Chapter 477 I Don’t Want to Endure

Chapter 477 I Don’t Want to Endure

Tao Shuxin knew that Xiao Yangzhi was timid, but she didn't expect her to be so timid.

Isn't it just taking her out for a day? What's there to be afraid of?

Just when Tao Shuxin was confused and feeling strange, Xu Mingyuan spoke first.

"Xiao Taotao, did you bully her?"

"How could I bully her?" Tao Shuxin said.

"Why did Xiao Yangzhi suffer injustice?"

"How would I know? She didn't tell me." Tao Shuxin said with a pout.

"Xiao Yangzhi, what's going on?"

"She insisted on dragging me to watch the pig being slaughtered..." Yang Zhi muttered.

"This..." Tao Shuxin scratched his head and said awkwardly: "I just wanted to tease her, I didn't really go to see her..."

"She kept snoring last night and kept me awake. Brother, let's go home. I want to catch up on some sleep." Yang Zhi pleaded.

"Damn it! Xiao Zhizhi, you are talking nonsense! I don't snore when I sleep!"

Tao Shuxin is a girl after all, and she has always taken her image very seriously. When she saw Xiao Yangzhi was slandering her, her face suddenly turned red and puffed up into little puffy cheeks.

"That's how it is..." Yang Zhi complained in a low voice.

"Xu Mingyuan, tell me, do I snore when I sleep?" Tao Shuxin asked.

"No, he just hums and smacks his lips occasionally."

"You're talking nonsense. I won't smack my lips." Tao Shuxin said angrily.

"If you don't believe me, I'll record it for you."

"Record it! Record it now! I really don't believe it..." Tao Shuxin said with a stiff face and a guilty conscience.

Little Taotao's doubts were just dispelled by Xu Mingyuan's jokes.

Of course, the doubts will not be reduced, they will just be temporarily put aside.

Xu Mingyuan has no business dealings with Tao Shuxin's aunt's family, and they hardly meet each other throughout the year.

But with Tao Shuxin as the hub, whenever she came to her aunt's house to ask for money, she would bring a portion for Xu Mingyuan.

Xu Mingyuan was naturally not stingy, and he also took cigarettes and alcohol from home and returned the favor.

Tao Shuxin inherited a considerable amount of the Tao family's worldliness and is very concerned about face in his bones.

For example, buying a car or jewelry is all for the sake of showing off. Also, getting scholarships and taking various exams is partly for the sake of showing off one's abilities.

Xu Mingyuan greatly satisfied Tao Shuxin's psychological needs. He was quite capable both inside and outside.

"Come here, listen to what Xiaozhizhi said, you don't like girls who are too smart?"

Seeing that he was about to be pulled to the main table to drink, Tao Shuxin pulled Xu Mingyuan, who was still talking nonsense, out of the crowd.

"How is that possible? You're just listening to her nonsense." Xu Mingyuan said.

"Huh, she said she is the one who knows you best~~~" Tao Shuxin said sarcastically.

"How could that be? You are the one. If I like stupid girls, I could just find the girls who rank last in the class, wouldn't it be better?" Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Isn't it because I'm not good-looking?"

Tao Shuxin rolled her eyes. It's not that she doesn't know Xu Mingyuan. She knows exactly what kind of person he is.

After all, in school, he often looked at pretty girls, and was not willing to look at girls who were not so pretty, and he even called it appreciation, tsk tsk…

"Are you stupid? If I like stupid girls, why didn't I look for Yu Caiwei who was applying to an art school? You have such a high IQ, why would I look for you?" Xu Mingyuan asked back.

"Oh, that's right! I told you, Xiao Zhizhi, you still want to lie to me? Do you think you are so smart just because my college entrance examination score is lower than yours? Humph..."

Tao Shuxin thought about it and felt that what Xu Mingyuan said was absolutely right.

Yang Zhi, who was listening nearby, sighed softly, thinking that these two idiots were most likely beyond help.

"Xiao Zhizhi, what's that look in your eyes? Isn't that right?"

Seeing Xiao Yangzhi looking at her with disdain, Tao Shuxin suddenly became unhappy.

"..."

Yang Zhi turned his eyes away and simply ignored her.

"Hey, Brother Xiaoyuan, don't go back today. There are a lot of empty rooms in my aunt's house. Why don't you play there for another day?" Tao Shuxin said.

Hearing this, Yang Zhi looked at Xu Mingyuan, without any big movements, just biting her lips lightly, with a look of unwillingness on her face.

"I have a lot of things to do in the company, so it's nice that I can come and see you. How about this, you come back to Nanxi with me first, and we can have fun all night." Xu Mingyuan said.

"Get lost, who wants to spend the whole night with you? You are so shameless!"

Tao Shuxin glared at Xu Mingyuan hard.

"How am I shameless? What are you thinking about?" Xu Mingyuan said.

"Then why don't we just play from here? Why should we go back?" Tao Shuxin asked back.

"I have to go to the company tomorrow morning. You know how busy the end of the year is." "Tsk, you just make excuses." Tao Shuxin said unhappily.

"What's there to do in the countryside? Can I play cards with your uncle and his family?"

"Can't you learn something?"

"What? I'm bringing a bunch of kids to play with firecrackers?"

"Well, it would be better if you didn't drive here, then I could go back with you. I'm going to take my aunt and my brothers and sisters to my grandfather's house in a couple of days. It would be so inconvenient if we each drove a car." Tao Shuxin said with a pout.

"Then wait until you return to Nanxi, and I'll go to your grandpa's house with you."

"Let's wait until after the New Year."

“Isn’t it different to turn once before and once after the New Year?”

"You said it, if you don't come you're a puppy."

Xu Mingyuan's words hit the nail on the head for Tao Shuxin. It must be said that his attitude towards life was very comforting.

In fact, Tao Shuxin also wanted to transfer to Xu Mingyuan's relatives, but he had too few relatives on that side.

There are only a few distant relatives who are not even remotely related to him. Even Xu Mingyuan is not very familiar with him, so it is impossible for Tao Shuxin to try to establish a relationship with him.

Xu Mingyuan was not in a hurry to leave. He caught a plane early in the morning and then came to pick up Xiao Yangzhi. He didn't get much rest along the way.

Xu Mingyuan was so sleepy that he found a place to take a nap after dinner. When he woke up, it was a little cloudy outside.

Little Yangzhi was sitting nearby, also dozing off sleepily.

"Where's Tao Tao?"

"She took the kids to play poker."

"Why don't you go?"

"It's too noisy."

"Will you stay here for one night?" Xu Mingyuan asked.

At noon, he was still pulled to the main table to drink a glass of wine. Although he didn't drink much, he was driving home now and it was probably getting dark.

"Brother, are you dizzy? Let me give you a massage. If you can go back, go back. We can leave at night..."

Yang Zhi wanted to go home very much. Even if she had to live in the car, she didn't want to stay at someone else's house.

"Forget it, let's go now. I'll go say hello."

Xu Mingyuan squeezed her palm and climbed out of bed.

After another round of polite greetings, Xu Mingyuan filled the trunk of his car, declined the invitation to dinner, and left with Xiao Yangzhi.

Tao Shuxin looked at the receding taillights and couldn't help but frown.

As soon as Xu Mingyuan came back, Xiao Yangzhi's mental state improved visibly. Her dull eyes became bright, and she seemed like a completely different person.

Maybe it's just the sister's admiration for her brother? After all, Xu Mingyuan is so capable...

On the road.

Xiao Yangzhi looked at Xu Mingyuan intently, as if he was worried that he had not sobered up by the evening from the alcohol he drank at noon. He just kept staring at him, as if he was afraid that he would suddenly doze off and step on the accelerator and drive into the ditch.

"Brother, can we find a place to park the car?" Yang Zhi said in a low voice.

"Okay, what's wrong?"

Xu Mingyuan found a wide roadside and parked the car.

"Brother, how do I turn off this light?"

Yang Zhi pointed to the lights in the carport.

"what."

Xu Mingyuan smiled, raised his hand to turn off the switch, and turned off the headlights as well.

The moment the car lights were turned off, Xiao Yangzhi unbuckled her seat belt and rushed over, hugging him tightly.

After a long time, Xiao Yangzhi finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"Brother, please don't leave me for so long in the future, okay?"

"it is good."

"Ah."

Yang Zhi nodded and rubbed it gently with her cheek.

"How many days have I been gone?"

"It's been six days since the morning I left..."

"You weren't like this before. You were separated for more than a month."

"I could bear it before, but now I don't want to bear it anymore."

Yang Zhi took a deep breath, sniffed the scent on Xu Mingyuan's body, and then pressed her cold lips against his.
