"Then when will your work be done?" Xu Zhengzheng's voice was as gentle as water, and no matter what he said, his tone would not be very heavy.

But Qiao Anyan was speechless at this time.

Because she knew that no matter what she said, it would be perfunctory for Xu Zhengzheng.

"I see. Xu Zhengzheng sighed lightly, seemed to be determined, and said in a low voice: "Can you meet me this afternoon? Everyone has known each other for so many years, there is no need to make the relationship so stiff, it is a good thing for you and me to spread it out." ”

"Brother Xu......" Qiao Anyan clenched his fists involuntarily.

Xu Zhengzheng spoke: "I'm downstairs in your company now, just come down when you think clearly." ”

Xu Zhengzheng didn't seem to give Qiao Anyan a chance to refuse, he hung up the phone decisively, leaving Qiao Anyan standing in place alone.

Qiao Anyan had to admit that Xu Zhengzheng was smart, basically when he said this, Qiao Anyan didn't know how to refuse.

After packing up the documents in advance, Qiao Anyan pressed the elevator and went down.

Xu Zhengzheng's car was really parked at the door, just a car of more than 200,000 yuan, for ordinary people, this price is also considered to be above average, but for Xu Zhengzheng, he paid attention to earning enough money for a meaningful car in just one month, and he was obviously a low-key person who didn't like to show off his wealth.

Now he sat calmly in the car, the windows were open, his eyes didn't know where to look, his side face was tense, and even his soft face was shrouded in a complex shadow.

Qiao Anyan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and walked over.

"Brother Xu. ”

Xu Zhengzheng came back to his senses suddenly, looked at Qiao Anyan and was slightly stunned, reacted and smiled, and said gently: "You're here?"

Xu Zhengzheng behaved as usual, and the gentleman who got out of the car opened the car door for Qiao Anyan.

Qiao Anyan did not hesitate and sat in.

After getting into the car, Xu Zhengzheng fastened his seat belt and said, "There is a Japanese-style restaurant near my company, even if you are not hungry, you can accompany me to sit there?"

"Good. ”

Qiao Anyan had no reason to refuse, the car gradually started, and drove very smoothly all the way, until he reached the door of the Japanese food restaurant that Xu Zhengzheng said, and then he stopped.

The two went in, and the waiter stopped with a respectful attitude, and when he saw Xu Zhengzheng, he immediately said, "Mr. Xu, right? The products you ordered are ready, and now I can send them to you when I go upstairs." ”

This kind of food shop is scheduled to be a few days in advance, obviously Xu Zhengzheng has noticed something from the beginning, and today's phone call is not sudden.

Qiao Anyan followed Xu Zhengzheng up to the second floor and sat down, Qiao Anyan found that the first floor and the second floor were completely two worlds, the painted screen stood at the door, the middle of the room was a carefully carved stone, the bottom was full of water, and there were red carp wandering around.

The table is in the form of tatami mats, and the carved windows are open, so you can see the traffic on the opposite side at a glance.

It's really a great place to talk, not only quiet but also nice to relax involuntarily.

If she was a little apprehensive in her heart before she met Xu Zhengzheng at the beginning, then now, she can calm down a little when she sits here and faces Xu Zhengzheng.

"It's a good place, I came here a few days ago and found that the food and environment here are what I like, so I wanted to introduce you to try it. Xu Zhengzheng poured a glass of wine with elegant movements, pushed it in front of Qiao Anyan, and explained carefully: "You can taste the low alcohol concentration, even if you can't drink alcohol, you won't feel dizzy after drinking half a pot." ”

Qiao Anyan just needed something stimulating, and after seeing the glass of wine in front of him, he drank it all without hesitation.

It really doesn't smell like alcohol, but it has a kind of cherry blossom aroma, which leaves a fragrance on the lips and teeth, not only does not feel tired, but has an elegant sense of calm.

"How?"

"It tasted good. Qiao Anyan Shi Ran said: "Sure enough, it was the place chosen by Brother Xu, and it never disappointed me." ”

Xu Zhengzheng smiled, "I also guessed that with what I know about you, you will definitely like it, so I decided to make a reservation after finishing the meal, originally I wanted to surprise you." ”

Qiao Anyan hurriedly said: "It's also a surprise now, I can't wait for what the food here is." ”

Xu Zhengzheng lightly hooked his lips, poured himself a glass, and asked while tasting it: "An Yan, do you remember how long we have known each other?"

Qiao An was silent, and then looked up: "I've known each other for four years, and I've known Brother Xu since the first year I studied in the United States." ”

"It's been four years, that's a long time. Xu Zhengzheng couldn't help but sigh, "It's really like the sun and the moon, time waits for no one, so much time has passed before I know it, I always thought that now is the time when I first met you, and it hasn't changed much." ”

Qiao Anyan pulled the corners of his lips and praised: "That's because Brother Xu is a hard worker, and he has never stopped running back and forth for the company and the project in the past 5 years. ”

"Really?" Xu Zhengzheng's gaze fell leisurely outside, and he sighed lightly, "But the estrangement between you and me never seems to have melted. ”

Qiao An was stunned, and Xu Zhengzheng continued: "Actually, even if you don't say it, I can roughly guess that Lu Jiawen has gone to look for you, right? Did she say something strange to you, for example, I like you?"

Qiao Anyan's face was slightly hot, embarrassed and embarrassed, she didn't think she looked amazing, even Xu Zhengzheng was fascinated by her.

She is too much like Lu Jiawen when she was young, so when she thinks about it seriously, she is just a stand-in, but even if she is a stand-in, she has the embarrassment of a stand-in.

When Xu Zhengzheng saw Qiao Anyan's reaction, he knew that eight or nine were not far from ten, and his smile was even more bitter when he drank wine.

What did he do, and how did he get to this point?

"Yes, I admit, I like you. ”

Qiao Anyan was frightened, raised his head in astonishment, and looked at Xu Zhengzheng's eyes that were too calm, not calm.

Even though she knew that this possibility would happen, she didn't expect Xu Zhengzheng to be so calm in the face of this matter.

"Did my feelings scare you?"

"No-" Qiao Anyan denied it, lowered his eyes and said: "It's not that I'm scared, it's just too unexpected, I always thought that Brother Xu treated me as a sister, but I didn't expect such feelings to appear." ”

Xu Zhengzheng smiled, "Don't say that you are unexpected, even I am very surprised, from the first time I saw you, I almost thought that I had crossed over, how can it be so similar, you are almost exactly the same as Lu Jiawen." I'm sure she told you the same thing, and even showed you a picture of her when she was young, and then told you that I was good to you, but it was only because I looked similar to her when I was young, that I got the convenience, right?"

In the end, it was a couple who had shared the same bed, Xu Zhengzheng guessed that without him, Qiao Anyan could only nod.

Xu Zhengzheng suddenly asked: "What about you, what do you think? Do you also think that I like you because you look like Lu Jiawen?"

Qiao Anyan replied that he didn't know.

She didn't know, she didn't know from the beginning, and if she knew, she wouldn't be so confused in the future.

Xu Zhengzheng stared at the ripples in the teacup, smelled the aroma of cherry blossom wine, and said, "No." ”

He was extremely sure, "From the beginning, when I met you, I was really surprised, but the similarity between you and Lu Jiawen is not a pass for my side, because I live clearly, I can tell who is who, and I will not treat anyone as a stand-in for others." ”

Qiao Anyan suddenly felt that something was wrong with his emotions, Xu Zhengzheng took out a customized jewelry box from his pocket and opened it to be an expensive necklace, he looked at Qiao Anyan, and said sincerely: "Originally, I wanted to delay it for a while, and then choose to spread out this relationship after I am sure that you have feelings for me." Lu Jiawen's intervention was an accident, but it also happened to make me recognize your heart. He paused, "An Yan, do you want to try to be with me?"

Qiao Anyan was stunned, her limbs didn't know how to place, her shoulders stiffened, she couldn't move, only the clear buzzing of her head remained.

How did you get to where you are today?, she thought.

"You don't have to worry about losing a brother after rejecting me, I asked you to come over today to let you know that even if we don't have children, friends can do the same. ”

Xu Zhengzheng smiled indifferently, as if he had already understood the result before Qiao Anyan could speak.

As for why I already understood, I will ask about it, probably to make myself die.

Qiao An closed her eyes in embarrassment, "Brother Xu......" finally mustered up her courage, she looked at Xu Zhengzheng: "I'm sorry, I'm not ready to accept a person now." ”

Xu Zhengzheng was not surprised, he didn't even have the slightest embarrassment, and only asked, "Is it because of Long Shenli?"

Qiao Anyan was stunned, why did this topic suddenly come to Long Shenli's body?

"No, it doesn't have anything to do with him, so he's my boss, but if I want to fall in love, he won't stop it, I just haven't thought about continuing a relationship yet. ”

Xu Zhengzheng's answer to Qiao Anyan was still unexpected, leaning on the back of the sofa and smiling faintly.

I didn't expect Long Shenli to be even worse than him, that little bit of feelings, Qiao Anyan didn't know?

But I don't know that it's just right, although there is no longer a possibility between the two of them, it doesn't mean that he has to pave the way for a rival in love, he is not so kind.

"Yes, I think so, if you want to be in a relationship, he won't try to stop you. Xu Zhengzheng said, still pushing the necklace in front of Qiao Anyan, "Although you rejected me, I didn't buy this chain to make you promise me, I just think it's very suitable for you, so you can accept it." ”
