Chapter 24 ·

“Hey, Mr. Wen, isn’t that your eldest lady?”

Wen Qingmo was patted on the shoulder by the person beside him, and he looked in the direction the person pointed, and saw two people sitting at the table in the corner, their figures were very familiar.

His normal pace slowed down, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

One of them is Lu Xi, whose taro-purple hair makes her very recognizable, and the girl’s face looks translucent under the bright light, like a delicate porcelain doll.

another…

It’s Shen Yu. Yi Yi Xiang Wu Hua Ding Ding Ding Tianya

Sure enough, as Lu Xi said, she was going to have dinner with Shen Yu the day after her birthday.

I just didn’t expect to meet by chance.

“Isn’t that… the eldest son of the Shen family?”

The boss next to him also recognized the person opposite Lu Xi: “Aren’t you saying hello to your sister?”

“Old Zhang, this is why you lost your wink. Two young people are dating, and it’s the time when you don’t want others to disturb you.” Another person said.

“Hahaha… Yes, I didn’t think carefully.”

Wen Qingmo had no intention of going over to say hello, and looked away calmly: “Okay, let’s go.”

The restaurant that Shen Yu brought her to has a good environment, the music like water flows gently, and the distance between each seat is relatively far, which can give diners a relatively private dining environment.

The design of the glass also means that the outside cannot see the inside, but the inside can see the outside, which is very suitable for people like Lu Xi who want to sit by the window without being seen by passers-by.

“Happy birthday, Xiaoxi, I’m 21 years old, I hope you can be happy every day…Although I sent you a message yesterday, I should say it in person.”

Shen Yu looked at her tenderly.

“Thank you.” Lu Xi was a little uncomfortable with Shen Yu’s eyes, and didn’t dare to lift his head.

“Drink some water.”

As Shen Yu said, he picked up the pot and poured the tea into Lu Xi’s cup.

“…Thank you.” Lu Xi said again, and when the cup of tea was full, he held it in front of him.

“-what happened to your hand?”

Although Lu Xi tried his best to hide it, the sharp-eyed Shen Yu quickly discovered it. He widened his eyes and asked in surprise, his voice raised involuntarily.

“Oh it’s all right.”

Lu Xi clenched his fists in a vain way, and said the reason he had long thought of to deal with others: “I used an old-fashioned juicer to make juice, and I accidentally cut my hand.”

“By—” Shen Yu was at a loss for words for a moment, he didn’t know what to say, his eyes were full of worry, “You, let me see.”

“It’s better not to, this scar is a bit scary.”

Lu Xi flatly refused.

What a joke.

With such an ugly scar, she didn’t want to be looked at by others.

Seeing Lu Xi’s resolute attitude, Shen Yu couldn’t persist, but continued to ask: “Your injury…is it probably stitches?”

Lu Xi nodded: “Well, it was a few stitches, but the stitches were removed not long ago, and it will be fine soon.”

“Have you told your uncle and aunt?”

“Of course not,” Lu Xi said, “There’s no need to say it, it will make them worry.”

Shen Yu seemed a little helpless: “You… oh… don’t use such dangerous things in the future, can’t you just buy juice if you want to drink it?”

Shen Yu said a few more words of concern about her hand injury, and then slowly changed the subject: “Have you thought about what you want to do after graduation?”

Lu Xi took a sip of tea: “Not yet.”

In fact, she has some ideas, but she has never been in the habit of telling others before things are done.

“But if you graduate…you should get married too, right?”

Lu Xi was choked by Shen Yu’s words. While coughing violently, she reached out and took out a piece of paper to wipe her mouth: “Married? Who will get married just after graduation?”

It’s not that she hasn’t seen that kind of crazy marriage urger, it’s just that Shen Yu has always given her the impression of being gentle and relaxed, so that when he said “You should get married too” as a matter of course, Lu Xi I was really surprised.

Shen Yu didn’t seem to have expected that Lu Xi would react so strongly, he was a little dazed for a while, and subconsciously said: “Isn’t this… normal, Omega is usually like this…”

“Ah,” Lu Xi folded up the paper to wipe his mouth, “but I don’t have this plan, I don’t want to get married so early.”

She thought about it, and couldn’t help asking tentatively: “By the way, are all the Omega you know married very early?”

Shen Yu pondered for a while: “Most of them, and some Omegas got engaged when they were in school, don’t you know?”

As he said, he was a little strange.

Lu Xi sneered: “I know, of course I know, but I still want to ask…”

“By the way, isn’t Xia Weiwei right? She and Zhao Xunzhou plan to get married after graduation.”

Zhao Xunzhou?

Lu Xi was stunned for a moment before realizing that this was the male Alpha who talked to Xia Weiwei at Shen Yu’s welcome banquet that day.

But he was in the army most of the time, and Xia Weiwei couldn’t even make a video call whenever she wanted.

Lu Xi is not used to gossip about other people’s emotional privacy, so she doesn’t know much about Xia Weiwei’s boyfriend.

“However, it’s fine if you don’t rush to get married. After all, you have to find someone who suits you. Uncles and aunts love you so much, so they will definitely respect your wishes.” Shen Yu said again.

“…”

Lu Xi didn’t want to continue discussing this topic anymore, she looked around, and abruptly changed the subject: “It’s been half an hour since we finished ordering, why haven’t we served yet?”

Shen Yu couldn’t help laughing: “Where is it so exaggerated, it’s only been ten minutes since we finished ordering, are you hungry? Do you want me to remind you?”

“No, no, no,” Lu Xi hurriedly waved his hands, “That’s all I’ll say.”

However, as she wished, the meals were quickly served one by one. Except for the mention of marriage at the beginning, the chat between the two began to chatter and relax. Lu Xi found Shen Yu unexpectedly Still a funny guy.

Looking at the smiling face of the girl in front of him, Shen Yu couldn’t help but squeeze the handle of the spoon tightly, and the impulse in his heart became more and more irresistible.

no.

He couldn’t hesitate any longer.

That matter…you must tell Lu Xi today.

After the meal was finally finished, Lu Xi followed Shen Yu to the underground parking lot.

There were many cars in the parking lot, and it was still stuffy. Lu Xi loosened his collar, and the phone in his pocket rang.

Shen Yu walked to the side of the car, pressed the car key, and the car lock unlocked. He was just about to help Lu Xi open the co-pilot’s door, when he heard Lu Xi say from behind: “Sorry, or you can go first… I have to go to the nearby mall to buy something.”

Lu Xi put the phone back and walked in front of Shen Yu: “Wei Wei asked me to buy something for her when I came out today, I almost forgot.”

Fortunately, Xia Weiwei called to remind her just now.

“You…” Shen Yu slowly put down his hand, “What do you want to buy? I’ll go with you.”

“No, no, you should have something else to do, just go first, I will go back by myself, don’t bother you.”

trouble.

Hearing Lu Xi say this word, a sense of frustration rose in Shen Yu’s heart.

No matter what, Lu Xi… seems to have always had a sense of distance from him.

Shen Yu could feel that Lu Xi’s refusal didn’t mean any refusal or welcome, she really wanted him to leave first.

The disappointment in Shen Yu’s heart suddenly expanded, he pursed his lips, but finally decided to speak.

“Then…let me tell you something.”

Seeing Shen Yu’s slowly becoming firm expression, Lu Xi involuntarily became tense and stood motionless.

Is this going to be a showdown?

“Actually… I was going to say it last time, but I didn’t expect you to leave beforehand, so my plan had to be shelved.” Shen Yu smiled, trying to make the atmosphere more relaxed, “I finally have a chance to see you again today. .”

Lu Xi held his breath subconsciously.

“…Lu Xi, I have liked you for a long time.” Shen Yu’s tone was calm, mixed with a few traces of undetectable tremors, Lu Xi saw his Adam’s apple rolling up and down, “I just want you to know… Just wanted to tell you.”

Lu Xi took a step back, stuck to a black car behind him, and met Shen Yu’s eyes.

She didn’t know what to say for a while.

Promise, definitely can’t promise.

She didn’t understand Shen Yu at all.

Not to mention falling in love.

So… I can only refuse.

Lu Xi swallowed hard.

“Feel sorry.”

“Of course, I’m not saying you’re going to reply to me now…”

After a pause for a few seconds, the two spoke at the same time. After hearing each other’s words, they fell into a long silence together.

It goes without saying what sorry means.

Shen Yu’s calm expression gradually became unbearable. He lowered his head, blinked vigorously, took a deep breath, and then looked at Lu Xi again, showing a smile.

Lu Xi felt something wrong with Shen Yu’s forced smile.

She didn’t think there was anything wrong with her refusal, but she was more or less apologetic when she saw others feel sad because of her refusal.

“Then… can I have a chance to pursue you?”

Shen Yu was still a little unwilling to be rejected so readily, and asked again.

Lu Xi sighed in his heart, and turned his head: “I’m sorry.”

In fact, she really wanted to tell Shen Yu that this way of confessing right away is not very advisable.

If you like someone and want to pursue the other person, the best way is not to confess, get in touch with each other more, chat, give a gift on your birthday, make an appointment for dinner at ordinary times, and strengthen your relationship with the other person through slow trials.

Confession is always the last step.

Lu Xi, a young expert who only has theory but no practice, thinks so.

Being rejected twice in a row, no matter how strong Shen Yu was, he couldn’t adjust himself for a while. He smiled wryly, and murmured, “Don’t even give me a chance…”

Lu Xi: “…”

“I remember when I was young, you said that you would marry brother Shen Yu in the future…”

Lu Xi:!

She didn’t know it when she was a child!

Seeing Lu Xi’s increasingly strange expression, Shen Yu came back to his senses, shook his head slightly, and consciously slipped his words: “I’m sorry, I look like I’m selling misery…”

“Uh, it’s all right.”

Lu Xi replied palely.

Shen Yu glanced at Lu Xi, then smiled self-deprecatingly.

He thought about the possibility of Lu Xi rejecting him, but he didn’t expect that Lu Xi would reject him so quickly, without a second of hesitation, and didn’t even give him a chance to pursue him.

“…Are you going to help Xia Weiwei do the shopping?” Shen Yu asked.

“Yes,” Lu Xi guessed that Shen Yu might feel that he could no longer share a small space with him, so he nodded immediately, “Go first, I will ask the driver to take me back.”

She couldn’t help but put on the honorifics.

This time, Shen Yu didn’t insist on accompanying her or anything, just said “Be careful, tell me in the dormitory”, then opened the car door without saying a word, and drove away from the parking lot.

It wasn’t until Shen Yu’s car exhaust was no longer visible that Lu Xi completely relaxed his body.

“call…”

Tell me, why is she so tired?

Lu Xi turned her neck and was about to leave the underground parking lot when the black car she was leaning on just now rang suddenly, the headlights and rear lights flashed on and off instantly, Lu Xi was startled and jumped a step forward , and saw the driver’s door of the black car being pushed open.

The man in a suit came down and looked at Lu Xi with a playful expression.

Lu Xi widened his eyes little by little, and blurted out: “…Brother!?”

Her eyes jumped several times on Wen Qingmo’s face and the car, and it took a long time to confirm that she was indeed leaning on Wen Qingmo’s car just now.

No wonder she finds the black car so familiar, it’s just that Shen Yu’s confession took all of her attention, so she didn’t notice the license plate number.

“Um.”

Hearing Lu Xi calling her, Wen Qing silently responded, showing a formulaic, emotionless smile.
