Does Xu Ruoxing have a girlfriend

It was the middle of summer, and Su Yi was sitting in the car. Her fingertips were actually getting cold, and a chill ran through her heart. She tensed her body, and the screen of her cell phone went dark, leaving only her confused look.

Why did she say no

She had asked Xu Ruoxing before, and she said no, she didn't care whether someone had an ex-girlfriend, but why did she lie to her? Xu Ruoxing's not being close to her, is it related to his ex-girlfriend

Su Yi wanted to ask him in person, but her voice was stuck in her throat and she couldn't make a sound. How could she ask? Xu Ruoxing, you lied to me. You have a girlfriend.

What answer do you want

Yes, I lied to you.

Su Yi's heart was choking, and her breathing was a little difficult. She opened the car window, and Xu Ruoxing tilted her head to look at her. Her hair blocked Su Yi's profile, so she couldn't see her expression clearly. Xu Ruoxing asked: "What's wrong?"

Su Yi came back to his senses and looked at her without blinking: "Hmm?"

Xu Ruoxing said: "I turned off the air conditioner in the car?"

Su Yi nodded: "Well, turn it off." She said: "It's a bit cold."

Xu Ruoxing turned off the air conditioner and drove. He couldn't pay attention to Su Yi. Su Yi tilted her head to look out the window. She pinched the seat belt with her fingers. She pinched it hard until her joints turned white. She didn't come back to her senses. The whole world was filled with the words sent by Zhao Yu: [Xu Ruoxing had a girlfriend in high school.]

She lowered her eyes, thinking of the time when she called Su Changhe and the crisp voice of a woman on the other end of the line: "Changhe, looking for you."

She recalled a time when she went to Su Changhe's house and saw a disheveled woman with Su Changhe.

Su Yi tried her best to keep her composure, but those fragmented memories and images came rushing towards her without warning. Su Yi's body was as tight as a string. The car turned a corner, and Su Yi said, "Stop, stop for a minute."

Xu Ruoxing pulled over and parked the car.

Su Yi opened the door and rushed out before the car stopped. She stood by the tree and retched. She hadn't eaten much for lunch and couldn't vomit anything. Xu Ruoxing followed her, patted her on the back and asked her: "What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable? I'll take you to the hospital?"

"It's okay." Su Yi wiped the corner of her mouth with a tissue, looked at Xu Ruoxing, with a thousand words in her eyes, and finally said: "I feel a little carsick, maybe the temperature is too high today."

Xu Ruoxing said: "Lie down in the back for a while."

Su Yi nodded: "Okay."

After she got in the car, she lay down on the back seat. Xu Ruoxing wanted to take a look at her before driving away, so he took down the headrest of the passenger seat and put it under Su Yi's head to make her more comfortable. Su Yi turned over and faced her back to Xu Ruoxing. Xu Ruoxing could not see Su Yi's face at all in the rearview mirror.

When they arrived at the airport, Xu Ruoxing looked at Su Yi and saw that she was motionless. She wondered if she had fallen asleep. She sent a message to Li Chen to inform her that she had arrived. When Li Chen got off the plane and saw Xu Ruoxing's car, he was about to say hello, but Xu Ruoxing got out of the car and said to her assistant, "Send her back first."

Li Chen was puzzled: "Hey, no, why not together?"

Xu Ruoxing said: "There is no room for people to sit in the back."

Li Chen looked over her shoulder at the back seat, smiled, and said to the assistant: "Take me to my apartment first, and Mr. Xu and I will go back to the company."

The assistant nodded.

Xu Ruoxing took Li Chen into the car.

Li Chen had been holding back for a week before he could tell Xu Ruoxing what he had been saying, and she scolded him: "Keep your voice down."
