Chapter 61: Wu Kai's love
When Ling Ruoxi arrived, Wu Kai had already fallen asleep on the table.
Seeing Wu Kai like this, Ling Ruoxi was also stunned for a while. I don't think she can understand how that sunny and hearty boy tossed himself into the way he is now.
It has been almost three years since they were separated, and during this period, they occasionally asked me about Wu Kai's situation, and I have always avoided reporting to her.
If I hadn't seen Wu Kai's situation so bad this time, I wouldn't have told her. But I really can't help Wu Kai get back on his feet, so I can only hand over my last hope to her.
The story starts after Wu Kai's first entrepreneurial failure, and he finally got out of the shadow of failure and began his so-called precipitation and self-cultivation.
The scale of his bunch of "You Are Not Brave, Who Will Be Strong for You" is growing day by day, and entrepreneurship, investment, and management are often on his lips.
It wasn't long after this that he met Ling Ruoxi. In that period of time, which Wu Kai called the darkest days before dawn, Ling Ruoxi's appearance was undoubtedly a dazzling light, illuminating Wu Kai's gloomy life.
According to Wu Kai's description, in someone's sunny afternoon when the wind is sunny and the sky is clear. Wu Kai met her true daughter for the first time in the roast meat shop at the door.
The small shop is not big, and a Chaoshan couple leads a family to run it.
The reason why Wu Kai frequented the small shop despite the wailing of his wallet was that he wanted to learn the secret of their success from the Chaoshan merchants.
When I was led here by Wu Kai for the first time, and then listened to him whisper to me about this, I almost didn't spray all the soup sent by the boss on Wu Kai's face.
I can't imagine what he could learn from a meal here. What's more, his current madness seems to be getting worse and worse.
When the proprietress sent the super luxury single package described by Wu Kai, I couldn't help but feel sour.
A simple roast platter, with some pickled side dishes made by the boss, and served with a soup. That's it, and it's also something that Wu Kai usually doesn't want to consume.
He invested all the money he had on him, leaving only the most basic survival guarantee for himself.
In the words of a master he didn't know from which he learned it, making money with money is the way for a wise person to make money, and creating wealth with labor is the most efficient way.
Thinking about the fact that life has forced the high-spirited and carefree Wu Kai to the current situation, I feel very uncomfortable.
But Wu Kai is very happy about all this, and even enjoys this kind of life. Every day, I huddle in the company's cramped canteen with the eldest sisters in the workshop, eating all kinds of boiled vegetables provided by the company for free.
I don't know what he really thinks in his heart, but seeing that he seems to be full of chicken blood every day, I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
can only pay attention to him secretly, correct him at any time, and escort him.
And the two old people in their hometown in Sichuan also called me from time to time to ask me to pay more attention to him, worried that he would not be able to take care of himself and cause any trouble.
On the afternoon when Wu Kai met Ling Ruoxi, Wu Kai, who had just finished countless rounds of fighting with his pile of precious iron bumps in the workshop, missed the meal in the cafeteria.
He could only soothe his shriveled wallet while walking towards the roast shop at the door, and asked for what he called an ultra-luxury single package as usual.
Then he sat bored and played with his mobile phone, and the glass door at the door was pushed open, and Wu Kai instinctively raised his eyelids and glanced at it.
At this glance, Wu Kai completely fell, fell in love, and couldn't extricate himself.
Ling Ruoxi, who was dressed in a white dress, had skin like clotted fat, temperament like orchid, and there was a dusty and fairy charm against the backdrop of the sunset.
Wu Kaiwen told me about the way she looked when she first met Ling Ruo, and I almost didn't arrest him to take a CT scan to see if he was taken by aliens.
He, who has never put together an eight-hundred-word essay, actually uses so many adjectives to describe a girl in one breath.
This also made me have a huge curiosity about Ling Ruoxi in his mouth, so much so that I raided his company countless times, but I didn't see him once.
made me wonder if this guy's brain was stimulated by something, so I had to make up a girl named Ling Ruoxi to come out and fool me.
When I heard the name, I already began to doubt the authenticity of it, the name is so similar to the heroine of a romantic drama that I don't think anyone would have such a name.
It wasn't until Wu Kai brought the real person to me that I had to believe that this kid's little sour words were indeed quite appropriate, and it seemed that the Chinese teacher's earnest teachings were not completely useless in him.
Ling Ruoxi did give me a feeling of lightness, and I no longer had half sympathy for Wu Kai's fall.
Ling Ruoxi and Yaoyao belong to two completely different beauties, Yaoyao is better in having three-dimensional facial features, which gives people a stronger visual impact. Ling Ruoxi is superior in temperament, with the gentleness and generosity unique to Jiangnan women, and intellectual grace.
At this time, half a year had passed since Wu Kai first met Ling Ruoxi.
In the past six months, Wu Kai relied on his outstanding skin and the spirit of dead skin and face that he didn't know where he learned, launched a crazy pursuit of Ling Ruoxi, and successfully hugged the beauty.
Looking at Ling Ruoxi, who was holding Wu Kai's arm and greeting us with a smile, I was really happy for Wu Kai, a bastard.
secretly gave him a thumbs up, thinking that this guy is really a blockbuster.
Ling Ruoxi's appearance, as Wu Kai said, brought light to his dark life. Of course, at the same time, it also caused him endless troubles.
Ling Ruoxi, a native of Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, graduated from Shanghai Jiao Tong University with a master's degree and is the financial director of Wu Kai's company next door.
Her parents are in business, her family is well-off, and she has outstanding appearance. Excellent learning and growth back, IQ and EQ dual quotient online, Wu Kai's description is 360 degrees of excellence without dead ends.
You don't have to think about it to know that there are many suitors, and Wu Kai can stand out from the many suitors and come out on top.
In addition to his outstanding appearance, but also because of his stalking for half a year, Ling Ruoxi saw a sincere, kind, and simple-minded Wu Kai.
Of course, Wu Kai was favored by Ling Ruoxi, and he was about to faint with excitement. Naturally, he also treats her as a treasure, obeys her words, and in my words, does his best to do what he can.
But his performance like this made Ling Ruoxi feel miserable. As far as she is concerned, she would like to see Wu Kai as a person with a full personality and independent thoughts.
Wu Kai lost his independence in this relationship because he cared too much, regarded himself as a vassal, and handed over all the initiative to Ling Ruoxi.
Similarly, he also handed over all the pressure to Ling Ruoxi. While Ling Ruoxi enjoyed his sweet protection, she had to tolerate his various childish actions.
He will always pay attention to Ling Ruoxi's dynamics, and will take the initiative to take all the responsibilities, and he will always guard against intruders who invade his "territory" as if he were guarding his own territory.
He voluntarily gave up his independence and autonomy in his relationship, and gave full play to his self-sacrificing dedication.
But the more he did that, the more worried I became.
If you've seen Wu Kai on the court, you've seen him turn a blind eye to the dozen or so love letters hidden on the table, and you've seen him use me as a shield to avoid girls' pursuits.
Then if you look at Wu Kai in front of Ling Ruoxi, you will know what this relationship has brought him.
He is no longer carefree, no longer sunny and cheerful, and has become cautious, even submissive. Ling Ruoxi also saw this in her eyes and was anxious in her heart, and asked me for help more than once.
It's a pity that she doesn't know that Wu Kai cares too much, so he has a weakness, a fetter, and a concern that he can't let go.
In order to be able to keep his love, he can only keep pleasing him, and thus lose himself.
All my consolations were deaf to him. In his eyes, as long as Ling Ruoxi was by his side, he could do anything. Not to mention losing himself, he didn't hesitate to lose himself.
Of course, he also knew very well how big the gap was between him and Ling Ruoxi. So he worked hard, and then exchanged all the money he earned back for all kinds of luxury goods that he himself called nameless.
In his opinion, Ling Ruoxi's suitors were his salary for a few months, so even if he couldn't be like them, he had to give everything he had.
At the same time, he was also working hard to improve himself to shorten the distance between him and Ling Ruoxi. He began to learn to cook, bake, learn musical instruments, and even went to a flower shop to learn flower arrangement.
Seeing him doing this tirelessly every day, Ling Ruoxi was both moved and distressed.
She wanted Wu Kai to stop his senseless flattery, wanted him to concentrate on being himself, and wanted to tell him that what she liked was the frank and cute, sunny and cheerful him.
But unfortunately, at this time, Wu Kai was immersed in the rules of the game he had set for himself, and he couldn't listen to anyone's words.
She could only let it go, but she ruthlessly confiscated Wu Kai's salary card.
Because the first thing this guy does when he gets his salary every month is to spend most of it and buy gifts for Ling Ruoxi.
Then Ling Ruoxi had to quietly take the things and return them, and he didn't dare to let him find out that the hardships of their love were really inhumane with outsiders.
One of the two people tried their best to please, and the other worked hard to maintain, although it was hard, the two of them were also happy.
I have to sigh, this is love, even if both people are very uncomfortable. But they are still trying to stick to it and desperately think about each other.
In fact, in every relationship, we often lose ourselves because we care too much.
We cared too much about each other's feedback to ourselves, messed up with ourselves, and finally failed in the end.
It's just that feelings never distinguish between right and wrong, whether they win or lose.
What we care about is feelings, attention and each other's concerns, and exclusive marks that belong only to each other.
It is the tenderness that is only given to the other party, the connivance and preference of the principle of right and wrong.
It's just that too much concern has given us bonds, worries and weaknesses, and a sweet burden.
For the sake of love, we have given up our self-perseverance, and there is no flexibility and retreat.
Every relationship is an all-or-nothing luxury bet, and the stake is the happiness of our life.
And this time, Wu Kai obviously didn't leave a way out for himself, he tried his best, just to protect his love.
It's just that this time he still paid too much hardship, and he was still clumsy and stubborn in learning and growing on the road of love in his own way.
When the two old men knew that their son had found a girlfriend, especially after seeing the photos of Ling Ruoxi sent by Wu Kai, they were so excited that they couldn't sleep in the dormitory for a few days.
Especially Aunt Xie, she gave Wu Kai a thousand instructions and told her how to get along with Ling Ruoxi.
Uncle Wu was more objective and calm, especially after I told him about the two of them, he was also worried.
But as a father, he didn't have much to teach Wu Kai, so he could only ask me to help convey his meaning.
He also hopes that Wu Kai can stick to his heart and work hard to improve himself, instead of using this way to keep love.
Wu Kai is immersed in his own dedication and sacrifice and can't extricate himself, and at the same time, he also has a higher standard and more obsession with success.
He made the same mistake as me, the love of unequal identity needs to be compensated for in other ways. And the way he made up for it was more humble, more paranoid and cruel than I had before.
I want to use my experience to tell him that all these so-called amends are useless. But in the face of Ling Ruoxi's 360-degree excellence, he has obviously lost the judgment that he should have to think calmly.
Their love affair began with Wu Kai's humble fawning and dedication, and ended with Ling Ruoxi's unbearable bearing.
Wu Kai carefully cared for their love, but at the same time, he fell into the trap he set for himself.
He was always on guard against every person of the opposite sex who approached Ling Ruoxi, for fear that this hard-won relationship would be snatched away.
Wu Kai was terrified every day, torturing himself to exhaustion, which also made Ling Ruoxi feel physically and mentally exhausted.
Finally, after Wu Kai accidentally discovered that Ling Ruoxi had accepted a gift from a suitor, the contradiction between them completely broke out, and this deformed and fragile relationship also came to an end.
That night, it was pouring rain, and Wu Kai braved the rain and sat in a car for three hours to rush to me. The hysterical outpouring of the pain caused by the loss of love also released all his grievances and unwillingness for a year and a half.
As a friend, I naturally feel sorry for Wu Kai. In this year-and-a-half-long relationship, he really has no reservations and gives everything he has.
But from a fair standpoint, from the very beginning, he chose to water their love flowers with the wrong nutrition, and it is reasonable that the flowers will wither in the end.
While feeling sorry for them, I also felt some sadness in my heart, if it weren't for Yaoyao stopping me from the beginning.
I believe that I will also follow the same path as Wu Kai, and do my best to maintain my little self-esteem.
I am secretly glad that I was able to meet Yaoyao, and I also silently thank Yaoyao in my heart for everything she has done for me.
Of course, my timely realization and Wu Kai's obsession are the reasons why our relationship ends are very different.
And I also know that Wu Kai's obsession comes from the inferiority complex in his heart that is more than mine, and he also needs to prove himself more urgently.
