"Xiangmi, what a coincidence. You're here to buy something too.”Seeing that the time had come, Liu Songming quickly shouted.
In fact, since Liu Songming had a meal with Shen Xiangmi and Mu Zixi last time, he had a strong desire to pursue Shen Xiangmi. Whenever he was free, his mind and heart were filled with her. Although he escorted Shen Xiangmi out of the company every day and pretended to be her boyfriend, they would part ways at the crossroads. The time they spent together was always so short, as if the wind had passed and they had parted ways. Liu Songming thought about what he would do if Shen Xiangmi resigned one day and refused to answer his call. No, he had to pursue her as soon as possible. At the very least, he had to express his feelings as soon as possible. He couldn't end things with her like this after she left.
Therefore, after breaking up at the crossroad, Liu Songming walked twenty steps and was determined to tell her his feelings. He turned back. However, he had always been conflicted. He was afraid that if he did not say it well, he would even lose the chance to send her off. After thinking about it, she didn't know how to speak, so she quietly followed Shen Xiangmi. Shen Xiangmi's rental apartment was not far from the company, so Shen Xiangmi walked to and from work every day. It was only about a 20-minute walk.
Liu Songming originally wanted to wait for Shen Xiangmi to arrive home to express his feelings, but he was afraid that she would think it was rude. Just as he was hesitating, he saw Shen Xiangmi walk out of the house. He followed her all the way until she entered the supermarket. He then called out to her. He felt that it was better to pretend to have met her by chance.
When Shen Xiangmi saw someone calling her, she quickly turned around and saw that it was Liu Songming. She smiled politely at him and replied,"I suddenly realized that there were no more vegetables at home, so I came to buy some.”
"Oh, I'm here to buy vegetables too. If you don't mind, let's go shopping together!”Liu Songming asked expectantly.
"I don't mind." Shen Xiangmi did not dislike Liu Songming, but she still minded. There were two reasons why she didn't dislike him as much as she disliked other men who tried to strike up a conversation with her. Firstly, he had saved her, and secondly, his face was somewhat similar to Jiang Qing's. However, with someone by her side, it was not as easy for her to buy the specials as it was for herself. However, since she said she didn't mind, she could only endure it.
Shen Xiangmi and Liu Songming were shopping when they saw Jiang Qing. Even though she had seen him from afar, even though he was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and even though they had not seen each other for so many years, and Jiang Qing had transformed from a young boy into a mature man, Shen Xiangmi still recognized him at a glance because she loved him too deeply.
What made her disappointed was that there was a woman beside him. It was the Longman Zither that Tianmu Zixi had told her about. She felt extremely sad, and tears flowed out uncontrollably. Long Manqin tilted her head and almost noticed her. She quickly moved her body to the shelf to make sure that no one could see her, but she could see them from afar through the gap of the shelf. Long Manqin placed her hand in Jiang Qing's hand. After she wiped her tears, she watched the two of them talk and laugh as they pushed the shopping cart filled with things away.
Shen Xiangmi only turned around when the two of them disappeared from her sight. She could not help but cry again. There are trees on the mountain and branches on the trees. The heart is happy, but the king does not know. Shen Xiangmi muttered in her heart, letting her sorrowful emotions wander freely. Although she was already upset when he rejected her, she still found it hard to accept that she had seen him shopping with another woman. In the past ten years, all her dreams about love were related to him. Now, he had become a stranger to her!
"Xiangmi, why are you crying?" Liu Songming went to see something and came back to see this, so he asked with concern.
Shen Xiangmi did not want to mention Jiang Qing to him. Soon, she naturally thought of her grandmother who had passed away many years ago.
"I just thought of my grandmother. I've thought of shopping with her in such a big supermarket countless times. This dazzling array of goods will definitely dazzle her eyes and make her overjoyed. I will definitely buy her more things that she likes, but I will never have such an opportunity again.”
"Oh, I understand. Don't be too sad.”
"But I haven't gone shopping with her once.”Shen Xiangmi felt really regretful and sad whenever her grandmother was mentioned. She really wanted to share what happened between her and her grandmother with others. Her grandmother, the person who knew her heartache, understood her coldness, and loved her the most, she would often think of her in the dead of the night. She would dream of her and return to middle school. Middle school was the best time of her life. Most of the time, she could see her beloved Jiang Qing. More importantly, her grandmother was still alive and well.
"Your grandmother must love you very much." Liu Songming asked with concern.
"People say that she is ignorant, but she is the only one who understands me the most. She only pretended to be confused in front of the world, but in fact, she was the clearest person in her heart.”Although Shen Xiangmi knew that Liu Songming had nothing to do with her grandmother, she hoped that he would know how good her grandmother was.
"Xiangmi, your grandmother is so kind. The dead are gone. Your grandmother definitely wants you to be happy.”Liu Songming was heartbroken to see her cry.
"Yes, Grandma loved me very much when she was alive. Every time she saw me cry, she would do everything she could to make me laugh.”Shen Xiangmi wiped her tears as she spoke.
"Don't worry, you'll definitely find someone like your grandmother who loves you with all her heart in the future. If you are willing to give me this opportunity, I am very willing to be that person.”He blushed as he said this. Sometimes, when people yearn for something too piously, it can be the same as lying. He was a little embarrassed, but fortunately, Shen Xiangmi was not looking at him.
"Thank you. I, I don't deserve your kindness. Forget about me!”Shen Xiangmi replied with tears in her eyes. She thought to herself," If only you were Jiang Qing. If only I knew you first and not Jiang Qing. If only Jiang Qing never appeared in my world." But there were no ifs. I no longer expected such a person. You're not my grandmother, and you're not Jiang Qing. How can I let you know that I'm feeling a little sad?
"Xiangmi, I know you're worth it. You're a good girl. You might not be able to accept me for the time being, but it's okay. If you still think that I can't do it after waiting for a long time, I'll leave you. Don't worry, I won't be a stumbling block in your life. I just hope that I have the chance to accompany you for a while.”In fact, he hoped that he could accompany her forever, but he believed that Shen Xiangmi understood his feelings.
"Thank you." Shen Xiangmi was very touched by Liu Songming's heartfelt words. She felt that he was a little like her. He was a good man. However, Shen Xiangmi had never been a girl who could find a spare tire. Since she had determined that she was not good enough to be with him, she would not give him any hope and delay him. When she replied, she had already made up her mind to leave the company as soon as possible and leave Liu Songming.
Liu Songming thought that she had acquiesced and replied happily,""You're welcome. It's my honor that you gave me a chance.”
"Yes." Shen Xiangmi was tired and did not want to argue. She thought that she would leave soon.
"What else do you want to buy? I'll send you home when I'm done.”
"I'm just going to buy some groceries." Shen Xiangmi said as she walked towards the place where the vegetables were sold. She saw a large dead crab on the chopping board. It was on special offer at 2 yuan per crab. She took the two largest crabs and put them into the bag.
"Xiangmi, this crab has been dead for a while. It's not good to eat it. Put it back. If you want to eat crab, I'll buy it for you.”
Liu Songming said as he fished out two fresh crabs from the water for the weighing staff to weigh. 28 yuan for two. Shen Xiangmi was shocked when she heard the figure. It was so expensive. In the past, she knew that life was expensive, so she never looked at it.
"I don't like crabs, so I randomly picked two of them when I saw that they were cheap. These are so expensive, so let them go back!”Shen Xiangmi pointed at the pile of dead crabs and then looked at the two living ones.
"It's okay. I'll buy it for you. Dead crabs may produce poison. Although this is a little expensive, it's worth it. What else do you want to buy?" Liu Songming did not want to discuss crabs with Shen Xiangmi anymore. He really felt sorry for the girl in front of him. She clearly had a beautiful face, but she had never used her beauty to cheat food and drink. She lived a simple life. Because of this, many girls could not compare to her.
"There's really no need. We'll feel uncomfortable eating such expensive food.”Shen Xiangmi thought to herself, Oh my god, I want to cut ties with him, but he still has to spend so much money. She had originally planned to pay him all the money she owed him on the day she left. How much would she have to pay when he spent so much? Just thinking about it gave her a headache.
"Xiangmi, go and see what else you want to buy.”Liu Songming knew that she was worried about money, so he dragged her to look at something else.
Shen Xiangmi did not want to argue with him in the supermarket anymore, so she decided to forget it.
After that, she picked a few cheaper vegetables. This time, she learned her lesson and did not buy discounted vegetables, lest Liu Songming torment her. Anyway, the vegetables were not discounted and could not save a few yuan. She did not even look at the expensive vegetables.
Liu Songming looked at the vegetables she picked. White radish, green vegetables, cabbage, they were all the cheapest vegetables in the most common supermarket. He felt sad again. Such a beautiful girl, did she usually use these to send him off? His days were worse than his. If he could be with her, he would let her eat well no matter how hard it was. She was really worth it.
"I'm done. Do you want to buy anything else?”Shen Xiangmi asked Liu Songming when she saw that it was about time.
"I've bought it. It's in the car." Liu Songming pointed at the shopping cart and said.
"Go settle the bill!" Shen Xiangmi thought that Liu Songming would definitely not agree if she paid, so she had to pay her share at least.
"Alright."
Shen Xiangmi first took her things from the shopping cart to the cashier and said,"I'll pay for these first."
"I'll pay together." Liu Songming placed the items he had chosen on the cashier.
The cashier grabbed the item and scanned it. Liu Songming began to take out money from his pocket. Shen Xiangmi already had the money in her hands.
"That's a total of 98 yuan." As soon as the cashier said that, the two of them handed over a 100 yuan bill at the same time.
"Cashiers, please take mine." Shen Xiangmi looked at the cashier pleadingly.
The cashier was about to take Shen Xiangmi's money when Liu Songming placed his money on the counter. He snatched Shen Xiangmi's money and stuffed it into her pocket.
"Alright, then I'll settle the bill. The two of you don't have to refuse. What's yours is his, and what's his is yours.”
The cashier's words made Shen Xiangmi feel very embarrassed. She wanted to explain, but it was difficult for her to say it, so she could only escape quickly.
