The Queen of Romance: A Summer of Sweet Classics

Chapter 307

Poppy was sweating profusely in pain all the time in the taxi.She didn't know how to straighten the bones, so she returned to Jiang's house with one arm in her arms. When Jiang Mian came out of the study, she was startled when she saw her, and hurriedly called the family doctor. After straightening the bones, she helped Poppy On the bed, after examining Poppy's face, he pondered and said, "Didn't you just go out for a walk, how did it become like this?"

Poppy was silent for a moment, but still answered, "I accidentally ran into the Chu family."

"It is said that Young Master Chu is very fond of a newcomer named A Liang recently." Jiang Mian thought for a while, looked at Poppy and asked, "She is also here, right?"

Poppy lowered her eyelids, silently expressing her acquiescence.Jiang Mian sighed softly, stroked Poppy's hair, and said softly: "Okay, don't think too much. It's already so late, let's go to sleep first."

Poppy did not sleep soundly that night.

She had a dull pain in her arm, and she was thinking about things, tossing and turning until dawn before falling asleep.After waking up the next day, Jiang Mian was nowhere to be seen. After asking, she found out that she had gone to Chu Xing.

Poppy was a little surprised by the maid's answer: "Why are you looking for Chu Xing?"

"Missy heard people tell what happened last night this morning, and she was very angry with that A Liang's actions. The eldest lady said that A Liang did something wrong, but made the second lady of the Jiang family be seen as a joke. No matter what happened to the Jiang family , and there is no such thing as swallowing one's anger."

Poppy stood where she was, speechless for a while.

Although Poppy stayed at the Jiang family these days, she always took a casual attitude towards the people and affairs of the Jiang family.Whether it was Jiang Mian who came to chat with her or take care of food and daily life, although Poppy thought she was considerate, she always believed that she existed there for a purpose. The etiquette thanked her thoughtfully, but the emotional aspect was still obviously very alienated.Every day, her activities are still in a state of her own way, and Jiang Mian even learned that she was expelled from the Chu family, and it was through other people's mouths the next day, not Poppy herself.

So Poppy learned from the maid that Jiang Mian had gone to Chu's house, and she was dazed for a long time before she came to her senses and asked, "How long have you been there?"

"It's been over an hour."

When Poppy arrived at Chu's house, the conversation between Jiang Mian and Chu Xing was coming to an end.

Jiang Mian obviously didn't get the desired result, although she was smiling, it was a little unnatural.A Liang was also sitting there beside him, fiddling with the end of his hair with his fingers, although he didn't speak, the corners of his eyes and brows were full of arrogance.

Over the years, Poppy has never seen Chu Xingken chatting with a half-baked person for more than an hour.She could probably outline the treatment Jiang Mian received this time, nothing more than being left alone for more than an hour, only to have a few words before being dismissed by Chu Xing and refusing to apologize, and so on.

Poppy walked into the living room as if no one was around, held Jiang Mian's hand, and led her out.With a soft "click" behind him, Chu Xing put down the tea and said, "Stop."

He spoke calmly, but it contained a deterrent meaning that made people unconsciously obey.Sure enough, Poppy stopped for a while, but soon pulled Jiang Mian out again.Before crossing the threshold, Ah Liang made another voice, full of sarcasm: "Didn't Sister Poppy say she would never go back to Chu's house? What is it to barge in now?"

Poppy kept on stepping, pulling Jiang Mian into the car.No one could be seen in the rearview mirror, and neither Chu Xing nor A Liang walked out of the living room.Poppy waited until she got out of Chu's house before looking away, and when she turned her head again, she found that half of the smile on Jiang Mian's face had collapsed.

Poppy opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Poppy is not very good at comforting people.She stayed in the Chu family for ten years, and many things were inadvertently omitted in the process of growing up.Poppy had no friends when she was in the Chu family, and Chu Xing did not allow her to make too many friends, no matter if they were of the same sex or the opposite sex. When Poppy first came to Chu's house at the age of 12, she had a good friend named Yanyan. Not long after that, Yanyan was sent to other places.

From beginning to end, there was only one person with whom she had the best relationship, Chu Xing.When others are sad, I hope that the person who comes to hug and comfort will not be her poppy, but Chu Xing does not need to be comforted at all.As for Poppy herself, she was pampered and pampered by Chu Xing before she was an adult, so she rarely felt so-called sad.Later, when this kind of feeling appeared and increased, I felt that this kind of thing was not humane, and I didn't need it and couldn't be comforted.

After the car was quiet for a long time, Poppy slowly said, "You shouldn't have come here today, Sister."

It was the first time she called Ajie, Jiang Mian was slightly startled, and when Poppy continued to speak, she had a completely irrelevant tone: "Chu Xing has always defended his weaknesses. But the one he likes the most, no matter what he does. , he can indulge. Sometimes he indulges too much and acts too much, he doesn't care, but he will help to clean up the mess properly. Ah Liang is not the first, and will not be the last. You at this time Even if I went to the Chu family ten times, the result would still be the same."

"I first came to Chu's house ten years ago, and it's very similar to A Liang's situation now. I also suppressed Li Zhi's limelight in the first few days, and then did a lot of things to Li Zhi arrogantly. Chu Xing has been in front of many times, but he has not been punished. I didn’t understand it at the time, and I lived blatantly and freely every day, so I offended a lot of people unconsciously. But the offense is the offense, and no one dared to really retaliate for many years The same is true for Ah Liang now, no matter what kind of fuss she is, Chu Xing will not do anything to her before he dislikes her. But when the day is disliked, what you owe will always be returned. So you don’t need to worry about anything.”

After a while, Jiang Mian tentatively asked, "What is the reason for the disgust?"

"You actually want to ask, what did I do to get expelled from Chu Xing, right?" Poppy propped her chin on the edge of the car window, turned her head and smiled at Jiang Mian, " Actually, I don’t know either. Somehow, the reasonable things I did in the past are wrong now. In the past two years, I’ve smelled signs of falling out of favor, and I’ve been doing things with my tail between my legs, but it still doesn’t work. Chu Xing just thinks I’m an eyesore Well, what can I do."

"... What are the signs?"

Poppy turned her head away again, played with the tassels on the back of the chair in front of her, and said absently: "One year when Chu Xing celebrated his birthday, I went to the border to carry out a mission, and I specially brought back a piece of rough stone, and I sent a piece of uncut Burmese jade that was cut open inside to me. It was okay when Chu Xing took it, but on the third day I saw Lu Ming leave the collection room with the jade box. When I asked, it was indeed Chu Xing who gave him the whole piece of jade. Later, it was my birthday, so I said hello in advance, watched Chu Xing call one by one, and finally made that night free, but I waited all night, and I never saw him come back. The next day I decided very angrily I ran away from home, but I just happened to meet him walking in from the door. He smelled of that intoxicating perfume, which was very special. It was a perfume smell that only a nightclub in the east of the city had. I thought he There was some must-go get-together that night, and later I learned that he was the host, so I found someone to go to the nightclub to relax when I felt that I hadn’t been there for a long time.”

Poppy wrapped the tassels around her hands, let go, and said slowly: "When I was pampered and cared for like A Liang is now, this kind of thing would never happen. So two years ago When similar incidents happen again and again, I know that I am getting closer and closer to being rejected. But what can I do? I have tried everything I can think of, and since none of them work, then It’s just really impossible.”
