Chapter 158: Injustice
Xu Shu laughed for a while on the phone, and then said to me seriously: "Okay, since you are so pitiful, I will help you again, but whether it works or not depends on whether you have the ability to do it."
When I heard that, I said happily, "Really? That's great! Xu Shu, you're the only one in the world who's so kind to me. Thank you!"
"...Humph! You also know that I'm good to you? Don't be in a hurry to thank me, this matter is up to you."
"Then...what should I do?"
"How about this, I'll drive Xiaoxin over here later, and we'll agree on a place to meet. Then you can explain to my sister. If you can persuade her not to go, that would be the best. But if you can't, then... just tell her the truth, so that she doesn't find out you're a liar when she's at Jingjing's house. If there's a scene, it'll be embarrassing for everyone."
I was stunned for a moment, and said darkly: "Actually... I didn't mean to deceive Xiaoxin. Sometimes, I can't help myself, and I don't want to hurt her!"
"I know, otherwise how could I let you go so easily? My sister is so young, and... Humph!"
I sighed and said, "It seems that this is the only way. But what should I say when I see Xiaoxin?"
"You ask me, who should I ask? You don't want me to give you advice on this, do you? I don't care, you decide for yourself."
I thought for a long time, sighed again, and said, "Then I'll wait for you at the road above Jingjing's house. I'll give it a try!"
"Okay! We'll be there on time in an hour!"
I hurriedly finished my haircut and drove to the roadside above Hua's house. After waiting for a while, Xu Shu drove the car and stopped behind me. I got out of the car and opened Xu Shu's door, and saw the little witch puffing her cheeks and looking at me with an unhappy face.
Xu Shu unbuckled his seat belt and said with a smile, "You guys chat, I'll stay away."
Xu Xin was startled and shouted, "Sister, what are you doing? Who wants to talk to him?"
Xu Shu smiled, pushed the door open, got out, and walked into my car. Xu Xin turned around and glared at me, angrily saying, "Tang Qian, what do you mean by this? Did you collude with my sister?"
I looked at the little witch who had obviously matured after not seeing her for half a year, and said seriously: "Xiao Xin...there are some things I want to talk to you about."
Xu Xin seemed to sense something was wrong. She avoided my gaze and said in panic, "I... don't want to talk to you. Why are you... looking for me here? My sister... will know."
I said, "Your sister already knew it. It was your sister who asked me to wait for you here."
Xu Xin's face immediately flushed, and she said angrily, "Who told you to tell her? Didn't I tell you that my sister might like you? How embarrassed are we two sisters when you say that?"
I suddenly remembered the phone call in the ward that Xu Shu didn't let me listen to. It turned out that this was what Xu Xin was talking about. I smiled bitterly, turned around and walked to the driver's seat, sat in, and said to the little witch: "Xiao Xin, in fact, your sister has already seen it a long time ago. You can see clearly from the sidelines, your sister is so smart, can you hide it from her?"
The little witch's face turned pale and she said, "You... won't tell me that you and my sister... are together?"
I shook my head and said, "It's impossible for your sister and I to be together. The gap in status is too big. I don't even dare to think about it!"
Xu Xin sighed, turned into a smile, and said, "That's good! This is what I'm most afraid of. How many men in the world can resist my sister's charm? I've always been worried about this!"
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment, so I had to say, "I didn't come to talk to you about this, actually I..." Halfway through the sentence, the little witch suddenly reached out and covered my mouth, saying, "I don't want to hear it! Do you want to talk about Sister Jingjing? I know you don't love her at all, don't tell me the reason! I'm not interested! A man should keep his word. You promised me that you would marry me in five years, so you can't cheat me!"
I was sweating! I had no choice but to move my head away and said, "Xiao Xin, it's not that I want to cheat, but a lot of things have happened in these days, and I also..."
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his words, Xu Xin covered his ears with both hands, shook his head and shouted, "No, no, no, no! Don't tell me!"
I had no choice but to shut up and look at her sadly. I knew in my heart that Xu Xin must have guessed something, that's why she acted like this!
"Brother Tang Qian!" Xu Xin put down her hand, crawled towards me, and snuggled into my arms, saying softly, "Brother Tang Qian, don't look at me because I'm young, but I know everything in my heart. No matter what happened between you and Sister Jingjing, I know that you don't love her."
I felt my scalp tingling, and hurriedly pushed her away, saying, "Xiao Xin... your sister is watching us, don't do this!"
Xu Xin didn't care. She put her arms around my neck and sat on my lap. She looked at me with a dazed look and said, "Xiao Xin, you know that the one you really like is my sister, right?"
I was stunned for a moment. This little witch... seems to be really not simple. Xu Xin buried her face in my chest and sighed softly: "I know everything. I won't blame you. After all, she is my sister! And didn't I tell you? It doesn't matter what woman you date in the past five years, as long as you don't let me know. I said it so clearly, don't you understand? I don't want to know what happened between you and Sister Jingjing. I can pretend to be stupid if you like my sister. But... Xiaoxin really likes you, Xiaoxin can't live without you! Brother Tang Qian! I don't care how many women you have, I just know that Xiaoxin can't live without you. Brother Tang Qian, promise me that you won't abandon me, okay?"
I was so shocked that I was speechless. I always thought that the little witch had only a naive affection for me as a little girl. But I never expected that she actually loved me so deeply.
Xu Xin said again: "Brother Tang Qian, am I stupid? I just want to be with you one-sidedly! I also know that you made a five-year agreement with me just to avoid hurting me. I thought about a lot of things last night when I was waiting for your call, but you just didn't call me. I know that I am actually not important in your heart. I am very angry, but I really don't blame you at all, really! Brother Tang Qian, I like you to the bone. You have been perfunctory to me, and I have always pretended not to know. I am young and unattractive now, so I can't do anything. But when I grow up, I have the confidence to make you fall in love with me!"
She raised her head and said firmly, "Brother Tang Qian! I don't care who you are with now, whether it's my sister or Sister Jingjing, it won't affect my love for you! I will listen to you and enter a key university. After graduation, I will chase you! Even if you are married by then, I will chase you! And I will definitely catch you! Brother Tang Qian, do you believe it?"
I was speechless, I could only sigh and call out: "Xiao Xin..."
Xu Xin smiled and said, "You are afraid that I will make trouble at Sister Jingjing's house, so you come to dissuade me, right? Don't worry! I won't. I don't have the qualifications now, and others will laugh at me. I will make trouble again in five years. By then, I won't be afraid that others will say that I am a child and don't know my way. I will make your whole family restless, hehe!"
I didn't convince her, but she almost made me speechless. I could only say, "Xiao Xin! I didn't notice that you are not a child anymore. I shouldn't have lied to you. Since you know everything, I won't hide it from you. The things I promised you before were just perfunctory. I did it for your own good. Brother Tang Qian is so old, he is really not suitable for you. You will understand when you grow up. Your sister Jingjing and I have been through a lot. I will marry her in this life. You can't break us up in five years. If you are really sensible, you should bless us and stop making trouble ."
Xu Xin pouted and said, "Who knows what will happen in five years? I won't promise you. I'm not like you who won't keep your word. I only believe that I have the ability. I don't believe that in five years, you will still treat me like a child!"
I sighed and said, "If you don't listen to my advice, there's nothing I can do. Just promise not to make trouble tonight. You will come to your senses in five years. Come on, come down. Your sister really saw it!"
Xu Xin didn't move. She smiled and said, "She already knows. What am I afraid of? I'm not as useless as her! She obviously likes you but pushes you into someone else's arms. She doesn't even have the courage to fight for you. I can't stand her temper the most!"
Through the car window, I saw Xu Shu, who was sitting in my car, looking back frequently, obviously a little anxious. So I said, "Okay, let's go to Jingjing's house. Remember what you said, don't make a fuss!"
Xu Xinge smiled and said, "I promise not to make trouble, but... I'm angry, you have to compensate me!"
I said with a bitter face: "How can I compensate for this?"
Xu Xin leaned close to my face and said with a smile, "Kiss me! Kiss me, and I will forgive you for lying to me." I leaned back to avoid her, but there was the back of a chair behind me. As soon as I called out, "Xiao Xin...", she kissed me on the mouth.
I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat. Oh my God! This happened in front of your sister! Your sister would tear me apart! I pushed her away and whispered, "Xiao Xin! Don't do anything stupid!"
Xu Xin smiled, finally revealing her witch nature, and said, "I'll give you a choice. If you don't kiss me, I'll never bother you for five years. You can have as many women as you want. If you don't kiss me, I'll tell Sister Jingjing that Brother Tang Qian and my sister are actually in love! Let's see how you explain it to Sister Jingjing! There are two choices, which one do you choose?"
I was shocked. I must not let Jingjing know this! This little witch is really too cunning. But I always take soft measures and not hard ones. If you force me, I won't take it.
I opened the car door, turned around and left, saying, "Go ahead and say it! I will never talk to you again." Then I strode back to my car.
Xu Shu saw me coming back and asked me, "What did you say to my sister? You two are so close, so you guys are treating me like I don't exist, right?"
I said unhappily, "Go ask her yourself. A little witch is a little witch. I really underestimated her before!"
Xu Shu was very surprised. She pushed the door open and walked back to her car. I ignored them, started the car, and turned down the driveway.
Soon I drove to the gate of the Hua family mansion and was about to honk to indicate that I was here and asked them to open the door. Suddenly I heard Xu Shu shouting from the road above: "Tang Qian, come quickly!"
I turned around and saw that Xu Shu's car was still parked there and he hadn't gotten out of the car. I was shocked when I heard Xu Shu's anxious and panicked voice, and thought to myself, "Did something happen?"
Without thinking too much, I turned the car around, stepped on the accelerator, and rushed onto the road. I stopped the car, opened the door, and hurried to Xu Shu's car, shouting, "What happened?"
Then I saw Xu Xin covering her head and crying on the seat. Xu Shu hugged his sister, turned around and glared at me, and shouted: "Tang Qian, what did you say to her? My sister doesn't want to live anymore, she's banging her head against the car door!"
I was shocked and asked hurriedly, "What? No way?"
Xu Shu said angrily: "Come and see for yourself! If anything happens to my sister! I won't forgive you!"
I was shocked and panicked. I hurried over to check Xu Xin's head and said in a trembling voice, "Xiao Xin, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Xu Xin raised her head, her whole face was covered with tears. She sobbed and said, "Brother Tang Qian, please don't ignore me, otherwise...Xiao Xin won't be able to survive!"
My heart softened all of a sudden. I supported her body and said sadly, "Where did you hit? Does it hurt? Why are you... so stupid?"
Xu Xin cried and threw herself into my arms, tears flowing even more. She shouted, "Brother Tang Qian, I won't make trouble anymore, and I don't want you to kiss me anymore. I just beg you not to leave me... OK? Xiao Xin is so sad, really sad!"
I felt so sad that I reached out and hugged her tightly, saying softly, "No, Brother Tang Qian loves you so much, how could he ignore you? No."
As soon as I said something soft, Xu Xin cried even louder. Xu Shu at the side could only shake his head and mutter, "What an injustice! What an injustice!"
I looked at Xu Shu for help, but she ignored me and pretended not to see anything. I had no choice but to touch Xiao Xin's head and said, "Where did you bump into just now? How could you do such a stupid thing?"
Xiao Xin pointed to her forehead and said aggrievedly: "Here!"
I saw a big bump on her forehead in the hair. I felt distressed and angry, and said, "Don't do this again! Do you want to scare me and your sister to death?"
Xu Xin snuggled in my arms and cried softly, "As long as Brother Tang Qian doesn't leave me, Xiao Xin won't do anything stupid!"
I was speechless for a moment. The other meaning behind what the little witch said was that if I left her, she would do something stupid again. I was at a loss and could only say to Xu Shu: "Xu Shu, come and persuade your sister."
Xu Shu snorted and turned away, angrily saying: "Just don't leave her! What's there to persuade her about!"
The two sisters were crying and angry, and I felt very uncomfortable being caught in the middle. So I said to Xu Xin, "Okay, let's go to the hospital to check your head. It would be troublesome if there are any sequelae."
Xu Xin wiped her tears with her hand and said, "I won't go. If you agree to let me go, then we should go to Sister Jingjing's house. The time has passed and Sister Jingjing must be getting impatient."
Xu Shu turned around and looked at the bump on his sister's head, sighed, and said, "Tang Qian, you go first. I'll take my sister to the hospital."
I said, "How can that be! I'm worried. I'll call Jingjing and tell her that I'll be back later." As I was about to take out my phone to call, Xu Xin quickly stopped me and said, "Brother Tang Qian, there's really no need. It's just a small bump. It doesn't hurt anymore. Sister Jingjing must have some medicine for bruises at home. Just apply some and it will be fine."
I still insisted: "No! The head is an important part of the body. What if I get a concussion? I must go to the hospital for a check-up!"
I must go, but Xu Xin refused. After talking for a long time, Xu Shu finally couldn't help it and said, "Okay, okay, I've never seen you two so loving. Jingjing has a private doctor at home, can't you just call him over to check?"
Xu Xin was no longer sad. She found out that I was so worried about her, and she became happy instead. She broke free from my embrace, turned around and hugged her sister, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't be jealous. Brother Tang Qian actually loves you more!"
Xu Shu's face flushed red immediately. She hit her sister's hand and said angrily, "Who's jealous? Don't be disrespectful to me!"
Xu Xin laughed and said, "Sister, are you still hiding this from me? You like Brother Tang Qian, do you think I can't see it?"
Xu Shu's face turned even redder, and she said anxiously: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your mouth off, do you believe me?" As she said that, she raised her eyes and glared at me. I quickly said tactfully: "Then... let's get off!" I quickly got off the car and returned to my own car.
From behind, I could vaguely hear the little witch screaming "Ah", followed by a burst of giggles...
I sat back in the car seat, feeling a wave of emotion in my heart. The Xu sisters were both very affectionate to me. And no matter which one, they were both the most beautiful women in the world. How could I, Tang Qian, be so lucky!
I took a look at the Hua family mansion on the river bank, and felt a sudden pain in my heart. I sighed and said to myself, "Xiao Shu! Xiao Xin! I, Tang Qian, am destined to let you down in this life. If we are destined to meet again, we will wait for the next life!"
Suddenly, my cell phone rang. I took it out and saw that it was Jingjing calling: "Tang Qian! It's almost dark, what are you doing? Why haven't you arrived yet?"
Hearing Jingjing's voice, I smiled and stopped thinking about the big and small things. I said, "Are you waiting impatiently? I'm here!"
I started the car, turned off the road, and drove towards Jingjing's house...
