Chapter 081: A Prophecy

Chang Jiahui wanted to eat seafood, and it happened that there was a very famous seafood restaurant downstairs in Xinghe, so she didn't have to run around, so she settled there.

Chang An didn't stay in Xinghe for long, she said that she would go to the restaurant first to grab a seat on the grounds that the restaurant was crowded at night.

It was only about five o'clock in the afternoon, most of the surrounding companies had not yet finished work, and there was really no one in the restaurant, so the waiter arranged a window seat for her.

Chang An asked for a glass of water and took out his mobile phone.

She hesitated to call Zhou Wei, but her mind was full of the two blinds that suddenly closed.

Chang An knew that he liked to drill the horns, so he blindly persuaded himself not to think nonsense, maybe they just had some business to talk about, didn't I hear Chang Jiahui say that Xinghe and Rongbang are cooperating on a big project a while ago, and recently Zhou Wei and Zhou Xin have often discussed work together, yes, it must be so.

She comforted herself for a while, and finally felt a little more comfortable.

After half past five, people began to get off work in the office building one after another, and Chang An sat in the position just opposite the elevator hall of the office building, with floor-to-ceiling windows on the whole side, she watched those white-collar gold collars come out of the elevator in twos and threes, most of the men are wearing suits and leather shoes, women are wearing light makeup, wearing decent skirts or coats, and high heels on the marble floor, each of which looks confident, elegant and energetic.

They finish a day's work in this high-end office building, some are designers, some are lawyers, some may be programmers, analysts, financial industry practitioners or some project managers of consulting companies, in short, everyone has a decent job, to face all kinds of pressure and challenges, so after a day of fighting, their faces are somewhat tired, but this does not affect them can still be energetic to embrace the nightlife, about three or five friends, eating, singing, bars or various night clubs, as if young life always has endless energy。

This is probably the temperament and satisfaction that work and fulfillment bring to people, and these are things that Chang'an does not have.

Chang'an's life is too simple, sleeping until he wakes up naturally every day, reading magazines or comics, sometimes watching a movie, and painting in the afternoon, usually for three to four hours, but he doesn't have any hard requirements for himself, because it's not necessary.

In other people's words, her life is too good, and she has inherited Wanguan inheritance after she became an adult at the age of 18, and these inheritances are enough for her to lie at home and eat for a lifetime, so she doesn't need to struggle, she doesn't need to go outside to grab food from others, and she doesn't even need to have a job.

Those luxury cars and jewelry that others need to pay very hard to win are at Chang An's fingertips, so she has never experienced the hardships of struggle, nor has she ever enjoyed the joy of harvest, and most things in this world are not attractive to her.

Her life is comfortable and simple, but it seems a little bland, is this lucky or unlucky?

Chang An doesn't know how to judge at this moment, but he has to admit that he is a little envious in his heart, at least these people have a clear goal in life, have what they want and desire, and work hard for it, but what about themselves?

"Sister, why are you alone here?" A hand shook in front of him, his thoughts were interrupted, Chang An came back to his senses, and Chang Jiahui didn't know when he was already standing opposite him.

"Off work?"

"That's right, it's rare that you don't have to work overtime today, and you'll leave at half past five!" Chang Jiahui said as she panted and took off her bag and hung it on the chair, and asked, "Have you ordered?"

"Not yet. ”

"That's it!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After recruiting the waiter, Chang Jiahui took the initiative to take the menu, ordered a few things by herself, and asked Chang An: "What do you want to eat?"

Chang An: "Whatever!"

Chang Jiahui smiled, "It's casual every time, how do I feel that you are not interested in being pure-hearted?" Oh no, there is also a Chen Haodong who can make you interested. ”

Chang An was swept over with a cold light when he said, "Can you order food well?"

Threatening her with money worked the most, and she immediately begged for mercy with a hippie smile: "Don't, little rich woman, the seafood here is not cheap, my monthly salary is only a few dollars!"

Chang An: "Then you still talk nonsense?"

Chang Jiahui giggled twice, lowered her head and continued to look at the menu, finally settled for a while, but soon began to chew her tongue again, "Eh, I found that the relationship between my brother-in-law and Sister Xin is really good." ”

Chang An was stunned for a moment, and he didn't catch the words, and then turned to them, but soon his expression returned to normal, "Why do you say that?"

"Really, colleagues in the company know that Xinghe can be such a big brother-in-law, and Rongbang's projects are basically for Xinghe, this Luyang Lake project is no exception, last week my brother-in-law and Sister Xin's team also retreated together in the Yuelai Hotel for more than a week, but Sister Xin was tired enough, and she had a fever on the first day she went back to work today, and her brother-in-law rushed over as soon as he got the news. Chang Jiahui was noisy, and casually talked to Chang An about these things while looking at the menu.

Her brain circuit is relatively simple, so she naturally thinks that the intimacy between Zhou Wei and Zhou Xin is just an ordinary brother and sister relationship, and Chang An's eyes have already drifted out of the window, and the two figures walking in the elevator in the hall are too eye-catching, one is tall and the other is graceful, the two walked to the door side by side, and when she went down the steps, the woman seemed to soften, and the man naturally hooked his hand on her shoulder.

Chang An lowered his head and breathed a sigh of relief.

After a quick glance, no one noticed that her face was wrong.

Here, Chang Jiahui had already finished ordering and returned the order to the waiter, and asked, "Do you have any desserts in your restaurant?"

The waiter was a little embarrassed, "Sorry, our restaurant doesn't serve desserts at the moment. ”

Chang Jiahui was a little regretful, she also knew that Chang An was only interested in desserts, "What about sweets and the like, dishes are fine!"

"This..."

"No, do you have a drink list? Show it to me!"

Chang An added another bottle of red wine, the two sisters ate, basically Chang Jiahui ate vegetables, Chang An drank, and the rest were all kinds of gossip and complaints about this sister, starting with colleagues in the firm, what Zhang San played ambiguously with Li Si behind his boyfriend's back, what was an extramarital affair, anyway, it was all those dirty things in love or marriage.

Chang An pinched the wine glass and listened, without any comment.

In the end, Chang Jiahui suddenly turned the topic to Chang An, "Sister, how are you and your brother-in-law doing?"

Chang Jiahui actually always knew what was going on between Chang An and Zhou Wei, so this question was asked vaguely and directly.

Chang An has been drunk three times and is slightly drunk.

"Not good!"

"How about it? In the past, you at least had Brother Haodong, but now that Brother Haodong is about to get married, have you made any plans for yourself?"

Chang An smiled, "Yes!"

"What are you going to do?"

She smiled again and said nothing.

Chang Jiahui glanced at it, and after dealing with the last bit of lobster meat in her hand, "Forget it, I won't ask, just think clearly in your own heart!" After speaking, he took a wet towel to wipe off the greasy on his fingers, and then put the lobster shell he had just peeled off on the table in a pose, gestured to the pile of shrimp shells, pressed the shutter to take pictures, retouched the pictures, and sent them to Moments, this is a set of processes that young girls must do when they come out to eat, Chang Jiahui is no exception, but Chang An feels that she is extremely naΓ―ve.

"You're going to shoot a bunch of greasy shells too?"

Chang Jiahui waved her hand, "You don't understand, middle-aged girl!"

Chang An: "......"

After Chang Jiahui posted the photo, she began to immerse herself in the circle of friends, brushing a little bit, laughing and laughing, suddenly saw a photo, and took a picture off the table, "Damn, this shameless little prostitute!"

Chang An was inexplicable, "Who are you scolding in public for a girl!"

Chang Jiahui: "No, Fang Rushan, she hung a new Kaizi!"

Chang An: "......"

Chang Jiahui was still staring at her phone, looking at it carefully, and after watching it for a while, she suddenly said: "But sister, I suddenly found that this slut looks very similar to my idol from this angle!"

Chang An's heart tightened, "What?"

"Look..."Chang Jiahui leaned over her mobile phone, and on the screen was a photo of Fang Rushan who had just posted a circle of friends, she and a man leaned side by side, facing up at the camera at a 45-degree beauty selfie, in the photo, she was fair-skinned, wearing a pure black turtleneck knit, and made a new hairstyle, and the short hair that had been trimmed at the same level as her ears was just at the same level, which really looked like Zhou Xin.

Chang An was suddenly enlightened, no wonder, no wonder Zhou Yan chose Fang Rushan in the first place, for which she always felt that this man's vision was not good, but Chang Jiahui's words just gave a reasonable answer.

Because he couldn't get it, because he couldn't have it, he found a stand-in and found traces of another woman from Fang Rushan to comfort himself, is that so?

Chang An gasped and drank the last bit of wine in the cup.

"I will divorce him after the Spring Festival!"

"Huh?" Chang Jiahui, who was still immersed in brushing the circle of friends, didn't react for a while.

Chang An twisted his eyes with his hand and smiled: "Didn't you just ask me what my plans are in the future? I will divorce Zhou Wei, and then go back to the UK and accompany my grandmother to complete the best journey!"

……

Zhou Xin had already started to catch a cold before the retreat, and a week of high-intensity work and lack of sleep caused the cold to worsen, Zhou Xin "forced" her to go to the hospital for an examination, tonsil purulent inflammation and pneumonia infection, and the doctor asked to be hospitalized.

Zhou Tao helped her go through the admission procedures, took the inspection report, and it was almost eight o'clock after she was busy.

Before dinner, he went to the hospital to pack porridge and vegetables and returned to the ward, Zhou Xin was already lying on the bed and began to hang water, he seemed to have fallen asleep in a daze, his makeup had faded, and his face looked pale and haggard.

Zhou Xin put the food box on the table and turned around to go out, but suddenly said on the hospital bed, "You just leave me alone?" Zhou Xin's voice was too hoarse to hear.

The person at the door walked slightly and turned around, "I'm just going to the bathroom!"

Zhou Xin said obediently, "Then you come back quickly!"

Zhou Wei: "......"

A few minutes later, Zhou Xin returned to the ward again, and Zhou Xin had completely woken up.

"Are you hungry?"

"Sort of..."

"Let's eat first!"

"Good!"

Zhou Xin set up the small table on the hospital bed, and put the food boxes he bought on the small table one by one, Zhou Xin wanted to help, Zhou Xin yelled back, "You sit still, beware of the needle slipping out." ”

Zhou Xin licked his tongue, really sat there obediently, and watched Zhou Xin open the food box for her, unpack the spoon and chopsticks, and hand over the tissue......

Probably people will become extremely fragile when they are sick, so Zhou Xin accepted the usual lonely courage and fighting, at this moment quietly watched the man in front of him busy for himself, the tall figure was half-bent in front of the bed, and the sleeves were rolled up to reveal most of the arms, his goodness, his softness, his meticulousness and thoughtfulness, all became grinding knives at this moment.

How much I didn't cherish it before, how uncomfortable it is now.

"Brother...... "The man on the bed shouted softly, "I want to say what if I regret it?"

Zhou Wei, who was unpacking the medicine box, paused, how could he not understand the meaning of her words, so that the atmosphere in the ward once sank to the bottom of the ice.

After a while, he came back to his senses, wrung two pills out of the pill box, unscrewed the capsules outside, and handed over half a glass of water.

"The doctor said that this medicine should be taken on an empty stomach, and then eat after eating!"

He bypassed Zhou Xin's question.

Zhou Xin smiled bitterly, his heart was so astringent that he felt cold, but he still obediently stretched out his hand to go over.

Zhou Xin handed over the medicine, the capsule had been unscrewed, Zhou Xin poured the fragments of the capsule into his mouth almost with tears in his eyes, swallowed it painfully with warm water, and quickly handed over a chocolate on the other side.

How ironic, more than 20 years of feelings, he knows all the problems and quirks in her, such as not liking injections, not liking medicine, and the whole capsule can't be swallowed at all, so every time he eats, he must unscrew and swallow only the pieces inside, and he wants to eat chocolate as soon as he swallows it, and only then is Zhou Xin willing to eat some sweets.

"Brother..."Zhou Xin bit the sweet and greasy chocolate in his mouth, and his tears still fell uncontrollably.

Zhou Wei lowered his eyes and put away the medicine box.

At this moment, all he could do was to act as if he didn't see anything, but Zhou Xin seemed to have other plans.

What should I do? At this moment, she had to look directly into her heart, and she did not let go at all, and it was impossible to let go. This man is so good, so perfect, he originally belonged to her, why should she give it up.

She was sure that her relationship with him for more than 20 years could not be compared to that woman in just two years.

"Brother, the last time you said that you just liked her well-behaved, then I can do it. I will never have an affair with a man in the future, I will never have a twilight again, I will only pretend to be you in my heart, not to mention that you should know that in the past, I was just acting on the spot, sometimes just to be angry with you, I want you to be angry, make you angry, make you pay attention and care about me, and your position in my heart is irreplaceable, so..."Zhou Xin almost put down his dignity to show his heart to Zhou Xin, with tears on his face, full of injuries, and sat on the hospital bed with a pale and haggard face.

But Zhou Wei's expression was fine, and he just handed her the disassembled chopsticks, "Okay, there is no point in saying this, let's eat!"

He looked at Zhou Xin with a faint gaze, and there was no wave in his dark eyes.

No, how is it possible, how can it be!

She came back from Hong Kong on Chinese New Year's Eve last year, and he hugged her that night, but the two did not talk, so they were angry with her and wanted to cramp and peel their bones, but it was only a few months, how could they be completely indifferent?

"Brother, you really ...... Do you really feel nothing for me at all?"

Zhou Wei's jaw tightened, and he suddenly remembered what Chang An said in his arms last night, more than 20 years of feelings, unforgettable, really not something that can be forgotten overnight, this is not scientific or realistic, but if you want to start from scratch, he can give her the answer very accurately at this moment.

"To say that it feels like there is no is self-defeating, but it is impossible to go back to the past. ”

"What do you mean?"

This means that in the future, they will only be brothers and sisters. ”

"I don't believe it!"

"Why don't you believe it?"

"Because a year ago you were still..."

"That's the last chance!"

"What?"

"Last Chinese New Year's Eve, it was the last chance I gave us, but you ultimately chose to make me wait. ”

"But at the time I thought..."

"What do you think? Why do you think I'll always stand where I am standing there unconditionally? Do you think I can wait forever?" Zhou Wei sneered, "But you should know who I am, I have been patient for so long, not to mention that there is one more person now, me and Chang An..."

"That's enough, you don't have to say any more!"

His answer has been clear enough, Zhou Xin still wants to leave a little leeway for each other, not to mention that women are always willing to deceive themselves, she feels that as long as she doesn't say it completely and doesn't tear the last layer, at least she can still have a little self-esteem.

She finally took the chopsticks, the bittersweet chocolate in her mouth had melted away, and she lowered her head and stirred the porridge in the food box again.

Brother and sister, ho... Sibling!

"Okay, you said brother and sister, do you want to stay with the bed tonight?"

Zhou Wei paused, looked up and looked at the infusion bottle again, the bottle was azithromycin, and a bright red prohibition mark was pasted on the bottle, telling that azithromycin needed to be infused slowly, and the huge bottle had to be infused for at least another three hours.

"I'll wait until you're done with the infusion before leaving. ”

……

Chang An took a taxi to send Chang Jiahui home.

When the taxi arrived at the door, Chang Jiahui also asked, "Do you want to go in and see Dad?"

Chang An shook his head, "Next time." ”

Although Chang Jiahui usually babbles, she actually knows this sister very well.

"Okay, then another day, not to mention that you have to be angry when your father sees you now. ”

How could Chang Wangde accept that he had a drunken daughter, not to mention that this daughter was still Chang An, who had always been well-behaved and likable in the eyes of others.

"Well, let's go inside, it's late!"

Chang An waved to Chang Jiahui in the car, Chang Jiahui walked to the community, just took two steps and turned back, "Sister, send me a note when you get home>......

Half an hour later, the taxi arrived at the gate of the Changhe community.

Chang An got out of the car after paying and walked to the villa.

The northwest wind howled in the winter night, although she was slightly drunk, but was blown by the wind for a while and felt that her mind was muddy, all the way back to the heart is still speculating, is he home? may have taken a bath and waited for her at home, so thinking about the pace unconsciously accelerated, soon arrived at the door, pushed open the courtyard door, the induction lights in the yard lit up, the lawn after a while of wind, snow and winter frost suppression, the trend of decay is more serious, at this time has been completely yellow, and there is no car in the parking space at all.

Chang An opened the door with the last bit of hope, and the huge room was deserted.

No one.

She threw away her bag and scarf and tried to calm down, turned on the light, took her slippers, and the mobile phone on the hallway suddenly "dripped", she didn't care about taking off her shoes and stepping on the cold ground, and quickly got up to get the phone.

Sure enough, it was Zhou Wei's > she opened it, and there were two lines of words on it - "The company has something to do temporarily, and it may be late to go back, you go to bed first, don't wait for me." ”

Listen, this is really a model of a good husband.

Chang An leaned her back against the door, the wind in the yard blew on her face, her hair was blown up, and her brain hurt even more.

……

It was past ten o'clock after taking a shower.

Chang An drank half a glass of honey and went upstairs, and Zhou Wei slept with her last night, so the pillow and futon were full of his taste.

Chang An hated her sensitive sense of smell, and this seemingly absent body odor made her more and more awake in the dark.

It is said that he borrows alcohol to kill his sorrows, but who knows that when he is drunk to five or six minutes, his mind will become more and more sober, so Chang An lies on the bed full of Zhou Wei's body odor and recalls the scene of the whole night, the shutters closed, the back of the two of them leaving the company together, and the > that he obviously lied about just nowIs...... It's better to have a few more drinks, and simply drink until you are completely drunk, and at least you can get a good night's sleep.

So Chang An got up and went downstairs, took another bottle of wine from the wine cabinet, most of the bottle went down, she lay on the sofa on her side and stared at the lamp in the courtyard outside the floor-to-ceiling window, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, one o'clock...... Chang An felt that his patience and ability to "deceive himself" were crumbling little by little.

The night is long, and the liquor is spent.

She finally couldn't help but want to send a text message back to Zhou Xin, asking where he was, if he was lying to her, but as soon as the interface opened, the first item in the circle of friends was Zhou Xin's update, posted a photo, secretly fluttering in the environment, I couldn't tell where it was, but I could be sure that it must be an extremely private space, and there was no face on the photo, only two hands were taken, the white one covered was obviously Zhou Xin's hand, and the dark brown skin below, the finger bones were raised, slightly curved, and there was a tiny mole at the tiger's mouth.

Chang An's last bit of persistence was shattered.

What she said last night, give each other a little time, a little consideration, after all, the relationship between more than 20 years of day and night, how can it be said that it is forgotten, it turns out that it is really a prophecy! But Chang An felt suffocated in his heart, he felt that everything was okay before he experienced it, and he didn't believe that he could have feelings for a man in just a few days, but at this moment, her heart was like a knife, and she had to look at it directly.

It turns out that sometimes feelings and time are not necessarily proportional!

Chang An turned around, hugged the phone in his arms, curled up, and cried until the echo could be heard in the empty living room.

……

Zhou Xin woke up in the early hours of the morning and found that Zhou Xin was lying on the bed staring at him with his eyes open.

He shook his head, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

Zhou Xin got up: "I see that you are sleeping very soundly, and I am probably tired enough to choke on the Luyang Lake project recently, so I can't bear it." ”
