After Chen Cheng said hello, he didn't leave directly, but sat down next to Xia Qixi and babbled a lot of innocuous words.
Since the things of the past have become a thing of the past, it is not the ruthlessness of the years, which can only show that it has no meaning of existence at all. As for now, there is no need to mention that your life is not cared about by others, and other people's lives may not be true even if you see them with your own eyes.
Xia Qixi couldn't arouse the slightest interest in Chen Cheng's words, but he still had to hinder the old friendship between classmates and his face, and it was really uncomfortable to pretend to listen carefully. In the eyes of other students, Chen Cheng is undoubtedly a successful one. Nowadays, people are accustomed to only focusing on the result and not caring about the process, so he has become the object of worship. The crowd was surrounded by left and right, and I don't know how many women secretly felt sad in their hearts, such a good man did not fall on his head. And men's hearts may not be easy, and it is a proud thing to be the object of being the object of attention by beautiful women.
Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and men are afraid of entering the wrong industry. This is all the previous statement, I'm afraid it will have to be changed now. It's not just women who are afraid of marrying the wrong man, but more men are also worried about not being able to get a good woman. Like Chen Cheng, a person with a good family background and status has taken many detours.
Dare to ask, there are thousands of roads in this world, and which one is absolutely smooth. In order to achieve today's status, Chen Cheng sacrificed and paid how much, he could only find a place where there was no one, break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
Xia Qixi has been strange to these people for too long, and he is naturally excluded from the object of attention. But Chen Cheng is definitely one of the focuses of attention tonight. It was precisely because of his overly high-profile relationship that someone saw him and Xia Qixi outside the crowd, and came over and quipped: "Why should I get married and still have an unforgettable old love for her!" ”
Chen Cheng smiled very embarrassed, and told the visitor not to talk nonsense. This person was seen at Chen Cheng's wedding on Xia Qixi, and he also sat in the position of his classmates, looking at his face and unable to remember his name.
He spoke louder, and with the words unforgettable old love, he was simply used to stir up the topic on the occasion of the old classmate reunion, and a few people immediately came over. So, Xia Qixi and Chen Chengcheng became the center of their topic, they both drank a little wine, and they relied on the relationship between old classmates, and their words gradually lost their proportion, although it was a joke, some of them were too much. The people who attended the party today, even if they didn't go to the wedding, knew that Chen Cheng had just gotten married, but it didn't make sense to talk about it.
No man is not careful, Chen Cheng's current identity and status, even if there is a wife at home, there is no problem with a golden house outside. continues to turn out all the things in high school meticulously, and promotes the old things of adulthood in a staggered manner.
The expression on Xia Qixi's face became more and more unsightly, and just when she couldn't bear it anymore, Gao Xin came over and wanted to relieve her: "Don't joke casually, Chen Cheng is also a person in his wife's room now, and he is saying that Xia Qixi also has a boyfriend now, you guys are too much of a joke." ”
Gao Xin was kind-hearted, but one person suddenly realized and said loudly: "Oh, I remember, the one who was with you at Chen Cheng's wedding was your boyfriend, and I think it was Chen Ziyu, a famous young talent in the business world, didn't he come with you today?" ”
As soon as he said this, everyone sighed.
Sure enough, he is a person who is not looked at as much as air during his entire student life, but now he is the best among them. The three words Chen Ziyu were spread through the crowd at lightning speed, including his net worth and everything else related to money.
The person who had been in the corner all this time turned into a man, attracting everyone's attention. Set almost, dedication to courtesy. Xia Qixi knew very well in her heart that all of this was not because of her, it was all for Chen Ziyu.
It's boring to sit down again, and Xia Qixi excused himself to go to the bathroom and got out of everyone's sight. Just a few steps out of the door, Gao Xin caught up from behind.
"I'm sorry to let you come to the party, I didn't expect it to be like this."
"It's not your fault, there's no need to apologize, it's just that I'm still not used to dealing with such a scene as before, so I might have to leave first."
Gao Xin has always insisted on sending Xia Qixi to the door, and she is embarrassed to refuse repeatedly. When he was about to reach the door, he whispered: "If the words just now are heard by the person in Chen Cheng's family, I can't say what it will be." ”
He obviously had something to say, but Xia Qixi was too lazy to ask. Other people's lives, she did not dare to be interested. And even if you know, what can you do, it's all your own path, and no one can help.
Seeing that Xia Qixi didn't want to listen to it, Gao Xin also stopped and didn't continue.
Chen Ziyu had been sitting in the car, his eyes waiting for the position at the door, and it didn't take long for Xia Qixi and Gao Xin to come out one after the other. I quickly opened the car door and greeted him.
"Is it over?" Chen Ziyu said as he took off his coat and put it on Xia Qixi: "It's windy, be careful not to catch a cold." ”
"Well, let's go back." Xia Qixi took advantage of the situation to grab Chen Ziyu's arm and turned his head to look at Zhang Xin: "Thank you for inviting me to the party, I hope you have a good time." ”
As soon as Chen Cheng walked out of the door of the private room, he saw Xia Qixi and Gao Xin walking towards the door together, and he followed behind. Before I got to the door, I saw three people standing outside the door saying goodbye, stood thoughtfully for a while, and then turned around and walked back.
On the way home, Xia Qixi kept looking out the window and didn't speak. There is sadness hidden between the eyebrows. The last thing Chen Ziyu wants to see is the way she is now, hiding everything in her heart, which is unsettling.
"What happened at the party, why aren't you happy?" Chen Ziyu slowed down the car, held the steering wheel with one hand, and held Xia Qixi's hand in it with the other hand he freed.
"I don't think I'll be attending a class reunion anymore." Xia Qixi turned his head, his voice muffled.
"Tell me, why aren't you participating?"
Xia Qixi repeated what happened at the party to Chen Ziyu word for word, and finally sighed helplessly. Chen Ziyu listened quietly and did not make any comments, if he didn't guess wrong, this storm that would not be over is not over, and Gaoxin will definitely not organize this party for no reason and then specially invite Xia Qixi to participate.
"By the way, my mom just called and asked when we were going home, she prepared a lot of things you like to eat, and I told her that we would go back the next day of the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Nodding silently, his gaze passed through the night, staying out of sight.
Chen Ziyu regretted it a little, he knew that the sequelae were so serious, he shouldn't have let Xia Qixi go to any class reunion, and he was now alone in the empty room. After returning home, Xia Qixi locked herself in the study, and she didn't come out after the time to go to bed, Chen Ziyu knocked on the door, and only got a sentence to let him sleep alone.
When he went out, he was fine, but after he came home, he changed, he was worried that he couldn't worry, where could he sleep. Since the soft one can't be used, then the hard one can only come, which is better than letting her lock herself in the study all night.
"Baby, don't make a fuss, come out, you know I can't sleep alone." Chen Ziyu's ears were pressed against the door, listening carefully to the movement inside.
……
"Xia Qixi, if you don't come out, you're going to slam the door."
The fist slammed down on the door, and the people inside finally reacted.
"I'm not done yet, you just go to sleep alone, don't make trouble."
Not done? What the hell is she doing behind her back, Chen Ziyu was pacing back and forth at the door of the study, and suddenly had an idea.
Chen Ziyu held the spare key and unlocked the door. Xia Qixi was startled, the brush in his hand fell on the table, and the paint splashed everywhere. She actually ignored that the person who was locked out of the door by him was Chen Ziyu, and he always had many ways to open the door. Opening the door with a spare key is already the most tactful, and it may really smash the door open.
