114. Scandal
The tool for cooking dumplings is an electric cup that my brother bought in a small supermarket outside. Because the container is so small, you can only cook half a bag at a time. So it took four or five minutes to get all the two bags of quick-frozen dumplings. Shen Ruochu actually doesn't like to eat stuffed staple food, she just likes to join in the fun. So I symbolically ate two and then stopped using chopsticks. Jing Yan saw that her lips were dry and a little peely, so she put some dumpling soup in the lunch box and handed it to her.
Shen Ruochu took two sips, felt that the temperature was a little hot, and exhaled. Then he suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at Shen Xingzhi and asked, "By the way, Erguang and Aunt Tan are upstairs, should we go up to pay New Year's greetings?" "Supposedly she should have gone to see it a long time ago. But who would have thought that something would go wrong halfway, and she would also become a disabled person.
Jing Yan on the side couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and a trace of gloom flashed across Jun's face.
Shen Ruochu turned sideways to face him, naturally not seeing the expression on his face. But Shen Xingzhi was facing Jing Yan, taking in his reaction. Quietly glancing over his face, Shen Xingzhi stuffed a dumpling into his mouth and chewed it before answering Shen Ruochu's question, "No need." Jiahui accompanied his mother to the hospital the day before yesterday. ”
"Huh?!" Shen Ruochu was slightly surprised, "I was discharged from the hospital." ”
"Hmm." Shen Xingzhi nodded, "His mother wasn't very sick. I was not discharged from the hospital during the Chinese New Year, and I really made this place my home! After finishing eating, I ate the last dumpling of the meal, got up and went to the bathroom to brush the lunch box.
Shen Ruochu suddenly felt that the feeling in his heart was strange, and he couldn't tell what was going on. The dumpling soup in the lunch box was already a little cold, and she drank it in small sips with her head down. But I didn't know that my silent frowning appearance fell on someone's eyes at this time, but it was so dazzling.
His woman is sitting next to him at the moment, but she is thinking about another man in her heart! Jing Yan only felt that the raging fire was rushing to the top of his head. Instead, it can't have a seizure.
Secretly swallowing a vicious breath, he interrupted her thoughts with a loud voice, "Ruochu." ”
"Huh?" Shen Ruochu turned around when he heard the sound and looked at him suspiciously, "What's the matter?" ”
"Nothing. I just wanted to ask if you're tired. The tone was gentle and considerate, and there was no displeasure on his face.
"It's fine." Shen Ruochu just said. Father Shen paced over from the side of the bed, "You two don't stay here, go home!" ”
Shen Ruochu frowned, and was about to refuse, when she heard Mrs. Shen call her slightly weakly, "Xiao Chu, come here." Mom is talking to you about something. ”
"Oh." She answered, stuffed the lunch box to Jing Yan, and farts to the hospital bed.
Mrs. Shen actually doesn't have anything important to explain. It's nothing more than asking the girl to go home and pick up her underwear and personal belongings and send them over tomorrow. Shen Ruochu took out his mobile phone and recorded them one by one in the notepad.
When it was time to preserve, Shen Xingzhi also brushed the pots and pans and came out of the bathroom.
Father Shen glanced at him, "Okay, you will go too." ”
"Hmm." Shen Xingzhi responded, but he didn't refuse. Walk straight to the edge of the couch, pick up your coat and put it on.
Over there, Jing Yan had already put on her coat, and she had Shen Ruochu's down jacket in her hand, just waiting for her to come over so that the eldest lady could get dressed.
The last three left the ward together.
Shen Ruochu wanted to fetch things for Mrs. Shen, so naturally he wanted to go back to his parents' house. When she was about to arrive at the parking lot, she originally wanted to tell Jing Yan to let him go back by himself, and she would just take Shen Xingzhi's car. Who knew that before he could say anything, Brother Teabi took the lead in saying to Jing Yan: "My tires are not on snow chains, so I won't drive, sit on yours." ”
"Okay." Jing Yan nodded slightly, opened the door of the co-pilot seat for Shen Ruochu, and waited for her to sit firmly before closing the door and bypassing the front of the car, and sat in the driver's seat to start the car.
When the car drove out of the hospital gate, Shen Ruochu's mobile phone vibrated twice. When I took it out, it was a text message from Tan Jiahui, with only four words: Happy Spring Festival!
She dialed his phone casually. However, it quickly hung up. Dial again, hang up again. Shen Ruochu was slightly distracted, and finally replied with four words: Happy New Year! After thinking about it, I followed the second one: Erguang, are you unhappy about something?
There was no reply for a long time. The snow-white little teeth bit her lower lip, she stared at the phone, and the unsteady feeling in her heart welled up again.
Jing Yan looked at her sullenly from the rearview mirror, couldn't help but purse her thin lips, and the resolute line of her jaw tightened a little.
"Don't play with your phone in the car! Hurt eyes. As he spoke, he snatched the phone directly from her hand with one free hand and confiscated it for the time being.
"What are you doing!" Shen Ruochu was unprepared, one hand was not very good, and he could only watch as the phone was snatched away by him and put into his pocket. Then I thought he was driving, and he couldn't rush over to grab it. Finally, he reluctantly snorted, turned his head to look out the window, and ignored him.
Jing Yan doesn't need her to deal with it at this time. With his hands on the steering wheel, his bright dark eyes staring at the road, he was preoccupied with driving. The snow in the evening was not small, and the road was not cleaned in a timely manner as usual. It is difficult to travel in snow, and even if he is a good driver, he has to deal with such road conditions carefully.
After a short period of effort, Shen Ruochu finally couldn't bear the loneliness. However, it was not Jing Yan who harassed, but Brother Tease.
"Brother, I always feel that Erguang seems to have encountered something recently. Do you know the situation? ”
Shen Xingzhi has been leaning on the back seat and closing his eyes to recuperate. Hearing Shen Ruochu talking to himself, he lifted his eyelids and glanced at her, then closed them again, and then said slowly: "It's something at his house." ”
"What's really going on in his house?!" Shen Ruochu was surprised, "What's the matter?" ”
"Nothing. Don't ask, I won't tell you if you do! ”
"What a person!" Shen Ruochu snorted coldly and turned his head, but his heart was extremely itchy with doubts.
And her doubts were answered a week later.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the entertainment edition of the first issue of the new year, the most authoritative and widely circulated newspaper in City B, "XX Express", reported only one thing on the entire page...... That is, Tan Yueli, the founder of Falai Heavy Industries, came out of the wall, and his marriage with his original wife broke down, and he will go to court.
When Shen Ruochu saw this news, he was in the chairman's office of the Huajing Group building.
Jing Yan said that he was on indefinite leave. But in the end, he ran such a big business, it was impossible for him to be a hands-off shopkeeper and not care about anything at all.
For example, today, Shen Ruochu's arm should be removed from the plaster. The two of them had planned to go to the hospital early in the morning. As a result, with a phone call on the road, Jing Yan changed the route with a turn of the steering wheel and drove the car to the company.
It wasn't until the car pulled under the office building that he explained to her, "I'm in a bit of a hurry to have a high-level meeting." I'll take you to the hospital in the afternoon! Then he explained to his secretary and left her alone in the office, where she had not appeared for two hours now.
She used to come to Jing Yan's office a lot, but the things inside never moved. After playing the mobile phone game for a while, I felt bored, so I flipped through the newspaper boringly, who knew that I saw a surprise! Oh, no. It's only fright, not joy!
The newspaper is full of pictures and texts, and the stories are more vivid than the stories. is not only Tan Yueli's affair, but even the history of how he and his wife met.
Shen Ruochu took a cursory look, and in addition to being incredulous, he was still incredulous. She also heard about the love history of the two elders of the Tan family back then, and it can be regarded as a half-life love between the couple and the couple. Daddy Tan is having an affair! Can she still believe that there is love in this world anymore?!
Whoever makes it up must be made up!
But whether it's made up or not, as soon as such news breaks out, the Tan family must be in a hurry.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly took out her mobile phone and dialed Tan Jiahui's mobile phone number. This time it wasn't a hang-up, but no one answered. Shen Ruochu was so anxious that she couldn't do it, and when the mechanical female voice sounded, she pressed it off and dialed it again. This was repeated several times, but Tan Jiahui still could not be contacted, but Jing Yan came back from the meeting.
The office was too spacious, and Shen Ruochu was so nervous about Tan Jiahui that he didn't even notice him entering the door. It wasn't until Jing Yan's tall figure stood in front of him, blocking some of the light, that he didn't realize his existence. She glanced up at him, but ignored him. Continue to dial the phone.
Jing Yan lowered her eyes and glanced at the newspaper spread out on the coffee table, and then her eyes fell on her little face full of worry and nervousness, "Call Tan Jiahui." It is a declarative sentence, and the indifferent tone makes it difficult to hear the joy and anger.
"Hmm." Shen Ruochu hurriedly responded. I heard a prompt inside that no one answered, and hung up the replay again.
Jing Yan neither stopped her nor snatched her phone this time. He bypassed the coffee table and sat down on the sofa next to her, while reaching out to gently smooth Shen Ruochu's frowning brows, he said slowly in a very firm tone: "Don't call, Tan Jiahui won't answer your phone." ”
Shen Ruochu rolled his eyes and finally gave him a straight look. The tone was slightly rushed, with dissatisfaction, "How do you know?!" ”
"Because I'm a man too!" Jing Yan hooked her lips, but her smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, "Ruochu, any man would not be willing to let the woman he likes see his disgraceful side." Now that there is such a scandal in the Tan family, of course he will not be willing to see you. Moreover, the last person he wants to see is you! ”
Shen Ruochu's complexion changed slightly.
And Jing Yan didn't seem to see the change in her expression, and casually picked up a strand of hair on her shoulder and wrapped it around her fingertips.
"But...... We're friends after all! After a while, she finally held back a sentence.
"So what?" Jing Yan raised her eyebrows and asked, and without waiting for her to answer, she continued: "Tan Jiahui is a proud person. The last thing he needed at this time was comfort and inquiries from all sides. Whether it is malicious or benign! And he likes you, that's an undeniable fact! ”
