C42 (1/2)
Could this be written by Xue Tianning? She wouldn't believe it!
Even if someone with Xue Tianning's character really wanted him to write any romantic words, it wouldn't be in this style.
Furthermore, what did he mean by 'everything from last night is unforgettable'? They had been talking about their work that night. What was there to remember?
”This wasn't a gift from Xue Tianning.” Xu Chencan shook his head in confusion. ”Who would be so bored as to impersonate Xue Tianning and send me flowers?”
Hearing her words, the corners of Wang Lingyu's lips curled up in a mocking smile.
He already knew, he thought, who would do such a vile and senseless thing.
He took the flower from Xu Chencan and walked through the door under her astonished gaze. He gave it to Aunt Ling, who was walking toward them, and said, ”Aunt Ling, Chencan bought these for you.”
Aunt Ling was both surprised and happy as she received it. She quickly walked in front of Xu Chencan and gave her a warm hug. ”Oh Chencan, thank you. I haven't received a rose in years.”
Although Xu Chencan felt helpless about Wang Lingyu's actions, she was still very happy to see her aunt Ling act like this. ”Auntie Ling, you are worthy of being the most beautiful flower.”
After dinner, as usual, Xu Chencan wanted to watch TV in the living room before going back upstairs to sleep.
Unexpectedly, Wang Lingyu pulled her into the cloakroom without saying a word.
”What?” Xu Chencan shook off his hand and glared at him with a frown.
”Put this on.” Wang Lingyu pulled out a set of sports shoes from her closet and placed them in front of her.
”Why?” Xu Chencan was unwilling
”Because you're going for a walk with me.”
”But I don't want to walk.” Xu Chencan rejected this idea. She had been tired out from staying in the hospital all day, and now she didn't want to go anywhere.
”No, then we don't need to see Chen Jingyuan.” Wang Lingyu was in no hurry.
”You!” Xu Chencan was so angry that he almost died. Where did he get so many methods to coerce her!
”Alright, I'll trade!” Get out! ” Annoyed, she pushed him out the door.
With a smile on his face, Wang Lingyu returned to her cloakroom to change.
By the time Xu Chencan had finished changing his clothes, Wang Lingyu was already waiting for him outside the door.
”That's right.” He looked her up and down and nodded.
This loathsome fellow, she was about to die of exhaustion, why did he force her to go out and take a walk?!
Xu Chencan glared at him in annoyance before walking out by himself.
Wang Lingyu smiled as she followed him.
By the time they reached the street, the lights were already on.
”Where to?” Xu Chencan stood at his original position, not knowing where to go.
In fact, although she had been living in the Wang family for a while, she still wasn't familiar with the environment.
She was so busy that all her energy was focused on her work and she had no other thoughts.
”Follow me.” Wang Lingyu held her hand and walked away.
The moment he grabbed her hand, Xu Chencan felt a sudden sensation of being scalded. She instinctively struggled, but his grip was firm.
After trying a few times, but to no avail, she gave up on struggling and obediently followed him.
A few minutes later they were on a tree-lined path.
On the roadside, there were old street lamps that looked as if they were from the past. The orange light they emitted gave off a vague feeling.
