Cry louder, I can't hear you.
Chapter 69 Could you please help me pick up some food, sister-in-law?
"You can call me Sister Shiyu."
Shen Shiyu continued to extend goodwill.
Yun Qiao had no choice but to call out "Sister Shi Yu".
Then she continued:
"I don't know if you know my cousin well. Although I haven't had much contact with him, I don't think he's a good person. He's not right for you."
Yun Qiao felt somewhat helpless.
And yet, she opens her heart to strangers like this.
They weren't afraid that she would relay these words to Shen Qing.
If someone with bad intentions were to tell Shen Qing what Shen Shiyu said, given the difficult nature of Shen Qing's family, they would definitely cause trouble for Shen Shiyu.
Not wanting to say too much to her, but afraid she would worry, Yunqiao finally replied:
"I understand, I will think about it carefully."
Hearing this, Shen Shiyu finally felt relieved.
After Yunqiao finished packing, the two left together and headed to the restaurant.
On the way, Shen Shiyu took the initiative to add Yun Qiao's contact information and mentioned again that she could contact her if needed.
Yun Qiao knew that what she said was not just polite talk.
Whether in the past or present, she will always be so warm-hearted and kind.
When Yun Qiao arrived at the restaurant, she thought she would run into Shen Qing's annoying face, but she didn't expect to see Shen Suwei first.
He must have heard the noise, because he looked up and "looked" at them, but his gaze was unfocused and his eyes were very calm.
When Yun Qiao saw him, she realized that she should have asked Shen Shiyu about Shen Suwei's situation.
However, we've already exchanged contact information, so you can ask again later.
"Where are the others?"
Shen Shiyu was the first to ask Yun Qiao the question she was curious about.
Yun Qiao was somewhat surprised and turned to look at her.
Three years have passed, and she seems to have become much bolder.
She really does resemble "Sister Shiyu" quite a bit.
Shen Suwei did not answer Shen Shiyu's question, but the person next to him spoke up:
"Something came up and they won't be coming for dinner."
Shen Shiyu frowned. "What a coincidence, do you both have something going on?"
This time, the person behind Shen Suwei didn't speak. Instead, Shen Suwei raised his eyes and "looked" at Shen Shiyu.
"If you have any doubts, you can go and ask them in person."
Shen Shiyu choked, rolled her eyes at him, and snorted coldly, "Fine, I'll go."
She turned and left as soon as she finished speaking, not even caring about Yun Qiao.
Yun Qiao stood to the side, glancing at Shen Suwei and then at Shen Shiyu who had turned and left, her eyes filled with disbelief. How dare Shen Shiyu speak to Shen Suwei like that?
Is it because he is blind and lame that we are not afraid of him?
But Shen Shiyu wasn't the kind of person who would kick someone when they're down.
The problem must lie with Shen Suwei...
Yun Qiao withdrew her gaze from Shen Shiyu and turned to look at the man sitting in the wheelchair.
It was late October, and the wind was strong on the island. He had a thin blanket draped over his knees, and his hands were folded on his lap, looking calm and serene.
Although he couldn't see, perhaps sensing Yun Qiao's gaze, he spoke:
Are you leaving too?
Yun Qiao's gaze paused slightly.
The way that was said sounded rather pitiful.
"Are all the other people really okay?"
He lowered his eyes:
"Maybe they think I'm bad luck and don't want to eat at the same table with me."
"?" Who would dare to think he's unlucky?
But his tone was low and his expression was forlorn.
With a table full of dishes, but no one in the seats, he sat there all alone.
It seems that it really does seem to be true...
"If you want to leave, then go ahead."
He spoke again, his tone gentle and understanding.
Yun Qiao looked at him, remained silent for a moment, but ultimately did not leave.
She walked over, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
"The food looks delicious tonight."
He smiled slightly. "I'm glad you like it."
He paused, then added, "Unfortunately, I'm blind, so I don't know what kinds of dishes there are."
His tone was tinged with regret.
Yun Qiao thought that there were only the two of them at the table, and it would be awkward if neither of them spoke.
Perfect timing! We can eat while we talk about this topic, which will also reduce awkwardness.
So I started to introduce the dishes on the table to him one by one.
He suddenly interrupted when he had just started introducing the second dish:
Could you sit a little closer?
As if afraid that Yun Qiao would misunderstand, he nervously explained:
"You're too far away, I can't hear you very well."
Yun Qiao paused, looked at the long table, and then at the man opposite her with unfocused eyes.
In the end, she compromised and moved to a spot closer to him.
Before he could even sit down, the phone rang of the man behind him who had been serving him food.
He answered a phone call while wearing headphones, and after hanging up, he whispered something to Shen Suwei in a hurry before running away.
In an instant, only Yun Qiao and Shen Suwei remained in the huge restaurant.
"Where did he go?" I felt a little strange.
"He has some urgent business to attend to, just leave him alone."
Yun Qiao hesitated, wanting to say that she didn't want to control him.
Instead, if he runs away, who will serve Shen Suwei food?
Could it be her?
Just as I was having these doubts, Shen Suwei indeed spoke up:
"Could you please help me pick out some food, sister-in-law?"
"..."
"You might need to sit a little closer to me, thank you."
They really don't give people a chance to refuse.
If Yun Qiao hadn't known he was blind, she would have suspected he was deliberately teasing her.
Yun Qiao changed seats for the second time, and this time she sat next to him.
When she got closer, Yun Qiao could clearly smell his unique scent, exactly the same as the one she had smelled three years ago.
Just as I was somewhat lost in thought, I suddenly heard him speak slowly:
"I don't know why, but my sister-in-law smells so familiar."
Yun Qiao suddenly shuddered, instinctively wanting to move away from him, but then he said:
"The serving chopsticks are here, could you please pick up some sweet and sour fish for me?"
"Don't you dislike sweets?" Yun Qiao blurted out instinctively.
Shen Suwei was surprised:
"How did your sister-in-law know I don't like sweets?"
He stared intently at Yun Qiao, as if he could actually see her.
Yun Qiao felt flustered and uneasy. Although she knew he couldn't see her, she still felt uncomfortable being stared at by his eyes.
She looked away and explained dryly:
"I heard it from Shen Qing."
"My sister-in-law and cousin have a really good relationship."
His eyes darkened slightly, revealing a hint of coldness.
Unfortunately, Yun Qiao didn't see him and didn't know.
When did your sister-in-law and cousin meet?
Yun Qiao was eager for him to change the subject, and immediately took over the conversation upon hearing this:
"We met abroad several years ago."
"How many years is a few years?"
Yun Qiao recalled the information the system had given her and answered cautiously:
"It's been almost eight years."
"Eight years..." he repeated softly, sighing wistfully, "That's quite a long time."
"It has taken quite a long time."
What's going on? He clearly has amnesia, yet his tone is so gentle.
She still felt immense pressure...
She used serving chopsticks to put a piece of sweet and sour fish on his plate.
"Thank you." He smiled modestly, but after fiddling with the fish in the bowl for a while, he still couldn't pick it up. Every time he thought he was about to grab it, the fish would slip and fall back into the bowl.
Yunqiao was extremely anxious watching from the side.
Seeing the annoyed look on his face, Yun Qiao hadn't even had time to react before she reached out with her chopsticks, picked up the piece of fish, and held it to his mouth.
