Chapter 82 She couldn't handle one, and now another one is coming?
"It seems you've completely let go of men?" Li Suian opened a bottle of cola and handed it to Wen Shuyi. "So, modern women can totally have children without fathers, even if they're born out of thin air, right?"
"Of course, you can live without a man, but you must have a child." Wen Shuyi took the cola and took a big gulp. "Men, apart from being able to control women, seem to... not be very useful."
"You moved out of Sheng Tingwang's place, it's not because... you think he's bad luck for you, is it?" Li Suian's lips twitched.
Wen Shuyi nodded seriously, "Of course! Every time I've gotten into trouble, it's because of him. He's really my nemesis. If I continue living with him, I'll really kick the bucket."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true."
Li Suian didn't believe it. "You really don't love Sheng Tingwang anymore?"
Wen Shuyi thought about it.
She still loved him.
But it's not that she can't live without him, "I don't know how to say it."
"Tell me your most honest thoughts."
"Maybe it's because he didn't give me the courage to stay with him and spend my whole life with him." Wen Shuyi didn't know if Li Suian could understand. "It's just... Sheng Tingwang is still that good-looking and rich man. He wants to marry me, but I just don't want to marry him."
Li Suian rested her chin on her hand, seemingly understanding but not quite. "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of being abandoned? Or are you afraid you can't handle him? Explain it more clearly."
"Maybe there are some wounds that haven't healed yet, or maybe I'm too vengeful, or maybe... I've lost my desire for marriage. I'm more focused on my own feelings. In short... I don't want to get married right now, no matter who the man is."
Li Suian nodded.
She then thought of her miserable cousin, Li Jiangyan.
"So, if you don't choose Sheng Tingwang, you won't choose Li Jiangyan either, right?"
Wen Shuyi smiled and said, "Yes."
"If you meet another man who loves you very much in your life, will he be able to defeat Sheng Tingwang?"
Wen Shuyi rolled her eyes and thought for a moment, "It's hard to say, it depends on when this man appears."
"If Sheng Tingwang knew about this, wouldn't he be furious?" Li Suian suddenly felt that Sheng Tingwang was quite pitiful. "Shuyi, are you serious or joking?"
Wen Shu also shook his head.
She doesn't know either.
Getting married really is a matter of a momentary impulse.
She and Sheng Tingwang had no emotional foundation.
He ran away when she most wanted to marry him.
She was also past the age of dating and romance.
For now... she just wants to live a good life on her own.
……
Wen Shuyi quickly got into work mode.
The colleagues in the studio are still the same people.
People weren't very interested in the gossip surrounding her long absence.
Psychologically, I feel more relaxed than ever before.
Every day is just work, eating, and sleeping – a monotonous routine.
On weekends, she would pick up Xiaoduo and take her back to her rented apartment.
The little guy is quite cheerful and lively as long as he's not in front of Sheng Tingwang.
She would knead dough, make noodles, and make steamed buns with her son.
Enjoying a weekend with your child.
Sheng Tingwang never came.
After leaving the house on Yangguan Avenue, she seemed to have less contact with him.
I heard he went abroad on a business trip.
I heard it's been quite a while.
Grandma Zhou, our neighbor, is a kind-hearted person.
Seeing that Wen Shuyi was always alone and had a child with her, he would often lend her a hand.
Recently, she's even been trying to introduce her to her grandson.
Startled, Wen Shuyi quickly refused, "Grandma Zhou, this is not good. He is unmarried, and I have a child. We are not a good match."
"I think it's a good idea. This kid has mentioned to me a few times in secret that he wants to get to know you. Let's do it today."
Grandma Zhou took Wen Shuyi's hand and walked towards her home.
Grandma Zhou's house is a large apartment.
It's more than twice the size of the apartment she rents.
The room was filled with mahogany furniture, which looked quite luxurious.
"He Zheng, Xiao Wen is here. Don't be shy, come out quickly."
Soon, a young man walked out of one of the rooms.
He has a very handsome appearance, with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
Tall and robust.
She is about the same age as Wen Shuyi, and seems to be easily shy, appearing somewhat awkward.
"Grandma, what's wrong...?"
"You keep telling me that Wen is beautiful, reliable, and capable, and that if she didn't have a boyfriend, you'd like to try dating her?"
These words made both Wen Shuyi and Zhou Hezheng feel awkward.
"grandmother……"
"Xiao Wen, please sit down." Grandma Zhou led Wen Shuyi to the living room and said to Zhou Hezheng, "Don't just stand there like an idiot, pour Xiao Wen a glass of juice."
"oh oh."
Zhou He turned to get busy.
Wen Shuyi was extremely embarrassed. "Grandma Zhou, I have something to do in a little while..."
"It won't take too long. You can chat with He Zheng. He's my grandson. He's been serving in the army. It's rare for him to come back on leave. Let's get to know each other. Maybe we'll develop feelings for each other."
Wen Shuyi smiled awkwardly, looking even worse than if she were crying.
How could they possibly develop feelings for each other?
The family photo on the wall doesn't include a single person in casual clothes.
This has elevated the family's position to a daunting level.
Even someone like Sheng Tingwang, who had worn a uniform before, couldn't be handled by her.
She's not good enough for a family like that.
"Grandma Zhou, I appreciate your kindness, but look at my circumstances, I'm really not good enough for you, so let's just forget about it."
Wen Shu also got up to leave.
Looking up, she saw Zhou He walking over with a glass of juice. "Miss Wen, it's rare for you to come over. Please sit down."
"Exactly." Grandma Zhou pressed Wen Shuyi down again. "Little Wen, is there something dirty in our house? Why are you so restless? Don't be so reserved, just make yourself at home."
Wen Shuyi: ...
Zhou He handed the juice to Wen Shuyi, "We only have oranges left at home. I don't know if you like them."
"Thank you."
Grandma Zhou stood up, winked at her grandson, and said, "Have a good chat with Xiao Wen."
In the large living room.
The emptiness was so profound it disturbed my peace of mind.
Wen Shuyi forced a smile and said awkwardly, "Grandma Zhou probably doesn't fully understand my situation. I have a baby, and I'm not young anymore. I have no parents, and I have a sick younger brother..."
"I don't mind," Zhou Hezheng answered hastily, as if afraid of being rejected. "I can accept all your conditions."
Wen Shuyi: ...This guy must have gone crazy from being a soldier.
"You, you're so eligible, and your family's circumstances are...so good, why would you choose a woman like me?"
She doesn't understand.
She admitted that she was somewhat attractive.
But her looks are utterly insignificant compared to that of a family like this.
"Mr. Zhou, really, maybe you're just pitying me, that it's not easy raising a child alone. But it's not like that. He has a father, and his father is very wealthy. I also have a job. It's really not pitiful. I know you're a good person, but really..."
There's no need to talk about feelings.
Zhou He listened intently to Wen Shuyi, who finished speaking incoherently, and nodded. "I'm not pitying you. I've never liked any girl since I was a child. My feelings for you are actually... love at first sight."
