Chapter 63
The quarrel outside got louder, Su Orange struggled to break his hand, “Quickly let go.”
Zhou Yuchen had been careful all night, and in exchange for her indifference, his emotions were a bit overwhelming, and he increased his force, gasping for breath, “Don’t let go.”
“Zhou Yuchen, they’re arguing,” Su Orange asked anxiously, “Didn’t you hear it?”
“You only heard them arguing?” Zhou Yuchen’s lips against her ear, suppressing the question, “Didn’t you hear my heart breaking.”
He pulls her hand to touch her chest, painfully asking, “Can’t you feel it?”
Su Orange was startled by the temperature of his hot hand, turning her head hard to look back at him, seeing an abnormal redness on his cheeks, which made her notice the difference, she asked, “You have a fever?”
“Do you care?” Zhou Yuchen’s lips landed on the side of her neck, touching it vainly, “Su Orange, am I not going to be able to get into your eyes anymore?”
I don’t know if it was scorched by his body heat or something else, Su Orange trembled a little, her legs followed and shook, she forced down the palpitations and made herself look as normal, “Let go of me, I’ll go get you medicine.”
“Don’t eat,” Zhou Yuchen murmured, “You don’t care anyway, what’s the difference between being alive or dead.”
“Zhou Yuchen,” Su Orange got angry, her eyes flushed red, “What do you want from me?”
“I want you to forgive me,” Zhou Yuchen held her earlobe, sharpened it with his teeth and backed away, “I want you to be my girlfriend.”
“No way,” Su Orange refused without thinking, “I told you, we’re not suitable.”
“But I’ve decided on you,” Zhou Yuchen went to kiss her again, traveling along the arc of the side of her neck, his voice slightly panting, “I don’t want anyone but you.”
His kiss was too hot, Su Orange’s head tilted up high, her breathing was rapid, her chest undulating, “You’re an adult now, can you stop being so capricious.”
“Heh,” Zhou Yuchen let out a disdainful sound from his nose, “I lost you eight years ago because I was too unruly.”
“Su Orange, the same method won’t drive me away.”
He just wanted her.
It was useless for anyone to object.
Reasoning doesn’t make sense, breaking free and not being able to break free, Su Orange was wan, water vapor dripping from the bottom of her eyes, “Do you have to make things difficult for me?”
He can not afford to be difficult for her, she is sad, he will be more sad, but should insist on he still want to insist, one eight years is already enough.
“Orange, you’re the one who’s making things difficult for me.” His forehead against her shoulder, breathing put very light and slow, like helplessness more like begging, “can not be a little better for me?” Even a little.
Doomed to be a fruitless topic, Su Orange choked and said, “Then have you ever thought about why I insisted on breaking up with you?”
“You said it was because of Grandma.” Zhou Yuchen pressed her shoulders and pulled her over, seeing that the corners of her eyes were wet, he lowered his head and kissed, a very gentle kiss, “But you broke up with me because of grandma, I don’t recognize it.”
“Not all because of grandma.” Su Orange finally told the secret that had been pent up for many years, “Your family doesn’t like me, they won’t agree that we should be together.”
Su Orange recalled that year, when the old lady was at her sickest, she received a phone call from a stranger, opening the door, the man said that he was Zhou Yuchen’s father, and that he didn’t agree with them dating.
He also says that Zhou Yuchen already has someone to marry, and they are both very happy.
He warns her to stop pestering Zhou Yuchen.
Later she met with the man once, it was the day after the old lady was buried, he surprisingly sought out Nanping, they talked in the car.
The man asked her how much money she wanted to break up with Zhou Yuchen, and she said no. The man asked her if she wanted a house, and she said no, too.
She begged him to promise her to be with Zhou Yuchen, and he sneered and said, “No way, you don’t deserve my son.”
Children without parental love are destined to be humble because there is no one behind them to support them, and the man says many more sharp words, all of which are that she is not worthy of Zhou Yuchen.
He also warned her that if she didn’t break up, the consequences would be severe, including her family wouldn’t fare well.
For her teenage years, this kind of scene was the first time she encountered, she panicked, tears snapped down, but at that time she did not let go and said break up.
It was not until she saw Zhou Yuchen appear in front of her in a mess, looking at his haggard face, scarlet eyes, and hidden scars, that she made a decision.
She called him, “Okay, I’ll split.”
She originally wanted to use the gentlest way to break up, but break up where there is a gentle, break up and then be friends that is a bridge in the TV show, in reality, after the break up can only be old and dead enemies.
Fortunately, she and Zhou Yuchen are not considered enemies, at most, they are old and dead.
“Zhou Yuchen, we’ve missed eight years.” Su Orange said, “There’s no need to force to be together.”
She lobbied, “I think it’s fine now, we can eat and drink together in our spare time, that’s enough.”
“Not enough.” Zhou Yuchen shook her shoulders and said, “What I want is to be with you in the morning and evening, the one you said is not enough.”
This night’s conversation ends here, a thumping sound comes from the living room, Su Orange exits from Zhou Yuchen’s arms and pushes the door open and walks out.
In the living room, cups were broken all over the place, Yu Lele was bending down to pick them up, Su Orange came over in big strides to stop her, “Don’t move.”
She helped Yu Lele sit on the sofa, “Where is Zhang Yang?”
“Gone,” Yu Lele said with red eyes, “I scolded him away.”
“Lele, are you okay?” Su Orange looked at Lele, she looked like she was about to break.
“Not good.” Yu Lele said, “Not good at all.”
“Then do you still love him?” Su Orange held Yu Lele’s hand and said in a serious tone, “If you still love, you have to learn to let go, otherwise it’s you who suffers.”
“I don’t know, I don’t know.” Yu Lele cried out again, “Orange, I can’t afford to love him anymore.”
Su Orange patted her back, “I understand, I understand.”
Ten minutes later, Zhou Yuchen came out from the kitchen, “There’s boiled noodles in the pot, in a while you guys remember to eat, I’ll go find Zhang Yang.”
Yu Lele was wan and didn’t even have the strength to speak, leaning against the hair sand not moving.
Su Orange stood up, sent Zhou Yuchen to the door, looked back at Yu Lele, lowered her voice and asked, “Did Zhang Yang really not tell you about him and that woman?”
“No.” Zhou Yuchen analyzed, “It should be that he himself doesn’t care.”
“Not caring but still flirting casually, what is he doing.” Su Orange muttered.
Zhou Yuchen’s action of lighting a cigarette was a beat, perhaps thinking of himself, raised his head and explained, “Not every time it’s the man who takes the initiative, maybe it’s the woman who takes the initiative.”
“Will not refuse?”
“Men are born with a lack of perception.”
“Strong words.” Su Orange finished glaring at Zhou Yuchen.
Zhou Yuchen kind of understood, he can’t run away from this even seat, if Yu Lele really breaks up with Zhang Yang or something, he is probably going to be finished in Su Orange, “I’ll go find him, ask him what’s going on, and then escort him to apologize to Yu Lele.”
“Well, you ask clearly.” Su Orange admonished, “Lele looks cheerful, but is actually quite fragile, let Zhang Yang not go too far.”
“You talk about other people head on, what about us?” Zhou Yuchen’s eyes hooked as he walked towards her, “What I just said hasn’t been said.”
“I know that my father looked for you,” this point in time to say this is not too good, originally, Zhou Yuchen is trying to find a suitable time to talk properly, but he found that any time is not as good as the present moment, miss it, perhaps it will be another eight years, “why didn’t you sue me at that time? ”
He clasped her wrists and pulled her out, pressing her shoulders against the wall of the gallery, pressing closer, “Think I’m not trustworthy enough? Or have you never trusted me?”
Either way, Zhou Yuchen was saddened, after all, at the time, he liked her with all his heart.
The always-mixed-up prodigal son willingly bending over for someone, this was something that even he himself had never thought of.
Yu Lele’s cries came through the crack in the door, Su Orange looked sideways and pushed Zhou Yuchen away, “I don’t want to mention what happened before.”
“Lele is crying, I’m going to take care of her.”
This time Zhou Yuchen did not stop her, pinched her fingers, warmly reminding, “Remember to eat the noodles.”
Su Orange’s fingertips slightly paused, and very softly hmmmed.
She vaguely felt that something was different, but if she looked into it, she couldn’t tell exactly where.
When Su Orange entered the door, Zhou Yuchen pulled her back, and said with determination, “Feelings are my own business, and my family has nothing to do with it, if there is anyone looking for you in the future, remember to tell me.”
“No hiding.”
Su Orange nodded her head, “Oh.”
The door closed, she stood with her back pressed against the door for a long time, until the hotness in her fingertips disappeared she walked in.
Yu Lele was sitting with her knees hugged, her chin resting on her knees, her eyes were red and swollen, Su Orange asked her if she would eat the noodles.
She shook her head, “Don’t want to eat.”
“Want to eat something else?” Su Orange said, “I’ll go make it for you.”
“Don’t want to.” Right now even if there was dragon meat in front of Yu Lele she didn’t have an appetite.
Zhang Yang sent a weibo message to Su Orange, asking her to take good care of Yu Lele.
Su Orange replied back, [Well, I will.]
Zhang Yang explains some more, Su Orange hands her phone to Yu Lele to let her read it herself, Yu Lele’s eyes get even redder after reading it, and she keeps cursing, “Son of a bitch.”
Over there, Zhou Yuchen found Zhang Yang in the bar, the two drank for more than an hour, out, went to a place where no one, Zhou Yuchen on Zhang Yang a beat, picking face hit.
Zhang Yang ouch, said: “Brother Sam, you hit a little lighter.”
“You deserve it.” Zhou Yuchen said, “Yu Lele has been with you for eight years, and this is how you treat her.”
“I’ve said that it was a mistake,” Zhang Yang grinned, “I really have nothing with that woman.”
“It’s nothing she’ll keep pestering you.”
“It’s not like I wanted her to pester me.”
“Still don’t admit your mistake?”
“Admit it, I was wrong.”
Zhang Yang asked, “Brother Sam, what do you think?”
“What do you think, to break up?” Zhou Yuchen took out a cigarette to smoke, the star flame floating, his eyes are clear.
“Not to break up.” Zhang Yang squatting sitting on the side of the road, with his hand to pull the flowers and plants on the side, do not know where to pull, palm are given a cut, he said, “I like Lele, never thought of breaking up with him.”
“Death will not break up.”
“That’s good.” Zhou Yuchen gave him besides an idea, “Starting tomorrow, send meals and warmth three times a day. If she wants you to kneel, you kneel, anyway, you have to coax people well.”
“Okay, send.” Zhang Yang stood up with a broken look, “Isn’t it just low, I’ll be low.”
Su Orange was woken up by the doorbell early in the morning, she looked through the cat’s eye, Zhang Yang came not surprised, but why did Zhou Yuchen also come?
She went back to the bedroom to change into her loungewear, went to wash her face again, scratched her hair with her fingers and opened the door to the room.
Zhang Yang smiled and handed over the lunch box, “Su Orange, good morning.”
Su Orange paused, “What are you doing?”
“Delivering breakfast.” Zhang Yang said as he sidled in and walked straight towards the dining room.
Zhou Yuchen also wanted to enter being stopped by Su Orange, “Zhang Yang delivering breakfast, what about you? What are you doing here?”
“Chasing people.” Zhou Yuchen looks at her askance, “I’m chasing you from today.”
“Huh??” Su Orange blinked, “When did I say you can chase me?”
“Then I’m officially telling you now, I’m going to pursue you,” Zhou Yuchen relied on his long arms, easily resting against the doorframe, gazing at her with downcast eyes, “Is that okay?”
He leaned too close, Su Orange couldn’t breathe, her back was dead against the doorframe, she made a swallowing motion very hard, “Zhou Yuchen don’t go too far, I’m telling you I don’t-”
Zhou Yuchen’s index finger pressed against her lips and shushed her, his eyebrows curved up, overflowing with a charming arc, and his tear mole seemed to have become crystal bright, “You can refuse, but I have my own insistence as well.”
“I just want to chase you.”
Su Orange pursed her lips and hummed, “I won’t agree.”
“It’s okay,” Zhou Yuchen said, “I have plenty of time, take your time, there’s no rush.”
There was no way to chat, Su Orange pushed him away and walked in, Zhang Yang had already set up the dishes, he knocked on the bedroom door and said in a warm voice, “Lele, it’s time to eat.”
Yu Lele put the quilt over her head and ignored it.
Zhang Yang knocked again, “Lele, it’s your favorite Eight Treasure Congee, and tea eggs.”
Yu Lele still ignored it.
The gesture of goodwill action failed, Zhang Yang wanly walked back to the dining room, Zhou Yuchen was giving Su Orange dishes, saw him in this state, raised his eyebrows, “Still eating? If you don’t eat, you go first.”
“Why are you driving me away?”
“Seeing you turns my stomach.”
Zhang Yang sulked even more.
Zhao Xiao Xiao, as a melon eater, her eyes kept glancing towards Zhou Yuchen and Su Orange during the meal, how she looked at them, how she felt that they were a good match.
Su Orange was embarrassed by her look and knocked on the table, “Eat quickly.”
Zhao Xiao Xiao let out an oh, deliberately said, “Orange, your car is still not fixed, how are you going to go to work today? Take the subway? It’s tough.”
She was giving Zhou Yuchen a clear indication.
Zhou Yuchen understands in seconds and picks up, “Anyway, it’s on the way, I’ll give you a ride.”
“Not convenient,” Su Orange reflexively refused, “I can take a taxi.”
Zhou Yuchen didn’t say anything else, after the meal, he went to wash the dishes, Su Orange cleaned up the table, this scene overlapped with the image from years ago.
Zhao Xiaoxiao left first, Yu Lele still locked herself in the room and did not come out, Su Orange comforted her with a few words, took her bag and went out the door.
When she looked up, she saw a long figure standing against the wall, the back of his head against the wall, his head tilted up high, his eyes closed, probably because he didn’t sleep well, there were faint dark circles under his eyes.
Su Orange stared at him for a few seconds, intending to cross him directly into the elevator, not yet walked two steps by his wrist and pulled back.
Zhou Yuchen slowly lifted his eyes, his eyes were still flowing with fatigue that hadn’t dissipated, “Was breakfast good?”
“Hmm?” Su Orange froze.
“I prepared it.” He said.
In the past, Zhou Yuchen would not speak when he did this, arrogant men are the least likely to use these tactics to impress a woman’s heart, but now Zhou Yuchen has grown up, and when it’s time to show weakness, he should show weakness.
Appropriate compromises are favorable to enhance the relationship.
“You did this?” Su Orange said, “How did you have time to do this?”
“Just get up early.” He squeezed her wrist, “Tell me what else you want to eat, and I’ll continue to make it for you tomorrow.”
“No need.” Su Orange withdrew her hand and said coldly, “You don’t have to do this.”
She went into the elevator first, Zhou Yuchen followed in behind, there was no one else in the elevator but the two of them, Zhou Yuchen walked over to Su Orange’s side, trapping her in the corner.
The elevator wall reflects the intimate figure of the two, he is pressed against her and his clothes touch together.
Su Orange pushed him a bit, reminding, “Too close, farther away.”
The distance between the two has not been pulled away, the elevator door opened, behind up a lot of people, the elevator are occupied, Zhou Yuchen a low head can touch the top of Su Orange’s head, but he did not low, so not far not close to rubbing.
Su orange breathing gradually heavy up, hanging on the side of the hand subconsciously clenched tight, too difficult, no one noticed, she stepped on Zhou Yuchen’s foot a little, suggesting that he, do not come any closer.
The next second, Zhou Yuchen directly pressed into her body, seemed to smile badly.
A very short sound, not sure if it was.
Su Orange endured the palpitations and waited until the elevator traveled to the first floor, then mixed in the crowd and left.
Regarding the car ride the two had another disagreement, Su Orange was dead set on not sitting, Zhou Yuchen insisted. He has figured out a lot since last night, Su Orange’s body is like a shell, he can only break into it by getting closer and closer.
He can’t be easily defeated by her sharp words, because they are not necessarily sincere.
Unable to persuade, he simply did not persuade, regardless of the waist to pick her up, stuffed her into the car, leaned over to fasten her seatbelt, looked askance at her and said, “It’s useless, this time I will not back down.”
Su Orange was a little anxious, her eyes red, “What do you want from me?”
“I said it,” Zhou Yuchen’s eyes burned as he said word for word, “I want you to love me.”
With a click, the seatbelt was fastened and his index finger picked up her chin, making her look at him.
He asked, “Can I?”
