Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering Chapter 1988 - Shedding Tears

Chapter 1988: Shedding Tears

Tang Wu drove to Lin Xiurui’s apartment.

She leaned against the chair and looked at Lin Xiurui’s apartment.

It was dark there and she did not know if he had come back to sleep or not.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, Tang Wu saw a familiar car.

Tang Wu pushed open the door and got out.

Before she could call out to him, he saw a slender figure getting out of the car.

Lin Xiurui walked over and held the young and beautiful girl.

“Brother Xiurui, I’m really sorry to trouble you.”

“Don’t say that. You got injured because you were taking the blow for me.”

Tang Wu froze on the spot and watched as Lin Xiurui helped Meng Rui into the apartment.

Lin Xiurui’s hand was on Meng Rui’s slender shoulders while Meng Rui’s hand was around Lin Xiurui’s waist.

With Tang Wu’s temper in the past, she would have slapped Meng Rui immediately.

But for some reason, she felt that there was no point in doing so.

Tang Wu returned to the car.

It was drizzling and the wipers were working.

The car was isolated from the outside world and Tang Wu could not hear the rain. She held the steering wheel with both hands and looked at the third floor apartment with a calm and cold expression.

After a while, the lights were turned on.

…

Lin Xiurui helped Meng Rui into the apartment and found that there were no women’s items inside. She asked in surprise, “Brother Xiurui, has Sister Tang not been here?”

Lin Xiurui frowned slightly. “This place is small.”

Meng Rui looked at the sadness flas.h.i.+ng in Lin Xiurui’s eyes. She went forward and held his arm. “Brother Xiurui, don’t blame Sister Tang. After all, she’s the young lady of the Tang family and is used to living in luxurious villas. It’s a little difficult for her to suffer with you.”

“But I’m surprised that your house has no trace of her after all these years.”

“Those who don’t know would think that you’re single!”

Meng Rui’s words stabbed Lin Xiurui’s heart.

In the years he had been with Tang You, apart from material things, she had never crossed the line.

He said that he would wait until graduation and until they registered their marriage.

Did a proud and ostentatious woman like Tang Wu care so much about her reputation?

It was only because he was not from a rich family.

After the Lin family went bankrupt, the disparity in family power made Lin Xiurui feel very inferior toward Tang Wu.

She had given him an expensive watch and clothes a few days ago.

But he was not happy at all, thinking that she was using money to humiliate him.

“Brother Xiurui, I want to take a bath.”

Lin Xiurui nodded. “Go ahead. I’ll call Wuwu.”

When Meng Rui heard Lin Xiurui’s words, unhappiness flashed in her eyes.

In the bathroom, Meng Rui turned on the shower.

Lin Xiurui’s phone ran out of battery. She guessed that he would charge it. Just as he called Tang Wu, Meng Rui suddenly screamed.

Lin Xiurui was calling Tang Wu but the latter had not answered. When he heard Meng Rui’s scream, he hurriedly hung up and went to the bathroom door.

“Meng Rui, what’s wrong?”

Meng Rui gasped in pain. “Brother Xiurui, I’m fine. I accidentally fell…”

Noting that there was something wrong with Meng Rui’s voice, Lin Xiurui pushed open the door.

Seeing Meng Rui on the ground, he walked over and picked her up.

There was only one bedroom in the apartment. Lin Xiurui placed Meng Rui on the bed and covered her with the blanket. “Where are you feeling unwell? I’ll get a doctor to take a look at you.”

Lin Xiurui was about to leave when something grabbed his arm.

Meng Rui reached out and pulled him closer.

Lin Xiurui froze.

Meng Rui was not as pretty as Tang Wu, but she was still pretty. Her wet eyes seemed to have a hook when she met people’s eyes.

“Brother Xiurui, my heart hurts.”

Lin Xiurui looked at the girl with tears in her eyes and his eyes darkened. “What’s wrong?”

“Did you know? I’ve liked you since I was young. I was happy for you when you had a good relations.h.i.+p with Sister Tang Wu in the past. But recently, I was working by your side. I really feel bad for you and my heart aches for you.”

“Sister Tang Wu’s family is rich, but she has never cared about your feelings. Apart from giving you materialistic things, she doesn’t care about you at all. The other time we went to eat hot pot, she didn’t know what you liked to eat.”

“When I came here tonight and saw that there were no traces of her life, to be honest, I was not happy at all. Instead, I felt more heartache for you. You’re her boyfriend. How could she despise your apartment and not come?”

Lin Xiurui was silent and forgot to pull Meng Rui’s hand away from his arm.

“Sister Tang Wu can’t do it, but I can do it. I want to care about you, Brother Xiurui.” Meng Rui hugged Lin Xiurui.

Lin Xiurui was stunned and wanted to push Meng Rui away.

But seeing her moving gaze filled with love and admiration for him, he hesitated.

It was something Tang Wu lacked in her eyes.

“Brother Xiurui, I promise I won’t destroy your relations.h.i.+p with Sister Tang. Only the two of us will know of what happens tonight.”

Lin Xiurui was slightly distracted. He had forgotten that today was his fifth anniversary with Tang Wu, and forgot that he had to call Tang Wu back.

Meng Rui quietly reached out to the pillow and dialed Tang Wu’s number.

…

Tang Wu struggled internally. She still did not want to give up on this relations.h.i.+p.

Which couple did not have conflicts? It didn’t matter as long as she and Lin Xiurui were willing to repair it.

As long as he had not touched her bottom line.

She wanted to go up and take a look!

If she was thinking too much and misunderstood him!

Tang Wu was about to push open the door to get out of the car when her phone suddenly rang.

She did not look at the caller ID and answered the call subconsciously.

…

…

Perhaps it was because of the rain that gooseb.u.mps appeared all over Tang Wu’s body.

A chill ran down her spine.

The call had not ended and she looked up at the apartment whose lights were turned off, a scoff appearing on her beautiful red lips.

She hung up with a calm expression.

Strangely, it did not feel so bad as if the sky was going to fall.

She threw her phone to the pa.s.senger seat, turned the steering wheel, and sped away.

The district where Lin Xiurui lived was very far from Tang Wu’s.

But she still could not get rid of that phone call from her mind.

Tang Wu stepped on the accelerator and the sports car sped up. She did not know where she was going. She drove onto the highway and drove for a distance.

The rain became heavier and suddenly, a wild cat ran past. In order to avoid it, Tang Wu’s car swerved and hit the protective barrier by the roadside.

After the car stopped, she did not stay for another second. She took her bag and got out of the car.

She walked in the rain, her long hair soaking wet and stuck to her face.

She did not like to cry, but she liked to cry in the rain.

She did not cry out loud, nor was she hysterical. Her tears mixed with the rainwater as they fell drop by drop.

Actually, it was not that painful. Half a year ago, she had already felt that this relations.h.i.+p would not last.

Lin Xiurui looked gentle and elegant, but he was a masculine person deep down. He could not stand the difference between them.

After all, no matter how hard he tried, he could not reach the status of the Tang family!
