"Aunt, if you want to see me, you can come to my house anytime. Our house is so close, you can get there in just two steps. It's such a simple thing." Shu Shichu said with a smile, pretending not to hear Feng Rui's implication.
Feng Rui paused, unable to think of what to say. After all, what he said about his mother wanting to see Shu Shichu was just an excuse. He frowned and finally realized that he seemed to have become much more distant from Shu Shichu recently. Not only had he never met him on the way to and from get off work, but he couldn't even run into him in the company.
Did her affection for him disappear? It was not good news for him to disappear at this time. Feng Rui was irritated. He wondered how these women could be so fickle. Before, their eyes were so bright when they looked at him, but now, when he needed her, she became cold to him. She was so fickle.
But no matter what, he needs Shu Shichu now.
Therefore, Feng Rui had to directly and frankly say to Shu Shichu: "Xiaochu, what I want to tell you is really important. I hope you can wait for me after get off work. Even if you have to go shopping with friends, it won't delay your time."
Since he said so, and Shu Shichu was also curious about the important thing he mentioned, he agreed to wait for him in the parking lot.
After get off work, Shu Shichu went to the parking lot, and Feng Rui also left the company without stopping, for fear of being entangled by Xu Yueyue again.
Xu Yueyue did go to find him as soon as she got off work, but she was a step too late and Feng Rui had already left. She rushed out of the company in a hurry, looked around, and saw Feng Rui's back, so she hurriedly followed him.
"Brother Rui, what exactly do you want to talk to me about?" Shu Shichu asked Feng Rui straight to the point.
Feng Rui looked at the girl in front of him. Her face was calm, and there was no admiration in her eyes when she looked at him, only a hint of curiosity. The excitement and shyness she had when she saw him before were all gone.
"At the beginning..." Feng Rui brewed his emotions for a while, and when he saw that there was no one around, he didn't hesitate and said directly, "I don't know since when, I can no longer simply regard you as my neighbor's sister. I think I like you. Can you be my girlfriend?"
When Shu Shichu heard his confession, he was so shocked that his eyes widened. He couldn't believe his ears. Feng Rui actually confessed to him
In the original world's plot, the original owner gave so much for him but couldn't get the title of his girlfriend. But in this life, Shu Shichu did nothing and even alienated him. Instead, he took the initiative to confess to her. What a drastic change!
Shu Shichu's mind was working quickly, and she carefully recalled the changes between the original world and the present, trying to find out the reason why Feng Rui had such a huge change. The only thing she could think of was Xu Yueyue's recent bold pursuit of him.
In a flash, Shu Shichu understood why Feng Rui confessed to her now. Humph, it turned out that he was looking for a shield to get rid of Xu Yueyue's entanglement! What did he think of himself like this? Was he someone who could be summoned and dismissed at will and used by him
Shu Shichu was very angry. She stared at Feng Rui coldly and said in a cold tone: "No, I don't want to be your girlfriend, and I don't think you like me at all. If you want to use me to get rid of Xu Yueyue, then you are thinking wrongly."
Feng Rui's expression froze. He didn't expect Shu Shichu to be so smart and perceptive that he immediately realized his intention. But of course he couldn't admit it, so he quickly denied it: "Xiaochu, you misunderstood me. Although I am annoyed by Xu Yueyue's entanglement, I have never thought of using you to get rid of her. I confessed to you because I like you..."
Shu Shichu was about to say something when he heard an angry question from not far away: "What are you doing here?"
Shu Shichu turned around and saw that it was Xu Yueyue.
When Xu Yueyue saw Shu Shichu and Feng Rui talking here, she immediately became angry. She knew very well how much Shu Shichu liked Feng Rui in the novel, and she absolutely could not let Shu Shichu get close to the man she wanted to pursue!
"Shu Shichu, Feng Rui is the man I like. You are not trying to snatch him from me, are you?" Xu Yueyue said directly to Shu Shichu with hostility.
"Xu Yueyue! What the hell is wrong with you? I really don't like you! I will never like you in the future. I just hope you won't bother me. I have rejected you so many times. Don't you even understand what people say?" Feng Rui frowned in annoyance when he saw Xu Yueyue. He hated her even more for talking to Shu Shichu as if she was her own thing.
"Feng Rui, no matter how many times you reject me, I will not give up. As long as I persist, one day, you will be moved by me." Although Xu Yueyue was very sad when she heard Feng Rui's ruthless words, she felt that as long as she pursued it hard, she would succeed, so she did not give up.
Shu Shichu looked at the two people in front of her and wanted to laugh, but she held it back.
Xu Yueyue quickly stared at her again and said, "Shu Shichu, although I haven't succeeded in pursuing Feng Rui yet, he is the one I like. You shouldn't want to snatch him from me, right? It would be shameless of you to snatch the one your colleague likes."
She said this on purpose, betting that Shu Shichu was shy and embarrassed to compete with her.
She thought that after she said that, Shu Shichu should be very embarrassed, but when she looked at Shu Shichu, she found that she was not embarrassed at all. There was actually a faint smile on her face, and her eyes were full of the meaning of watching a good show.
"Xu Yueyue, you don't have to worry at all. I have no intention of competing with you for him. Feng Rui is not my type, so you can rest assured." Shu Shichu said.
"Xiao Chu!" Feng Rui became anxious when he heard her words, "Don't say one thing and mean another. If you don't like me, why would you give me gifts on every holiday? And why do you often send me meals and snacks?"
Shu Shichu's face turned cold. These were all done by the original owner. Obviously, Feng Rui had already seen that the original owner liked him, but he never refused. He enjoyed other people's efforts, but pretended to be ignorant and was reluctant to give the slightest return. It was really disgusting.
"I do all this only because I asked you a lot of questions about my studies when I was in school, and you also helped me a lot now that I'm working. I can't repay you with anything else, so I can only do this. Brother Rui, I didn't expect that these actions of mine would cause you to misunderstand. I'm really sorry, but I really don't have any romantic feelings for you. If these actions have caused you to misunderstand, I won't do them again in the future." Shu Shichu said to him hypocritically.
"By the way, I think it's better not to involve other people in the matter between you and Miss Xu. I know that you confessed to me this time just to get rid of Miss Xu's entanglement and you don't really like me, so I forgive you, but don't do it next time, and don't take advantage of other girls. It's not fair to them." Shu Shichu bluntly exposed the true intention of his confession in front of Xu Yueyue.
