Chapter 3: Picky

Sima Shu stood in place, empty, his heart seemed to have been stripped of half of it, bleeding painfully.

The breeze in the middle of the lake suddenly turned into a strong wind, blowing the lake water difficult to calm down, just like Sima Shu's current mood.

On the edge of the empty lake, the lake wind echoed, blowing Sima Shu's ears buzzing, except for Sima Shu's powerful and surging heart hidden in the depths of consciousness, it was the only sound that could be heard in front of him.

I don't want to break up, Zhou Yao, come back!

However, no matter how strong the thought is, everything is a foregone conclusion, and it is difficult to change it!

Sima Shu returned home with a low land, and Wu Ningxin was already looking at the gate of the courtyard. Since Sima Shu left, she has been restless, and she is deeply afraid that Zhou Yao will propose to let Sima Shu leave here.

The most surprising thing for her was that Zhou Yao and Sima Shu broke up. Wu Ningxin was overjoyed, couldn't suppress her excited heartbeat, lowered her eyebrows and asked Sima Shu in a low voice: "Then you..."

"You'll be my girlfriend from now on," Sima Shu said, his face was cold and he couldn't see any emotion.

However, this is enough to surprise Wu Ningxin.

Wu's father and Wu's mother were also happy, Wu's mother's smile overflowed from the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and she secretly said: I will let Ning Ning take me to have a facial treatment tomorrow.

As soon as Sima Shu wanted to enter the house, Lu Qi'an ran in panting, shouting: "Sima Shu, you stop for me"!

Sima Shu stopped and stared at Lu Qi'an coldly. Lu Qi'an ran in front of him, and coldly rushed at Sima Shu's face, which was a punch.

Sima Shu didn't expect that Lu Qi'an would beat him, and he was beaten to a stumbling side, barely holding his body and standing, without falling to the ground. Wu Ningxin didn't expect Lu Qi'an to beat people as soon as he came, so he let out an "ah".

Then screaming "What are you doing", he ran to support Sima Shu and asked Lu Qi'an: "Why are you beating people?"

Lu Qi'an looked at Wu Ningxin, and said angrily to Sima Shu: "Sima Shu, you can do it, you really let her live in your house, I didn't know that you Sima Shu is so short of women"!

Although Lu Qi'an's words were a little heavier, Sima Shu still didn't say a word, and let Lu Qi'an sneer at him.

Perhaps, at this moment, only Lu Qi'an's piercing words can make him numb his empty heart and recover the feeling of pain.

"Sima Shu, I'm really blind, I'm a brother with you, it turns out that you are such a casual person, it's okay to be a woman, I think you are too lonely to live alone, and you urgently need the comfort of a woman's arms", the more Lu Qi'an said, the more angry he became, grabbed Sima Shu's collar, and punched again.

Wu Ningxin stopped in front of Sima Shu and scolded angrily: "What's the matter with you, you beat people as soon as you come, and you are unreasonable"!

Lu Qi'an looked at Wu Ningxin coldly, snorted, and said sarcastically to Sima Shu: "Sima Shu, it turns out that you not only need a woman's arms to soothe, but also a woman's protection."

Sima Shu said coldly to Wu Ningxin: "Go into the house." Wu Ningxin hesitated: "But...".

"Go in," Sima Shu ordered.

Wu Ningxin pouted her cherry lips, extremely unhappy, she felt that Sima Shu did not respect her enough. He spoke softly to Zhou Yao, and he always had this commanding tone to himself.

However, she didn't dare to disobey Sima Shu's order and went in stupidly.

Lu Qi'an saw Wu Ningxin leaving, and punched Sima Shu in the face again, saying, "Sima Shu, don't fight back, as if you let me." You'd better fight back, I'll convince you today."

Lu Qi'an's words aroused Sima Shu's enthusiasm. He was already depressed because of the breakup and had nowhere to vent. When Lu Qi'an said this, he was depressed and rushed at Lu Qi'an.

The two of them scuffled in the courtyard like this, Sima Shu was beaten by Lu Qi'an and had a nosebleed, and Lu Qi'an was also beaten by Sima Shu and his nose was blue and his face was swollen. This fierce scene frightened Wu Ning to cover her mouth and watch, but she couldn't do anything. She didn't know how to dissuade the two brothers from beating each other to death!

The two of them had enough, ignoring the dust on their bodies, and rested together.

Lu Qi'an wiped his sweat and said: "Sima Shu, from childhood to adulthood, I have been your defeated men, and today I finally won the battle against you."

Sima Shu gasped, simply lay on the ground on his back, and said, "Lu Qi'an, thank you."

"Thank me?"

Lu Qi'an said: "Ouch, it's rare, it's not easy to hear these two words from your Sima Shu's mouth." You Sima Shu is cold-faced and cold-hearted."

Sima Shu didn't mind Lu Qi'an's ridicule of himself, he said: "The reason why you can beat me today is because of friendship, your friendship with Zhou Jin." Although I let Zhou Yao suffer the pain of breaking up, I am much more relieved to have you by her side and comfort her like this."

When Lu Qi'an heard Sima Shu say this, he felt that Sima Shu was not a ruthless person, so he stopped sarcastically mocking him, and asked him puzzledly: "Since you are not unaffectionate to Zhou Yao, why did you break up with her?"

Sima Shu replied: "You and Zhou Jin are close friends, you should know her temperament, although she is tolerant, but she has pure requirements for love, and she can't tolerate the slightest flaw." In Wu Ningxin's matter, she will be stubborn and will never allow me to take such a stand!"

Lu Qi'an sighed: "Now that you know, why should you be stubborn and coax her, isn't it over?

Sima Shu felt very relieved in his heart, in this world, there is always a Lu Qian who understands himself.

"I want to too, but I can't open my mouth all the time," Sima Shu replied.

Lu Qi'an didn't know that he knew Sima Shu better than Zhou Yao. However, when he thought that Sima Shu actually allowed Wu Ningxin to live here, he felt distressed and hateful.

"Then why did you choose Wu Ningxin?"

Sima Shu replied: "Anyway, it's not Zhou Yao, anyone can do it."

Lu Qi'an nodded, yes, it's because no one is as good as you. If you don't find fault, it doesn't matter who you are!

Lu Qi'an stood up, patted the soil on his body, looked at Sima Shu, who kept his back on his back, shook his head helplessly, didn't say anything, and went home to change his clothes.

He still has to visit Zhou Jin, he is really not at ease, I don't know what happened to Zhou Jin!

And Sima Shu continued to lie like this, unable to cry, unable to shed tears, only this posture of breaking the jar and breaking could make him feel not so sad in his heart.

Sima Shu didn't cry, and Zhou Jia didn't shed tears, the way she endured the pain was fever. She curled up, hugged herself, and lay face in, seeking safety in this position, allowing her body to replace her inner pain with her heart.

Zhou Jin meditated in his heart: Let's burn it like this, the body is too uncomfortable, and I have no time to take care of the heartache.

Huang Jingcan sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Zhou Yao, feeling distressed and annoyed. Zhou Jin was afraid that his mother would be worried about him, so he didn't dare to go home, so he came back from the lake and went straight to Huang Jingcan's dormitory.

After she told Huang Jingcan about the breakup, she couldn't afford it. Huang Jingcan touched Zhou Yao's hot forehead, looked at her trembling body, felt distressed, and at the same time hated Sima Shu's change of heart.

Huang Jingcan prayed that there might be a turn for the better in this matter, so he didn't dare to delay and called Lu Qi'an, intending to ask him to mediate, for fear that if the matter dragged on for a long time, it would be shelved into a dead end. When Lu Qi'an received the call, he didn't hesitate at all, so he ran to find Sima Shu.

Half a day later, Lu Qi'an gently pushed the door in, and Huang Jingcan asked eagerly, "How is it? What is Sima Shu's attitude?"

Lu Qi'an shook her head, Huang Jingcan understood, it seemed that Lu Qi'an had failed to persuade peace, and a layer of coolness had added to her heart. However, she still held on to a glimmer of hope and asked Lu Qi'an: "Is there no room for redemption?"

"No," Lu Qi'an replied.

Then, looking at the sleepy Zhou Jin worriedly, he asked Huang Jingcan, "Can she still stand it?"
