48. Chapter 48(1/2)
"Ye Ruling, you didn't say anything wrong. It's just that I just assumed that Chen Kerui didn't lie and what she told was the truth. What should you do?"
"What should I do?" she asked in confusion.
What should I do? In this dark night, the dazzling car lights shine through Ye Ruling's eyes, making it difficult for her to see the way forward.
What should I do? Ye Ruling asked herself over and over again.
Ye Ruling wandered aimlessly on the street. She saw a small shop selling canned beer, so she bought several cans and asked Wen Ranyue to drink some with her. Then she said nothing. Along the way, she walked
She was so stunned that she actually tried to run through the red light, but Wen Ranyue pulled her back. Although Wen Ranyue was worried, she stayed with her all the way without saying anything else, until the phone in Ye Ruling's bag screamed again and again, Ye Ruling
Lingcai woke up with a start, took out his cell phone and saw that it was the Lin family's home number.
"Ru Ling, are you still working overtime?" It was Mother Lin.
She looked at her watch and saw that it was almost seven o'clock in the evening.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I'll be back soon." Ye Ruling apologized repeatedly to the phone.
"Come back early, the food is cold. Come back soon." There was so much concern on the phone that Ye Ruling felt a little more awake.
"Yeah." She agreed obediently.
When she turned to look for Ranyue, she saw that Ranyue had stopped a taxi for her and waved to her: "Ye Ruling, come on, I'll take you home."
From the main gate of the Lin family to the main house of the Lin family, there is a wide and long cement road. Tall plane trees are planted on both sides of the road. In summer, it is covered with greenery and a little bit of sunshine. Now, it has entered autumn without realizing it.
The sky is high and the air is crisp. The scenery on this road at night is completely different from that during the day. The long lights peek out from the leaves, illuminating the ground dimly.
After Wen Ranyue sent Ye Ruling to the door of Lin's house, the car stopped going inside. Ranyue told the driver to wait for a while, and she got out of the car and walked inside with Ye Ruling.
"Ranyue, I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
"Yes Yes."
"Ranyue, don't tell Lin Chutian..."
"If 'not telling' is the way to protect you, I will listen to you, but if Chen Kerui does anything, I will not be able to agree to your request of me today."
"good."
As they walked forward slowly, they saw someone pacing back and forth on the other side of the road. As soon as they saw them, they immediately walked towards them quickly.
Before he had time to change out of today's formal clothes and put down his coat, he was looking around to look around.
"Where are you looking for Ru Ling?" Mother Lin looked at his restless posture and asked with a smile.
"……Um."
"Not back yet."
She usually gets off work earlier than him, and she doesn't stay outside too much. If she has an appointment, she will tell her in advance. Although he has doubts in his heart, he doesn't say them out. He wants to call, but because they are having a cold war these days,
He was still angry, so he slept in the living room with his quilt in his arms for the past few nights. When he came back, he saw her sleeping soundly on the big bed, as if everything was his own fault, so he abandoned himself in the North Pole and cut off contact with her.
But he couldn't compromise easily. He was bringing it upon himself. He felt even more impetuous and even made bad behavior in the company one after another. He hesitated and waited for a while, until it was almost time to start dinner, and Ye Ruling was still nowhere to be found, so he made a phone call.
In Ye Ruling's studio, Qingsi said: "Ye Ruling left at noon!"
Ye Ruling is missing!
For a moment, I felt that my blindly high self-esteem was so thin and ridiculous that force and indifference were of no use to him. All the negative emotions imposed on Ye Ruling would be returned in full by Ye Ruling!
"Ye Ruling said she will be home soon." He was still anxious and worried, but his mother came over and said calmly.
"She called you!"
"Ah, no, I called her, otherwise how would I know." Mother Lin looked puzzled. Isn't it okay to call her daughter-in-law?
"Ye Ruling also called me. She said that she was held back because of an important business meeting. She asked everyone to eat first and not wait for her today."
"That's it..."
"We can't let grandpa wait for the junior too."
"how about you?"
"I'll wait for her a little longer and I'll go in soon."
Mother Lin took a meaningful look at her son, who looked very good.
Lin Chutian has had his own ideas since he was a child. He lived in school when he was young and studied abroad as a teenager. He was used to making his own decisions when he was away all year round. He developed an extremely arbitrary and tortuous personality. For example, he never refused face-to-face if he didn't like what he wanted, but
It must be a roundabout way to make things obsolete to suit his wishes. As for objects, this is even more true. If you don't like it, you can throw it away at will, no matter how expensive it is.
Ever since he was a child, he has been obedient to everything arranged at home. Except for the matter of marrying Ye Ruling, whether he is following the wishes of his parents or having a plan in his heart, even she, a mother, cannot give an accurate answer.
instruction of.
Now that he is married, he has just returned home to live. During this period of observation, although he never said it openly, he treated Ye Ruling with all his heart and effort. Mother Lin couldn't explain clearly for a while, and a person's happiness and anger can be easily understood.
Being affected by another person, is this a good thing or a bad thing? Before turning around, she sighed softly and inaudibly.
As soon as he heard that Ye Ruling was coming soon, he couldn't sit still anymore. He put on a cardigan and walked outside to wait, but he never saw the car coming. The more he waited, the more anxious he became. He held the phone tightly in his hand, hesitating whether to take it or not.
Make a call.
"Where have you been?" was the first thing he said when he walked up to her. "You obviously left the studio early tomorrow. Why are you so late? I'm very worried."
"It's okay, it's okay, don't worry, Ranyue, don't worry either." Ye Ruling laughed playfully while waving her hands. She swayed left and right a few times and collapsed. Before her body completely landed on the ground, she was caught in Lin Chutian's arms.
"Chutian, since you came to pick her up, I will go back first. The car is still waiting for me at the door." She left in a hurry.
"Ranyue..." Lin Chutian hesitated. If Ranyue didn't speak, then he would have no way of knowing about Ye Ruling. He hated this feeling that he couldn't control, but he chose to face Ye Ruling.
, he can't do anything.
"Ye Ruling is fine, she just drank a little wine." Wen Ranyue had walked a long way and heard Lin Chutian calling her, so she turned around and answered loudly, then continued to turn around and walk away. Ranyue
Coming and going seemed particularly hurried.
Lin Chutian supported Ye Ruling and frowned, "Why are you drinking..."
"Lin Chutian, I only drank a little, so I can't tell. I won't reveal my secret in front of my elders."
"Why not? Look how red your face is. Also, you talk a lot now. This is a sign of drunkenness."
"Then I'll wait until the alcohol smell subsides before entering the house."
"Okay, okay. You won't see it at all, if you just smile and don't speak for a while."
Ye Ruling did drink a lot, but the more she drank, the clearer her consciousness became. Only when she got to the door did she realize that she had committed a taboo. Less than three months after she married into the Lin family, she started to come home late.
"It's okay, everyone has gone to rest. Are you hungry?"
Ye Ruling subconsciously touched her belly and nodded: "Well, I'm so hungry."
After serving porridge for her, she lowered her head and drank it slowly. Suddenly the tune switched from a long lecture to a silent movie. Then after saying good night to her elders, she went back to the house to rest.
He stopped losing his temper and returned to the bedroom obediently. Ye Ruling was completely indifferent to his conciliatory actions, and Lin Chutian felt a little frustrated.
In Ye Ruling's understanding, Lin Chutian went to the living room to rest because she felt the weather was hot. She felt sticky on her body just after taking a shower, and she was not willing to sleep next to others. Now that the weather is cold, he
Just come back.
After turning off the main light, he saw her eyes wide open from the bed light, staring firmly at the ceiling.
"Can't sleep?"
"Um."
"what's on your mind?"
"Thinking about everything, not thinking about anything." She answered after a brief silence.
"Ye Ruling!" He felt flustered again and sat up from the bed. Seeing him like this, Ye Ruling also sat up slowly.
This person is around, but never around. He never forces her, because as long as she is within his reach, as long as he wants, he can have it easily, but he has enough patience and care, and he can definitely do it.
Let her focus all on herself. However, she is always not on the same channel as herself. She
"Why are you doing this to me!" Lin Chutian growled, his rare anger was all because of her, "What makes you dissatisfied? I feel that as soon as I get closer to you, you will push me away. If it is
In that case, why don’t you stop all my ideas from the beginning!”
"Lin Chutian, how did we get to this point..." At this moment, her eyes were red and tears were welling up in her eyes.
After the words came out of her mouth, Ye Ruling felt secretly surprised. When did her tone change to such a resentful tone? Doesn't she hate the position of begging and complaining the most? The independence she pursued wholeheartedly collapsed unknowingly.
Yet?
——How did we get to this point?
Their "fingertips" engagement was actually not legally binding in all seriousness. If he didn't want to get married, no one could drag him into the wedding hall.
But he acquiesced. He even let her come to him with no escape.
Lin Chutian had never thought about why he would force Ye Ruling to come here.
The first time he learned that Ye Ruling was his fiancée, he had just entered junior high school. During a family chat, they suddenly brought the subject to him.
"I wonder what Chu Tian will look like when he gets married in the future?" Mom suddenly thought of something and covered her mouth and laughed.
"Haha, although it's still early, I'm still curious. What do you think the little girl from the Ye family looks like?" Dad is obviously also very interested in this topic.
