Chapter 54
Su Orange once again fled, she put together the two years of saving annual leave, softly begging for ten days of vacation, originally planned to go abroad to play around, passport are ready, and can not go.
Zhou Guiqin called to ask her to go back to Nanping immediately, saying that something big has happened.
Su orange asked to know is about the old house demolition, Nanping in the past few years, the living standard has doubled several times, followed by the rise is the price of housing.
The government wants to engage in eco-park, engage in tourism new area, Su orange that old house in the planning, or the top priority, must be demolished.
The government gives the demolition conditions are very superior, a few million demolition money or a set of three rooms and two halls in the suburbs of the big house plus a small part of the house payment.
Either way, it’s a good idea.
The house is when the old lady left, 18 years Su orange transfer to his name, until today.
Originally, everything was calm, but a demolition policy fell, and a new house and money, Su Liangshu side can not sit still, get the news rushed back to Nanping in a hurry to fight for the house.
Zhou Guiqin has figured out a lot of things over the years, rather than letting himself live unhappily, it is better to be happy every day.
This insight is also because of the 18 years of the disease, when she almost died, after recovery, everything is open, divorce is nothing, as long as she is good, Su orange is good, on the line.
So, these years, she and Su orange relationship is quite good, those because of the divorce made a mess of things they did not bring up again.
Su orange did not question her that year is not intended not to her, Zhou Guiqin also did not pull Su orange to explain the idea at that time, anyway, the past is the past.
They are mother and daughter, they depend on each other for life is quite good.
As for Su Liangshu, it is not necessary to contact.
This point they have done, in a year and Su Liangshu contact less than once.
As for Su Liangshu, he has his own son, but also completely regardless of Su Orange, love how to do it, he pretends not to have had this daughter.
The two families, who have been at peace with each other, have once again disagreed over the house.
Su Liangshu early in the morning to bring people to the house, said, this is the old lady’s is his, he asked to split the property.
Zhou Guiqin has never seen such a man who is not a thing, pointing his nose and asking him: “Do you have a bad conscience, this is the old lady’s orange, what do you mean by your.”
Su Liangshu did not listen, also not with Zhou Guiqin quarrel, chair a sit, crossed his legs and said: “lawyers I have brought, today I must see Su Orange.”
Su orange good annual vacation did not go out to play, back to Nanping to break the case came.
She was no longer the timid and cowardly little girl back then, her career in the workplace had given her a great deal of self-confidence, she looked at the few people in front of her, raised an eyebrow and asked the lawyer, “May I ask, what is the crime of breaking and entering?”
The lawyer glanced at Su Liangshu and covered his lips and coughed lightly.
Su Liangshu was furious and slapped the table, “What do you mean by trespassing, this is my home, my home!”
Su Orange said in a faint voice, “Your house? Where is the evidence? Show me the house book.”
“You–” Su Liangshu where to come from the house book, he is now the most regret is when the soft heart to give the house to Su Orange, glaring said, “Don’t talk to me about the house book, I am the house book, this house is your grandpa when the money to buy, how to count can not be counted on your head, this house is your grandfather back then, how to count can not be counted on your head, this house is the house of your grandfather. count can’t be counted on your head, this is mine.”
Su orange didn’t want to theorize with him, took the copy of the house book and showed it to the lawyer, “You know the law, who do you think this house belongs to?”
Su Liangshu didn’t tell the lawyer the truth before, he kept saying that the house was his, the lawyer’s face immediately turned green when he saw this, he stood up, “Mr. Su, I can’t fight this lawsuit, you’d better find someone else.”
The lawyer said, turned around and walked away.
Su Liangshu hurriedly chased up, “Eh, Wang Law don t go ah, don t go ah, this house is really ……”
They walked out a long way, can still hear Su Liangshu in that defense, mouthing that the house is his.
Zhou Guiqin cursed at the door, “What a thing.”
Su Orange pinched his brow, “Mom, next time you see him, don’t argue with him, wait for me to deal with it.”
Su Orange is now Zhou Guiqin’s backbone, what she says is what she says, “I’m not afraid of you being busy here?”
“Eh.” Zhou Guiqin said, “Aren’t you usually bad at taking leave? How come the leader approved it so quickly this time?”
In the past, when Su Orange was told to do something, Su Orange’s usual rhetoric was that she was busy, busy, busy, and the leader did not grant leave.
Su Orange’s eyes flickered, pinched her right earlobe, and Gu Zuo asked, “What’s stewing on your stove, it smells like it’s burnt.”
“My pig’s feet.” Zhou Guiqin rushed into the kitchen with an ouch.
Su Orange rushed all the way here without drinking any water, at this moment there was no one in the living room, she sat paralyzed on the sofa, the cell phone in her bag vibrated, she found out, Zhao Xiao Xiao sent her a WeChat.
XX: [Something happened.]
XX: [Just now the director was called by Mr. Su to be reprimanded, saying that Party A is not satisfied with the plan and wants to redo it].
XX: [The director came out and gave Song Charming a lecture, and is now lecturing others.]
XX: [It’s good that you’re on vacation, or else you’d be the one who’s getting a lecture today.]
XX: [By the way, why are you suddenly on vacation?]
Why did you suddenly take a vacation?
Su Orange’s fingers holding the phone shrunk, the scene from last night surfaced in front of her eyes, she was blocked by a man in the restroom, he was close to her back, his fingers slid down from her shoulders to her waistline, and pinched her very hard through her clothes.
His fingertips were amazingly hot as always.
At that instant, her heart shrunk hard as well.
Zhao Xiao Xiao didn’t wait for a long time for Su Orange’s reply, and then sent two more.
XX: [Couldn’t be hiding from that ex-boyfriend of yours, Zhou Yuchen.]
XX: [I’ve wanted to ask you for a long time, are you still unable to forget him?]
Su Orange’s eyes stared at the cell phone screen, her thoughts sunk deeper, can’t forget?
Zhao Xiao Xiao was still groping for fish and sent another one, [Don’t deny it, I saw it all.]
I don’t know if it’s because the phone vibrated her palm, or the thought of that person’s heart was shaking, her hand shook.
Orange: [What did you see?]
XX: [That empty glass bottle and jar on your desk, and those two broken anklets in the drawer, he gave them to you, didn’t he?]
XX: [You can’t say it wasn’t, last time I even saw you staring at them, your eyes were red.]
Su Orange’s bad mood was completely hooked by Zhao Xiaoxiao’s words, there is no one’s breakup is no waves, that year that breakup shocking even the teacher was alarmed, Professor Hu personally came to be a lobbyist before the matter was suppressed.
In the eyes of outsiders, like a long time to foresee her end, know that she broke up, and even a few points of Schadenfreude.
From time to time, she will also use words to ridicule her not self-importance, see, in the end, or be dumped.
For her, those days are the “old days” that she doesn’t want to remember.
Before Su Orange could reply to Zhao Xiao Xiao, Zhou Guiqin walked in, saw a small thin cut on the corner of Su Orange’s lips, and asked her: “What’s wrong? On fire?”
Su Orange subconsciously reached out and touched it, just now her emotions were disturbed by other things and she didn’t feel any pain, but now when she gently touched it, it hurt a little.
She nodded her head, “Uh-huh.”
“How to get on such a big fire ah.” Zhou Guiqin scrutinized, “The mouth is also too big, do you want to buy medicine and apply it?”
“No need.” Su Orange tilted her head a bit, afraid that Zhou Guiqin would see something.
Zhou Guiqin really saw it, raised her eyebrows and asked, “Are you really on fire?”
“Otherwise?” Su Orange turned around to avoid Zhou Guiqin’s line of sight and went to the kitchen to pour water to drink.
Zhou Guiqin followed behind and inclined her head to survey, smiling quite intriguingly, “Orange, you wouldn’t have a boyfriend, would you?”
“Cough cough cough.” Su orange even coughed for a long time, drank water also did not immediately stop, and after a while before stopping, dense eyes said, “Mom, you talk nonsense.”
“How is it that I am talking nonsense ah.” Zhou Guiqin hooked his lips and laughed, pointing to the corner of her lips, “a few days ago, next door to the small Li here also broke, and then listened to the small Li’s mom said, was bitten by his girlfriend. By the way, it’s in the same location as this break of yours.”
She tentatively asked, “You wouldn’t have been bitten by anyone here too, right?”
All Zhou Guiqin’s energy now is to find a boyfriend for Su Orange, and if she doesn’t find one, she will really become an older leftover woman.
She was twenty-seven years old.
“Mom, what are you talking about.” Su Orange came out of the kitchen with a cup of water.
Zhou Guiqin was still following her, “You really don’t have one? If you don’t have one, I can introduce it to you, our town is so demolished, ah, a lot of people have turned over, are ten million level, although it is not as good as those rich men in the north of Beijing, but it is not bad either.”
“I’ve got my eye on several, wait, I’ll go get you some photos.”
Zhou Guiqin went back to the bedroom to get the photos, Su Orange put down her water cup, raised her chin and said, “Mom, I remembered, I still have things I haven’t bought, I’ll go buy them.”
Saying this, she grabbed her cell phone and bag and left the house.
She didn’t even stop when Zhou Guiqin called out to her.
Zhao Xiao Xiao was probably too bored and sent another message to Su Orange.
XX: [How many days are you taking off for this vacation?]
Orange: [Ten days.]
XX: [So long?]
Orange: [There’s something going on in my hometown, so I’ll go back after I’ve dealt with it].
XX: [Then…your ex-boyfriend?]
Orange: [It doesn’t matter anymore.]
XX: [It doesn’t matter you still don’t want to throw away the things he gave you?]
Su Orange paused in her steps, looked at the shadow on the ground for a while, and returned: [Well, I’ll throw it away when I get back.]
XX: [Don’t force it, I bet you won’t throw it.]
Orange: [Why?]
Zhao Xiaoxiao sends a voice this time, I think it’s from the restroom, and you can still hear the echo.
XX: “Because you can’t get enough of him.”-
After Zhang Yang saw Zhou Yuchen, the words he had been holding back finally found a vent, “Brother Sam, how long have you been back, why are you only contacting us. What’s the matter, split up, not even recognizing us anymore.”
The room is very dark, Zhou Yuchen put himself into the sofa, sitting posture lazy casual, he still likes to play with the lighter, the lid suddenly open and close, the flame suddenly bright and dark, reflecting his face is also suddenly bright and dark.
Those eyes are as deep and charming as ever, the tail of the eyes lightly raised, hooked out a touch of soulful arc, speaking voice is a lot more calm than eight years ago.
“How.”
“I see you are.” Zhang Yang holding a glass of wine in his hand, tilted his head and drank a mouthful, the corner of his lips did not wipe, continued to say, “How many messages have I sent you, how a piece of it is not back, the phone is also, never answer.”
“The cell phone is lost.” Zhou Yuchen said in a faint voice, “There is no way to replace the phone card.”
Why did he lose it? Why there is no way to reissue he did not mention, but look at the look this experience should be very bad.
Zhang Yang’s throat knots rolled, just about to say something, Zhao Chuan gave him a kick, whispering to indicate that he can not mention which pot is not open, can not say something else.
Zhang Yang shrugged his shoulders, “You do it, you say something else.”
Zhao Chuan laughed, “Brother Sam, are you still going this time back?”
“Not sure.” The lighter turned around in Zhou Yuchen’s hand and set it right again, “Depends on the situation.”
“Our Jingbei development over the years is quite good,” Zhao Chuanyou said, “Why do you have to go to foreigners to generate income, want to generate income to the motherland to generate income how good.”
Zhou Yuchen laughed lightly.
Zhang Yang saw him laugh, also followed the smile, but he this person, after eight years or not much progress, speak but not brain, do not allow to mention what not to mention.
“Brother Sam, are you still single now?” He asked.
Zhou Yuchen’s fingers playing with the lighter stopped, lifted his eyelids, “Uh-huh.”
Zhang Yang smiled, “I’m also single.”
Zhou Yuchen paused, “Aren’t you with Yu Lele?”
“Hey, we broke up.” Zhang Yang added, “Just last week.”
It was a common occurrence for this pair of spouses to break up, just like a girl having her period, no, more frequent than her period, several times a month.
“What was it about this time?” Zhao Chuan didn’t even bother to ask.
“It’s still not her,” Zhang Yang frowned and said, “This is precisely because of Su Orange.”
This time it was Zhou Yuchen’s turn to levy a freeze, his eyes moved away from the lighter and gazed at Zhang Yang.
Zhao Chuan vigorously gave Zhang Yang a wink, asking him not to mention it, but Zhang Yang didn’t see it, and sat down next to Zhou Yuchen, and vocally told him what happened.
“Aren’t all of us in pairs, Lele see Su Orange has been single is very worried, insisted that I introduce Su Orange to a boyfriend, and then there are really so two in our company that can hold their own, I will go along with it and introduce it.”
He said and also looked at Zhou Yuchen, saw his expression as usual without the intention of punching someone, continued to add fuel to the fire.
“Then they met and later decided to date.”
“Who knows that after dating for a month, it was discovered that the man had gotten engaged in his hometown and was planning to get married at the end of the year.”
“After Lele found out about this, she scolded me and had to break up with me.”
Zhang Yang asked Zhou Yuchen, “Brother Sam, just tell me if I’m wronged, I didn’t know that man was like this ah.”
He bla bla bla said a whole lot, Zhou Yuchen finally spoke, the line of sight from the corner of the eye this end to that end, eyes solemn cold, “do not know anything you introduced the other party to her, I see you this breakup is not wrong at all.”
Zhao Chuan rubbed his face, eight years, the old Zhang is really more and more stupid, this moment to mention what to Su orange introduced boyfriend ah, this is not looking for scolding it.
Zhang Yang bitter face, “Brother Sam this can not be said ah, I also do not want Su orange has been single ah, every day in addition to work is work, looking at people strange heartache.”
Secretly, the corner of his lips pulled down.
Zhou Yuchen did not see, he threw the lighter off the coffee table in front of him, his arm resting casually on the armrest, asked what he had long wanted to ask: “Is she doing well?”
“Not good,” Zhang Yang said, “Scum father, spicy mom, there is a stepmother who has nothing to do, stepbrother who does not learn. The whole rag-tag combination, you think she can be good.”
Zhao Chuan acted as if he had never known Su Orange was so miserable, matching, “Is Su Orange so miserable?”
His expression was even more exaggerated as he rubbed his face twice in a row, his face turning red as he lamented, “If Brother Sam hadn’t broken up with her back then, maybe she wouldn’t have had such a hard time.”
“Ai, how pathetic.”
Zhou Yuchen’s fingers sunk into his palm, pinched out traces of raw, but there was no reaction on his face, his eyes were light and his voice was cold.
“Don’t tell me anything about her in the future.”
Su Orange received a phone call from Yu Lele before she went to bed, complaining on the other end, and crying and saying that she broke up with Zhang Yang.
Su Orange asked her, “How many times is this?”
Yu Lele lightly hummed, “The last time, we really broke up.”
Su Orange did not persuade, because she knows that Yu Lele and Zhang Yang really can not be divided, these two people are the head of the bed quarrel bed and, after a few days quasi nothing.
This eight years are not all like this.
The two of them are just quarreling at the head of the bed, and the bed is peaceful, after a few days, it will be fine.
Unlike other people, break up only mentioned once, once after the old dead.
Su orange side no sound, Yu Lele called her several times, “orange, what are you doing?”
Su Orange returned to her senses, “There seems to be a cat outside.”
Yu Lele didn’t answer and said something else, “Right, I heard that Zhou Yuchen came back, is it true?”
“Uh-huh.” Su Orange pursed her lips and returned, “It’s true.”
“You guys have met?”
“Uh, met.”
“How was it?”
“Fine.”
Yu Lele’s voice was suddenly put very softly, and a bit stammered, “That…Orange, there’s something I need to tell you.”
“You say.” Su Orange pulled the quilt over her body.
“I heard that Zhou Yuchen came back specifically to get married this time.” Yu Lele said, “You also know the object of his union, it’s Sun Xia.”
“Dang.” Su Orange’s fingers loosened and the cell phone fell to the ground.
Yu Lele’s voice could still be heard, “Orange, are you alright?”
Only after a long time did Su Orange react, she poked out her body to pick up the cell phone and pressed it against her ear, “Lele, I have some headache, let’s not chat first.”
Yu Lele hurriedly said, “Okay, then you sleep.”
The call ended, Su Orange poked open the cat avatar that she hadn’t contacted for many years, hesitated for a long time, and typed two words, [Congratulations.]
To be married.
After sending some regret, hastily withdrew, who knows the next second there is a weibo in.
ZYC: [I’m downstairs in your house, come down.]
