Chapter 86: The Past Comes Together

"You like Mr. Zhan, so you slander me in front of him. Gu Zixi's face was pale, and when he said this, he was not very angry.

She wasn't angry at all, and she didn't really care.

Really, as long as Zhan Tingyu is willing, she will immediately replace Gu Zixi with Gu Ruo, and she will raise her hands in approval!

She didn't want to stay by his side at all, and lived in fear.

Gu Ruo looked surprised, probably because the quilt Zixi bluntly pierced what he thought in his heart, his expression was slightly ashamed, he bit his lip, and stood there, not admitting it, nor denying it.

Zi Xi smiled, "Mr. Zhan can see your acting skills, and I can see it too." From the first time we met, I knew that your ambitions and your looks definitely didn't match. But it doesn't matter, the relationship between me and Mr. Zhan is indeed not an earth-shattering true love. If you like him, then let it go, but one thing, don't try to win his favor by slandering me. ”

Zi Xi paused, staring at Gu Ruo's face that turned from red to white, "I can tell you very clearly that Mr. Zhan doesn't like women who play tricks. ”

After saying this, Zi Xi took one last look at Gu Ruo, no matter how ugly her face was, she raised her feet and left.

Zhu Hong also glanced at Gu Ruo and followed Zi Xi away.

In the restaurant, Zixi ordered a meal and beckoned Zhu Hong to sit down together.

"No need, Miss Gu, I'll wait for you outside. Zhu Hong politely refused, then turned around and walked out of the restaurant and went to wait outside.

This is the rule that Zhan Tingyu gave him, so Zixi didn't force it.

was looking down at the mail, and suddenly his shoulder was slapped heavily, "Gu Zixi!"

Zi Xi was startled, and when he turned around, he saw a young girl wearing exquisite makeup and a famous brand all over her body.

It's about the same age as Zi Xi, but she is dressed very luxuriously, Zi Xi casually estimates that this girl's outfit is at least six figures.

When Zixi looked at her, the girl had already sat down across the table, "I really didn't expect to meet you here, I haven't seen you for a long time, Gu Zixi." ”

This girl, Zixi recognizes her, but she is not familiar with her, and she is not a good friend, so she is still a rival in love.

This girl's name is Xu Lai, she studied in high school with Zixi, her family has a mine, she is a rich daughter, and in school, she is also a princess who is held by the stars, and she is the most dazzling one wherever she goes. It is also one of Shen Xiao's many pursuers and admirers, the one with the craziest behavior and the most persistent pursuit.

She chased Shen Xiao for two years.

No matter how Shen Xiao refused, she didn't care, she wrote love letters, gave luxury gifts, and announced her love for him on the school forum...... In short, all the romantic means that can be thought of have been practiced by Xu Lai.

It was also because of these excesses that Xu Lai was criticized by the school leaders and was almost expelled.

Her father was ashamed, but he was such a daughter for half his life, and he was reluctant to do anything, so he had to send her to study abroad in her third year of high school.

This time, it is more than a year.

Among Shen Xiao's many suitors, Xu Lai is undoubtedly the most threatening.

Because she has a good family background, she is good-looking, and the most important thing is that she is smart, and when she saw Zixi for the first time, she could already see that Zixi liked Shen Xiao.

She had poked it in front of Zi Xi, but she had never poked it in front of Shen Xiao.

She's smart, and she's scary.

When Zixi saw her, she was unconsciously a little nervous, probably afraid that she would see something again.

Zi Xi lowered her eyes, and greeted with no emotion: "Xu Lai, long time no see." ”

"Are you alone?" Xu Lai looked around, his eyes searching the restaurant, "What about Shen Xiao, I've been abroad for more than a year, he should also graduate, you should also blossom, right?"

Zi Xi can't tell whether this tone is good or bad. It's sincerity, it's sarcasm.

"Nope. Zixi shook his head and said very calmly: "We are not together." ”

"Really?" Xu Lai looked at her with some suspicion, with five points of belief and five points of disbelief in his eyes.

Zixi suddenly understood that she was testing herself!

Sure enough, dealing with smart people is a drain on your brains. Like her, maybe she can't turn her brain around, and she will be trapped.

Terrible!

Zi Xi took a deep breath, "Really." ”

Xu Lai pouted, "Hmm, he doesn't like you?"

Zi Xi paused, "No." ”

"What's that?" Xu Lai stared at Zixi with an interesting expression, and she didn't want to miss every expression on her face.

Zi Xi tugged at the corners of her mouth, "You're so smart, you must be able to guess." ”

"I can't guess. Xu Lai shrugged, "I don't want to guess, but if you're not together, then I still have a chance." However, the fact that he hasn't noticed that you like him for so long can only mean two things. First, he is very sluggish, and in terms of feelings, he still needs someone to open up the light for him. Two, you're a failure. I've never seen anyone like someone, like someone for so long, without the slightest progress, and without being noticed. ”

Zi Ximo, because what she said was right, she was speechless to refute.

Even though it was Shen Xiao who opened the mouth first, it was Shen Yao who was the matchmaker in the middle.

Sometimes when she was in a trance, she would think: If Shen Yao hadn't told Shen Xiao that she liked him, wouldn't he have found out in his life?

"Alright. Xu Lai patted the table, stood up, and looked at Zi Xi with a smile: "There is a high school reunion tomorrow night, you can come too." ”

Without waiting for Zixi to say anything, a business card was already placed in front of her, "This is my number, you can contact me at any time." ”

After Xu Lai finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Zi Xi looked at the back of her leaving, and her mind was a little trance-like, as if the memory had penetrated all the lines of time at once, and she had returned to the time of the high school campus......

At that time, she had just liked Shen Xiao for a short time, and she had to ask the driver to take her to the vicinity of Shen Yao's house every day, and then wait for Shen Yao and Shen Xiao to take the car to school together.

From the moment she liked Shen Xiao, she never let a driver send her to school throughout high school.

At first, she did it on purpose. Later, she almost became a habit - waiting at that intersection every day, seeing Shen Xiao coming out of the yard, her heart was full of flowers......

That heart-pounding feeling is really the most beautiful feeling in the world.

During the time when Xu Lai was chasing Shen Xiao, she was worried about insomnia, and she almost confessed to Shen Xiao.

Later, I heard Shen Yao say, "I asked my brother yesterday, she didn't like that Xu Lai at all, she felt like a cash cow, and she smelled of copper all over her body." ”

Of course, Shen Xiao's original words were definitely not like this, but after Shen Yao's "processing and transformation", it became like this.

However, the meaning should be more or less the same.

Zi Xi was relieved.

At that time, in school, although Xu Lai was a star, there were many people who looked down on her behind her back, because everyone said that her father did business with a clear conscience, and the business he did was nine times out of ten because it was stained with human life, and the money was not clean.

Zixi didn't know how many of these words were true and how many were false, she couldn't hate Xu Lai, and she didn't know why, she always felt that there was a lot of tenacity in this girl.

Moreover, she is indeed smart.

After a meal, Gu Ruo and Xu Lai had no appetite, so Zixi ate some casually, drank some soup, and returned to the company to continue the afternoon's work.

In the afternoon, she received a call from Shen Yao.

"Pity, do you have time for the night?"

Zi Xi thought that Shen Xiao came to her before, and subconsciously replied: "I have a meeting in the evening, and I am a little busy." What's wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing, I was looking for you for a meal. But if you're busy, then forget it, I'll find Chen Lu together. Shen Yao said.

Looking for Chen Lu together?

That is, there should be nothing to do with Shen Xiao?

Zixi paused, "Okay, I'm sorry, Yaoyao......"

"It's okay, it's okay. ”

This little episode, Zixi didn't pay much attention to it.

But when she got off work, she saw Shen Yao waiting there at the door of the company.

Zi Xi was stunned for a moment, Shen Yao had already walked over with her bag, "Xixi, are you off work?"

Zixi was carrying a bag in her hand, and she had no choice but to lie, so she had to say, "Well, it's time to get off work." ”

Shen Yao didn't ask her about whether she could have a meeting, and grabbed her arm, "That's right, let's have a meal together." ”

"You're not...... Did you make an appointment with Chen Lu?"

"Chen Lu has to work overtime at night, I miss you, I haven't eaten with you for a long time, and I'm afraid of disturbing you, so I came over and waited for you directly. Shen Yao said as she pulled her to the car, "Let's go, I'll treat you to something delicious." ”

Zhu Hong followed behind them, wanting to speak and stopping, "Miss Gu......"

Zixi turned around, "You go back first." ”

Signaled to him with her eyes, Zhan Tingyu's side, she will find a way to solve it.

Zhu Hong nodded, "If you have something, call me at any time." ”

"Hmm. Zi Xi nodded, bent down and got into Shen Yao's car.

"Pity, what do you want to eat?" asked Shen Yao in the car.

"Going for a barbecue?"

Barbecues, draft beers, street stalls on a midsummer night, starry night sky, and street traffic are her favorite scenes.

Half an hour later, the two sat down at a roadside stall in the night market where they often eat.

After ordering the food, the draft beer also came up, and Zixi felt thirsty, so she opened a bottle casually and took two sips.

"It's a pity. Shen Yao sat opposite her, her hands on her cheeks, and looked at her with a somewhat blank expression, "My brother is going to City A." ”

Zi Xi drank for a moment, and then responded: "Hmm." ”

Shen Yao pursed her lips, looked at her for a while, and got up, "I'll buy a cup of milk tea." ”

Zixi was stunned for a moment, "Isn't there a draft beer?"

"I don't want to drink that, my aunt is here, I want something warm. Shen Yao took the bag and left.

Zi Xi watched her figure disappear into the lights of the night market, suddenly remembered something, took out her mobile phone, found Zhan Tingyu's number and dialed it.

Just took advantage of Shen Yao's absence, made a phone call to report to Zhan Tingyu, and when he went back at night, he went crazy again!

The phone rang twice and was connected, and there was silence on the other end.

Zixi pursed her lips and said, "That, Mr. Zhan, I'll go out to dinner with my friends and I'll go back later." ”

The tone was tentative.

But over there, it was still quiet.

Not happy?

"Mr. Zhan?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for another two seconds, and a gentle female voice rang: "I am gentle." ”
