In the days leading up to returning home. Chen Ruo Yu was always at Meng Gu's house. She finally understood what Meng Gu meant by telling her that he doesn't do one-night stands, this guy wants an every night situation.
He gave the key to her again, but she took a deep breath and didn't take it.
If he has the face to take it back, he shouldn't give it back to her. How could he tease her like that? She asked him to apologize, reflect on himself and repent, but he did not, he refused to admit his mistakes and refused to reflect and showed no repentance.
He won't, she also won't. In any case, if he doesn't apologize, then she doesn't want his house key.
"Are you done with work? Don't take the bus, I will pick you up on the way."
"My stomach hurts, I didn't have time to eat dinner. The lunch box I got from the hospital canteen has already gone cold, and I don't want to eat it. You've already eaten your fill and are watching TV at home? Then what do I do? I don't want to go out to a restaurant to eat. Would you like to help me make a bowl of noodles? What? I don't want to go to your house to eat it, the noodles at my house are more appetizing. In any case, if no one cooks it, then it seems that I can only starve to death."
"Watching TV by yourself is lonely, come to my house, my TV is big, there is also a home theatre system, my bed is also better for a good night. The point is, I am downstairs at your apartment, if you don't come down, I won't leave."
Chen Ruo Yu was troubled by this man's skills for several days. In the beginning, How did she feel that this Mr. Tyrannosaurus was cool and handsome with his fierce dreadful tongue? He was obviously a nagging troublemaker!
A man's IQ is really too unreliable.
Chen Ruo Yu despised him for using tricks and walked into the trap, she knew that he was deliberately pretending and still accommodated him.
So she was cooking and he was beside her making trouble. She was washing dishes and he was on the side giving directions. She was doing laundry and he took off his clothes and threw them haphazardly. She was tidying up the house and he was hanging around her, repeating that she should take him home for the Spring festival.
Of course, she did not agree, so he accelerated and quickly put into practice what he has been preaching, and let her experience the life of a married couple for herself.
Chen Ruo Yu couldn't help but acknowledge that these past few days they have been going out together, eating together, sleeping together, they really seemed like a married couple. They adjusted the details and habits of their lives, to accommodate each other's preferences and requests.
Okay, she felt that it was actually pretty good in bed. Well, she doesn't have the experience to compare with, but it should be pretty good.
Except for the first time, where she felt pain, there hasn't been any pain since, there's also the fact that that time his nagging ruined the atmosphere, but the feelings the several times after that can be rated as perfect.
The second time they were intimate, she experienced the pinnacle of feelings. In his arms, tightened and released, was out of control and shouted. He was smug and continued strongly, bravely forcing her to the second peak. Chen Ruo Yu was sweating all over, with tears running down her face, gasping for breath and trembling with the lingering aftertaste, and her face was flushed because of her bashfulness.
This shameless man panted and announced that this was his true strength, the first time does not count. After saying that, he thought about it and added, the first time should also be considered to be good, he did not make it too painful for her, and so should also be given a superior rating. Then he thought about it again and added, every time there is the main goal, and each time it's accomplished should be added to the evaluation, making it excellent.
This was really talking nonsense, Chen Ruo Yu closed her eyes and pretended to have fallen asleep. If she talks to him at this time, his tail will definitely lift up to the sky again. However, she really fell asleep later, before she fell asleep, she suddenly thought that the first time, he must have also been nervous.
The morning after that, she was woken up by Meng Gu, who was shouting as he was patting her that he had overslept and was running short of time and was going to be late. Sure enough, they are walking this dead romance route till the end, right? His arriving late has nothing to do with her. Her working hours are not so early, but he insisted saying something about 'the man sings and the woman follows'. In short, he must take her with him when he is leaving and drop her off.
**(It's an old idiom about marriage, basically means a couple moves as one...he is taking it way too literally though LOL)**
Chen Ruo Yu's face went dark and she clenched her teeth in anger, the world's most inconsiderate and romantic man should be him, right?
There was no gentle good morning kiss, no thoughtful soft whisper that you should sleep well while I'm gone. How exactly did this theory of this early in the morning when I'm running late, you must accompany me to rush out together come about?
In short, the few days of simulating life as husband and wife, had both good times and hardships, sweet and sour, hot, it had every taste. Chen Ruo Yu did not know whether her family's Tyrannosaurus was too full of confidence and felt beyond reproach, in any case, he did not bother to cover up his stinky shortcomings, and did not pretend to be even a little bit better, instead he really used his true colors to face her.
Old husband, old wife, this was how it is, right?
But she didn't take him home for the Spring festival, because the day before she went back, her mother called her and scolded her. The reason was that Zhou Zhe returned with Lu Bao Ni. Chen mother called her after discovering that it was originally her family who interfered with Zhou family's marriage matter. After investigating, she found out that her daughter was actually the initiator in this matter, she instigated another girl into pursuing and winning over Zhou Zhe. This made Chen mother so angry with no place to vent, she felt that her daughter deliberately did this to oppose her.
The call was quite unpleasant. When her mother started to accuse her, Chen Ruo Yu told her that she has a boyfriend in this city and he was a doctor. But Chen mother didn't listen to her. The lies her daughter told before, she clearly remembered, and so did not believe it. She simply refused to listen and straight away hung up the phone.
Chen Ruo Yu sighed and felt wronged. She was worried that the result of her bringing Meng Gu home now would be for Meng Gu to go back and directly see the bad side of her family. She thought about it and decided that it would be better for her to go alone this holiday and talk to her parents. Get her parents'approval, and after everyone has reached a consensus, and has psychologically prepared then she'll take Meng Gu home.
So under the Meng Gu's aggrieved and contemptuous gaze, Chen Ruo Yu took her luggage and went home for the New year.
Sitting on the bus, she talked to Meng Gu until her phone's battery almost died. This guy would call one moment, and call again the next moment, making Chen Ruo Yu start to miss him before she even reached C city.
The closer she got to home, the heavier her heart felt. When did going home change from something to look forward to, to pressure and something she wanted to maintain a distance from? As she stood at the door, Chen Ruo Yu took a deep breath and encouraged herself. She is already different, this New year, she can definitely be able to have harmonious relations at home. Her mother and father will understand her.
Just as she raised her hand to knock on the door, the door suddenly opened, and a few familiar faces appeared behind the door, apparently, they were preparing to go out and seeing Chen Ruo Yu shouted, "Xiao Yu is back."
Oh my God, a house full of people. Chen Ruo Yu's head felt numb.
Her aunt from another city, 2nd maternal uncle, her father's younger cousin or something, and several other extended family members were here. Chen Ruo Yu felt a little breathless. How did this year's Spring festival become a gathering of her family members? Then how can she talk to her parents?
Chen Ruo Yu's luck was not very good. In the past few years, the family members had spent the New year in their respective homes, but this year they had all decided to come to C city for the Spring festival. 2nd maternal uncle's family also brought her old grandmother to Chen Ruo Yu's home. Everyone was full of joy to celebrate the New year. Seeing her old grandmother who she has not seen for a long time also made Chen Ruo Yu very happy, however, this situation of being trapped in a pile of elders made her want to shed tears silently.
"Xiao Yu, your mother said that don't have a partner yet. What's the matter? Look, my family's Lei Lei will be getting married soon."
This was her father's younger cousin's great voice. His daughter, Lei Lei is almost thirty, for her to be getting is very normal. Chen Ruo Yu was unable to say those words, but she just quietly said, "I have a boyfriend."
But this sentence seemed to be too quiet, as everyone magically did not hear it. Chen mother also cast her a fierce glance.
Chen Ruo Yu sighed, what did she do? She really has a boyfriend.
"Xiao Yu, what kind of work do you do now? How much do you earn in a month? Your older cousin is doing well ah, he has become a manager of a wine bar in L city, he has a house and a car. What are you planning to do?"
This time before Chen Ruo Yu could open her mouth, Chen mother glared at her and stuffed an orange in her hand, which meant that she should shut up. Chen Ruo Yu put an orange slice in her mouth and complied with her wishes.
"Xiao Yu, work and so on don't matter, boyfriend, this thing has to be planned early, if work is not good, it's better to marry well, how about auntie introduce a few people for you to look at?"
Chen Ruo Yu swallowed the orange slice and hurriedly waved, "No need, no need, thank you, auntie, I really have a boyfriend."
This sentence was once again magically ignored by everyone. Her aunt's attention was called over by Chen mother. Chen mother said that she originally had a very good partner, but Chen Ruo Yu was too busy with work and failed to get along with the party properly. As a result, she was so unlucky that another girl got ahead and plucked by him first. If her aunt has good partners in mind that is also good, what are their conditions, and let the elders first help her examine it.
So her aunt put out the list of unmarried men she has out, and the elders in the house began to discuss it. Chen mother was thinking this and that is not good. 2nd uncle said that the conditions of your family's Chen Ruo Yu are so so, don't be too picky. Chen mother was unconvinced and argued.
The house was so noisy, but no one asked Chen Ruo Yu's opinion, she silently stuffed orange slices in her mouth, she felt so suffocated, she couldn't help sighing.
Her old grandmother next to her reached out and touched Chen Ruo Yu's hand. Chen Ruo Yu turned her head and saw it and quickly held it. Her old grandmother's ears were not very good, so she didn't really catch everyone's words, she asked her, "They want to introduce a partner to you?"
"I have a boyfriend, grandmother."
"You have a boyfriend?" Grandmother smiled at her, "That's good, what does he do?"
"He's a doctor, grandmother."
"Doctor is good, does he look good?"
"Very good, grandmother."
"What is his name?"
"His name is Meng Gu, grandmother."
So while her mother and the others were discussing Chen Ruo Yu's blind date, Chen Ruo Yu was introducing Meng Gu to her grandmother.
But her grandmother knowing it is not enough. Her grandmother is old and often confused. She listened about Meng Gu and then asked her again the next day, "Xiao Yu, do you have a boyfriend?"
"I have a boyfriend, grandmother." Chen Ruo Yu said very patiently. The elders next to her this time also helped and added, "Mom, you elders can rest easy, Xiao Yu has a boyfriend, her work is also good, everyone is doing very well."
"Oh, oh." The old woman held her walking stick and nodded, "Right, Xiao Yu's boyfriend is a doctor, I remember."
"Yes, he is a doctor." Chen Ruo Yu touched her grandmother's aged hand and smiled at her.
The elder next to her also agreed, "Yes, yes, a doctor." But then turned and whispered, "Mom is getting more and more confused and even thought to help Xiao Yu pair up with a doctor. Before I told her that you all came back for the New year, but she has been asking whether you all have gone back. Getting old is truly not good."
Chen Ruo Yu stroked her grandmother's hand and sighed.
Because of the arrival of her relatives, Chen Ruo Yu's house was in a mess. She was squeezed in a room with her grandmother and aunt. The two elders slept on the bed and she slept on the floor. 2nd uncle's whole family slept in her brother's room, and Chen Ruo Yu's brother was hurried into the living room to sleep on the sofa.
Her grandmother and aunt were snoring, one high and one low all night, Chen Ruo Yu was not able to feel warm on the floor, plus was bothered by the snoring and so was unable to sleep properly for a few days. Her brother who had been sleeping on the living room sofa caught a cold on the third day. The two of them went to complain to Chen father, Chen father told them to endure it, saying that everyone is feeling crowded and it would not look good for them to go out to stay at a hotel or ask the guests to go out, how would others see their family, you have to be hospitable till the end, alright?
Chen Ruo Yu said that she is paying the money and not asking the other to, why is this no good? As a result, Chen father admonished her asking where did the money come from. With so many people now, your mother has not had the free time to properly talk to you. When the relatives leave, mom and dad have to discuss with you about your affairs. Receiving the relatives was not simply about saving money. Who doesn't have the money to stay in a hotel, it is not convenient for everyone to live together in one place, so what you want is for people to go out to stay?
Chen father did not give Chen Ruo Yu the opportunity to give a rebuttal and was called away by Chen mother.
Chen brother showed a pitiful expression, and was angry and grudgingly said, "What? Who doesn't have money to stay in a hotel, that's just being stingy. Everyone is stingy."
"Your sister will help you pay the bill, you go out to stay in a hotel." Chen Ruo Yu herself couldn't go but she felt distressed for her brother.
Chen brother looked happy, and then dejected, his parents did not agree, he dare not take the money and go out to stay.
"Ahh." Chen Ruo Yu expressed her disdain for him.
"You're also terrified." Chen brother also expressed contempt for her, "You dare not but you want me to resist and fight, and want me to go on my own so that I can become cannon fodder to be scolded to death by mom."
Chen Ruo Yu lowered her eyebrows, she really did not dare. Chen brother added, "We need not feel inferior, just look at dad, isn't he also terrified? We both inherited it and cannot be blamed."
Late that day, Chen Ruo Yu stealthily called Meng Gu and told him about this matter, Meng Gu sighed, "Your home is indeed a terrifying nest, too useless."
Chen Ruo Yu was not convinced and thought in her mind, if you think you have the ability then come ah, when you see it, you will know.
But she did not expect Meng Gu to really turn up invited.
The day after was the class reunion. Chen Ruo Yu went to the gathering with Gao Yu Lan and Yin Ze. The highlight of this class reunion was "Qi Na's bullying and Gao Yu Lan's opposition." Chen Ruo Yu had no pressure in her supporting role. She was also not worried about Gao Yu Lan. There was her family's boss guarding the flower, watching beside her, they don't need the supporting role to act at all.
So the supporting role safely ate and watched the excitement. The class reunion was halfway through when the unexpected happened.
Standing at the doorway of the private venue was a very familiar man.
Chen Ruo Yu was started and dumbstruck. How could her family's Tyrannosaurus be here?
"Whose partner is this?" Since he was not a former classmate, then he should be a partner, and if no one claims him then he will be kicked out.
Meng Gu stared fixedly at Chen Ruo Yu, it was fully written on his face that if she did not acknowledge him, he would kill her. Chen Ruo Yu weakly raised her hand, "It's mine, it's my partner."
