233 Asking Questions, Think Clearly Before Coming In
Xin Yi got on the bus directly just to avoid Xu Yang behind, so she got on the bus as soon as it came without looking.
As a result, I was shocked to realize that I had boarded the wrong train after two stops. I changed trains at the next stop and went around all night. It was still too late when I arrived at the Oriental Pearl Tower.
I called Tang Jinteng, but she couldn't get in.
Normally Lu Zeng would pick me up and drop me off, so I didn't think about getting stuck. Now that I was stopped outside, I remembered this.
Tang Jinteng dropped two words on the phone and ended the call:
"Wait!"
I'm still on my way to school right now. I went to attend a social event in the evening, so I passed the time.
Xin Yi's feet were sore from standing and she wanted to sit down, but the ground was cold, so she squatted again. When she was tired from squatting, she stood up again. After several repetitions, Tang Jinteng finally came back.
The car stopped on the side of the road and opened the window:
"Get in the car."
Xin Yi quickly ran over, opened the car door, sat down, rubbed her hands and said:
"It's so cold outside, why did you just come back?"
Tang Jinteng glanced at her sideways, and the car drove directly into the Oriental Pearl Tower. When he got out of the car, Tang Jinteng said:
"I said I would pick you up, why are you rushing back?"
Xin Yi rolled her eyes. She didn't remember him saying such words at all. She just didn't want to cause Lu Zeng so much trouble, so she could come here by herself.
Xin Yi got out of the car, looked at Tang Jinteng, and took the initiative to lean over when he turned sideways, hugged his hand, and said in a low voice:
"I'm sorry today. I shouldn't have said that. Don't be angry. I just don't want others to know."
Can you forgive her if you take the initiative to apologize?
He suddenly appeared in her classroom without saying a word. She was really startled. It was too sudden. She was a fool who couldn't use her brain when she panicked. She didn't know what to do at that time? She just wanted to hurry up.
After leaving, I happened to meet Zhang Tingting again.
Xin Yi knew that he was really angry at noon. If she pretended not to know about this, he would definitely not let her off so easily.
Tang Jinteng lowered his eyes and looked at her. This man actually understood very well.
But he is an adult man after all, so he doesn’t know what kind of temperament she is like. As for getting angry with her?
After settling for an afternoon, the inexplicable anger that was rising at noon had subsided.
However, since she asked, he naturally wanted to speak. His dark eyes fell on her face and said:
"Tell me, what is our relationship?"
"..." He couldn't say it out loud. He wanted to disguise himself and have others agree with him. It was such an annoying behavior.
Tang Jinteng held her chin with his big palm and said:
"Haven't thought about it yet?"
"It's not, that, lover, lover relationship." Xin Yi frowned and spoke quickly.
Tang Jinteng leaned forward slightly, stared at her, and said in a cool tone:
"Xin Yi, don't be disrespectful. I won't give you a peaceful life. If you come to me again when you can't find a place to cry, I'm afraid I won't give you that chance again. If you are smart, take advantage of it.
When I'm still a little interested in you, hold me firmly. Say you don't know anything, you have experienced some things, and you have seen the tip of the iceberg of what life is like. You should understand how holding me will help you.
.”
These words directly revealed the relationship between the two.
To put it bluntly, I am somewhat interested in you now, so I take you seriously. If I am no longer interested in you, you are not even a stranger.
Xin Yi's face turned pale. She really didn't have the courage to face this complicated society alone.
There are still too many things she needs to rely on.
Everyone has family and relatives, but she does not. To put it bluntly, people like her are orphans. When she is sick, no one in the hospital will remember her.
Xin Yi sometimes feels aggrieved because following him is not something she would do willingly.
I went to him when something happened and agreed to his conditions. After the matter was resolved, the determination I made when I agreed to the conditions gradually wavered.
She is a good girl like a flower, why should she maintain such an unclear relationship with an old man?
But if you think about it carefully, her own purpose is not simple. She wants to find someone to rely on.
It was not because following Tang Jinteng would make her more famous, but because she was reassured that she would not be bullied and she could live without any worries. This was the greatest sense of superiority she felt around him.
What Tang Jinteng said is right. He likes her now, so he will let her do it. If one day he doesn't like her anymore and she comes to him again, he will no longer give her a good look.
On the one hand, she wanted to stay by his side, but on the other hand, she was unwilling to just obey someone like this.
Tang Jinteng's eyes pierced her eyes coldly, and Xin Yi remained silent at the moment.
Tang Jinteng released his big palm holding her chin, passed her, walked directly into the room, and gave her cold words:
"Think it over before you come in, or get out."
Xin Yi was stung by Tang Jinteng's words. He had always been cruel to her, but his words were always coaxing, and he never said such serious words.
Xin Yi looked at Tang Jinteng's back and bit her lip. She stood alone in the cold wind and looked at the brightly lit house and the dark and windy outside. Then she looked at the warm villa and the dark night with the howling cold wind.
After all, I have no confidence to leave. In the face of reality, self-esteem and integrity are both a joke.
I pushed the door open and walked in, lingering at the entrance, changing into a pair of slippers for at least half an hour, and finally walked in with small steps.
Tang Jinteng was sitting in the hall, his strong and slender legs folded casually, holding an evening newspaper in his hand, without looking up at Xin Yi.
Xin Yi moved her body, walked over, approached Tang Jinteng, stood for a while, and said:
"I have thought about it, Tang Jinteng, and I will listen to you."
Tang Jinteng slowly raised his eyes, looked at her with a cool gaze, and asked in a calm voice:
"Tell me what you think."
"I didn't think much about it..." Xin Yi muttered.
"I went out without thinking about it and came in after thinking about it. Whether I leave or come in, I won't stop you." Tang Jinteng's words were ruthless. He expected that she would not leave. These words were deliberately meant to hurt her.
Xin Yi glared at him angrily, then quickly buried her head again. After a while, she said:
"It's so cold outside..." Xin Yi muttered.
I think I came in because I was worried about the cold.
Tang Jinteng's eyes turned cold, and Xin Yi quickly leaned towards him and said:
"I have said it, I have thought about it, and I will listen to you in the future."
"Stop and say it." Tang Jinteng said coldly.
Xin Yi immediately stopped moving forward and stood still, biting her lip and looking at him with wide eyes.
I feel aggrieved. If this is not enough, what else should I say? Do you want her to swear?
After a long while, he said in a low voice:
"Then what do you want to hear? You tell me and I say, okay?" If she was asked to guess, how could she possibly guess what he wanted to hear?
