Chapter 15 A Silent Slap in the Face

The next morning, Su Xiaoxiao had already finished preparing breakfast when Xiao Bing got up. Xiao Bing was really comforted when he realized that his breakfast was also prepared.

Xiao Bing greeted with a smile, “Good morning.”

Su Xiaoxiao seemed to have forgotten what had happened last night. Or perhaps she didn’t want to mention it anymore. “Good morning.” She replied, indifferent, while eating a piece of sponge cake in a bowl.

Xiao Bing sat down and picked up a small spoon. He scooped up a spoonful of sponge cake. There was also a plate of steamed buns beside it. The taste of the sponge cake was perfect. Xiao Bing could not help praising, “Did you make it by yourself? It’s really good!”

Even though she was still unfriendly, Su Xiaoxiao was more at ease compared to yesterday. She probably felt sorry about the stomping. She finished her sponge cake and put down her spoon. She then picked up the napkin beside her and wiped her mouth. She said in a sad voice, “I remember when I was still a child, while my parents were busy working, my sister would cook breakfast for me every day. Her best dish was sponge cake, and then I slowly learned how to make it. Unfortunately… no one has ever made it for me ever since. ”

Xiao Bing could tell it was a sensitive subject, so he quickly changed the subject. “Were your parents always very busy?”

“My family has gotten better in recent years. How could my parents take care of the family when they had to earn money for me and my sister to go to school?” Su Xiaoxiao sighed. Her face fell when she realized she shared too much with this annoying man. “I’ll wait for you in my room. Let me know when you ready.”

Whether it was Yezi or Su Xiaoxiao, they were not happy. Even though they grew up with different backgrounds and their families were totally different. But in contrast, it seemed that Su Xiaoxiao would be happier if it weren’t for her unfortunate circumstances.

Xiao Bing stopped that train of though and continued eating. He began to feel sorry for her, who with her indifferent expression, had hidden her own brand of loneliness.

After breakfast, Xiao Bing and Su Xiaoxiao left the house together. Su Xiaoxiao held the urn in her arms. For her, it was not just ashes, but it also held the comforting words of every relative of Su Peiya.

Su Xiaoxiao made a quick decision regarding the grave because she didn’t need to consult others But she couldn’t afford it due to her income as a college student. So they drew money from the bank card left by Su Peiya. Then Xiao Bing handed the bank card back to Su Xiaoxiao for safekeeping.

After setting up her sister’s tombstone, Su Xiaoxiao looked back at Xiao Bing and said in a lonely voice, “You go back first, I want to stay here and talk to my sister.”

“Then I’ll wait for you outside.”

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t refuse. After Xiao Bing walked away, she slowly sat down in front of the tombstone. Taking off the her facade, she knelt on the ground with her shoulders constantly trembling due to her crying. At first, she was just sobbing gently, but she quickly broke down into tears.

Xiao Bing, who was hiding at one side, saw the scene and sighed. His heart felt sour. Who caused all of this? After talking to Yezi, Xiao Bing no longer took on all the responsibilities upon himself. He was always thinking about getting revenge!

Xiao Bing had finished smoking two cigarettes before Su Xiaoxiao stood up from the ground. He quickly turned around and walked quietly toward the outside of the cemetery. Su Xiaoxiao, with red eyes, came out before two minutes had passed.

“Let’s go.” Su Xiaoxiao still looked impassive, which made her seem strong-willed. If it weren’t for her red eyes, no one would imagine that this girl had just cried her eyes out.

Xiao Bing asked, “Where are you going?”

“School.”

“Wait, I’ll call a taxi. I’ll send you there since the noodle restaurant isn’t too far from your school.”

Xiao Bing got a taxi. On the way to school, Su Xiaoxiao kept looking out the window, depressed. Xiao Bing didn’t want to provoke another outburst, so he didn’t speak either. Xiao Bing dropped Su Xiaoxiao off at her school and asked the driver to drive to the Xiaoxiao Noodle House.

When Xiao Bing entered, Li Hong, the noodle restaurant attendant, mistook him as a customer. She immediately showed an ambiguous smile after realizing it was Xiao Bing. She pointed inside the restaurant and smiled softly, “Brother Bing, your friends are here to join us again. They just asked about you.”

Xiao Bing’s heart trembled. Li Hong began to gossip before he even went in, “Brother Bing, tell me more, for such a beauty… a few students who were having lunch said she was the campus belle of the Jiangcheng Normal University. How did you get to know each other? Is she your girlfriend?”

With a wry smile, Xiao Bing gave Li Hong a flick on her forehead and laughed, “How old are you? You’ve become such a gossipmonger. She’s just a friend. Don’t overthink it.”

“Ouch… You bully. Be careful, I will spread some rumors to her.”

“Off you go.” Xiao Bing laughed and passed by Li Hong. He walked towards Yezi and her two best friends. Like last night, many people were looking at Yezi. Perhaps used to it, she looked very natural.

Xiao Bing laughed, “Yezi, our noodle shop will close down if you come everyday to eat for free.”

“Such a cheapskate.” Yezi gently wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin. She then put down her chopsticks and said with disdain, “Don’t worry, you don’t have to treat us today. We are here to support you today.”

Xiao Bing laughed loudly, “Thank you for your offer.”

As he said, Xiao Bing sat down on the seat next to Yezi, which seemed to be specially reserved for him. Chen Yuanyuan and Xu Wenting sat together, while Xiao Bing and Yezi sat across the table.

Xiao Bing looked at Li Hong and snapped his fingers before shouting, “A bowl of noodles. Large. And put it on their bill.”

Chen Yuanyuan also finished her meal and put down her chopsticks. She simmered with laughter after listening to Xiao Bing, “Soldier Brother, you’re really haggling for every dollar. You aren’t trying to get back at us for the meal last night, are you?”

Xiao Bing took it for granted, “I am a poor man, not like you girls.”

Chen Yuanyuan teased, “A poor man who can date Yezi is a great man. Did you know that almost every day, Yezi is asked out for lunch by guys? She never cares for them though. But she came here two days in a row just to see you.”

Yezi rolled her eyes at Chen Yuanyuan and complained, “Don’t talk nonsense. I came here because the noodles in this shop are delicious.”

“Sure, sure.” Xu Wenting also put down her chopsticks. She looked at Xiao Bing and Yezi and said with ambiguity, “Especially the bowl of noodles made for you last night. Brother Bing put his love in it…”

Yezi giggled while blushing, “That’s nonsense… Tingting, I haven’t asked you yet. Are you dating Wu Qiang… I saw the two of you flirting recently.”

This is called having a taste of your own medicine.

Unexpectedly, Xu Wenting didn’t care at all and said with a smile, “Yes, the two of us are dating now, and we’re getting along well…”

Chen Yuanyuan shouted, surprised, “Oh my God, it’s true? You’ve really done a really good job of keeping this from us. How could we not know?”

“I just decided to give him a chance. How would you guys know?”

While the three girls were gossiping, Xiao Bing had already been served his bowl of noodles. A group of young students came in the noodle house while he ate. In the middle of the group was a young man sporting David Beckham’s hairstyle and wearing branded goods from head to toe. He seemed to be the leader of the group.

Li Hong saw that there were five of them, but the restaurant was already full. So, she said with some embarrassment, “I’m really sorry, we are out of seats. Could you wait a little while?”

The young leader scanned the hall with his eyes and found Yezi. He was so arrogant that he pushed Li Hong away without looking at her. “Move aside.” He said coldly.

Li Hong stumbled and fell to the ground. Zhang Jing, the cashier, rushed over to help Li Hong to stand up and said angrily, “How could you do this? Can’t you see she’s just a young girl?”

The young man walked straight towards Yezi. The others behind him surrounded Li Hong, arrogantly. One of them with the short hair pointed at Zhang Jing carelessly. “Shut your mouth since you know you’re just a young girl. Do you know who he is? He’s the young master of the Yu family! You can’t mess with him!”

Zhang Jing still wanted to talk back, but Li Hong grabbed her hurriedly. She shook her head and whispered, “I’m fine. We are just workers. We can’t mess with them!”

The boy with short hair laughed, “Haha, that’s right. You’re pretty good-looking. Do you have a boyfriend? Why not be mine?”

Seeing that the young master of the Yu family had already come to the table Yezi was at, the others hurriedly stopped him and said, “Come on, Laitou, we have business to do.”

“Fucker, don’t call me my nickname!” Laitou complained. But he still listened, following the others, and standing behind the boy with Beckham’s hairstyle.

Yezi and Xiao Bing had witnessed what happened because their table was facing the door. When she saw the boy with Beckham’s hairstyle walk over, she frowned and said unpleasantly, “Yu Hao, you’d better not make trouble while I’m here.”

Yu Hao looked Xiao Bing over with his eyes with a vicious expression. But he had a gentle smile when he was talking to Yezi, “How could I? Yezi, you know what kind of person I am. I heard that you were here, so I came over just for you.”

Yezi, with a look of disgust, replied mercilessly, “Don’t call me Yezi. You don’t deserve it.”

At this point, Xiao Bing put down his chopsticks and burped, as if he didn’t see these people standing in front of him. He wiped his mouth and said, “Yezi, I’m done eating.”

He had said ‘Yezi’ with an extra loud voice.

“Ok.” Yezi smiled again while looking at Xiao Bing. The smile could be seen in her eyes, nose, mouth, and every inch of her skin. When he heard Yezi’s gentle reply, he burst into a rage!

A slap in the face was always silent.
