Chapter 11 (A hug to warm...)(2/2)
It's 2013 now. She is 43 years old. She is not old, but she is not young anymore. But at this moment, she is burning big waves, sticking out exaggerated eyelashes, and wearing too rich makeup. She is wearing a casual sweatshirt and pleated skirt that young girls like now. She is wearing a silhouette cashmere jacket, and underneath it is a black thick stocking with fake flesh and studded Martin boots.
Not age-appropriate, messy.
Yu Li pursed her lips and observed her, feeling depressed after thinking about something.
Perhaps her gaze was too obvious, and the woman who was stalemate with Huo Zhenyu suddenly looked at her, and the two looked at each other unexpectedly. Yu Li hurriedly nodded and greeted: "Hello Auntie."
A trace of unnatural flashed across the woman's expression. Just as she was about to speak, Huo Zhenyu turned around and scolded: "Don't call people around."
When the woman heard what he said, she was immediately unhappy: "What do you mean by Huo Zhenyu? I think my mother is embarrassing you, right?"
"Who are you? I don't know you," Huo Zhenyu's eyes were filled with anger. "Looking at your messy look, it's really disgusting."
"Huo Zhenyu!" The woman was about to lose her temper again, but the gaze around her made her endure it. She gritted her teeth and took out a thick stack of money from her bag, "Hold it, I'll leave now, so that it won't get in your eyes."
"I said, I don't want it." Huo Zhenyu's expressionless face.
The woman frowned and said, "I'll let you take it!" After that, she stuffed it directly into Huo Zhenyu's pocket. Huo Zhenyu immediately refused, but the woman refused. It seemed that outsiders were pushing her and pushing her.
Yu Li hurriedly stopped him, but as soon as he walked up, Huo Zhenyu's patience was completely exhausted, he snatched the money and threw it on the ground: "I said I don't want it!"
After saying that, he turned around and left in anger. Yu Li vaguely saw the corners of his eyes flushed and was about to follow him. But after taking two steps, he saw the woman's helpless expression and stopped again.
"...Auntie, are you okay?" she asked carefully.
The woman was stunned for a moment, and soon turned her face coldly and said, "It's okay, go find him."
Yu Li pursed her lips, but did not listen to her, but squatted down to pick up the money that Huo Zhenyu threw away. Today's wind is not small, and the banknotes are very light. It is blowing so much that she can only squat and move, picking up one by one seriously.
The woman's eyes fell on her again at some point. After staring at her for a long time, she suddenly asked, "Are you his girlfriend?"
Yu Li picked up the last piece of money and put it away, then stood up from the ground, nodding obediently: "...yes."
The woman stared at her for a long time before sneering: "I have also heard of Huo Zhenyu's performance at school. Generally speaking, good girls will not like him, so what do you like and his money?"
Yu Li was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
"If you like his money, then you will be disappointed. He doesn't want any penny of his money. He only has the pocket money he saved since childhood. According to his failure, he will be able to spend it completely. You can't make anything. If you are the one who seeks him," the woman paused, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes. "Then you will be even more disappointed. Now he has nothing to put on the table except a good face."
After saying the last sentence, she did not give Yu Li a chance to refute and turned around and left.
"Auntie! Your money!" Yu Li hurriedly called her.
The woman didn't look back: "What you picked up is yours."
Yu Li wanted to chase after her and return her, but when she thought of her stubbornness, she silently gave up this idea.
I'll give it to her again if I have the chance in the future. Yu Li sighed lightly, and looked at her shivering because of the cold, and couldn't help but frown.
Yu Li watched her get into the taxi and pinched her nose and went straight to the campus of B University. She did not call Huo Zhenyu, nor went to the dormitory to find someone, but went straight to the artificial lake near the library. After walking around for a half circle, she found him on the abandoned bench in the corner.
The moonlight was pale and the water surface was sparkling. He sat there expressionlessly, revealing a sense of maturity that was not as good as his age. Yu Li felt so distressed that she bit her lower lip and walked over.
When the shadows were shrouded in front of her, Huo Zhenyu raised her head, and after seeing her, she was silent for a moment, and then her voice became a little hoarse: "How did you find this place?"
Because every time you are unhappy, you will run to this uninhabited place to calm down alone. Yu Li chuckled, sat down obediently on his side, and reached out to connect his fingers.
"Auntie has left," Yu Li whispered, "but she has not taken away her money, and she is still in my bag."
"Well, you picked it up, I gave it to you." Huo Zhenyu lowered his eyes and replied casually.
Yu Li couldn't help but chuckled when she heard this. Huo Zhenyu turned her head to look at her: "What are you laughing at?"
"I laughed at you as mother and son, and you even said the same thing." Yu Li blinked.
Huo Zhenyu had a stern face: "It's not funny."
Yu Li: “…”
After a while, she sighed softly: "Your first entered college, your dad couldn't wait to bring his first love home. Actually, my mom is quite pitiful."
"She is not pitiful," Huo Zhenyu refused to look at her, "There are people outside her."
Yu Li: "?" Huo Chenfo told her about this!
Just when she was stunned, Huo Zhenyu laughed sarcastically: "I originally thought she was pitiful, so I packed my luggage and wanted to follow her. As soon as I arrived at the place where she lived, I saw her and a man... I couldn't help but beat the man. Do you know what she said?"
Huo Zhenyu looked into her eyes and said word by word: "She asked me to get out, saying that she had had enough of our family surnamed Huo. Although she said impulse, she also had sincere feelings. Then I realized why she told me to follow my dad after the divorce, instead of taking me away from the beginning."
Yu Li looked at him in a daze, and after a long time, she murmured: "I'm sorry..." She had never heard Huo Chen mention these things once, so she didn't know how to comfort her.
The family suddenly fell apart, and their parents had their own lives. He was deceived by the person he believed the most. There were traces of rebellion and resistance. The way she could help him share his sadness seemed to be silently left.
It was very cold in winter, and the lakeside was even colder. Yu Li's feet became cold after sitting for a while. She wanted to move to warm up, but she didn't grasp the strength. The cold soles of her feet hurt so hard that her calves, and her expression instantly became subtle.
"What's wrong?" Huo Zhenyu asked suddenly.
Yu Li stopped and spoke awkwardly for a while: "The feet are cold."
Huo Zhenyu stared at her for a while, couldn't help but chuckled, leaning over to untie her shoelaces. Yu Li hurriedly leaned over and said, "What are you doing?"
