strange i love you

Chapter 27 Run, Grapefruit (5)
As soon as he finished speaking, the kitchen door opened again.Qin Zhihao came out, holding a big bowl in his hand: "Tonight we are going to eat dry pot."

Lin Youxi glanced at it, the bowl was brightly red, it was dried shrimp.

"It's such a good meal." Lu Li couldn't help but said, "I used to be with Yuzi, why didn't I see you come back to the kitchen for a week, now I have a big meal."

"Lily." Lin Youxi poked her with his arm.

The meal was dead, and no one said anything, only the sound of peeling shrimp and chopsticks touching the rice bowl broke the silence from time to time.In fact, today is the [-]th day that Qin Zhihao and his girlfriend have known each other. The two of them originally wanted to have a delicious meal to celebrate, but they didn't expect to kill two people halfway.What started out as a happy atmosphere suddenly became silent and embarrassing.

After finally finishing the meal, the girl offered to clean up the dishes and ask Qin Zhihao to chat with Lin Youxi, hoping that she would finish talking and leave early.

"We're here to ask for the money that belongs to Yuzu." Lu Li said straight to the point.

Qin Zhihao lit a cigarette, took a puff, and slowly exhaled the smoke, looking unhurried: "Didn't we agree on this matter?" He said and looked at Lin Youxi.

"At that time, who knew that you wanted this house to live with a bitch." Lu Li replied before Lin Youxi, "So we need money now, we get as much as we have, and IOUs for the rest. You didn't Money, doesn't your girlfriend have any?"

Qin Zhihao glanced at Lu Li with disdain: "This is between me and Youxi, don't make this house look like you paid for it in the first place."

"What Lily said is what I want to say." Lin Youxi looked at the man in front of him calmly, "I don't have a lot of money now, since you have a girlfriend, you can share it together, and you can still have some Bar."

"No." Qin Zhihao became impatient, "I said I had no money at the beginning, and now I don't have any."

"What do you mean?" Lin Youxi couldn't help but gasped, "You said you would return it to me before the end of the year."

"I did, but I have no money."

"I don't have any money, and I still bought so many things in the mall this morning."

Lu Li punctured him with one word, and Qin Zhihao was so angry that his face turned green, but he couldn't get angry, so he said, "Anyway, I can't afford the money now."

"Then you write an IOU." Lu Li said.

"Didn't you say before that you don't need to pay IOUs?" Qin Zhihao lowered his voice, "Youxi, don't you believe me?"

This time Lin Youxi did not soften her heart like before, she said: "I believe in the evidence in black and white."

"..." Qin Zhihao seemed to have been hit hard by a fist, and leaned on the sofa behind him a little dejectedly, took a few puffs of cigarettes, did not know what kind of ideological struggle he had, and finally said, "I don't know how to make IOUs, Anyway, the house has been transferred to my name."

Lu Li was so angry that she immediately jumped up: "Didn't you clearly renege on the debt?"

"I didn't say no."

"If you don't take out a penny and don't pay an IOU, what is it if you don't renege on your debt?"

Qin Zhihao stopped talking, and put out the cigarette butt: "I have to save my money for the wedding, so I can't move it out now."

Qin Zhihao spoke directly, and both Lu Li and Lin Youxi were stunned on the spot.

Lin Youxi wasn't sure if there was something wrong with what she heard: "What do you mean? Are you getting married?"

Everything in front of him was suddenly covered with mist, Qin Zhihao was separated by this mist, Lin Youxi couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.

"I didn't expect you to get married so soon." Lin Youxi said hoarsely, "Congratulations."

Qin Zhihao didn't speak, just kept silent.

The kitchen door opened, and Qin Zhihao's girlfriend came out from inside. She heard their conversation and felt that she could no longer hide inside and say nothing.

"It's not that we won't pay back the money, it's just that we really can't get it out for the time being." The girl stood behind and said something silently, then walked to Qin Zhihao and sat down.

Lin Youxi saw Qin Zhihao reach out to hold the girl's hand, and looked away: "Then issue an IOU."

"You go first." Qin Zhihao said to the girl.

"He's really good at protecting people." Lu Li said disdainfully.

After the girl entered the room, Qin Zhihao spoke again: "I don't have any money, and I don't know how to make IOUs. Go back."

"Then we will go through legal procedures to resolve it." Lin Youxi said.

"The house is in my name, do you think it can be done through legal procedures? It's just a waste of time and money."

"Qin Zhihao, how could you do this?" Lin Youxi burst into tears, "I trust you so much, how can you lie to me?"

"I didn't say no."

With a "slap", Lu Li was so angry that she stepped forward and slapped Qin Zhihao: "I never thought you would become such a rascal! I really misjudged you in college!"

Lin Youxi was frightened, she hurried to grab Lu Li, for fear that she would do something impulsive again.Qin Zhihao was also stunned, and covered the place where he was beaten with his hands, he also became angry from embarrassment, stood up, stared at Lu Li, his eyes were red, and asked Lu Li loudly: "What are you pretending to be a girlfriend here now! When you liked me back then, why didn't you think of the word girlfriend!"

After Qin Zhihao yelled these words, the scene immediately fell into a dead silence.

Lu Li opened her eyes wide and looked at Qin Zhihao in disbelief. She didn't expect him to tell the story. It's been so long that she even forgot that she once liked her best friend's boyfriend.Qin Zhihao had a vengeful smile on his face: "What, I'm sorry? At the beginning you clearly knew that Youxi and I were together, and you always texted and called me saying you liked me, but now you pretend to be so affectionate , I feel sorry for you."

"No, at that time I..." Lu Li wanted to explain, but the more she wanted to explain, the more nervous she became, and she felt her tongue was tied up, and she hesitated for a long time before she could utter a word.

"If you didn't have a boyfriend later, I really don't know how long you'll keep pestering me. Speaking of which, what right do you have to stand here and question me now. You're just—"

"Enough." Lin Youxi cut off his words, she took Lu Li's arm beside her, looked into Qin Zhihao's eyes and said, "She is my good friend, it's not your turn to question her."

Lin Youxi dragged Lu Li to the door, and Lu Li followed behind, shedding tears, completely losing her previous arrogance.

When going downstairs, Lu Li wanted to explain behind her back, but Lin Youxi turned her head, with a smile on her face: "What happened so long ago, why mention it? Aren't we doing well now?"

Looking at Lin Youxi's innocent smiling face, Lu Li felt even more guilty.At that time, she relied on her popularity and had no worries about anything. Later, when she finally grew up, she also experienced being robbed of her boyfriend by others and being a third party. To have love is a luxury, if you can get it, it is good, if you can't get it, you can live well.What's more, she has such a good friend by her side.

"Yuzi." Lu Li hugged Lin Youxi, "I'm sorry."

Lu Li told Lin Youxi that she had actually been preparing for teaching support for a while.

Before, when she was with the man who had a wife, he often took her to some small charity events.At the beginning, it was purely for the fun, but as the number of times increased, Lu Li thought it was very interesting. Sometimes she would pack up books and clothes that she had read and didn't want and send them to some schools in the mountainous area.Unexpectedly, the children in those schools would write to her with their childish pictures and thank-you letters. Lu Li did not expect that a small act of hers would receive such great gratitude from others.So sending things to schools in the mountains has become a part of her life.Although he no longer associates with that man, this habit has always been retained.

"I thought that since I couldn't find a job I liked for a while, it would be more meaningful to teach as a volunteer."

"Supporting teaching is very hard. If you want to be a teacher, you can go to a nearby school to apply for an English teacher." Lin Youxi persuaded her, fearing that she would be impulsive, "Also like in Tibetan areas, the ultraviolet rays are very strong. You can't do it in the past. After a while, the face will turn into plateau red."

"I've thought about all this. I bought schoolbags for those children with the wages paid by the company before. I think it's a kind of atonement for me to take them to meet those children." Lu Li paused when she said this , "Before I did so many wrong things, I wanted to find a place to calm down for a while. After returning to China, I didn't do anything serious, and I lived in a muddle. Why don't I do something meaningful, and by the way, I also think about my future. the way to go."

"Then how long are you going to go?"

"If I really want to go, I have to stay there for at least one semester. As for the specific time, I haven't decided yet. You can say that I was impulsive, but I think if I don't go this time, I will definitely regret it later. .”

"As long as you feel happy." Lin Youxi smiled, "Although I feel sad to think that you will be so far away from me again, as long as you are happy."

Lu Li smiled and hugged Lin Youxi: "Don't worry, I will call you from time to time, but don't do anything stupid if I'm not here."

"Don't worry." Lin Youxi blinked at her, "I'm sensible."

"The thought of not helping you get back the money Qin Zhihao owed you makes me angry."

"Forget it." Lin Youxi said, "I won't let him have such an easy time. Just take care of yourself after you go there, and don't worry about my business."

Before Lu Li left to support teaching, the two had a happy and harmonious life. Sometimes Lu Li would pick up Lin Youxi before she got off work, and then the two of them would go to the restaurant they bought online beforehand for dinner.Or Lu Li cooks at home and waits for Lin Youxi to go back, but after cooking a few times, Lin Youxi surrenders and begs her not to cook anymore, because it is too difficult to eat.In the evening, the two girls watched movies together, watched American dramas, and chatted privately. Although both of them were single, they were the happiest stage in a long time.

"By the way, if you still don't have a boyfriend when I come back, how about I introduce you to a Tibetan guy?" Lu Li joked.

Unexpectedly, Lin Youxi easily agreed: "Yes, anyway, I am an older single young woman now." Speaking of this, Lin Youxi thought of another worrying thing.

"What's the matter?" Seeing Lin Youxi suddenly distracted, Lu Li bumped her arm and asked.

"My parents still don't know about me and Qin Zhihao." Lin Youxi looked at her with a worried face, "I don't know how to say it now, and I haven't asked for the money from the house. The worst thing is that It's too ironic that Qin Zhihao is going to get married soon."

"He seems to be getting engaged next week. My former college classmates received his invitation. It is said that instead of going back to my hometown, it will be held in a hotel here."

Thinking of her unfulfilled engagement banquet, Lin Youxi's eyes darkened: "You can't get him so cheap."

"What do you want to do? Do you want to rob people or cars? I will accompany you when the time comes." Lu Li patted Lin Youxi's shoulder loyally.

After Lin Youxi finished talking about her thoughts, Lu Li praised in admiration: "This trick doesn't need to break anything. It will definitely make them jump in anger, but we can't do anything to us."

The two snickered like thieves, as if they were going to play a good game instead of attending their ex's wedding.
