Chapter 5: An Unexpected Reunion
The night in City B is getting darker. After Zhang Zhang took Feng Tuo to eat the characteristics of City B, the two went straight to the place where they lived.
Here, Linuo didn't wait long in the café when he received a call from the doorman. I took the key from the doorman, thanked him and walked into the community. The road surface of the community is very clean, the greenery is also very good, and the more you go inside, the quieter it is. After a while, I saw the sign of the first unit of Building 2, dragged my luggage in, and saw the elevator. At the same time as entering the elevator, Linuo sent a message to Meng Yao, "I have arrived safely in the community, rest assured." ”
With the sound of "Ding Dong", the elevator door opened, Linuo dragged his luggage out, stopped and looked, the room layout was in a semi-zigzag shape, four households on the first floor, two households in the middle, and one household on the left and right. Linuo walked straight to the room on the right, confirmed that it was 1608, and then took out the key to open the door.
At this time, Zhang Zhang and Feng Tuo also came to a happy home.
"The neighborhood is not bad, the environment is good, and it is not noisy at night. In the city center, the residents are basically upper-class people, and the quality should not be bad. Zhang Zhang kept introducing, "I also asked a friend to get a set, you live first, I don't like us to change places." ”
Feng Tuo saw that Zhang Zhang stopped the car, took off the safety and took it down, and after taking off his luggage, he looked at the building mark, 2 buildings and one unit, and silently remembered it in his heart, "How many floors?"
"18th Floor, 1808. Zhang Zhang took the luggage, and the two walked into the elevator.
Listening to Zhang Li's words, Feng Tuo frowned, "You mean the 18th floor?"
Zhang Lile was happy, "What? You are still superstitious! It's here." ”
Feng Tuo took out the key and opened the door, and Zhang Zhang pulled his luggage in, "How about it?" ”
Feng Tuo walked around the various rooms, and he was basically satisfied.
"It's not too early, so I'll go back first. You're tired after a ten-hour flight, so pack up and rest early. ”
"Okay, contact tomorrow. After Feng Tuo sent Zhang Li away, he opened his luggage, put the things away one by one, and prepared to wash, only to find that there were no towels in the house, and checked again, and he also needed to buy some paper towels and drinking water. If I remember correctly, there was a small supermarket near the neighborhood, and I thought about grabbing my wallet and keys and going out.
At the same time, after Li Nuo roughly packed his luggage, he felt hungry, opened the refrigerator, and found that it was full of things, in addition to facial masks and skin care products, there was also Meng Yao's weight loss salad. Linuo closed the refrigerator door, "Alas, I can only go out once", and said as he picked up his phone key and went out.
A few minutes later, Linuo and Feng Tuo walked into the supermarket next to the community one after another. After Feng Tuo entered the supermarket, he went straight to the daily necessities area, quickly selected towels and paper towels, and then went to the beverage area, bought a bucket of five-pound mineral water, and walked to the checkout place. But before he had taken two steps, he stopped and looked motionlessly at Linuo, who was checking out. It's been ten years, and on the plane back, Feng Tuo has rehearsed countless scenes of the reunion of the two in his mind, but what he didn't expect would be here.
Feng Tuo stabilized his mood and walked towards the checkout counter, never taking his eyes off Linuo. Feng Tuo slowly followed behind Linuo after settling the account, and only to find that the two were in the same community as he walked, and when Linuo walked into Unit 1 of Building 2, Feng Tuo sped up his pace.
Linuo took the strawberries and grapes she had just bought, and waited for the elevator contentedly, and after a while the elevator arrived, she walked in, and at the moment when the door was about to close, she heard a shout, "Wait a minute!" Linuo hurriedly pressed the button to open the door, and soon the person appeared in front of him, and when he saw the person, Linuo was stunned.
Feng Tuo pretended to be calm and walked into the elevator, "18th floor, thank you!" After speaking, he walked to the corner behind Linuo and stopped.
Li Nuo only reacted after hearing Feng Tuo's words, "Ao..."
Feng Tuo saw her reaction, the corners of his mouth raised a beautiful arc, and then reached forward and crossed Linuo's shoulder, pressing the button on the 18th floor, maybe he could smell her, Feng Tuo just withdrew his hand, but did not retreat.
Li Nuo was startled again, and hurriedly moved two steps forward, her whole body almost pressed against the elevator door, and at this time she could feel the eyes behind her staring at her. Do you want to talk? Forget it, the conversation just now is like strangers to each other, and Linuo only hopes that the elevator can be faster.
Finally, the elevator door opened, and Li Nuo rushed out without looking, but his arm was quickly grabbed, and then he crashed into the man's arms, "What's the hurry! Isn't it the 16th floor, it's not there yet!" Feng Tuo said coldly.
Linuo looked up, it turned out that he had only reached the 13th floor, and was just about to say thank you, when he found that he was still in the man's arms, and he was looking down at himself. Linuo hurriedly took two steps back and distanced himself from him. Feng Tuo was not annoyed, he still looked at her motionlessly.
The elevator opened again, and Linuo glanced at it, making sure it was the 16th floor, and ran out as if he was running away. Feng Tuo looked at her back, smiled even more, followed out of the elevator, saw her running into 1608, and then turned around and walked back into the elevator.
When he got home, he leaned against the door, panting heavily, thinking about the scene just now, as if he was on fire. After a few minutes, Linuo covered his still hot face, then walked quickly to the refrigerator, opened the refrigerator door, took out a bottle of Coke in one hand, and slammed it on his face.
On the 18th floor, isn't he in country A, how could he be here? should I say that he is lucky or unlucky, how did he meet his ex-boyfriend on the first day he came to a strange city, and he still disappeared for ten years. Is this the opportunity that God gave me, thinking about the ripples in my heart? But the next second, he was disappointed, he was already married, and maybe he had children. No, how can you explain what he did just now? Linuo, are you crazy? Just now, he was obviously like he didn't know you, even if his actions were a little too close, he didn't mean it.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, put down the Coke, and dialed Meng Yao's phone, but no one answered for a long time. Linuo put down his phone weakly, then turned and walked into the bathroom.
Half an hour later, Linuo came out of the bathroom wiping his hair, picked up his mobile phone, found Meng Yao's missed call, and hurriedly replied, and the phone was immediately connected, "You haven't slept yet, have you?"
"Well, I just washed up and put on a mask. How are you? are you still used to it?" Meng Yao said with her mouth half-open.
"It's good. Ask you something?" asked Linuo as he sat on the couch, half-expectantly.
"Well, you ask. ”
"Did you say that Feng Tuo was in country A before?"
"Well, how..."
"Then he's not a twin, is he?" said Linuo with some nonsensical questions, but of course she didn't think so.
"Why, isn't he an only child? Meng Yao listened in a fog, "Why are you so strange today..."Saying that, Meng Yao got up, tore off the mask, and waited for Linuo's answer.
"I saw Feng Tuo today..."Linuo said cautiously.
"What?!You say it again, who have you seen?!" Meng Yao almost jumped out of bed when she heard this.
"I had just come back from shopping at the supermarket and ran into Feng Tuo in the elevator. Linuo repeated what he had just said.
"He still lives in the same building as me, how is this possible? I have lived in that community for more than three years, if I live in a building, how can I never come across it? Unless he just moved in, do you know how many floors he lives on?" Meng Yao looked puzzled.
"On the 18th floor, the floor is still pressed by himself. Speaking of this, Linuo's face burned again, and he hurriedly took the Coke on the side and put it back on his face.
"The 18th floor... When I bought the house, there were two empty households in the whole building, one of which I live in now, and the other one was 1808, and I thought that the 18th floor sounded unlucky. But then I heard that this house was sold, why..."The more Meng Yao thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out, could it be that he had a heart? He knew that Linuo was coming, so he chose this place? No, is he a half-immortal? It is impossible to predict the prophet. The more I thought about it, the more strange it became, but my intuition told her that it was definitely not a coincidence.
"1808...", repeating Linuo, will he live here permanently? Is that a frequent encounter in the future, and I don't have the confidence to be a stranger with him.
"Linuo?" Meng Yao couldn't help but call her when she saw that Linuo didn't speak for a long time.
"Ao, it's not early, Meng Yao, you better rest first, and talk when you come back. Lino hung up the phone as he spoke, then got up and walked into the bathroom to dry his hair.
"Suspicious, so suspicious. Meng Yao held the phone, and suddenly a person flashed in his mind, and then rummaged through the contact, "Is this interesting?!"
When I got home, I tasted the tension of red wine, looked at my phone, and was quite happy, but I didn't want to pick it up like this, "No, you're angry, and you want me to know what you're talking about, right?"
"Do you want me to remind you what you did yourself?" Meng Yao said angrily.
"Hey, you have to make it clear, or it will be easy to cause misunderstanding. Zhang Li replied with a wicked smile on his face.
"You?!" Meng Yao was speechless with anger.
Zhang Zhang obviously felt that the other party was already angry, and hurriedly smiled, "Okay, no kidding." You say, "How did I mess with you?" ”
Meng Yao calmed down, "Did Feng Tuo return to China?"
How did she know, the tension brain was running fast, wouldn't it, they met on the first day?! I have to admit that the two of them are really fateful, it seems that they can only pretend to be garlic, "He just came back, how do you know?"
"You can pretend it for me! Let me ask you again, is the house where he lives from you?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Zhang Zhang thought about it, and it was better to strike preemptively, "Last time I asked you for dinner, didn't you say that the community was good? Feng Tuo just came back and asked me to find him a house, I must be looking for a trustworthy and high-quality community, isn't it?"
It's good that you have a tension, and you actually made a move before me, "Then you can choose a house for him in the community where you live, why choose me here, and a building?!"
"It's not because I want to see you more... No, I don't understand, why can't I live in a community? Tell me why. Zhang Zhang came up with the final killer feature.
Meng Yao stopped talking and pressed the hang-up button fiercely. No matter how much Zhang Zhang pretended, she firmly believed that this was not a coincidence, but how did they know that Linuo would come to City B?
Looking at the phone that was hung up, Zhang Li laughed thinking about Meng Yao's fried hair. It's still like this, as long as there is something from Linuo, she will definitely be the first to stand up, even if her head is bleeding, she will stand up for her friends. Thinking about it, the phone rang again, and after looking at the caller, Zhang Li's whole body was full of rejection. After weighing it, he still took it head-on, "Aren't you tired today?"
"You know why I'm calling. Feng Tuo looked at the neon in the distance and replied in a low voice.
"Hey, hey, what are you talking about... I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep..."Zhang Zhang was a little overwhelmed.
"Do you want me to go to you now?" Feng Tuo's voice instantly became devoid of temperature, "Or do you say..."
"Brother, I was wrong, am I wrong?!"
"Say!"
"Let me tell you, this really has nothing to do with me, it's all Feng Yun's girl's idea..."Zhang Zhang carefully explained the ins and outs of the matter from beginning to end, "But your fate is really bad, and we met it on the first day." ”
"Sleep. Feng Tuo hung up the phone after speaking.
Zhang Zhang breathed a long sigh of relief, and suddenly felt like he was living after the catastrophe.
Feng Tuo hung up the phone and stood in front of the window for a long time, and was admitted to the doctorate, in this case..."Pete, if I remember correctly, was someone invited me to teach before. It's okay to reply to the other party, and then finalize the specific time, and let me know when the agreement is ready. ”
On the 16th floor, Linuo was lying on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, the scene just now appeared in front of me repeatedly like an image, and I felt the unnatural beating of my heart, and sure enough, some things were not something that could be put down if I wanted to. However, since you have chosen to come here to start a new life, then don't be stumped by the people and things of the past, although it is not easy, but try hard, and it is not impossible to move out of here, so thinking about it unconsciously fell asleep.
