heartstrings

Ke Ruochu was so anxious: "Mom, there is something I want to tell you. Actually..."

"Don't you like to eat beef?" Sheng Ruqi cut it off in time, not letting Ke Ruochu say it.

Ke Ruochu turned to look at Sheng Ruqi.

Sheng Ruqi put the boiled beef into her bowl, and said calmly, "Eat more."

Ke Ruochu saw that Sheng Ruqi was deliberately changing the subject.

"What's the matter?" Yuan Luzhi provoked Ke Ruochu and only said half of what she said.

After calming down a little, Ke Ruochu changed his words: "Actually, I want to find someone older than me. I like older ones, who are more mature and stable."

Step by step is better than a direct showdown.

Ke Ruochu also realized that she was impulsive just now, if she said it directly, Yuan Luzhi's reaction would definitely not be optimistic, just because she lied to her would be enough to make her angry.

"You want to find someone older than you. Mom has no problem with that. Mom also hopes that you can find someone who is mature and stable in the future."

Ke Ruochu breathed a sigh of relief.

But after he breathed a sigh of relief, Ke Ruochu heard Yuan Luzhi continue to say, "It's okay if you're under five years old, but if you're over five years old, there's too much difference. There will be a generation gap in all aspects, right?"

When Yuan Luzhi asked "Really", her eyes fell on Sheng Ruqi, as if asking.

Sheng Ruqi smiled and replied: "There is a generation gap between people to some extent. Auntie is from the past, so she must know that two people are together. The most important thing is to get along. I think it is enough for the personality to match."

"I also think it's good to have a compatible personality, and age is not a problem." Ke Ruochu quickly echoed Sheng Ruqi and seized every opportunity.

Yuan Luzhi couldn't say anything to Sheng Ruqi, but she was able to grab Ke Ruochu and say, "Why is age not a problem? You listen to your mother, don't think about it when you are over five years old, you know? I won't agree."

Yuan Luzhi's "I will not agree" made both Ke Ruochu and Sheng Ruqi silent.

Before confessing, such a basin of cold water came first.

For a moment, Ke Ruochu bit his lips, and said without any momentum: "This is my own business, I decide for myself."

"Which one of your matters is not decided by me for you, isn't it all for your own good?" Yuan Luzhi blurted out, after all, there were outsiders present, and she didn't want the atmosphere to be too tense, "If I don't argue with you now, it's like being ignorant. "

Dinner was not a pleasant one.

After dinner, wandering around the streets of Shinjuku to eliminate food, the crowds are bustling, very lively.Chinese tourists can be seen everywhere, and the number of people traveling during the Spring Festival seems to be increasing every year.

The neon lights are bright and the night scene is beautiful, but Ke Ruochu and Sheng Ruqi are not in the mood to appreciate it.

Ke Ruochu looked at Sheng Ruqi from time to time, and felt that she talked less tonight than usual.

What a terrible trip.

When crossing the road, Ke Ruochu took the opportunity to hold Sheng Ruqi's arm and did not let go.

After nine o'clock, return to the hotel to rest.

The rooms arranged by the travel agency were all on the same floor, standard double rooms, but Sheng Ruqi told her in advance that she wanted a separate room.

Ke Ruochu and Yuan Luzhi's rooms are arranged in 2209, and Sheng Ruqi's room is in 2215, not too far apart.

When walking to the door of Room 2209.

Yuan Luzhi said to Sheng Ruqi and Song Xiao: "You all rest early, see you tomorrow."

Ke Ruochu looked at Sheng Ruqi, but did not follow Yuan Luzhi into the house for a long time.

Sheng Ruqi also stood there for a while, seeing Ke Ruochu's hesitant appearance, she whispered: "Go in and rest early."

"……Um."

The door is closed.

For a long time, Ke Ruochu was restless.Thinking about what her mother said tonight, how would Sheng Ruqi feel when she heard it...

The knock on the door interrupted Ke Ruochu's thoughts.

Yuan Luzhi opened the door.

It was Song Xiao standing at the door, "Auntie, I want to say a few words to Ruochu."

Yuan Luzhi wished that the two of them could interact more, "Okay."

In the corridor, the two stood.

Say something softly.

"I still think it's better to explain it to you. Didn't Auntie tell you that she came to play with me?"

Ke Ruochu admitted: "Yes."

"Maybe my dad told my aunt that I was going to Japan to play, so my aunt asked me if I could come together, and there happened to be a support, so I agreed."

Her mother said so, can people not agree?Ke Ruochu was full of apologies, "I'm sorry to trouble you this time."

"It's okay, it's fun to play together. I think you seem to have misunderstood today, and I'm afraid you will have a burden when you come out to play. Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who stalks you." Song Xiao smiled, patted his head, and turned around Then he said, "Although my father and mother want us to be together, and I feel very sad that you don't give me a chance, but this kind of thing can't be forced. I have already told my father and told him not to Arrange it later. Can you talk to your aunt too?"

Ke Ruochu was about to die of embarrassment, "I'll talk to my mother, I'm really sorry."

Song Xiao also said: "I'm not sorry, I troubled you before. You don't have to be burdened when you see me in the future, it's okay to be friends."

"Thank you."

A few minutes later, Ke Ruochu returned to the room.

Yuan Luzhi greeted her, "What did he tell you?"

"He asked me to tell you, stop trying to match us up. People find it annoying..." Ke Ruochu felt annoyed thinking about what happened today: "Why do you have to come with him without telling me."

Yuan Luzhi was silent, her face darkened, and it took her a while to read: "If you don't grasp a good opportunity, you will regret it later."

"If," Ke Ruochu hesitated, "if I find a better one."

Yuan Luzhi rolled her eyes at Ke Ruochu, "A better person can fall in love with you?"

Ke Ruochu: "..."

But my girlfriend is really excellent, Ke Ruochu complained.

"Okay, take a shower and go to bed early, and get up early tomorrow." Yuan Luzhi said after arranging her clothes.

Thinking of Sheng Ruqi...

"I'm not going to sleep here," Ke Ruochu pulled up his suitcase, and said to Yuan Luzhi, "I'm going to sleep in my sister's room."

Yuan Luzhi raised her head, thinking that Ke Ruochu was still sulking at herself because of Song Xiao's matter, "Alright, why are you bothering others?"

"She lives alone, she seems a little uncomfortable today, I'd better go to accompany her. Go to bed early." Ke Ruochu didn't discuss it with Yuan Luzhi, and after speaking, hurriedly dragged the suitcase and left.

"Hey..." Yuan Luzhi was helpless with her pajamas in her hand.

Sheng Ruqi sat on the sofa by the floor-to-ceiling windows, with her head tilted, watching the night scene while smoking, wisps of smoke slowly filtered out from between her nose and lips, and then disappeared without a trace.

In fact, she had thought about it more than once, would it be possible to fall in love with a little girl who is not yet completely independent?But when she decided to be with Ke Ruochu, she really decided on this girl.

The cigarette smoked a third.

There was a knock on the door.

Sheng Ruqi stubbed out the cigarette in the ashtray and got up from the sofa.

The door opened, and Sheng Ruqi saw Ke Ruochu standing straight at the door with a heavy black suitcase beside her.

"What's this for?" Sheng Ruqi looked at the suitcase, then at Ke Ruochu, and asked knowingly.

"I want to sleep in a room with you." To be precise, in a bed.

Sheng Ruqi's tone softened, "Don't you need to accompany your mother?"

Ke Ruochu smiled and shook his head, "I want to accompany you."

"Not coming in yet." Sheng Ruqi helped Ke Ruochu pull the suitcase into the room. Although her words were lukewarm, her depressed mood was better. She never thought that Ke Ruochu would come to accompany her tonight.

With a soft sound, the door was closed.

As soon as he entered the room, Ke Ruochu smelled smoke, "You smoke."

Sheng Ruqi walked to the window, pushed it open, and ventilated the smell.

Ke Ruochu saw two cigarette butts in the ashtray on the coffee table.She knew that Sheng Ruqi would only smoke when she was stressed or in a bad mood.

And today, apparently because of the latter.

"Song Xiao is the blind date my mother introduced to me before. I have clearly rejected it before. I didn't know that he would be with me this time. My mother kept it from me. If I knew, I would definitely not come."

The first thing Ke Ruochu did was to explain clearly to Sheng Ruqi, lest she misunderstand something.

"Your mother wants you to be with him."

"That's what she meant, I..."

"Don't you listen to her in everything?!" Sheng Ruqi said this with a heavy tone. She was indeed in a bad mood tonight, not a good feeling, especially when Ke Ruochu was completely uncertain in front of her mother.

Ke Ruochu was stunned, because she had never seen Sheng Ruqi like this, as if she was about to explode.

"No." Ke Ruochu frowned tightly, and was almost dying of anxiety at the moment: "Don't take her words to heart, don't think too much about it!"

"Okay." Sheng Ruqi also knew that her tone was a bit harsh. She just smoked a cigarette and felt a bit heavy on her body. She whispered: "I'll take a bath first."

Ke Ruochu couldn't smell cigarettes better than most people, so after being together, Sheng Ruqi never smoked in front of Ke Ruochu, and even every time she met Ke Ruochu, she would not smoke in front of Ke Ruochu, for fear of smelling cigarettes on her body.

Ke Ruochu stared at Sheng Ruqi's back, also feeling uncomfortable, saying that she was telling her not to think too much, how could she not care.

The night is getting darker.

When Ke Ruochu came out of the shower, the room was quiet. She saw Sheng Ruqi lying on the side of the bed, and wondered if she had fallen asleep.

Ke Ruochu lightly lifted the quilt, climbed into the bed, lay down next to Sheng Ruqi, hugged her from behind little by little, and said softly, "I'm sorry, I made you unhappy again today."

Gentle and soft apology, as if talking to herself, Sheng Ruqi heard it, couldn't help but turned around, and looked at Ke Ruochu.

Seeing that Sheng Ruqi was still asleep, Ke Ruochu's voice became louder, "I have something to tell you."

"What?" Sheng Ruqi asked.

Ke Ruochu thought for a moment, then stared into Sheng Ruqi's eyes, "I told you before that I am a very useless and useless person. Everything was arranged by my mother since I was a child. I do things I don't like, and there is nothing to worry about every day. Happy. But after meeting you, it’s different. You tell me not to do things you don’t like. You have to be selfish to be happy. I remember it. You taught me to do what you want , don’t always wrong yourself. So as long as I’m with you, I’m happy... Being with you is the first decision I made on my own initiative, and I want to make my own decisions in my own life in the future. "

As he spoke, he couldn't help but blushed again.

When taking a bath, Ke Ruochu kept thinking about this, she was afraid that Sheng Ruqi would become disgusted with her, and then, don't want her.

Sheng Ruqi occupies a very important position in her heart.

Either don't say anything, or say a lot.Every time she heard Ke Ruochu speak her mind like this, Sheng Ruqi was so moved that her nose hurt, thinking how could there be such a stupid person.

"Don't pay attention to my mother's words. I know you must feel uncomfortable. I'm sorry. If you scold me to feel better, you can scold me."

There are also those who take the initiative to scold, "Fool... I am with you, not with your mother. I don't care what she says, I only care about your thoughts."

"I won't coax you anymore, you trust me." Ke Ruochu said earnestly.

Sheng Ruqi smiled: "Well, I believe you."

Ke Ruochu was relieved at this moment, she almost got into an argument just now, which startled her.

"Sister," Ke Ruochu held Sheng Ruqi's hand tightly for a long time, choking slightly, "Thank you for liking me who is so useless."

Ke Ruochu kept these words in his heart.

She is a person with low self-esteem to the bone. She didn't dare to have her own ideas before, and she couldn't even find her own advantages. She hated herself.

As her mother said, can a good person like her?She thought it was a miracle that Sheng Ruqi liked her and agreed to be her girlfriend.

The humble tone makes people feel distressed.

"Stupid, don't ever say that you are useless." Sheng Ruqi put her arms around Ke Ruochu, and comforted her softly, "How can such a beautiful and lovely girl be useless? She is more serious about her work than anyone else, gentle and caring, and especially loving. People. I feel very happy to be your girlfriend. In my sister's heart, you are the best in the world, you know?"

The gentlest encouragement I've ever heard.

"Yeah." Ke Ruochu laughed with tears in his eyes. Originally, he wanted to make her happy, but now it was her who comforted him.

"Don't cry at every turn in the future."

Ke Ruochu tried hard to hold back tears, thinking that Sheng Ruqi thought she was childish.

Sheng Ruqi: "My heart hurts from crying..."

Ke Ruochu stared at Sheng Ruqi with red eyes, and suddenly said in a daze: "Sister is the best wife in the world."

Sheng Ruqi was so cute when Ke Ruochu said this, she deliberately asked back, "The skin is getting thicker and thicker, who is your wife?"

Ke Ruochu approached and kissed Sheng Ruqi's lips, closed his eyes and sucked a few times, then held her cheek, "Sheng Ruqi is my wife."
