19.chapter 19
Xu Xia went straight home after work, her friend Zhu Zhu moved in with her, and the girl who shared the house with Xu Xia before was getting married and moved away.
Zhu Zhu is a well-behaved girl, medium height, sunny smile, a pair of small round-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose, looking cute, and Xu Xia have known each other since she was seven years old, and have been friends until now.
The little girl roughly tidied up the room, sweated profusely, and went to the grilled fish stall near downstairs to eat, and ordered two fresh pepper grilled crucian carp, which was delicious and cheap. Xu Xia talked about the experience of being in C City in the past two months, being deceived, robbed and unexpectedly good luck entering ECCOM, etc., Zhu Zhu listened to it, held her hand and said: "Xiao Xia, we will take care of it in C City in the future, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." ”
Xu Xia smiled and said "um": "You are not in a hurry to find a job, take your time and pick a good one, you can rest assured, with my sip of water to drink, I will definitely not be thirsty for you!" "Seeing my old girlfriend and listening to the local sound, the beauty in my heart!
The two girls were talking happily when Xu Xia's mobile phone rang. As soon as Xu Xia looked at the caller ID, she became nervous, Zhu Zhu was a smart and careful girl: "It's the one you said...... Is Mr. Shen, who is very elegant and gentlemanly? ”
Xu Xia nodded, and Zhu Zhu hurriedly gestured for her to answer. Because of the incident of Ninggang Coffee last time, she secretly wiped her tears, and she was more sure of her intentions, and she wanted to see Shen Yu and was afraid to see it.
"Hey, Shen Yu."
The man's voice was calm and calm.
"Are you at home?"
“…… At. ”
"I'm downstairs from your house, if you have time to go with me at night to see the night view, I found a good place."
Xu Xia was caught off guard, "I'm not at home, I'm in ...... Dinner with friends downstairs next to the place. ”
Said yes, and then quickly hung up the phone. Zhu Zhu apologized: "Such a good opportunity to be alone made me ......"
Xu Xia comforted her and said that she was fine, but when she saw Zhu Zhu sitting opposite, she suddenly looked behind her and was stunned. Xu Xia looked back and stammered-
On the chaotic and narrow old street, a white Mercedes-Benz stopped, and a man with light khaki trousers and a silver-gray shirt came out, he glanced at Xu Xia and walked towards Xu Xia with a smile in the pedestrians stopping to watch, like a warm wind blowing, dispelling the messy smell of the old street.
"You...... How did you know I was here? Xu Xia was extremely surprised. She obviously didn't tell him where she was, there were several small roads and alleys in the area.
Shen Yu smiled. "It feels like you're supposed to be on this road, so I'm going this way."
Zhu Zhu smiled and hurriedly let her go, and she packed the grilled fish back to eat. Xu Xia apologized, but Zhu Zhu was so happy that he pushed her to Shen Yu's side.
Shen Yu opened the car door for Xu Xia and asked her to go up first before she got into the car.
The white Mercedes slid across the street where the wires were pulled in the half-light and half-darkness, and in the shadow of the small banyan tree on the side of the road, a black car was hidden. A passer-by, sharp-eyed person spotted the winged B-shaped logo and secretly marveled at the fact that there was a multi-million dollar car parked next to the dirty garbage can.
Leng Yusen watched Shen Yu and Xu Xia pass in front of him. Fingertips pinched the steering wheel for a long time, Xu Xia's smile was so happy and sweet, she had never smiled at him like this. She likes Shen Yu so much, and hates herself so much?
Leng Yusen exhaled heavily, I don't know if the high fever has not subsided or the car is too stuffy, and his head hurts.
At the beginning of the lanterns, the neon colors on both sides of the Yangtze River are scattered, the riverside of Beibin Road, the silver waves of the vast river are rippling, several passenger boats are docked on the bank, and the fishing fire is extremely quiet.
Xu Xia was blowing the evening breeze, and four words came to mind - "the sea of stars".
"The sea of stars, that's what I said." Shen Yu said suddenly.
Xu Xia was a little surprised, he actually said what he thought.
There is a "convex" fence, surrounded by a few red and white daffodils, just enough to accommodate two people.
On the bridge across the river, the subway sped by like a silver-white ribbon of light, and then their eyes met without warning. Xu Xia's face suddenly heated, and he quickly looked away.
Shen Yu smiled. "We're quite accommodating."
"yes, maybe I'm more popular." Xu Xia couldn't find words for a while, remembered the content of the chat in Ninggang last time, and asked him, "After that day, have you talked to Sister Ethel?" ”
Shen Yu was silent and said, "Ethel is leaving tomorrow, going to the far north and getting married. ”
Xu Xia choked on saliva when she opened her mouth, coughing non-stop, Shen Yu handed her a handkerchief, and after a long time, she had time to ask: "Sister Ethel, does she have a boyfriend?" ”
"She didn't sue me. Besides, getting married and falling in love are not the same thing for people in our circle. ”
Shen Yu's complexion was still faint, but Xu Xia saw a deep sadness from that indifference.
"You've only seen one side of Tranquility, and you may not know it. She seems to be elegant and gentle, but her personality is more decisive than that of men, no matter whether she hurts or loves, she never hesitates or regrets. "She rejected me last time, and she won't nod her head for the rest of her life."
At this time, a night moth stopped on Shen Yu's shoulder, fluttering its wings gently, adding a calm beauty to the tall and straight man. Xu Xia has never seen such a calm man, so calm that she can forget the anxiety of life and stop to look at the scenery around her, but now, this "calmness" makes her extremely distressed. At this moment, Xu Xia really hoped that Ethel would appear immediately and be with Shen Yu.
Shen Yu told her about Ethel.
"When I was seven years old, my father died because of me, the whole family fell into chaos, and my mother remarried.
"So, Ethel for me is all the good and hope I had throughout my childhood and teenage years."
Xu Xia felt that he was a little powerless, she was not his person, she could immediately make him smile sincerely, instead of living indifferently like this.
"Silly girl, what are you crying about?"
Xu Xia's broken eyes looked at him, and Shen Yu knew that he had accidentally said too much.
Shen Yu gently wiped away her tears for her, regretting that she didn't keep her mouth shut. In the face of a girl, he always accidentally confides in his thoughts. He hadn't been in such a mood for more than twenty years, not even in the face of Ethel.
"Ethel said that I like you very much, let me tell you that if you go to the north in the future, you must look for her. I've never seen Ethel so attached to that one-sided person. ”
Xu Xia shook his hand to wipe his tears. "Shen Yu, you will definitely be happy, believe me!"
She had already made a secret decision in her heart.
Shen Yu was stunned to hold his slender ten fingers, and then smiled faintly bitterly.
The night breeze was slightly cool, and Shen Yu took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders. Shen Yu is one meter eight tall, his arms are long, and the slender Xu Xia seems to be holding lightly in the crook of his arm, she just raised her head, and her eyes like autumn water just looked into Shen Yu's distracted eyes.
Across the road.
Leng Yusen looked at the two people who were looking at each other intimately through the front glass of the car, and his nails were tightly pinched in his palms until a deep blood mark appeared.
Since she likes Shen Yu so much and hates herself so much, why did she say that she was her boyfriend that morning, and deliberately made him think wrong. Give him illusions, and ruthlessly shattered. Or, as she said: he was the boss, so he had to be perfunctory, and then took advantage of it to show off to others?
Leng Yusen closed his eyes deeply, and when he opened them again, he was as calm as a waveless ice surface.
Call it a day.
All the things about this woman, so far, he won't waste any more time doing these inexplicable things! I don't know this woman anymore.
Xu Xia pulled away his coat, and when he turned around, he saw a black Bentley driving extremely fast, speeding past him.
