There was still a deathly silence in the elevator, and even the breathing sound of Ai Xin and Tong Yu was almost gone.

For the first time, Ai Xin felt that silence brought not embarrassment, but another strange aura.

"I'm sorry. ”

Tong Yu slowly opened his mouth, his gaze wandered a little, and finally fell back to Ai Xin's body.

"Say you're sorry, you're right. ”

Ai Xin looked at him like this and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Tong Yu is always so gentle, so that the resentment in her heart doesn't know how to let it out.

"I just...... I just want to know you better. ”

Tong Yu lowered his head, and his voice was a little lower.

"You did...... A lot of things, I think about it now, it's actually wrong to be angry, because you're also for me...... I think if I took the initiative to get to know you better, wouldn't there be so many misunderstandings and estrangements between us many times. ”

"Huh?"

When Ai Xin heard this, he suddenly raised his head to look at him, and was in a trance for a while, and then shook his head again, with a look of disappointment in his eyes.

"We've known each other for so long, is this the first time you've ...... Do you want to try to understand me? I used to think you were just, you just didn't know how to express it, I didn't expect it, I really didn't think of it......"

"It's not like that!"

Tong Yu retorted in a panic, but after speaking, he didn't continue, just stunned, his head hanging low.

"You see, I can't even come up with a lame excuse......" Ai Xin smiled and sighed, "We're really different." ”

"I was just ...... I just didn't think about it. We hadn't known each other for long, and I didn't want to start so soon...... I'm just worried that if I do that, I might hurt you in the future, and I ......."

"Hurt yourself, too, huh?"

“…… I don't know. ”

Tong Yu shook his head and sighed helplessly.

"There are some things that I still feel powerless when I think about it now. You know, back then...... It was before you were injured and hospitalized, we had a meeting with Jinghai once. It was organized by Jinghai, and the reason used at that time was to make amends to me. ”

"Hmm. ”

Ai Xin responded, there was no movement and no extra words, she never said much about things she didn't know.

"At that time, we all thought that this reparation referred to the fact that he had an affair with you, and we all felt that we didn't need to be so serious. But at that meal, he said that he really likes you and wants to pursue you. Su Ya said that Tong Yu and Ai Xin haven't broken up yet, what are you anxious about. As a result, he said, didn't you break up?" Tong Yu paused and looked at Ai Xin, "That's when we had a fight at DIDI, and after that, you met Jinghai, right?"

"Uh...... Well. ”

"So, when he said that at the dinner table, I was confused. I couldn't think of anything to fight back, and it felt like I was losing completely in front of him, because he knew everything that was going on between the two of us, and I was like I had no clothes on. ”

"He told me that there was something very important to say, and I didn't expect it to be just a confession. ”

"I understand, and I saw it very clearly when I went to the hospital later, and I don't blame you for everything. It's just that I was at a loss...... When you're not with me, I don't know who you're meeting, what you're doing, or what you're saying. This feeling of being bottomless makes me feel very panicked. Although we were reconciled in the hospital, these problems have never been resolved, and we are only maintaining the feeling of 'liking'. ”

"I said that I will not hide anything from you, what do you want to know, just ask me. ”

"A lot of questions...... It's not like you can ask if you want to, right?"

"Then you can ask if you want now. ”

Ai Xin shrank on the ground, hugged his knees, and looked at him helplessly.

“…… You're like this, how can I ask!"

"You just ask, I'm idle now, I'm idle, besides......" Ai Xin tried to glance at the side, but immediately withdrew his gaze and stared at Tong Yu, "I can't look anywhere except on the ground and you now, and I'm bored." ”

"I've almost forgotten that you're afraid of heights, it's too much of a drama...... Are you in your current state?"

"It's okay, it's okay if you don't look at it, and after taking medicine, people can be more comfortable. ”

"How long have you been afraid of heights......"

"Naturally, it's not like I'm afraid of any height, it's much better if there's something next to it. Like this kind of sightseeing elevator, it will be more powerful if it is completely suspended. When I was a child, I was not afraid to slip down the handrail of the stairs at home because there were walls and stairs next to it. ”

"When you were a child, there were stairs in your home...... When I was a child, there wasn't even a bookshelf at home, and the books were stacked in stacks at the end of the bed. Tong Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, "We are indeed different." ”

"It's useless, no matter how big the house is, isn't it all a few people living there? I didn't have a few more brothers and sisters because there were more rooms in the house. Oh yes, it seems to be a lot of people, and there are maids, nannies, cooks and so on......"

"Tut-tut. Tong Yu pursed his lips, "I'm still curious, how can cooking be so delicious when you grow up with a golden spoon in your mouth." No, it's actually cooking...... I think Tao Li should belong to the kind that doesn't know anything, right?"

"You see people are quite accurate. Ai Xin smiled, "After my dad died, my mom was emotionally broken for a while and didn't eat. I was worried that she would have problems with this, so I learned to make it myself, probably inheriting my dad's craftsmanship, and slowly I could find that taste, and my mother was quite willing to eat it. ”

Tong Yu nodded, although Ai Xin can try to cook any dish, it is still the best home-cooked food.

"Later, my mom was gone, and I just cooked as a hobby, to pass the time. Sometimes I have nothing to do, I go to the supermarket to choose materials, come back and slowly study and cook a table of dishes, and the afternoon just passes. ”

"One person, one table. If you were in our house, my mother would probably beat you with a broom because you were so wasteful. ”

"I didn't waste anything, I ate it all. Ai Xin frowned, "Otherwise, how do you think I would be so fat when I was in college?"

"It's not very fat. ”

Tong Yu shook his head, he had seen the photos in Tao Li's mobile phone, at most he was slightly fat, and it was quite cute.

"The photos that Tao Li showed you were when I graduated, and I had already lost weight by then. When I entered the school as a freshman, I probably didn't have more than 100. At the most exaggerated time, it was close to one hundred and forty pounds, and later before graduation, it recovered to more than one hundred and a few pounds. ”

"During this time, Tao Li didn't even give up on you?"

Thinking of this, Tong Yu couldn't help laughing, and after a while, he frowned and looked at her again.

"No wonder you lost weight at that time and lost your body, and such a big fluctuation in weight is very bad for your body. In the future, don't lose weight like this. ”

"I know that there is no need for it now, I eat less, I am tired to death every day, I don't sleep enough, I can't gain weight at all. ”

“…… Have you always been so busy, or have you been so busy since you met me?"

"This, it seems to have been ...... all the time Let's start graduating from college. It was quite easy when I was in college, and then I was also a graduate student, so I didn't put too much effort into it. It's just that after grad school, I have to help my mentor do a lot of things, and then I can start working, and I still have something in hand, and my time is quite tight every day. After doing business with Tao Li, although it is a little annoying sometimes, it is not as busy as before. ”

"You're doing pretty well. Tong Yu nodded, "Yes, you are smart, you can see it." ”

"Whether the grades are good or not has little to do with whether Cong is smart or not. Tao Li is also smart, but he can't read books or anything at all. He has an assistant who is a graduate of our school's art department. That kid can't be said to be unintelligent, but he lacks a bit of cleverness. But she is diligent, she is really stupid and flies first, and she has grown a lot over the years. So in fact, if you work hard, many people can reach a height. ”

"But most people get stuck at that height and can't go up. Diligence can make up for clumsiness, but in the face of genius, diligence is not worth mentioning at all. ”

Tong Yu didn't know what he thought, a trace of loss flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his head.

Ai Xin looked at him and laughed: "Are you thinking that in addition to diligence and talent, sometimes luck is also very important?"

"Hmm. ”

Tong Yu nodded honestly.

"Then let me ask you, if you had to choose one of the three types of diligence, talent, and luck, what would you choose?"

"This ......" Tong Yu hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head, "This multiple-choice question is so difficult." ”

"What's the difficulty? I'll choose luck without hesitation!"

"Why? Is it diligent...... Isn't it, talent, don't you think it's important?"

"It's not that it's not important, it's not that important. ”

"What do you mean?"

Tong Yu looked at her, his face full of puzzlement.

"If you think about it, a person who is diligent can make a good life, right? That person has talent, he may have a lot of achievements, the kind of successful person. But luck, it's different......"

"How is it different?"

"People who have luck may not be rich or famous. But, at least, he'll be happy...... If you think about it, what is wealth, fame and fortune, there are always people who are unhappy. People who can live happily have to bump into what shit luck. ”

After speaking, Ai Xin also lowered his head and smiled, touched his nose, and suddenly felt a sense of sadness.

"You're doing ...... Not happy?"

Tong Yu looked at her, a little hesitant.

"I can't describe my life as happy or unhappy, I can only say that I am a rather unlucky person. Or rather, I'm lucky, but I'm just going to keep the people around me unlucky. ”

"Are you unlucky?, since you were a child, you have no worries about food and clothing, graduated from a prestigious school, have a successful job, and have friendship and love, are you still unlucky?" Tong Yu looked at her puzzled, hesitated for a few seconds, and still asked, "At that time, did you really not have a heart for Jinghai?"

"What, do I look like the type who can be easily tempted?"

"That's not true, it's just that the conditions in Jinghai are also very good. Even...... Better than me, and whatever happened, I had at least been friends with him for a while, and I knew him a little. At that time, he should have been quite serious about you. ”

"Oh. Ai Xin nodded, "Because he has good conditions, will I be tempted?"

"Also, I forgot about Tao Li. ”

Tong Yu suddenly laughed, touched the back of his head, and looked at Ai Xin with some embarrassment.

"Have you ever heard someone tell you before, Ai Xin's conditions are so good, others are rushing to post upside down, you are good, lukewarm?"

"How do you know?!" Tong Yu was stunned for a moment, and recalled, "I seem to have really heard it, it seems to be, it seems to be ......"

"Li Shengting said that, right?"

Ai Xin looked at him, blinked, and both of them laughed at the same time.

"Yes, he told me that, sneeringly. ”

"I know he can't spit ivory out of his dog's mouth. So, both of us, whether we like one person or not, it doesn't matter what the other person's conditions are. ”

"Well, but then again, what you said to Jinghai in the hospital later, there is another time...... I knew it wasn't right, but at the time, I really felt ...... It's quite relieving. ”

"Understood. Ai Xin nodded, "There's nothing wrong with that. Jinghai was your friend at that time, he didn't save you any face, and he provoked the two of us, I said that those words were light, you don't need to feel guilty. ”

"You're speaking straight today. ”

Tong Yu rarely saw her like this, the last time I saw her go so straight, it was when she was hospitalized. In a trance, he still missed that time a little.

"That's what I meant to be, didn't I tell you, but I just pretend to be outside, after all, it's easy to offend people if I speak too straight. Probably the habit of lying is also developed in this way, sometimes it is subconscious at all, and the words come out without thinking about it. ”

"It's less like this in the future. Tong Yu frowned, "At least, don't do this with me, I don't like it." ”

"Hmm. Ai Xin nodded, "On the company's side, I also plan to slowly retreat in the future, after Tao Li can become independent." Now, I'm also a little tired of dealing with people. I used to think that after the age of thirty, I would not do anything......"

Ai Xin paused suddenly, but it aroused Tong Yu's curiosity.

"And then?"

"Ah, then ah......" Ai Xin blinked, "and then find a paradise, cultivate the fields, be self-sufficient, and have no quarrel with the world." ”

Ai Xin originally thought that when he was thirty years old, he would transfer all the inheritance to Tao Li's name and then die...... But now that his thoughts have changed, and in front of Tong Yu, it is impossible to say this.

"Very well, I've thought about it too. I want to get married and have children around the age of 30, and then slowly stop taking jobs and live a good life. I didn't expect it......"

"Did you not expect that you were in your thirties and unmarried, or did you not expect that your career would be able to maintain until you were in your thirties?" Ai Xin looked at him with the corners of his mouth hooked, "After all, you are taking the idol route, I don't think it's easy." ”

"Are you sure you're speaking straight, I don't think you're just a poisonous tongue. ”

Tong Yu glared at her, but he wasn't angry, after all, Ai Xin was telling the truth.

"I was so young that I would say anything like getting married and having children before I was thirty. If I'm as popular as Jing Hai, or Su Ya who makes a lot of money every year, who cares about this......"

"I care. Ai Xin looked at him and blinked, "Isn't starting a family the most important thing for you?"
