Chapter 67: Time and Rain
Shi Yulu didn't go home, but turned to Gu's Group instead.
It is well known that she is a consultant respecting his fiancée, and some people even refer to her directly as "the future young lady of the Gu family" behind their backs.But in Gu's Group, a small front desk stopped her: "Hello, who do you want?"
Shi Yulu looked at her, and said three words indifferently: "Respect, consultant."
She knows that she has a soft personality, so she tries to dress in the direction of a mature professional as much as possible. Coupled with Shi Yulu's gorgeous appearance, she well conceals her gentle nature.
The front desk was bluffed by her, smiled embarrassingly, and still insisted: "Mr. Gu said that no matter who is looking for him, he must make an appointment first."
Shi Yulu raised her eyebrows: "Then you tell him that Shi Yulu is here."
The front desk made a call and replied: "Mr. Gu is in a meeting right now. If Miss Shi doesn't mind, please take a rest in the reception room first."
Shi Yulu refilled three cups of coffee in the reception room before seeing the consultant Jing.
"Miss Shi, what's the matter?" He stood upright, not intending to have a long conversation with her.
Instead, Shi Yulu leaned back on the sofa and looked up at her: "Is Mr. Gu busy?"
Consultant Jing smiled, "The company has a new project recently, and I don't want to mess it up, so I can only keep an eye on it."
"New project." Shi Yulu took a sip of coffee, "Even Mr. Gu is so interested in the new project, why haven't you heard anything about it?"
Consultant Jing thought her words were funny, and said with a low smile: "If Miss Shi hears about my Gu family's actions, then I will be really nervous."
Shi Yulu also smiled: "Yes."
"Miss Shi is used to going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so what is the important thing here today?"
Shi Yulu: "Mr. Gu may not remember, but no matter what, I am also your legitimate fiancee. Does Mr. Gu think it's appropriate to visit your fiance?"
Advisor Jing narrowed his eyes: "Regarding this matter, I thought that Miss Shi already knew my attitude very well."
He told Shi Yulu twice that he already had a girlfriend, and took Ruan Lutang to the dinner party. Although he failed to announce her identity in public as planned, his attitude of insisting on breaking the marriage was very clear.
"I know Mr. Gu's attitude, but I don't know what the Gu family's attitude is."
"What do you mean?"
Shi Yulu put down the coffee: "When we got engaged, our two families made an agreement. On the wedding day, the Gu and Gu families will formally form an alliance, exchange resources, complement each other and help each other."
"If our marriage contract is no longer counted, does that mean that this agreement is also—and void?"
Advisor Jing's expression became a little more serious, he sat down on the sofa, and said in an official tone: "As long as Miss Shi is willing, everything is negotiable, and we can have a meeting to discuss it."
Shi Yulu stared at him, with a smile on her lips: "If I am willing to break up the marriage, everything is negotiable. In other words, if I don't agree, Mr. Gu will tear himself apart with the Shi family?"
The consultant didn't change his expression: "I don't mean that, but if Miss Shi insists on thinking too much, I have nothing to say."
"I don't dare not think about it," Shi Yulu said, stirring the spoon, "After all, Mr. Gu suddenly repented of the marriage, so it's inevitable that he also suddenly changed his mind and wanted to form an alliance with another family."
"For example," she stared at the consultant Jing with blazing eyes, "the one with the highest degree of overlap with the Shijia market, and the biggest competitor ever, is Tianrun Group?"
"In this way, Tianrun will be able to annex the market of the Shi family. When the Shi family loses power, it will naturally lose the right to speak against the Gu family."
Advisor Jing was silent for a while, then asked in a deep voice, "How could Miss Shi have such an idea?"
He didn't admit it, but Shi Yulu already knew the answer from his attitude.So she lowered her eyebrows and said softly, "Because if it were me, I would do the same."
"I'm a villain, but I don't know if it's the belly of a gentleman."
Consultant Jing stood up: "Miss Shi was joking, there is no such thing as a villain or a gentleman in a shopping mall war."
He made a "please" gesture: "I'll send Miss Shi out."
Shi Yulu picked up her bag: "Then please trouble Mr. Gu."
After leaving the building of Gu's Group, Shi Yulu slammed on the brakes when the consultant Jing was no longer in sight.
She took out her mobile phone from her bag, and pressed a call button several times before she succeeded. When the call was connected, she called out "Dad", and Shi Yulu realized that her voice was trembling.
"Dad," she said, "something happened."
Shi Yulu was in a state of desperation, and Ruan Lutang was also upset.
On the third day after she moved out, she was discovered by the consultant Jing.
Consultant Jing made several phone calls, but seeing that Ruan Lutang didn't answer, he switched to WeChat again.
"Tangtang, where have you been?"
"What happened, why is your stuff missing from the apartment?"
"Isn't it fine before? Don't you forgive me?"
"I really wanted to introduce you to my parents that day, but I was also stunned when you did that suddenly."
"Did someone tell you something?"
"Tangtang, if you don't reply to the message, I can only go to the school to find you."
The system read the information in one breath, took a breath, and said, "Host, I also want to ask, why did you move out all of a sudden?"
Ruan Lutang concentrated on painting the last piece of nail on his left hand, spread his five fingers to appreciate it, and said, "I don't want to move out, what should I do if Wan - Consultant Jing makes a surprise attack? I can't beat him."
"He's not a robber!" The system felt bitter, "You asked him to break off the marriage with the female partner before, and I thought you were finally going to obediently attack the male lead."
"Ah? Why do you think so?" Ruan Lutang was more surprised than it was, "I thought you've been with me for so long, you should have a longer memory!"
"I remember it now!" the system said in a resentful tone, "I no longer have any illusions about the relationship line."
"Ha." Ruan Lvtang disapproved, "It's a very familiar sentence."
The system jumped: "This time it's real, really really real!"
"Alright alright."
In the time it took for them to speak a few words, Advisor Jing sent many more messages.
Ruan Lutang scrolled through the news interface for a long time but didn't finish it, so she didn't read the content at all, and replied directly: "Ask for respect..."
"Baby, you are finally willing to talk to me."
"What happened, where are you, I'll go find you now."
Ruan Lvtang: "Don't!"
Consultant Jing: "What's the matter, why did you move away, what happened?"
Ruan Lvtang: "Wen Jing, I was actually very happy when you took me to that seaside villa last time. Especially when you said that you would introduce me to everyone in a dignified manner, I was really very happy."
"However, when I stepped into the hall and saw your parents and your fiancée, Miss Shi, I flinched and lost all my courage."
"There, for the first time, I intuitively recognized the gap between us, a distance that I could never bridge in my life."
"You are the successor of a listed company, and I, I am just an ordinary student. While you are drinking 10,000+ bottles of red wine, I am still worrying about food and clothing every day."
Advisor Jing: "Tangtang, I don't care about these things."
Ruan Lvtang: "You don't have to care, but I can't. We are not from the same world, so I moved away."
"The final exam will be on Saturday. After the exam, I will leave. Don't come to me again, and don't call me again."
After finishing speaking, she simply and neatly dragged the contact information of consultant Jing into the blacklist.
The system hesitated again and again, and reminded her: "Host, this will not make the male lead give up, but will make him more eager to find you."
"Ah, is that so?" Ruan Lvtang covered her mouth pompously.
The system was silent for a moment: "...Why do I feel that you are mocking me?"
Ruan Lutang praised it with her freshly painted nail polish: "That's right, you're smarter again."
system:"……"
"Why do you put on makeup?" It changed the question.
After Ruan Lutang finished applying nail polish, she began to put on lipstick again: "Wait for Shi Yulu to take me on a date."
The system was speechless: "So you kicked the hero to seduce his fiancée conveniently?"
"Hmm..." Ruan Lutang thought for a while, "I didn't kick Consultant Jing, and it doesn't prevent me from seducing Shi Yulu."
"..."
What's with this inexplicably proud tone!The system was deeply moved by the different ways of the people, and went offline in anger.
It's just that Ruan Lutang put on her makeup and chose her clothes, but she still didn't wait for Shi Yulu.
Ruan Lutang waited for a while, and when it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon, she sent a message to Shi Yulu: "Miss Shi, are you busy today?"
The phone lights up, indicating that there is a message coming, but Shi Yulu is not in the mood to read it, she is sitting at the end of the living room, opposite Mrs. Shi Lishi and Shi Yang.
The expressions of several people were the same dignified, and the air was so sticky that it was difficult to breathe. No one spoke, as if they were waiting for others to open their mouths.
"Ding Dong" - sound, another message came.
Shi Yulu reached for the phone, but Shi Li suddenly slapped the table hard and yelled at her: "What time is it, you still have the mood to chat with people!"
Shi Yulu shook along with the cup on the table, and silently retracted her outstretched hand.
"Dad," she cleared her throat and spoke out with difficulty, "Since the Gu family wants to cooperate with Tianrun, we should find a new partner as soon as possible."
"To put it lightly, time waits for no one, we can't afford it." Shi Li was so angry that he was about to spew fire from his nostrils.
Mrs. Shi rubbed his arm comfortingly, Shi Li-shake it away, and said: "In order to negotiate this contract with the Gu family, I have spent so much thought and drank so many drinks with that old fox Gu Jianghai, but his Gu family has turned back on his promise." , This is clearly hitting me in the face!"
Shi Yulu calmly analyzed: "Even if the Gu family wants to cooperate with Tianrun, it will not be achieved overnight. As far as I know, they have just conducted the second round of negotiations. If we move faster, we may not be able to catch up before them."
"I'm afraid the Shi family will collapse before that!" Shi Li gave Shi Yulu a fierce look, "You should know the company's situation best."
Shi Yulu closed her eyes: "Instead of sitting and waiting to die, it's better to let go and fight."
"Sitting and waiting to die, it's not all because of you!" Shi Yang suddenly became excited and yelled at Shi Yulu.
Mrs. Shi frowned, and reprimanded: "Xiaoyang, why are you talking to my sister?"
Pointing at Shi Yulu, Shi Yang poked his neck in disbelief and shouted: "Did I say something wrong, Dad, tell me, isn't Shi Yulu causing the current situation!"
Shi Yulu looked at him in disbelief, and then at Shi Li: "Dad..."
Shi Li snorted coldly: "Just for a woman, a woman who hasn't graduated from college."
He raised his eyelids and looked at Shi Yulu: "Your fiancé is messing around outside, and is going to turn against the Shi family because of a woman, and you didn't realize it at all?"
"I……"
"If you hadn't kept a straight face all day long, and treated Brother Jing...so indifferent to the consultant, how could he have found another woman!" Shi Yang said angrily, "Why are you pretending to be so lofty here? The consultant went to bed and conceived another child with him, you have been married long ago, how can this happen today!"
"Shi Yang, what are you talking about!" Shi Yulu couldn't believe that Shi Yang would say that about her, as if she was not his sister, the daughter of the Shi family, but just a tool to maintain the relationship between the Shi and Gu families.
"As long as you are pregnant, no matter how many lovers Consultant Jing has outside, the Gu family will always recognize you as a daughter-in-law." Shi Yang gritted his teeth, as if it was Shi Yulu's fault that he couldn't inherit the billions of dollars, " How can it be like this now, a pheasant that pops up out of nowhere can shake your position."
"Shiyang, keep your mouth clean for me!" Shi Yulu stood up abruptly, losing her temper for the first time in her life.
The three people on the opposite side were stunned collectively, and Shi Yang also stood up abruptly: "What are you yelling at me, if you have the ability to find that mistress!"
Shi Yulu knew that Shi Yang was messed up, but he didn't expect him to be so muddled, Shi Shi was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Shi Li - pulled Shi Yang to sit down, frowned at Shi Yulu and said: "What are you losing your temper with your brother, sit down for me!"
Mrs. Shi tried to ease the atmosphere: "It's alright, it's alright, don't say a few words, look at how scared Xiao Lu is."
It's good that she didn't make a sound, but when she made a sound, Li pointed at her again: "You're not the good girl you taught, you can't even look down on your own man, what else can you do!"
"You..." Mrs. Shi felt that Shi Li's words were unpleasant, but she didn't dare to confront him, she turned her head and remained silent.
Shi Yulu stood there, listening to this conversation, her body trembled even more, and her eyes were stinging, as if tears were about to gush out from inside.
Shi Yang was yelled at by Shi Yulu—throat, holding a grudge, still staring at Shi Yulu angrily.Staring and staring, he suddenly thought of something, and said suddenly: "No, it's not too late."
Mrs. Shi turned her head to look at him, even Shi Li frowned and gave a questioning "hmm".
Shi Yang clenched his fist with his right hand and beat the palm of his left hand, and said excitedly: "Anyway, the Gu family hasn't formally proposed to divorce, let my sister get the consultant Jing drunk and abduct him to bed, take a few photos and videos as evidence, and wait for the Gu family to reveal the reason for the divorce If you want to show them the photos, saying that the consultant took advantage of the danger to molested my sister, if they insist on retiring the engagement, we will find a reporter to expose it."
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and at the end, his saliva was flying all over the place: "In this way, the Gu family will not dare to mention half a word to resign the engagement."
Unreasonable!Shi Yulu raised her head with a sneer, only to find that Shi Li and Shi Yang seemed to be seriously considering the feasibility of this matter, except Mrs. Shi who was disapproving.
"You..." Her voice was hoarse, and Shi Yulu could hardly recognize that it was her voice.
But Shi Li said: "Those who make big things don't care about small things, Xiao Lu, anyway, you are already the fiancée of Consultant Jing, so it's normal to do this kind of thing."
Shi Yulu didn't look at him and Shi Yang, but only looked at Mrs. Shi.
Mrs. Shi pulled Shi Li in embarrassment: "Is it not good to let Xiaolu do such a thing?"
Shi Li glared at her, and shouted angrily: "You are a woman, what do you know!"
Madam Shi flinched and let go, bowed her head and completely remained silent.
Looking at the three people with different faces, Shi Yulu finally slid the tears that she had held back for a long time from her eyes.It's just that her heart was unexpectedly calm, maybe not long ago, she recognized her position in her heart, but this time, she couldn't find a reason to numb herself anymore.
"I see," she said.
Shi Yang raised his eyebrows in surprise: "You agree?"
Shi Li didn't speak, but his eyes were full of curiosity.Only when Mrs. Shi didn't look at her, she buried her head even lower.
Shi Yulu didn't speak, and went upstairs to the bedroom with her mobile phone.
She locked the door and lay on the bed for a while before grabbing her phone and looking at it.
Ruan Lvtang has already sent her several messages, from asking if she is busy at the beginning to asking when she will be able to come later, interspersed with selfies of her newly-made nails, and finally with a cat expression pack end.
The cat spread its limbs, lying on its back on the floor, with four large characters above its head: so boring
Shi Yulu couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth. She turned over and lay on her side, watching the kitten for a long time, until Ruan Lutang's message came again.
"Today is over in five hours."
"Feel sorry."
Shi Yulu apologized reflexively, she paused, and edited another message to send: "Something happened just now, I didn't see your message."
"Are you still busy now, am I bothering you?"
Shi Yulu typed a few words in the dialog box: "It's okay Miss Ruan, it's over."
Just as she was about to send it out, she stopped.After thinking about it, Shi Yulu deleted the word "Miss Ruan" in the dialog box, and then clicked the send button.
She clicked on Ruan Lutang's profile picture again, found the comment column, deleted the three words "Miss Ruan" in one piece, and typed the three words "Ruan Lutang" on it.But as soon as she pressed save, she hesitated again, thought over and over again, and finally changed to two words: Tangtang.
Just after changing the remarks, Ruan Lvtang's message was sent in due course.
Tangtang: "Oh."
When Shi Yulu looked at those two words, her heart beat out of rhythm for no reason. She covered the upper left corner with her fingers to hide the nickname.
When Ruan Lutang sent the word "oh", it was as if there was no reply at all.
She held the phone and waited for a long time, but she still didn't hear from Shi Yulu.Again - look at the time, it is already 07:30 in the evening, it seems that Shi Yulu is not planning to attend the appointment.
Ruan Lutang has always been the only one who releases pigeons, and this is the first time she has been released.Ruan Lutang depressedly threw the phone aside and began to remove her makeup.
When the makeup on her face was removed and the nail polish on her right middle finger was removed, Shi Yulu suddenly sent another message: "Are you home?"
"..."
Ruan Lutang looked at the half-removed nails and became even more depressed.
"at home."
Even if Shi Yulu came to beg her now, she would never go out on a date again!Thinking this way, Ruan Lutang slowly typed in the dialog with her fingers up: "I'm not feeling well, let's forget about today"
Before he finished typing the word "le", Shi Yulu sent a message.
"Then open the door for me?"
Immediately afterwards, the iron door was slammed.
"……it is good."
Ruan Lutang opened the wooden door, and Shi Yulu stood outside, smiling at her through the hollow iron door: "Hi, do you still need a roommate?"
Under the dim light of the voice-activated lights in the corridor, Shi Yulu stood there, her face was cut into two areas with different light and shade, she was smiling, but her expression was a little sad.She didn't have any makeup this time, her plain face looked a bit weak, and those charming fox eyes looked pitiful.
Ruan Lutang was stunned, and quickly opened the iron door from the inside.
When Shi Yulu walked in, Ruan Lutang realized that she had only brought a small suitcase, and she didn't seem to be moving, but rather ran away from home.
Ruan Lutang reached out to pick up the box, and when he touched Shi Yulu's hand, he was taken aback.
"Why is it so cold?" She let go of the box, grabbed Shi Yulu's hands and rubbed them together, "It's windy, you've been blowing a cool breeze outside for a long time?"
"No." Shi Yulu broke free from her hand, and quickly walked into the house with the box.
"You said you were busy with something, so you were busy with this?"
Ruan Lutang nestled on the sofa and raised her chin towards the suitcase.
A little downcast flashed across Shi Yulu's face, but she quickly covered it up and nodded, "Yes."
Ruan Lutang looked at her expression and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to move in? When you came last time, you had no intention of moving in at all."
"Because..." Shi Yulu bit her lip, not wanting to reveal the real reason, but she couldn't find an excuse to prevaricate.
Ruan Lutang immediately gave her a step down: "Is it because I said I was too poor, so you came to help the poor?"
Shi Yulu smiled awkwardly, noncommittal.
Ruan Lutang pretended to be distressed and sighed: "Miss Shi is really a good person, but it's a pity..."
Shi Yulu was a little nervous: "What?"
Ruan Lvtang said: "Actually, several people have called me to rent a house in the past few days."
The system retorted weakly: "You lied..."
Shi Yulu was a little disappointed, but she quickly adjusted her emotions, stood up with shame on her face and said, "Since it's already rented out, I'll find another house."
"But—" Ruan Lutang hurriedly changed the subject, "No one paid a deposit, so the room is still empty."
Shi Yulu glanced at the closed door twice, and said hesitantly, "So, can I stay here?"
"Well," Ruan Lvtang nodded, and said angrily, "If this kind of thing happens again, you have to tell me in advance."
Shi Yulu's complexion darkened: "Sorry..."
Ruan Lvtang disliked hearing her apologize the most.Obviously Shi Yulu did nothing wrong, but she always bowed her head and admitted her mistakes for those unwarranted names.
She rolled her eyes and said suddenly: "Ah, I forgot to tell you that if you want to live in, you must abide by the tenant rules."
Shi Yulu was a little confused: "Residence rules?"
"Well, tenant rules," Ruan Lvtang nodded, and stretched out a finger: "Tenant rules—: Do not apologize blindly if you have nothing to do."
When Shi Yulu heard this kind of request for the first time, she couldn't help laughing: "Ruan...Miss Ruan──"
"Tenant Rules Two," Ruan Lutang added another finger, "Don't call me Miss Ruan."
