Chapter 3398

~7 min read 1,398 words

One day in May, Yu Ruizhi came to Baozhou. He didn't call Su Xinghui beforehand and came directly to Su Xinghui's office. Su Xinghui was handling official business in the office. Seeing him come, he said very pleasantly, "Brother Yu, why didn't you call me when you came?"

Yu Ruizhi said, "It's nothing. Anyway, I'm going to stay in Baozhou for a few days this time, so I came to see if you were here. If you weren't, it wouldn't matter; there are still a few days."

Yin Zhe poured tea for Yu Ruizhi and went out. Su Xinghui sat opposite Yu Ruizhi.

He saw that Yu Ruizhi's mood seemed a bit low, so he asked with a smile, "Brother Yu, what's wrong? You seem a bit unhappy."

Yu Ruizhi said dully, "Ruoqiu is getting married."

This sudden news stunned Su Xinghui. Yu Ruoqiu was getting married? He didn't know what he was feeling, but he quickly adjusted his mindset and said with a smile, "Is that so? That's a good thing. Blessings to her. When is she getting married? Who is the lucky groom?"

Yu Ruizhi looked up at Su Xinghui and said, "Are you really happy for her?"

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Of course I'm happy for her. She's thirty-two, right? It's time for her to get married!"

Yu Ruizhi gritted his teeth and said, "You bastard, you know she's thirty-two! Then you must also know why she got married so late, right?"

Su Xinghui was speechless. Of course, he knew why Yu Ruoqiu got married so late. He wasn't a fool; he could see that Yu Ruoqiu had always refused to accept others because she liked him.

But how could he accept Yu Ruoqiu's love? That wouldn't be fair to anyone. If he accepted it, wouldn't he be a living scumbag? That would be a hurt to Lu Xiaoya, to Yu Ruoqiu, and to many people. That was something he couldn't do.

He couldn't help but think of Xue Qin, Xia Zhu, He Xiaofeng, Wang Liu, Xin Jing, and Liu Xin. These women all had feelings for him, but he couldn't accept them, so he let them down one by one.

But could this be called letting them down? Or not? He was lost in thought for a moment.

Yu Ruizhi continued to curse Su Xinghui. He didn't know how long he had been cursing; he was babbling like a shrew cursing in the street.

Yu Ruizhi said, "... The person she is marrying is an officer in my brother's army. He is the same age as her this year and is also the descendant of a general. He has always liked Ruoqiu and waited for her for more than ten years without saying anything. They are getting married this August 1st. Are you happy..."

Su Xinghui was speechless. He just looked up at Yu Ruizhi. He knew that Yu Ruizhi had always been very clear about Yu Ruoqiu's feelings for him, just that he hadn't said anything usually.

However, hearing about the situation of the man Yu Ruizhi mentioned, it should be quite good, which made Su Xinghui feel a little relieved.

Yu Ruizhi got up and said, "Let's go, you accompany me to drink. If you don't get drunk today, I won't spare you!"

Su Xinghui knew that at this time, he had to accompany Yu Ruizhi to drink, so he got up and called Lu Xiaoya, saying that Yu Ruizhi had come and he was going to accompany him to eat and wouldn't be home for dinner. Lu Xiaoya agreed without saying anything else and hung up the phone.

Yu Ruizhi had come, so she was naturally relieved.

The two went to a small restaurant, asked for a private room, ordered a few dishes and two bottles of wine, and they began to drink together.

Yu Ruizhi drank a glass of wine and said to Su Xinghui, "You bastard, do you know? Ruoqiu is a princess in our Yu family. No one dares to treat her badly. But in this life, she has poured her heart and soul into you, this bastard, and cried for you. You are the only one!"

Yu Ruizhi roared this last sentence at Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui looked at Yu Ruizhi in surprise. Yu Ruoqiu had cried for him?

Yu Ruizhi said, "What? You think I'm lying to you? She has cried for you several times, not because you don't like her. Once was when you fainted during the flood fighting, and once was when that gunman wanted to assassinate you. She said she was worried about you, so she cried. She didn't dare to cry in front of others, so she only cried in front of me, her second brother, because only I knew her heart!"

Su Xinghui couldn't help but be shocked. Yu Ruoqiu's deep feelings made him feel ashamed. But what could he do?

Su Xinghui picked up a glass of wine and didn't toast with Yu Ruizhi. He tilted his neck and drank it in one gulp. He only hated himself for not being able to get drunk. If he could get drunk, he would definitely drink until he was drunk today.

Yu Ruizhi also drank a glass in one gulp. He said again, "She was also happy many times. When your son was born, when you were promoted, when you made so many great achievements, she was as happy as a child. I know this is something without results, but I don't know what to do. I feel very happy that she can be so happy for a while."

Su Xinghui was speechless and could only drink glass after glass.

Yu Ruizhi was also drinking while talking about those things about Yu Ruoqiu. Only then could Su Xinghui understand how much Yu Ruoqiu had done for him.

As long as Su Xinghui had a need, Yu Ruoqiu could take out all her money to help Su Xinghui. Half of the investment Yu Ruizhi made in Su Xinghui's place was Yu Ruoqiu's money, but Yu Ruoqiu never let Yu Ruizhi say it. Now Yu Ruizhi had said it all.

When Yu Ruizhi was five or six points drunk, he said, "Xinghui, I know this can't be blamed on you, but if I don't blame you, who the hell do I blame?"

Yu Ruizhi cried loudly. This was the first time Su Xinghui saw Yu Ruizhi cry. Could a tough guy like Yu Ruizhi cry? But how could he not cry? Yu Ruoqiu was his dearest little sister, but her emotional life was so bumpy. She had her life ruined by Su Xinghui!

But as he said, could this be blamed on Su Xinghui? What could Su Xinghui do? With Yu Ruizhi's moral concepts, he certainly knew that Su Xinghui was doing the right thing. Su Xinghui never gave any woman other than Lu Xiaoya a false look. He was a good man and a real man.

He just felt sorry for his little sister. She had lived too hard for the past ten years. She watched the man she loved be someone else's husband, but she couldn't say anything. She buried everything in her heart. Because of her kindness, she was still good friends with Lu Xiaoya and treated Lu Xiaoya sincerely.

Even when Lu Xiaoya had suspected SARS, the first person to rush to the hospital to take care of Lu Xiaoya was Yu Ruoqiu. She also treated Niuniu as her own son. Why should such a kind girl suffer such a fate?

Unknowingly, Su Xinghui was also in tears. He also remembered every bit of Yu Ruoqiu. In the past, he had intentionally or unintentionally ignored these. He didn't dare to think too deeply. Yu Ruoqiu was indeed a good girl. He was afraid that if he thought too deeply, he would be attracted by Yu Ruoqiu.

How much pressure had Yu Ruoqiu endured over the years? With her family and her conditions, what kind of boy couldn't she find? It could be said that excellent boys could line up for her to choose, but she hadn't liked any of them for so many years.

How could her elders not be anxious? They almost urged Yu Ruoqiu to go on blind dates every day, wishing she would get married immediately. Yu Ruoqiu couldn't turn against them; these were her closest relatives.
