Chapter 2: The Confusion of the First Snow
Walking into the company, Wang Xueyan saw several pairs of surprised eyes, especially Li Danni: "Oh my God, aren't you engaged today? Why do you still come to work? Why don't you hurry up and go to the beauty salon to make your face and make a styling!"
He Haiyang, a classmate who graduated from the same industry as her and entered the company with her, also looked at her puzzled: "Why didn't you notify us in advance of your engagement?"
Wang Xueyan said finely: "Isn't this the most nervous time? I adjusted the design draft at home yesterday, and I just brought it over to show you." In the afternoon I took a vacation. ”
He Haiyang approached her and stood in front of her: "Xue Yan, you and Xuanwen must be happy, Xuanwen's heart can't fit anyone else except you." ”
Wang Xueyan looked at him: "I will do my best." ”
He Haiyang hesitated and said: "Li ......"
Wang Xueyan had already interrupted him: "There is no him in this world anymore. After speaking, he looked at him reproachfully: "You shouldn't mention him again, especially today." ”
He Haiyang didn't care, but said more sincerely: "Xueyan, I hope Xuanwen can be happy, and of course I hope you can be happy." That's all. ”
Li Danni came over with a fax draft, with an apologetic face: "Xue Yan, Aoke's opinion draft is here, asking us to meet next week." We have to have a meeting this morning. ”
"Okay, I see, I'm sure. Wang Xueyan took over decisively and no longer paid attention to He Haiyang.
All morning, Yige was in a nervous meeting, after all, AudioCodes is a big customer.
It wasn't until Li Danni looked up and saw the dazzling sunlight from the floor-to-ceiling windows that she exclaimed: "Xue Yan, it's time for you to put on makeup!
Wang Xueyan was also shocked: "I almost forgot, then I'll go first, and the rest will be hard for you." ”
Hurriedly walking past He Haiyang's position, He Haiyang said with a smile: "Happy engagement." ”
Beauty parlor.
Looking at Wang Xueyan with exquisite makeup in the mirror, the stylist couldn't help but praise: "Miss Wang, you are so beautiful." ”
It is indeed beautiful, the skin is like porcelain, the eyeshadow shining on the flickering eyes, because the eyes are large, the pupils appear clear and bright, the eyelashes are long and curved and slightly trembling, the lips are thin and slightly closed and sexy, and the slightly chestnut hair makes charming little curls, fluffy on the cheeks, charming and moving.
Wang Xueyan smiled: "Thank you for your craftsmanship." ”
"The main thing is that you're too beautiful. ”
Walking out into the street, at the beginning of twilight, it was still a little cold, and there was a hint of light in the sky.
The engagement banquet was very simple, just calling relatives and closest friends of the two families.
But the hour hand was already pointing to 5 p.m., and it was time to hurry.
A man and a woman who looked like lovers walked by, and the girl asked the boy softly, "It's so cold today, is it going to snow?"
Yes, is it going to snow? Wang Xueyan also pondered.
Quickening her pace, she heard a cheer beside her: "Wow! Snow, it's snowing!"
With an inexplicable sigh in her heart, she raised her head and looked at the sky.
Under the clear sky, there are really snowflakes falling.
Slowly, gently, it landed in the palm of her hand, and was warmed into water by her hand.
Every year at the beginning of the snow, she thinks of a person who, when she was 18 years old, was the first person to tell her that it was snowing.
This is no exception.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and she stood still, her eyes drifting far away.
She looked across the street, in the dim light of the streetlights, hurried pedestrians.
There was a person who looked up at the snow like her, and he was so attentive to it.
That smile, that look, that look, was actually the picture she had dreamed of for 10 years.
"Li Mingze....." she spat out the name that had been hidden in her heart for many years.
Before she knew it, the phone slipped to the ground and she didn't even notice it.
That person, the person who is also watching the early snow of this year, is not Li Mingze, who has disappeared for 10 years, who is it?
That person once said happily: "Xue Yan, look out the window, it's snowing!"
The man skipped class with her to watch the snow, and they built two little snowmen, and he put them side by side.
The man picked up a handful of snow and threw it into the sky, kissing her softly on the lips as she gazed at the snow scattered in front of her eyes.
Her heart was beating so hard that there was a red light on the sidewalk, but she rushed out in spite of it, causing a sudden braking and a sharp horn on the street.
She crossed the road as if she had lost her soul, because the man had already walked away.
He's walking forward, and if she doesn't keep up, she won't be able to see him.
He's walking, and she's walking.
He walked so fast that she almost trotted after him.
But he walked faster and faster, and even entered an alley.
She pushed away all the people and things that stood in her way, and chased forward desperately, chasing the man who had disappeared in her life for ten years.
However, no matter how much she quickened her pace, the man disappeared before her eyes again, as if nothing had happened.
Zheng Zheng looked at the bustling crowd on the street, and there was no longer that figure.
She turned around in disbelief, confused, sad, and unwilling to circulate in her eyes.
Running a few steps, she muttered to herself: "Li Mingze, Li Mingze ......"
The Victoria Hall was warm, and Li Xuanwen was full of joy.
He decorated the scene in sky blue and white, which is Wang Xueyan's favorite color.
Time passed little by little, relatives arrived one after another, and the heroine had not yet appeared.
The twilight of the night was heavy, and Li Xuanwen's father, Li Hong, was also a little unable to sit still, and his mother Shen Xinhui was already impatient.
Originally, she didn't like this future daughter-in-law very much, and always said that her son was too accommodating to Wang Xueyan, and he would definitely have no status when he got married in the future.
On such an important occasion today, Wang Xueyan didn't come until now, and she was angry.
Wang Xueyan's mother, Song Yizhen, also had a burst of embarrassment on her face, and kept apologizing to her mother-in-law.
Almost all of them kept calling Wang Xueyan, and no one answered.
All the relatives went from happily going to the banquet to being puzzled, to leaving in confusion like watching a play, but Wang Xueyan never appeared.
The whole atmosphere was very depressing, and Shen Xinhui's emotions were almost on the verge of exploding.
Li Hong calmed down at the moment, and he could see that Song Yizhen was very anxious although he was embarrassed.
He didn't comfort his wife, but walked to Li Xuanwen's side: "You quickly contact the nearby police station, and then contact a friend on this line to see if you have received any accident alarms." ”
Yes, compared to the failure of the engagement banquet, Wang Xueyan's safety is more important.
Li Xuanwen has been in contact everywhere for a long time, and sometimes, no news is the best news.
He even thought of the most terrible thing, and whenever this terrible thought came to him, he quickly shook his head to shake it off.
Just when everyone was anxious, Wang Xueyan appeared pale and depressed.
Because she had been running in the snow for a long time, her hair was all wet, and she was close to her forehead, and her eyes were empty, almost moving in front of everyone.
Li Xuanwen rushed to her, grabbed her arms, looked her up and down, worried: "Xue Yan, where have you been? Why are you here now? What's wrong?"
Before Wang Xueyan could speak, Shen Xinhui was already angry: "Does this look like something is wrong? If you are not injured or sick, you are fine at all! I really don't know what I am thinking about every day!"
Li Hong pulled her lightly: "Xinhui!"
However, the latter did not give him face, gave Wang Xueyan a roll of his eyes, and threw his hand away.
"Xue Yan, tell your mother, are you okay? Is there anything uncomfortable?" In the end, it is her mother, and the first thing she is worried about is not the unsuccessful engagement, but the health and safety of the child.
Wang Xueyan had faces eager to get an answer in front of her eyes, and her heart stopped at the street where Li Mingze disappeared. Looking at Li Xuanwen's eager face, he opened his mouth slightly and said, "Xuanwen!"
"Where the hell have you been? Do you know that everyone has been waiting all night!" Li Xuanwen finally couldn't control himself and yelled at Wang Xueyan.
"Xuanwen, I... I saw Li Mingze. Wang Xueyan couldn't hold back any longer, and as soon as the words fell, full of tears fell.
Hearing this, Song Yizhen and Li Xuanwen were stunned.
Li Xuanwen reacted first, hugged her in his arms, hugged her deeply, stroked her head with both hands, and kissed her hair: "It's okay, it's okay." Xue Yan, it's okay, everything is over. I'll send you home now. ”
After speaking, he turned to his assistant, as well as Chen Chen, their college classmate, "I'll send Xue Yan back first, and you will take care of it here." ”
Chen Chen, who regarded Xue Yan as a goddess, responded: "You send Xue Yan home quickly, and I will take care of my uncle and aunt." ”
He felt the weakness of Wang Xueyan leaning on his shoulder, and he was distressed but didn't know how to comfort him.
Back at Wang Xueyan's apartment, he wiped her hair with a dry towel, a delicate hairstyle that was supposed to appear at their engagement banquet, but now all out of shape.
Wang Xueyan seemed to have exhausted all the strength of his body, and without saying a word, Ren Li Xuanwen fiddled with himself.
Li Xuanwen stroked her face, and the coldness on her face came from her fingertips, she must be sad, right?
"Xue Yan, are you really seeing him?" he asked hesitantly.
Wang Xueyan suddenly looked up at him as if he saw hope: "Xuanwen, it's really him, how could I be wrong?!"
Li Xuanwen felt sour in his heart: "Xue Yan, I know you can't forget him." I never wanted to replace him. However, he is no longer there. It must be because we're getting engaged and you're so nervous that you're hallucinating. ”
Wang Xueyan grabbed his hand tightly: "Xuanwen, this is not an illusion, I really saw him." Although he wears glasses, it's really him, it's him!
"Then did you catch up with him?" Li Xuanwen asked softly, as if he wanted to escape something.
In an instant, Wang Xueyan lost his anger: "No, he walked very fast, and there were many people on the street, I chased several streets, but I didn't catch up." ”
Li Xuanwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "So, Xue Yan, all this is really an illusion. ”
"Is it a hallucination?"
"It's an illusion because you're so nervous, and being engaged to me makes you nervous. ”
Wang Xue apologized: "I'm not nervous, Xuanwen, you have to believe me, I am willing to get engaged to you." ”
"Of course I believe you, fool. You're tired and excited. Now, you don't have to think about anything, go to sleep first! I'll accompany you, okay?" Li Xuanwen said softly.
Gently took off her coat, put her down, covered her with a quilt, and held her hand: "I love you, Xue Yan, I will take care of you." Believe me. ”
The dim desk lamp, the soft voice, and the excitement and loss of the whole night made Huang Xueyan gradually tired, she closed her eyes slightly, and felt a little guilty: "Xuanwen, I'm sorry." I didn't mean to. ”
As soon as the words fell, Xuanwen kissed her gently.
She wasn't in the mood for that, and let him kiss him.
Xuanwen cupped her cold face, suppressing the heartache, he hugged her tightly: "I love you, I won't love any other woman except you." ”
