Translator: Transn Editor: Transn Su Qin left. Qin Sheng owed Su Qin in this relationship, so he felt guilty every time he saw her.
He used to be young and ignorant. He thought that if he broke up with Su Qin, he would not look back and just move on without disturbing others or torturing himself. Later, he found that everything was so naive. The most painful thing in the world was not being able to be with the one he loved deeply. Qin Sheng thought that he had completely let go of Su Qin, but he still could not calm down when he saw her again. Unfortunately, he had met Lin Su, so he had to move on.
However, Su Qin had been waiting for him all these years. Even though he left without saying goodbye for more than two years, she still waited for him silently. If Su Qin had not loved him so deeply, she might have said goodbye to being single long ago. After all, there was absolutely no lack of excellent pursuers around her. It was just that she could not let go of Qin Sheng.
Unfortunately, Qin Sheng had Lin Su, so he could not abandon Lin Su. Su Qin could only force herself to let go of Qin Sheng slowly. Now she was actually in a good state. She had gradually recovered to the previous Su Qin. She would pretend that Qin Sheng had never come back. Therefore, when she saw Song Ruyu beside Qin Sheng today, she subconsciously thought that Qin Sheng was deliberately acting and just wanted her to let go of him. That was why she could face it so calmly.
Unfortunately, she did not know that it was not acting, but the truth.
Fortunately, she did not know that. If she knew, she would probably break down again, because she could not accept this fact, let alone believe that Qin Sheng was such a person.
After all these years, Su Qin seemed to be the same Su Qin when they were in high school. She would not think too much about things. She would just follow what she thought. Especially when it came to him, it seemed that Su Qin had always trusted him incomparably. Even this time, it was the same. Su Qin's heart was filled with regret.
There was no starting over in life. Now Qin Sheng had wronged too many people. He did not know what Su Qin would think after knowing the truth. He hoped that Su Qin would not hate him at that time. Alas, it was okay to hate him. Maybe it was better this way. If there was an afterlife, he would definitely not leave Xi 'an. In this way, he would not have lost Su Qin, met Lin Su, and would not have let them down.
When Qin Sheng returned to the private room, everyone was surprised to see only Qin Sheng without Su Qin. Song Ruyu took the initiative to ask, "Where is Su Qin?"
Qin Sheng explained casually, "She said she had something to do, so she left first."
Song Ruyu seemed to be lost in thought. However, since there were so many people around, she didn't ask anything. She just nodded slightly. Of course, the others were also guessing the meaning behind it. It was possible that Su Qin had left in anger after knowing the truth. It was also possible that Qin Sheng felt that it was inappropriate to drive Su Qin away. There were all kinds of possibilities. However, it had nothing to do with them. Anyway, it was between Su Qin and Qin Sheng that they should not get involved. If they annoyed Su Qin, they would offend Qin Sheng. Qin Sheng was no longer the Qin Sheng in the past.
They could not afford to offend any of them. In the afternoon, they drank tea and chatted. Song Ruyu was very curious about Qin Sheng when he was in middle school and high school, so she asked a lot of things about that time. Anyway, they only talked about the things that happened in school. They talked about the things that happened at that time, but they all tacitly erased the things about Su Qin. Song Ruyu was also very sensible and did not ask about it. Qin Sheng did not think it was a big deal because he knew what kind of woman Song Ruyu was. She could not care less about Lin Su's things, so how could she care about the things that happened in school?
Later, they chatted casually. Song Ruyu had nothing to do, so she asked Meng Zhe, Zhao Xuan, and Wu Hao what they did for a living. Everyone told her the truth. Song Ruyu talked about company management, corporate culture, and corresponding industries with them. Almost everything she said was true, which made Meng Zhe, Zhao Xuan, and Wu Hao look at her in a new light. They did not expect Song Ruyu to be so excellent. In the end, Meng Zhe could not help but ask her what she did for a living. Song Ruyu said with a smile that she was a civil servant. Zhao Xuan asked her which ministry she worked for.
Song Ruyu was Qin Sheng's fiancée. Based on the Qin Family's background, the woman who could make Qin Sheng give up Lin Su and marry her must be from a big family in Sijiu City. Those who came from big families to be civil servants must be working in a ministry. Therefore, Zhao Xuan asked her which ministry she worked for. Secondly, it was to show respect to Song Ruyu. He was afraid that Song Ruyu would think that he belittled her if he said too little.
Song Ruyu did not hide anything. She told them her company honestly. Meng Zhe, Zhao Xuan, and Wu Hao heard the name of the company.
They were all dumbfounded and did not know what to say for a while. They could only admire Song Ruyu from the bottom of their hearts. Song Ruyu was really not a normal person.
They did not go to any high-end restaurant for dinner. Qin Sheng still loved barbecue and beer the most. These were the memories of summer. Seeing that summer was about to pass, how could he miss it when he finally returned to Xi 'an?
They went to the same old place, the Small Bamboo Stick Barbecue on Yanta North Road. The beer was still the same as before. The dishes were still the same, and the people were still the same. However, many things had changed quietly. Nothing could go back to the past.
Qin Sheng did not drink to his heart's content. He only drank three or four bottles of beer. The others drank more. Song Ruyu drank a glass symbolically.
Before 10 o 'clock, everyone left. Meng Zhe and the others did not continue to ask unless Qin Sheng took the initiative to invite them. They all knew that Qin Sheng would not return to Xi' an for no reason. Of course, Qin Sheng did not invite them. He only said that he must go to Beijing next time. Therefore, they left.
However, when Qin Sheng returned to the Qujiang Mansion with Song Ruyu, Lin Xi and Wang Li asked worriedly, "You didn't drink too much, did you?"
Qin Sheng smiled and shook his head. "Just a little."
"That's good." Wang Li smiled and nodded. "We still have business tomorrow. We won't bother you anymore. The rooms on the second floor have been prepared for you. Go and rest early."
After saying this, Wang Li directly turned around and left. She was going to get some fruits for Qin Sheng and Song Ruyu, but she did not know that Song Ruyu was stunned and at a loss. Qin Sheng also did not know how to solve this problem, because Uncle Lin and Auntie Wang did not know that they had not lived together. Maybe they thought that the relationship between Qin Sheng and Song Ruyu had already broken through the last line of defense. After all, when Qin Sheng brought Lin Su back, they lived at home. They did not know that this was not the case. This made Qin Sheng and Song Ruyu a little embarrassed.
In fact, Qin Sheng had already booked a hotel for Song Ruyu outside, which was the newly opened W Hotel. Of course, he would stay at home with Uncle Lin and Auntie Wang. This was his home. Since when did he have to live outside?
Now that Auntie Wang had made such an arrangement, Qin Sheng was at a loss for a moment. However, he thought that he and Song Ruyu had not reached that stage yet. If they lived together like this, it would make Song Ruyu feel uncomfortable. Therefore, Qin Sheng could only bite the bullet and prepare to say that Song Ruyu would stay at the hotel tonight. He thought that Uncle Lin and Auntie Wang would naturally understand what was going on.
However, when he was about to say something, Song Ruyu stopped him, which made Qin Sheng somewhat confused. Song Ruyu signaled Qin Sheng not to say anything. After smiling and chatting with Uncle Lin and Auntie Wang for a while, she directly led Qin Sheng to the room upstairs.
This was a master bedroom with a bathroom and a balcony. It was the room that Lin Xi and Wang Li had reserved for Qin Sheng after they moved in. Even if Qin Sheng could only come back two or three times a year, this room was reserved for him because they had long regarded Qin Sheng as their own son.
After returning to the room, Song Ruyu directly said, "Let's stay here tonight. Don't let Uncle Lin and Auntie Wang make trouble again. They definitely won't let me stay in the hotel. In a while, they will have to clean up another bedroom."
Qin Sheng felt that Song Ruyu was really reasonable and more considerate than him. He had no choice but to say, "Then you sleep on the bed, and I'll sleep on the floor."
"Okay." Song Ruyu nodded slightly and said no more.
Qin Sheng smiled somewhat awkwardly and said, "Take a shower first. I'll chat with Uncle Lin for a while."
After that, Qin Sheng went out and chatted with Uncle Lin downstairs for a while. After smoking two cigarettes, he came back. During the chat, Qin Sheng took the initiative to tell Uncle Lin that he had met Su Qin today, which shocked Lin Xi, who was afraid that there would be more trouble. Qin Sheng smiled and said that it was nothing, asking Uncle Lin not to overthink it.
When Qin Sheng returned to the room, Song Ruyu was already lying down in her pajamas. The pajamas, slippers, and other daily necessities had been bought by Wang Li in advance. Even the bedsheets were new. After all, this was the first time that Song Ruyu had come to their home, so they could not let her feel uncomfortable.
"Go take a shower," Song Ruyu said somewhat embarrassedly. She could be calm about anything, but she was after all just a beginner when it came to matters between men and women. How could she be so calm?
Qin Sheng nodded and went to take a shower. Men took a shower so quickly. The jokes on the Internet were not fake. In less than 15 minutes, Qin Sheng came out in his pajamas, took a blanket, and hugged a pillow.
He slept on the floor. He had experienced the days of using the floor as his bed and the sky as his quilt. This condition was already very good.
Song Ruyu was about to turn off the light after asking a few questions. Unexpectedly, Wang Li knocked on the door at this time. Hearing Auntie Wang's voice, the two of them were a little flustered. They were afraid that Auntie Wang would find out their secret, so they hurriedly packed up. Then Qin Sheng went to open the door.
Auntie Wang stood at the door with fruits and milk in her hands. "Did I disturb you?"
"No, no." Qin Sheng scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly. Then he took the plate from Auntie Wang's hands and said thank you with a smile.
When Qin Sheng put the things on the head of the bed, Song Ruyu and Qin Sheng happened to look into each other's eyes. Both of them couldn't help laughing out loud. Who knew that there would be such a dramatic scene? They probably didn't expect it, so they felt somewhat guilty.
After laughing, there was no more interlude this time. They turned off the light and went to sleep. One was on the bed, and the other was on the floor. It seemed that Qin Sheng was going to be Liu Xiahui.
After a few minutes of silence, both of them knew that the other was still awake. No one said anything.
In the end, it was Song Ruyu who took the initiative to say, "Your first girlfriend is quite beautiful. She's even more beautiful than I thought. It seems that you were also a school hunk in high school. Otherwise, how could you have pursued your campus belle?"
"These are all stories of the past. If you really want to hear it, I can tell you all day and all night," Qin Sheng said half-jokingly.
"Why did she suddenly leave today?" Song Ruyu asked unhurriedly, "Did you ask her to leave? Or are you afraid that I will overthink it? "
Since Song Ruyu asked, Qin Sheng told the truth. "Meng Zhe did not expect that I would bring you back, so he made the decision to ask Su Qin to come here. When he saw you, he regretted it. However, Su Qin was already here, so I could not say anything. After all, even though we have broken up, we are still friends. Those who never contact each other are enemies. She asked me to go out to ask about you. I told her that you were my fiancée, but she did not believe me at all. She thought that I deliberately asked you to come here just to make her let go of me. She said that there was no need to do that, because she had already let go of me. Later, she said that the atmosphere would be awkward if she was here, so she excused herself and left. I did not say anything. That was the whole process. "
"Oh." After hearing this, Song Ruyu understood the logic in the middle. No wonder Su Qin was not surprised after hearing her identity. It turned out that she did not believe it at all. Song Ruyu did not doubt Qin Sheng's words. Everything made sense. Moreover, there was no need for Qin Sheng to lie.
"It seems that she loves you very much," Song Ruyu said with some emotion.
Qin Sheng did not say anything. He did not know how to continue this topic. In the end, he chose to remain silent. Song Ruyu felt that it was unnecessary to talk about this, so she changed the topic and talked about some unimportant things.
Perhaps the air conditioner was too cold. Song Ruyu could not help but tighten the quilt. She thought that Qin Sheng was still sleeping on the floor. The floor in summer was different from that in winter. If there was a floor heater in winter, it would be very comfortable to sleep on the floor. However, in summer, it would be cold to sleep on the floor with an air conditioner, which was not good for one's health.
Song Ruyu hesitated. What should she do? If she did not allow Qin Sheng to sleep on the floor, he could only sleep on the bed with her. A man and a woman sleeping on the same bed, even if nothing happened, something would happen. Moreover, Qin Sheng was a normal man, but she …
However, if Qin Sheng continued to sleep on the floor, she would feel sorry for him. It seemed that Qin Sheng was not that kind of person. She trusted Qin Sheng very much. Moreover, they were about to get engaged. Sooner or later, they would get married. Even if they slept on the same bed now, it would not be a big deal. She was just thinking too much.
Song Ruyu tossed and turned in this way. After hesitating for a few minutes, she finally made a decision. She took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Qin Sheng, are you asleep?"
Indeed, Qin Sheng was not asleep. He heard Song Ruyu tossing and turning on the bed. He thought that Song Ruyu was not used to such an environment tonight. He was thinking of ways to let Song Ruyu sleep comfortably. Otherwise, it would be too torturous. Unexpectedly, Song Ruyu spoke first.
Qin Sheng turned around and said calmly, "Well, I'm not asleep yet. What's wrong?"
Song Ruyu plucked up her courage and said slowly, "Well, the floor is too cold. How about you sleep on the bed?"
After saying this, Song Ruyu was embarrassed and covered her face with the quilt. She could not face Qin Sheng at all.
Qin Sheng was speechless.
