Chapter 4 Unworthy

At night, the Chu family.

At the dinner table, Chu’s father and mother had unconcealed smiles on their faces, as if the things they had been caring about were finally settled.

Chu's mother took the initiative to pick up a chopstick dish and put it into Chu Jiao's bowl. "Today, Mrs. Xie called me and said she wanted to find time to treat us to dinner and book the wedding date first."

Chu Jiao lowered her head and responded.

From the moment she saw her parents' expressions at night, she had already guessed the rough idea in her heart.

According to the previous plan, the Chu family and Xie family have a cooperation, and it is time to start construction in September, but the contract has not been signed yet.

So since the beginning of spring this year, her parents have always deliberately urged her to go back on her wedding, for fear that the Xie family will regret it.

For her parents, her greatest value is that she is loved by Song Meiruo, and being able to marry into the Xie family brings benefits to them.

Chu Jiao has known this since she became sensible.

But even so, when Chu Jiao's brows couldn't help but press down on her brows when she heard her mother say, "How your dad and I can live in the second half of her life depends on how high you can stand in the Xie family."

She put down the chopsticks and said, "I'm full, go up first."

Chu Jianfeng looked at her with anger on his face, "We raised you, don't think I can't see that you are impatient. Is your mother wrong? If you don't listen carefully now, you will suffer the consequences when you marry in the future!"

"Is it me who suffers?" Chu Jiao gently pulled the corners of her lips, looking at the man sitting on the main seat, her father, with sarcasm on her face.

Chu Jiao continued in a faint voice: "You are just afraid that I will not be able to marry Uncle Xie and will not bring you more practical benefits."

Chu Jiao understands all these things that she has been used to it for so many years.

But when her father says she is happy for her, she still finds it ridiculous. She is obviously a family, but she sits here and says such hypocritical words.

People are shameless. No matter how dirty you have, you are unwilling to admit it so directly. Therefore, you are given some good names to make all this a natural thing, and you can also make yourself "a clear conscience".

Now that this hypocritical veil was caught off guard by Chu Jiao's understatement, Chu Jianfeng's face suddenly couldn't hold back, or because he could not refute it at all.

Chu Jianfeng smashed the cup at his hand hard on the table and said angrily: "Niu Ni! What are you talking nonsense?"

"You know better than me if you are talking nonsense."

Seeing that the two seemed to be quarreling, her mother Su Ling quickly made a smooth move, "If you don't say anything between father and daughter, you shouldn't be careful. You shouldn't always keep in mind so much. And Jiaojiao, you are not sure about your father's temper, what are you calculating with him."

Chu Jiao looked at her mother and said, "Mom, since you are almost achieving your goal, you don't need to emphasize some things repeatedly in the future, so as not to cause trouble if any rumors come out."

The engagement between Chu Jiao and Xie Yu is undoubtedly the Chu family's high-spirited relationship.

But it is absolutely different to tell the truth from the Chu family.

After Chu Jiao finished speaking, she walked straight upstairs.

Su Ling quickly took the cup away from her husband's hand and continued to persuade: "Jiaojiao said it is actually right. I didn't know how to say the wrong thing just now. Let's be more careful in the future. She has been sensible since childhood and should do whatever she should not do. In fact, she is more sensible than us."

Chu Jianfeng nodded and reluctantly followed the steps given by his wife.

After returning to the room, the smile on Chu Jiao's face disappeared.

This was the first time Chu Jiao refuted her father, and even had such a quarrel, but she did not regret it.

My parents always mention the benefits that her marriage with Xie Yu can bring. They talk too many times, and sometimes Chu Jiao is almost convinced.

But in fact, she likes Xie Yu and really wants to marry him.

Now that we are finally going to achieve our goal, even though there are so many interests and her scheming in the process, Chu Jiao still hopes that her love should at least be pure.

At least Chu Jiao must not forget her, even if Xie Yu doesn't like her.

That night, Chu Jiao had a dream.

That was also a memory from many years ago, but it was recalled again in the form of a dream.

The trees and light and shadow intertwined, and on the path full of sunshine, the girl ran forward anxiously.

I went to bed late last night because of the failure of the monthly exam. I booked five alarms in the morning but didn't get up.

As a standard outstanding student, Chu Jiao has never been late.

The teacher on duty outside on Monday was her class teacher. She was a serious middle-aged woman and would definitely call Chu’s mother to complain. She didn’t do well in the monthly exam this time, so her mother would definitely be even more angry.

The sound of the preparatory bell rang, and Chu Jiao stopped running.

She was even more distressed, today was over.

Suddenly, she thought of the students in her class who mentioned skipping classes and mentioned the East Gate most often. It is said that behind the woods, there is a wall built shorter, so it is easy to get it out.

Chu Jiao hesitated for two seconds, but turned around and ran towards the back door.

Sure enough, there was a wall there that was thirty centimeters shorter than the others.

Chu Jiao found a stone to put it under her feet, then reached out and started a difficult attempt.

Chu Jiao's impression was that when she was a child, she climbed up a tree to save a cat. Finally, the cat saw her coming and ran away, leaving her alone on the tree and was frightened and crying.

But grandparents found her to save her and laughed at her for a long time.

After so many years of climbing trees, it was actually to skip classes.

But it went smoothly. Even though the process was a bit difficult, Chu Jiao still climbed up.

However, when she finally stood on the wall, a similar scene appeared again, and Chu Jiao didn't dare to jump down.

The preparatory bell is almost over and time is short.

But after cheering herself up a few times, Chu Jiao only felt that her legs were trembling even harder.

Until a urging voice sounded, "Hey, I said you can't get down, I'm still waiting to go out."

Suddenly, when he heard someone talking, Chu Jiao was so scared that she almost fell down. She looked at the place where the sound was made.

The boy approached and looked at her with his head raised, with a clear impatient look in his eyes, "What are you looking at?

At this moment, embarrassment and regret completely filled Chu Jiao's brain.

She never thought that she would meet Xie Yu here.

Less than a week after the first year of high school, she also heard that Xie Yu and she were in the same high school, but she did not expect that the first time they met would be in this situation.

Xie Yu naturally recognized her and laughed thoughtfully, "It turns out that good students will skip classes."

Looking at Chu Jiao's face, Xie Yu suddenly felt that this person who was so lawless and boring in the past was also interesting, "Jump down, I'll follow you."

Chu Jiao naturally didn't dare, but the boy was much more patient. After a few words of coaxing her, she hesitated.

She jumped down, and he caught her, staggered back and stood firm, but he still hugged her tightly in his arms.

The summer sun, the cicadas, and the pleasant smell of the boy, not to mention that she had liked him,

At this moment, the heart beats wildly.

The boy's voice was laughing in her ears, and he said a joke, "I said, it will be a fee to hold it down."

Chu Jiao then suddenly let go of her hand, her face turned red and she thanked her for leaving.

The stories in memory should have stopped here.

In the dream, Chu Jiao couldn't help but turn her head. She looked at Xie Yu and plucked up the courage to confess, "I like you."

That was something she never had the courage to say in reality, but it could be realized in dreams.

The boy leaned against the tree with his hands and leaned against the tree, looking at her with a smile, his eyes were cold and thin.

He said: "What are you looking forward to? Should I like you? Don't be foolish, I won't marry you."

Chu Jiao in the dream wanted to escape, but when she turned around, she found that there was a cliff abyss behind her.

But there was another quagmire under her feet.

The nightmare ended suddenly here, and Chu Jiao suddenly woke up. In such a slightly hot weather, she was covered in cold sweat.

Chu Jiao got up and walked to the table and poured herself a glass of warm water to drink. She breathed a sigh of relief and tried to calm her mood.

It's just a dream, don't take it seriously.

bar.

The boy leaned on the sofa, holding a cocktail high in his hand and stared at him for a long time, as if he was thinking about something.

His posture had been maintained for too long that Quan Ye couldn't stand it anymore and snatched the wine glass from him. "You called me out in the middle of the night just to hold a wine glass until dawn? If you have anything to say, you're dumb?"

The Quan family and the Xie family are family friends, so Xie Yu and Quan Ye have grown up in the same mud since childhood, with a good temper and a good relationship.

For Quan Ye, this was the first time he saw Xie Yu look like this.

Xie Yu looked up at the ceiling, his voice filled with indescribable annoyance, "I'm getting married."

"Isn't it just marriage? What a big deal." Quan Ye said, then raised his glass and took a sip. The next second his expression became stiff. Before he could swallow a sip of wine, he choked directly.

Quan Ye quickly wiped his chin with a tissue, and then realized what Xie Yu said. He couldn't believe it: "With Chu Jiao? You two are too inappropriate."

Xie Yu's expression became more and more annoyed, "Even you can see that we are not suitable. She is not the type I like at all, and I don't know what my mother is thinking."
