The Love of Passerby A

Su Xiangran looked up at the person who came - her dinner partner Zhao Wenyu, frowned, and was about to speak.

Zhao Wenyu grabbed her shoulder and said, "Madam, what is your relationship with our Xiang Ran?"

"We are former colleagues." The woman who had been somewhat arrogant before became less arrogant under Zhao Wenyu's gaze.

"So we're just colleagues!" Zhao Wenyu said with a knowing look, "Then the benefits of your company should be very good!"

"It's okay! It's okay!" the woman laughed.

Zhao Wenyu went on to say, "It's not the same for our Xiangran. She can't live a simple life. For a lady like me to earn the lowest salary and worry about the company's top management, my Xiangran can't do that."

"Look! Our Xiangran wants delicious food, silk and satin, and she has to spend a lot of time preparing everything for her food, clothing, housing and transportation." Zhao Wenyu didn't even give the woman a chance to continue. "So, Xiangran and you basically have nothing in common.

So I think you should not come to her again in the future, after all, she doesn’t value the happiness you want to promote to her.”

As he spoke, Zhao Wenyu's eyes were the same as Su Xiangran's just now, scanning the woman's bruised wrist again.

The woman was so ashamed and angry at the look in her eyes that she covered her wrist and said harshly, "Xiao Su! Rich men are unreliable. You should learn from your ex-husband's lesson!"

"Yes, yes, yes! You are right." Su Xiangran answered cooperatively, "So take your ordinary husband who abuses you, stay away from me, and don't come here again."

The woman glared at Su Xiangran, then quickly pushed the door open and left.

The person left, but Zhao Wenyu did not let go of his hand on Su Xiangran's shoulder, and even showed signs of hugging her from behind.

"What are you doing! Let me go." Su Xiangran twisted her shoulders, trying to break free from Zhao Wenyu's arms.

"Let me hug you. I'm so tired today." Zhao Wenyu began his show of weakness today. "Xiang Ran! When can you completely rely on me? I'm actually very reliable."

"If you rely on water, it will dry up; if you rely on a mountain, it will fall down." Su Xiangran said seriously, "No matter what our relationship is, even if that day comes, I will not let myself completely rely on another person.

This makes one feel insecure and the other person is too tired, so it won’t last long.”

Zhao Wenyu was a little surprised. Su Xiangran's ideas seemed different from his own.

He thought love was care and protection, and holding an umbrella for the one he loved in the wind and rain.

But what Su Xiangran wants is someone who can walk together under an umbrella in the wind and rain, and who can rely on each other, rather than just being protected unilaterally.

"What are you thinking about! Let me go. Your time for seeking comfort today has expired." Su Xiangran pushed Zhao Wenyu behind her unhappily.

"So you don't like me, right!" Zhao Wenyu asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time.

Things have changed. The man who always planned to boil the frog in warm water, what happened today? Let me put it directly.

Su Xiangran did not answer his question directly, but asked back: "Why do you like me?"

"I like you, I really like you." Zhao Wenyu blurted out, "If I didn't like you, I wouldn't spend all my meal time with you, even though I have to attend social events every day.

I am usually such a cold and hard person, but in order to gain your pity, I play the victim in front of you every day.

I used every opportunity to get close to you. When I saw you and your ex-husband attending a banquet, I didn't dare to ask any more questions and could only stare at you, for fear that you would hate me.

I don’t know, I really, really like you and only you.”

Su Xiangran: Damn it, I just nagged him and he got so angry.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhao Wenyu inevitably became nervous: "Did I scare you?"

"I'm not scared." Su Xiangran said stubbornly, "I'm just a little shocked."

"So what do you think?" Zhao Wenyu asked cautiously.

"I just had some guesses before, and you confirmed it for me now. I haven't thought it through yet!" Su Xiangran was very frank with him, "But, your move is a bit too big! In order to get close to me, you even bought a house to become my neighbor.

You don't go home every day, aren't you afraid that your mother will have a problem with you?"

"Xiang Ran, I need to make it clear to you again: I am an adult." Zhao Wenyu held his forehead with his hand, "I have the ability and freedom to live the life I want and choose the person I want."

Ah yes! Not everyone is like the original male protagonist Zhang Juncheng: listen to your mother and don’t let her be sad.

Zhao Wenyu: My mom knows that I have someone I like, and she is secretly happy! How could she object?

"So what's your answer?" Zhao Wenyu asked Su Xiangran again.

"Then let me ask you a question, and you have to answer me honestly." Su Xiangran rolled her eyes and asked, "Did you send someone to monitor me?"

Zhao Wenyu touched his nose and said, "When I was away, I did arrange for someone to protect your safety."

"Sometimes, sometimes not, right!" Su Xiangran gave a definition, "Okay! Then I declare: you are the spare tire."

"I'm trying to protect you." Zhao Wenyu still wanted to fight back.

Su Xiangran spread her hands and said: "No one likes to be watched. Even lovers need to give each other space, so backup boyfriend, you better do your best!"
