(xxxix) I can do without you
I have to say that Meng Qilan is really a chef who has been delayed by his medical career, and even the hot pot base can be adjusted as well as the one sold in the mall. I have long heard that when he lived alone in college, classmates would go to his apartment every once in a while to eat.
When Shen Bijun and Lu Lulu rushed over, they were attracted by the fragrance, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Xu Sinan and Wen Xian sitting at the dining table waiting to be fed......
"You're all here......" Lu Lulu had never been here, and she was still a little timid before entering the door, so she stretched out her head and looked around for a while. The brothers and sisters of the Meng family are completely unfamiliar faces to her, and they don't know whether they are friendly or not.
"Come in. Xu Sinan sat in front of the door, noticed her hesitation, got up and intimately dragged the chair next to him for her.
Lu Lulu nodded, and came in with a smile and a bowed head, "Excuse me." ”
"Yo, our hero is here. Meng Qilan came from the kitchen with a plate of mutton in one hand, and was relieved to see Shen Bijun and Lu Lulu, fortunately they were safe.
As soon as Lu Lulu sat down, she was embarrassed and teased by Meng Qilan's teasing, and blushed slightly.
Meng Lianxi also came out of the kitchen with a bottle of wine, and when he heard that Meng Qilan was not serious again, he kicked him lightly on his calf, "Brother, don't be poor, why didn't you know you were like this before?"
"Come here. Shen Bijun had just come out of the bathroom after washing her hands, and she was still shaking the water on her hands that had not dried, Wen Xian had already reserved a place for her, and he skillfully dragged the chair away, "Come and tell me about your heroic deeds." ”
Shen Bijun really talked eloquently as soon as she sat down, causing everyone to laugh during the banquet, Wen Xian just tried to put meat in her bowl, and occasionally silently handed over a glass of water when she was spicy tears, most of the time, he listened to her intently, and his eyes did not leave her for a moment.
After a hot pot, Shen Bijun was already unable to hold on, she touched her belly contentedly and then leaned on Wen Xian like a leper dog to coquettishly, "Mr. Wen, my good husband, I can't walk anyway, you carry me back." ”
"According to common sense, I carry you, won't you press out what you eat?" Wen Xian stretched out his big hand and pulled Shen Bijun's head away.
Shen Bijun actually restored the scene Wen Xian said in his mind, and then covered his ears unbearably, "You are so disgusting." ”
"That's it. He got up again and cleaned up the table.
"I've never seen you so diligent at home. Shen Bijun reluctantly got up, pouted and was not convinced, and casually brought two plates and followed him into the kitchen.
Xu Sinan also got up to help everyone clean up together, during which he and Lu Lulu accidentally wanted to serve the same plate, they both retracted their hands awkwardly, and immediately put down the plate and went to get the other.
Lu Lulu felt very uncomfortable in such an atmosphere, biting her lip, and secretly glanced up at Xu Sinan, who was focused on cleaning up, her eyes were erratic, "Director Xu......"
When Xu Sinan heard her words, he smiled softly, and kept his hands clean up without stopping, "It's okay to call me Xu Sinan." ”
"Xu Sinan," she called solemnly, because she rarely called his name to his face, "then what are your next plans?"
"Just get out of here. Xu Sinan's voice was very small, but fortunately, Lu Lulu could hear it.
He is a canary who has been locked up in the cage for too long, and the path he has taken has been carefully paved for him by the Xu family, and he has not even thought about what he should live for so many years.
"I want to go to a far, far away place where no one knows me and no one I know, and everything starts all over again and lives my own life. ”
When he said this, his eyes were full of anticipation, and the things he didn't even dare to think about before can now be in his life planning, which is really unaccustomed.
Lu Lulu was really happy for him, she comfortably cleaned up the rest of the plates, and didn't say a word to him again.
After simply cleaning up and saying goodbye to each other, they parted ways.
On the way home, Wen Xian always seemed to be preoccupied, and no matter how Shen Bijun dragged him, he was absent-minded as if he had lost his soul.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" she simply stopped, and opened her arms to block Wen Xian's way.
Wen Xian stopped, looked at her condescendingly, tilted his head and touched his chin, and sighed incredulously, "Why aren't you worried at all?"
"Worried, worried, what are you worried about, will you get fat if you eat too much?" Shen Bijun was puzzled, pinched his face, he was not fat, but there was a little meat, and it was quite comfortable to pinch.
"Alas," he sighed helplessly, and as soon as he reached out, he could skillfully grab her elbow and drag her on, "You don't worry about Xu Sinan's life or death at all?"
Shen Bijun has always thought that tiger poison is not enough to eat children, even if the old man Xu is really angry enough to escape from marriage, then he should regret it after losing Xu Sinan, and then it is best to cry bitterly and not think about tea and dinner, and finally look away to welcome Xu Sinan home, instead of really attacking his own grandson.
"Don't scare me, it's so scary. Shen Bijun's back was chilled by Wen Xian's question, and Xu Sinan's hundred ways to die even appeared in his mind...... "Bah, no, no, no!"
"You. He really couldn't do anything with her, so he let go of her elbow, and his hand gradually slipped down her forearm to hers, and then held her tightly and led her home. originally wanted her to be pragmatic, but she turned out to be more and more unbounded.
Wen Xian's worries are not unreasonable, and now more than a dozen media in the city have reported the news of Xu Sinan's escape from marriage, and even successfully overtook "a popular female star staying at a wife's mansion at night" to make headlines in the entertainment sector within an hour......
The most annoying thing in this accident is to say that the Li family who was released from the pigeon, how can the Li family say that they also have a head and face in this city, their baby daughter was actually thrown at the scene on the wedding day, and the man obviously had a planned and premeditated escape from the marriage, how could they stand this kind of humiliation?
In the entire wedding hall, only the people of the Li family were left cursing and blaming the Xu family fiercely, and it was a mess for a while, but Li Qingfang was surprisingly quiet at this time, she kept tensing herself, holding the bouquet of pink roses tightly in both hands, dragging the long white wedding dress and sitting silently on the ground, without saying a word, without even blinking her eyes, staring at the wedding ring that Xu Sinan had not had time to put on her, and there was no reaction to what they had done.
"Fang Fang, Fang Fang, let's go back, we won't get married!" Mrs. Li couldn't hide her anger, she couldn't stand it anymore, Li Qingfang still had illusions about Xu Sinan, and she cruelly stepped forward to pick up the ring on the table and was about to throw it away.
"Mom, Mom, I beg you, I beg you not to throw it. The tight string was finally broken, and Li Qingfang went crazy and knelt on the ground and hugged Chen Yuan's thighs and begged her, "I beg you, okay." ”
She begged and desperately reached for the ring box, but the bouquet inadvertently fell to the ground, the delicate pink rose was too fragile, and the petals were scattered all over the ground, just like her own heart, broken and could no longer be spelled.
Chen Yuan couldn't resist her daughter's pleading, she watched her daughter kneeling on the ground crying hoarsely, and finally couldn't bear it, handed over the ring box to her, and turned around to secretly wipe her tears, this is the person she has been a baby for more than 20 years, she didn't expect to fall into this unbearable appearance, how can she not be heartbroken.
"What to cry and cry, you know to cry all day long. Although Li Guoxiong felt sorry for his daughter, he couldn't let go of his face, and when he scolded him, the whole hall suddenly became quiet. Now he must give an explanation to the Xu family, "I told you a long time ago that if you force him to get married, you can only be a lowly person, and now you still have the face to cry." ”
Li Qingfang was most afraid of his father's scolding in the past, but at this time, he still reflexively only dared to bite his lip and sobbed silently, and the whole person sat on the ground deflated, not daring to make a sound to be heard by him again.
"What do you say the child is doing!" Chen Yuan hurriedly squatted down and hugged Li Qingfang, her heart was dripping blood, how could she bear to blame her daughter anymore, suddenly she pointed at Xu Xiang and Shen Heng who were at a loss for what to do on the side with emotion, and kept attacking them, "It's all their fault, teaching such a good son, and they are as shameless as them!"
"Chen Yuan, you're enough. Shen Heng hurriedly covered Xu Xiang's ears to prevent her from hearing those unbearable words, "Originally, Xiao Nan didn't really want to get married, you forced him step by step." ”
When he said this, he almost always stared at Old Man Xu who was silent, staring at the person who knew the inside story best. In fact, long before the wedding was decided, he overheard what the old man said to Xu Sinan, "After threatening Junjun and using Xu Xiang to threaten him, what do you think of Xiao Nan?"
After so many years in the Xu family, Shen Heng had long been fed up, no matter what, he thought that as long as he worked hard for the Xu family and devoted himself to Xu Xiang, one day the old man Xu would accept him, but he never thought that the old man not only turned a blind eye, but also did not let go of Xu Sinan, who really had the blood of the Xu family, for the first time, he accused the old man so loudly, and his legs were weak, "You have no feelings at all." ”
"Dad?" Xu Xiang suddenly felt a buzzing in her brain, she pushed Shen Heng's hand away, and walked in front of the old man step by step, her voice trembled, "What do you think of us?"
"What should be what?" Old Man Xu finally spoke, but this calm tone made people shudder, his gloomy aura was too powerful, and people were afraid to approach, "What do you think you are, the young master and wife of the Xu family?"
He still spoke in a cold tone, even to his own daughter.
Then he walked slowly around everyone on his crutches to the center of the stage, leaving them all underneath, and he just loved the feeling of looking down on everyone.
"You all see clearly, you are nothing without me, you can leave the Xu family at any time if you want to. The old man found a chair and sat down, and the people who were waiting around him immediately came over and took the crutches and waited aside, and he continued, "Guoxiong Chen Yuan, don't worry, Qingfang is still a member of my Xu family, no one can change this, I will get Xiao Nan back." Our two families are still in-laws. It's Xiao Nan who is not sensible, and as an apology, our Xu family is willing to divide half of the enterprise under the name of Qingfang. ”
"That's what you said. Li Guoxiong was skeptical at first, but half of the company's attractive conditions, he still decisively agreed, he knew very well that Old Man Xu was a skilled person, and the most important thing was that many people in the Xu family were lining up.
"Really, can Xu Sinan and I still be together?" Li Qingfang burst into tears and laughed for a while, grabbing Chen Yuan's arm and shaking it vigorously, for fear that he was hallucinating just now, "Mom, is it true?"
She was really too humble at this time.
"It's really, really. Chen Yuan took out a tissue and wiped Li Qingfang's tears, "You, just wait with peace of mind." ”
"Dad......" Xu Xiang wanted to say something, Shen Heng immediately stepped forward to stop her, he secretly shook his head at her, signaling her not to hit the hard one, just hit the stone with an egg.
"Let's go. He had no choice but to leave here with Xu Xiang.
No one could lift the curtain to see what kind of conspiracy it was, and everyone began to dodge, to escape, to fight to the end, to be selfish, to be dissatisfied.
Xu Sinan returned to Meng Qilan's downstairs alone, that is, Shen Bijun's original house, and sat quietly on the sofa in a daze for a long time, not even daring to open the curtains, for fear that the Xu family's eyeliner was waiting for him to throw himself into the net.
"Knock knock!"
A quick knock on the door made Xu Sinan's heart tighten, he tried to calm himself, and then carefully walked over and looked at the cat's eye, it turned out to be Lu Lulu.
"Why are you here? I thought the Xu family had come so quickly. Xu Sinan hurriedly opened the door and let Lu Lulu in, and quickly locked the door.
Lu Lulu put the big bags and small bags of things on the coffee table for him, and didn't even dare to look at him, "These are some daily necessities that I bought for you in the supermarket downstairs, you always have to live for a while, and it is inconvenient for you to go down." ”
She just couldn't rest assured of him, obviously she made up her mind to walk out of the community for a long time, but she still ran back to the supermarket to buy him a lot of things that he didn't know if he could use, and found such an excuse to come back and look at him again.
"Thank you, Lulu," Xu Sinan has understood her intentions by now, but the more Lu Lulu treats him like this, the more guilty he feels, she is such a good girl, it is not worth wasting time for him at all, even if he hesitates again and again, he is still determined to be this evil person, "I'm sorry... I..."
"Oops, I remembered that my mother was still waiting for me to go back on a blind date, saying that I was free today, and I... I'm leaving, you're busy. Lu Lulu immediately interrupted him, looked at the time and pretended to be busy...
Of course she knows what he's going to say next, the old stalk of the TV series, it's nothing more than I'm sorry I can't accept you and I'm sorry you're a better fit?
The loved ones never understand that they don't need to apologize at all.
"Lu Lulu, I know you don't want to hear it," anyway, Xu Sinan also hoped that she could listen very clearly, and at this moment he seemed to be able to understand what Shen Bijun's mood was when he rejected him, "But I still have to say, I thank you very much, but only thank you." ”
Hurting others, we don't mean to.
"Xu Sinan, I can live without you, it's not a big deal, I'll declare this crush now, it's completely over......" This sentence Lu Lulu has repeated thousands of times in her heart, she always thinks about when she will say it proudly, but always like now, the words are still swallowed back raw, and can only be replaced with a sentence, "You're welcome, I've been working with you for so long, and I'm also doing my good friend a favor." Xu Sinan... Goodbye!"
She went to open the door in a panic, she was really afraid that Xu Sinan would accidentally see her in tears, she opened the door several times before opening the door, and this time she really walked without looking back.
