Chapter 12: Memories Emerge

Qi Xiaoran seemed to be startled by him, leaned back, leaned back, leaned against the car window, flashed in his mind the photos he saw in the magazine, and muttered uncertainly: "I was in the magazine before...... I see, I've seen you wear a blue diamond stud earring. ”

She wasn't sure when Xiang Nuanyang was picked, with her own memory, she vaguely remembered that when she was in college, he had stepped into the financial circle, and when she saw him at that time, there seemed to be a little blue light flashing in her ears.

"Magazines?"

Xiang Nuanyang retracted his gaze suspiciously, he had not worn studs since graduating from college, so it was impossible for any magazine report to have a photo of studs.

However, there may be some exclusive revelations.

He pondered for a moment, and though he still had doubts, he didn't pursue any further questions.

"Get out of the car. ”

When Qi Xiaoran heard this, he suddenly received amnesty, and secretly let out a big sigh when he was not paying attention.

When I got out of the car, I first noticed a pillar with bright white paint standing in front of the three steps, two meters high, embedded with four large black three-dimensional characters that glittered in the night: Mansion No. 8.

She walked to Xiang Nuanyang's side, her eyes gently swept the surrounding environment, the walls were all white, and the wall pillars at the joints were painted dark gray, the decoration style was simple and cold, but it gave people an elegant and generous temperament.

Qi Xiaoran has always liked this kind of cold and European and American style decoration style, and from the moment she walked into the restaurant, she couldn't help but observe the surrounding furnishings.

"Do you like it here?" Xiang Nuanyang tilted his head slightly, noticing the look of surprise in her eyes.

"It's my first time here, but I love the way it is decorated at a glance. Qi Xiaoran did not hide her inner appreciation, turned her head, and smiled at him.

Xiang Nuanyang raised his eyebrows lightly and swept around, he had been to countless restaurants and hotels, and he had never carefully looked at the scenery everywhere he went. For him, it's just a place to eat and socialize.

Hearing her say this, he secretly wrote down the incident.

With the guidance of the waiter, they walked into a private room, saying that it was a private room, but in fact, a half-cut bamboo curtain was used to cover the booth and separate it from the aisle.

Qi Xiaoran flipped through the menu casually, raised his eyelids lightly to look at the person seated, pursed his lips and closed the menu.

"Mr. Xiang, it's my first time here, and I don't know what the signboard here is, so you should order it. ”

"Not picky eaters?" Xiang Nuanyang did not excuse himself.

"Don't pick, you can order as much as you like. She handed the closed menu to the waiter standing next to her, and looked at Xiang Nuanyang hesitantly, she wanted to open her mouth and ask him to order his favorite dishes, so that she could know his preferences from it.

However, she didn't dare to open her mouth until Xiang Nuanyang finished ordering and the waiter put away the menu and left.

Soon after the waiter served the food, Qi Xiaoran received a WeChat message from Chen Fangning.

"Xiao Ran, can you take so long to work overtime?"

"When are you coming back? I'm dying of boredom by myself!"

She stared at the two messages that popped up on the screen, and replied to her slowly: "I'm outside, I won't be back until later, have you eaten?"

"Didn't eat. ”

Qi Xiaoran just wanted to put the phone on the desktop, but she felt a shock in her hand, and Chen Fangning's message popped up, she tilted her head and thought for a while, "I'm eating out with Xiang Nuanyang, what do you want to eat?" I'll bring it to you." ”

This time, she held the phone in her hand and didn't put it away immediately.

Xiang Nuanyang found that she was looking down, not knowing what she was looking at, "Aren't you hungry?"

"Are you praying before a meal?"

Qi Xiaoran raised his head, met his teasing eyes, felt a trace of confusion, waved his hand, and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiang, I'm distracted." ”

"It's okay, let's eat. ”

She bowed slightly, then put the phone on the table and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the dishes.

She was chewing the food in her mouth carefully, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the screen of her mobile phone suddenly lit up, and new information kept popping up, the green icon of WeChat slid down line after row, and the mobile phone vibrated without stopping.

Xiang Nuanyang looked over, his clear and deep eyes were a little darker, and his unwavering facial expressions were unpredictable.

Qi Xiaoran took the mobile phone over, clicked on it, and Chen Fangning's WeChat dialog box kept popping up new messages, from just now to when she opened the mobile phone now, she was still swiping the screen in an endless stream, and there were only a few meanings back and forth: "Pick him, get drunk with him, pounce on him!"

She flipped up a few times and gave up, jumped directly to the bottom, and was about to reply to Chen Fangning, but when she saw the latest pleading expression from the other party, she couldn't help laughing.

A silver bell-like laugh overflowed from her lips, and Xiang Nuanyang was stunned for a moment, and saw her eyebrows and eyes smiling, and her clear and watery eyes were shining with stars.

I've seen her so many times, and this is the first time I've seen her smile so easily.

He couldn't help muttering in his heart, what kind of message could make her laugh through the screen?

"Boyfriend?" he pretended to ask easily, but his heart felt as if a fine needle had pierced a fine hole, and his heart felt a little empty.

Qi Xiaoran heard his cool voice, raised his head, there was still a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and his cheeks were floating with an unnatural crimson, "No, it's just a friend of mine." ”

"Then it seems that this friend is very important to you. ”

Xiang Nuanyang seemed to intentionally or unintentionally inquire about the identity of the owner who sent the message, and even he couldn't figure out the reason.

"Well, she's one of the few friends I have. Qi Xiaoran gave Chen Fangning a back expression, then directly stuffed the phone into the satchel, looked up and smiled at him, "Actually, this friend of mine, Mr. Xiang, you also know." ”

On the weekend, she thought for a long time, instead of being misunderstood one day because of concealment, it is better to tell her honestly now, at least when Chen Fangning occasionally tosses, she will not panic.

Xiang Nuanyang was puzzled, "I know?"

"Hmm. In fact, the person who just sent me a message was Fang Ning. ”

She paused for half a second, saw a look of hesitation flash in his eyes, and added, "Chen Fangning, your cousin." ”

Xiang Nuanyang's eyes flashed slightly, and the finger on the edge of the teacup buckled a few times, "You know?"

"Fang Ning and I are college alumni, so I've heard something about you before. Qi Xiaoran didn't hide it, and told some of the things.

Xiang Nuanyang raised his eyebrows lightly, remembering the sentence that left a deep impression on him for the first time downstairs in the company before, and he seemed to have some understanding in his heart.

"You said you've seen me wear studs, and you've heard her say it?"

Qi Xiaoran's lips opened slightly, she didn't know whether to nod or shake her head, nodding was lying, shaking her head was also to fulfill the lie she had just told, she seemed to have pushed herself into a dilemma.

"Isn't it?" Xiang Nuanyang looked at her slightly stunned appearance, becoming more and more confused.

"Count...... Isn't it?"

There was some hesitation in her words, and her eyes flickered, deliberately avoiding his gaze.

Coincidentally, at this moment, some fragmentary images suddenly flashed in his mind, but they were fleeting, and the speed of flashing was too fast, and before he could capture it, his mind was already blank.

After dinner, when you come out of the restaurant, a gentle breeze blows, mixed with the coolness of early autumn.

Qi Xiaoran, who was standing outside the door of the restaurant, couldn't help but tremble slightly, hugged herself, and the food box in her hand touched her cold arm, and there was a burst of warmth.

Xiang Nuanyang withdrew the car and drove it in front of her, pressed the window, and saw that she seemed to be trembling in the night, her brows furrowed slightly, "Hurry up and get in the car." ”

Qi Xiaoran took a step forward, there was a puddle of water stains under the stairs, she happened to step on it, and the little white shoes on her feet were stained with a lot of mud, frowning and looking down.

"What's wrong?"

She raised her eyes, "I ......"

Xiang Nuanyang unfastened his seat belt, leaned over, stretched out his long hand, opened the passenger door, noticed that she was staring at the ground, thought she was clean, and said: "Get in the car first, get in the car and then wipe it." ”

"Oh. ”

She pursed the corners of her mouth, sat in with the car door, fastened her seat belt, and looked at Xiang Nuanyang apologetically, "Mr. Xiang, I'm sorry, I ...... your car"

"What did you just do for this?" Xiang Nuanyang was surprised, turned his head to catch a glimpse of her innocent and blank eyes, the corners of his mouth turned upward, and he chuckled, "Qi Xiaoran, what are you asking me to say about you?"

"Could it be that in your eyes, I am a white lotus that does not eat the fireworks of the world?" After chuckling, he turned his head helplessly, only glanced at her, and then looked away, focusing on the surrounding road conditions.

Qi Xiaoran blinked incomprehensibly, her face was dazed and helpless, recalling his laughter just now, the temperature on her face gradually warmed up, she touched it with the back of her hand, and quietly turned her face to the car window.

At the intersection of the traffic light, the car slowly stopped, Xiang Nuanyang propped his left elbow on the side of the car door, his index finger and thumb were open to support his chin, his right hand was holding the steering wheel, and he glanced sideways at the white plastic bag she was still carrying, "Did Fang Ning say how long she wanted to stay with you?"

"Hmm? No. Qi Xiaoran was looking at the countdown of the red light on the sidewalk on the left, and when he heard his question, he reflexively turned his head to look over, and saw him sitting in a relaxed posture, and his heart throbbed.

"Do you need me to tell her about her, so that she doesn't bother you?" the green light turned on, Xiang Nuan Yang withdrew his left hand, sat upright, and stepped on the accelerator.

She eased her mind and shook her head slightly, "Thank you, Mr. Xiang, in fact, with Fang Ning here, I can still be more lively there." ”

She is not a quiet person, and if there can be some laughter at home, it can still make her feel warm.

The black phantom returned to the road, and the car was quiet again, Qi Xiaoran knew that he needed to pay more attention when driving at night, so he didn't open his mouth to interfere with him, his eyes stared at the blue appearance of the equipment in the car, and gradually a trace of sleepiness grew.

When the car stopped at Shuanghuyuan, she couldn't resist the sleepiness and covered her mouth and yawned, noticing that the man next to her was looking at her, and the yawning stopped abruptly halfway, she bowed her head in shame and muttered an apology for her faux pas: "I'm sorry." ”

She covered her mouth and stared like a frightened rabbit, her lips were slightly hooked to Nuanyang, and when she saw her side face with a red face and a low head, a girl in a long skirt suddenly flashed in front of her, and her deep eyes darkened a little, "Qi Xiaoran, have we met before?"
