Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 532 - 407: Two Hundred Days Apart Anniversary
Su Xiaomeng hadn’t been to school for a few days, and because something happened at home, she hadn’t checked the school forum either.
So when she walked into the classroom and saw everyone looking at her with a sort of reverent respect, she felt a bit creeped out.
Finding an empty seat, she had just sat down when a shadow loomed over her. Xiao Meng looked up and met Shen Dawei’s somewhat evasive expression...
"Hey, you... is your mental illness getting better?"
Heaven knows, Su Xiaomeng blurted it out without any sarcasm, it was genuine concern from the bottom of her heart!
Only after she said it did she realize how direct she had been, and Shen Dawei’s face immediately darkened!
Su Xiaomeng thought to herself that this wasn’t good. What if his mental illness just got better and he got triggered again—
"It’s better."
Unexpectedly, Shen Dawei responded with a frosty tone.
That day, after Shen Dawei returned to his dorm room, the school’s psychology professor specially came to talk to him, and they talked for an entire night.
Finally, the kid realized how he almost did something so irreparable in a moment of impulsiveness!
After calming down, Shen Dawei cried for a long time.
Coming for the first time to a foreign country, a foreign city, and a foreign university.
The language barrier, high pressure, mixed with a sense of inferiority, all erupted after one exam!
"Better? Really better?"
Su Xiaomeng didn’t think her question was funny, but Shen Dawei’s straightforward answer made her burst out laughing!
"Better!"
"Oh! Ahem..."
Su Xiaomeng still found it quite funny.
"Did you catch a cold?"
Su Xiaomeng nodded, "Pretty miserable..."
"The weather’s gotten cold, and you’re all over the place, of course you’d catch a cold!"
"..."
"Did you take any medicine?"
"Uh... I did!"
"Mm!"
Hm?
"What are you ’mm-ing’ about?"
Su Xiaomeng just felt their conversation had a really weird rhythm!
"You... did you just come to talk about this with me?"
Su Xiaomeng vaguely sensed Shen Dawei had something he wanted to say, but felt embarrassed...
Uh...
"Do you want to say thank you?"
"..."
Su Xiaomeng sighed softly, "Is that why everyone’s looking at me like this, did you say something?"
"I’m not someone who doesn’t know his limits, I just said you saved me."
Shen Dawei said softly.
"Then I briefly explained the situation that day, and the classmates probably think you’re really brave!"
Su Xiaomeng thought, that’s good, saying she saved Shen Dawei isn’t entirely accurate, but those there that day probably all thought so?
"Thank you..."
Shen Dawei didn’t stand in front of her for long, and said that as he walked away.
Su Xiaomeng felt much more at ease inside.
With a twist of fate, at least she managed to save an aspiring young man!
Thanks to Shen Dawei, her reputation in the international class finally improved a bit.
The usual routine of attending and leaving classes continued.
However, during lunchtime, Qin Hui didn’t join her, because Eric was at school today and the two of them decided to eat somewhere together.
Su Xiaomeng, not in the mood to go to the cafeteria alone, went straight to the supermarket to buy some snacks and drinks, and went to the playground.
Although there was a bit of sun at noon, the past days of snow didn’t make it warm. Su Xiaomeng was dressed warmly, but the playground wasn’t warm.
Looking around, aside from hurried passersby, there was no one else.
Xiao Meng sat cross-legged on the bench, tearing apart bread to eat. Fortunately, the milk she bought was warm.
"Ahem..."
She was eating while daydreaming, and to others, sitting on a playground in this weather, eating bread... definitely had a story!
Xiao Meng did have a story in her heart, and it was a particularly melodramatic one!
Without realizing it, she had sighed several times...
Pouting, a certain woman now felt she had aged several years overnight!
Another shadow loomed over, but this time Su Xiaomeng didn’t notice immediately. By the time she did, a certain man had already sat beside her.
With a black coat and a low-neck sweater, he looked cold.
"Eating bread?"
When the man spoke, Su Xiaomeng almost fell off the bench!
"D-danger—"
Dangerous figure!
Han Tan leaned on the bench. There was a pavilion in the woods in front of the playground, surrounded by trees, blocking the cold wind, and it wasn’t too bad inside the pavilion.
He had noticed Su Xiaomeng a long time ago.
Sitting in the pavilion, he could see her current position, though not too clearly.
She had been sitting there for quite a while, nibbling on cold bread, coughing while chewing, looking rather foolish.
Han Tan knew about Su Xiaomeng.
The CEO Madam of the Yin Group, the Fourth Young Madam of the Yin Family, Yin Shaohui’s daughter-in-law.
She was very thoughtful. Han Tan realized that, after sitting down for a long time, she finally noticed.
"I’ve already eaten lunch, not going to steal your bread."
Han Tan said indifferently.
Su Xiaomeng then realized she was left with a psychological shadow after he once took her reference book. Now, she instinctively hid the bread and drink in her arms!
"Ahem..."
Xiao Meng coughed a couple of times, quickly saying, "I’m sick, I’ll be going."
The further away you are from dangerous figures, the better.
"Are you that afraid of me?"
Han Tan asked.
Su Xiaomeng nodded honestly, "I am a little afraid!"
Han Tan glanced at her, "Sit down, I’m not here to seize your territory, just saw you sitting alone and felt kind of sorry."
Oh dear... she was pitied by a dangerous and scary individual!
Su Xiaomeng wanted to cry, she really was quite pitiful, right!
"Let me guess, now that you didn’t come last in your exams, it shouldn’t be about academics. The international class students see you as the hero who saved Shen Dawei, so it shouldn’t be about interpersonal issues either..."
"When it comes to women... emotional issues tend to be more frequent; friends? Or a lover?"
Su Xiaomeng swallowed, unconsciously sitting down, and looked at Han Tan with a face full of confusion,
"Aren’t you someone who doesn’t talk to others?"
"I’m talking to a poor little puppy now."
"You..."
"I dislike associating with people, most are hypocritical and materialistic, making one feel annoyed."
"I should get going."
"But you’re alright, you’re quite perceptive."
"..."
Boss! Are you complimenting me?
"If you’ve got something on your mind, talk about it, let me see if it’s worth eating cold bread in the freezing wind for."
"Why should I tell you! Hmph!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Su Xiaomeng turned her face away!
"Otherwise... I could also share something that’s on my mind?"
Gossip alert!
Su Xiaomeng’s ears perked up immediately!
Not just gossip, but Han Tan’s gossip, oh my, Su Xiaomeng felt like she’d struck gold!
No more chewing on cold bread, she immediately looked at him, waiting for his follow-up...
Han Tan looked at her calmly. It was unclear if it was Su Xiaomeng’s illusion, but this man who usually looked like he was owed money, now seemed much gentler.
Not only that...
The calmness in his eyes appeared very sad.
"Today is the 200th day anniversary since I and my lover separated."
"..."
Amazing!
Do you have to start with something so explosive?!
He has a lover! This cold mountain, feared and avoided by all, this dangerous figure, actually had a lover!
Amen, let’s pray for the woman who once became his lover...
Su Xiaomeng patted him on the back,
"Don’t feel bad, once the old is gone, the new will come!"
She said it lightly, jokingly, but Han Tan replied seriously, "There won’t be new ones, the old ones will never go away, she’s here."
He pointed to his heart...
Just this action made Su Xiaomeng’s heart clench tightly.
She suddenly found herself putting herself in his shoes.
If one day, she and Yin Shixiu came to an end, would she ever be able to love someone else again?
Would it also be like this, the old never goes away, and new ones never come?
"So... why did you break up?"
Su Xiaomeng asked.
"Why did we break up... I’ve always been thinking about that too."
Han Tan looked at Su Xiaomeng, "Your turn, why are you eating cold bread?"
"Me! Well, it’s a long story then!"
"Were you cheated on?"
"..."
