Chapter Twenty-Three: But I Really Didn't Expect It
"Cheng Yun, did you talk to that kid from the Xu family some time ago... Xu Hanche, are you getting a little close? ”
Putting down the chopsticks, I sighed silently in my heart, revealing an innocent and confused look: "I had a little contact with him a few years ago, and I have almost no contact in recent years, is something wrong?" ”
In the afterglow, He Chengyun grinded his teeth silently, as if he wanted to say something, but finally bit his lip and endured it.
I silently sighed in my heart, He Chengyun is really benevolent to He Chengyun's sister.
A girl, her fiancé is the lover of her dreams, and the two are about to tie the knot happily, but her sister comes out and intervenes, causing her fiancé to have no love for her, and their marriage is shaky.
It is estimated that the girl, even if she doesn't tear this sister apart with her own hands, will sue in front of her parents and complain in front of others, making this girl who snatches love with a knife infamous.
But from beginning to end, He Chengyun never described He Chengyun's actions in front of any elders, and even suggested to Mrs. He that his sister should replace him and fulfill the marriage contract with his dream lover.
Truth be told, I was a little touched – what a touching sisterhood it is.
Mrs. He seemed to anticipate my kind and muddy answer, and only sighed, and her voice was soft: "Your sister's marriage contract with Xu Hanche may be canceled." Chengyun, we're in my own house now, and I won't hide it. Is the girl Xu Hanche likes you? ”
For a while, I didn't expect Mrs. He to be so straightforward, so I added a bowl of soup to myself and thought quickly.
The He family and his wife are not easy to fool, even if I don't say it now, the things I did will be even more disgraceful when I am found out in the future. Lying is like borrowing usury, telling a lie requires a thousand lies, and it may not be good. Life is hard to come by, and I don't want to waste my time on something like that.
So I decided to confess.
"yes, I'm sorry."
He Chengyun on the side didn't seem to expect me to say it so bluntly, his hand shook, and he threw his chopsticks on the ground.
Mrs. He didn't seem to expect me to admit it directly, so she was stunned for a moment before continuing to ask, "When did it happen?" ”
I was already planning to break the jar and reply, "Just a few years ago." ”
Mrs. He: "Would you mind telling me how he fell in love with you?" ”
I thought about it for a moment, and then added a 'It's hard to talk about, but I have to say', and said bitterly, "It should be my fault." ”
He Chengyun's hand as soon as he picked up the chopsticks trembled, and the chopsticks fell to the ground with a click. She struggled for a long time and went to the kitchen to get a new pair.
Mrs. He may have guessed something before, but she didn't expect He Chengyun to directly admit this responsibility: "Your fault? ”
The head of the Xu family comforted: "Chengyun, you don't have to take any responsibility on yourself, that kid likes you is his own business, and it has nothing to do with you." ”
I lowered my head and showed a look of shame: "I, I did, I had a good impression of him. ”
The Xu family and his wife gasped, and He Chengyun's eyes widened and he looked at me in disbelief.
I said with a 'I admit it, I regret it' expression, and said in a sad tone: "But at that time, I really didn't know that Xu Hanche was my sister's fiancé. ”。
There was silence in the restaurant for a moment.
