Chapter Ninety-Nine: There Was a Trace of Guilt
"What's wrong?" asked Jupiter Xingchen as he walked up to Yan Yidong's side.
"Not really. Yan Yidong lowered his head and replied, with a thin sadness in his voice.
"She can't have misunderstood my relationship with you. Jupiter suddenly realized.
Yan Yidong chuckled: "It would be nice if that was the case." If that's the case, it means that Jingya still has him in her heart. He really hoped that Jingya would mind just now, even a little bit, but unfortunately she didn't, she was just blaming herself and Xia Meiru for joining hands to hinder Gu Yunfan.
"Let's go, I'll invite you to dinner. Mu Xingchen pulled Yan Yidong, "By the way, let's talk about the results of today's market survey." ”
Yan Yidong asked Jupiter to be in charge of the new project related to children, Jupiter wanted to know more about the domestic consumer market for children, these days she visited a lot of children-related stores, in the morning when she was ready to go out, Yan Yidong called and said that he would also go with her.
Unexpectedly, I met Jingya here.
After arriving at the restaurant, Jupiter opened her laptop, entered the survey notes she had made one by one into the form on the computer, and then put down the paper in her hand and began to express her opinion.
"Yan Dong, did you hear it just now?" Mu Xingchen looked at Yan Yidong's distracted expression.
"Well, I heard you. Yan Yidong nodded absently, he did hear it, but only because his heart was thinking about the person just now.
"No, I have to ask Xia Meiru. Yan Yidong muttered.
"Huh?" Jupiter Xingchen naturally didn't hear this sentence clearly.
Xia Meiru has had a high fever for a few days recently, she is lying on the bed with soreness and soreness, and she has no appetite, and when Zeng Qing asked her what she wanted to eat, she just shook her head weakly.
Zeng Qing had no choice but to help her clean up the house, and finally boiled a pot of white rice porridge.
"Miss Xia, the porridge is ready, you can eat some. Zeng Qing knocked on the door a few times, and then said through the door.
Xia Meiru also ignored it, closed her eyes and didn't speak.
Zeng Qing had no choice but to open the door, the room was still in the same state as three hours ago, the curtains were drawn tightly, the sunlight outside was all blocked by this thick blackout cloth, the room was dark and gloomy, Xia Meiru was still lying on the bed, it should be said that she was still covered in the quilt.
Zeng Qing had no choice but to walk to the window, pull it hard, and open the curtains, and the bright light immediately filled the whole room.
"Why are you opening the curtains?" Xia Meiru did not get used to the dazzling sunlight, she frowned and still closed her eyes, and said angrily. But because he was sick, his voice sounded low and hoarse.
As if she hadn't heard, Zeng Qing began to clean up her messy bedside table.
"I'm talking to you, why don't you ignore me? Xia Meiru opened her eyes slightly, got up from the bed, and said even more angrily.
Zeng Qing took the cup and poured hot water on it, picked up the box of cold medicine from the bedtable, and really didn't eat a single piece of the medicine, Zeng Qing broke off the tin foil, and handed the small pill and the water cup to Xia Meiru.
"Here, take the medicine. ”
"I don't take it, I don't want to take medicine. Xia Meiru didn't answer.
Zeng Qing sighed, "Eat, if you don't eat, where will you have the strength to see him again in the future." ”
"Even you laugh at me. ”
"I'm not laughing, I just want to tell you that your body is your own, and if you don't even cherish yourself, then how can others love you. Zeng Qing looked at Xia Meiru and said softly.
I don't know why, Xia Meiru felt that this was also very reasonable, "Okay, I'll eat." Xia Meiru said and took the pill orally.
Zeng Qing smiled, "That's right, hurry up and freshen up, I cooked white porridge, you eat a little." With that, he left the room.
Xia Meiru was still sitting motionless on the bed, as if she was thinking about something. Zeng Qing's smile just now was really like Gu Yunfan, but she knew that he was not Gu Yunfan, but at that moment, her heart suddenly seemed to have petals falling gently, soft and comfortable.
"What's wrong?" Zeng Qing asked Xia Meiru, who was motionless on the bed, when he returned to the door.
Xia Meiru said "oh" and said, "No, it's nothing." ”
After Xia Meiru finished washing, she saw a bowl of steaming white porridge and a small plate of pickles on the table, so she sat down and began to eat, fragrant and thick rice soup and melt-in-your-mouth rice grains, coupled with fresh salty and sour pickles, Xia Meiru couldn't help but have a great appetite, she ate two bowls in one go, and her vest began to sweat, she looked at Zeng Qing and smiled: "I can't see it, you are still so good at cooking porridge,"
"I've been cooking since I was very young, and it's not a big deal to cook this little porridge. Zeng Qing smiled faintly.
"You can also cook?" Xia Meiru seemed to have heard something new, and looked surprised.
"Well, it's just home-cooked food, and it's definitely not comparable to their chefs. Zeng Qing said modestly.
Xia Meiru's family is all cooked by maids, not to mention that she can't cook herself, she rarely even sees Zhao Xiangjue in the kitchen. Xia Zhengnian and Zhao Xiangjue always have social, and many times Xia Meiru is too lazy to eat at home, and always eats out with her classmates. So, whether it's a Michelin restaurant or some famous hotels, she has eaten a lot, she has never lacked food, but like today's porridge and side dishes, she feels that far more than those delicacies in the past.
"You made it delicious, and you also made this pickle?" Xia Meiru took another bite of the crisp pickle.
"No, this is my mother's doing, we countrymen will do this, this is the last time I went home, my mother loaded some for me, when I first came to you, I thought that your appetite must not be very good, so I packed a small box and brought it. ”
"Anything else? give me some more. ”
"Huh?" Zeng Qing seemed to think that he had heard it wrong, and looked at Xia Meiru with his mouth wide open.
"Reluctantly?"
"No, no, I think ......" You are like a princess, how can you like to eat this kind of pickles, this sentence Zeng Qing swallowed back into his stomach, and changed his words: "I think that few people still like to eat pickles now." ”
"Then you don't give it. ”
"Give!" Zeng Qing laughed again.
As she said this, Xia Meiru's mobile phone rang, and she glanced at the three words on the screen on the table, and a sneer appeared on her face.
Zeng Qing deliberately avoided it, so he began to clean up the table and took the dishes into the kitchen.
"Hey!" she answered.
"Let me ask you, what did you say to Jing Ya?" It can be imagined that Yan Yidong must have been very angry at this time.
"What can I say, she took the initiative to ask me, and I just answered truthfully. Maybe it was the two bowls of hot white porridge just now that made her cold completely cured, and at this moment, Xia Meiru's voice had the same contemptuous tone as before.
"You're hopeless. ”
"I'm hopeless, what about you, how good can you be, I'm just trying my best to get what I want, and you don't dare to do anything, do you blame me?" Xia Meiru is holding her mobile phone in one hand and playing with her nails with the other, she hasn't done a nail art for a long time, and the new nails have grown a little half, and it seems that she has to find a time to do her nails again.
Yan Yidong paused for a moment before he spoke: "Xia Meiru, I warn you again, don't do this hard work again, if you dare to hurt Jingya again, I will let you repay it twice." ”
Xia Meiru suddenly laughed, the laughter was very sharp and piercing, "What an infatuated person, you are trying so hard to protect her and defend her now, but she still hates you and hates you, you might as well come with me, no matter what, we are also old friends." ”
"Impossible!" Yan Yidong's voice was very crisp, and then he hung up the phone directly.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Yan Yidong's expression, Jupiter Xingchen put down his phone with a blank expression.
Yan Yidong shook his head and sighed before saying, "I used to think that I was stupid enough, but I didn't expect someone to be even more stupid, it's hard for me to imagine what will happen next." ”
"Give!" Jupiter handed over a cigarette and continued: "Everyone's attitude towards love is different, some people feel that they must get it, but some people feel that as long as the other party is happy, it will be fine. ”
"Which one do you belong to?" Yan Yidong raised his eyes and asked Jupiter Xingchen.
"Oh, I'm not qualified to enjoy this. Jupiter smiled faintly, then passed the cigarette from his finger to his lips and took a sharp puff.
Xia Meiru asked Xu Fangfang to go to the SPA together, Xia Meiru is an old member here, Xu Fangfang is here for the first time, she usually loves maintenance, so the foundation will not be bad. The staff vigorously praised her for her good skin, good figure, and better facial features, which made Xu Fangfang happy, so she also got a membership card.
Naturally, the staff happily brought hot drinks, fruit and pastries.
"Aunt Fangfang, you are usually not in China, why do you apply for a card, if you want to use it, you can use mine directly. ”
"I'll be in the country all this time. ”
"Really?"
"This can still lie to you. ”
Xia Meiru was very happy, "Then you can help me again." ”
"You girl. Xu Fangfang looked at Xia Meiru with a doting face, and then leaned in front of Xia Meiru and said, "That Bai Jingya can't get pregnant, this is a good opportunity." ”
"Huh?" Xia Meiru seemed to be frightened, and her tongue was knotted, "That...... She...... Between her...... It's still ........"
"That was before, wasn't it gone?" Xu Fangfang stirred the coffee in the cup with a small spoon.
"Oh. Xia Meiru said in a low voice, Bai Jingya can't get pregnant, it should have something to do with that miscarriage, she thought of it, and a trace of guilt rose in her heart.
"Did you take the photo you took last time? Xu Fangfang elegantly ate a piece of fruit.
"Shoot. Xia Meiru replied dumbfoundedly, her thoughts still a little confused.
"Then you should keep that picture, it will be very useful later. Xu Fangfang showed a smile, which was very beautiful, but it made people feel a chill.
