Wuji (Volume 4) Chapter 8 Choice

One night I burned all my memories, and my dreams were transparent ever since. One morning I threw away all my yesterday, and since then my steps have been light.

- Rabindranath Tagore

The loneliness of people in difficult times is unimaginable, just like the six months that Xu Shaohua spent in school, extremely depressed and lonely. All the preparations were for the graduation certificate that could not be obtained, and all the jokes were made on that graduation certificate.

It has been a year and a half since the boss Zhao Bo traveled to the south, the second Su Tao was a soldier, and the fourth worked in the company, Xu Shaohua rarely contacted them, one is because they are busy and basically can't be contacted, but because he really has low self-esteem and has no face to contact them.

When people are cornered, they will always burst out with infinite potential, Xu Shaohua has achieved extremely excellent results in the final exam in several subjects, and in the past few days, he finally got the graduation certificate, although he was defeated.

After the boss Zhao Bo left, the two letters left for him, one he sent to Zhao Bo's parents, and the other letter to Xi Mengqi, Xu Shaohua never sent it, after all, they were so familiar with each other before, and suddenly because of the boss's breakup, it will definitely be very embarrassing to meet again.

But after getting the graduation certificate, Xu Shaohua still decided to bring the letter to Xi Mengqi. Although it has been a year, for the sake of the boss Zhao Bo's entrustment, Xu Shaohua still decided not to break his promise.

Xi Mengqi has graduated and is no longer in school, so it will definitely be troublesome to find her. Xu Shaohua inquired around through Xi Mengqi's younger sister, and finally learned that Xi Mengqi did not leave the city, but stayed in the city and worked in a training institution.

Xu Shaohua arrived at the address of the training institution and hurriedly took a taxi over. The name of the training institution is "Spring Rain Tutoring School", which is a training institution specializing in primary and junior high school curriculum tutoring. Xu Shaohua quickly learned all the information about Xi Mengqi through the front desk, and after Xi Mengqi graduated, he applied for a job at this training institution to tutor English.

Xu Shaohua was very puzzled, according to common sense, Xi Mengqi didn't choose to study in graduate school or go abroad, how to give up to be a teacher in a training institution, this is not like Xi Mengqi's character at all, Xu Shaohua felt that it may be because of Zhao Bo that Xi Mengqi chose to give up graduate school and stay here for employment.

"Hello, excuse me, when does Xi Mengqi usually get off work?" Xu Shaohua asked the front desk again politely.

"Hmm, sir, what do you ask?" the front desk lady was also very polite.

Xu Shaohua was a little nervous, and continued to ask: "I, I'm just asking, it's Xi Mengqi you just told me, what time do you usually get off work in the afternoon?"

"Oh, oh, you're asking Teacher Xi, Teacher Xi usually gets off work late in the afternoon, and he will leave work until about seven o'clock. The front desk lady reacted, smiling all over her face.

"Okay, thank you". Xu Shaohua nodded slightly, looked at his watch, and at half past five, he decided to wait directly here for Xi Mengqi to get off work.

Xu Shaohua sat on the chair and flipped through the magazine casually, and actually fell asleep. When he was woken up, Xi Mengqi was already standing in front of him expressionlessly.

Xu Shaohua rubbed his eyes in a daze, looked out the window, the sky had begun to darken, and when he turned around and looked at Xi Mengqi, he was even more surprised, Xi Mengqi was very different from before.

In front of her, she had long hair in a shawl, her eyebrows were thin and straight, and she wore lilac eyeshadow, painted light red, and her face was much whiter than before. Wearing a short skirt with white florals, flesh-colored stockings, and white boots, I feel that I am much more beautiful than before, but Xu Shaohua always feels that Xi Mengqi is missing something that he can't say, Xi Mengqi's sudden mature dress makes Xu Shaohua very uncomfortable and difficult to speak.

"Xu Shaohua, why did you remember to come to see me today?" Xi Mengqi barely squeezed out a smile.

"I, I'll come, I'll bring you something. Xu Shaohua was also a little embarrassed and smiled reluctantly.

"Bring me something?" asked Xi Mengqi.

Xu Shaohua rubbed his palms and stammered nervously: "No, no, it's not me, it's Zhao Bo, yes, it's him who asked me to bring you something." ”

"Oh, no need, you tell him I'm doing well, and besides, the two of us are strangers now. Xi Mengqi's face changed greatly, her tone became extremely cold, and she turned around and was about to leave.

Xu Shaohua hurriedly stood up from the stool, grabbed Xi Mengqi and said, "Why can we have a meal together, you see, I've been waiting for you all afternoon, it's always okay to have a meal." ”

Xi Mengqi wanted to speak and stopped, her expression was very ugly. At this moment, a silver-gray Cadillac ATS-L stopped at the door, and after two car numbers, a middle-aged man wearing a khaki suit, tie, and a big belly got out of the car.

The middle-aged man twisted his fat buttocks, walked in the direction of Xi Mengqi with a smile on his face, and began to shout loudly when there were still five or six steps away: "Xiao Xi, I'm sorry, I had a meeting this afternoon, and it started late, so it's late, aren't you angry?"

When the familiar word "Xiao Xi" rang in Xu Shaohua's ears again, it made him feel extremely tired and disgusting. After all, this familiar title was the exclusive name of the former boss Zhao Bo, but now it came out of the mouth of another greasy uncle, which made people extremely uncomfortable.

The middle-aged man walked quickly to Xi Mengqi and Xu Shaohua, put his hand on Xi Mengqi's shoulder very consciously, and looked Xu Shaohua up and down suspiciously before he spoke: "Xiao Xi, who is this?"

The expression on Xi Mengqi's face was very distorted, and it took a long time to squeeze out a bright smile, and he held the middle-aged man's strong waist and said, "This, this is my college classmate, Xu Shaohua." Xu Shaohua, this is my boyfriend, you can call him Brother Li. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be Xiao Xi's classmate, hello hello. The middle-aged man stretched out his hands very enthusiastically.

Xu Shaohua quietly looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and did not stretch out his hands, he really couldn't figure out what Xi Mengqi had experienced this year, why it had developed like this, although Xu Shaohua had heard some things about Xi Mengqi from Zhao Bo's mouth, but what he didn't expect was that Xi Mengqi also found his new love and old love so quickly, and it was an old man who was close to two wheels older than her.

"What's that, Uncle Li, oh no, Brother Li, I still have something to do today, so I won't bother you and Xi Mengqi to eat, I have time another day, I'll treat you to a good meal." Xu Shaohua suddenly greeted and walked out of the door of the training school in a panic.

His mental side was very confused, because at that moment, he suddenly thought of his Tianxin baby......
