Su Rou felt quite puzzled. Just now, she clearly felt that Su Yuze was extremely eager to get that piece of land. Especially when the opponent was Su Kaiming, how could Su Yuze just give it up like that?
"Brother Ze, why didn't you want it just now?" If this piece of land was really of great value, even if it cost a fortune, as long as it was properly developed, the money could surely be earned back, right?
"Well... weren't you worried that my bankbook balance wasn't enough?" Su Yuze said with a smile.
"Ah?" Su Rou slightly parted her lips. "I was just joking."
"I'd better save the money so that I can afford to marry a wife in the future." Su Yuze put his arm around Su Rou's shoulder and said.
"Who are you going to marry?" Su Rou asked.
"The woman I want to marry."
Such an ambiguous answer! "Besides me, who else could you marry? How dare you marry someone else?"
Su Yuze shook his head. "I dare not."
Su Rou was greatly pleased by Su Yuze's words. But when she came to her senses, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have been distracted from the topic. "Su Yuze, you're trying to fool me!"
"Hehe..." Su Yuze let out a soft laugh. "Everything I said just now was from the bottom of my heart."
"I know... But you still have to tell me the reason." Su Rou grabbed his arm.
"I never said that I must win the bid for that piece of land," Su Yuze explained. "Right?"
Su Rou thought for a while. It seemed that he really hadn't said so. But then he had bid so seriously against Su Kaiming just now... Could it be that he was playing the long - game to catch a big fish?
Seeing that Su Rou seemed to have figured something out, he asked, "Understood?"
"Were you trying to deceive Su Kaiming?" Su Rou looked up at him. "Or rather, were you setting him up?"
"Well... You can put it that way."
Su Yuze, this big bad wolf! He was indeed setting Su Kaiming up. He just pretended to bid and then lured Su Kaiming into the trap.
"Then why did you come here?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to come and take a look?" Su Yuze answered naturally. "So I brought you here."
"..." Su Rou really wanted to slap him. He could have said so earlier! "Then now..." It was not even ten o'clock yet.
"Let's go on a date." Su Yuze opened the car door for Su Rou. "Where do you want to go?"
"There's a newly released movie. Let's go and watch it," Su Rou flipped through her WeChat on her phone. "It's a horror movie and it's in 3D. It'll be really exciting."
"Okay."
Su Kaiming won the bid for that piece of land, but he always felt something strange. Su Yuze had left so decisively, without any sign of regret, as if he had never wanted that land at all!
"Xiaoka, am I... being set up?" Su Kaiming asked his assistant inexplicably.
Xiaoka looked at Su Kaiming in the same puzzled way. "Chairman? What did you just say?" He hadn't heard clearly.
"Never mind." Su Kaiming shook his head. Maybe... it was just an illusion. Of course Su Yuze had to leave after losing the bid. After all, he must have felt bad, right?
...
On Sunday, Su Rou met Xiao Yun. The two went to the hospital to visit Yu Fei. Yu Fei was still the same as before. Every time they visited her, it seemed that Yu Fei had lost a little more weight. It was really heart - wrenching to see.
Guo Yi was wiping Yu Fei's face with a wet towel. When he saw Xiao Yun and Su Rou, he smiled at them. "I heard that Sister Rou, you've started working. Aren't you going to school anymore?"
"Well... I probably won't go to school for the time being." Su Rou had been working for so long that she had almost forgotten that she was still a college student.
"My parents want me to learn accounting, but I just can't seem to learn it," Guo Yi said with a frown. "You haven't finished your finance studies yet. Why did you start working?"
"Actually, after you start working, you don't use much of what you've learned from books. It mainly depends on self - study and hard work," Su Rou said, summarizing her experience.
Guo Yi's expression changed for a while before he finally let out a sigh reluctantly. "I suddenly don't want to graduate." Once he graduated, there would be all kinds of things.
Xiao Yun was amused by Guo Yi's words. "Guo Yi, you're so spineless! Be careful that Yu Fei won't want you when she wakes up!"
Su Rou also chimed in. "Yeah, Feifei is very capable. You know that. If you don't have any skills in the future, don't blame us if Feifei runs away with someone else."
Guo Yi shrugged helplessly. "Okay, for Feifei's sake, I'll work harder... But accounting is really difficult. It involves calculations, and my math is not good in the first place."
Xiao Yun slapped Guo Yi on the back. "Be a man! There's the provincial science top - scorer standing right in front of you. Are you still afraid that your math won't improve?"
Guo Yi suddenly realized. "Oh right, Sister Rou! Please, do me a favor."
"Hey, I really can't help you. I'm already working and I don't have the time," Su Rou said, smiling and waving her hand.
Guo Yi's face fell again. "Okay..." It seemed that he could only study hard on his own.
After chatting with Guo Yi for a while, Xiao Yun and Su Rou were about to leave. "Rourou, are you really not going back to school?" Xiao Yun was quite reluctant to part with her. She really missed the old days when the three of them were in high school.
"Well... I think my current working life is quite good. And..." Su Rou paused. "Wasn't my relationship with Brother Ze exposed? If I go back to school, there will surely be people talking about me behind my back."
Xiao Yun thought for a while and felt that Su Rou was right. "You're right. Especially people like Su Meimei. They only know how to gossip all day long."
Su Rou smiled at her. "I'm sorry, Yunyun. I've left you alone." Su Rou felt a bit guilty. Yu Fei was still in the hospital, and she was also inconvenient to go to school because of what had happened. So Xiao Yun was the only one left in school.
"What are you talking about!" Xiao Yun pretended to be angry. "If you talk like this, I'll really get angry. As long as you're happy, it's fine. We can still meet each other. Besides, Guo Yi is still in school! If I'm bored, I can go and play with him."
"Yeah, I hope you'll be happy too." In this world, besides family, best friends were the most considerate.
"Okay." Xiao Yun also showed a big smile, indicating that she was very happy.
After saying goodbye to Xiao Yun, Su Rou was about to take a taxi home because it was getting dark, and Su Yuze would probably start urging her soon.
Just as Su Rou was waiting for a taxi, a red convertible sports car suddenly stopped in front of her. The car was full of people, and they were making a lot of noise.
The convertible stopped in front of Su Rou. The man driving the car took off his sunglasses. "Yo, what a beautiful young lady. Are you alone? Do you want to go and have fun with us?"
It was the time when the hooligans were out and about. Su Rou tightened her face and replied expressionlessly, "Get out of here."
