Chapter 14

“Why are you working here, experiencing life?”

Shen Youlin's face darkened, his expression stubborn and forbearing, he turned his head and said in a muffled voice: “My family...went bankrupt.”

Yu Shu was instantly complicated - beautiful women in distress, whoever can resist it!

"Let's add each other on WeChat, I'll give you the down jacket money."

Twenty-eight thousand, enough to live for several months. Yu Shu doesn't know how to comfort people, but sending a huge sum is better than any words of comfort at times like this.

Shen Youlin didn't refuse, took out his phone and added Yu Shu's WeChat, and readily accepted her transfer.

Shen Youlin's WeChat nickname was Shen Ba Cha, his profile picture was a Samoyed sticking out its tongue, peeking out more than half of its head from the bottom left corner, the furtive peeking look of the dog was very cute.

Perhaps girls are born to like fluffy animals, Yu Shu couldn't help but click to enlarge the picture: "Is this your pet? Very cute."

"Yeah, her name is Dou E."

Yu Shu raised her eyebrows: "That's quite an unusual name."

"Because with her around, it snows even in June." Shen Youlin spread his hands helplessly, "She sheds so much fur that the house is covered everywhere."

Yu Shu's alarm interrupted their conversation, it was time for her to pick up her dad from the hospital.

"I'm leaving now, I have to go." Yu Shu took her shopping bag and slowly organized her words, "You... don't be too upset either, life still goes on, things will pass eventually."

Yu Shu felt those few sentences were frivolous, like oil bubbles floating on chicken soup, not impactful at all, even a bit greasy, but she really couldn't come up with anything more chicken-soupish and nutritious.

Shen Youlin's eyes instantly turned red, and he pursed his lips slightly: "Okay. You're the first person to say these things to me."

Poor thing, he must have suffered a lot of grievances and setbacks.

Yu Shu suddenly felt a little heartache, the higher you climb the harder you fall, how many people must have kicked him when he's down.

"Let me treat you to a meal when we both have time." Shen Youlin smiled again, his smile tinged with sadness, "Just... pretend we are making friends over our poverty."

"Small in size, but quite a fierce temper." Shen Youlin refastened his seatbelt, and said on WeChat: "I'm sorry okay, I didn't mean to lie to you."

These words really lacked persuasive power, even he didn't believe them himself.

He had deliberately teased her.

Shen Youlin had imagined Yu Shu's reaction - she might ignore him, she might keep scolding him, or naively and silly believe his words, but what he saw was a red exclamation mark, and -

Elm Tree Burls has enabled friend verification, you are not yet friends, please send a friend request first, can chat after the other side accepts. Send friend request.

Shen Youlin's brow furrowed tightly: "What a fiercely big temper."

Yu Shu shoved her phone angrily into her bag, leaning back sullenly in the car seat. The more she thought about not cursing skillfully earlier, the more sulky she felt.

The angrier she got the more she thought about it the angrier she got!

Her already uncomfortable stomach protested even more strongly - her stomach condition hadn't acted up in a long time, so she didn't realize the severity at first.

By the time they reached the hospital, her face was white from pain, frightening Yu Feng so much he dropped his cane, yelling for the doctor.

"It's fine." Yu Shu stopped him, "I'll take some medicine when I get home."

With so many people at the hospital, she'd be in pain to death before even seeing the doctor and getting medication.

Yu Shu didn't eat a bite of lunch, took the medicine with warm water and went to sleep until nightfall.

At night, Yu Feng carefully cooked all her favorite dishes, but Yu Shu barely ate two bites, mashing the meatballs in her bowl into mush with her chopsticks, her little mouth chattering nonstop.

Yu Feng ladled her some soup and placed it by her hand, silently praying in his heart for whoever had offended Yu Shu - don't let Yu Shu get hold of him again.

Mother and daughter were the same, bottling up anger made them irritable, venting made them feel better, and afterwards they absolutely wouldn't bring up old grievances again, but if someone wronged them and they didn't get immediate retribution on the spot, they would bear the grudge forever, biding their time until they got a chance for endless reprisal.

To this day, Mrs. Ye Ping still resented him for forgetting to buy her the chicken feet snack she had craved when pregnant with Yu Shu.

"Who upset you?" Yu Feng asked gingerly.

Yu Shu glared - very much her mother's true heir, full of intimidation: "A stupid f*ck!"
