Chapter 115 - Coward
Tears streamed down her face, and South Bridge turned her head away from Yu Cen Ran. Outside the window, she saw dark clouds billowing, a black mass of sky. With a loud bang, raindrops fell, forming hail in the air due to the low temperature.
Inside the room, Yu Cen Ran tightly pressed down on her body. Her eyes narrowed dangerously and her expression became gloomy. No one was willing to give in.
At this moment, the phone in his bag vibrated. A bell rang, but Nanqiao didn't pick it up. She closed her eyes, as if she was refusing to communicate.
The bell rang again and again. Yu Cen Ran moved her body and reached into her bag to look for her cell phone. Yu Cen Ran frowned as she saw the caller ID. With a cold voice, she asked, "Is this the reason for your departure?"
The name displayed on the screen was Huo Ting.
South Bridge did not know why he would suddenly call at this time.
"Heh heh." Nanqiao only sneered. Her lips curled up in a mocking smile. Her expression made people's hearts go cold. "Yu Cen Ran, you don't believe me. Why did you lock me up here?"
She had had enough of love without trust, marriage without blessing, and the two families entangled in love and hate. If she continued like this, South Bridge thought, she would definitely be driven crazy.
He lowered his gaze and did not meet Yu Cen Ran's gaze. Otherwise, he would have seen Yu Cen Ran's cold expression. It was like a layer of frost had covered her face, like a hail storm outside the window!
His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he couldn't hide his anger: "Even if you move out, you won't be able to escape my palm. South Bridge, you're my woman, and without my permission, you're not allowed to go anywhere!"
His voice was cold and malicious, the veins on the back of his hand bulged!
Yu Cen Ran's temples throbbed. Her heart was filled with unquenchable anger. She raised her long legs and kicked the door open. For a long time, she was unable to quell the anger in her chest.
Housekeeper Zhang rarely saw Yu Cen Ran so angry. He was so scared that he didn't dare to move. He reacted and ran after her. "Young Master Yu, the young madam …"
The weather was cold and the South Bridge was thin. Housekeeper Zhang was worried that she would get sick, even if the room was warm enough.
With a gloomy expression, Yu Cen Ran remained unmoved. Anxiety and annoyance had already invaded her rationality. She warned the servants to keep an eye on the South Bridge while Yu Cen Ran closed the door and left without looking back.
One day passed, two days passed, and now on the third day, Yu Cen Ran could no longer calm down – South Bridge had not eaten for three days!
Housekeeper Zhang was also jumping up and down in anxiety: "Young madam's body is still wounded, is it going to hurt her body?"
Without a word, Yu Cen Ran stood up, unable to restrain the worry in her heart.
Opening the door, he saw the South Bridge lying in the middle of the bed. It was soft and weak, yet it looked weak. Once again, it was filled with rage. Yu Cen Ran took a few steps forward and arrived in front of the South Bridge.
Her long, well-defined fingers gripped her chin and pressed down hard. Her knuckles were greenish white.
"You like it?" Nanqiao's voice was cold and heavy like a sharp sword. "Do you think that just because you don't eat and protest, I will agree to let you go?"
Nanqiao's lips were cracked and dry. He had not drunk water for many days. His throat was dry. "Go out."
"You aren't even willing to talk to me? South Bridge, how did I treat you? Just what else is there for you to be dissatisfied with? I'm just so weak, making you so impatient that you might even want to die in order to force me to do so! "
"Yu Cen Ran, I'm tired." Nanqiao closed his eyes, fatigue evident in his expression. "There are too many unknowns when I am with you. At all times, you still need to persist in facing threats. Right, I'm scared, I'm really scared!"
"Hehe." Yu Cen Ran laughed coldly. "This is the reason why you want to leave. You want to use such a lousy reason to lie to me and push me far away?"
Nanqiao did not answer. His lips were tightly pursed, and he was extremely weak. He was pulled out of the bed by Yu Cen Ran. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down violently as he said, "You want to leave? Fine, I'll take you with me!"
He never hesitated when doing things. He was always swift and decisive. As long as he made a decision, there would be no room for change.
It was precisely on the issue of the South Bridge that he had decided to imprison her and keep her by his side. But now, his heart felt as if it had been slashed by a sharp blade, sharp and painful.
Her delicate arms were lacerated by the necktie. They turned white, then red and swollen. Yu Cen Ran tore them apart and dragged the South Bridge out of the room.
Even though the room was covered with a cashmere carpet, the corridor was different. The South Bridge was barefooted and the cold feeling seeped into the bones.
"Young master Yu, the young madam is not well!"
Before he could finish, Yu Cen Ran pushed him away. It was obvious that he was in an extremely bad mood!
As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived at the living room. They casually grabbed the keys to the car on the tea table. Yu Cen Ran didn't bother to pick up the woolen coat on the sofa and dragged Nanqiao out of the villa.
The black Rolls-Royce moved forward through the snow and ice at a moderate speed. The windows were open, and the freezing air was blown in by the cold wind. Snowflakes began to fall from the sky and melt into water.
When South Bridge looked up again, the car was already parked in front of the residential area. It was the home before South Bridge. Since her mother's death, she hadn't been back for a long time.
Yu Cen Ran's hand was still on the steering wheel. She didn't look at the South Bridge as she said in a cold voice, "As you wish. You're free to go back to the South Bridge."
Nanqiao didn't say anything. Both of her hands were pressed against her seat belt. She heard Yu Cen Ran say, "If you go in, you won't be coming back to the Yu Family."
Nanqiao, "…"
She knew he was angry.
She sat on the seat and turned her head to look at the door she had not seen in a long time. Her hand fell on the door handle as her chest heaved up and down.
In the end, Yu Cen Ran still couldn't bear it. She opened the car door and quickly went around to the side. She lowered her body slightly and picked up the South Bridge, then walked towards the Nan Family.
Just like the last time, this man did not have any manners. He directly kicked open the door without locking it. The room was dark without any lights on. It seemed like South Heaven had not been home for a long time.
Yu Cen Ran looked around and lowered her head to look at the person in her arms. "I'll ask again, go home, or in this cold and gloomy place."
Before he could finish his words, South Bridge had already struggled to jump out of his embrace. Using her actions, she told him that her choice still had not changed!
There was no retreat for those who were stubborn.
Yu Cen Ran stared deeply at the South Bridge. After a while, she pursed her lips and walked out of the apartment building. After he left, the South Bridge also turned and walked into the room.
He got up and walked over to the refrigerator. Inside, he found a bottle of milk that was almost out of date. He opened the straw and drank it, then glanced out at the darkening sky.
South Bridge really wanted to charge out and give Yu Cen Ran a palm. What was he going to do by standing in this world of ice and snow for an hour?!
Downstairs.
Yu Cen Ran's coat was already soaked with the snow. The cold seeped into his bones and gathered into a stream that flowed downwards. He reached out his hand to touch the icy water on his face and looked towards the window.
Suddenly, the corner of Yu Cen Ran's mouth curved into a smile as he heard South Bridge curse, "Yu Cen Ran, are you stupid? You don't even know how to dodge snow when you have a car! I'll freeze you to death! "
After swearing, he closed the curtains with a 'shua' sound, and there was no further sound from then on.
However, Yu Cen Ran was in a good mood as the South Bridge still cared about him.
Sitting in the car, Yu Cen Ran took out a cigarette and held it to her lips. Her long fingers held the lighter, turned it on, turned it off, turned it on and off. She didn't even feel like smoking.
Back and forth, Yu Cen Ran kept the lighter and was a little distracted. She took one last look at the place where the woman might appear, turned on the engine, and slowly drove away from the apartment building.
The next morning.
There was a knock on the door early in the morning, and South Bridge slept late, and was so sleepy that he pretended not to hear it, but the people on the other side kept pressing and pressing, and the doorbell kept ringing, and soon there were complaints from the residents.
Nanqiao wiped her face and wrapped her arms around her neck. She stood in front of the door and bent down. Through the peephole, he saw a familiar face. It was Zhou Yuchen.
He would never take the initiative to look for him, and South Bridge was a little surprised. He then opened the door and looked at the other party through the security door: "Early in the morning, what's the matter?"
Zhou Yuchen was also displeased. "What? Miss Nanqiao doesn't plan to invite me in for a cup of tea and then come all the way to the slums!"
He called her "Miss Nanqiao" instead of "sister-in-law" and teased her a little. "Nanqiao was annoyed by the description of" Commoner's Hole ". He brought a cup of coffee and placed it heavily in front of Zhou Yu Chen." Finish it and go! "
"South Bridge, you really know how to destroy a bridge after crossing a river. Don't throw it away after using it, right?"
His finger lightly paused, and South Bridge lifted his eyes. "What do you mean?"
Zhou Yuchen didn't beat around the bush anymore and spoke up, "How many times did Yu Cen Ran sacrifice for you? Nanqiao, you are the person that should never be forgotten. I don't think you and him are suitable. It's a pity that you are a coward while he is a paranoid person!"
His lips pressed into a straight line, South Bridge quietly listened to Zhou Yuchen say, "He can do this for you. South Bridge, if you still have a conscience, you shouldn't abandon him at this time!"
After throwing down those words, Zhou Yu Chen didn't linger any longer and walked out of the house.
It was just as baffling that he came and went. The South Bridge could not make heads or tails of it. He called Housekeeper Zhang and found out that Yu Cen Ran was sick.
He rushed back to check. Sure enough, he was lying on the bed, looking very sick.
Yu Cen Ran was tall and strong. Her body was well-built and she paid attention to her exercise. It was hard to imagine him getting sick.
Housekeeper Zhang said helplessly, "Yesterday when young master came back, he was like this. He had a fever and... he refused to see a doctor."
Nan Qiao took out her cell phone and stopped. Housekeeper Zhang was even more helpless. "The family doctor came by, but Young Master Yu didn't want to drink the medicine."
