Chapter 422: Chapter 423 Another Misunderstanding
“You didn’t lie? Then why do your parents think that I am a rich person?” Before Shu Tong finished speaking, I interrupted, “Also, now your parents are obviously wondering whether the relationship between us is really fake or not. Don’t tell me that you didn’t see it!”
“I…” Shu Tong was speechless. She stomped her feet lightly and said to me in an annoyed tone, “So what if I can see it?! Do you think I want to be misunderstood by them?! I told them that you are Liusu’s colleague, your dad is a teacher, and your mother runs a fast-food restaurant. I also told them that your monthly salary is the same as Liusu, but they don’t believe it at all! They even asked me if you were really just an ordinary white-collar worker, and why do you have a secretary? Moreover, how can you afford BMW and Rolls Royce?
“The clothes you bought for them cost thousands of Chinese yuan, and the hotel rooms they are living in now are also paid for by you, and they cost more than 6,000 yuan a day. Is this the consumption level of the working class?! Also, who would use a tiger whip which is worth more than one million to please a small employee? If you were really a commoner, would Liu Xiaosheng, Zhang Mingjie, Guo Xiang, and that Miss Li take you seriously? Chu Nan, not just me, if I asked you the same questions, would you be able to answer them?!”
I was at a loss for words, “You… You can tell your parents that these are all arranged by Min Rou on her own initiative…”
“Then what does Min Rou do? Why does she want to help us?” Shu Tong interrupted me.
“She is… She is working for the Third Lady…”
“What does the Third Lady do, and why does she want to help us?”
“The Third Lady is… How the hell do I know? !” I was so frustrated by her questions that I even cursed. If it was really such a way of asking questions, I really would not be able to explain this clearly.
“See? You also can’t explain it clearly. So what do you expect me to do?” Shu Tong’s eyes were slightly red, and she stared at me with a grievance, “Anyway, I didn’t lie to my parents. I told them everything, but they don’t believe me, so what can I do?”
“You told them everything?” I was dazed, “Including my relationship with Liusu..”
“Mhm,” Shu Tong’s face flushed, “But they still didn’t believe me. They think that I’m lying. They said that if there was really nothing going on between us, why would you spend so much money to please the family of a woman who is not related to you? They also said that you definitely… have feelings for me… We may not be officially going out, but we must be very close. That was the reason why you tried so hard to please them…”
Sure enough, Father Shu was hostile to me because Shu Tong had told him about the relationship between me and Liusu. He may not completely believe it, but he also didn’t disbelieve it entirely. What was more important was that, like Mother Shu, he also thought that I had feelings for Shu Tong…
He was also a man, so he understood the nature of men’s fickleness. His daughter was both dumb and beautiful. She who was careless was indeed easy to become the prey of most men. The better I treat them, the more they would think that I had ulterior motives…
Shu Tong turned her slightly flushed face away, stopped looking at me, and whispered in a slightly shy voice, “I also don’t understand what you are thinking these days. Leaving Min Rou’s material help aside, your attentive attitude towards my grandma and my parents even made me blush. When my grandma wanted to go to the toilet, you would help her to get to the bathroom, and then wait outside. My mother said that you’ve added 500 yuan credit to her phone, and called her at least three times a day, asking if she needs anything. It was so caring that it was many times better than me, their own daughter…
“Liusu said that you are about to be promoted, right? But since my family came to Bei Tian city, you only went back to the company yesterday. Even if I am a fool, I can still see that you spent all your energy on my family’s visit. You are just being forced to act as my boyfriend, is it really necessary for you to do this for an irrelevant woman like me?”
As people often say: “Spectators tend to see the situation more clearly than those who are involved.” Both Liusu and I didn’t seem to realize it. But I didn’t expect that Shu Tong this dumb woman would notice it. I didn’t know how to respond to her doubt. I couldn’t just tell her the reason why I was so attentive was that her grandma would not have many days left to live, right?
Shu Tong was dumb, but she was not a fool, and so was I. How could I not tell why this embarrassed woman was suspicious of me?
“How can you be an irrelevant woman? You are Liusu’s cousin…”
“Do you really not know about our family situation?” Shu Tong smiled bitterly, “Our families are only distant relatives. In fact, to my mother, Liusu is just an outsider who is currently living with me. She doesn’t believe that Liusu would agree to let her boyfriend act as my boyfriend, and she doesn’t believe that Liusu would support you to spend so much time and money on a stranger like me even more…”
Shu Tong’s voice became lower and lower; it had a trace of self-deprecating sadness in her words. There was a crystal teardrop in the corner of her eye, but it was held back by her drooping eyelid, stubbornly refusing to let it fall. Her pitiful appearance shocked me a little. Only now did I realize that what I said was not very appropriate. It was indeed very hurtful.
“Er… Don’t say that,” I tried to comfort her, “Even if you are not Liusu’s close relative, but you are still my friend, so I still have a reason to help you…”
Shu Tong obviously didn’t believe what I said. Not fearing that I would laugh at her, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and murmured, “You don’t need to lie to me. When I first begged you, you were still reluctant to help me. I know that I am nothing to you. At best, I’m just your little sister’s teacher. I am a foolish woman who loves to deceive others and is often deceived by others…”
Not bad, at least she was very clear about her image in the eyes of others… I secretly shook my head and regretted that I had agreed to their request. If I had refused to help, probably the Third Lady would not send Min Rou to cause trouble to me. And if I didn’t know about Grandma Shu’s health condition, I would not feel so tight-chested…
Thinking of Grandma Shu’s condition, I couldn’t help but stretch out my hand to stroke Shu Tong’s head. She was lying to her family, but she didn’t know that her family was also doing the same thing to her. Although this woman did not know it yet, she would bear more self-blame and guilt than me in the future. With her simple personality, I really didn’t know if she could bear it, “It doesn’t matter if you believe it or not. I am willing to help you, and I will be willing to bear all the consequences with you.”
Shu Tong was stunned for a few seconds after hearing what I said. When she finally reacted, she lifted her leg and stepped on my feet fiercely. “You sweet-talking rascal! I know you have ulterior motives! You already have my cousin, but you still want to go after me! Don’t even think about it. I won’t be fooled by you easily!”
Seeing her blushing and running away hurriedly, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
What I meant was to bear the consequence of deceiving an old woman, and what she would have to bear was the selfless love of her grandma. But clearly, she had misunderstood what I meant.
