Xu Zheming can cook, Zhong Ying is not the first time to know.

But for the first time, she knew that he could also make such an ordinary dish appetizing.

Although it was for the reason of celebrating Xu Zheming's birthday, in the end, it was Zhong Ying who ate the most and drank the most.

She could feel Xu Zheming's gaze, as if the scorching sunlight was falling on her body, which was impossible to ignore. But she didn't dare to raise her head, and asked her what she was looking at.

She was afraid that she would get a rogue reply from Xu Zheming - in fact, in the past time, he had shown his scoundrel in front of Zhong Ying countless times.

It wasn't until she finished eating and cleaning up that Zhong Ying remembered her chance encounter with the professor at school.

"Xu Zheming," she decided to ask the teacher, "what did you say to the professors?" ”

Xu Zheming put the bowl with the sauce residue into the sink and said calmly, "Which professor are you asking?" Hearing Zhong Ying's description, he turned his head and said, "I just told him that I had a cold war with my girlfriend recently, so I asked him if he could submit the report a little later." ”

Zhong Ying was not surprised at all, she didn't even have the strength to be angry.

"Xu Zheming, I'm not your girlfriend." She just repeated, at his back as he stood in front of the sink washing dishes. Xu Zheming shook off the water in his hand, stood in front of the table, propped himself on the table, leaned towards her, and said, "Everyone said yes." ”

Zhong Ying turned her face calmly: "It's good that you know it's not." ”

She walked upstairs and left the space on the first floor to him: "I know it's useless to tell you to please leave, so, please take care of yourself." Anyway, this house is what you used to be. ”

Xu Zheming looked at her back, and a feeling of powerlessness rose to the bottom of his heart again. He didn't know what he was going to do to put her mind at ease and talk to him honestly.

Now this Zhong Ying, who avoids him every day, is not the result he wants to see at all.

In the end, he didn't come up with an effective solution, so he could only helplessly watch her escape day by day.

The weather is getting warmer, and it seems that the time is fast approaching early summer again, and the sky seems to be much brighter.

When Zhong Ying walked through the street wearing a white dress and a long beige windbreaker, she never thought that she would see Zhou Yan again.

She was standing in front of a shop window, looking closely at the diamond hairpin inside the window.

Zhong Ying saw her from a distance of a few people, and before she had time to think about anything, she had already raised her head and glanced over here as if she had a sense, and then, with a slight smile, walked over.

"What a coincidence," Zhou Yan said, "I've been here a few times, and I've actually bumped into you again." She glanced at the handful of books in Zhong Ying's hand, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you need my help?" ”

Zhong Ying just looked at her face: "Your surgery ......" Zhou Yan touched her cheek: "The last operation is also done, how does it look now?" ”

"It's no different from ordinary people." Zhong Ying said as she walked forward. Zhou Yan followed her and said, "Only I know, it's different." She touched her cheek and quickly lowered her hand, "Behind this skin that looks the same, there are a lot of things that will never return to the original shape, and when you touch it, you will feel hard lumps." ”

She smiled and said, "Moreover, you can't dive, you can't play roller coasters, you can't do any drastic movements in the future, for fear that if you're not careful, those wounds that seem to heal will rupture again." At that point, I'll be bleeding all over my face. She grimaced and said, "Is it terrible? ”

Zhong Ying just laughed, and Zhou Yan spontaneously and automatically went to pick up the book in her hand: "It's better for me to help you get a little, it looks like you are really a good student, out of school, there are so many books." ”

Zhong Ying sighed: "Talent is not enough, only hard work." ”

"The money given by the Xu family should be enough for you to be at ease for the rest of your life." Zhou Yan said.

Zhong Ying turned her head to look at her, and she smiled: "Me too, I know." Do you know, the Xu family in China and where I live now, one house in one place, and then the money in the account, I have never thought of making so much money in my life. ”

"So, you don't have to work so hard." She concluded.

Zhong Ying shook his head: "I have my own goals that I really want to achieve. ”

"That's good." Zhou Yanyan said admiringly. The two walked side by side through the streets to the house where Zhong Ying lived.

Seeing that small house, Zhou Yan smiled: "The houses in this place are not cheap, and the most important thing is that you can rarely get them." It seems that in order to appease you, the Xu family is also bleeding profusely. ”

She suddenly turned her head and asked Zhong Ying, "What happened to you at the beginning?" ”

Zhong Ying didn't want to answer this question, Zhou Yan asked a question, and she didn't ask again.

Zhong Ying left her to sit down, asked her what she was drinking, and finally brought her coffee. Zhou Yan held the coffee in the palm of her hand, smiled and looked around on the sofa: "Are you interested in meeting Shu Kui?" ”

This was not the first time she had brought up this question, and Zhong Ying was surprised: "Why, you seem to have always wanted me to see Shu Kui?" Zhou Yan lowered her head and didn't speak, and finally smiled: "It's me who is presumptuous, we choose to be different." ”

She put down her coffee and got up to leave. Zhong Ying sent her away and stood at the door, Zhou Yan turned around and said, "Actually, I want you to see Shu Kui because ......"

The voice gradually lowered, Zhong Ying leaned over, and suddenly there was a sharp pain in his neck, and the whole person fell down.

When he woke up, his hands and feet were tied tightly, and his mouth was sealed. The clothes hung above his head, and the soft clothes under him were also piles of clothes, and it was dark.

Zhong Ying thought, was she left in the closet? After thinking about such a question, she began to think about another question, why did Zhou Yan suddenly do it to herself.

The pain before passing out is so clear in memory.

There was a faint sound of talking outside, and the strange feeling of the people in the darkness was infinitely amplified, and Zhong Ying even gradually heard what was being said outside. However, she soon realized that it was not she who could suddenly hear her, but the person who spoke was getting closer.

It's Zhou Yan and Xu Zheming.

The voices of both men were so familiar that she couldn't get them wrong.

She heard Zhou Yan ask, "Why?" Where am I not as good as her? ”

"You and her have nothing to compare to. You are you, she is her. Xu Zheming replied.

Zhou Yan became excited: "Do you dislike my face?" But it's not my fault, it's Xu Lan! It was Xu Lan who turned me into this! ”

Zhong Ying heard a silence, and Zhou Yan's crying voice came: "Xu Zheming, why don't you love me?" I've given so much for you, why don't you love me. ”

Xu Zheming did not answer this question.

"Where's Zhong Ying?" He asked, calmly and indifferently, as if without the slightest emotion.

Zhou Yan just cried.

Zhong Ying wanted to kick the cabinet to remind Xu Zheming that she was here, but the next moment, she heard Zhou Yan's voice in a trance: "Do you want to know where she is?" Kiss me, and I'll tell you. Xu Zheming, didn't you say you loved her? Since you love her, it's okay to pay such a small price for her, right? ”

After a long silence, Zhong Ying suddenly quieted down.

She heard her own heartbeat, which accelerated little by little, and finally became an irrepressible rapid rhythm. Xu Zheming has said that he loves her countless times, but there has never been such a moment, and no such answer tugs at her heartstrings.

Zhou Yan said: "Yes, you said you love her, but you don't love me." At this time, are you willing to touch me who you don't love for the sake of her you love...... Xu Zheming, at that time, if you were willing to protect me, how could I become like this. ”

"It's you who moved your mind that shouldn't have been moved." Xu Zheming suddenly said, his voice seemed to become calmer, "You hurt Xiao Lan." ”

Zhou Yan screamed: "She hurt me!" Look at my face! I'm so badly injured, you still think it's me wrong! Xu Zheming, in your eyes, am I nothing! ”

She seemed to suddenly go crazy, and shouted sharply: "Xu Zheming, don't forget, Zhong Ying is still in my hands." Her voice gradually lowered, but became more resolute: "I have changed my mind, Xu Zheming." ”

"If you want to see Zhong Ying, go to bed with me." She said firmly, "Otherwise, you will never see her again." ”

In the room that Zhong Ying couldn't see, Xu Zheming glanced at Zhou Yan with a cold face. It was the first time he had seen her since he had entered the room.

"You don't have the ability to do that," he said, "hand her over, and I'll spare you once." Otherwise, you will regret it. ”

Zhou Yan looked at him stubbornly, Xu Zheming looked at her, and turned his head impatiently: "Zhou Yan, you will regret it." "For the first time, he called her by name and said something that broke her heart.

He strode forward and approached her, Zhou Yan was shocked that before she could scream, she had already been slapped to the ground.

"Where is she? I asked one last question. Xu Zheming's voice was as beautiful and charming as ever, and it fell on Zhou Yan's ears, but it made her tremble.

The whole person in front of him is too dangerous, he is real, he will do something to her.

Without mercy.

The cold gaze fell on her, like a sharp sword about to pierce her body, and took out the words. Zhou Yan suddenly laughed: "Zhong Ying, does she know this side of you?" ”

stretched out his hand, as if to touch him: "So, cold-blooded, do you dare to let her know?" ”

"Do you dare to tell her that you were on the side when Xu Lan did something to me?"
