Chapter Seventy-Three: Valentine's Day Gifts

(Girls' Literature)

Cheng Yueze thought that Tao Xunran would reject him. But I didn't expect her to say this eventually.

I was very disappointed at the bottom of my heart. Even the words that came out again carried a hint of loneliness. "It seems that the children will not receive Miss Tao's gifts today. ”

"Today. Are they going to see the gift today? Tao Xunran heard that Cheng Yueze's words were full of regret. She just didn't want to disappoint her two children.

"Yes. But since Miss Tao is inconvenient today. Then forget it. I'll just go back and coax them. Cheng Yueze said in a tone that he didn't want her to be embarrassed.

Hear the empathetic words of the man on the other end of the phone. Tao Xunran pouted. If you don't want to embarrass people. I shouldn't have called.

Grit your teeth. Tao Xunran said with his eyes closed. "Where are you now? Let's go and choose a gift together. ”

Hear Tao Yanran's words. The corners of Cheng Yueze's mouth hooked up a triumphant smile. But the words that came out were undisguised as surprise. "Miss Tao has time. ”

"When did I say there was no time. "I just don't want to see you.

"In that case. Where does Miss Tao live. I'll pick you up right now. ”

Tao Xunran didn't want to tell him his address. I didn't want to say no outright. "I live far away. Don't bother you to make a special trip. We'll see you in the city center. ”

"I asked Miss Tao for help. Not a hassle at all. I'm also worried that Miss Tao will be the same as last time......"

Tao Xunran found that Cheng Yueze wanted to mention the last time he got lost. Hurriedly interrupted him. "I'm not helping you. Just happy for the two kids. Don't be sentimental. See you right in the city center. ”

After saying it all at once. Tao Xunran didn't wait for Cheng Yueze to say anything. He hung up.

Cheng Yueze listened to the only sound on the other end of the phone that the call was interrupted. Silently put down the phone. Then look out the window.

"Zhang Yao. Just stop here. You take a taxi back to the office. There's nothing important, don't call me today, I know. ”

What can Zhang Yao say. It's not the first time that he has been thrown on the side of the road by the president halfway. He also dared to complain.

"I see. Zhang Yao parked the car on the side of the road. Then get ready to get off the bus. Suddenly remembered something. said to Cheng Yueze. "President. You will have to be reimbursed for the cost of the taxi. ”

"You can tell me about this kind of thing, too. Cheng Yueze said in an unkind tone.

watched Cheng Yueze drive away. Zhang Yao silently slandered in his heart. It's not big or small. If I can block you. Let you casually throw people on the side of the road.

Cheng Yueze drove the car. When I came to the door of the villa where Tao Yanran lived. The time before the call was hung up. Less than five minutes.

I've calculated the time and waited here. Since she didn't let herself pick her up. Then he'll make a chance encounter. A matter of fate. Who knows?

Cheng Yueze sat calmly in the car. Keep your eyes on the door of the villa area not far away. Hold the steering wheel in one hand. Fingers tapped back and forth.

At the moment when I saw that familiar figure appear in the field of vision. The corners of his mouth hooked up a good-looking smile.

Watch her walk to the taxi spot. Cheng Yueze started the car slowly. Listen to the car in front of Tao Yanran at the right time.

Tao Yanran, who had already raised his hand and was ready to take a taxi. A car suddenly stopped before the meeting. I was also taken aback. Wait until the windows roll down. Tao Yanran saw. It was indeed a face that was even more surprised than she was now.

"You...... How are you. Tao Xunran pointed at Cheng Yueze. I was speechless.

Cheng Yueze pretended to be surprised. No less. "Miss Tao. It's really you. When coming up from behind. It looks a little like that. That's a coincidence, isn't it? "Don't give Tao Yunran a chance to speak. Cheng Yueze reached out and opened the door of the passenger seat. "Hurry up. ”

It's better to meet than to meet by chance. Tao Xunran is not a hypocritical person. Take advantage of the situation and sit in the car.

"How did you end up here. "Although his performance seems to be very real. But she still asked suspiciously.

"I just met a client. Now I'm going back to the city center. Cheng Yueze replied truthfully. He had indeed just met the client. Just a little far away. Just passing through here.

"That's right. Tao Xunran is not entangled in this issue. I came out today and chose a present. And that was her mission.

Along the way, she stopped talking. It's just that there's something strange about one thing. That's when I met a lot of couples on the road. And I met a lot of men with bouquets in their hands. Getting closer and closer to the city center. There are even more flower sellers.

This atmosphere. It feels weird.

"What is the number today. ”

"February 14th. Is there anything special about it. ”

Hearing the light breeze on the face of the man next to him. Tao Xunran thinks about it.

"Nothing special to me. But not necessarily for someone. ”

Edifying words. Meaningful. She didn't believe it. A special day like this. The man next to him can stop.

"Someone. Cheng Yueze repeated. Then he suddenly said. "You mean the couples on the street. Truly. Valentine’s Day. Suitable for lovers to spend together. ”

Feign. You just keep pretending.

Tao Xunran for Cheng Yueze. It's just getting more and more scoffing.

Finally arrived in the city center. The atmosphere of Valentine's Day is also getting stronger. The two got out of the car. Walking side by side on the shopping street. Tao Xunran always felt a little weird.

"Handsome guy. Buy a bouquet of flowers. Your girlfriend is so beautiful. ”

The two of them walked forward side by side. A young girl appeared in front of her. Ingeniously braided with two braids. Carrying a flower basket in his hand. It was full of red roses.

"I'm sorry. You read it wrong. We are brothers and sisters. ”

Cheng Yueze is already ready to take the wallet. But because of a sentence of edification. Stopped the action. The expression on his face froze suddenly.

The girl who sold flowers listened to Tao Yanran's words. was also stunned. Then he covered his lips and chuckled. But he took out a flower from the flower basket. Hand it to Cheng Yueze. "Since the two are not a couple. Then give this rose to this handsome guy. ”

Cheng Yueze faced this sudden change. I didn't know what to do for a while. The flowers have been handed to you. So Mu Ne took it.

"Miss. How much do you spend on it? "A couple passing by. It's as if they don't know what's going on here. The boy took his girlfriend's hand and said.

"Twenty pieces a piece. ”

Tao Xunran only glanced at Cheng Yueze. The gaze was meaningful. "Brother. The flowers were also collected. You're planning to stay for Valentine's Day. In that case, I'll go first. So saying, he continued to walk forward.

Cheng Yueze was confused. Neither is the flower in the hand. Neither is it to stay. It's just that Tao Xunran left. hurriedly chased after him.

Tao Xunran watched Cheng Yueze catch up. He still has the rose in his hand. "You don't stay. ”

"I don't know her. ”

Tao Xunran stopped. Glanced back. Then he retreated to the girl who sold the flowers. Twenty dollars from her bag and handed it to her.

The girl didn't say anything. Just smiled and gladly accepted the money she paid for the flowers.

Cheng Yueze knew what she was doing when she suddenly went back. Asked as she approached. "Why are you paying. ”

Tao Xunran glanced at him angrily. "Received people's flowers. You don't respond to anyone. How embarrassing are you. The girl looked like a work-study student. You're embarrassed to trample on other people's ways of making a living. ”

Heard a fallacy of Tao Yanran. Cheng Yueze couldn't help laughing. At the end, he handed the flower in his hand to Tao Yanran. "Since you paid for it. Then this flower is yours. ”

Tao Xunran took the flower. Snorted. He's a big man. It's really not appropriate to walk down the street with a rose.

The two of them are cold and beautiful. Walk together. Plus a special day like today. Now Tao Yanran has another rose in his hand. In the eyes of all. It's undoubtedly a couple.

"That's right. What gifts to buy for the kids. Is it a birthday present? "You have to have a goal to get started.

"It's not. It is a Valentine's Day present. ”

"You're fooling me. Tao Xunran stopped. looked at Cheng Yueze with unkind eyes.

"Little kids, you know. Not sensible. I don't know where I heard that today is Valentine's Day. Just clamoring for gifts. ”

Tao Xunran nodded. "It's hard for you. "The child is not sensible. I don't know where the sensibility is when I am a father. "They don't know what Valentine's Day is. ”

Cheng Yueze smiled silently. Thinking of the advice of the two children to him before going out in the morning. "Dad. Today is Valentine's Day. You're going to spend time with your mother. ”

"Perhaps. Cheng Yueze looked at Tao Yanran. "I don't know anything about what kids like. Do you have any great ideas. He was right. He could give the best to both children. But they can't guarantee that it is what they want most.

"I'm talking about it. You. You should have put more thought into them. ”

"I don't have as many ideas as two people together. Cheng Yueze said. looked at Tao Yanran's eyes with a hint of pleading. "Since you also like Ze Ze and Ranran. Can you help me more in the future? ”

Tao Xunran saw that he was sincere. Hesitated. In the end, it was because I thought of Ze Ze and Ran Ran. Nodding. "Okay. What I can do in the future. I'll help you properly. ”

"Thank you. Cheng Yueze was excited. I couldn't help but hold Tao Yanran's hand.

Tao Yanran frowned slightly. He pulled his hand back. There was an unnatural streak across his face. Just now she felt the temperature of Cheng Yueze's palm. It was warm.

"Why are your hands so cold. "I've known she had this trait before. Hands and feet are often cold.

"It's such a cold day. Walk with you on the street for so long. Of course it's going to be ice. ”

"Then let's go to the store and pick up a gift. Cheng Yueze hurriedly said. In fact, he could have held her hand. Give her warmth. It's a pity that he doesn't have that right now.
