【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

When Su Miaoyu led Jia Baoyu back to the teahouse, Wu Qing was sitting by the window. Seeing Jia Baoyu coming, she stood up and said to him, "Why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Jia Baoyu was distracted for a moment. He hadn't seen Wu Qing for more than a month, and they had no contact since the exam.

"How did you come?"

"Didn't you invite me here?"

"I asked you out?" Jia Baoyu was slightly stunned. Today was too chaotic, but he really couldn't remember when he had made an appointment with Wu Qing. Even if he had made an appointment with her, he would not have made an appointment with Su Miaoyu.

Su Miaoyu asked Wu Qing openly what she wanted to drink, and then arranged for Jia Baoyu to entertain his friends first.

She called Lin Pin'er. It was Shi Xiangyun who called her just now to ask her to rescue Lin Pin'er. They were busy tonight. After rescuing Lin Pin'er, they had to comfort Wu Qing.

Jia Baoyu just sat there in a daze, not saying a word. Wu Qing saw him like this, and then looked at the situation between Su Miaoyu and him, and she understood the general situation.

She hated Jia Baoyu the most for being like this. He would be at a loss as to what to do when something happened, and now he didn't say a word.

"I'm leaving." Wu Qing stood up and went to the bar to pay the bill.

When she walked out of the yard, Lin Pin'er was walking towards her from a distance, and gave her a big hug as soon as she got close.

Wu Qing couldn't help crying out loud.

"Okay, stop crying. Come sit with me!" Lin Pin'er pulled Wu Qing towards her yard.

After returning to Lin Pin'er's residence, she hurriedly asked Zijuan to pour tea. After taking a sip of the hot tea, Wu Qing felt the warmth. In the hot summer, her hands were always cold.

"Who asked you to meet Baoyu?"

Wu Qing took out her cell phone and showed it to Lin Pin'er. It was a text message, and the number sent was Jia Baoyu's phone number.

"It was Baoyu who asked me to go, and he said he had something important to discuss with me. I called the number, but no one answered.

"Don't you have Baoyu's phone number saved?" Shi Xiangyun asked.

"We had an argument once before, and I got angry so I deleted all his contact information."

"This phone number cannot prove that it is Baoyu. Now you can set up a network number and change the IP."

Lin Pin'er was surprised: "There is such a thing? I didn't know that. But who would do such a thing? Why did you ask her out?"

Shi Xiangyun snorted lightly: "No need to guess, it must be Xue Baochai. She is the one who has the most thoughts. She saw that we were doing well and started to stir up trouble!"

Lin Pin'er began to think about what happened tonight and gradually sorted out the clues.

"But shouldn't she have asked me first, or talked to me about it? Why did she do all this?"

Shi Xiangyun spoke again: "She came here last night to look for you. But I persuaded her to leave. I was angry at her for wanting to challenge us, so maybe my attitude was not good, and she held a grudge against me."

Lin Pin'er was even more confused.

"Your activities should be normal and healthy competition. Even if she wants to do something, why is she teasing me and Wu Qing?"

"Why? How do I know why? She spends the whole day in this house investigating other people's faults. She must have heard something, and she does many things only for her own benefit, so she doesn't think about why. She wants to stir up conflicts among us first so that she can take advantage of the chaos."

After hearing this, Wu Qing cried even harder.

"What are you thinking? Don't you dislike Baoyu? Why are you crying now? Didn't you give up on him first?" Shi Xiangyun spoke quickly and didn't intend her words to hurt others.

Lin Pin'er quickly gave Shi Xiangyun a look, then turned to coax Wu Qing and handed her a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

"It's not that I don't like him, he treats me very well. I just hate that he is irresponsible and acts like this when things happen. Plus, I have low self-esteem and feel that I am not worthy of him, so we can't be together in the future."

"It's best if you can think this way. Don't think what I said is unpleasant. I treat you as a friend. I will dig out your love brain first, and then you won't be in pain." After saying this, Shi Xiangyun thought for a long time and then spoke again:

"Speaking of Xue Baochai, she only knows how to take advantage of people's hearts. When I was little, I was so happy to see her that I regarded her as my confidant. But she took advantage of Tanchun's birthday to spread a lot of gossip to me, saying how the elders were partial to me and how I was not welcomed in this family. I believed her and gradually distanced myself from the elders, while she became closer to them. I only discovered the meaning later."

"But did I provoke her? I have no connection with her at all." Wu Qing said while crying.

Shi Xiangyun said angrily, "Of course she didn't. Maybe she saw that Baoyu cares about you, or she wants to use you to destroy the relationship between Baoyu and Miaoyu. Or maybe she hopes that everything will be in chaos here, and she will be happy if everyone just has a falling out tonight."

At this moment, Lin Pin'er understood everything. Although Shi Xiangyun's quick words were unpleasant to the ear, she made her point very clear.

"Wu Qing, I think Yun'er is right. No matter who that person is or what he thinks, she wants to make things chaotic for her. But we don't want to do that. We have to unite as one. That way, she won't have any tricks, right?"

Wu Qing gradually stopped crying after hearing what Lin Pin'er said. It was a long time before she said goodbye and went back.

Lin Pin'er accompanied her to the garden gate and watched her get into the car before returning.

Before he reached the gate of the yard, he saw Shi Xiangyun running out in a hurry.

"What's going on now?" Lin Pin'er's nerves were tense again.

"Wei Ruolan wants to see me. He is waiting at the gate of the garden now."

"What is he going to do? Is this also Xue Baochai's instigation? Do you want me to accompany you?" Lin Pin'er was like a kitten with its fur standing on end at this moment.

Shi Xiangyun was of course happy to see Lin Pin'er so worried about her, and she comforted her: "This should not be done by Xue Baochai, you can go back, you must be tired from running back and forth. I want to see what he can say to me."

"Take the phone and call me if anything happens. If he does something wrong, there are security guards at the door, so don't go to unsafe places with him." Pin'er warned.

"Don't worry, he doesn't dare."

Lin Pin'er dragged her tired body back. She might have overdrawn her physical and mental strength just now. Now she really felt tired and relaxed.

This evening was really worrying.

*

Shi Xiangyun had already thought about how to face Wei Ruolan again. She hated him, and if she had met him last year, she would have mocked him with words.

But so much time has passed that she has forgotten how to hate him. The two of them walked slowly along the road, and Wei Ruolan still didn't know what to say.

Shi Xiangyun saw a convenience store in the distance and pointed at it and said, "Go buy a few cans of beer. I can't go to the bar to drink at will now, but if there is no alcohol, you probably can't say what's in your heart."

Wei Ruolan went in obediently and bought a few cans of beer. Shi Xiangyun pulled him to sit on the curb, and they both pulled the rings on the beer cans.

"cheers."

"cheers."

"Tell me what you want from me."

"Can't I come to you if nothing happens?"

"It's okay, you won't look for me."

"How have you been lately?" Wei Ruolan asked this question after a long time.

"I'm fine, how about you?" Shi Xiangyun was still as free and easy as ever.

"All good." Wei Ruolan emphasized these two words, sighed, and continued:

"Stella is a great name. Whenever I see something sparkling, I will think of you. Just like the stars in the sky."

"Well, you should like me. Right?" It was still the familiar formula, Yun-style straightforward.

"I like it." Wei Ruolan was about to say something else, but was interrupted by Shi Xiangyun.

"That's good that you like me. With your words, I can feel relieved. Originally, I came to your side just for my own wish. Now that you have given me this wish, we should all move forward and not look back. It's not worth it!" After saying this, Shi Xiangyun said goodbye to Wei Ruolan. This time it was a real farewell. Fortunately, he said goodbye to her properly in this life.

The neatly arranged street lights illuminate the way home, and when I look up, I can see a few naughty stars. This is a brand new world, and everything has begun to develop along a different track. I just hope that there will be no disappointment in this life, so I am extra careful with every step I take.
