Depressed wife runs with the ball

Chapter 108 How old are you?

So soon? She had thought she would be without salary for at least half a year. When she sold the house in Cuiyuan, she gave Zhou Xingzhi over 80 yuan. However, that 80 yuan was only enough to pay off part of the bank debt.

She stood at the door, not knowing what to say. Zhou Xingzhi saw her like this and thought she didn't want to go anymore. "Not leaving?"

"Let's go." Chu Yue handed him the packed bag and asked him to take it. "I'll drive later."

"Let me do it." Zhou Xingzhi was not very confident in her driving. Although there were no major problems, there were still some minor ones.

The items were delivered to the prison, but Huang Yunfu refused to meet with her daughter. She was afraid that her daughter was coming to ask her for the villa. The prison guard brought a message to Chu Yue: "How much compensation does the perpetrator have to pay?"

It doesn't matter if she doesn't want to see him. She will meet her son sooner or later.

"You can't see her, and neither can I. We can only wait for her son to come back to see her." Chu Yue felt that he had come all the way here just to give her warm clothes, but she didn't want to see him yet.

"Why do they dislike you so much?" Zhou Xingzhi couldn't understand what could have caused parents to be so cruel to their own children.

Chu Yue sighed, perhaps her birth was unnecessary. "You don't understand. My mom has never been liked by my grandparents. Maybe because of her family background, she favors boys over girls. My grandparents were always very strict with my dad, and he felt like they didn't love him. After we got married, influenced by their whispers, and with An Jie busy at the time, he gradually distanced himself from me."

Zhou Xingzhi was thoughtful. Pillow talk does have a big impact. So, it is still very important to love the right person. "Grandpa and grandma raised you very well."

"That's right. My grandparents are the best grandparents in the world, but they are too strict." If her grandparents had not passed away one after another, she would not have been depressed.

"So, should we go back to visit grandpa and grandma after the opening ceremony, just like we did last year?"

"Do you have time?" Chu Yue thought he was joking. She, the special assistant, was busy, let alone the president.

How could I not have time? I still have to prepare for the proposal. "After the opening ceremony, on such an important day, how could I not have time?"

"Important day?" Chu Yue frowned. What important day?

"It's the first anniversary, and you don't even remember it?" Now he understood why some women would be unhappy because their boyfriends didn't remember certain dates. Now he was very unhappy.

"Oh." Chu Yue thought it was something important and she was replying to Mo Xiaoxiao.

Oh? Just one? "No, on such an important day, you only have one?"

"Then...ah?" Chu Yue thought about it for a year. Then in two years, could he go back to Qucho and be a designer?

……

The Youth Art Festival went on as planned. When Chu Yue saw Teacher Yang coming, she seemed even happier than she had been the first year. After meeting him at the airport, she didn't even glance at Zhou Xingzhi. She just held the teacher's hand and chatted.

Teacher Yang was much thinner than last year, and had more white hair. When Chu Yue first saw her, she thought she was too underdressed and, worried she might be cold, rushed over to hug her and ask if she was cold.

They were so caring and concerned about each other, hugging and cuddling, but why weren't they so enthusiastic towards me? I followed them like a bodyguard, unable to get a word in.

"How are you and Mr. Zhou doing?" Teacher Yang looked at the two of them, uncertain.

"How is it? Just like that." Chu Yue looked indifferent, as if their relationship was dispensable.

Teacher Yang wanted to persuade her to go home and visit. Children and parents can't always be separated, and she also hoped that she could finally let go of the knot in her heart. Last time she came, she thought this week would be the time for her to open up, but now it seems that she is not.

"You, don't keep people hanging all the time. If you don't like someone, then don't like them. Don't be ambiguous and make people misunderstand you. Besides, at your age, you can have an open-minded relationship! Don't always stay at home painting, but learn to enjoy life." Teacher Yang watched her grow from a timid little girl, falling into depression and struggling.

"I didn't!" Chu Yue glanced back at Zhou Xingzhi. How could he be the one hanging him? How could he be so innocent? Seeing that his girlfriend finally noticed him, he opened his eyes wide and tilted his head at her.

"Teacher, after the opening ceremony tomorrow, my new work will be on display at the exhibition. Would you like to comment on it? It's the Laojun Mountain that I photographed last year." Chu Yue brought the topic back to painting.

After sending the teacher back to the hotel, Chu Yue stood at the door, holding the door handle tightly with both hands and acted coquettishly towards Zhou Xingzhi: "Hehe, can I accompany the teacher for one night? Just one night!"

"How old are you? The teacher is old and doesn't sleep much. You'll wake her up again." Zhou Xingzhi dragged her away without any hesitation.

"Stingy!" Although reluctant, he dragged her away. "How old are you? Don't you still need someone to sleep with you?" She was so angry that she blurted out in the corridor.

"We'll see each other at the opening ceremony tomorrow." Zhou Xingzhi had been patient all day. Seeing the teacher so happy, why wasn't he so happy when he saw himself?

Standing at the hotel entrance, Chu Yue didn't know why, but seemed more reluctant to see his teacher this time than when he saw him last year.

It was already late when she returned to the villa. Chu Yue used nail clippers to trim her nails. There would be children's works at the Youth Art Festival, and she would be attending with the Starlight executives tomorrow.

When Zhou Xingzhi came out of the shower, Chu Yue asked, "Did you shave?"

"After shaving, try to see if it hurts." He rubbed her face.

"Oh, you're so annoying! Let me see my nails." Chu Yue spread out his hands. Well, there were some that needed to be cut off.

"Tomorrow there will be stars, kid, you have to cut these!" She threw the nail clippers to him and let him cut them himself.

Zhou Xingzhi looked at hers and saw that she hadn't finished cutting her hair yet, so he took her hand and sat beside the bed to help her trim it.

"You didn't say much to me today, and all you had in your eyes was Teacher Yang." Thinking that his girlfriend hadn't even looked at him straight in the eye the entire day, he still felt unhappy.

"I told you! Before I went out this morning, I asked you if the clothes you wore were suitable for meeting the teacher, and whether you looked like a good student. At noon, I asked you if the teacher had eaten, and confirmed with you several times when the teacher's plane would land. And when the exhibition was being set up, I took a photo and sent it to you on WeChat, asking if the painting looked good and whether the teacher would find any problems when he came. He said a lot." Chu Yue lay on the bed and let him cut her nails.

"The only thing you told me today that wasn't about the teacher was how bitter my coffee was when you tried it at breakfast this morning."

"How is that possible? I just asked you if you shaved?"

"That's just two sentences." After cutting her hair, he started to trim his own.

"As a CEO, why are you always arguing about these things? I can't just talk to you, and you're meeting so many people today."

"It would be best if I could hide you and hold you in my hand." Zhou Xingzhi muttered.

"What?" Chu Yue didn't hear clearly. Zhou Xingzhi covered her with the quilt, held out his hands to show her, and said, "It's all cut. Take a look?" A pair of large hands appeared before her like claws. She imitated the way her grandfather checked her nails when she was a child, spreading them out and examining each finger one by one. Her fingers were thin and slender, with distinct joints. The veins on the back of her hands were faintly visible, and the blue veins contained strong veins.

These hands have been wandering over my body for several nights. Thinking of this, I suddenly couldn't bear to look at them and flung them aside. "Uh...Okay, sleep." I grabbed the quilt and covered my head.

"After the opening ceremony, we will go to Haicheng. Would you like to pick out some particularly nice clothes to take with you?" Zhou Xingzhi pulled the quilt down a little to let her head out.

"It's so cold, just keep warm. Besides, when I go to visit my grandparents, I just need to dress nicely. Oh, time to go to bed!" Chu Yue turned around, not wanting to talk nonsense with him anymore.

Zhou Xingzhi threw back the covers, climbed onto the bed, and turned off the bedside lamp. "Just don't wear that black down jacket of yours. Then in the photos, only your face will be visible."
