Saving Wang

Chapter 65



Chapter 65 Four-person Tour Ⅱ

Chen Kexin caught up with Yi Duanfang. Wang Weixi opened his sleepy eyes in the car and did not see Chen Kexin and Yi Duanfang. It was strange that Chen Keren’s voice was already ringing in his ear. “The two of them went to the supermarket to buy water.”

Wang Weixi nodded, and the whole car was silent. “Oh, Keren, I have a question for you.” All of a sudden, Wang Weixi said a bit gravely.

Chen Keren raised her eyebrows and waited for him to continue.

“Tell me, Lan Xiao… do you like him?”

“No.” Almost without hesitation, Chen Keren replied directly. In fact, she knew what Wang Weixi wanted to ask. She knew that what she had done was really too much, but she had always been so hopeful. It was just, now that she saw Chen Kexin looking sad, she felt a little sorry.

Wang Weixi nodded. He didn’t look at Chen Keren’s expression, because he knew that his sister-in-law must be expressionless. There was another silence in the car. Wang Weixi was wondering if he should put in a good word for Yi Duanfang, but he was afraid there was really nothing between them. Chen Keren was waiting for Wang Weixi to ask her. She waited for a long time but Wang Weixi did not speak again.

Thinking that Chen Kexin might come back soon, Wang Weixi just said a short sentence. “I was just worried that you would sacrifice your happiness for her, so I asked. I didn’t mean anything else.”

Chen Keren’s expression was blank for a moment and then suddenly understood what Wang Weixi meant. She nodded and gave a soft “hum” in response, but her heart was full of mixed feelings.

Yes, she may have really liked that excellent man, but this feeling had long since vanished. With her mother’s death, her feelings for Lan Xiao was strangled in the cradle before she knew what love was.

Chen Kexin and Yi Duanfang came back. They each had two bottles of water in their hands. Chen Kexin handed Wang Weixi a bottle and Yi Duanfang handed Chen Keren a bottle. Wang Weixi suddenly felt that this kind of picture was really beautiful.

“It’s open, you can drink it,” Yi Duanfang said a bit awkwardly.

Chen Keren paused just as she was reaching for the water, then said lightly, “Thank you.” She then began to drink the water. Wang Weixi opened the water for Chen Kexin. The two looked at each other and laughed with ridicule.

In fact, Yi Duanfang was also puzzled. Since when did he get along with Chen Keren so well? It happened that she didn’t feel at all, but he was nervous here. Hearing laughter from the back seat, Yi Duanfang found the “root” of his embarrassment. Naturally, it was his unscrupulous Wang Weixi and damn Chen Kexin.

He turned mercilessly and stared at the two people. They finally stopped their ambiguous laughter.

Chen Keren didn’t seem to notice this from beginning to end and started driving after drinking water.

Having finally woken up, Chen Kexin was no longer sleepy. She took Wang Weixi’s arm and looked out of the window quietly.

Somehow, she suddenly wanted to visit her mother’s grave.

Looking at the vast fields outside, Wang Weixi said with some emotion, “I didn’t expect there was such a place here.” Wang Weixi originally thought that there was no land except scenic spots in A City, which was full of high-rise buildings. He remembered when he first came here, he still missed the smell of the soil in his hometown. During the years of fighting outside, he seemed to have forgotten the taste of his hometown.

Yi Duanfang rolled his eyes and said, “I knew you didn’t know where Jiu Zhou is.” This road was the only way to get to Jiu Zhou. Hence, as long as people learned about Jiu Zhou, they almost knew that there was a field on this road. It was said that this field was bought by a very rich man, but for so many years, he had not built anything on this land.

Nobody knew whether he didn’t think well or whether he wanted to leave a different view for the busy city people.

Wang Weixi smiled without saying a word. Of course, he didn’t know where Jiu Zhou was. He never cared about what was in A city. He only cared about what needed attention. This was his thought and practice.

It took another half hour to get to the most prosperous snack street in Jiu Zhou.

When Chen Kexin was in college, she occasionally heard some people chattering about how delicious and cheap things in Jiu Zhou snack street were. However, she never had a chance to come to such a place.

However, to Yi Duanfang’s surprise, Chen Keren was able to find this place with good skills. He could never have imagined that Chen Keren, who returned from overseas, was so thoroughly familiar with every inch of land in his hometown. The thought that she was walking alone in the snack street made Yi Duanfang wonder why and feel stuck in his heart.

After the four of them got off the car, the most excited person was Chen Kexin. She had never been to a place like a supermarket, and it was naturally her first time here.

As a result, she flitted from one stall to another and ate all the way. Wang Weixi felt a little distressed for her stomach, but since she was in a good mood, he left her alone.

“You obviously care about it. Why do you keep a straight face every time, making people feel like you don’t care about anything?” Yi Duanfang looked at Chen Keren and suddenly asked.

Chen Keren looked at Chen Kexin and Wang Weixi walking together, being naughty and coquettish, and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but rise. It was such a slight expression, but it was caught by Yi Duanfang. At the moment they were holding a bag of hot sugar fried chestnuts.

Chen Keren’s mood today looked quite good. When she heard Yi Duanfang say this, she didn’t get a cold face. Instead, she looked at Chen Kexin bouncing up and down. She didn’t know whether to say it to Yi Duanfang or to herself. “When my mother was still in this world, my sister didn’t like to laugh as much as she does now. Although she was very cute, she always had a big miss temper. She would quarrel with me for a long time because of something. She always depended on our mother and stuck to anyone she liked, crying, laughing and making noises.”

Yi Duanfang looked at the two people nearby and listened quietly.

“After mother passed, she didn’t shed a tear, at least not in front of me. She always held me in her arms and repeated the words ‘Don’t be afraid, Keren still has a sister,’ but I knew that she couldn’t bear this kind of blow. So she began to alienate everyone, even though she always smiled at everyone and spoiled Chen Derong, but never said what she wanted. She locked herself in the room and only showed up when eating. Do you know why I want Lan Xiao to be with her so much?” Suddenly, she turned to Yi Duanfang and asked earnestly.

Yi Duanfang shook his head and said he did not know. He was still in a trance. He didn’t expect Chen Kexin to have such painful experiences.

“Because she was chosen by mother, before she committed suicide…” Chen Keren’s voice was somewhat weak as she said this.

Yi Duanfang listened carefully but did not know how to comfort Chen Keren. This was the first time, he saw the feeling of loneliness in Chen Keren’s face.

“During that time, I always thought it would be nice if Lan Xiao were there. If he were there, my sister could at least cry, at least she could have support, but then he had already gone to France.”

Chen Keren’s voice did not reflect her emotions一it was as if she was describing an unimportant past.

Yi Duanfang listened silently, unable to help but feel the fate of people. If Lan Xiao had not left at that time, he and Chen Kexin were childhood friends and liked each other. It would be a natural thing to be together in the future. Now they did not become lovers, which was blamed on Lan Xiao.

“Keren, what are you whispering about?” All of a sudden, Chen Kexin, who was holding a cotton candy, cried out to them curiously.

In the sunshine, she held up pink cotton candy and smiled happily. It looked like a painting. Wang Weixi stood beside her with a radiant smile.

Chen Keren’s expression returned to its usual expressionlessness. Yi Duanfang yawned and said, “Nothing.” He naturally knew that Chen Keren didn’t want to talk about what she had said, and he was surprised that she would even say this to him today, having never said this to others.

However, he was a wise man and knew what to ask and what not to ask, so in the end, he just concluded Chen Keren’s words carelessly.
