Chapter 87: Cinderella and Trash Prince Episode 8
Although it's already 10 o'clock, the food street is still brightly lit with people coming and going, which is exactly the busiest time of the day.
Su Luo said pitifully, everyone was eager to sweep away all the good things on the entire street for her to eat her fill. However, they also knew that she couldn't eat much at night, so they finally found a big restaurant with a good environment and ordered a private room. Apart from the dishes Su Luo specifically asked for, they also ordered some signature dishes, which were more than enough.
The dishes were served quickly and soon everyone had a full plate. Everyone picked up their chopsticks, poured beer and drinks, and started eating.
Su Luo also put on a pair of disposable gloves and focused on dealing with the little lobster. Normally, she was quite particular about her health, but occasionally being a bit reckless wasn't a big deal.
Lin Chenghua sat opposite her, completely ignoring the food on the table, just staring at her. Seeing her eat with relish, sometimes like a little cat, narrowing her eyes and looking intoxicated, sometimes like a child licking her fingers through gloves, she couldn't help but smile, thinking she was delicate, cute and lovely.
He didn't know why he had so many metaphors and adjectives, but he was happy to look at her like this, couldn't get enough of it, as if life had no other desires besides this.
After eating a few, Su Luo removed her gloves, feeling a bit uncomfortable. It was too spicy and numbing, and she couldn't help but slightly open her mouth to take in some air, trying to cool down her tongue.
An unintentional move, but in Lin Chenghua's eyes it became an extremely enchanting scene, almost transforming into a wolf, pouncing on those red lips and pink tongue, as if wanting to swallow her whole.
Although he had hugged and kissed her before, why couldn't he recall what it felt like? Lin Chenghua was very melancholic.
However, for now, it's just a thought, as he is no longer his own person.
Suoluo still doesn't know that a certain scumbag has transformed into a rascal and is fooling around with her, otherwise she would probably be furious.
"Yao Yao, is there anything else I can help with? Anyway, I'm free now, so just let me know if you need any manpower."
"With your small arms and legs, you're still quite strong! However, there's one thing I need your help with." Chen Yaoyao sat down beside her, making a gesture as if to pinch her.
"What's up, you say." This girl is too fond of using her hands and feet.
"Be my bridesmaid for me, I'm still missing one!" This was Chen Yaoyao's plan after a long time of secret discussion, and she only mentioned it so late because she was afraid that the other would refuse.
"This... isn't good, is it?" Su Luo would have agreed to anything else without hesitation, but this matter really put her in a difficult position. She knew Yao's kind intentions and was touched by them, but how could she say "herself" had also been divorced before, and being someone's bridesmaid wasn't quite suitable.
"If there's nothing wrong, then it's settled. Besides you, Vivian, Xiaojia, Yingying are all here, and also one of my university classmates, but she'll arrive on the 1st. I've already ordered the bridesmaid dresses and sent them to be dry cleaned, tomorrow you can all come try them on, if they don't fit, then you can help everyone make adjustments."
"Yes, Xiaogu, don't be modest, you've never been a bridesmaid before, it's a lot of fun, we'll block the door and grab red envelopes together, and then split them evenly later!"
"If I weren't already a married woman, I'd want to participate too. Xiaogu, don't be polite, it's said that the groomsmen are all tall, rich and handsome, they're Duanxuan's university classmates."
Everyone also advised persuasively.
Lin Chenghua suddenly became vigilant, what a rich and handsome guy, there's something fishy! At weddings, people love to match the best man and maid of honor, he knew that! Many best men and maids of honor ended up becoming the bride and groom themselves, no way! Can't let Xiaogu go, she's too honest, if someone cheats her, she won't even know! And those games, she has no experience with them, if things go wrong, she'll be taken advantage of! No way! Absolutely not!
"Xiaogu doesn't want to participate, then forget it. Yaoyao, you have so many friends, can't you just find another one?"
Su Luo didn't think Lin Chengyuan would come out and help her, but after thinking about it, she also knew what was going on.
That night he paid too much attention to her, his eyes never leaving her body. What infatuation, it's nothing more than this.
If he could be consistent with Yang Ningning, no matter what she became, it would make her admire him a little. Now, eating from the bowl while looking at the pot, makes her look down on him even more.
Others also guessed what was going on and couldn't help but take a wait-and-see attitude, but they didn't expose the truth for Lin Chenghua's sake.
"No way, I must have Xiaogu as my bridesmaid. If she's not there, I won't get married! You guys figure it out!" Chen Yaoyao said fiercely, and then provocatively glanced at Lin Chenghuai before turning to Su Luoluo: "Duan Xuan has a roommate who just returned from studying in Europe, you two must have some common topics to talk about. I'll introduce you to each other later."
She is happy to see scumbags get into trouble ahahahaha.
Su Luo was speechless, and could only stiffen her scalp and agree: "Alright, I won't do anything else. At that time, your makeup styling will be left to me, I guarantee you'll look beautiful."
"Xiaogu you tai hao le! Lai, bo er yi ge!"
Translation: "You're too good, Xiaogu! Come on, give me a kiss!"
"Xiaogu, when will you also teach us some fashionable beauty tips? I can warm up the bed!"
"I can give you a monkey!"
The girls all went crazy, teasing Su Luo until he was overjoyed, and didn't even give a certain someone a glance.
Lin Chenghua felt maliciousness from all over the world, not all of them were small, how could they all treat him like this! But he was powerless to do anything about it. Even if Xiaogu went on blind dates or got married, what could he say? What position did he have to speak from?
Thinking of this, it's bitter in mouth and even more bitter in heart, more bitter than that plate of bitter melon on the table.
Everyone was delighted except one person, this midnight snack was finally finished. Duan Xuan paid the bill and they all left together.
This is a pedestrian street, it's not very long. When everyone drives in, they stop at the parking lot outside and walk together to get through.
After walking a few steps, I saw a crowd of people gathered in front, blocking the road. There were men's curses, women's wails, children's cries, and onlookers' pointing and commenting, making quite a commotion.
"What's going on?" someone asked.
"Caught a cheating husband!" A nearby street vendor excitedly whispered to everyone.
"It can't be, this isn't a hotel or a restaurant, it's a place where people come and go." But everyone didn't believe him.
"You can't fool me!" The aunt was unhappy, feeling that her authority had been questioned. "I saw it from start to finish, clear as day! That man is an outsider, on a business trip in C City, and his wife suspected him of having an affair, so she brought their child to secretly follow him. As it turned out, the man was indeed not decent, eating alone but still ordering a private room, which isn't unusual, but what's key is that a poorly dressed young woman selling wine also went in for half a day without coming out. The wife waited anxiously outside and then burst in with their child, and they really did see the two of them entwined, with clothes disheveled! Unacceptable! What woman could tolerate this? Of course, she fought back first, and that young woman was also fierce, insisting she was just doing her job and that the man had harassed her. If he continued to pester her, she would sue the couple. The shop owner thought they were affecting business, so he coaxed them out. When the young woman wanted to leave, the wife wouldn't let her, and they started fighting again, grabbing hair and clothes, quite intense! Finally, after much effort, they were persuaded to stop. The wife wasn't afraid of losing face and shouted everything out loud, asking everyone to judge for themselves. This has been going on for over 10 minutes, and there's still no resolution. Onlookers have changed shifts several times already. That shop owner also has a problem, not running his business properly, hiring young women to sell wine in those clothes, or else this wouldn't have happened."
The aunt's narrative was clear and logical, her analysis was thorough, and everyone understood it at once.
Suoluo laughed.
What is a pig opponent?
What is meant by "no injustice, no gathering of heads"?
What is called "unintentionally planting willows and becoming a shade"?
What is meant by "easy come, easy go"?
That's it!
That big mom's little girl is undoubtedly Yang Ningning. In the book, there is a section where she has a fight with Lin Chenghuai and goes to her best friend for help. However, her best friend is also unreliable, and they both get cheated while looking for work. They were told it was a hostess job, but in reality, they had to wear maid costumes to promote beer as "beer girls". Because they paid the agency fee and didn't want to do the job, they ended up with nothing. Her mom lost her job at the Lin's house due to her relationship issues, and their family income stopped. They couldn't even afford to pay rent or buy food. In desperation, she had to swallow her pride and go back to work. As a result, she encountered a customer who was being unreasonable and wanted her to drink with him. She refused, and the two of them started pulling each other's hair. Before things got clear, the customer's wife rushed in and hit her without distinguishing right from wrong. Fortunately, Lin Chenghuai happened to see this and saved her again, and they reunited once more. Lin Chenghuai was also charmed by her maid outfit and insisted on playing a game of "shy shy play" with her.
She's indeed the female lead! Her ability to cause trouble and get rescued by the male lead and his partner is simply divine! Su Luo exclaimed. She had originally planned to rest for two days, waiting for Yao Yao's wedding to end before going to meet her, but she didn't expect her to be delivered right to her doorstep.
"Shall we just wait here, who knows when it will end? Or let's squeeze through," Suoluo suggested. Although waiting here would eventually lead to a good view, she wanted to make a quick decision and go back to sleep beautifully.
"Tired? Then let's get through it, you be careful and follow me." Lin Chenghua continued to sell well.
"Yao Yao, how are you?"
"We won't wait either, let's squeeze in, everyone be careful."
A group of people blended into the crowd one after another.
Onlookers all crowded to the center, Su Luo's hands and feet were quick and nimble, following the direction of the crowd, without much effort she quickly shook off Lin Chengyuan and squeezed into the innermost circle of onlookers.
"It's done, Xiaogu has been squeezed in, I can't see her anymore. Who among you saw her? Xiaogu? Xiaogu, where are you? Respond!" Lin Chenghua shouted loudly as he looked around frantically.
"How do you look at people? Everyone quickly find a place, Xiaogu was squeezed away, France definitely doesn't have so many people, nor does it have the Spring Festival rush, she can't adapt!"
"Stop messing around, let's find someone! Otherwise, let's send the girls out first and come back to look for them later. Oh my god, who stepped on my foot?" Each one was pulling at each other's necks, shouting, the scene was chaotic.
"I'm here! I can't get out! Why don't you guys go first and wait for me outside!" Su Luo shouted back, waving her hand to signal everyone over, and coincidentally, her position allowed her to see Yang Ningning, who was struggling but still "proud" in the center of the crowd.
"I see Xiaogu, she's over there, I'll go bring her out!"
"I'll go with you, md, are all the people in C city squeezed here? Can't move at all! Xiaogu don't move, just stay there, we'll be right over!" Lin Chenghua and another man walked towards her.
After much effort, the two of them finally moved in front of Su Luo.
"Xiao Gu, are you okay?" Lin Chenghua anxiously checked her up and down to confirm if she was injured.
Suoluo rolled his eyes in his heart, this guy was too exaggerated, what could be so pressing that he had to squeeze in like it was a reunion after a narrow escape from death.
"I'm fine, just got kicked a few times. But that girl, she looks familiar, is she your family's Yang Ningning?"
