Chapter 64: Pretending to Love You Deeply

"Have you eaten yet? Would you like to do some more? Ning Chenguang asked Wu Zixi with concern.

"The meals here are good, but if you made it for me, it would have been even more perfect. Or we don't sit here, but sit in our own home, how nice it would be!" Wu Zixi suddenly wanted to have a home, there is no home in this city, no matter how brilliant your career is, you are always an outsider. The city won't recognize your existence, but it's not so easy to buy a home in the city. Although Ning Chenguang and Wu Zixi are working well now, and the two of them earn a lot, if they want to buy a house in Shanghai, their company is located in a prosperous area of Shanghai, and the high housing prices here are scary, so it is a little impossible for them to buy a house here. Even if they take out a loan in the bank, it is not realistic for them to repay the mortgage every month, and they are still young, and they don't want to become a house slave too early and be in debt. If you buy a house in the suburbs, it is inconvenient to go to work, and if you drive by yourself, you have to spend a lot of money to buy a car, Ning Chenguang's current car is assigned to him by the company, and to put it bluntly, this car has nothing to do with him.

Wu Zixi drank wine tonight, her face was a little red, she said that having a home was not an impulse, in this city except for Ning Chenguang, she was helpless, she wanted to have a home, so that she could have a sense of security and belonging.

"Don't worry, we'll have a home. Ning Chenguang walked over and hugged Wu Zixi, he knew that Wu Zixi wanted to live a stable life, and his desperate work over the years was to have a home in this city as soon as possible, and to live that simple and warm life with his beloved girl as soon as possible.

"You know what? I'm really tired, I really want to get a good night's sleep, wake up and change the world, I can change the way of life. Wu Zixi hugged Ning Chenguang and cried, she didn't know why she was crying, but the tears couldn't stop flowing out. He is bent on finding his dream in a big city, and she has always thought that she can only live happily in a big city, but in her life in Shanghai for a while, she has no happiness at all, she can only feel tired, and her life is all occupied by work. Every day at dawn, she has to go to work, she can't go back until it gets dark, there is too little time for him every day, she feels tired, this is not the life she wants, she doesn't like the current life at all, but she can't change this reality, after crying, she still has to face reality, she has to work, life does not allow her to be vulnerable.

"Don't worry, my dear, everything will be fine. Ning Chenguang also felt very tired, but he was a man, he couldn't back down, he wanted to give his beloved woman a home and a happy life, so no matter what kind of problems life threw at him, he had to continue, and no matter how difficult life was for him, he had to endure it.

"Let's get married! I want to have a family. Wu Zixi proposed marriage to Ning Chenguang.

"Married, dear, are you sure you're not drunk?" Ning Chenguang couldn't believe his ears, was he proposing to him in the afternoon? This is not like her style! Although he and Wu Zixi have not known each other for a long time, he still knows Wu Zixi to some extent. Wu Zixi is different from most women, many women look for a job just to have a place to settle down, but Wu Zixi doesn't treat her current job like this, she regards this job as her own career, she faces it with twelve points of enthusiasm every day, she works harder than others, so she is more tired than others.

"Of course I'm not drunk, I'm serious, if you want to marry me. Wu Zixi said to Ning Chenguang very seriously, she had wanted to mention marriage to Ning Chenguang for a while, but she couldn't wipe her face on weekdays, she was a girl after all, how could this kind of thing make her a girl speak first, so she drank a little more wine today, and she had the courage to say this. Wu Zixi didn't know what was wrong with her, she suddenly wanted to have a home, and suddenly wanted to have a shoulder to rely on. This city is like a wilderness, there are many temptations in the wilderness, and at the same time there are many dangers, she is in this wilderness, she is very afraid, she has no sense of security at all, she wants to have a safe haven, so that she can have a sense of security. And now, the only person who can give her a sense of security is Ning Chenguang, and if she is no longer lonely and afraid, they must get married, get married, and have a home, so that she truly belongs to the city of Shanghai, otherwise she will always be an outsider in the eyes of Shanghainese.

"Of course I want to marry you, but isn't it a little inconsiderate to get married now?" Ning Chenguang didn't want to get married so early, of course, it wasn't because he didn't like Wu Zixi, on the contrary, he wanted to get married earlier than Wu Zixi, but his current situation didn't allow him to get married now!

"Don't you love me at all, that's why you don't want to marry me?" Wu Zixi broke free of Ning Chenguang's embrace, and she questioned Ning Chenguang sharply. She thought that after she proposed marriage, Ning Chenguang would go crazy with joy, but she didn't expect him to be excited at all, and he showed a very indifferent look, he didn't think about marrying her at all, it was just wishful thinking on her own.

"How could I not love you anymore, you are the woman I love most in my life. I also want to marry you as soon as possible, take your hand on the red carpet as soon as possible, and have a home with you as soon as possible, but now our situation does not allow us to get married so early! "Ning Chenguang doesn't want to get married now because the most important thing for him now is career, not marriage, if they get married now, they won't be happy, rather than this, it's better to take advantage of the fact that they are young now, do a good job, and when they have a certain economic foundation, it's not too late to get married!

"Then you swear that you will only be good to me in this life, and I will believe you. Wu Zixi asked Ning Chenguang to swear.

"Okay, I swear, I swear to be good to Wu Zixi alone, if I break my promise, let me go out and be hit by a car and die. Ning Chenguang still swore an oath, because he didn't really believe in the oath at all.

There is only one word difference between an oath and a lie, but many people still choose to believe in the oath, this oath is the most beautiful love word if it is used well, and if it is not used well, it becomes a naked deception. I believe that everyone who swears is sincere when they say those words, and they also want to grow old with the people they love, but many people scatter as they walk, and the oath becomes a lie, pale and powerless.

"Since that's the case, I'll believe you!" Wu Zixi saw that Ning Chenguang had made a poisonous oath, and she no longer embarrassed him, she asked Ning Chenguang to swear not to make Ning Chenguang abide by anything, but just swore that her heart would be more steady, in fact, she didn't believe in the oath at all, she was the same as Ning Chenguang, one asked to swear, just wanted to get a promise, and the other swore without hesitation, just to make her believe that he was sincere, this is the true meaning of the oath.

When Ning Chenguang and Wu Zixi came out of the restaurant, the street lights on the street were all lit up, the traffic on the road was like flowing water, and the sidewalks were always so crowded, and the city was only the slowest time at this time. At this time, people come out of the house after eating, middle-aged people with dogs, young couples with children, and elderly people who walk for a while and stop for a while, they are all leisurely and enjoy this rare quiet. This time of the day is the most beautiful time, Ning Chenguang took Wu Zixi's hand, no one knows them here, they boldly show affection, they don't dare to show affection so blatantly in the company, the company clearly stipulates that office romance is not allowed, otherwise both of them will be fired.

Li Lan has always wanted to find an opportunity to show her heart to Zhou Fei, but there is always no suitable opportunity, and every time she misses the opportunity is because of Wu Zixi, Wu Zixi is now the biggest obstacle between her and Zhou Fei. She and Wu Zixi have been friends for four years, she doesn't want to hurt Wu Zixi, although Zhou Fei no longer belongs to Wu Zixi, but she still feels sorry for Wu Zixi, so she always runs away from her heart, and she misses a lot of opportunities.

After coming out of the western restaurant with Zhou Fei, Zhou Fei took a taxi first, and she walked to the restaurant where Wu Zixi and Ning Chenguang ate alone, she thought about it for a long time at the door, she wanted to walk in and tell her in front of Wu Zixi that she liked Zhou Fei, but she just didn't have the courage to walk in. She was afraid to see Wu Zixi's eyes, she was afraid that after she said this, they wouldn't even be friends in the future. She understands Wu Zixi, although she took the initiative to give up Zhou Fei, but now if she hears that she and Zhou Fei are good, she will definitely hate her, she will think that she snatched Zhou Fei, and maybe think that she has already been good with Zhou Fei, so the fault has nothing to do with her, and it has become her Li Lan's fault.

No matter what, Li Lan is going to face Wu Zixi, no matter how Wu Zixi looks at her, she is now determined to get along with Zhou Fei, and now she knows that love can make people involuntarily, and for the person you love, you are willing to do anything for him, even if you lose a friend for many years.

Li Lan thought about it, she still couldn't talk to Wu Zixi about it so nakedly, after all, they had been friends for many years, and she didn't want to lose this friend, so she wanted to create an opportunity, pretend that they met inadvertently, and then test Wu Zixi to see if she still had Zhou Fei in her heart. So, Li Lan has been waiting outside the restaurant, after she saw Wu Zixi and Ning Chenguang come out, she quietly followed behind them, she took a photo of Wu Zixi and Ning Chenguang holding hands with her mobile phone as she walked, she thought that if Zhou Fei saw these photos, he would be dead, and then he would naturally pay attention to her.

Wu Zixi and Ning Chenguang walked unhurriedly, Ning Chenguang's hand was on Wu Zixi's shoulder, and Wu Zixi's head was leaning on Ning Chenguang's chest, and one hand was wrapped around Ning Chenguang's waist, this is a common action of all couples, and only at this age, and only people in love will ignore the eyes of passers-by and show off their love in this strange city. From behind, Ning Chenguang and Zhou Fei are a little similar, but there is a slight hunch on his back, maybe it is because he has been sitting in the office for a long time! It can be seen that Wu Zixi is very happy now, and it can also be seen that Ning Chenguang likes Wu Zixi very much. Li Lan looked at this scene, she suddenly envied Wu Zixi, when she was in school, there was Zhou Fei by her side who loved her, and now there is another man who loves her, Wu Zixi is lucky, she gets everything a woman can get. She has a natural beauty, a job that many people envy, and a handsome boyfriend, and she has everything a woman wants. When she was in school, Li Lan set off Wu Zixi, no matter where she went, Wu Zixi would always attract the eyes of many boys, but she was bleak. Now, Wu Zixi is still so likeable, there is no shortage of suitors around her, and she is still alone, although they are not together now, but compared with Wu Zixi, she is still a bleak person, and now she finally met a person who makes her heartbeat, but she still can't escape the shadow of Wu Zixi, maybe she was born to play a supporting role.

"It's really you! I thought I had the wrong person, but I didn't expect to meet you here, what a coincidence. Li Lan pretended to see Wu Zixi inadvertently, she stepped forward and patted Wu Zixi, pretending to be surprised to meet her here.

"Li Lan, it's really you! Great, I didn't expect to meet you here, God is too good to me. Wu Zixi didn't expect to meet Li Lan here, she knew that Li Lan was also working in Shanghai, but she had been very busy, so she didn't bother to go up to find Li Lan, but she didn't expect to meet here today, they hadn't been together for a long time, and she wanted to talk to Li Lan.

"Who is this?" Li Lan pretended not to know the relationship between Ning Chenguang and Wu Zixi, and she asked Wu Zixi with a very surprised expression.

"He's my boyfriend, his name is Ning Chenguang. Wu Zixi is not at all uncomfortable, she is as comfortable when she introduced Ning Chenguang as she was when she introduced Zhou Fei, this is where Wu Zixi is different from others, she accepts new things faster than many people.

Li Lan also shook hands with Ning Chenguang, and the two of them knew each other.

"You go back first! I want to talk to Li Lan, you don't have to accompany us. Wu Zixi let Ning Chenguang go back first, she didn't want him to hear the conversation between her and Li Lan, all she and Li Lan could say was the little things in college, and when it came to college, it was inevitable that Zhou Fei would not be mentioned, for people in love, no one wanted to mention the past emotional experience, Ning Chenguang would be unhappy when he heard this, rather than this, it was better to let him go back to rest as soon as possible.

Ning Chenguang knew from Li Lan's words just now that Wu Zixi had a lot of things he didn't know, he had never asked Wu Zixi about the past, and Wu Zixi had never mentioned it, but everyone was a person with a story, and Wu Zixi would be no exception. Ning Chenguang knew that Wu Zixi and Li Lan didn't want him to know what they said, so he left very interestingly.
