Chapter 62: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow

She was a little reluctant to look around the vegetable market, maybe she could meet a few aunts who were still setting up stalls. As a result, she turned around, but she couldn't even touch half a figure.

She came too late, and everyone gathered their stalls and went home!

Unlucky, she had to walk into the large supermarket next to her, only there might be some vegetables for sale. It's just that she had heard a little about this famous supermarket, and she heard that the prices there were not cheap. Xu Yu touched his flattened purse with some heartache and sighed.

As she cautiously walked into the supermarket, a cold wind blew in her face. There are so many kinds of items in it that she is dazzled by her first-time visit.

She fumbled her way to a place that specialized in selling vegetables and fruits, and began to select ingredients very skillfully. In her opinion, as long as poison does not kill people, she can accept it. But when she saw the price clearly written in black and white on the sign, she still took care of her temperament and went to pick some better fruits and vegetables.

After all, it's not easy to come here, and you can't afford to lose!

Just as she was vaguely and half-guessing, choosing the ingredients over and over again, a familiar figure entered the supermarket at the same time.

When she inadvertently looked up, she caught a glimpse of Xi Muchen in casual clothes from a distance!

The road is narrow!

She gritted her teeth secretly, and sure enough, she could touch him anywhere!

I saw that he took off his usual serious and dull suit, and turned to wear a white shirt with a low-key brand. Wearing a pair of big black sunglasses, but it still can't hide his transparent temperament. From time to time, a few girls pass by, and they will secretly take a few photos.

Seeing this, Xu Yu couldn't help but sneer. I'm afraid that those girls will be asked by his bodyguards to delete the photos when they get out of the supermarket, which is equivalent to working in vain.

It's just that what surprised her a little was that the high-spirited Xi Muchen was followed by a tall woman! Although the woman was not scantily dressed, she did not deliberately highlight her figure. Just at a glance, her beautiful appearance and extraordinary temperament can make ordinary people prohibitive.

is dressed in a white dress, but the delicate curves of her upper body are revealed, and a pair of beautiful legs without any fat are only exposed below the knee, which looks particularly good under the lighting of the supermarket lights. In particular, her steps are as graceful as if she were dancing a ballet.

The long-haired beauty is on the side, Xi Muchen is really romantic! Xu Yu thought about it like this, and he didn't feel sneered.

She was reluctant to keep her eyes on him anymore and continued to pick at her dishes.

It's just that the figures of those two people are always dangling around her, so she can't concentrate on the verdant vegetables in her hand at all. She had to keep her head low, trying not to make them recognize her.

But the woman beside Xi Muchen spoke delicately.

"Cousin—I want to eat that—" Even the hat she wore was white, and it was especially interesting to follow her movements.

I only heard Xi Muchen smile slightly, and responded softly, "Okay." ”

And when the promise was heard not far from them, it was as shocking as thunder. She pondered the gentle male voice she had never heard before. When Xi Muchen faced her, he had never revealed such tender emotions like flowing water. Whenever he touched him, he either yelled rudely at her or taunted her.

She carefully recalled the common experience of the two of them, thinking that there was always a time when they got along with each other in a peaceful mood. But the more she tried to find it, the more she couldn't find it...... Not even once. Her face suddenly looked a little unpleasant, her hand holding the vegetables trembled slightly, and even her teeth trembled.

Although she did not show such strong feelings of fear when she was kidnapped this morning. She thought that the cold Xi Muchen was the ugly poker face to all women. But she suddenly realized that he was only doing this to herself.

A terrible thought came to her mind: she ...... That's it, is it annoying to him......

Just when she was imprisoned by the possibilities she could speculate, the two on the other side were laughing. Although she could only hear the woman's coquettish chuckle, she could still imagine Mu Chen's shallow smile when she accompanied her cousin.

Promise's heart tightened, and she couldn't help but clench her fists tightly. Although others may not think about it, she thinks that she is being humiliated in public, as if she is being bullied, and all the nerves in her body are desperately sending painful signals to the brain, and the brain is torturing herself at the same time.

As if she couldn't take it anymore, she randomly chose some dishes and put them all in the basket at once. The head that had been buried had never been raised since Xi Muchen came in. She entered the supermarket in a daze, and eventually came out in a daze. It's just, why, is there a little pain in her heart inexplicably?

After Xu Promise came out of the department store and supermarket, he kept walking back in a daze. She didn't even have the will to take a taxi, but the subconscious in her head forced her to walk numbly, and at this point she completely lost her purpose, and just walked forward.

The surrounding trees, the clouds in the sky, the people in the streets. She no longer had any mind to watch or fantasize. She always looked dejected, and her eyes were always glued to the small spot at her feet.

"Bang". She accidentally bumped into the visitor, only to feel that the visitor's chest was as hard as a strong piece of metallic iron. She exhaled softly, rubbing her forehead with some annoyance. It's just that at this time, she was finally willing to raise her head, and at that moment, she felt a pain in her neck, which was the end of holding one position for a long time.

However, in her eyes, she was not just a strange passerby, and her expression was a little uncertain at this time. But she bit her lip anyway and apologized a little embarrassedly. It's just that her attitude is a little reluctant, which makes people feel insincere.

And the one who came looked at her in amazement, and followed her closely. When her face was presented to him, it was as stunning as ever. Xu Yu seemed to feel the other party's blazing probing eyes, and blushed slightly, and she quietly pinned her head to the side.

Her face was stained with a hint of gloom. It adds a bit of charm to her. It's like the stars in the sky, so you can't take your eyes off it. She seemed a little unhappy with the rudeness of the comer, and at this point she felt like she was leaving.

But the man did not look like he had given up. The foot that Xu Promise had just wanted to lift was forced to stop in mid-air.

"Miss Xu—" His thin lips opened slightly, as if stained with a hint of playfulness.

Xu Promise's eyes widened suddenly, as if he thought he shouldn't know his last name. She already had a bad complexion, and she could be described as a big dye vat at this time.

"How do you know my name?" she said coldly, cutting off her thoughts of leaving, her hands folded around her arms, and a little impatient.

It seems that at this time, he remembered that he hadn't introduced himself yet, and his face suddenly had a sense of enlightenment, and in general, it was very exciting.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot to introduce myself - Yin Zichuan, give me a lot of advice. As if remembering something, he added, "We've met this morning—"

Xu Yu tugged at the corners of her mouth, and unconsciously gritted her teeth, she naturally would not forget that rude man! Isn't it the doctor who searched Xi Muchen's bedroom without permission last time! She looked at him coldly, and in her heart she had already stripped off the gentleman's skin that he disguised as a gentleman.

"yes-" she snorted disdainfully, "I don't remember—"

Then, she couldn't wait to take a step out of this unfortunate place!

Who knows, when she hadn't walked a few steps away, Yin Zichuan said faintly behind him.

"Miss Xu was in such a hurry at that time, was there something wrong?"

The second time, she was forced to stop. Without looking back, she could imagine the smile that secretly lifted up at the corner of his mouth. She couldn't help but think back to her embarrassed self at that time.

Thanks to him, Xu Yuyou had to recall the thrilling scene again with a somewhat complicated face, but if it wasn't for Yin Zichuan's sudden appearance at that time, then she would definitely be dead. As soon as she thought of this, her complexion gradually softened. It's just that he still has to be his lips and refuse to let go.

"No, it's about you, it's about you. She said this word by word, and left without looking back.

……

In the taxi, Promise, who had not touched anything in the morning, rumbled in her stomach, and suddenly her face turned a little crimson, and she glanced at the driver with a calm look in her face unnaturally. This made her suddenly remember the vegetables she had just bought from the department store, and she was so troubled by Yin Zichuan, and her sanity was restored.

At this time, she looked at the vegetables she bought, and unconsciously smiled bitterly and pulled the corners of her mouth - she carelessly put all the vegetable leaves that people didn't want in a plastic bag. No wonder she always thought it was so strange for the cashier to look at her......

……

Finally returning to the rental house, she tiredly changed into slippers and put a large bag of rotten leaves on the table.

"I'm back—" she shouted into the back room. At this moment she caught a glimpse of the clock on the wall that kept walking, and it was so tossed on the way to and on the way back that it was almost afternoon when she got home.

Xu Nuo unconsciously stuck out her tongue, and buying a vegetable made her really toss all morning, and she really did it!

An sleepy answer came from the back room.

She poked her head out from behind the door in confusion, only to find that the snooze-loving An Ran had also slept soundly all morning. She frowned slightly and smiled helplessly.

"Oops, I'm tired of going grocery shopping—" She buried herself in the couch, the soft couch enveloping her whole body, providing shelter for her busy heart.

Unexpectedly, An Ran, who was on the side, noticed the pile of rotten vegetable leaves on the small table, and screamed unconsciously.

"Promise!" she screamed and rushed out of the room, only to see her eyes closed, her face full of tiredness lying on the sofa she had just bought.

She stepped forward angrily, pushed the promise that had softened into clay, and reprimanded with hatred. And at this time, the tired promise just hummed and chirped in response to An Ran's nagging. After reprimanding her for a long time and being almost thirsty, she finally saw the perfunctory appearance of the promise, but her stomach couldn't help but rumble after not eating all morning.

"Poof—" Promise, who was lying comfortably on the couch, laughed when he heard the strange noise.

At this time, An Ran was not happy, pulled Xu Yu up from the sofa, pouted, and said dissatisfiedly: "I don't care! You have to take care of my breakfast for me——"

She caught another glimpse of the clock on the wall and added, "And lunch!"

At this time, Xu Yue, who was leaning against the wall, looked at Enron's appearance that was about to blow up, and wanted to play a good trick.

After a lot of tossing, in the end, both sides compromised. I was going to go into the kitchen together to make breakfast, and I solved lunch by the way!

An Ran looked at a pile of rotten vegetable leaves with disgust, picked and chosen, and finally collected a bunch of green vegetable leaves that looked good. When she washed the leaves, she looked at the results of her struggle for a long time with satisfaction, and nodded alone, as if she was very proud.

And Xu Yu looked at the vegetable leaves that were about to crumble into slag, and his face darkened in an instant, and he looked at An Ran who was complacent on the side with a bad face, and he wanted to rush forward and strangle her to death.

Just as she was looking at the pile of unpalatable leaves and full of distress, a good idea suddenly flashed into her mind. Her troubles were swept away, and then she hugged An Ran excitedly, shouting that she was a genius! An Ran was a little dazed by her sudden appreciation, and she laughed stupidly, not knowing how many seconds ago that guy called her a fool!

Promise jumped open the refrigerator door, took some leftover enoki mushrooms, and threw them into the iron pot along with the chopped leaves.

With the help of the memories in her head and, of course, the Internet, she was able to move a delicious dish out of the pot in a short time.

An Ran, who had already been prepared on the small square table, waited with great interest for the promised special dishes. When it was still in the pot, a strange smell of vegetables was almost snatching her soul away. While looking at the figure of Xu Promise busy in the kitchen, she imagined for a while that would make her drool, and deeply experienced what happiness is.

At this time, the promise of cleaning in the kitchen can no longer care about happiness or unhappiness, and she has not been in charge for a long time at this time by a lot of housework, which is simply a small battlefield.

When she opened the lid of the pot, she found that the finely chopped leaves and enoki mushrooms had made an enticing soup. The green leaves of white mushrooms are light and light, but they have a unique flavor.

An Ran couldn't wait to scoop a full spoonful with a spoon, she pursed her lips slightly, blew lightly on the hot spoon a few times, and then put the whole spoonful into her mouth. She squinted slightly in enjoyment, and the delicacy stirred through her taste buds, filling her entire mouth with its taste.

Finally, he swallowed it reluctantly, and shouted "delicious" comfortably, and the nervous promise on the side finally breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did she pull out her chair and sit down peacefully at the dining table to share a delicious meal with An Ran.

For her, who has been living on instant noodles lately, this hot meal is really delicious.

In this way, the two spent a pleasant and soft afternoon in the small but full of laughter in the rental house. And the promise of a rare holiday couldn't stay in the house, because the family affection buried in her heart was suddenly awakened. She plans to visit her grandmother, whom she hasn't seen in a long time.

So she said goodbye to Enron, hired a taxi, and embarked on the road of life again.

……

Soon, Xu Yu rushed to the hospital. She looked at the familiar inpatient department and took a deep breath, the rich, icy smell of disinfectant alcohol filling her nostrils.

She easily found her grandmother's ward, suppressed the excitement in her heart, quietly pressed the handle, and with a "creak", the door opened.

What greeted her was her grandmother, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and for some reason, when she saw her again, she still had slightly red eyes...... Grandma, who had been bored all day, could only pass the last remaining time by falling asleep, and Xu Yu tiptoed to her bedside and sat down slowly.

At this time, she gently put it on her grandmother's old and rough hand, and endured her crying voice.

"Grandma—"

At this time, my grandmother was sleeping very soundly and did not seem to feel the arrival of the promise. Xu didn't want to wake her up, but stayed quietly beside her for a while, and helped clean up around the hospital bed. Looking at the neat and new surroundings, even the mood has become better.

She leaned her head close to her grandmother, counted the furrow-like lines on her face, counted and counted her unconsciously, laughed unconsciously, as if she realized something, she quickly pulled out a tissue to wipe away her tears, and sniffed.

By this time night had fallen, as if she had caught a glimpse of the city at night, and then, slowly, she picked up her bag, and it was time to say goodbye to her grandmother.

With a reluctant look, she turned back three times in one step, and finally reached the door. She lowered her head as she gently pressed down on the doorknob. In a flash, she walked out of the hospital room.

She was the only one in the deserted aisle, and the smell of alcohol that was peculiar to the hospital loomed beside her. Another corner, her eyes flashed, and there she ran into an acquaintance she didn't want to meet.

The visitor seemed to be extremely surprised to see her, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously hooked up a mockery. And the promise on the other hand, at this time, also flashed with hostility. The thorns all over her body were open, and there was an emotion called vigilance in her eyes.

I saw that the visitor shook her long hair and rolled up her arms. Her smooth shoulders were about to glow in the hospital lights, and a condescending aura made her chin lift proudly.

"Yo-what a coincidence--promise-" Her red lips opened slightly, and the rich smell of perfume suddenly occupied between the two, "I didn't expect to meet you here-my good sister-"

It's Xu Lan!

Promise's eyes narrowed nervously, and the bag in his hand became tighter and tighter. I saw her smile quietly, and Xu Lan, who was provoked on the side, also pretended to grin. After a simple greeting, he promised that he felt that this place was not suitable for a long time, so he thought about leaving as soon as possible.

She was looking at Xu Lan carefully, and she was secretly looking at Xu Lan.

Just as she was thinking about how to leave, Xu Lan seemed to see through the promise's careful thoughts, took a step back, and blatantly intercepted the promise's way. Xu Promise frowned almost invisibly when she saw her move, and Xu Lan on the side stared at Xu Promise motionlessly, as if she wanted to see something flaw under her calm mask.

The two faced each other like this for a few seconds, and the dark waves were surging in the quiet but increasingly breathless atmosphere. Promise is unwilling to waste time with her playing these boring childish games. She planned to ignore Xu Lan and leave. But just when she wanted to bypass Xu Lan, she found that Xu Lan also moved.

She took a step to the right, and Xu Lan also moved in her direction, and she moved a step to the left, and Xu Lan moved another step in the same way.

After going back and forth a few times, Xu Yue's face became more and more ugly, and looking at Xu Lan's smug expression of deliberately finding fault, she felt angry. But she still swallowed her mouth and said, "Xu Lan, what do you want?"

At that moment, Xu Lan saw her stop, tilted her head, pursed her mouth, and showed a funny expression. She shook her head a little and said, "I don't want to do anything?

As she spoke, she paused, as if to admire the pitiful and bullied appearance that promised her. But the promise didn't fulfill her wishes, she just looked at Xu Lan coldly, even though there was more dissatisfaction in her heart. Promise is now more and more careful, not wanting to be caught by her.

Xu Lan was unwilling to provoke her again, and the disgust on her face couldn't be covered even if she used thick fat powder.

"What?

Xu Yu smiled as if he didn't care, and slowly spit out a sentence, which made Xu Lan slightly stunned.

"No, I don't, I see. ”

As if she didn't expect her to be so faceless and skinless, Xu Lan could no longer hold the pleasure of manipulating her at will, and snorted a little unpleasantly.

"What are you doing at the hospital?" she finally said.

Xu Promise listened to her question, and he couldn't help but feel funny. What does her coming to the hospital have to do with their Xu family? As soon as she thought of this, she closed her mouth tightly, and did not want to turn her head away, unwilling to speak again.

And Xu Lan saw her like this, but she was even more suspicious, she began to ask for promises, but promises were also a hard temper, and the more she asked, the more she refused to speak. Xu Lan stared at her viciously, and suddenly a flash of inspiration appeared in her mind, as if she had thought of some way to humiliate her promise in public, her face changed, and her voice gradually became louder.

"I think you look like this, you must not know that your father is hospitalized—" She took out the appearance of an eldest sister, as if mocking her ignorance, and as if lamenting that she didn't even know that her biological father was sick.
