But she still felt wronged.
Had she treated him badly?
After what happened to the Lin family, those people avoided him but she had never looked down on him because of the family situation.
She gave him the greatest help and support.
In the beginning of his entrepreneurship, she had even worked overtime with him on vacation to help him settle his clients.
She had been pampered since she was young and could not be a virtuous girlfriend.
But when she saw him working overtime so hard, she learned how to cook soup from her own chef, even getting blisters on her fingers. Later, she was even laughed at by him for not being able to cook.
Tang Wu laughed.
What she had done was probably nothing compared to Meng Rui’s sweet words.
The last thing she knew was to act coquettishly.
Men probably liked soft and delicate girls like Meng Rui!
Tang Wu walked forward. From the moment she drove out of Lin Xiurui’s apartment, she could not turn back.
After walking for some time, someone suddenly bumped into Tang Wu from behind.
Then, he snatched the bag in Tang Wu’s hand.
It was a thief in the middle of the night.
Tang Wu did not plan to chase after him. It wouldn’t be so easy to steal her bag. The thief would naturally be sent to the police station tomorrow.
Tang Wu did not chase after him, but someone else did.
A thin and tall figure quickly caught up with the thief who had run into the alley.
Through the rain, Tang Wu saw that the thief was quickly pressed to the ground by the person.
After the thief begged for mercy, the man took the bag from the thief and let go of him.
The thief ran away.
That person took Tang Wu’s bag and walked up to her, returning it to her.
Tang Wu looked up at the person standing in front of her.
He looked strangely familiar.
Seeing that Tang Wu did not take the bag, the young man put it on the ground and turned to leave.
“Wait…” Tang Wu stopped him.
At the same time, she remembered that the young man was bullied by the young lady of the Chu family at the hospital that day.
Lan Yue turned around and looked at Tang Wu. “What’s wrong?”
She sniffed and said unhappily, “I’ll give the bag to you.”
Lan Yue was stunned for a moment before he shook his head. “No need.”
Was this boy stupid?
Any random sale of her bag was enough for him to buy a small apartment.
“Then what do you want?”
She looked up at him. This boy was really tall.
His eyes were as black as glass, perhaps because of the mist.
They were really pretty.
“Nothing.”
He turned and left.
Tang Wu did not know if he had recognized her, but this boy was too heartless!
He had left just like that?
Lan Yue had just returned from work and was going to the rented house to change his clothes.
He walked into the alley and found that someone was following him. He turned back and saw the woman who had almost been robbed. He did not know what she wanted to do and he looked at her blankly. “Don’t follow me.”
Tang Wu blinked. Her long eyelashes were wet, and her long hair was wet with rainwater and stuck to her cheek. She looked a little fragile and pitiful. “I don’t know where I’m going. I’m so cold and hungry.”
Lan Yue looked at her silently.
He went forward again.
Tang Wu followed behind him.
He was really tall.
The house he rented was at the end of the alley in a very old four-story house.
He rented the second floor.
It was a narrow single room.
But there was a separate bathroom and kitchen.
After he entered, he brought her a clean towel.
Tang Wu took off her high heels and stepped barefoot on the floor.
Her feet were very fair and slender, her toes painted with nail polish.
Lan Yue glanced at her feet and quickly looked away.
Tang Wu wiped her hair and was looking around Lan Yue’s residence when she heard a sound coming from the door.
The silly boy went out.
Tang Wu touched her face. Did her makeup look scary?
Tang Wu found a chair and sat down.
A few minutes later, the door opened again.
The silly boy came in with a bag.
He passed her a pair of new slippers, which had an ugly design. He then passed her a t-shirt and shorts.
Tang Wu furrowed her eyebrows. “It hasn’t been washed. Do you have anything that you’ve washed?”
He looked at her, frowning slightly.
He did not seem to understand why she was wearing his clothes.
She did not take his new clothes and he stood still.
They continued to stare at each other.
Until she sneezed.
He turned and took out a black t-shirt and pants from the simple cabinet.
Tang Wu took it, got up, and entered the bathroom.
When she came out of the shower, he had already made a cup of ginger tea and cooked a bowl of noodles.
Seeing her come out, he quickly turned around and went to the bathroom.
Seeing her clothes in the bathroom, he put them in the basin.
In order to maintain her slim figure, Tang Wu rarely ate in the middle of the night.
But she had not eaten dinner today and was really hungry now.
She had eaten all sorts of delicacies but after eating the bowl of noodles the boy had cooked, she felt that it was delicious.
Seeing an unfinished carton of beer in the corner, she took out a few cans.
After having her fill, she did not feel so down anymore.
She opened her bag, wanting to take out her phone to call a taxi, but found that there was no phone in her bag.
It was only then that she remembered that she had thrown her phone on the front passenger seat of the car!
Lan Yue came out of the shower and changed the bedsheets.
He did not look at Tang Wu, who was only wearing a t-shirt. He frowned when he saw several empty beer cans on the table. He said nothing and lay down on the sofa.
Tang Wu’s eyes were on Lan Yue the entire time. Her lips twitched when she saw him lying down on the sofa with his face facing the back of the sofa and the back of his head facing her.
Was she that scary?
He did not even look at her.
Tang Wu glanced out of the window. It was still raining.
She then looked at the young man lying on the sofa and looked at his broad shoulders and long legs. She could not help but smile.
It was the second time they had met, but she was didn’t worry about being in the same room as him.
She walked to the bed in the slippers he had bought.
The bedsheets had a faint soapy smell.
Tang Wu closed her eyes and listened to the sound of the rain outside. Her eyelids became heavy.
She slept.
She had a dream.
In her dream, she saw Lin Xiurui and Meng Rui walking into that apartment.
She saw everything.
She jolted awake from her dream.
In the narrow and simple house, she lay on the bed while the young man lay on the sofa.
His hands and legs were long and the small sofa could not hold him at all. His legs were propped on the ground. It was uncomfortable to look at him sleeping like that.
Tang Wu sat up.
She stared at the young man’s back in a daze.
She could not fall asleep after waking up. She rubbed her face with her hands and walked barefoot on the floor.
She did not know if it was because she had drunk, but she walked to the sofa.
The young man was asleep, his face no longer facing the sofa but the ceiling.
He was wearing a thin jacket.
Tang Wu’s gaze brushed past his eyes, lips, and nose.
What an exquisite boy.
Even the wound on his forehead looked pretty good.
Lan Yue seemed to have felt something. He opened his eyes and met Tang Wu’s charming and beautiful eyes.
He did not expect her to be squatting here and he frowned slightly.
Seeing that he was awake, she did not feel embarrassed. “How old are you?”
He frowned and said nothing.
“Are you still dating Chu Li?”
His frown deepened.
“Were you dumped?”
He was silent.
Tang Wu smirked. “You must have really been dumped. What a coincidence. I was cheated on today too.”
He looked at her and seemed to understand why she was walking in the heavy rain in the middle of the night and was indifferent to having her bag stolen.
“Am I good-looking?” When she smiled, she was so beautiful that people could not open their eyes.
He looked away, not looking at her.
Seeing that he was silent, she touched his face. “Your face is as red as cooked prawns.”
He pulled her hand down, wanting to shake it off.
His palm was calloused and slightly rough.
“I’m Tang Wu. I’m 21 this year. I’m older than you.”
He hummed in agreement.
“Call me Sister.”
He finally looked at her.
His eyes were dark.
She smiled charmingly, held his face in her hands and kissed him.
…
When Tang Wu woke up, it was already dawn.
As she opened her eyes, she did not know where she was.
Looking at the dark sky, she then remembered that she came here with a boy she had only met once or twice last night.
Besides…
Tang Wu’s expression was very interesting when she thought about how she had teased the boy last night.
She had only drunk a few cans of beer last night.
He was probably really angered by those two b*tches, Lin Xiurui and Meng Rui.
But even so, why had she bothered that little boy?
Tang Wu poked her head out of the blanket and glanced around the simple apartment.
She did not see the foolish boy.
He was probably afraid of her.
The clothes she had changed out of last night were placed on the bedside table.
They had been washed clean and dried before they were neatly folded and placed there.
She remembered changing her clothes in the bathroom after taking a bath last night. Did that silly boy help her wash them?
Tang Wu could not help but blush.
After washing up and changing her clothes, Tang Wu found that there were porridge and side dishes in the kitchen.
She scooped a bowl of porridge for herself and ate breakfast with the side dishes.
That silly boy really knew how to cook. Having been used to eating delicacies at home, the combination of porridge and side dishes was quite good.
Tang Wu opened her bag and took out a wad of cash from her wallet and put it under her pillow.
Walking out of the alley, she attracted countless eyes. She looked straight ahead, exuding a charming, flamboyant, and beautiful aura.
