Chapter 398 I Want to Hit Someone
Chapter 398 I Want to Hit Someone
At the end of this semester, Tao Shuxin graduated a little late.
Originally, the two of them planned to have some fun before the long vacation, but they don’t have time this semester.
However, Tao Shuxin applied to stay in Jiangcheng for a few more days, but her mother didn't care. She just asked her to go home as soon as possible without setting a specific time.
This was unimaginable before, and it was good enough that her mother didn't scold her loudly or beat her.
Tao Shuxin was a little uncomfortable with the sudden loosening of control at home. It turned out that she had grown up and could no longer act like a child.
But Xu Mingyuan is too mature. I always feel like a child in front of him, which feels weird.
Well, I can still pretend to be young in front of him, but not in front of others. It's so embarrassing.
Because Xiao Yangzhi was around, Tao Shuxin didn't dare to mess around with Xu Mingyuan, but this bastard insisted on making some noise, as if he was really not afraid that Xiao Yangzhi would hear it.
Although it was a little exciting, Xu Mingyuan could pretend nothing happened, but she was still a little girl!
My paper-thin face was completely humiliated by this bastard Xu Mingyuan...
In fact, this was also done intentionally by Xu Mingyuan. After all, the way he and Xiao Yangzhi get along is very strange. No matter how stupid Tao Shuxin is, she will definitely find something wrong if they live together for a long time.
In order to dispel Tao Shuxin's doubts, Xu Mingyuan would prove to her from time to time: Xiao Taotao, you are a decent girlfriend, but don't think about some messy things, that's just deceiving yourself...
Xiao Yangzhi was never afraid that Xu Mingyuan would find girls outside. What she was afraid of was that she would be tempted and pay less attention to her.
Xu Mingyuan has experienced a lot and has seen many things like this. His wife does not care about her husband's misbehavior outside, but most of these people do it for money.
However, Xiao Yangzhi just wanted to have a home, which made Xu Mingyuan feel a little guilty.
But even though he felt guilty, he still chose to do it.
There was no way, he and Tao Shuxin were too deeply involved.
There is not only an emotional level between the two people, but also the involvement between two families.
The Xu family has few members, and his father is a rich second-generation who is not very reliable. The old man did not trust those distant relatives who were difficult to reach when he was alive, not to mention that Xu Mingyuan didn't even know them.
Upstream industries such as lithium, graphite, polyethylene, etc. are basically outsourced to Tao Changming.
The company was short of staff at the time, and in order to find trustworthy people, even He Qiong's brother and brother-in-law were asked to be responsible for part of the purchasing.
Being so deeply involved, if he and Tao Shuxin were to separate, it would not only be a setback in their relationship, but there would also be too many uncertain factors that would affect them.
In fact, Xu Mingyuan is not worried about Tao Changming. This old guy values profit more. For the sake of his career, it doesn't matter if his girl makes a little sacrifice.
But He Qiong's side is more troublesome, because everyone in her family is relatively decent.
When He Qiong married Tao Changming in her early years, her family tried to object in every way, but she was stubborn and eventually gave birth to Tao Shuxin.
It was because Tao Shuxin's stubborn temper was inherited from her ancestors that Xu Mingyuan used a step-by-step approach to smooth out the girl's edges bit by bit.
After all, Tao Shuxin used to be able to do something stupid like waiting for Xu Mingyuan in order to confront Teacher He.
Xu Mingyuan was also afraid that this little girl would turn love into hatred, so when Tao Shuxin got stubborn, she said: Hey! You bastard, you dare to let me down, right? I will never marry you in this life, let's see what you can do to me...
Xu Mingyuan didn't know whether this situation was possible, but to be on the safe side, he had to prepare in advance.
Xu Mingyuan did not tell Xiao Yangzhi about these interests because she was too lazy to listen.
As long as she couldn't let go of Xiao Yangzhi, she wouldn't care about anything and would just ignore how Xu Mingyuan dealt with it.
He can even cooperate with Xu Mingyuan, and his attitude of allowing himself to be bullied is heartbreaking.
After having fun in Jiangcheng for a few days, the three of them were either playing games or playing poker at home. Then, before going to bed at night, Xu Mingyuan would play a few more games alone with the girl.
The next morning, the three of them returned to Nanxi together, carrying the luggage that Tao Shuxin had packed the night before.
On the road, Xu Mingyuan was driving Tao Shuxin's small BMW. His car was left in the parking space of the community. He would return to Jiangcheng in two days, and then he could ride in his father's Mercedes-Benz.
Since Xiao Yangzhi was there, Tao Shuxin pulled her to sit in the back seat and let Xu Mingyuan sit in the driver's seat alone.
After being tormented by Xu Mingyuan for several days in a row and not letting her go early in the morning, Tao Shuxin was lazily half-lying on the chair. She felt that even if she couldn't see Xu Mingyuan for half a month, she would not think of doing bad things.
"Xiao Zhizhi, give me your hand, I'll read your palm... Wow, your hands are so smooth!"
Tao Shuxin opened her eyes wide.
Seeing that Xiao Yangzhi didn't eat snacks with him, Tao Shuxin stuffed a piece of candy into his mouth and pulled Xiao Yangzhi's hand to fiddle with it.
Her own hands were chubby, but Xiao Yangzhi's hands were different. They were slender and thin, with blue veins clearly visible under the skin like jade threads, extending to the wrists and disappearing. They were so delicate that Tao Shuxin was reluctant to let go.
"..."
Yang Zhi frowned and wanted to pull his hand back.
I don’t know if Tao Shuxin learned this from her brother. Why does she like to touch her hands so much?
Of course it’s okay with Xu Mingyuan, after all, he is the person she likes, but Tao Shuxin is a bit weird. People of the same sex repel each other, and Yang Zhi even gets goosebumps.
"Sorry, hehehehe..." Tao Shuxin smiled foolishly and pulled Xiao Yangzhi's hand, not letting her pull it back, and continued: "I'm just touching you, what are you afraid of? Come on, come on, I'll let you touch me as you like."
"I won't touch it." Yang Zhi pulled his hand back and said.
"Come on, come on, I'll calculate it for you, oh, please don't mind..."
Xiao Yangzhi is annoying with actions, while Tao Shuxin is annoying with words. Both of them are very stubborn and will not give up until they achieve their goals.
Yang Zhi glanced at Xu Mingyuan from the rearview mirror and saw that he had no intention of helping. He was just concentrating on the road ahead.
Yang Zhi, who had not learned to resist, had no choice but to give up her hand. "Look, this is your lifeline, you will live a long life. This is your destiny line, the fork in the front is a bit messy, which means you had a bumpy road, but the future will be smooth..." Tao Shuxin shook his head and preached in a serious manner.
"..."
Yang Zhi didn't answer. It was obvious that she learned this from her brother.
Xu Mingyuan can still explain the reasons clearly, but Tao Shuxin just relies on fooling people.
At first, Yang Zhi was frightened by Xu Mingyuan. Later, when she asked him if it was true, he told her the truth: it was just a little trick to guess people's minds and he did it for fun.
"Your love life is full of ups and downs. It's hard to find someone who truly loves you, as beautiful as you are." Tao Shuxin said seriously.
"You are wrong. My brother said that I will definitely spend my whole life with the person I love."
Yang Zhi withdrew her hand and glanced at Xu Mingyuan. Seeing that he smiled at her, she returned him a beautiful smile.
When Tao Shuxin saw Xiao Yangzhi's sweet smile, she couldn't help but be stunned.
Wow! Xiao Zhizhi! I didn’t expect you to be such a love-brained person!
God knows who will end up with such a pretty little girl...
Tao Shuxin did not go home, but went to Xu Mingyuan's house first, which was only a few minutes' walk from the highway.
No. 3 Middle School was still at work until mid-July, and I was not in a hurry to go home to see my mother, so I went for a stroll around his house first.
"Hello, uncle."
As soon as Tao Shuxin saw Xu Jun, he immediately bowed 90 degrees.
"Haha, hello to you too. Say hello to your parents for me." Xu Jun said with a smile.
"Okay, thank you uncle~"
Tao Shuxin happily took the red envelope handed over by Xu Jun.
Every time I see Xu Mingyuan’s father, I receive red envelopes, which is really a pleasure.
I will definitely tell my parents when I get home, and also give Xu Mingyuan a big red envelope.
Xu Mingyuan is not short of money, and the red envelopes will eventually fall into his hands, so Tao Shuxin can receive two red envelopes at once.
Hey, it’s wonderful just thinking about it.
However, Tao Shuxin felt strange when she saw the woman following Xu Jun.
But seeing that Uncle Xu had no intention of introducing, and Xu Mingyuan and Xiao Yangzhi ignored her, she didn't say anything.
After Xu Jun left with the woman, Tao Shuxin nudged Xu Mingyuan and asked in a low voice, "Brother Yuanyuan, is that your stepmother?"
"Guess?" Xu Mingyuan asked with a smile.
"Uh..." Tao Shuxin hesitated for a moment, scratched his hair and said, "So young, probably around 30 years old?"
Tao Shuxin tried to exaggerate his age, as if he was not much older than herself, probably only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old at most.
"Hey, why are you, a kid, asking so many questions about adult matters?"
Xu Mingyuan shook his head and ignored it.
Xu Mingyuan has no control over how his old father plays outside, but it is not good to bring him home. If not possible, he can just buy a house for him outside.
I'll just give him a subtle hint tomorrow. As a son, I can't be too blunt.
Yang Zhi lowered her head silently, because she was worried that Xu Jun would remarry, so she held on to Xu Mingyuan at all costs, hoping that he could give her a home.
After her mother left, although she had expected this to happen and Xu Mingyuan had also mentioned it, she couldn't help feeling sad when she saw it with her own eyes.
Xu Mingyuan stepped forward, put his arms around Xiao Yangzhi's delicate shoulders and squeezed them gently.
I'm used to everything. As a normal man, my father wouldn't allow me to find a woman, right?
However, Yang Zhi certainly did not have the awareness of Xu Mingyuan. Apart from being confused, he could not think of anything to say at this moment.
Yang Zhi couldn't bear the grievance in her heart, so she turned around and hugged Xu Mingyuan tightly, not wanting to let go at all.
Xu Mingyuan just stroked her back gently, giving her a moment of comfort.
My father is not a good person, and I am not a good person either. Little Yangzhi is also pitiful.
Tao Shuxin looked at the two people hugging each other tightly and scratched his head subconsciously. Seeing such a loving scene between brother and sister, he felt that it seemed a bit redundant for him to stay here.
But how could the kind-hearted Tao Shuxin leave so easily?
In the end, Tao Shuxin followed Xu Mingyuan's example, patted Xiao Yangzhi's back and said, "Xiao Zhizhi, it's okay. If you don't like this stepmother, you can ask your dad to change her."
When Tao Shuxin saw that the woman's face was painted like a slut, she thought that she was not a good woman, so she sincerely advised Xiao Yangzhi.
"..."
Yang Zhi, feeling heartbroken, opened her mouth slightly, not knowing how to respond.
Although Yang Zhi had never fought with anyone, sometimes she really wanted to hit someone...
