Push Me Away When I Come, Don't Hold Me Back When I Leave - Chapter 81

Chapter 81: The Moment of Departure

***

“Xiao Feng, and Xiao Ming, be careful on the way, call me when you get there.” Xu Yihan called out from outside the car window, while Xia Ruoming waved goodbye.

After getting her driver’s license, Xia Ruoming immediately bought a Porsche Macan, costing over 500,000 yuan, not too expensive but very practical. When Xia Ruoming called to ask if Xu Fengwu wanted to ride in her car to registration, Xu Yihan was actually very hesitant, worried about such a young person driving such a long distance alone.

But since Xu Fengwu insisted on riding with Xia Ruoming after hearing the news, Xu Yihan had no choice but to agree, and instructed Xu Fengwu to call her periodically.

After helping Xu Fengwu load her luggage into the car, Xia Ruoming also opened the back door for Xu Fengwu. As Xu Fengwu got into the car, a delicate hand reached out to help pull her in.

Only then did Xu Fengwu realize there was another person in the car — Chu Suhe, who was still as pure and lovely as she had been at the gathering.

Before coming to Xu Fengwu’s doorstep, Xia Ruoming had already picked up Chu Suhe.

Unlike Luo Qingxuan’s hostile gaze toward Jiang Ruhua that practically wrote “mortal enemies” on her face, Chu Suhe’s gaze toward Xu Fengwu was full of gentleness, that kind of tender warmth seemed genuine.

Although neither had explicitly said anything, their former classmates had already paired them together, with rumors about how long Xia Ruoming and Chu Suhe had been dating.

This was exactly why Xu Fengwu felt confused, even though she knew Xu Fengwu was pursuing Xia Ruoming, why did she show no hostility at all?

Xu Fengwu wasn’t from the same world as her, and naturally couldn’t understand her thinking. Although Xia Ruoming always talked about making Chu Suhe her girlfriend, Chu Suhe had never once considered herself as such. The so-called desire to be worthy of Ruoming was just about putting in effort. Only after the incident at Yanxia Lake did she gain a tiny bit of courage.

If choosing her would make Ruoming happy, then she would be with Ruoming. If choosing Xu Fengwu would make Ruoming happy, then she would do everything in her power to help Xu Fengwu and Ruoming reconcile.

If, and only if, there were other reasons, perhaps it was a kind of composure unique to the primary wife.

“Hello, Classmate Chu, haven’t seen you since the gathering that day.” Xu Fengwu greeted politely.

“Long time no see, Classmate Xu.” Chu Suhe smiled shyly, still unable to act like an outgoing girl in front of people other than Xia Ruoming.

After saying goodbye to Xu Yihan, Xia Ruoming turned to look at Xu Fengwu: “Did you bring everything? If nothing’s left behind, let’s head out.”

Seeing Xu Fengwu nod slightly, Xia Ruoming stepped on the gas, and the car quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

Since she couldn’t get on the highway herself, she still had to pick up Xiao Qinghan. She had already informed Xiao Qinghan the day before departure.

At first, Xu Fengwu didn’t know why Xia Ruoming stopped the car at the entrance of a garden community, until Xiao Qinghan got in the car, Xu Fengwu’s face almost turned green.

What’s this about, creating an artificial battlefield right in front of her?

After getting in the car, Xiao Qinghan sat in the front passenger seat and saw the two people in the back seat, but showed no surprise, just gave a simple greeting.

“Long time no see.”

“Hello, Teacher Xiao.” Chu Suhe responded softly to Xiao Qinghan.

Hearing this, Xiao Qinghan covered her mouth and laughed lightly, shaking her head while saying to Chu Suhe: “Don’t call me Teacher Xiao anymore, I’ve already resigned, now I’m just working for your girlfriend. If you don’t mind, why not call me Sister Qinghan like your girlfriend Ruoming does?”

“Sister… Sister Qinghan, we’re not in that kind of relationship!” Chu Suhe’s face turned slightly red upon hearing Xiao Qinghan’s words, defending herself.

A big question mark appeared above Xu Fengwu’s head.

Wait, you Xiao Qinghan have already kissed Xia Ruoming, more than once, and now you’re calling Chu Suhe Xia Ruoming’s girlfriend, what are you trying to do, act virtuous and magnanimous in front of Xia Ruoming? Such scheming! So calculating!

Ever since discovering that Li Jing was thoroughly 24-karat pure green tea without sugar, Xu Fengwu now saw everyone as green tea.

But when Xia Ruoming heard Xiao Qinghan’s words, her heart felt a slight pain, remembering that day at Xiao Qinghan’s house when Xiao Qinghan gave her a box of dried flowers, telling her that what she wanted to say was in the flower language.

The flower language of the purple baby’s breath 【Willing to become a supporting role in love】 jumped before her eyes. Although Xia Ruoming didn’t know if this was the flower language Xiao Qinghan meant to use, she could never bring herself to ask either way.

Even Asahina Yui wouldn’t actively ask Takigawa Haneko, do you really want to be second?

How could that be possible!

Unless someone’s emotional intelligence was as low as volleyball players! Are there really volleyball players in this world?

“If you keep denying it like this, be careful your girlfriend might get stolen by someone else. After all, Ruoming is talented and beautiful, there are quite a few girls who like her.” Xiao Qinghan rested her chin on her hand, saying carelessly, “If this drags on any longer, I might even make a move myself.”

“You’re the quickest to make a move in the whole world, and you’re still putting on an act here?” Xu Fengwu complained in her heart.

“Ruoming… would be quite well-matched with Teacher Xiao.” Chu Suhe buried her head even lower, saying softly.

“…” One sentence left Xiao Qinghan silent for a long while, the atmosphere in the car suddenly became strange. After a long time, Xiao Qinghan let out a long sigh, seemingly somewhat exasperated.

If it weren’t for Xia Ruoming liking you, if it weren’t for Xia Ruoming not being a flirtatious sea king, your girlfriend would have been stolen away long ago! My dear former class monitor, please be more mindful.

Xu Fengwu almost drove herself crazy in the car because she had imagined a drama of two green teas battling with wit and schemes in her mind, with both of them acting gentle and virtuous for Xia Ruoming, competing in acting skills, while she was the only true pure supporter of Xia Ruoming.

That feeling of possessiveness towards Xia Ruoming made her teeth itch with irritation.

When they stopped at the highway service area to rest, Xu Fengwu pulled off an indirect kiss scene with Xia Ruoming by sharing drinks.

“Ruoming, my drink tastes really good, do you want to try some?”

Seeing Xia Ruoming take the cup and drink a sip with the straw, Xu Fengwu’s little face immediately showed a trace of smugness.

But before she could be happy for a few seconds, she saw Xiao Qinghan say “Ruoming let me try some too,” then casually use the same straw to take a sip of the drink, and afterwards even passed the cup to Chu Suhe.

“It really tastes good, do you want to try too?”

Damn it, you white lotus flower! How can your skill level be so high!

She had drunk from that drink! Did Xiao Qinghan not care at all? Could it be that Xiao Qinghan wanted to indirectly kiss her too! We’re all girls, can’t you care a bit more about your image?
