Fortunately

Chapter 55
When Yan Youwei saw Xia Xiaoqiao, his head grew dizzy.

It turned out that the two had a little friendship, but after that incident, they almost became enemies.Although Xia Xiaoqiao took the initiative to contact her and apologized last time, Yan Youwei also said that he would not pursue it anymore.But this does not mean that they can return to the state of "loving each other" ten years ago.

She appeared on the boat now, and the only explanation was Zeng Zimu.And she came to find her for only one purpose, and that was Zeng Zimu.

Zeng Zimu Zeng Zimu, Yan Youwei thought to himself that I still can't handle this man myself, how can I handle him for you.

But Xia Xiaoqiao stood there with a smile all over her face, and insisted on pulling her to sit beside her. She also said that she would invite her and Yang Yang to dinner, and that she would introduce her husband to her.Yan Youwei looked at the restaurant full of people and was too embarrassed to refuse, so she could only reluctantly agree and took Yang Yang to go there.

Xia Xiaoqiao's husband had already stood up to greet her.Yan Youwei took the opportunity to look at the man.Familiar, do not know, probably not from their previous school.The man looked fair and clean, but he looked very refined, which fit Yan Youwei's impression of what a cultured person should look like.And he doesn't look very old, about 30 years old.

After being seated, Xia Xiaoqiao introduced to Yan Youwei: "This is my husband, his surname is Nie, and his name is Nie Kun."

Yan Youwei reached out and shook his hand.This Nie Kun probably holds a pen all the year round, and his fingertips are densely packed with calluses, which for no reason adds a bit of scholarly flavor to him.Yan Youwei had a good impression of him.

Xia Xiaoqiao and the others had already ordered, and now that there were two more people, she handed the menu to Yan Youwei and asked her to order casually.Yan Youwei took the menu and felt that it was heavy in his hands, and he really didn't want to eat this meal.Because she eats a mouthful of food, and she has to do things for him later.

If it's an ordinary matter, she will help, but she is not willing to help if she is asked to ask Zeng Zimu.So during the meal, Yan Youwei made up his mind to pay her the bill later.Anyway, Zeng Zimu said that her face is the passport, she only needs to scan her face, and no one will ask her to collect money.

Xia Xiaoqiao and his wife are soft-spoken, so they should understand what she means, so they won't pester her anymore.

So when she was eating, she was not too cautious, she ordered whatever she wanted, and chatted with Xia Xiaoqiao and his wife while feeding Yang Yang.These two seem to know each other quite well, and they didn't chatter about their plans and ideals as soon as they came up, and they only talked about small irrelevant things.

For example, Nie Kun saw that Yang Yang was having fun eating, so he smiled at Yan You and said, "Looking at how cute your son is, I really think that Xiao Qiao and I have to have a baby quickly. It's all her fault. She is young and loves beauty, and she is afraid of having a baby figure." Out of shape, has been procrastinating and refusing to give birth."

Xia Xiaoqiao smiled awkwardly: "It's very troublesome to have a baby. You see, Youwei can't even eat well. We have to discuss it from time to time."

"What are you afraid of? When you give birth, I will hire a nanny for you, and I will guarantee that you don't have to move a finger. What are you worried about?" Nie Kun said and put his arms around his wife's shoulders, and Xia Xiaoqiao gently pushed him With one hand, he said "hate".

Yan Youwei felt that he was like a big three-kilowatt light bulb, which could illuminate the entire restaurant.If the woman on the opposite side was not Xia Xiaoqiao but Ren Tingting, she would definitely have opened her eyes and turned her mouth, pretending to be displeased and asking: "What is this for, showing affection in front of the widow?"

But at this moment, she just smiled and tried to persuade Xia Xiaoqiao: "You should give birth to one as soon as possible. It's very fun. It's not only troublesome, but also a lot of fun."

Nie Kun childishly stretched out two fingers and made a "Yeah" gesture, and said happily to his wife: "Look, even your best friend said that, so you should hurry up and agree."

Well, one sentence put Yan Youwei into the category of girlfriends.She thought that your little Qiao and I robbed a man in the past, and that was my man, but I didn't sleep for a day until he died, but your little Qiao went to bed early to be honest.Is there such a girlfriend in this world?
As a result, the meal was a bit satisfying.When it was time to check out, Yan Youwei had already made up his mind to show his "face" to the waiter.The other party recognized her after a few glances, nodded understandingly, turned around and took the bill away.

Yan Youwei smiled at Xia Xiaoqiao: "This is mine alone, please."

Xia Xiaoqiao's face immediately changed: "Youwei, what are you doing, are you being so polite to me?"

"I rushed to pay the bill just because I was rude to you. If I didn't know you well, I wouldn't invite you to dinner."

Yan Youwei looked at Yang Yang's listless look again, knowing that he was going to take a nap, so he got up and said goodbye: "You take your time, I'll take the kids back first."

"Hey Youwei, don't go, I still have something to tell you." Xia Xiaoqiao jumped up and grabbed Yan Youwei's wrist.In desperation, she squeezed quite hard, causing Yan You to gasp slightly, and her face collapsed.

Xia Xiaoqiao hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry, I didn't mean it. Youwei, you can help me with the thing I told you last time. I know Zeng Zimu is on the boat, so you can introduce him to us. Just a moment. We just want to see him, and we won't waste his time. Half an hour oh no, 15 minutes is enough. Please."

"I'm sorry Xiao Qiao, I can't help you with this matter. And Zeng Zimu is not on board at all."

"You lied, why is he not here? We obviously asked about it."

Seeing that his wife was agitated, Nie Kun quickly stepped forward to coax her: "Okay, Xiao Qiao, don't be like this, just talk if you have something to say."

Yan Youwei also looked apologetic: "He was indeed on the boat, but he flew back to City S this morning and said he had something to do."

"I don't believe it!" Xia Xiaoqiao yelled, suddenly losing control of her emotions.She tightly grabbed Yan Youwei's wrist, almost pulling her whole body in front of her, "Yan Youwei, I know what you think in your heart. You just don't want to help me, right. I know you have hated me all these years. I hate that I slept with your husband back then. That’s right, we got married. He put a big green hat on you, so you have always held a grudge. You want to kill me, don’t you? Okay, you want to take revenge on me I will give you a chance today, you kill, you kill."

The situation took a turn for the worse, and the restaurant, which had been calm and peaceful, broke out suddenly.Xia Xiaoqiao acted like crazy, holding on to Yan Youwei with one hand, while grabbing the knife on the dinner plate with the other.She stuffed the knife into Yan Youwei's hand and forcibly cut her own neck.Although the table knife was not sharp, it was metal after all. After rubbing it back and forth a few times, several red marks appeared on Xia Xiaoqiao's neck.

Yan Youwei became anxious, and roared angrily: "Xia Xiaoqiao, what are you doing, are you crazy, let go!"

"I won't let you go. I know you want to kill me. Okay, I'll give you this chance. Back then, I was sorry for you, the man who slept with you. Now I'll pay your head office for my life."

She spoke in a very loud voice, and everyone in the restaurant could clearly hear every word she said from the outburst of anger just now.Yan Youwei was so speechless that she cursed Xia Xiaoqiao as an idiot in her heart.Even if she is shameless, Yan Youwei still has shame.Why did she throw out her scandal in public, making her the laughing stock of the whole restaurant.

This is how people are these days. When they hear someone else being a mistress, they don't smile lightly, but when they hear that someone else's husband has been robbed, they immediately laugh very happily.It seems that if one's own life is unsatisfactory, others are not allowed to live well, wishing that people all over the world will be unlucky.

She really regretted entering this restaurant, and even more regretted having this meal with Xia Xiaoqiao.Seeing that she was getting more and more crazy, and her voice was getting louder and louder, Yan Youwei's face was flushed, and he pinched the back of the opponent's hand desperately, trying to pull her hand off his body.But Xia Xiaoqiao was like an octopus, she couldn't get it off after "sucking" it on her body.

Nie Kun next to him was also a little anxious, trying his best to coax his wife with good words: "Little Qiao, let go, let go quickly, what are you doing. If you have something to say, there is no righteousness in business, don't scare the child."

As soon as he said this, Yan Youwei went to see Yangyang, and sure enough, seeing the child's face turned pale, he cried "wow" after holding it for a while.Seeing the child crying, Yan Youwei became angry, pushed Xia Xiaoqiao away and said angrily, "What on earth do you want to do? I told you I can't help you. If you want to see him, go find him on the boat."

When she said this, taking advantage of Xia Xiaoqiao being caught by Nie Kun, she put Yang Yang into the stroller without even bothering to fasten the safety buckle, and left in a hurry.As a result, she left the bag in a hurry and wanted to go back to get it, but she was afraid of being pestered by Xia Xiaoqiao. When she was in a dilemma, she saw her dark red bag dangling in front of her eyes, and then she saw a face smiling from behind the bag. out.

If Xia Xiaoqiao hadn't been so angry just now, Yan Youwei would definitely jump up right now.Could it be that the Hera is a ghost ship, why are all the messy people on it.First it was Xia Xiaoqiao, and now Wu Chu suddenly appeared again, holding her bag in his hand, smiling unbelievably happily.

Yan Youwei just wanted to ask him why he was here, but Wu Chu just pushed Yangyang's baby carriage and left, and greeted her: "Leave here first, then talk about it later, that lunatic will come to you later, you are really in trouble."

Yan Youwei felt that what he said made sense, so she hurriedly followed.The two walked out for more than 200 meters before stopping.Yan Youwei fastened Yang Yang's seat belt first, then wiped his face clean, comforted him a few times in a low voice, and seeing that the child had calmed down, he pushed the cart back to his room.

Wu Chu just followed beside her without saying a word, with a smile on his face all the time.Yan Youwei asked him, "Why are you here?"

"Business. Accompany the boss to do errands. This can be regarded as 'public funds' travel."

After he finished speaking, he paused, then turned his head and smiled at Yan You again: "Why, you don't think I came on board with you on purpose, do you?"

Yan Youwei showed a troubled expression, and Wu Chu immediately added: "Don't worry, I'm not a pervert, and I don't have the habit of following women."

Yan Youwei was completely speechless.Fortunately, Wu Chu didn't intend to continue this topic, he was more concerned about the situation just now: "That woman looked familiar just now, did she belong to your class before?"

"Well, she's in the same dormitory as me. Her surname is Xia."

"Isn't it called Xia Xiaoqiao? I remembered that we had a buddy who liked her very much when we played together in the past, and we even helped to make plans to pursue her. It's a pity that this girl is a bit cold, and my buddy has been chasing her for more than a month. , she didn't respond at all. I didn't expect it to be like this now."

"What is this like?"

"Crazy woman. She was so scary just now. Is the one next to her husband?"

Yan Youwei glared at him: "You have seen it and you still don't come to save me?"

"I came late, and you had already pushed her away. You pushed her hard, so you must have lost your temper."

Yan Youwei wasn't too angry if he was angry, but he felt that it was too embarrassing for the public to look like that.And because Yan Youwei's heart was hurt by Yang Yang's crying, he hit harder.But she was sure that Xia Xiaoqiao would not be injured, not to mention Nie Kun was still guarding her.

So she twitched the corners of her mouth, forced a smile and said, "It shouldn't matter, her husband is here too. If I hadn't pushed her away just now, I wouldn't be able to leave today. She's not tall, but she's really strong, and I'm not even her match."

"It doesn't matter, if you don't push her away, I will be a hero and save the beauty."

"That's really embarrassing, I took your chance to perform."

"It doesn't matter, everything is fine, as long as you are fine."

This was too ambiguous, Yan Youwei was a little embarrassed to hear it.Coincidentally, she also reached the door of the room at this time, so she followed suit and started to "drive people away": "Okay, I'm here, you can go back, thank you today."

"Why, don't you invite me in to sit down?"

Yan Youwei was at a loss for words, looked down and found that Yang Yang had fallen asleep in the car, so she immediately had an excuse: "The child is asleep, I have to sleep with him for a while, otherwise he won't have the energy to eat at night."

Wu Chu smiled helplessly: "Oh, I don't want to talk to you for a few more words. Junior girl, even if you have Zeng Zimu, you can be more enthusiastic about the senior. How about this, you sleep with the child first, and I will invite you to sleep at night. How are you eating?"

Seeing that Yan Youwei was looking for an excuse to reject him again, Wu Chu immediately pretended to be pitiful: "Even if the blind date doesn't work out, it's okay to be friends. Last time you let me go like this and made me eat food for two in the restaurant alone. It made the waiters laugh at me. I finally met you on the boat today, so it's fate, so why don't you give me some face?"

Having said all this, Yan Youwei really had no way to refuse, thinking that Zeng Zimu was not there, and it would be boring to take the children to eat by himself, so he agreed to Wu Chu's invitation.

Wu Chu was in a good mood immediately, and waved goodbye to her, with a smile on his face when he left.He walked a few steps and turned back to look at her: "I'll pick you up at six o'clock in the evening."

Yan Youwei nodded in agreement, pushed the door open and entered the room.As soon as she entered the room, she carried Yang Yang to the bed, took off his shoes and coat, and then sat down to take a breath.

As a result, the pain in the hand became more intense as soon as I relaxed.She opened the sleeves and saw that her wrists were obviously red and swollen, with pinch marks on them, and the skin was torn in some places.She went into the bathroom and flushed for a while, and found that the tingling was getting stronger and stronger, so she could only come out and find a tube of ointment to apply a little.

After applying the medicine, she dozed off next to Yangyang, and she overslept this time.When I woke up and looked at the clock, it was already five forty.Yan Youwei hurriedly jumped out of bed, brushed her teeth and washed her face, changed her clothes first, and then called Yang Yang up.

Yang Yang's mouth was still drooling, and he was reeling from sleepiness.Yan Youwei took off his pajamas and put on his trousers first, and just put on a shoe for him when he heard a knock on the door.

So she stuffed the other shoe into Yang Yang's hand and told him to put it on by himself, while she went to open the door.Wu Chu came very punctually, and stood at the door of the room in a suit just after six o'clock.Yan Youwei asked him to come in and sit for a while, then went back to the room to brush Yang Yang's teeth and wash his face.

After everything was settled, the two went out with their children.Wu Chu smiled as he walked, "Zeng Zimu won't hit me if he sees it, will he?"

"No, he's not here today, go back and do something."

"Oh." Wu Chu stopped in his tracks, smiling contemptuously, "You really are together."

Yan Youwei was taken aback, and quickly explained: "No, they are just friends."

Wu Chu didn't ask any further questions. The two of them walked all the way to the restaurant and sat down. Wu Chu picked up the topic just now: "Actually, whether you have reunited with Zeng Zimu or not, you don't have to be nervous about me. Since we two can't be a couple , I think it’s better to be friends.”

Yan Youwei was looking at the layout of the restaurant, and couldn't digest his words for a while.This restaurant is completely different from the one Zeng Zimu took her to yesterday.The location is remote and quiet, and the layout is very elegant.But it may be because the location is not so good, there are not many guests who come to eat at meal time.

After looking at the overall environment of the restaurant, she remembered to answer what Wu Chu said just now: "Thank you for understanding me."

"Honestly speaking, I'm really reluctant to give up on you. But forget it, since the competitor is Zeng Zimu, I won't get involved. It won't end well if you rob him of a woman."

Yan Youwei knew that he didn't believe that the two of them didn't get along well, but she didn't intend to explain any more.Anyway, she doesn't have a deep friendship with Wu Chu, and she probably won't see each other often in the future, so she doesn't need to tell him too much about such private matters.It is impossible for even Ren Tingting to know all her secrets, let alone Wu Chu.

But after a meal, Yan Youwei felt that Wu Chu was not bad as an ordinary friend.Especially the kind of friends who occasionally eat together with a group of people.Because he is very good at chatting, and is very good at finding topics, and knows what ordinary women like to hear.He even got on really well with Yang Yang.

Yan Youwei still remembered that he asked Yang Yang such a question after he got acquainted with Yang Yang: "Does Yang Yang like Uncle Zeng Zimu?"

"like."

"Then do you want him to be your father?"

"Think." Yang Yang's voice dropped significantly, "But I already have a father."

"It's okay, if you like Uncle Zeng, you can also let him be your father."

"really?"

"of course it's true."

If it wasn't for Yan Youwei who couldn't listen anymore and interrupted their conversation, I don't know how long this kind of unnutritious topic will only make people dizzy.

However, Yang Yang liked Wu Chu's tricks very much. After chatting with him about the topic of "Dad", it was obvious that he became much closer to him.

After eating, Wu Chu suggested to go for a walk on the side of the nearby boat, and both adults and children digested their food.Yan Youwei ate too much, so he didn't refuse, and went out with him to enjoy the sea breeze.

This is the place near the stern, and there are fewer facilities than the bow, so there are very few people at night.They hardly met anyone all the way out, but they could talk and laugh without any scruples.

Wu Chu seemed to be in a particularly high mood today, talking about various topics along the way.From all kinds of interesting things that happened in school when they were students, to all kinds of best things they encountered after leaving school.Some things are really funny, Yan Youwei covered his mouth and laughed while listening to him, almost had the urge to laugh.

This Wu Chu is really suitable to be a husband. If such a person truly loves each other, it must be very interesting to marry him.He had a natural knack for making people laugh.Even though Yan Youwei doesn't like him, she still likes to listen to him.

Compared with him, Zeng Zimu is simply boring and uninteresting. He occasionally said a few cold jokes or hid the words, and satirized her all the time.Keren is such a strange animal, sometimes she even feels that she has masochistic tendencies.Don't want such a good economical man as Wu Chu, but just like Zeng Zimu's piece of wood.It was almost like a doomed doom.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Wu Chu, who happened to turn her head to look at him too.The pale light on the bow of the ship shone on the faces of the two of them, and each of them was taken aback by the other.There's really no sense of beauty in this pairing.

Wu Chu immediately laughed and said, "Looking at people's faces at night is scary at first glance. It reminds me of the ghost stories in the old laboratory building of our school." So he immediately changed the subject, stopped talking about those funny things, and instead Talk about all the ghost stories you heard.

Yan Youwei is timid, and in this dark and boundless sea, she has heard many of those stories before, but now she feels even more panicked when she hears them again, a gust of sea breeze blows her and makes her shiver.

She said to Wu Chu: "Stop talking, talk about something else, it's scary to death."

Wu Chu laughed loudly: "Why are you women like this? When you hear this kind of story, you will be frightened. My ex-girlfriend is also like this. I used to scare her, and she screamed non-stop when she was scared."

As soon as Wu Chu mentioned his ex-girlfriend, Yan Youwei immediately remembered what Zeng Zimu had said to her.She didn't inquire directly, but said insinuatingly: "Then how did you break up? It sounds like you are also very affectionate."

"We didn't break up."

"No breakup?"

"It should be said that we broke up not because of someone who broke up, but because my ex-girlfriend passed away. There is no way, we can only separate because of the separation of yin and yang."

Although he already knew the answer, hearing Wu Chu say it with his own ears still made people feel very flustered.Yan Youwei stood on the side of the boat silently, but his body trembled uncontrollably.For some reason, she always felt that Wu Chu's expression was very solemn when he mentioned this matter, and his whole person was not as cheerful as he looked just now, and a layer of gloom suddenly enveloped him.

She suddenly regretted taking the child out for dinner with Wu Chu.

But Wu Chu was very calm, and took the initiative to care about Yan Youwei: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you this to scare you. Don't worry, my girlfriend was not murdered, her death was an accident."

"May I ask what the accident was?"

Wu Chu pursed her lips, and said with a bitter smile: "She fell in love with a rich and powerful man without telling me. Later, she became pregnant with his child. But that man didn't intend to marry her at all, so she had no choice but to marry her." Went to a small clinic to have an abortion. But there was an accident during the operation, and she died on the operating table."
