23. Clear
Shen Ran's face was almost instantly red!
Her first reaction was that, fortunately, she didn't take out what she was going to say, and then buried her face in Qin Muchuan's arms, unwilling to β‘β‘.
Qin Muchuan pulled her several times before tearing her away, and introduced her in a good mood: "Li Lun, another partner of Chenxing." β
Meow, the confession was also watched by the partner's boss...... Shen Ran's mood is really indescribably subtle, when she just entered the door, the heroic spirit is gone, she feels that her face can be fried eggs, but the other party still recognizes her, and without waiting for Qin Muchuan to say her name, she smiled and said: "Shen Ran, you are Shen Ran, right?" β
Listening to the tone, it seemed that she was still very familiar with her, Shen Ran's mood was more subtle, he bit his lip, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Li, hello." β
Li Lun sat down on the sofa and smiled: "What are you doing so politely, I have been friends with Qin Muchuan for many years, just call me Li Lun." Then he looked at her and added meaningfully, "I've been famous for you for a long time, and now I've finally met the real person." As he spoke, he turned back to tease Qin Muchuan, "No wonder you didn't let me come to you, well, I shouldn't have bothered anything, right?" β
The latter sentence was said to Shen Ran.
Shen Ran's face turned even redder, but he forced himself to calm down and said, "No." β
Qin Muchuan glanced at him, and his tone was very light: "You should go and rest." β
Li Lun laughed and complained to Shen Ran: "Look, what I can't see the most is that he looks dead, and he has to be righteous and strict when he drives people out, so just say that I disturb you?" Patting his ass, he stood up, "Okay, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know how to look at eyes, let's go, don't be a light bulb here." β
Qin Muchuan waved his hand, but it was Shen Ran, who got up and sent him to the door.
Li Lun was very polite to her, and winked at her before leaving: "His person, sullen, his heart is bubbling with beauty, and his face is still expressionless, you ignore him." β
Is this aware of the unpleasantness between him and her, and is he pointing her instructed?
Shen Ran thanked: "Well, I know, thank you." Walk slowly, I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow. β
He laughed: "Of course, I definitely want to eat my brother and sister's meal." β
With a wave of his hand, he left rather dashingly.
Shen Ran turned around, Qin Muchuan was still sipping tea there, with a faint expression on his face.
She didn't know what to do for a while, her confession was interrupted, and it seemed embarrassing to continue, so she leaned on the table and stood aside playing with her fingers.
Qin Muchuan glanced at her and reminded her: "What you want to say, have you finished it?" β
The tone is so cold.
Shen Ran's heart was congested, and he let out an "oh".
Qin Muchuan put down the teacup and stood up: "Okay, I know, you can go." β
Shen Ran: ......
This was a bit far from what she imagined, and she raised her head in surprise: "What...... What do you mean? β
Qin Muchuan took a breath and said with some patience: "It means, Shen Ran, I won't stalk you, let alone have a personal vendetta because of this communiquΓ©, so you don't need to run to appease me." β
He thought she said that just to "appease"? Hell, what kind of anti-heavenly understanding is this? Does anyone who wants to appease someone go out of their way to say "I love you"?
Shen Ran laughed angrily: "Do you think I said that to appease you?" β
Qin Muchuan looked at her with an expression of "otherwise": "If I understand correctly, then before they appear, you want to dissociate yourself from me, right?" Why? Isn't it because he's back, and then you know he's getting a divorce? β
When he said this, the logic was quite strong, if it weren't for Shen Ran being the party, she would almost believe it.
It's really a day dog!
To be honest, she really didn't expect Zou Bo and Yao Lan at the time, when she heard someone say that she was a three, the first thing she thought of was only Qin Muchuan, and it was just Qin Muchuan.
Who knows where Zou Bo jumped out of?!
She looked at Qin Muchuan, who was very calm, and it seemed that she was also planning to make it clear to her.
Peaceful.
Some doubted her previous guesses, maybe Qin Muchuan didn't care about her as much as she thought? Shen Ran forced himself to calm down, rubbed his face, and then said: "Okay, Qin Muchuan, whether you believe it or not, I have to say that the reason why I wanted to make it clear to you at that time is because I have never been sure what you think of me, I believe that you are not a villain enough to want to take revenge on me, but I am not arrogant enough to think that you will still have old feelings for me after so many years." Sometimes, I feel like I'm just an inflatable doll you pick up, and I don't want to be your inflatable doll at all. β
"And what do you want to be?"
"A person, a person who has made mistakes, but still wants to love you."
"So, you love me?"
"Yes, I love you!" She should be very simple, and the words that she had hesitated to think about repeatedly were not too difficult to say.
Moreover, this sentence is also owed to him.
owed for many years.
When she said it, she felt relaxed, but she also felt a little embarrassed, because Qin Muchuan's reaction was still very calm, and he stood there with his eyes half-down, not much surprised, although, there was no obvious disgust.
She smiled wryly and said, "I know that even if I say it at this time, you may not believe it." After all, I have a bad criminal record, don't I? Walking over, she picked up her bag on the couch and prepared to leave.
Qin Muchuan leaned over and grabbed her hand and brought her up in front of him: "You also know that you have a bad criminal record...... Then Shen Ran, sue me, for so many years, you haven't found a boyfriend, who is it? β
"Who do you think it's because of?" Shen Ran's eyes were red, she had already said it so clearly, did he still refuse to believe it? "Qin Muchuan, you just don't like me anymore, then don't humiliate me!"
Qin Muchuan was unmoved, and still asked: "That's because of me, right?" β
His stubborn pursuit of answers made Shen Ran embarrassed, and he struggled under him: "Yes, because of you!" Because I have always regretted that I missed you, it seems that everyone I meet is worse than you, I thought I would die alone, I thought this was the price I paid for rejecting you back then, so when I met you again, I almost shamelessly threw myself at your side, saying this, Qin Muchuan, don't you understand?! β
If he doesn't understand, then she feels that she has nothing more to say.
Fortunately, Qin Muchuan replied this time: "Understood." β
He said, tucking her chin.
Shen Ran saw that his eyes were full of smiles, and the corners of his mouth couldn't hide it, he leaned over, pressed against her face, rubbed the corners of her mouth and whispered: "Shen Ran, I have been waiting for your words for many years." β
He took her cheek, kissed her lips, and sealed all the words she had to say in this kiss.
In fact, there is a sentence he didn't say, as long as she is willing to explain, no matter what the reason is, even if it lies to him, he is willing to believe it.
During the day, he deliberately said that, originally just to provoke her, but unexpectedly, he really forced out her psychological words.
And these words made him particularly surprised.
This time, Qin Muchuan's kiss was very delicate, lingering and gentle, completely different from the rudeness and eagerness of the previous lust. The tip of his tongue also has a faint fragrance of tea, accompanied by affectionate styles, which is intoxicating.
Shen Ran was kissed in a daze, and it took a long time to react and push him away: "Qin Muchuan, you deliberately provoked me, right?" β
He laughed, "Hmm. β
There is no disguise at all.
Shen Ran wasn't angry, she just pouted and complained helplessly: "Why do you have to ask so clearly?" β
Is she embarrassed?
Qin Muchuan said: "I just don't want to express my feelings again. β
His tone was light, but Shen Ran felt very ashamed, so he took the initiative to mention it again: "At that time, I was about to graduate, my father was not in good health, and I was the only daughter in the family, so I was bound to not stay there, and although I knew that I liked you, I was not optimistic about our prospects, so I felt that the long pain was better than the short pain, so I simply broke up." β
She is a coward, and in that relationship, she chose to give up without even trying hard, and every time she talked about it, she was very shameless.
In fact, it is not a manifestation of not loving enough.
Qin Muchuan was silent for a while and said, "It's okay, I know." β
He did already know, and more importantly, he knew what he wanted right now.
No matter how much reluctance there is, it will pass, and it was already clear when he decided to approach her again, he would no longer care about her former determination and abandonment, love more and love less is not the main thing, the important thing is that after so many years, she is still his.
The next day, as the host, Shen Ran naturally wanted to invite Li Lun to dinner.
Because he and Qin Muchuan had a party in the evening, they set the time at noon, considering that they might also have the habit of taking a lunch break, she was very considerate and booked a Chinese restaurant not too far from Chenxing.
When Shen Ran called to discuss these with Qin Muchuan, Li Lun happened to be in his office, and when he answered the phone, his tone was no different from usual, even if he didn't say much, but the warmth and gentleness that couldn't help but reveal from the corners of his eyebrows and eyes still revealed the fact that he was in a good mood.
Li Lun said sourly: "So you chose this place, in fact, because she is here, right?" β
Qin Muchuan was serious and asked rhetorically: "Do you think I will joke with such a big investment?" β
said it as if it was really just a coincidence, Li Lun didn't believe it, and when he was eating, he desperately exposed his old bottom: "How sullen is he?" Only one thing can be seen: there is a text jiΓ n bag in his computer, signed as 'Chenxing', which is very serious, very businesslike, and very sunny and snowy, right? The content I sue sΓΉ you, it's unsightly! Patting the table and encouraging Shen Ran, "You have to go back and see it, it's very exciting, you must remember to watch it!" β
He said repeatedly, Shen Ran was really interested, returned to the apartment at night, Qin Muchuan went to take a bath, Shen Ran saw the computer he put on the table, remembered what Li Lun said during the day, and asked him through the door: "Can I use your computer?" β
The sound of water in the bathroom was quiet, and after a while, I heard him say "oh" and say, "You can use it." β
