Chapter 140 Qin Huairu's Thoughts
The next morning, He Yuzhu woke up from a deep sleep and felt a stabbing pain in his head, as if he had been hit by a heavy object.
He rubbed his eyes, looked around, and was relieved to find that he was lying in his familiar bed. However, he could not remember how he got home last night.
At this time, Liu Xiuxiu came in and saw that He Yuzhu had woken up. She smiled with relief. She said softly, "Are you awake? Go wash up. I have already prepared the meal. Come and eat."
He Yuzhu heard Liu Xiuxiu's words, and although he had a severe headache, he did not dwell too much on what happened last night. He nodded, struggled to get up, and walked towards the bathroom. The cold water washed over his face, making him feel a little better.
After washing his face, He Yuzhu walked out of the bathroom and saw that Liu Xiuxiu had already brought the food to the table. He walked over, sat down, and began to eat in silence.
Liu Xiuxiu noticed that he frowned from time to time, and it was obvious that he had a severe headache. She asked with concern: "Do you still have a headache? Why don't you send me to work today? I can go by myself."
He Yuzhu raised his head and looked at Liu Xiuxiu's concerned eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He shook his head and smiled comfortingly: "It's okay, I'll be fine after dinner. Besides, it's on the way to give you a ride, it's okay."
Liu Xiuxiu looked at He Yuzhu's persistence and didn't say much. She just silently poured him a glass of water and placed it in front of him.
The two of them ate quietly like this. After the meal, he endured the discomfort and sent Liu Xiuxiu to work. On the way, Liu Xiuxiu kept reminding him to take care of his health, and He Yuzhu agreed one by one.
Qin Huairu was also preparing to go out to work. When she saw He Yuzhu's concern for Liu Xiuxiu, a ripple appeared in her heart, and she followed He Yuzhu closely.
But when her eyes swept across the happy smile on Liu Xiuxiu's face, it was like a sharp knife, piercing deeply into her heart.
She recalled the news of He Yuzhu's promotion yesterday, and the jealousy in her heart grew like weeds, almost drowning her.
Qin Huairu stood there, watching the two people's backs gradually go away with complicated eyes. Suddenly, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. This smile was mixed with jealousy, unwillingness and a hint of inexplicable expectation, making it difficult to understand her true thoughts.
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai walked out of the room. He noticed the malicious smile on Qin Huairu's face and was a little surprised. He frowned and asked directly, "Qin Huairu, what are you thinking about?"
Qin Huairu's heart tightened when she heard Yi Zhonghai's question. She quickly retracted her thoughts, turned around and said to Yi Zhonghai: "Uncle, I was thinking about what you taught me yesterday. However, I feel like I forgot some parts. Can you tell me more about it?"
As she spoke, she showed an expression of humility and seeking advice on her face, trying to hide her unusual emotion just now.
After hearing Qin Huairu's request, Yi Zhonghai's doubts temporarily dissipated. He felt that he might have really misread Qin Huairu's expression.
So, he collected his thoughts and began to carefully explain yesterday's content to Qin Huairu. As he spoke, he gestured with his hands, fearing that Qin Huairu would not understand at all.
Qin Huairu also showed unprecedented seriousness. She stared at Yi Zhonghai's lip movements, afraid of missing any details. Her brows were sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, obviously trying to understand and digest this knowledge.
When the other people in the courtyard saw this scene, they all smiled. They were happy for Qin Huairu for studying so hard. At the same time, they also admired Yi Zhonghai's selfless teaching.
"The uncle is a really nice person. He teaches Qin Huairu so selflessly." Someone exclaimed softly.
"Yes, the uncle is worthy of being the uncle in our hearts and deserves our respect." Another person echoed.
"It's not easy for Qin Huairu. She's still thinking about studying during such a short journey." Someone else sighed.
However, at this moment, someone suddenly reminded: "Hey, stop talking, or Jia Zhang will hear it and it might be misinterpreted as you guys just watching the fun."
Everyone was silent when they heard this and changed the subject. They all knew that since Jia Dongxu's death, Jia Zhang's personality had become even more eccentric, and if they were not careful, they might be accused by her for no reason. So everyone avoided the topic of Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu and started talking about other things.
