CH 16

“I think Qingshu’s current boyfriend is excellent. Qingshu and I can be good friends, we don’t have to go on another blind date. I’m the one who doesn’t deserve Qingshu.” Xu Qi said.

Father Shen thought he was acting modest. “How can you be unworthy? He doesn’t deserve someone with your good conditions.”

“No, no, no,” said Xu Qi. “He deserves better.”

Like Hancheng!

Seeing him like this, father Shen only felt that the marriage was going to fall through, and his eyebrows furrowed in an instant.

“So where is Qingshu?” Xu Qi asked. “I’m here to find him.”

When father Shen heard this his eyebrows relaxed. He thought, “You don’t hate him?”

“Of course I don’t hate him.” Xu Qizhen said, “I’m here to ask Qingshu for help. I want to be friends with him.”

“Ask him for help?” Father Shen didn’t understand. “What can he do for you?”

“Yes.” mother Shen also wondered, “Are you looking for the wrong gege? Shouldn’t you be looking for Xiaoyu?”

Shen Qingyu looked up at him with a trace of expectation.

However, Xu Qi soon broke his expectations. “It’s not Xiaoyu but  Qingshu. Only he can help me. Can you call him out? Or is he not at home today?”

When Shen’s father and mother heard, they unconsciously looked at each other. Neither of them knew what to say.

Shen Qingyu had nothing to add but dirty water. “He ran away from home. gege Qi, don’t feel disheartened. My gege didn’t mean it. He just likes his poor ex-boyfriend too much. Even if he knows the other side doesn’t like him and cheats on him. He still ran away from home to his ex-boyfriend. My parents are worried for him. However, we can’t persuade him to come back.”

Father Shen looked at Shen Qingyu with dissatisfaction. “Xiaoyu, what are you saying ?”

Shen’s mother covered for him, “Xiao Yu is just telling the truth. Qingshu, he is really… Too disappointing!”

Xu Qi:…

Xu Qi thinks he’s not disappointing. He’s just too beyond expectations okay?!

Han Cheng has become so infatuated. Is this what ordinary people can do?!

“That’s it.” he nodded and understood. Han Cheng couldn’t let Shen Qingshu stay at home and go out every day for blind dates. He must have been shut into his own little black house to ensure that Shen Qingshu can no longer hook up with other men behind his back.

To show possession over his man, this suffocating love!

No wonder Shen Qingshu doesn’t dare to tell his family, which parent would allow this relationship. It’s too paranoid!

“That’s all right.” Xu Qi said, “After all, it’s the person Qingshu chose. Although what the other party did is wrong, it’s also out of love for him. It’s understandable. Don’t worry too much, uncle and aunt. He shouldn’t hurt Qingshu. Just that his way of loving is a little extreme.”

Father Shen:…

Mother Shen:…

Shen Qingyu:..

What the hell is he talking about? Is he helping Shen Qingshu talk up his poor boyfriend?! Isn’t he angry?!

Shen Qingyu thinks his worldview is wrong.

Xu Qi completely didn’t notice the shock of the three people in front of him. He gently spoke to mother Shen, “well, aunt Shen, can you give me Qingshu’s phone and wechat? I want to add him on wechat.”

“OK.” Shen’s mother felt that he seemed to treat his son differently from before.

She forwarded Shen Qingshu’s wechat and phone number to him. 

Xu Qi quickly sent Shen Qingshu a friend request. Seeing that he failed, he tried called him.

Shen Qingshu is writing passion code. Hearing his mobile phone ringing. He picks it up and connects it. He hears from the other side, “Qingshu, it’s me, I’m Xu Qi.”

Xu Qi? Shen Qing thought, “Oh, teacup dog, I’m busy right now. Lets talk later. Don’t interrupt my inspiration.”

With that, he hung up and continued to type on the keyboard.

Xu Qi looked at the phone that had just been hung up. For a moment, he didn’t react.

Mother Shen asked him, “What’s the matter? Wrong number? It shouldn’t be. That’s his phone number.”

“Yes, he was busy, so he hung up first.” Xu Qi said calmly.

Father Shen was angry when he heard. “He’s busy? What can he do? It’s just to accompany his rubbish boyfriend! Xiao Xu, don’t worry, I’ll call him now. See if he dares to hang up!”

Xu Qi quickly interrupted, “Don’t don’t uncle, Aren’t you harming me?! They are serious little lovers. It’s normal to be busy with his boyfriend, which proves that they have a good relationship. It’s a good thing! Don’t think his boyfriend is rubbish. His boyfriend is exceptional. Really, Qingshu’s eyes are very good, especially good. I’m not in a hurry. I’ll wait until he’s finished, before I’ll call him again. “

Father Shen:…

Mother Shen:…

Shen Qingyu:…

What is he talking about? Did they hear wrong?!

Shen Qingyu couldn’t help but bring out his newly brewed green tea: “Qi gege, what are you talking about? Who doesn’t know my gege’s boyfriend? Even if you pity my gege and speak for him, you don’t have to lie without conscience.”

“That’s because you can’t see through the truth.” Xu Qi said warmly. “Don’t look at him with preconception, but observe his whole temperament and aura.”

Even if Han Cheng deliberately pretends to be poor, you should guess that he is not an ordinary person!

“What face, what aura, what face and aura he can have when he is poor.”

Xu Qi was helpless. “Money is not the standard to measure everything. You should see the essence through the phenomenon.”1

See the essence of the richest man’s  second son past the disguise that he has no money!

“He may not wear famous brands, but they are all hand-made.”

“You think highly of him. It would be nice if he didn’t wear a $19.9 package.” Shen Qingyu despised him very much.

“It may also be the pure handmade clothes specially customized by Italian craftsmen to look similar to the 19.9 package,” Xu Qi replied.

Shen Qingyu:…

Shen Qingyu feels tired.

Xu Qi got Shen Qingshu’s phone and wechat. Since his goal was achieved, he was ready to go back.

“Since Qingshu is not here, I’ll go first. When Qingshu comes back, Xiaoyu, remember to tell me.”

Shen Qingyu: hehe hehe.

Shen’s father asks Shen Qingyu to send Xu Qi off. Shen Qingyu does so, though he doesn’t want to.

Xu Qi talked with him at the door for a while. Shen Qingyu timely handed him several cups of green tea, but Xu Qi didn’t drink it and almost broke his tea cup, wasting Shen Qingyu’s tea art in vain.

Shen Qingyu angrily returns home and looks at Shen’s father and mother sitting on the sofa discussing today’s matter.

“Does Xiao Xu like Xiao Shu, so he speaks for Xiao Shu so much?”

“I think so. Xiao Xu even defended his ex boyfriend. What other reason could there be?”

“And with conditions such as Xiao Xu’s, what needs Xiao Su’s help? It must be a cover. He wanted Xiao Su’s contact information, yet was too embarrassed.”

“So he has liked him since that blind date?” Mother Shen was pleasantly surprised.

Father Shen was also very excited, “That must be it, and since Xiao Xu didn’t show his love for Xiao Shu, even though he was interested. So Xiao Shu thought he didn’t like him, but Xiao Xu did like him.”

“I said why did the child suddenly say he would come to our house. It turned out to be so.”

“Yes, you see, Xiao Shu hung up on him, but he wasn’t angry and also defended Xiao Shu.”

“But why doesn’t he eat Xiao Su’s boyfriend’s vinegar?”2

“Hey,” Shen’s father looked like he knew it very well. “Isn’t he worried that we will scold Xiao Su? Otherwise, he wouldn’t help Xiao Su defend his trash boyfriend. I think Xiaoxu is very good and reliable. Xiao Su must be with him.”

Shen’s mother nodded, “I also think the child is good. Since Xiao Xu likes Xiao Shu, should we let Xiao Shu come back?”

“Yes,” said father Shen, “I’ll call him back now. I couldn’t tell that our Xiao Su was so charming.”

No, Shen Qingyu doesn’t understand. Why does Xu Qi like Shen Qingshu?Why let him come back!

“Dad, Qi gege didn’t mean that. He just wanted to make friends with my gege.” Shen Qingyu said anxiously.

Shen’s mother had an air of someone experienced. “You’re still young, so you don’t understand. At the beginning, falling in love starts with being friends. It’s all a euphemism, Xiao Xu is shy. Look at his attitude of protecting your gege. He must like your gege.”

“No!”

“Why not? You haven’t been in love yet. Mom knows.” Mother Shen smiled.

Shen Qingyu’s heart feels choked. Why should Shen Qingyu come back? Hasn’t he just been driven out of the house? Why are you coming back! It’s only been a few days!

He was angry but didn’t dare to show it. He had to sit down on the sofa with Mother Shen listening to her talk with clenched fists.

Shen Qingshu was typing when his mobile phone rang again. He picked it up and found that it was father Shen, so he didn’t answer.

Shen’s father called several times. Seeing that he didn’t answer, he was so angry that he threw his cell phone on the table.

Seeing this,  mother Shen called him, still Shen Qingshu didn’t answer.

“Why is this child so stubborn!” mother Shen said, “There’s no reason to stay angry with his parents.”

“Since we didn’t raise him ourselves, so he wasn’t raised well.” father Shen scolded.

Then he looked at Shen Qingyu close by. “Xiaoyu, please contact your gege and ask him to come back as soon as possible.”

“My gege doesn’t answer my phone either.” Shen Qingyu said miserably, “He doesn’t like me.”

“Then call him more. It’s rare that Xiao Xu is fond of him now. This marriage can go through. We have to hurry up.”

Shen Qingyu didn’t want to, but his good image made him unable to refuse, so he could only reluctantly nod.

Father Shen boasted, “Sure enough, the child I raised by my side is sensible. If your gege was half as good as you, I would be satisfied.”

Shen Qingyu timely served green tea. “It’s not my gege’s fault. He is used to being vulgar since childhood and doesn’t understand your mother’s pain. He will understand in the future.”

“Oh, you’re so sweet.” Shen Fu sighed.

Shen Qingyu is urged by Shen’s mother . So he can only call Shen Qingshu, but it’s the same. Shen Qingshu refuses to answer his phone.

Mother Shen advised him, “Try sending wechat.”

Shen Qingyu said helplessly: [Gege, where are you now? are you with your ex boyfriend? Come back, mum dad and I are worried about you.]

Shen Qingshu was so annoyed by their calls that he picked up his cell phone and replied: [Guess ~]

Shen Qingyu didn’t expect him to reply in seconds. He immediately began to brew and serve tea: [Are you really with your ex boyfriend? You’re too inconsiderate to our parents. You know they don’t like him.]

Tut, this tea smell.

Shen Qingshu clacked on the keyboard: [Want to know where I am?]

Shen Qingyu: [Isn’t it with your ex boyfriend?]

Shen Qingshu: [Of course not, I’m –]

He paused.

Shen Qingyu leaned closer to the mobile phone curiously, and mother Shen also approached Shen Qingyu curiously. She saw Shen Qingshu reply: [I’m in the arms of mother earth!]

Shen Qingyu:…

Shen Mu:…

Shen Qingshu laughed and went to his circle of friends: [Don’t give away the green tea you don’t want, wrap it in bread bran and fry it in an oil pan. The child next door——

The child next door threw up in an instant: So disgusting. Even dogs won’t eat it! Let’s throw it away!]

Shen Qingyu:…

Shen Qingyu said, “Fuck you, your mother almost broke out. HE wants to sit Shen Qingshu next to him and tear him apart!

The author has something to say:

Shen Qingyu: You’re scolding me, you’re scolding me!

Qingqing: Welcome to your seat~

[small theater]

Shen father and Shen mother to Xu Qi: I see! We understand!

Xu Qi:???

Shen father and Shen mother: You like Xiao Su. We already know. Don’t worry, uncle and aunt support you!

Xu Qi:!!! No, are you supporting me? You are obviously pushing me to die!!

Father Shen and mother Shen: Don’t be afraid. There’s nothing to be shy about. Uncle and aunt will help you.

Xu Qi:… Han gege, do you see my standard of kneeling? I really don’t mean that. Believe me.

Han Cheng: But you asked for his contact information. You want to contact him.

Xu Qi: That’s because I want to contact you.

Han Cheng: And then fight for love?

Xu Qi: I don’t. I’m not. I think you’re a perfect match!

Han Cheng: Really, should I believe you?

Xu Qi: Somehow he became a man who secretly loved Shen Qingshu!

Xu Qi: I’m so wronged, QAQ
