Chapter 227: Outside
Later, let's talk about it later.
The cocktail party ended early, everyone who arrived left one after another, and the huge venue became empty, Shen Nianlan put the wine glass in her hand on the table next to her, looked at the familiar people, and said goodbye one by one.
When Shen Nianlan watched Nan Junheng walk out of the banquet hall lonely, there was always an inexplicable feeling in his heart, did he really hurt her? At this time, he didn't know what to do except guilt in his heart.
After saying goodbye to others one by one, Shen Nianlan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Lu Nan who was slightly distracted next to her, and patted him on the shoulder.
Lu Nan's eyes seemed to be full of hope and a touch of sadness, Shen Nianlan felt very strange, and her heart was also very uncomfortable.
The eyebrows became more familiar, and the more he looked at it, the more he couldn't extricate himself, and his eyes couldn't leave for a long time.
Shen Nianlan looked at Lu Nan in front of her and felt very puzzled, since she put on makeup, these people are very strange, and now they may know that they have something to do with the Lu Han in their mouth, but they don't know who that person is.
If Lu Han is Lu Xiao's sister, then will he also be Lu Nan's sister? Could it be that Lu Han is dead? Or what? Why is everyone like this.
Thinking of this, Shen Nianlan just stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Lu Nan's eyes.
Lu Nan's eyes flickered slightly, and then he came back to his senses and saw Shen Nianlan next to him, looking at the evening dress on Shen Nianlan's body, only then did he come back to his senses, and he also pulled out a smile and took Shen Nianlan in front of him into his arms.
"The drinking party is very tiring, they are all gone, let's go too. ”
Lu Nan's voice was very soft, but there was still a trace of imperceptible cover-up, as if he was a child who wanted to hide his emotions. Shen Nianlan actually didn't see Lu Nan's expression at this time, that kind of uncomfortable feeling, Lu Nan will never forget, that feeling of parting, Lu Nan will never forget.
Just such a minute detail, Shen Nianlan still understood it sensitively, leaned on Lu Nan's arms, and walked forward slowly, her posture was a little awkward, and her heart was also a little awkward.
got into the car at the door, Lu Nan didn't look at Shen Nianlan again from beginning to end, but handed her the makeup remover water in her bag with ease.
"Let's remove the makeup first, cosmetics always hurt the skin. Lu Nan looked at Shen Nianlan's makeup, smiled softly, and just looked at him, as if he was looking at another person.
In fact, Lu Nan asked Shen Nianlan to take off all these makeup because he didn't want to think of Lu Han, and he really didn't dare to look at Shen Nianlan directly now, because his heart was worried and suppressed all the emotions over the years.
I thought that he would forget her, but in fact, he was just lying to himself, how could he forget, from childhood to adulthood, no one knows each other better, that kind of heart, that kind of eyes, any shallow love in that eye.
How could Lu Nan be so stupid to forget, it was completely impossible.
He thought that if there was a Shen Nianlan, he would be able to uproot Lu Han from his heart and forget about him by the way, but he found that he was wrong.
He fell in love with Shen Nianlan entirely because she had Lu Han's shadow on her, right?
Is that so? Lu Nan asked the bottom of his heart, but he didn't dare to look at it directly. The only correct way he could make was to let Shen Nianlan's makeup take off all of it, so that he wouldn't feel any more depressed.
He didn't want to remember that night, his father, and the hatred in everyone's eyes. He also didn't want to recall the indifference in Lu Han's eyes.
Lu Nan kept warning himself in his heart that it was not someone else who was in front of him now, but Shen Nianlan, his girlfriend Shen Nianlan, not any old lover.
Shen Nianlan was a little surprised, but she still took the makeup remover in his hand, took out her mirror, and gently removed her makeup, the car was silent, but Shen Nianlan still didn't speak.
She only felt a special pain in her heart, and she didn't know why Lu Nan asked him to take off her makeup, was it because she didn't like it? But David clearly said that Lu Nan would like this makeup very much, she looked in the mirror, she was not like her usual in the mirror, she was a little more enchanting.
It was the first time she had seen such a beautiful self, but Lu Nan didn't seem to be very happy with this makeup.
She slowly wiped the makeup off her face in frustration.
Sitting in the back seat, she could only look at Lu Nan's expression in front of her through the lenses hanging on the roof of the car.
After removing the makeup, looking at the still beautiful face in the mirror, he slowly packed up his things, put them in his bag, and supported his head with one hand to look at the scenery outside.
"That, who is Lu Han?"
Looking at the bright lights passing outside, Shen Nianlan still couldn't hide her curiosity, her eyes did not withdraw from the scenery outside the window, the car turned into the dark tunnel, and the warm light flashed in front of her one by one, leaving a haze.
Hearing Lu Han's name from Shen Nianlan's mouth, Lu Nan's eyebrows were even more raised without a trace, looking at the endless tunnel in front of him, his thoughts were like this speeding car, and he began to run.
Does he say it, or does he not say it?
"My sister ......"
I held it for a long time, but I could only say these four words, and I couldn't give Shen Nianlan more answers.
Shen Nianlan really guessed correctly, it was nothing more than a sister or sister, but she didn't expect it to be his sister, Shen Nianlan thought to herself, it is estimated that Lu Nan loves this sister very much, just like he treats Ouyang Siyi, is it because Lu Han is not there, Lu Nan transferred all his love to Ouyang Siyi?
Maybe so. Shen Nianlan silently gave herself a perfect answer in her heart, and then she was relieved.
Lu Han was the person he once loved the most, and I'm afraid he hasn't forgotten her until now.
When I saw Shen Nianlan's appearance after putting on makeup, it was as if I had seen the former Lu Han and the woman I had always dreamed of, a string in my heart had been deeply pulled, and all that was left was unforgettable memories, but there were some warm and precious memories.
And when he met Shen Nianlan, he was wholeheartedly good to Shen Nianlan, and it was also because of Lu Han.
For some reason, he began to wonder if his love for Shen Nianlan was because he looked like Lu Han before, or because Shen Nianlan was Shen Nianlan, not Lu Han, and now his heart was very chaotic and he couldn't break free from this somewhat tangled reincarnation.
Hearing Lu Nan's long silence and a few short words, and seeing his inconspicuous eyebrows in the mirror, everything seemed to be telling, the taboo of Lu Han's name, a name that could not be mentioned, thinking of it like this, Shen Nianlan didn't ask much.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, coming out of the tunnel, it was still a dark sky, as well as the mechanical lights and the endless flow of people, everything was far away from her, even Lu Nan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, left her unconsciously, it was very far away.
The driver looked at the two of them who were so quiet, and also intimately turned on the comfortable music radio station.
The melodious pure music also slowly flowed in the car, the soothing melody was neither high nor low, but it didn't sound refreshed at this time, but felt dyed with a layer of gray color by his own sadness, which sounded like that.
Until they came to the door of Shen Nianlan's house, the two of them didn't say anything in the car.
Shen Nianlan looked at Lu Nan's expressionless face, as if she had nothing to say, and there was a sense of loss in her heart.
Then, her eyes attracted Lu Nan, and Lu Nan looked at her.
After saying a few words, Shen Nianlan quickly got in the car and left, Shen Nianlan stood downstairs, looking at Lu Nan who was leaving, and the feeling in her heart was also very uncomfortable.
When he returned to his home, he was completely relaxed, threw himself directly on his bed, looked sideways at the slightly open window next to him, and looked at the night sky outside the window, only an endless black, completely decorated with stars.
Just like her heart, it was also dark, full of curiosity about that Lu Nan, but she couldn't know what kind of person it was, so she thought about it, felt the close-fitting evening dress on her body, lazily got up from the bed again, took out her pajamas from the closet, and walked into the bathroom.
She stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, looked at the mirror for a long time, and never knew why, she always had an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness, did she think too much?
Or is it because of too much pressure? I thought that today's banquet would be very happy, it would be a very exciting one, and who knows, in the first half, Lu Nan was still very intimate, but in the second half, there were more people who saw her, and Lu Nan began to become more and more inattentive, and several times, he was already distracted and didn't know.
And, at the banquet, from time to time, a few older people pointed at her and whispered, she didn't know what they were talking in secret.
She told herself not to think about it, and then undressed and began to take a shower.
When I came out of the shower, it was already half an hour later, and I took out my hair dryer from the drawer next to me, and I was about to blow my hair, but I saw the bright light from my mobile phone on the table.
wiped his hands that had not yet drained, walked to the table, picked up the phone, and wiped his hair with a dry towel while looking at the text messages sent by Yang Xiaoxiao above.
Looking at the text message above, it seems to be a long one, and the short meaning is to let her go early in the morning.
After succinctly replying to the text message, he thought that Lu Nan would come to pick him up every morning, so he simply sent a text message to Lu Nan.
originally thought that no matter what happened to Lu Nan, he would quickly reply to her text, but the text message was delayed, Shen Nianlan's heart was confused, but she was helpless and sighed.
Normally, at this time, Lu Nan would not only send a text message, at the very least, but at least she would make a phone call to keep herself safe, but today seemed to be different from usual, she closed her eyes, a tear slipped down, and then she lay on the bed and fell asleep.
The next morning, Shen Nianlan woke up very early, the alarm clock had not yet sounded, she woke up early, looked at the sky that was not completely bright, finished washing slowly, looked at her own face in the mirror, and sighed.
Because of yesterday's incident, she didn't sleep well, she dreamed all night, and she got up so early in the morning, thinking of this, she changed her clothes, packed up her things, and opened the window to breathe.
After waiting for an hour boringly, Shen Nianlan calmly picked up her mobile phone, glanced at the inbox on it, and her eyes dimmed slightly.
Lu Nan replied to the text message, but the time above really made Shen Nianlan's heart tremble, it was a text message sent at half past three in the morning, it was too late, and she felt very surprised when it was late.
Went downstairs without a look, and saw Lu Nan leaning next to the car, today's Lu Nan and yesterday's are almost like two people, and today's Lu Nan has become the same as before, let her get into the car quickly, and she can say a few words from time to time along the way.
But Shen Nianlan definitely didn't want to mention Lu Han's name anymore, the two chatted with each other, but they also came to the coffee shop, Lu Nan gave a few orders, just because he was going to work, he left early.
Shen Nianlan looked at the back of Lu Nan driving away, she didn't even have a hug, and she left in such a hurry, she began to be anxious in her heart, she really didn't know what perverted things happened between them, which made Lu Nan expressionless all morning, and there was no bad smile.
Shen Nianlan pushed open the door of the coffee shop, and Yang Xiaoxiao happily greeted her.
"Hehe, there are a lot of people who have booked a place today, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it alone,"
Yang Xiao smiled and chuckled, put the predetermined list in his hand in front of Shen Nianlan and shook it.
Shen Nianlan was very happy to see that the business in her store was so good, although yesterday's incident made her feel bad, but now her mood suddenly became very happy, after all, there are a lot of customers in her store, which is still very happy.
She knows that she can't bring any emotions to work, whether it's sad or sad, so it will involve the state of customers, and after working in a coffee shop for a long time, she will naturally realize some truths.
The two of them got busy early in the morning, counting the things in the store to see if there was anything that was not enough, and cleaning the coffee shop by the way.
When the door opened, a lot of office workers came to buy coffee, and a few people who were scheduled also arrived, and the two were very busy, tossing a whole morning, and both of them were exhausted.
Shen Nianlan leaned back in the chair and looked at Yang Xiaoxiao who was wiping the glass in front of her, but she just tilted her face slightly.
"I'm really tired, why are there so many people booking today?"
Hearing Shen Nianlan's words, Yang Xiaoxiao smiled even more happily, put the rag in his hand and spun it around, and the apron on his body also swayed.
"Hehe, I have my own method of publicity, other people's coffee shops have no discounts and no reservations, or we have a slight advantage. By the way, there is no one now, so let's just take the winter melon out and have fun. ”
Yang Xiaoxiao smiled and turned back, and Shen Nianlan also chuckled.
The kitten of the winter melon has not been kept at home, but in the coffee shop, because there are always customers, so the winter melon is placed in the back room, and now there is basically no one, it can be taken out to play.
It's just that sometimes, Shen Nianlan is worried about winter melons, so she sometimes sends winter melons to her home.
Shen Nianlan rubbed her slightly sore shoulder, then slowly got up and walked inside, Yang Xiaoxiao continued to wipe the glass.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the winter melon nested on the carpet during the day, and now the winter melon is round, it looks very soft, and when I saw the person, the winter melon just raised his head slightly, and a pair of big eyes glanced at the person in front of him, and then he went back again, looking lazy.
Shen Nianlan also felt funny when she saw such a winter melon.
"It's said that lazy cats are lazy cats, you really deserve it. ”
Laughing and holding the winter melon on the carpet in his arms, the winter melon meowed a few times, rubbed in the arms of the familiar owner, seemed to feel very comfortable, licked the paws that he could stretch out, and found a comfortable position to lie still without any hesitation.
When the winter melon first arrived here, it kept screaming, and the hair on its body was tired.
In the past few months, Shen Nianlan's careful care, the winter melon slowly accepted Shen Nianlan as the owner, and from time to time affectionately surrounded Shen Nianlan, which made Shen Nianlan very happy.
Shen Nianlan touched the winter melon in her arms, the soft hair would be washed every few days, the fat and fat body was a little heavy, thinking about her slightly sore arm, she was also helpless, touched the winter melon's chin, heard the winter melon squint comfortably and screamed a few times, and said while walking outside.
"Really, not only lazy, but also fat. ”
smiled dotingly, and walked outside with the winter melon in his arms.
As if he understood the master's words, the winter melon nested in the gorgeous and whispered a few meows, and shook his head, but like a big dog, it made Shen Nianlan laugh.
After coming to the front, Yang Xiaoxiao had already put the coffee on the table next to her, and looking at the comer, Shen Nianlan was slightly stunned.
The person who came was dressed in casual clothes, looking very leisurely and comfortable, and he could see at a glance that he knew Nan Junheng in front of him, and the only difference was the pure white cat on his knees.
Shen Nianlan walked to Nan Junheng's side with the winter melon in her hand, glanced at the pure white cat lying on Nan Junheng's knees, and was slightly stunned, and the winter melon in her arms seemed to see her own kind, and after breaking free in Shen Nianlan's arms for a while, she jumped straight in front of Nan Junheng.
"Why are you here?"
Shen Nianlan looked at the surroundings and saw that there was no one around, but she didn't care at all, she sat next to Nan Junheng, and Yang Xiaoxiao went to continue her work, as if to let them have a good chat.
Nan Junheng scratched the cat on his knees, put the cat in front of the winter melon, and then replied leisurely.
"I went to the flower and bird market in the morning, took a fancy to this cat, and thought that you had raised winter melons before, so I brought it and let the two cats have a good time. ”
Nan Junheng didn't have any sad emotions last night at all, it was completely like a different person, and he got up early this morning. Although he couldn't let go yesterday and was preoccupied, after thinking about it all night, he decided to be friends with Shen Nianlan, so that he wouldn't be too embarrassed, and his heart was a lot easier.
Nan Junheng said, picked up his coffee, looked at the two kittens who were already circling around the table, and also chuckled.
Shen Nianlan glanced at the two cats on the table, and it seemed that they were quickly glued together, and the winter melon basically followed Nan Junheng's cat around, as if she wanted to grab her tail, looking serious, as if she was catching mice.
Nan Junheng looked at the cat on the table, and also recalled the scene in the morning.
In the morning, Nan Junheng was idle, felt the cool breath in the morning, looked at such a good weather, thought for a moment, just wanted to go to the park for a walk, there was nothing to go to the park before, but today I went to see a newly opened flower and bird market next to the park, which seems to have been built.
It's boring, looking at the dense pets inside, but also walked in, this walked in, is a row of parrots chirping so lively, the more you go in, the more cats and dogs, I didn't pay attention to anything, but I was dragged by the enthusiastic old woman next to me.
"Young man, why do you look melancholy, buy some cats and dogs to go home and have fun. ”
The old woman in front of her was smiling, pointing to the cats and dogs behind her, and she was even more happy.
Nan Junheng was a little helpless and touched his face.
Is all my melancholy written on my face?
Thinking of it this way, looking at the cats and dogs in the back, it looks quite cute, and she also walked in to take a closer look, and the boss next to her enthusiastically recommended a few big dogs for her.
"Man, this kind of big dog can embody the mighty and domineering, isn't it. ”
The boss said enthusiastically, pushing the big dog in front of him in front of Nan Junheng, Nan Junheng glanced at the grinning big dog in front of him, and just shook his head.
I continued to look at other cats and dogs, and accidentally saw the cats in the cat cage next to me, and several white kittens were picking their paws in the cage, which was meowing.
Nan Jun Hengshu instantly remembered the previous cat, thought of the previous Shen Nianlan, and also showed a nostalgic smile.
The boss next to him came over and saw Nan Junheng who was watching the cat, and he was also straightforward.
"Shouldn't the uncles have dogs, these kittens are all raised by little girls. ”
The boss said so, Nan Junheng remembered Shen Nianlan before, and glanced at the boss in front of him with a chuckle.
"But this cat is quite cute, and it's easy to raise. ”
Nan Junheng said, and the boss didn't do much to dissuade him, just squatted next to the cage with a chuckle, and touched the cat inside with his fingers.
"Which one do you want?"
Nan Junheng also squatted down, looking at the white cats that looked similar inside, he was also troubled, there was no difference between the several cats, and it could even be said that they were exactly the same, they were all pure white hair and small bodies.
The boss fished out the cats inside, and took out the most lively one, because it was a newly opened flower and bird market, and the cats were washed yesterday, clean, neat and tidy, very cute, and the appearance of teeth and claws.
The boss smiled and rubbed the cat's chin, looking like a person who loves cats.
"How's this one? It was the happiest last night. ”
The boss smiled and hugged the cat in his arms, clamped the cat's paw with one hand, and gently scratched it, looking very handy.
Nan Junheng glanced at the cat in the boss's arms, shook his head, turned his head to look at the other cats in the cage, but unexpectedly found a cat curled up in the corner, compared with other cats, small, lazy, just scratched his face boringly, but there was no movement.
"Well, this is it. ”
The boss looked in the direction pointed by Nan Junheng, and also frowned slightly.
"These cats aren't very lively, are you sure?"
The boss said so, but he also put the cat in his arms, and gently fished out the lazy white cat directly, the cat seemed to feel something, lazily raised his head, seemed to know the boss, but there was no movement, and he squinted his eyes as if he didn't wake up.
Nan Junheng took the cat, scratched the cat's chin, and the white cat meowed lazily, squinting his eyes and enjoying the service.
"That's it, the boss will help me wash it again, and buy some cat food or something by the way. ”
Saying that, he put the money directly in the hands of the boss, sat on the chair next to him, seemed to be waiting, the boss looked at the red ticket in his hand, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy, this is the so-called good start, and hurriedly took the white cat to the room.
Nan Junheng sat outside, and he could even hear the sharp cry of the white cat coming from inside, but it sounded a little funny.
"It seems that cats are afraid of bathing. ”
After finishing it, looking at the embarrassed look of the boss, Nan Junheng kept snickering in his heart, it seems that in the toilet, the kitten is tossing the boss to death. After thinking about it, he directly hugged the cat in his arms, bought some food along the way, and came to Shen Nianlan's coffee shop.
