"Hey! I've figured it out. After my mother's birthday party is over, I will divorce Li Chengmei."
The moment his friend Zhou Mingyao answered the phone, Zheng Yucheng uncontrollably poured out all the depression he had accumulated for many years.
"Brother Yucheng, I did say that you have to decide your own life that day. But the reason you just gave me, I think it is so ridiculous! My sister-in-law is just trying to control the situation between the two children, herself and you. Between them, she chose to protect the first two first. In fact, it is not wrong for her to do so. The bodies of newborns are immature, and if there is even a little bit of virus intrusion, there is a chance of suffering from intractable diseases. The eldest daughter Studying is very stressful, and if you fall behind a little, your career will plummet. In addition, my sister-in-law is a woman who has a family and a career. She needs a healthy body, which is understandable. "
"I agree with you, marriage is indeed not a child's play."
Zhou Mingyao's dull (sleepy) voice actually didn't create much waves in Zheng Yucheng's heart.
"But she can't always ignore me habitually! If I die of illness tonight, and I don't even have a relative around me to collect my body, do you know how desperate I feel now!" Zheng Yucheng said to The phone shouted like a loud cry.
"That's why I advise you to take better care of yourself! If you know how to cook and use a washing machine, you should be able to avoid getting sick a few times as long as you have enough food and clothing."
Although what Zhou Mingyao and Pei Kemian said was true, it still sounded boring to Zheng Yucheng who was so ill that he was confused.
"They said they were my best friends, but they didn't understand my feelings at all. They are not two cold pieces of wood." After hanging up the phone, Zheng Yucheng complained breathlessly and pressed the pillow tightly on his head.
"It's also dinner, why can't steamed buns and noodles! People who eat ready-made food are picky about how to prepare the food. If you don't eat it, you're not hungry enough!", "I told you I'm very pressed for time! Hang it in the closet Half of the clothes are yours, why do you have to wear the ones that haven't been dried? If you make yourself sick, don't blame me for not taking care of you!", "Are you blind? Can't see me surrounding my children every day? , How tiring it is to be a customer, right! If you don’t know how to do it, don’t do it. It will make the kitchen dirty. In the end, you are not causing trouble for me! Get out!”, “What trouble are you making again? Get back to your place. ! And your food is in the refrigerator, you know how to use the microwave! Try heating the plastic bag for me again!"
I searched everywhere and couldn't find even a trace of food remains. Looking at the neat but empty refrigerator, Zheng Yucheng really wanted to cry. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the corners of his eyes turned red the moment he turned around.
"Senior Yucheng, physical illnesses will be cured after taking medicine. But mental illnesses won't work. If you really can't sleep tonight, just send me a message."
Unlike Song Joo-hyun who spoke softly, his wife Lee Seung-mi's phone was turned off all night. In front of Zheng Yucheng, who was burying his head in the quilt again, he once again saw Lee Seung-mi holding up his wet high-end shirt, face flushed and trembling all over. . Gradually, his eyes became as heavy as lead, and Zheng Yucheng, who fell asleep again, looked peaceful and peaceful. As he murmured, Li Chengmei, whom he had just met for the first time, was blushing all the way to his ears, which made his heart beat faster.
"Brother, I finally found you. It turns out that we have always been alumni of the same school!" The acacia trees shrouded in the morning light were like green mirrors. Li Chengmei walked back and forth between the mirrors, and finally turned in circles. Stand still in front of Zheng Yucheng.
"Oh! The look in your eyes probably means that you have forgotten me. My name is Li Chengmei from the 2nd Class of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. You helped me conquer a wolf on the bus a few days ago! Can't you remember that too? ?" Li Chengmei, who reacted immediately, said proudly. For a while, the classmates sitting on the bench followed her with their eyes, and finally they all fell on Zheng Yucheng.
"I'm impressed, but in such a big school, how did you find me?" Although today she wore a ponytail and a goose-yellow knee-length dress, and she looked much purer than yesterday, Zheng Yucheng still had a crush on her. Not a good impression.
"That day at the police station, when brother you talked about school and departments, I listened carefully! Although I have been deliberately looking for you in various ways, it is really amazing that I can bump into you while walking on the playground. What a fate!" Li Chengmei looked at the school badge on Zheng Yucheng's chest and said mischievously.
"Fate does exist! But why did you come here today? Tell me to testify, or to help you fight against injustice!"
I have to admit that back then, Lee Seung-mei was indeed a girl with good looks, slender figure, independent thinking, a free and unrestrained personality, and a voice as melodious as a nightingale. But at that time, Song Joo-hyun was still Zheng Yucheng's rib on the top of his heart. Therefore, his tone was a little impatient.
"No, because I have a neat personality that doesn't like to owe favors! So I just want to treat you to a meal." Li Chengmei happily picked up her bag.
"No, I'm not in the mood to eat. So just treat it as if you've already eaten! By the way, I work part-time in the school cafeteria and in a nearby store. You'd better not hinder me with the excuse of repayment! "Zheng Yucheng's voice was as cold as nails, and Li Chengmei seemed to be nailed to the spot.
"And isn't your skirt too short? Try to wear something longer in the future. Because next time, there won't be a person like me who watches the fun and doesn't mind the big deal to stand up for you!" For a girl with a distinctive personality For a person, being ignored is simply a denial of the whole person, which is very extreme, but Li Chengmei's face is like a sponge absorbing water. After being stunned for a moment, she immediately smiles again and lingers around Zheng Yucheng again like a butterfly. is all around.
"Brother, please, let's go have a meal together. I just want to thank you for what happened the day before yesterday."
Zheng Yucheng raised his legs to leave, but Li Chengmei quickly chased him and surrounded him.
"I said no!"
Yucheng saw Chengmei's thoughts and replied coldly.
"Brother, I promise that after eating this meal, I won't look for you all over the world again, okay?"
Zheng Yucheng has always treated Li Chengmei's stalking pursuit calmly. Any other girl would be eager to wipe away the dust that touches her nose, but Li Chengmei is that special case. It seems that the more clueless she is, the more she stimulates her desire to explore. In the process of repeated observation and continuous testing, she quickly mastered the key and flexibly changed the relationship between two people according to her own style. towards.
"Brother, when recruiting part-time employees for an ice cream shop, the most important selection criteria should be the strength of the arms and the coordination of the limbs! I see that brother over there is not as relaxed as you when scooping ice cream balls, but his movements are more graceful!" Lee Seung-mi boasts about scooping ice cream.
It has to be said that Li Chengmei is a person who likes to make her own decisions. In order to create a complete opportunity for rejection, Zheng Yucheng began to wash all the buckets that had just been emptied in turn, making a sound so loud that even the floor shook.
"Oh my god! Brother, your arms must be very sore now. I see the veins on the back of your hands are jumping!" She exulted herself, and soon she felt hungry. Li Chengmei started to look at her with pitiful eyes. To Zheng Yucheng.
"Look at me, I'm useless. I won't stop until you leave!"
Li Chengmei rolled her eyes at the ceiling, and then looked inexplicably at the pockmarked school girl who was always smiling.
"Um, brother, are you free this weekend?! Let me ask you to go roller skating!" As if she wanted to leave, Li Chengmei grabbed her bag with both hands and stood from the side of the counter to the opposite side.
"I'm afraid of falling."
"Oh! Let's go see a movie then." Zheng Yucheng walked from the counter to the employee lounge behind with his head held high. Li Chengmei grabbed the door curtain and squeezed in with him.
"I shed tears when facing the light, and I also have intermittent tinnitus. You can go there by yourself! By the way, the door over there says no entry for idlers. You'd better keep a distance from me."
"Oh, that's how it is."
Li Chengmei covered her mouth angrily, but her voice did not stop.
"Then let's go for an outing in the park together, and then I'll make up for the food we owe. Which day is more convenient for you, Saturday or Sunday?! Just half a day or three hours will do!" Li Chengmei asked again like a reporter. Zheng Yucheng, Pei Kemian and the pockmarked school girl went out to deliver food together as if they had already discussed it with Li Chengmei.
"I go to church on Saturday and go to the temple on Sunday. It's a full day! And I have to abstain from eating a lot!"
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Li Chengmei straightened her back nervously and frowned.
"Well! If we calculate the time this way, we can only go to a midnight movie and then go to a late-night restaurant! By the way, I heard that there is a newly opened toilet bento where you can watch and eat at the same time! There was a movie recently that was quite good. , call the ace to arrive!"
"I've seen it."
It became increasingly difficult to reach an agreement, but neither of them would give in.
"Are you sure? It's just a poster, it hasn't been released yet?!" Li Chengmei's voice finally became a little jerky.
"For someone like me who hates movies, even listening to the radio is a disaster."
From the melancholy eyebrows, it could be seen that Li Chengmei was very disappointed, but she soon raised her head again with infinite longing in her eyes.
"By the way, where is my brother's home? Are you from Ancheng? My family lives at the entrance of Qingtan Alley..."
"Hey! Girl! Do you know that you have seriously hindered my work? If the boss finds me chatting with customers, I will be fined. Can you pay it for me?!"
Zheng Yucheng dug out the entire strawberry ice cream bucket, forced the last ball into Li Chengmei's hand, and made a gesture to ask her to come out.
"How pitiful! If your boss always catches you chatting with me, will he fire you?!"
"Yes." Yucheng complained sheepishly.
"Yes! I'm so happy!"
Li Chengmei's interest was getting higher and higher, especially the way she hit the cup with a spoon and danced, which made Zheng Yucheng dizzy with anger.
"I asked, do you have any conscience? You have almost made a guy who has nothing to do with you today out of a job, but you actually smile so brightly! Really, I really do! I feel sick just thinking about it now. I'm so sorry, I wouldn't have helped you if I had known."
In front of girls who stalk and nag endlessly, only men can cry without tears, speak incoherently, or even howl to the sky.
"By the way, brother, how did you know that I like strawberry flavor?" Looking at Zheng Yucheng, who was drunk and wild like a maniac, Li Chengmei directly pretended to be a drunk and lustful nympho.
"Do you know? How excited I was when I saw you specially choose the strawberry flavor among the many flavors of ice cream! It feels like you understand me very well."
When Li Chengmei said this, a panicked look appeared on Zheng Yucheng's face.
"That's not the case!" Yucheng stared at Chengmei for a long time, and said shyly, contrary to his usual coldness.
"Then if my brother is expelled, come to my house and be my tutor." Li Chengmei said carefully.
Zheng Yucheng couldn't help frowning, but there were sparks in his eyes.
"Because I am really not interested in mathematics. I have only half-understood it since I was in the fifth or sixth grade of elementary school. When I took the college mathematics exam recently, I completely turned into a fool. My mother knows the importance of graduation. , are you currently looking for tutors all over the world for me?"
"Tuition? I'm only two years older than you, how can I give it to you..." Zheng Yucheng replied, imitating her tone and tone.
"Brother, why are you always obedient and disobedient?" Li Chengmei, who was standing in front of the bookstall in the ice cream shop, silently flipped through the magazine twice and raised her head to look at Zheng Yucheng from time to time. "Didn't I just tell you that the actual gap between us is only two terms? And as long as you are willing, brother, I can help you get double your salary." As soon as the words fell, Li Chengmei covered it with a magazine face, and secretly winked at Zheng Yucheng.
"Double, are you sure it's double?" Zheng Yucheng's face suddenly became surprised, but he quickly recovered and scratched the back of his head with his fingers. "Oh my, it's such a headache! If I have to do tutoring, I have to review my homework again."
"Since brother feels more pressure, let's triple it. And there are two classes a week, each class is one and a half hours long. Brother, do you think this is okay?"
Li Chengmei fixed her gaze on Zheng Yucheng's face, and Zheng Yucheng nodded with a smile, as if to tell her that the sense of alienation she had maintained before was worthless in the face of the easily obtained remuneration.
