C52 (1/2)

It was a strange thing.

Even while cooking for Lu Chen, I was still thinking about it. Due to a lack of concentration, I managed to cut my hand when I was cutting vegetables. In a hurry to get a tissue, he accidentally knocked the plate off the table. Hearing the sound, Lu Chen ran into the kitchen in a fluster.

After seeing the situation inside, Lu Chen turned around and went out to get a medical kit. His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He was angry again. I helplessly looked at him as he wrapped his fingers around me without saying a word. ”It doesn't matter if I hurt him or not. I'll have to look at his face for a few days if I hurt him.

Right now, it was better for him to admit his mistakes obediently. ”I was just thinking about something and I was just a bit careless.”

”What are you thinking? So serious. ” Lu Chen asked slowly.

”I was thinking that I haven't seen Zhou Zijie in a long time.”

Lu Chen's hand paused for a moment before he mockingly said, ”You missed her? I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with her.”

”I miss her because I'm crazy,” I said aloud. ”I just thought it was weird. You think I'm used to fighting with her? She just disappeared, and I... I can't really miss her, right? ”

Lu Chen wrapped his fingers around his finger as he said while collecting his stuff, ”You really care about too many things in a day. Just take care of me.” By the way, did you call your parents? When are they coming? ”

I had the feeling that Lu Chen was purposefully changing the subject. I know he doesn't want to say it, but I still want to ask.

”I called them and they said they'd be here next week. Have you seen Zhou Zijie recently? ”

Lu Chen was helpless. He wanted to say something, but hesitated and thought for a moment before opening his mouth again, ”She and Yulin had a small conflict. Even though I'm an elder, it's not good for me to meddle in the affairs of this couple. ”

I seemed to understand, but remembered what happened on the bus, so I casually asked, ”In the future when we have a conflict, will you go find another woman?”

”That depends on how contradictory it is. If it's something especially big, I …” He paused deliberately with a faint smile on his face. ”Neither do I.”

I scolded him and gave him a light punch. This man is so bad that he teased me.

The matter with Zhou Zijie didn't haunt me for long. I soon forgot about it. The next time I saw her was at a dress shop. Qian Chenjie and I came to pick out her bridesmaid costume. When we entered the room, Zhou Zijie had already picked up the card and was swiping it.

She didn't seem to see us for a few seconds. But with a quick glance, I thought I saw a faint bruise at the corner of her mouth.

I shook my head and muttered, ”Why would anyone hit her?” She must have hit it herself. Maybe I was wrong. ”

Qian Chenjie was picking up her dress when she heard me ask, ”Are you reciting? ”What are you mumbling about?”

”I just saw Zhou Zijie. She seemed to have been beaten up.”

”Her temperament being beaten up is very normal. Maybe she's having a falling out with Lu Yulin or something.” Qian Chenjie didn't seem to mind at all, but her words were much better than what I had imagined, because what I was thinking about was Lu Yulin beating her up. Do you think this looks good? ” she asked, pointing to a dress.

I glanced at the dress. It looked good, but it was on Lu Chen's blacklist. The neckline of the small dress was opened very low, showing her proud upper body.
