One and Only: Doting CEO's Infinite Love-Chapter 163: Cloud and Mud
No brains?!!
She admitted that sometimes she was indeed absentminded, but she shouldn’t be considered brainless. She just didn’t like to think too negatively about certain things and preferred simplicity.
If you dwell too much on certain dark aspects of things or people, wouldn’t that make life exhausting?
Dammit! The words he just said really hurt her self-esteem...
Perhaps all this time, in his eyes, she was just a walking "brainless" person.
"I’ve never claimed to be smart, nor have I said I’m beautiful. My only sparkle might be that the dishes I make taste quite good..."
"I just want to live a simple and ordinary life, find someone similar to me to marry. I like him, he likes me. Raise a cat and a dog, go hand in hand to the supermarket on weekends, and when the time is right, have a child. Then it’s just the mundane daily life of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea..."
"I know such a life must seem extremely dull to you, Uncle, perhaps even contemptible. But most people, or rather many ordinary people, live like this. Someone as outstanding as you is perhaps one in ten thousand..."
So, how could he possibly belong to her?
This was something she didn’t even dare to dream about!
Actually, she had understood and realized long ago that they were unsuitable for each other, like clouds and mud.
Now that everything has been said, she felt incredibly relieved, but his expression on the face became more unsightly...
The strength of the hand pinching her jaw was shockingly strong!
Xiao Jinghuai encountered someone truly clueless for the first time. He never thought this person would be an immature girl, yet it was precisely this girl who seemed to see things more clearly than him.
And she went ahead and said it all in front of him, calling herself timid and foolish but not cowardly as it seemed.
Instead, she had a sort of profound understanding that seemed simple-minded...
Which also made him suddenly realize why he had been so good to her before?
"Uncle..."
Song Song waved her hand in front of the man’s face a few times, "Can you let go now? If you don’t let go, I feel like my jawbone’s going to be crushed."
Xiao Jinghuai’s eyes flickered with coldness as he released his hand and said in a cool voice, "Someone will soon bring you clothes. I have something to attend to, so I’m leaving now."
"Oh, okay..."
After speaking, the man put on his clothes again and turned towards the suite’s door.
Halfway there, he suddenly stopped and turned back, "Do you need someone to escort you back to Qing City?"
"No, I don’t need it."
Suddenly, Song Song noticed the man’s attitude towards her seemed to have changed.
Watching him disappear at the door, Song Song felt a sourness in her heart, and tears began to fall. However, she stubbornly wiped them away, "Geez, Song Song, why are you crying? Are you sick?"
She picked up her phone from the coffee table and curled up on the sofa, hugging her knees, pondering for a while until she heard a WeChat notification.
She swiped the touchscreen and opened WeChat, seeing Shang Tao had sent a grinning emoji along with a message: Baozi, never thought that Lin Xiaowen and her husband are both scum. Lucky that my uncle arrived in time, by the way, where are you now?
"...I’m at a hotel, he just left. What do you mean by that? Why are Lin Xiaowen and her husband scum?"
Shang Tao sent a sigh emoji: Lin Xiaowen drugged your drink and planned to send you to her husband. I’m still scared when I think about it now! How dark must one’s heart be to do such a thing. Luckily, there’s Uncle! Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
...
At this moment, Song Song suddenly felt dazed, so he said she was brainless because if he had been a few minutes late, she would have been...
