Chapter 253: Human Words Are Terrifying
"Do you know the real reason for Team Cheng's departure?"
"Needless to say, of course it's because of Shu Wan!"
"Shu Wan, this woman doesn't look very old, but her ability is quite big, and she fascinated our Cheng team, and even gave up our tour group."
"Hey, poor Cheng team has been deceived by such a good man......"
"But it's not, in my opinion, her fiancΓ© didn't worry about her traveling by herself, so she chased after her!"
"Maybe she's hooked up with many men under the pretext of travel...... What a watery poplar woman! β
β¦β¦
The sound of water passed, and the two women in the tour group had already left the bathroom talking and laughing.
The door of the cubicle was opened, Shu Wan lowered her eyes, slowly walked out of it, turned on the faucet, and mechanically repeated the action of washing her hands.
She never agreed to Cheng Lifeng's courtship, why did she get involved with him? has also become a woman who has become a watery poplar in other people's mouths?
All the way back to the restaurant, Shu Wan met a lot of friends in the group, and I don't know what they were talking about.
She smiled and wanted to say hello to them casually, but the group of friends scattered as if they had seen the plague god.
When she was sitting at the dining table, Shu Wan was eating the king crab that she had finally snatched, and she was obviously so hungry that her saliva flowed out first, but at the moment she felt like chewing wax.
She is not a woman who lives in the eyes of others, she has always been her own way, and she is the only one who is happy.
But until now, when she heard those discussions, she felt that there was something wrong in her heart, as if she had suffered bad comments for no reason, no one believed it, and she couldn't refute it.
"Didn't you cry and make a fuss about snatching the last king crab? Don't like to eat it when you get it? Fu Jingshi's voice sounded on the other side at the right time, and the corners of his lips curved slightly, with a look that he knew this earlier.
"Who said that!"
Shu Wan took the fork and went directly into the opposite plate, mercilessly snatched away a whole piece of fresh meat that he had just taken out of the crab legs, and stuffed it into his mouth completely.
The tender and sweet aroma of crab meat suddenly spread in the mouth, stimulating the taste buds, the meat is silky and distinct, very chewy, she chewed, revealing a satisfied look, and couldn't help but stretch out her thumb.
Fu Jingshi, who was on the other side, saw her like this, and said lightly: "Clever robbery is a robber act." β
Shu Wan didn't care, and even tried to grab the meat on the opposite plate, and said like a jujube: "A robber is a robber, it's better than being hungry!" β
"Tut-tut, pretending to be simple, it's really not ashamed......"
The men and women who passed by from nowhere, saw Shu Wan's appearance, and whispered again and again, but the voice was not big or small, and it just happened to fall into her and Fu Jingshi's ears.
Shu Wan's hand holding the fork stopped in mid-air, her expression was a little unnatural, looking for the backs of those people, who should also be from the group.
She heard so many words today that she almost didn't have to think about it, and subconsciously took those words as a description of herself.
Fu Jingshi didn't realize it, as if she didn't hear it, and sent the meat she was about to grab from her plate to her plate: "If you don't eat it this time, the cooked duck will fly." β
Shu Wan lowered her eyes, glanced at her plate, and looked at Fu Jingshi opposite, her eyes subconsciously dodged, and she whispered, "Why don't we stay here?" β
She wore a thick black sweater, leaned back in front of the thick leather chair, but did not feel comfortable at all, as if others were eyeing behind, and the sharp words were like small needles densely pierced into her back.
Fu Jingshi had already seen that Shu Wan was absent-minded, and it was better to go back than to be uncomfortable here, so he stepped forward and took Shu Wan into his arms.
On the way from the restaurant to the elevator and back to the room, they still met many friends in the group, and everyone pretended not to know each other, hiding far away and ignoring them.
As soon as she entered the door, Shu Wan picked up the red wine and goblets sent by the hotel, sat down on the rattan chair on the terrace depressedly, and drank one cup after another.
She really couldn't figure it out, and she didn't know how she became the target of public criticism.
Fu Jingshi followed behind, also took a goblet and sat aside, poured red wine calmly, took a sip elegantly, and said with a smile: "This is a good red wine in 82 years, how can it be swept away by you like drinking two pots, you have to taste it one by one." β
Shu Wan raised the goblet, the corners of her eyes were slightly filled with tears, and she smiled self-deprecatingly: "You're right, I'll taste the product." β
She followed Fu Jingshi's example, took a sip, and the rich sweetness of the wine juice immediately spread out in her mouth, completely without the stimulation before, only the mellow and smooth aftertaste.
After drinking, I couldn't help but praise sincerely: "It's really a good wine." β
Fu Jingshi stretched out his hand and gently brushed away the tears that flickered in the corners of Shu Wan's eyes, he was inexplicably a little distressed, his voice was much softer than usual, and asked, "Are you feeling better?" β
He has never been very good at comforting people, so he can only use his own way to guide her to divert her attention and stay by her side to relieve her emotions.
Shu Wan's voice hummed low, although she didn't have much expression, the faint sorrow between her eyebrows had dissipated.
"Awan, you've really changed a lot now." Fu Jingshi seemed to laugh and teased, and his deep eyes flashed with a touch of differentness.
Shu Wan tilted her head to look at him, did not reply, and motioned for him to continue.
Fu Jingshi said in a fluttering tone: "In the past, no matter how ugly others spoke, you wouldn't care too much, it wasn't taken seriously at all, why do you still care about others now?" β
Shu Wan's mood is now a lot more relaxed, the whole person feels a long-lost calm, and rarely opens her heart and says: "In the past, I was forced to be helpless, in the backyard of the deep palace, if I cared about everything, I wouldn't be able to live for a long time, but after coming to this world, everything is different from what I thought, and I am much more relaxed than before...... Maybe my life is too comfortable now, and I'm starting to become sentimental. β
She couldn't help but start laughing at herself, and she didn't know if it was good or bad.
Fu Jingshi's big hand covered it unconsciously, and the warmth of the palm passed through the slightly cool skin, and the wisps reached the bottom of the heart, warming Shu Wan's heart.
His tone was softer, and he said slowly: "We live our own little life, why bother with those on the side." β
"Little day?" Shu Wan whispered in her mouth, is he a person who lives a small life? used to be the emperor of the Dayong Dynasty, and now he is the richest man in Jiang City, Fu Jingshi, with such an identity, he doesn't look like a person who wants to live a "small life".
If she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she couldn't believe that these words came out of his Fu Jingshi's mouth.
