“What kind of dumplings do you like, leek and egg or shrimp?” Cheng Lu turns to look at Gu Yin.

Gu Yin was slightly stunned, “Leeks and eggs.”

“Oh, good.” Cheng Lu pushes the cart to the vegetable area and carefully picks up leeks. She points to the egg area not far away and says, “Gu Yin, go buy a jin of eggs.”

“What kind of egg would you like?”

“Whatever.” Gu Yin and Cheng Lu said in unison. Cheng Lu blushed awkwardly.

“You always like to say whatever you want.” Gu Yin shook his head and obediently weighed the egg. He rarely went to the supermarket. Ever since he had a career, he had arranged for someone to take charge of everything. In other words, his time was simply more expensive than money. There would be a nanny to clean his house every few days. He was dressed and living as the company’s private secretary to help him prepare. This life that made everyone envious had already become a routine for Gu Yin.

“Gu Yin, why are you here?” Gu Yin heard an unfamiliar yet familiar female voice. He raised his head and saw Murong An.

Her long, light brown hair, curly eyelashes, a lacrimal mole at the corner of her eyes, a white fur coat and black boots, and a well-dressed man beside her.

“Long time no see, little… Murong’an.” Little An, the most intimate address he had ever used was no longer something he could say. After so many years of meeting, Gu Yin awkwardly stopped picking up eggs. He had many questions to ask, such as where you had been for so many years, why you left without saying goodbye, and why you appeared here again. However, in the end, he could only say “Long time no see”.

“I have just returned to China.” Murong An looked at the man in a tall suit who was picking eggs and almost didn’t recognize him.

Murong An, Gu Yin’s high school classmate, was also in love for the first time.

After the college entrance examination, Murong’an suddenly disappeared and never appeared again. Soon after, Gu Yin’s mother remarried and he followed her to another city. It’s been so many years.

“Going abroad? Then why didn’t you tell me?”

Gu Yin’s face turned green, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. After realizing that he had lost his composure, Gu Yin coughed gently and said, “I mean, leaving without saying goodbye back then made us very confused.”

Yeah, how can I not be confused? Back then, Gu Yin searched the entire city and called almost all of his classmates. However, he did not receive any news about Murong An. To Gu Yin, this was simply a big joke.

“Why don’t you take your time and chat? I’ll wait for you over there.” The man beside him smiled and looked at Gu Yin. Just as Murong An wanted to say something, Gu Yin shook his hand and said, “No, my girlfriend is still waiting for me there.” He looked at Cheng Lu, who was not far away. This little fool was still carefully selecting chives.

“You have a girlfriend?” Murong An asked softly.

Why can you have a boyfriend and I can’t have a girlfriend? Gu Yin’s expression was very ugly. He wanted to explode on the spot, but he still endured it. He had waited for this woman for so many years, but he still had no fate.

“Yes, we’re getting married soon.” Gu Yin nodded, thinking that if Cheng Lu knew that he was going to be angry, she might as well explain it after she said it for a while.

“I wish you happiness.” Murong An turned to look in the direction where Cheng Lu was. The woman lowered her head and could not see her appearance clearly, but her clothes were incomparably tender and tender.

Murong’an held the man’s arm and smiled. Then she nodded to him, “Then we can get together again in the future. I heard from my old classmate that you are starting a company now and you are getting bigger and bigger. How can I say that? Congratulations on realizing your dream.” As if saying goodbye, Murong’an raised her signature smile at him, but her heart was filled with mixed emotions. She heard that Gu Yin had only returned when he was single, but she didn’t expect that she was waiting for the news of her imminent marriage.

“You’re crying.” The man looked at Murong’an and said, “Is this the man?”

“Jiluo, I want to return to the United States.”

“Alright.”

Ji Luo was Murong An’s cousin. The two of them went to study in the United States together. However, she did not tell Gu Yin some details. Back then, she found out about congenital heart disease and had five or six surgeries in the United States. Only this year did she really recover. The days of studying in the United States were accompanied by sickness, and Jiluo had always been by her side.

Ji Luo liked Murong An. She knew very well that there were some things that could not be exposed. Just like this, she could still pretend that she did not know anything and cruelly ask Ji Luo to accompany her back to see her first love.

Gu Yin watched as the two of them left hand in hand. With a clenched fist, an egg shattered like this, and a hand of his egg white flowed out.

“What’s the matter?” Cheng Lu picks up the egg and walks over. Actually, she noticed the movement just now. Looking at Gu Yin’s green face, Cheng Lu is frightened. She immediately takes out a tissue paper from her pocket to help him clean the egg white in his hand.

“Is it because of that woman?”

“You saw it all?”

“I guessed.”

Cheng Lu bites her lips, “It’s always like this on TV.”

Gu Yin propped up a bag again, and his expression returned to its original calm. He slowly said, “Life is like a play.”

“Maybe that man isn’t her boyfriend, just like I’m not your girlfriend.” Cheng Lu smiles awkwardly, “Did you tell her that I’m your girlfriend?”

Gu Yin looks at Cheng Lu in surprise, “You can even guess this?”

“That woman looked at me just now. Everything was written in her eyes. The woman’s sixth sense is very accurate.”

Gu Yin sighed. “Are you mad? I’m just unwilling. Why didn’t she tell me when she left in a hurry? Now that she’s back, don’t you think I’m impolite?”

Cheng Lu thinks for a moment, “Explain it to her. Perhaps, as I said, that person is not her boyfriend. By the way, did she introduce that man as her boyfriend?”

“I don’t think so.”

Cheng Lu rolls her eyes at him and says, “It’s over. Perhaps people really think that I’m your girlfriend. It’s really nice to be angry again.”

When Gu Yin saw Cheng Lu’s dumbfounded expression, he couldn’t help patting her head, “Miss, are you really married? Why does it not look like me at all?”

Cheng Lu pushes his arm and grins, “In ancient times, girls of fourteen or fifteen years old were all married. What does this count as?”

She didn’t want to mention her marriage, which in her eyes was the most wrong thing she had ever done in her life.

Cheng Lu and Gu Yin strolled around the supermarket again. After buying some fruits and vegetables, they went back. At that time, it was already late and snowflakes were falling in the sky.

“Put on your hat, little fool.” Gu Yin helps Cheng Lu put on her hat. In his eyes, Cheng Lu is really a little idiot. Otherwise, how could she marry that kind of person? Just thinking about it made his teeth itch.

“Gu Yin, what about you? Why are you so kind to me?”

Cheng Lu doesn’t understand. Judging from his attitude towards others, she knows that Gu Yin is a cold person. Why should he treat her well?

“I said you look like my little sister. What do you think of this answer?”

As Gu Yin said, one of his younger sisters died of illness when she was a child.

“Very good, but I also said that my mental age is older than yours. After all, I am a married person.” Cheng Lu deliberately emphasized the last few words. It looked like she was reminding Gu Yin, but in fact, she was reminding herself that she was a married woman and that she was from a different world from Gu Yin.

“Marriage can also be divorced.” Gu Yin smiled inadvertently. He was also wondering why he treated Cheng Lu so well.

The surroundings were dark. The street lights on the side were broken. On the way back, Cheng Lu was shivering from the cold. Gu Yin carefully took off his suit coat and draped it over her shoulders. He also took the initiative to hold Cheng Lu’s hand when he crossed the road.

After getting in the car and driving the air conditioner, it becomes much warmer. Gu Yin helps her fasten her seat belt. This man is really gentle. Cheng Lu can’t help but raise the corner of her mouth when she thinks about it. “Who will be your girlfriend in the future is really happy.”

“Do you want to try?” Gu Yin jokingly said, “I’m not that kind of person to everyone. That’s why you’re so lucky.”

On the way back, Cheng Lu thought a lot. If she met Gu Yin before she got married, would they have such a small possibility? After this thought flashed through her mind, she quickly shook her head. Impossible, they were simply people that no cow or horse could match. The so-called fantasy was something that could not be realized at all.

“I don’t like this kind of joke.” Cheng Lu said, “It should be six o’clock now. Put me down. I want to find a hotel in the dark, so the matter of making dumplings has to be postponed until tomorrow.”

Gu Yin didn’t understand what this woman was thinking. Just now, she was talking and laughing, but now, she was even angry at him for joking. After some thought, he said, “Alright, but is it really safe for you to live alone outside? Why don’t I take you home?”

“Go home? I don’t have a home …” Cheng Lu shook her head. “I don’t want to see that man.”

Cheng Lu has always been concerned about Gu Yin giving Jiang Xu a high amount of compensation. “Oh right, I will think of a way to repay you the 300,000 compensation.”

Gu Yin smiled. What did this woman return to her?

“Whatever.” He said indifferently, then dialed the secretary’s number and said, “Book a room in ten minutes. Make it closer.”

“Thank you.” Cheng Lu touches her pocket and finds that she doesn’t have any money on her. Gu Yin naturally paid for the settlement at the supermarket just now, but she can’t let the other party spend any more money on her residence.

“You didn’t bring anything with you when the accident happened. Your husband only brought his ID card here for the hospital operation.”

Cheng Lu nods, her cherry lips curl up slightly, and then says hesitantly, “Then can you lend me some money?”

“How much?”

“Ten thousand. I’ll pay you back as soon as I find a job.” Speaking of which, it was all thanks to that loser man. She was originally a clerk in the Xinhua Bookstore, but she was also eliminated by Jiang Xu’s suspicions for three days.

Every time he returned home, Jiang Xu would take the clothes she was about to change and smell them. Then, he would ask again and again, “Are you hiding something from me and a man?”

There were only a few male colleagues in Xinhua Bookstore. Everyone knew that her husband was far away from her. Occasionally, Jiang Xu would interrogate her when he saw her occasionally.

Later on, colleagues would talk to each other secretly,

“Is Cheng Lu’s husband sick?”

“Why would Cheng Lu marry that kind of person…”

Cheng Lu doesn’t know how to explain. Ever since she got married, Jiang Xu has been like a different person. Especially after being obsessed with gambling for three days and two days, Cheng Lu gives up on him. At the same time, her expectations of marriage have changed.
