Meeting the man's eyes, Yu Ruoruan was slightly stunned.
At this moment, a sound was heard from the truck, and the disassembled piano baffle suddenly slid down from the side of the truck and hit Yu Ruanruan.
"boom--"
The expected pain did not come, and the man stretched out an arm to block her head.
…
"Just put the things in this location."
Instructing the mover to move the piano into the living room, after settling the bill, Yu Ruanruan opened the door to see off the guests.
As soon as I walked to the door, I saw a figure standing in the corner.
Huo Xu looked at her with sad eyes.
Yu Ruanruan frowned, ignored his gaze, and closed the door with a bang.
Huo Xu: "..."
The man frowned tightly, and the cigar he had just pulled out was crushed into pieces in his palm.
His arm was still bleeding, but he deliberately didn't deal with it because he wanted to wait for Yu Ruoruan to see it and take him into the house.
But the woman simply ignored him.
She didn't feel distressed at all, and she didn't even bother to show off her usual pretentious attitude!
Huo Xu stood outside the door blankly.
There was a storm in the dark phoenix eyes, and even crazy thoughts flashed through.
Does she want to leave?
Want to leave?
No, he won't let her have her wish.
If she was determined to leave, he wouldn't mind repeating the nightmare of his previous life.
As long as she is captured and imprisoned, she will never be able to leave him.
But……
Huo Xu's breath hitched.
I felt a sharp stinging sensation from my respiratory tract to my chest.
Because he realized that if he did this, he might be able to make her unable to escape once and for all, but she would never be able to love him again.
I will only fear him and hate him...
Huo Xu suddenly frowned and covered his chest with his big palms. That position was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe.
There was a buzzing in his head and he was dizzy. He stretched out his bleeding arm to support the wall, opened his mouth, and took a big breath like a dying fish emerging from the water.
It wasn't until the tinnitus disappeared that he felt as if he had died, and a glimmer of light shone in his eyes.
It turned out that he was afraid of losing far more than just her.
And her heart.
…
Yu Ruoruan spent the whole afternoon tidying up the house.
She has a lot of things, but fortunately she has a cleaning lady to help her clean them up. She is very enthusiastic.
Yu Ruoruan learned that she had helped the landlord take care of the house for several years, and that when the landlord returned to China, he would also help with cooking.
Yu Ruanruan has a good impression of her aunt.
In my senior year of high school, I was under a lot of pressure to study, and I didn’t have time to clean up the house. I also had to keep up with nutrition.
She then decided to pay her aunt a salary and stay to continue cooking and working.
The aunt shook her hand and said, "Little girl, you don't need to give me a second salary. Mr. Xiao didn't say he would fire me. Even if you move into his house, I still need to clean it every day."
When Yu Ruoruan heard this, she felt that the landlord was a bit strange.
However, after all, it is someone else's house. If you cherish your own house and are afraid of tenants messing around, it is reasonable to hire an aunt to supervise it.
Yu Ruanruan doesn't care. For her, this is a win-win situation.
In the end, she only gave her aunt money for cooking alone.
Halfway through assembling the piano, I discovered that parts were missing. It was about the time when it was being disassembled on the truck that it was unloaded onto the truck.
Since it was not a scarce part, Yu Ruoruan decided to go out and see if there was any music store nearby and buy a few new ones.
After changing her clothes and about to push the door open, she paused for a second.
But I didn't hesitate for long.
When I opened the door, the corridor was empty. Huo Xu had left.
She felt a little funny that she would worry about the guy waiting outside.
What on earth gave her such self-confidence?
"Click——"
There was a sound at the door opposite.
The thin figure just came out, and when he raised his head, he met Yu's soft and clear eyes.
Fu Chuan was startled, his eyes averted, he lowered his head, turned around, and strode towards the elevator entrance.
"Fu Chuan!"
Yu Ruanruan followed, "I'm going to be angry if you do this again!"
Fu Chuan paused, and finally stopped, waiting for her to approach.
"I'm kidding you!" Yu Ruanruan put her hands behind her back, tilted her head, and approached Fu Chuan. Seeing the stiff and awkward look on his face, she couldn't help laughing, "Why did you move here?"
"My cousin found someone to transfer to a key junior high school nearby. In order to make it easier for her to go to school, my aunt moved here to accompany her."
Fu Chuan still looked intently.
Yu Ruoruan nodded, "Then what are you going to do now?"
"Buying groceries."
"Really? What a coincidence, I'm going to buy groceries too. It's been a long time since we went shopping together."
Yu Ruanruan said eloquently, "Do you still remember? At that time in Nianhua Town, I didn't understand the first time I bought pork, so I was slaughtered by a small vendor. When I got home, I was almost beaten to death by Yang Cuihua."
"Later, you were the first in bargaining when buying groceries." Fu Chuan chuckled.
Finally, the atmosphere between the two was no longer so awkward.
Yu Ruanruan grinned and said mysteriously, "Not just shopping for groceries? I know how to dig for gold now. I can buy something worth thousands for a dozen yuan, just like the ones you broke in Qiangyuan last time.
I got that flower pot at the farmer's market, and it only cost 20 yuan."
Fu Chuan was startled.
At this moment, a gap was opened in the closed door of the heart, revealing the softest corner.
He quietly glanced at the girl next to him, his heart aching.
There was a feeling that he had suppressed that he could no longer control and burst out.
He knew that the girl had noticed the reason for his sudden coldness and avoidance, and she chose to use this tactful way to untie his knot.
She knows him so well.
So kind, so beautiful.
It moved his heart so much.
"Soft."
He paused and finally asked, "Why did you move outside?"
She has always loved Mr. Huo.
In order to be engaged to Mr. Huo, he caused a commotion all over the city and everyone knew about it.
Now that Mr. Huo finally extended an olive branch to her, shouldn't she take advantage of this opportunity to cultivate a relationship with Mr. Huo?
"Don't mention that scumbag to me!"
Yu Ruanruan pouted, "By the way, it will be my twentieth birthday party in a while. My mother should help me hold a grand birthday party at the top of Yunding, the imperial capital. I don't even know the people she invited.
, I don’t like it either, Fu Chuan, I hope you can come."
Hope you can come.
When Fu Chuan heard these words, his heart began to beat wildly, and a secret joy melted in his heart like eating honey.
"However, the gift must not be missing!"
Yu Ruanruan put her hands on her waist and said confidently, "You have been so cold to me all these years, and I am very angry! Then I will punish you by folding a thousand paper cranes for me!"
Fu Chuan was startled, feeling bitter in his heart.
He knew that the girl used this strong tone to relieve his embarrassment of being cash-strapped.
Fu Chuan remembered the first time he asked Yu Ruanruan about her birthday, the girl said, "I am an orphan. I don't know when my birthday is. The seventh day of the twelfth lunar month is the day when the dean took me in. I acquiesced in my heart.
My birthday is on this day, but since I was a child, I have never received a birthday gift. I am so envious of those children who have cake to eat."
That night, Fu Chuan went back and cut out an exercise book, folded a thousand origami cranes overnight, put them in a transparent glass jar, and secretly put them in the girl's drawer during class the next day.
Since then, every year on the girl's birthday, he would fold a thousand paper cranes and give them to her.
He was not good at words and had never said happy birthday to her. He even thought that he was doing these things without being aware of it.
It turns out that Ruanruan knew about it all along.
But now, they are no longer children, and he doesn't want to give children things like paper cranes anymore.
What he wants is not pity.
"I haven't folded them for a long time, and I have forgotten how to fold them."
Unexpectedly, he would refuse, and Yu Ruanruan felt a little regretful, "Well, you don't have to give up the gift, but the person must come."
"talk later."
Fu Chuan's ears turned red and he quickly entered the elevator.
He thought he had to buy groceries quickly and go home to cook, so that he could work in a nearby convenience store. He only had to work for another week to make enough money.
That time when I accompanied Ruanruan to the mall to pick out a tie for Yu Feifan, we passed by a jewelry store.
There was a necklace hanging on the window. He stopped and took a closer look. Fu Chuan was a little surprised by the price tag of the necklace, but he had saved some money over the years. As long as he saved a little more, he would be able to buy it.
necklace.
Yu Ruanruan didn't understand why the boy suddenly fell silent.
I felt a little disappointed.
Are she and Fu Chuan destined to never go back to their past?
No matter what, no one will stay still and remain unchanged.
She doesn't pray that Fu Chuan can always revolve around her like he did when he was a child, she just hopes that this bond between them can still be maintained.
At least let her know that there are still people in this world who are willing to truly care about her.
Yu Ruanruan chuckled helplessly and followed Fu Chuan into the elevator.
behind.
A tall shadow came out from around the corner.
Huo Xu looked at the slowly closing elevator door with a dazed look in his eyes. After a long time, he took out his mobile phone and dialed his assistant's number.
