When Su Rou went to school the next day, Jiang Ling was already in the classroom. Seeing Su Rou walk in, he finally let out a sigh of relief. Then he asked in a hurry, "Xiaorou, are you okay?"
"Me?" Su Rou smiled. "Why do you ask like this?"
"I saw you get into a car the day before yesterday, but you didn't come to school yesterday. I was a bit worried that something might have happened to you." Jiang Ling said worriedly. Although Su Rou got into the car by herself, her absence from class yesterday still made him feel a bit concerned.
Su Rou knew that Jiang Ling really cared about her, so she said, "Don't worry. I'm fine."
"That's good." Jiang Ling also smiled.
Wen Haotian originally wanted to send bodyguards to follow Su Rou every day, but Su Rou's words made him cancel the plan. Su Rou said, "Don't you trust me at all?"
Wen Haotian thought he might have been too over - cautious. He was so vigilant towards a little girl.
So Su Rou got rid of the fate of being followed.
...
In class, Jiang Ling was listening attentively. But when he glanced sideways, he saw Su Rou sending text messages, with a smile on her lips. This really made Jiang Ling a bit curious. Who was she texting with? Why was she so happy?
"Xiaorou?" Jiang Ling called her in a low voice.
"Hmm?" Su Rou replied.
"Who are you... chatting with? It's class time now!" Actually, Jiang Ling had a selfish thought of "monopolizing" Su Rou in class, because he thought Su Rou might be chatting with her boyfriend.
After Su Rou finished replying to a text message, she started to take notes seriously. "Jiang Ling, I won't go with you at noon today."
"Okay..." Jiang Ling forced a bitter smile. Anyway, he should have faced the reality long ago. Xiaorou already had a boyfriend.
After class at noon, Su Rou went straight to the school gate. The afternoon class was an elective course, so it didn't matter if she didn't attend!
Su Yuze was already sitting in an ordinary car. "Xiaorour, your afternoon class is an elective. Do you want to go?"
"Well, do you want me to go?" Su Rou replied with a smile.
"Of course not." Su Yuze said with a gentle smile.
The two hadn't seen each other for almost two weeks. They reunited yesterday, but she fell asleep. "By the way, Brother Ze, let's not go near Wen Haotian's company. If he sees us together, he will definitely send someone to monitor me."
"I know." Su Yuze drove the car very skillfully. After all, this place was not unfamiliar to him. He could also take Xiaorour to visit this prosperous area during today's date.
There was always a Chinatown in every foreign city. Su Yuze took Su Rou through that street. The two were just like ordinary lovers. Su Rou held Su Yuze's arm, chatting and laughing while eating a bunch of fish balls.
"Have one." Su Rou bit one off and then stretched out her hand to Su Yuze.
Su Yuze didn't like sweet food very much, but since it was fed by Su Rou, he had to give her face and eat one.
While strolling, Su Rou couldn't help but think of the happy days she had with Xiao Yun and Yu Fei before. She scratched her head and took a deep breath.
"What's wrong?" Su Yuze seemed to sense Su Rou's heavy mood and asked softly.
"Nothing. I just thought of Yunyun and Feifei." Su Rou bit the fish ball. She used to eat this with them often. "How are they?"
"Well, Yu Fei is still the same. It's not very likely for a vegetative person to wake up, but we still haven't given up the treatment. Xiao Yun is still in college, studying the major she likes. You can rest assured." Su Yuze knew Su Rou's concerns.
Su Rou took a deep breath, and a smile reappeared on her face. Although the three good friends were separated, they would surely get together again one day.
Su Yuze took Su Rou to visit the landmark places in Washington. The time for playing always passed quickly. Su Rou checked the time. It was almost time for the driver to pick her up after school. Although she was a bit reluctant, she still had to go back to the Wen's house.
Su Rou seemed to think of something and suddenly burst out laughing. "What's so funny? Tell me." Su Yuze also asked with a smile.
"Well... I thought that it seems like we're having an affair." Just like teenagers being afraid of being found out by adults for their puppy love and having a secret date.
"Hehe..." Su Yuze also chuckled. "It seems that we've always been having an affair like this."
Su Rou thought it was true. It seemed that since they confirmed their relationship, they had always been having a secret relationship!
When he dropped Su Rou off near the Wen's house, "Xiaorour, call me if you have something. My phone will be on 24 hours a day."
"Okay."
"And don't skip meals just because I'm not around. You've lost weight again."
"Okay."
"One last thing... Give me a kiss."
Su Rou leaned over and kissed Su Yuze on the lips, then got out of the car.
It was still a few minutes before five o'clock. Wen Haotian and Yao Yu hadn't come home yet. Only Aunt Yue was at home. Seeing Su Rou come back, Aunt Yue was a bit surprised. "Little Miss, why are you back so early?"
"Ah, the afternoon class is an elective. I didn't want to go, so I came back."
"Oh..." Aunt Yue nodded. "There's a lot of juice in the fridge. I don't know which kind you like, so I bought some of each."
"Okay."
...
Wen Haotian received a call from his subordinate saying that they hadn't picked up Su Rou again today. His face immediately changed. First, he ordered his men to go out and look for Su Rou, and then he rushed home in a hurry.
When he pushed the door open, he saw Su Rou lying on the sofa watching TV. Seeing Wen Haotian come in, out of breath, she was first a bit confused, but then immediately understood.
"Don't tell me you thought I ran away again?" Su Rou asked indifferently.
"..." In fact, it was exactly so. "Of course not!"
"Then why are you in such a hurry?"
"I... I remembered there was a document at home." Wen Haotian said. "You had class this afternoon, didn't you?" If the driver hadn't said that he didn't pick up Su Rou after school, would he have rushed home like this?
"I don't want to go to the afternoon class. Is that not okay?" Su Rou said casually.
"Of course it's okay." Wen Haotian was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's okay. If you don't want to go to class, just come home."
Go home if you don't want to go to class? It sounded like he was acquiescing to Su Rou's skipping class and even seemed to approve of it, but in fact, it contained an order for her to go back to the Wen's house! After all, he was still afraid that she would run away!
Su Rou just smiled and said nothing.
