Chapter 54

The voice was too small and the wind outside was so strong that Ling Yuan didn’t hear it.

Ji Yu said aloud, “Senior, can you wait for me down here?”

Ling Yuan hears her meaning, his voice is gentle, like coaxing a child, “You want to come down? Don’t come down, it’s cold outside, eat in your room, warm up afterward and have a good sleep.”

For some reason, listening to his gentle voice, Ji Yu suddenly reddened her eyes, her nasal voice was heavy, “Senior, will you eat with me?”

Ling Yuan froze, hearing the aggravation in her voice, and was a bit frazzled, “Hey, you, don’t cry.”

A soft sobbing sound came from the other end of the phone, and he became more and more flustered, “Chi Xiaoyu, don’t cry, be good, don’t cry.”

There was no response from the other party, only the sound of huffing, if any, came through.

Ling Yuan’s scalp was instantly numb, he had never coaxed a girl, he didn’t know how to coax, he was so anxious that he wanted to rush straight up to the second floor to hold her, coaxing her so that she wouldn’t cry.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry, ah, I’ll accompany you, accompany you. Good boy, don’t cry, you come down, I’ll eat with you.”

The young man’s voice is so gentle that it can drip water, that a trace of dissimilarity rises in the heart of the pool fisherman, the cold heart is ironed out, like a person walking in the darkness and dampness suddenly sees a ray of sunshine, and desperately approaches the sun.

Who would refuse the brilliant sunshine?

Abruptly smiled, blinked her dry eyes and spoke in a small voice, “Senior, I didn’t cry. You promised me, accompany me to eat together, you can’t break your promise.”

“Okay, accompany you.”

“Wait for me for a while, come down right away.”

Ji Yu casually took a jacket and put it on her body, carried the lunch box and went out, her foot injury was almost healed, she didn’t take a cane, walking a little slower is.

Ji Yu went downstairs, Auntie Chen was still busy, when she saw her coming down, she straightened up and asked, “Miss Ji Yu, are you going out?”

Ji Yu nodded, “Aunt Chen, I’m going out for a while, you leave the door open for me.”

Aunt Chen responded, “Don’t go too far, go early and come back early.”

“Okay, thank you Aunt Chen.”

Waiting for Ji Yu to walk out, Aunt Chen sighed, not knowing what to think of, but in the end, she only said, “This child, so polite.”

When Ji Yu walked out the door, Ling Yuan was already waiting outside.

Seeing her come out, he naturally took the things in her hand and looked at her eyes carefully, seeing that the ends of her eyes were slightly red and the bags under her eyes were slightly swollen, he couldn’t help but feel heartbroken.

It seems that this incident has affected her quite a lot.

He didn’t say anything after all, but instead said another thing, “If I had known you were coming down, I wouldn’t have let Liang Zihao help.”

Ji Yu said, “If senior wants to find me, there’s no need to go through brother Zihao.”

The girl was wearing a wide jacket, her hair tied high, revealing beautiful and delicate features, a pair of eyes pure and clear, because of her height, she slightly tilted her face to look at him.

Ling Yuan’s heart moved, “This is not to see your feet are not good, do not want you to run back up and down the stairs. Let’s go, let’s go to the park to eat.”

“Uh-huh.”

The two of them once again went to the park’s pavilion and found a corner to sit down that was protected from the wind.

Ling Yuan unwrapped the bag, tried the temperature of the lunch box with his hand, it was still hot, then pushed it in front of her, “Eat it, eat it while it’s hot, it’s not comfortable to eat it when it’s cold. Eat the omelette first, it has a fishy odor when it’s cold, and it doesn’t taste good.”

“Thank you senior.”

The fried omelette with golden brown color on both sides exudes aroma and looks tempting, Ji Yu takes a bite, the round egg is missing an opening, like a curved moon.

Ling Yuan watched her little mouth move and obediently finished the fried egg in small bites, thinking that the little girl was really too good.

Doing whatever she was told to do.

Such a cute little girl, how could anyone bother to put up with making things difficult for her, to doubt her?

“Senior, are you eating?”

Ji Yu saw Ling Yuan staring at her, thinking that he was also hungry, she pushed the lunchbox towards him, “There are too many noodles, I can’t finish it, let’s eat together.”

The word “we” pleases him, Ling Yuan’s tone becomes more and more gentle, “I’m not hungry, you eat, eat as much as you can, it doesn’t matter if there are leftovers.”

“Uh, good.”

I don’t know if it’s because he’s hungry or something else, it’s not the first time Ji Yu has eaten this noodle, but today’s noodle tastes better than the past few times.

Ji Yu loved eating noodles, no matter what kind of noodles, clear soup noodles, scallion oil noodles, oil splashed noodles, she loved them all. When Chi Zhao was still around, he loved to make all kinds of noodles for her to eat, but after that, when Chi Zhao left, there was no one else to make them for her to eat.

Tonight this noodle, she ate out of the flavor of Chi Zhao, that is, feel this noodle poured into the cooking person’s love, there is the taste of home.

When she thought about how Bai Yang treated herself tonight, other than saying an apology during dinner, there was nothing else, and even when Ji Yu put down her chopsticks after a few mouthfuls of rice, she made a point of glancing at her, but didn’t say anything, didn’t comfort, didn’t care.

She knew that after they ate dinner they went to Liang Zixuan’s room to look for the necklace, as if this matter was the important thing, and how she felt, whether her mood was good or not was not important.

She knew that Liang Zixuan was still young, but she was also a young girl of only sixteen years old, and her mood also needed to be explained.

As she ate the steaming hot noodles, her tears fell uncontrollably, first a few drops falling, slowly connecting into a string of beads.

She didn’t know why she didn’t even cry when she was wrongly accused of being a thief at Liang’s house, and didn’t cry when she was suspected by Bai Yang, but when she ate a few bites of noodles, her tears fell uncontrollably.

“Chi Xiaoyu, why are you crying? Are the noodles not good? If it’s not good, don’t eat it, I’ll make something else for you next time.”

Ling Yuan had been watching her and froze for a moment when he saw her suddenly drop her tears, just now in the villa, he panicked when he heard her voice change, now that the little girl was truly crying in front of him, he felt that the little girl’s tears were like undiluted sulfuric acid, and the moment they dripped down, they instantly corroded his heart.

At this moment, he felt like his heart was going to melt away in pain.

At this moment, he didn’t think of anything in his head, only one thought, that is, she was crying, he had to coax her.

“No more crying, no more crying.” Ling Yuan was a bit at a loss for words, for the first time, he had doubts about his cooking skills, “Chi Xiaoyu, don’t cry, if it doesn’t taste good, throw it away, my fault, I should have tried the flavor before bringing it to you.”

He raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face, the cold tears lingered in his fingers for a moment, but he felt that the tears were like hot lava, burning his fingers.

Ji Yu did not want to cry.

She didn’t want to cry in front of outsiders, especially in front of acquaintances, it was a very embarrassing thing.

She didn’t know why, but looking at Ling Yuan’s clumsy yet gentle consolation, as if all her grievances and dissatisfaction with life had found a vent, the tears just rolled down from her eyes, and she couldn’t stop them even if she wanted to, but instead, the more she cried, the more she cried, and how could she not stop.
