Chapter 338: We're Just Friends
Qi Hengye has never been able to contact Xu Xinyi.
Since the last time she was annoyed by the release of her pigeons, it has been like a stone in the sea to send a message or make a phone call.
Xu Xinyi didn't block him, but she couldn't send a message, and the phone hung up directly, without giving him a chance to speak.
Since the two met, they had never been like now, and Qi Hengye didn't know what to do for a while.
And he was worried that it would affect Xu Xinyi's work and cause her greater unhappiness, so he didn't dare to call her too much, so he could only send her messages and apologize every day, which was extremely humble.
I don't know how long such days have passed, and finally one day, Xu Xinyi sent him a message back.
Seeing that different colors finally appeared in the dialog box full of self-talk, Qi Hengye was overjoyed and almost laughed out loud in the office.
Trying his best to restrain his emotions, Qi Hengye looked at the news sent by Xu Xinyi seriously.
In fact, the content is very simple, ask him to come out for a meal after work in the evening, chat, and the address of the hotel is behind.
It's the one I missed last time.
This time, Qi Hengye naturally couldn't release her pigeons anymore.
It was because his colleagues in the department invited him to go for a drink in the evening, and he refused directly without hesitation: "I'm sorry, I have an appointment in the evening, next time." ”
"There's an appointment, a man or a woman?" asked a colleague gossipingly.
"A friend. ”
Although Qi Hengye's answer was simple, it could still be seen from the expression on his face that this so-called "friend" was definitely not ordinary.
There are those who know more, and when they look at Qi Hengye, their eyes are full of deep meaning.
"I know, I saw a beautiful woman coming to Dean Qi before, she looks elegant and intellectual......"
"Really, talk about it, talk about it. ”
Seeing everyone talking about Xu Xinyi together, Qi Hengye was a little unhappy, and coughed lightly: "Okay, don't talk about it here, I really have something to do this time, and next time I have a chance, I will cover all the expenses." ”
"Sure enough, Dean Qi is the most bold!"
When everyone heard this, they were immediately excited, and they didn't bother to discuss what that woman looked like, even if they left together.
Seeing them leaving, Qi Hengye quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly got in the car and went to the agreed place.
In order to prevent traffic jams on the road, Qi Hengye even took a shortcut and galloped all the way on the road.
When I arrived at the hotel, it was earlier than the agreed time, and Xu Xinyi hadn't arrived yet.
Qi Hengye breathed a sigh of relief, chose a position by the window, and waited for Xu Xinyi while drinking tea.
When there were still three minutes left before the agreed time, Xu Xinyi finally appeared and came.
"I'm sorry, there was some gambling on the road, I'm not late, am I?"
"No, the time was just right. ”
Seeing her, Qi Hengye immediately got up and helped her pull out the chair, full of gentlemanly demeanor.
Xu Xinyi thanked her in a low voice, and then sat down elegantly with her skirt stroked.
"The chef of this restaurant has returned from studying abroad, and his skills are very good, I have eaten it twice before, and I like it very much, so you can try it today. ”
"Good. ”
Qi Hengye naturally has no opinions, and when she orders, it is all up to her to make up her mind.
Xu Xinyi was also not polite, and ordered what she liked to eat.
After a while, the dishes were served on the table one by one, and they were really full of color and flavor, which made people can't help but feel appetizing.
"Taste it, how it tastes. ”
Saying that, Xu Xinyi took the lead in picking up some dishes and put them in Qi Hengye's bowl.
Qi Hengye was overjoyed, and the smiles on his face continued one after another.
After tasting a few dishes, Qi Hengye nodded and exclaimed: "The taste is really good, Xinyi, your taste has always been wrong." ”
"Well, I just happened to find out. Xu Xinyi smiled and took a sip of water from the cup.
Seeing this, Qi Hengye pursed his lips, hesitated again and again, and apologized to her again in person: "Xinyi, last time I released your pigeon, it was my fault, I'm sorry, I know what I did made you very angry, although I have been humble before, but I met today, I think I should solemnly apologize to you again, I'm really sorry, it's me who is not good." ”
Seeing that his expression was sincere, and his tone was full of guilt, Xu Xinyi smiled and shook her head.
"It doesn't matter, I was also a little too quick and made a fuss. It's not a big deal, but I'm on the line, and I've snubbed you for so many days, and I'm not. ”
"No, you're not wrong, after all, it's me who didn't do it first, and it's reasonable that you will be dissatisfied. If it had been me, I would have understood, but I might not have been happy. ”
Hearing this, Xu Xinyi was still smiling, and her tone was gentle and calm: "Fortunately, I've thought about it a lot in the past few days, and some things have finally been figured out." I haven't had a chance to explain some things to you before, but since I'm here today, it's better to take this opportunity to make it clear, and what conflicts will arise in the future and affect my feelings. ”
"Tell me anything, and I'll listen. ”
"Actually...... I know you like me. ”
Qi Hengye didn't expect her to say this when she opened her mouth, and she was stunned for a moment, and a shy flush slowly climbed on her handsome face.
A little embarrassed to look at her, Qi Hengye hung his head slightly, and his voice was a little low: "This, this is all seen by you." ”
"yes, you're so obvious, I can't ignore it even if I want to play stupid. Xu Xinyi teased.
"And what do you think about it?"
"Me?"
Raising her eyebrows, Xu Xinyi lightly hooked the corners of her lips, leaned back, and reached out to tuck the broken hair of her sideburns behind her ears, "To be honest, Hengye, I have always regarded you as a very good friend of mine, who can talk about my heart, can confide in grievances, and can rely on a shoulder when I am sad and sad." But other than that, I don't have a relationship between a man and a woman for you, we're just good friends. ”
Hearing her words, the smile on Qi Hengye's face broke off little by little, his expression stiffened, and he no longer had the calm joy he had before.
"Friend, friend, you say you've always just thought of me as a friend?"
"Yes. ”
Nodding, Xu Xinyi's tone was extremely firm, and there was no sign of lying, "We have always been friends, haven't we? You haven't confessed to me, and I haven't expressed my love to you, what is this not a friend?"
"Then I'll confess ...... now"
"Hengye, don't you understand what I mean?"
Xu Xinyi sighed, holding her forehead with her hand, her expression full of helplessness, "I don't like you." ”
