235 You and I are not suitable
At around seven o'clock in the morning, after Xia Qiong changed her clothes and went downstairs, she suddenly saw a figure wearing an apron in the kitchen. She frowned and took a few steps quickly. After seeing the man's face clearly, she immediately opened her mouth in surprise.
"……sister?"
"Good morning." Xia Chaolu brought out the fried poached eggs and gently placed them on the dining table. She smiled and said, "I cooked porridge and baked toast. Go and wash your hands quickly."
"Oh." Xia Qiong responded, but still felt incredible. In recent years, Xia Chaolu has basically not entered the kitchen. What's wrong today?
After a moment, Xia Qiong sat at the dining table, lowered her head and stirred the white porridge in the bowl, looking like she wanted to speak but stopped. She mustered up several courages before finally asking, "Sister, are you okay?"
"No." Xia Chaolu raised her eyebrows and looked at her. Two dimples appeared on her cheeks without makeup. "I slept too early last night and woke up at around five o'clock today. Anyway, I'll make breakfast if I have time."
After she explained lightly, Xia Qiong's question became deeper, "Brother Li Jun came to our house to find you yesterday, but your phone was not available."
"Well, my phone is out of battery." Xia Chaolu still lowered her head and replied lightly.
Recalling yesterday's explosive news, Xia Qiong couldn't help frowning, "Sister, you are really with Mr. Li..."
"Second sister, I don't want to talk about this topic." Xia Chaolu interrupted the topic first. When she raised her eyes and looked over, her eyes stayed on Xia Qiong for a few seconds, then bent her lips, "The color of your skirt today is so beautiful."
A lavender-colored woolen long skirt is indeed very suitable for Xia Qiong. Her skin is white, and wearing this fresh and elegant color will highlight her temperament.
Xia Qiong's face turned slightly red, and she lowered her head embarrassedly.
"Are you going out?"
"Well, I asked a friend for tea."
Upon hearing this, Xia Chaolu frowned with a delicate brow. Recently, Xia Qiong seemed to have often gone out to meet friends, but before she could ask, the door of the house was pushed open suddenly.
bump!
Xia Yang pushed open the door vigorously, and Feng Fenghuohuo ran back, "Sister!"
"Xiaoyang, why are you back?" Xia Qiong stood up in surprise when she saw her younger brother coming in.
After crossing Xia Qiong's shoulder, Xia Yang walked a few steps to Xia Chaoli, with anger on his face, "Why did you terminate the engagement with Brother Li?"
From the moment my younger brother entered the door, Xia Chaolu vaguely guessed something. She put down the chopsticks in her hand, pulled out a tissue to wipe her mouth, and said, "Xiaoyang, this is my sister's business, it has nothing to do with you."
"Why is it okay? Brother Li is very nice to us in normal times. Aren't you very good relationship? Why did you suddenly say that you want to terminate the engagement?" Xia Yang asked with a calm face. Xia Qiong stepped forward and grabbed his brother's arm and signaled him not to say anything again. Unfortunately, all of them were ignored by Xia Yang.
Bang!
Xia Chaolu pulled open the chair and looked at her younger brother with a cold face, "I'll say it again, this is my private matter and it has nothing to do with you. You just need to study hard!"
"Are you acquainted with others, so you abandoned Brother Li?"
"Xia Yang!" Because of my younger brother's words, the anger that had accumulated in Xia Chaolu's heart suddenly rose.
"Xiaoyang, don't say it again."
Seeing that the eldest sister was about to get angry, Xia Qiong hurriedly grabbed his brother's arm and wanted to pull him back to the room. Unfortunately, Xia Yang's tall figure was very strong, and Xia Qiong's strength was no longer as strong as him.
"Second sister, I'm going to say it!" Xia Yang's eyes were red and his neck was thick, and his handsome facial features were stained with anger. "You can definitely see the feelings of Brother Li to his elder sister. They have always been doing well. Why did the elder sister break up the engagement?"
The temples on both sides of her forehead were leaping. Xia Chaolu had been very depressed these days. After last night's incident, she hadn't slept all night. But now Xia Yang was aggressive in front of her, which made her feel so angry that she couldn't suppress her heart.
"Sister, you're doing this too much!"
"Shut up!" Xia Chaolu looked at his younger brother with a pale face, his chest fluttering with anger.
Xia Qiong ran to Xia Yang to protect him and explained repeatedly, "Sister, Xiao Yang is still ignorant, don't be angry with him."
"Second sister, you don't have to explain for me." Xia Yang stretched out his hand and pushed Xia Qiong away with her protection, curled her lips and snorted coldly, "In our family, she always talks about the same thing, she is the queen!"
After saying this, Xia Yang turned around with his schoolbag on his back and ran away quickly without looking back.
"Xiaoyang——"
Xia Qiong chased after him immediately, but unfortunately Xia Yang had two long legs and she couldn't catch up at all.
Soon, Xia Qiong returned to the living room. She pursed her lips and walked over. Seeing Xia Chaolu sitting on the sofa, her face still looked ugly.
Turning around and pouring a glass of water over, Xia Qiong carefully placed it on the coffee table, "Sister, stop being angry, drink some water."
I didn't sleep much last night, and now I got angry with Xia Yang again. Xia Chaolu felt a split headache. She held her water cup with a calm face and tightened her slender fingers, "Hmph, I've grown up, and now I dare to talk back to me!"
"Xiaoyang and Li Ershou have always had a good relationship. Yesterday's news was announced very suddenly. I think Xiaoyang is a little unacceptable for a while." Xia Qiong comforted her carefully, "But Xiaoyang's child's temper is just about to come. When he knows that he is wrong tomorrow."
With a long sigh, Xia Chaolu put down the water cup and got up and was about to go upstairs.
"Sister, are you okay?" Xia Qiong held her sister worriedly.
Xia Chaolu waved her hand and said, "I have a headache and want to go up and have a sleep."
After pausing, she looked up at the sister in front of her, her eyes flashed slightly, "Do you think I am the queen, too?"
"No, no." Xia Qiong waved his hand quickly, "Sister, don't listen to Xiaoyang's nonsense. If you hadn't supported your family over the years, how could we have such a good life?"
Xia Chaolu's words were somewhat comforting for her sister. She pursed her lips and picked up the bag on the side, opened it, took out a stack of money and handed it over, "You have to spend your own money when going out with your friends, don't let others pay the bill, do you know?"
"Oh." Xia Qiong took the money obediently and didn't say much.
Looking at her sister's back as she went upstairs, a hint of loneliness flashed across Xia Qiong's bright cheeks. In fact, many times, what she wanted was not money, but...
Xia Qiong looked at the stack of money in her palm and had to stuff it into her wallet. Although she didn't fully agree with what Xia Yang said just now, in this family, the eldest sister is really the only one who has the final say and never listens to her and her brother's ideas.
It took her sleep until three o'clock in the afternoon before Xia Chaolu opened her eyes. Xia Qiong went out to date with her friends, but she had not yet returned home, and the house was a little too deserted.
The servant warmed up the food, and Xia Chaolu sat at the dining table and ate without any taste. The phone placed on the table buzzed and vibrated twice. After she swiped the screen, she saw the WeChat message from Xia Yang.
Xia Yang: Sister, I'm sorry, I was wrong, don't be angry with me.
After staring at the WeChat message sent by my brother, I read it silently twice. Xia Chaolu's frown frowning finally unfolded. Humph, this kid is cognizable, otherwise he would be more beautiful!
After eating, her empty stomach was filled. Xia Chaolu planned to be lazy for a day, so she would have a good rest at home today and not go to work in the studio. She returned to the bedroom, filled the bathtub with hot water, and added a few drops of essential oil.
There are too many things in the studio recently and there are too many experiences involved in her. In addition, she holds Gu Yining so carefully every day that she feels so tired.
At this moment, after eating and drinking, lying in the bathtub, Xia Chaolu felt like he was full of blood and resurrected. The sky outside the bathroom window gradually became dark, and her head was resting on the edge of the bathtub, and her red lips pursed.
People like Gu Yining are soft but not hard. She should follow the steps and never be too hasty!
In the evening, when Gu Yining drove back to the apartment, it was almost seven o'clock. He locked the car and walked towards the building, his steps were a little anxious.
But as soon as he walked to the front of the building, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of him.
"Yining."
Dong Miaomiao was wearing a burgundy coat and carrying a thermal insulation box in her hand. Seeing him coming back, she hurriedly ran forward, "You're back, I'll bring you a few side dishes for you to taste."
"When did you come?" The man's beautiful eyebrows slowly frowned.
"I've been here for a while." Dong Miaomiao replied with a smile. The temperature in the winter night was low, and I think she should have waited for a while, so that the tip of her nose was frozen red.
Gu Yining put one hand in his pocket, and the dark gray coat on his body was crisp, "I've had a meal."
"Uh..." He probably didn't expect Gu Yining to answer like this, and Dong Miaomiao's smiling face instantly became stiff. She held the insulation box bag in her hand tightly and laughed awkwardly, "Is that right? Then you can take it back and keep it for tomorrow to eat."
She took the initiative to hand over the insulation box in her hand, but she waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for Gu Yining to reach out.
Dong Miaomiao raised her face in disappointment, her eyes facing Gu Yining's dark eyes. Her heart suddenly trembled, but she heard the man speak heavily.
"Ms. Dong."
Gu Yining's dark eyes were dull, and the iceberg face, which had always been cold, was still scary, "Have you ever thought about a question?"
Question? Dong Miaomiao subconsciously bit her lower lip and then shook her head.
The man's thin lips curled slightly, and his voice was clear and light, "I think you and I are not suitable."
Upon hearing this, Dong Miaomiao grabbed Gu Yining's arm and said anxiously: "Yining, why are we inappropriate? If it weren't Xia last time..."
She paused and then said again: "If the last time was not an accident, we were already engaged."
"Accident?"
When Gu Yining heard these two words, he seemed to hold his lips and smiled. He pulled his arm out of Dong Miaomiao's hand with a cold face, his voice cold and unrestrained, "You should know that there are no surprises for me."
“…”
After the man said calmly, he lowered his head and walked around Dong Miaomiao's shoulders and went straight upstairs.
Seeing Gu Yining turning around and walking away, Dong Miaomiao didn't dare to chase after him. Yes, he was the second young master of the Gu family. If he hadn't wanted to leave, who could have ruined the engagement?!
Suddenly, he held the insulation box in his hand tightly, and Dong Miaomiao walked down the steps with a white face, and the expression in his eyes became gloomy. Yesterday, Xia Chaolu announced that she had terminated the engagement, but today, Gu Yining couldn't hold it back?!
bite!
The elevator door opened. Gu Yining took out the key and pushed the door open. Unfortunately, it was pitch black inside and there was no light at all. After he took off his coat, he turned on the headlight.
When the man bent down and opened the shoe cabinet, he reached out to take out the slippers, and suddenly saw the pair of pink ladies slippers placed on the side. In just a moment, his eyes fluctuated a few times.
After changing his clothes and washing his hands, Gu Yining walked to the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator door, took out the rib soup left over last night, and heated it on the fire. Then he heated the dishes that he had not finished last night again.
A person's dining table always looks big. Gu Yining pulled open the chair and sat down, his fingers with distinct joints gently scooped the pork ribs in the bowl. The cold eyes did not seem to have too many emotional ups and downs.
The landscape lights outside the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room lit up one after another. Gu Yining lowered his head and drank the soup, and tightened his five fingers in front of the table little by little.
This dead woman always disturbed his heart so much. Every time she stirred up the waves of his heart, she would hide quietly and cause him torture.
Tag.
After Gu Yining drank the whole bowl of pork rib soup, he got up and went to the floor-to-ceiling window. Tonight, the night was dim, and he looked up slightly, and the moon hanging in the ink sky was particularly round.
Xia Chaolu and Li Jun terminated their engagement. From yesterday to today, the popularity of this news still occupies the ranking and has become a hot topic.
Gu Yining leaned sideways in front of the window, staring at a point in front of him with a dark look, and he had not moved for a long time.
Six years ago, Xia Chaolu could give up on him without looking back because of her family.
So what about six years later? A layer of indelible depression is shrouded between the man's eyebrows. Will she give up on him again after six years?
Gu Yining pursed his lips and could not give himself a positive answer.
