy rain outside the window made her sink heavily, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, raised her hand to touch her cheek, tears were streaming down her face.
After sitting for a while, she didn't relieve her emotions. She felt oppressed and uncomfortable. She lifted the quilt and got out of bed quickly. After dressing up, she went downstairs barefoot.
Hearing the voice, Xue Mingyu turned his head.
But she had something on her mind, and she was so dark, she didn't pay attention at all, she walked lightly step by step, when she reached the door, she bent over to put on her shoes, then turned her head and glanced upstairs again.
Xue Mingyu watched her withdraw her gaze, opened the door and left.
With a sharp tug in his heart, he immediately stood up.
She didn't pay attention to it, and she didn't hear it. It was raining heavily outside, and there were continuous thunder and lightning. She didn't seem to be afraid, and she couldn't even hear the sound.
So uncomfortable.
If he stayed any longer, he might suffocate.
Her body was soon wet, and before she could walk out of the yard, her hand was grabbed by someone.
Xiao Yuan shrank her body, turned her head abruptly, did not see who was coming, and screamed vigorously, Xue Mingyu did not hold an umbrella, and was already soaked through at this time.
Pulling hard, he pulled her into his arms, protected her head, and whispered: "It's so late, and it's raining again, what are you doing out here?"
