Although Chu Tianqi is very disgusted with this private room now, he still accepts this reality, because it is the right thing to meet with the head of the Investment Management Section of the Municipal Development and Planning Commission.

With that in mind, he dialed the number again, and a standard Mandarin female voice came from the phone: "The phone you made is off." "I dialed it twice more and it was the same voice.

Without getting through to the other party's phone, Chu Tianqi had no choice but to sit down and dial again while waiting for a while. Time passed little by little, the phone was dialed again and again, and the same voice on the phone was said over and over again. In the reception hall, young men and women dressed up in fashion come in and out from time to time, and middle-aged and elderly people come in from time to time. Most of them are holding arms with the opposite sex, snuggling up, whispering from time to time, and their faces are full of happy smiles.

Chu Tianqi sat alone in the lobby waiting area, and from time to time someone threw surprised glances here, looking at this man who was alone and made frequent calls.

Chu Tianqi felt a little uncomfortable, and at the same time, he was also worried about running into acquaintances, especially a pair of acquaintances of the opposite sex who should not have appeared at the same time, so everyone would be embarrassed. Even for a long time to come, they will be wary of themselves, and they will worry that they will not have a door to their mouths and publicize what they have seen today. It is not excluded that they themselves leaked the matter for other reasons, and the culprit was themselves who were to blame.

So, Chu Tianqi got up and walked towards the private room, where he decided to wait. When he saw the words "Love Determined Today" on the door of the private room flashing with colored lights, his heart was stinging. It was in this private room that his beautiful vision was shattered, and his illusions were completely shattered.

He raised his hand anyway, pushed open the door and walked in. Looking at the once impressive scenery in the room, Chu Tianqi's mind was a little disturbed, and the scene at that time always lingered. But he still struggled to shake the scene that had appeared in his mind.

The tone, layout, and lighting in the room all revealed an ambiguous mood, which made Chu Tianqi suddenly feel that the place he had booked today was very inappropriate. Today is official contact with others, but such a place is clearly not suitable. If the other party is male, two big men sitting here will make the other person have a delusion about themselves and even doubt their sexuality. If the other party has a female surname, then the other party will have doubts about his motives and character, and even walk away in anger.

Thinking of this, Chu Tianqi dialed the phone again, he expected that the other party's phone could not get through, in that case, he would not hesitate to get up and leave the room. What made him depressed was that the other party's phone was connected, but no one answered. He waited patiently, expecting the other party to say the words "you made a mistake", so that he would be relieved. However, despite the call, the other party just didn't answer the phone.

Chu Tianqi hung up the phone, he decided that he had made the wrong call, and the other party had made the mistake and played himself by mistake. Now that the other party has achieved his goal, he will no longer answer his own calls to avoid unnecessary quarrels. In fact, Chu Tianqi would rather be in this situation, if the other party said the three words "typing wrong", not only would he not be a little dissatisfied with the other party's little prank, but would sincerely answer the other party's two words: "Thank you!"

There were still two minutes left before seven o'clock, and Chu Tianqi called again. He thought that the other party would definitely not answer the phone, and if that was the case, even if the other party was really the section chief, he would have a reason to explain tomorrow: the café could only stay in a private room until seven o'clock. At that time, if you say all the good things and ask the other party to have a good meal with a sincere attitude, and then give a small gift, the other party should not be completely unreasonable. If the other party is not the section chief, it will be treated as if nothing happened, and the right is just a small episode to consume his time this afternoon.

Sometimes, the idea is the opposite of reality, and the phone call that was thought to be impossible for no one to answer is answered. There was a clear sound of a person breathing from inside the phone, but there was no speech.

Chu Tianqi said into the mobile phone with a complicated mood: "Hello, are you the section chief? I will tell you that the café you booked is called Qianli ......."

At this point, he paused. Because the other party had not spoken, and he heard what seemed to be his own voice outside the door. He subconsciously stood up and opened the door.

Outside the door stood a man holding a mobile phone, a woman in a long lake-green dress to be exact. He was familiar with this long dress, because he had bought the same one for someone else. This person he is more familiar with, a person he never wants to see, who he doesn't want to remember, but he can't always forget-Meng Yuling.

Chu Tianqi was there for a while, and he didn't know why she was here.

Unlike Chu Tianqi's surprise, Meng Yuling outside the door had a different expression. She was neither as swollen and swollen as she had been in Daqinghe last winter, nor as melancholy as she had seen in the provincial capital in the first month.

Today's Meng Yuling's face was slightly red, with fine beads of sweat on her nose, and Hei Waterfall's long hair was scattered over her shoulders. There were two clouds of mist in her eyes, she looked so moving, so pitiful! Chu Tianqi had an illusion for a while, as if he had returned to that sweet time. At that time, the two had just graduated from college, and they were looking forward to a bright future. At that time, Meng Yuling was so innocent, and even the beads of sweat on her nose didn't seem to change at all. Just as he subconsciously wanted to stretch out his arms, she spoke, her voice knocking him back to reality, and he realized: it was all in the past.

"Is that you, is it really you?" said Meng Yuling emotionally.

Chu Tianqi was speechless.

"Do you remember here, you didn't hold a grudge against me?" Meng Yuling's voice was a little hoarse.

Chu Tianqi shook his head slightly, trying his best to drive away the hallucinations that appeared in his heart, and then said coldly: "You are Section Chief Meng?"

"Section Chief Meng?" Meng Yuling muttered softly.

"Yes, I made an appointment today with Section Chief Meng of the Municipal Planning Commission. Chu Tianqi already understood that Meng Yuling was the newly appointed section chief of the Investment Management Section of the Municipal Development and Planning Commission.

Meng Yuling's throat moved a few times, and she nodded gloomily: "I am." ”

"Please come in", Chu Tianqi said in an unusually calm tone, in fact, his heart was not as calm as it seemed. As he spoke, he took a step back, turned sideways, and moved out of the door.

Meng Yuling looked at the gesture of please made by Chu Tianqi's right hand, pursed her lips, and walked in with heavy steps.

"You may be seated. Chu Tianqi still said two words politely. Seeing Meng Yuling sitting on the chair, he said again, "Section Chief Meng, what do you order?" and handed over the exquisite list on the table with both hands.

Meng Yuling raised her head and stared at Chu Tianqi in front of her, he was so familiar, familiar face, familiar hairstyle, familiar eyes, familiar eyebrows, familiar lips.

He was so strange, so strange that she couldn't recognize it. His face is still so stylish, but it is more mature, and his eyes are still so bright, but they add more coldness.

He's still the same person, he's not changed. He is no longer the same person, he has changed, he has become a passerby with himself. I am not my former self, I am no longer the innocent girl, but I have become the current broken flower and willow.

Thinking of this, Meng Yuling gritted her teeth tightly and took the list. She flipped through the pages aimlessly, uttered two words, "whatever", and gently placed the list on the table.

Chu Tianqi took the blank order list on the table and wrote it down bit by bit. After writing, I gently pressed the button on the table, and soon, a waiter dressed in Western clothes knocked on the door and walked in, checked the list, and took it away.

While waiting for the meal to be served, neither of them spoke, just sat dryly. She lowered her head and stared at her feet. He took the order list on the table, flipping back and forth.

The food was served quickly, and after a while, the table was full. Looking at the silky latte in front of her, looking at the medium-rare steak, and looking at the pasta that had just been served, Meng Yuling's tears couldn't help but fall. These are all things she loves to eat, and he still remembers them, indicating that he still has himself in his heart.

Chu Tianqi, who was originally sinking like water, faced the former favorite who cried bad flowers, and the softest part of his heart was also touched, and he said softly: "Eat some, this is what you like." ”

As soon as Chu Tianqi spoke, Meng Yuling had mixed feelings, and couldn't help crying. Unlike before, he would lend her shoulder every time this time, but not today, she had to lie her head on the table, and her shoulders shook to the sound of crying.

In the end, Chu Tianqi still couldn't bear it. Standing up, he walked over, patted her on the shoulder, and comforted: "Don't cry, it's all over." ”

Unexpectedly, his comfort made her cry even louder. This man, who was deeply hurt by herself, has not really hated herself until now, which makes her even more guilty and more sad. Ignoring it, she threw her head into his arms and wept bitterly. At this point, it was impossible for Chu Tianqi to throw her aside, and simply let her snot and tears flow onto his body.

Meng Yuling cried like this for a long time, crying and crying, and her emotions gradually stabilized. As the bubbling tears poured out, the pain in her heart was alleviated a lot.

It's not a matter to cry like this, so Chu Tianqi said, "Eat it all, or waste it." "That's what he's used to do.

Whenever he said this, she would ignore the image of a lady and feast until the glass was finished. In fact, she was heartbroken for him, and it was not easy to make money.

Today, it still works. Sure enough, Meng Yuling stopped crying, raised her head, and let go of the arm that was holding him.

Chu Tianqi sat down in his seat, took out a few pieces of paper and handed them over: "Wipe it, it's all a cat." ”

Feeling his concern, Meng Yuling burst into tears and smiled. Facing the cup and plate in front of him, he launched an "attack". Soon, all that remained on the table were the utensils and the remnants on them.

She raised her pear blossom rain face again, looked at Chu Tianqi, and said dreamily, "Is all this true?"

Chu Tianqi was noncommittal, and returned with a bitter smile.
