A lot of circumstances in this world are very strange.
For example, when.Chen RuoYu was pursuing Meng Gu, she was not sure how deep was her feelings for him. It was just that she felt he was someone with good qualities, therefore, he would make a good partner, a good target and a good candidate. Perhaps at that time, the important point she focused on, was making a breakthrough in the egoist unacceptable concept of a woman pursuing a man or perhaps, it was tension and stress that made her look forward to success and overlooked her own feelings.
Anyway, when she felt hurt and decided not to force herself to do something that she was not capable of, strange things began to happen. She thought, she would hate Meng Gu and would forget him very quickly but she couldn't. She missed him more and more than the time pursuing him.
She didn't understand how her preverted heart came about. In short, he was constantly, frequently and unconsciously appeared in her mind every now and Then. She would always think of his many kinds of smiles.. his gentle smiles, his cold smiles, his funny smiles, his emotionless smiles, his mischievous smiles, his arrogant smiles, his hypocritical smiles, etc... All his smiles were rich and it was easy to differentiate them.
She didn't look for him again, hidding and thinking of all his smiles. His smile is so captivating that her heart began to beat whenever she thought of him.
Unfortunately, she couldn't remember few of his smiles shown on his face when they were talking during that time. She thought the reason she couldn't remember was that the man was not sincere towards her, so such detailed memories were not kept in her heart.
She wasn't clear on how her heart felt about this matter but just the thoughts of this man, would make her feel unhappy. She told herself that her previous decisions were wrongs and pursuing man like Meng Gu was a mistake. Although he's good-looking, has a good job, his personality seems good but the both of them weren't on the same path. That's was why such an unfavorable situation was created. As a pragmatic modern woman, this kind of illusions must be tossed aside and its best to live her life to the fullest.
She's not young anymore and she should look for a sincere serious man. She should look for a man who lives in the same world as her, a man who'll stay with her forever.
That day, Chen RuoYu went shopping in the supermarket and met Meng Gu. She was shocked as she had stayed in this neighbourhoods for a long time and had come to this supermarket countless of times but had never met him. After she had made up her mind never to see him again, why did she meet him here again? Could there be really such a coincidence?
Chen RuoYu decided and pretending not seeing him.
Quickly, she put two packets of dried noodles into her shopping cart, hurriedly turned around and headed towards the cashier's counter. Although, she hurried off, she had seen Meng Gu with his head bowed down at the cold storage zone, selecting those ultra-expensive imported beef steaks and in his shopping cart, there's also two trays of premium eggs.
So the both of them were really from two difference world and society.
She never buys eggs in supermarket as the eggs sold there were of high priced, she would buy her eggs at the common market which are cheaper. As for the imported beef steaks, a thin piece was able to sustain her food expenses for the whole week.
So, she really wanted to thank those nurses in the hospital as they made her realized her differences with him, at least she wouldn't continued to waste her youth and energy.
As she walked in a daze, its seem her shopping cart had crashed into something. Hearing a crashing sound, Chen RuoYu looked up foolishly, the toilet paper rolls stacked up like a mountain, came crashing down on her head.
So embrassing! Chen RuoYu didn't care about her pain. Her first reaction was to steal a glance in the direction of Meng Gu. It was as she had expected, Meng Gu heard the commotion and looking in her direction. She ducked her head into the heap of toilet paper rolls. She had been shamed so many times infront of him and she didn't want to add some more to her long list.
Everyone came forward to help pick up the toilet paper rolls. Chen RuoYu was blended into the crowd that had gathered around and was thrown into confusion. She stole another glance and found Meng Gu had disappeared. She breathed a sigh of relief and it seem he had not notice her.
Returning the pile of toilet paper rolls to its original place, she turned and headed toward the cashier's counter with the intention of paying and leaving. Just then, she saw a small child bending down to pick up a roll of toilet paper that had rolled to the side and accidently knocked his head into the old lady's waist.
The knock was not hard but its was done. The old lady was not big in stature but her voice was loud. She scolded the small child ferociously and the poor child just stood there foolishly listening to her. Chen RuoYu pushed her shopping cart past them, she didn't intend to interfere but however, she didn't see the small child's parents around so the old lady got angrier.
Chen RuoYu took a few steps forwards, couldn't stand it and turned back to them.
"Auntie, does the knock still hurts?"
"Nonsense, you can try getting knocked too! Ill-mannered child, where're your eyes? I just don't know how your parents teach you. My waist still hurts!".
"Auntie, you've to maintained yourself well. Your waist is settingso tender." The adjective that Chen RuoYu used, made the old lady look at her in surprise.
"I'm afraid your tender waist's really bruished. Quickly Auntie, don't carry on scolding the child.. you should hurry to the hospital for checkup on your bruised whether is serious or not. Registration fees is RMB3.50, I'll pay for you." Look, the passerby is so generous and she earnestly opened her purse to take out money.
Some people who gathered around saw the situation and helped to persuade the old lady, telling her since she didn't suffer any serious injuries, she shouldn't make a big fuss. When the old lady saw Chen RuoYu taking out some money, counting the dollars and cents, she snorted and stalked off furiously.
She sighed and quickly put back the money into her purse. Although, the amount was not big, she's really unwillingly to use the money this way.
At the checkout point, she chosen the cashier's counter that was the furthest corner of all the rows. Just as she was wondering what high-end goods were Meng Gu selecting at this moments, she suddenly felt her waist being touched lightly and tightened.
Chen RuoYu turned around and saw Meng Gu grinning at her with his mouth, opened displaying his white teeth.. "Such a coincidence".
Chen RuoYu tried hard to control her facial expression and smiled at him.. "Yes, such a coincidence. Is Dr Meng here to shop?".
"Yes, I'm here to shop too.., not here to crashed into someone's toilet paper rolls."
So, he saw everythings. Chen RuoYu's face stiffened. She didn't want to deal with his hypocrisy and simply turned around and pretending queing up seriously.
She felt her waist tightened and was knocked again.. "Chen RuoYu, your waist's not so tender."
She didn't turn her head around but said.. "Fortunately, not being tender's also good too".
"I think your health's quite good recently. It's long time, I have not seen you in the hospital".
"*Yes, my Ren and Du Meridien points suddenly became unblocked. My health's very good, so I don't have to go hospital anymore".
[*Ren and Du Meridien points.. are acupuncture points that control blood circulation and adjusts the function of the heart, liver and kidney".]
"Why's it that the last time, I didnt realize you're humorous?".
She turned around to give him a forced smile.., really wanted to ask him whether he can just keep quiet for a while as she didn't wish to talk to him.
But Meng Gu was not done yet and added.. "If you feel uncomfortable on any days, you must remember to come and look for me".
"It's not necessary.., even if I go to the hospital, I'll not be going to the outpatient clinic.. I'll be checking on my brains".
"Why?" From his voice, it could not be deduced whether he was laughing or surprised.
"I have brain damaged.. of course, I've to check in my brains". Chen RuoYu answered cooly. Huh, if she's looking for him again, she's really brain-dead.
Meng Gu burst into laughter. Chen RuoYu could not help but glare at him only.
At this time, it was her turn to pay the bills. She quickly packed up all her things and paid it. After saying.... "Dr Meng, goodbye!".... she quickly left. She rushed out of the supermarket door and panted breathlessly. Then, heard Meng Gu's voice behind her.. "Chen RuoYu....".
She pretended not to hear it but her legs were short and her steps were slow.
Taking two to three steps at one shot, Meng Gu was already beside her. He smiled and said.., "Chen RuoYu, I would like to remind you that if you want to check your brains, there're two divisions. One is the Brain Surgery Department and the other's the Nuerology Department.. but you're wrong. Since, you've brain damage, you should go to the Psychiatry Department. Registration fee's RMB3.50.., I'll pay for you.. how about it?".
How about it? All she wants to do now is to poke his face, poke his smile with the noodles she brought. How about it?!
This's a day, that Chen RuoYu's really in a mess.
She could not control herself and thought about Meng Gu's smile throughout the whole day. She could not figure out how a man could laugh arrogantly and yet so handsomely.
Bastard! She should have poke his face.
