Chapter 91: Mixed Tastes
The hospital is not far from the restaurant, because it is a weekend, it took some time to queue for registration, and when I came out of the hospital, it was already forty minutes later.
The doctor said that because my tongue and upper and lower jaw were scalded with several finger-sized blood blisters, I couldn't force my speech for the time being, otherwise the blood blisters would rupture due to friction, and my mouth would be more painful.
On the way back, Duan Ruochen kept blaming himself with apologetic guilt: "It's all because I didn't remind you in time, and I kept urging you to eat." β
I didn't dare to speak, so I had to wave my hand again and again.
"I just asked the kitchen to boil some mung bean soup, and by the way, I gave you a lotus root soup, you can take it back to school later!"
I nodded my head in thanks, and I couldn't ask any questions, so I swallowed.
"You're trying to ask me about my relationship with that restaurant!" Duan Ruochen seemed to see my doubt, and said lightly: "Usually when there is no class, I will work there and practice cooking skills." β
I nodded again, relieved the doubts in my heart, and felt hunger and sleepiness attack at the same time, so I simply closed my eyes, and I didn't expect to fall asleep after a while.
When I woke up again, I saw that it was already dark, I looked around blankly, and found that Duan Ruochen's car had been parked at the back door of Big B, and I was lying on Duan Ruochen's car, the seat back had been flattened at some point, but Duan Ruochen was not in the driver's seat.
I got up again and looked around, and saw that Duan Ruochen was leaning against the back of the car alone and spitting smoke rings, I opened the car door and knocked on the body again, hoping that Duan Ruochen could hear.
"Shen'er, are you awake?" Duan Ruochen immediately turned around when he heard the voice, and when he saw that I woke up, he threw away his cigarette butt and walked towards me, "How do you feel now?" β
"Much better!" took out his mobile phone and typed two words for Duan Ruochen to see.
"That's good!" Duan Ruochen nodded, and after a while, he pointed to a figure under the street lamp not far from the back door and said to me, "Go over!" He seems to have been waiting for you for a long time. β
I followed Duan Ruochen's line of sight and saw that the person standing under the lamp was Situ Yunzhe, and somehow, my heart was pounding again, and it seemed to be mixed with a slight feeling of pain.
After typing the word 'thank you' on my phone, I got out of the car and slowly walked towards Situ Yunzhe.
"Shen'er, why are you only coming back now?" When Situ Yunzhe heard the footsteps, he immediately looked up at me, his eyes immediately changed from anxiety to surprise, he put his arm around me and asked worriedly, "The phone can't get through again, and I'm in a hurry." β
I smiled, and then took Situ Yunzhe's arm and walked towards the second female building.
"Shen'er, I'm worried about you!" We soon arrived in front of the second female building, and Situ Yunzhe saw that I had been silent, so he emphasized in a little anxious.
I ignored him and continued to walk forward, and as soon as I took two steps, my hand was grabbed by Situ Yunzhe, and I couldn't move for a moment.
I had to turn around and look at Situ seriously, there was clearly a deep worry in his eyes, he was right, he loved me seriously, but since he loved me, why did he refuse to marry me so firmly, even his mother's urging was useless?
I sighed, stepped forward, gently stroked his handsome features, and then smiled and pointed to my own mouth, the laughter was full of apologies, I know, mixed with bitterness.
"Shen'er, why is there blood blisters in your mouth? How did you get it? Have you seen a doctor? When Situ Yunzhe saw the miserable situation in my mouth, he was shocked and asked a series of questions.
I quickly shook my head at him and said it was okay.
"Shen'er, I know you're angry with me, but you can't take your body seriously, you ran so fast in the afternoon, I didn't keep up with you, and I couldn't find your people, do you know how worried and uncomfortable I am?"
I bowed my head apologetically, thinking about my actions that afternoon, it was indeed a bit excessive.
"Shen'er, I said on the phone with my mommy that I don't want to get married, because I'm not sure if you want to marry me, and I'm also reflecting on whether I can give you a lifetime of happiness, I have seen too many unhappy families, after they get married, they will lose their original romance because of the shackles of children, because of the participation of firewood, rice, oil and salt, and because of the participation of the two families, which will lead to endless quarrels, so, I hope we can consider these carefully and calmly."
I nodded and typed a few words on my phone: But Ah Zhe, isn't love all happy when you enter marriage?
"No, there are happy and unhappy marriages, happy and unhappy, but even if love is full of difficulties and obstacles, as long as two people love each other, then they are happy, I say this, do you understand?"
I went on to call: So all you want is love, not marriage? But what to do? Ah Zhe, I have no relatives when I am very young, so I have already regarded you as my relatives, as a part of my life, I very much hope to marry you, if I get married, I will definitely do my best to integrate into your family, I will be very filial to my in-laws, never quarrel with them, I will definitely be a good wife, a good daughter-in-law.
"I know and firmly believe that with your intelligence and kindness, you will definitely be able to integrate into my family." Seeing that I had wronged myself so much, Situ Yunzhe stroked my cheek even more distressedly and said, "Shen'er, if I can't give you the best, if I can't accompany you for a lifetime, I'd rather not get married." β
I was so anxious that I screamed, and finally I simply cried and picked up my phone and typed again.
"Not good, not good! You are the best for me, I just want to marry you and stay with you for the rest of my life. β
"Shen'er, what's wrong with you today, you seem to be very stubborn! Why do you keep thinking about getting married? Situ Yunzhe scratched my nose and hugged me into his arms with a wry smile.
I hugged Situ Yunzhe's waist tightly, tears flowed out of my eyes, and all kinds of feelings such as grievance, anxiety, pain, and panic hit my heart together, and I felt like I was about to lose him. I don't think I was able to convince him to change his mind about marriage, so I had to work hard.
Just when I was feeling mixed in my heart, I suddenly saw Duan Ruochen standing not far away looking at us, he was still holding the food box packed in that restaurant in his hand, and his expression was obscure.
I wiped away my tears, embarrassedly pushed Situ Yunzhe away, and looked at Duan Ruochen steadily.
"Shen'er, I'm sorry, your lunch box has fallen, I specially sent it to you." Duan Ruochen slowly walked in the shade of a tree and stopped, I still couldn't see his expression, so I had to silently walk over and take the bag in his hand.
"This bag is scald medicine, this bag is mung bean soup and lotus root soup, drink a little when you're hungry, the canteen has a spicy taste, don't go, I'll send you some food tomorrow." Duan Ruochen pointed to the contents of the bag and said to me.
I had to nod my head and take the lunch box again.
But I thought in my heart, in this case, Duan Ruochen really shouldn't appear in front of me and Situ Yunzhe, but he did send me medicine and lunch boxes, and the medicine was to be taken before going to bed.
I think it's because I'm thinking too much!
"I'm leaving, you rest early." Duan Ruochen nodded at Situ Yunzhe again, and prepared to leave.
"It turns out that Shen'er has been with you today, no wonder I waited for an afternoon and didn't wait for her, but you give Shen'er so much food, aren't you worried that my Shen'er will gain weight?" At this time, Situ Yunzhe suddenly spoke up, stopping Duan Ruochen's footsteps.
"That's Shen'er's business, I think it's best for her to eat whenever she wants, she doesn't need to deliberately restrain herself, even if she eats a double chin, it's beautiful, and she doesn't need to deliberately lose weight or anything." Duan Ruochen simply stopped and turned to stare at me.
"You-" Duan Ruochen's words seemed to step on Situ Yunzhe's sore spot, his face changed slightly, but in fact, he also stepped on my sore spot.
In the past few years, in order to echo Situ Yunzhe's aesthetics, I have been trying to restrain my appetite, and I have also deeply experienced the hardships of those who have been restraining their appetite for decades as a public figure, and I have complained to Situ Yunzhe countless times, but they were all rejected by his domineering, but every time I see him introduce 'this is my girlfriend' to others with great glory, and when I see his friends looking at us with envy, my vanity is greatly satisfied, and I think he may be right.
Now, after suddenly interpreting a completely different definition of beauty from another person's mouth, my heart was extremely shocked, and at that moment, I actually felt that perhaps, Duan Ruochen was the one who understood me.
"Situβ" Duan Ruochen ignored the turbulent waves in my eyes, he turned to Situ Yunzhe and said, "As a man, I have to remind you that about marriage proposals, men should always do, not let their beloved woman bring it up, I will do it all!" Hello for yourself! After Duan Ruochen finished speaking, he left me and Situ Yunzhe, turned around and walked in the direction of the male four.
"Shen'er, do you think so too?" After Situ Yunzhe waited for Duan Ruochen to leave, he turned around and stared at me closely.
I immediately lowered my head, as if I had done something wrong, and I didn't dare to look at Situ Yunzhe.
"Tell me, if what he says is right, then, I'll change it!" Situ Yunzhe almost gritted his teeth.
I hurriedly tugged at Situ Yunzhe's sleeve and wanted to say to him, 'No, you're not wrong, and haven't we all been here like this for the past few years?' So you don't need to listen to Duan Ruochen. But when his mouth opened, it hurt, and he could only turn around in a hurry.
"Shen'er, Duan Ruochen's words suddenly reminded me, it turned out that not only Chen Chen saw my harshness towards you, but now even Duan Ruochen has come to fight for you." Situ Yunzhe still blamed himself unrelentingly, but my heart was like a torment, and I even blamed Duan Ruochen for many things.
"Ah Zhe, you don't have to pay attention to Duan Ruochen, he is talking nonsense at all." In a hurry, I anxiously picked up my phone and started typing, because I was in a messy mood, so I was also a little incoherent, "Moreover, I also happened to meet him today." β
