[He has become abnormal]
More than a month later.
When it was time to get off work, the colleagues in the company left in twos and threes, only Qian Yu sat alone on the sofa in the lounge area of the hall, with a magazine in his hand, looking out of the glass door blankly but expectantly.
Xia Qianyao's voice suddenly came from his ears, "Don't wait, he definitely won't be able to come." β
Qian Yu hurriedly retracted his gaze and pretended to be calm: "Wait, wait, I don't know what you're talking about." β
Xia Qianyao snorted, sat down beside her, leaned back on the back of the sofa, put one hand on his knee and tapped unhurriedly, and said: "The magazines in your hand are reversed, so absent-minded, and said that you are not waiting for Tong Lang, what's the matter, I haven't seen him pick you up for a few days, are you going to break up?" β
In the end, his tone couldn't help but carry a bit of anticipation and joy.
Qian Yu immediately retorted, "No! YouβCan you break my relationship with him every time! We're fine, he's just on a business trip, he said he'll be back today, maybe it's a traffic jam on the road, so he's late......"
Xia Qianyao looked at her leisurely, "Oh? Is it? Traffic? β
Qian Yu was stunned by his casual eyes, "Yes, yes, it must be a traffic jam......"
Xia Qianyao originally wanted to take advantage of the fire and say a few more bad words about Tong Lang, but seeing Qian Yu's uneasy appearance, he couldn't bear it, and finally he could only sigh helplessly and glared at her, "Then you just wait slowly." β
With that, he got up and left.
So Qian Yu was the only one left in the rest area.
Her heart was empty, seeing that time passed minute by minute, and Tong Lang had no sign of appearing, even if Qian Yu believed him again, she couldn't help but start worrying in her heart.
Did something happen to him on the way? Or can't you come to yourself for overtime? But why didn't there even be a text call? He won't answer when he calls? Qian Yu didn't even know where Tong Lang was now, let alone how to find him.
So the more she thought about it, the worse it became, and she couldn't help but wonder if Tong Lang would empathize and say goodbye.
In fact, she is not completely unsubstantiated to have this idea.
Tong Lang's eccentric attitude towards her started almost half a month ago.
Qian Yu himself is a rough person and doesn't care very much about the details, but the two of them went to the movie that weekend, and when they saw the emotional parts of the film, Qian Yu was moved in his heart, and couldn't help but lean on Tong Lang's shoulder next to him and hold his arm. She hadn't done this before, but somehow, as soon as her body touched Tong Lang that night, he reacted very much and pushed her away, and regardless of the quiet atmosphere of the movie theater, he yelled, "Don't touch me!" β
Not only Qian Yu, but the surrounding audience was taken aback by Tong Lang's roar, and many people looked back at them.
Qian Yu was stunned, looking at Tong Lang in a daze and unable to move, in the dim theater, Tong Lang seemed to be panting violently, he covered one cheek with his hand, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry...... I...... I'm a little uncomfortable, go out for a bit. β
Then he fled and left the theater.
After Tong Lang left, the kind audience next to him also asked Qian Yu if it mattered, Qian Yu shook his head, barely calming down, but he couldn't watch what was going on the big screen anymore.
She kept sitting in her position and recalling, what did she do wrong just now, which would make Tong Lang so disgusted?
But I couldn't figure it out.
Qian Yu sat stupidly until the end of the movie, and Tong Lang never came back. She walked out of the theater alone, looked up, and found Tong Lang standing in the corridor looking at her apologetically.
Qian Yu opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, but Tong Lang rushed over and hugged her first, "I'm sorry, I just ...... I have an upset stomach, and I don't want to make a fool of myself in front of you, so I'm a little out of shape. Sorry for the pain that just hurt you? β
He looked down to check Qian Yu's arm, his nervous and concerned expression didn't seem to be pretending, Qian Yu held back the sourness in his eyes, and finally shook his head and hugged his waist, "It's okay, you're so stupid, just say it if your stomach is uncomfortable, I don't care if it's ugly." β
She felt Tong Lang's body stiffen, but she still responded, "Okay, I'll pay attention to it in the future." β
This matter was resolved peacefully, but since then, Qian Yu couldn't help but start observing Tong Lang. Or rather, she had to observe Tong Lang, because he seemed to be avoiding himself more and more.
When I go shopping, I only hold hands for a while and have to shake them off, and I keep a little distance from her when I watch TV series at home, and when I kiss her, I just touch it, and Qian Yu has to wonder if she has poison on her mouth.
But except for the physical touch, Tong Lang was very normal in other aspects, so this made Qian Yu very distressed. She quietly asked her colleagues and girlfriends, but she couldn't get a reasonable answer.
Qian Yu could only secretly suppress these uneasiness, and prayed in his heart that maybe Tong Lang would slowly return to normal.
However, bad things always seem to follow, just a few days ago, on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qian Yu's parents wanted to invite Tong Lang and his parents to have a meal at home, after all, the children of the two families are now in love, and it is always good for the two families to be familiar with each other.
Qian Yu went to ask Tong Lang, originally worried that his parents might not be available, but he said with a strange expression: "Our family is only the Mid-Autumn Festival...... And, I'm sorry, I'm going on a business trip for the past two days, and I really can't push off the company's affairs, so I can't accompany you for the holidays. β
There is something in the company, this Qian Yu is acceptable, but it is not the Mid-Autumn Festival...... Qian Yu asked him incomprehensibly, "Why?" Is it because you've been abroad all the time, so you don't have this habit? β
Tong Lang shook his head with a deep face, "No, we just don't like things related to the moon. β
This...... What a strange answer! But Qian Yu quickly remembered that Tong Lang seemed to really dislike the moon. At night, he accompanied himself home, if it was a good moonlit night, Qian Yu walked happily in the moonlight, but Tong Lang had to hide in the shade of a tree. Also, these days the supermarket mooncakes are being promoted, and there are many salesmen who recommend tasting to sell to customers, but Tong Lang is not interested at all.
She doesn't understand, but everyone has different preferences, and she can understand it. So she nodded, "That'...... Okay, then when you come back from a business trip, you can eat with my family again, okay? β
"Of course." Tong Lang smiled and touched her face, but there was always a trace of melancholy and forbearance in his expression.
Qian Yu sent Tong Lang away with doubts and growing uneasiness. When he left, he really didn't even come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qian Yu and his family got together to eat and admire the moon, Tong Lang was not around, Qian Yu was bored and leaned against the window, looking at the bright and full moon in the sky, I don't understand such a beautiful moon, why don't Tong Lang and his family like it?
Mother Qian couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she saw her daughter's trance, put down her chopsticks and said: "This Tong Lang is really a bit unusual, just don't want to come to see us, just make up that kind of excuse to deceive the child?" β
Dad Qian hurriedly persuaded: "The young man starts his own business, maybe he really goes on a business trip, don't think about it." β
Qian's mother sighed, "I don't want to think about it either, but who makes her daughter unhappy." I bought so many mooncakes and wanted to give them to that kid, but they didn't want them at all. You say, did their family not take a fancy to our daughter, so they deliberately made excuses to shirk it? β
Father Qian was also a little hesitant, after all, the conditions of the Tong family were indeed good, and there were many of them. He glanced at his daughter, who was leaning against the window in a daze, and finally said, "Forget it, let's take a look." But if they really don't look down on our family, I won't let my daughter continue to be wronged, and it's better to break it off earlier. β
Qian Yu kept leaning against the window and didn't make a sound, but in fact, she heard all the words of her parents. She knows that since the beginning of this relationship, she has been suffering from gains and losses, and she has advised herself not to think too much about it, but Tong Lang's recent appearance has become more and more strange, and she really doesn't know what the problem is.
Just wait for Tong Lang to come back this time, and she will ask directly.
Qian Yu, who had made up her mind, continued to wait, but seeing that several days had passed since the Mid-Autumn Festival, Tong Lang's return date was postponed again and again.
And every time he wants to postpone the date of returning to China, he just sends a message to Qian Yu, and it is a few days late to say very briefly, and then there is no news. Qian Yu asked him what he was busy with, but he didn't answer, if it weren't for his assistant Shani who would call her and tell her that Tong Lang was busy, Qian Yu would have suspected that something had happened to him.
Qian Yu became more and more uneasy, she even wondered if Tong Lang was planning to use the reason of business trip to break up, until today, he called her personally for the first time in many days, and said in a tired voice: "I'll pick you up for dinner at night." β
Qian Yu asked distressedly, "Are you very tired?" Leave me alone, you go home and have a good rest. β
Tong Lang said: "No, I want to see you, I miss you very much." You wait for me at the company in the evening. β
Qian Yu only had time to say "yes", and the other party hung up the phone. She thought, maybe he was really busy running a company, and all his messy speculations since this time might be superfluous.
But now, she has been sitting in the company hall for more than half an hour, but Tong Lang still hasn't appeared.
Just when his stomach was empty and screaming, Qian Yu suddenly smelled a smell of grilled chicken wings.
A lunch box was handed to her.
Qian Yu looked up at the hand holding the lunch box and said in surprise, "Xia Qianyao? You...... Isn't it gone? β
Xia Qianyao coughed lightly, stuffed the hot lunch box into her hand, and said, "After eating nearby, I came back from a walk and found that you, a stupid woman, were still waiting, afraid that you would starve to death, so I gave you a little food." β
Qian Yu lowered her head, opened the lunch box and looked at it, the rich food inside made her swallow her saliva. She looked out the door again, but she still didn't see Tong Lang's car, maybe he really couldn't come, right? So she nodded, "Thank you." How much? I'll give you the money. β
Xia Qianyao waved his hand, and was about to say no more, when the glass door of the hall was suddenly pushed open.
There was a crisp sound of high heels walking across the floor.
Qian Yu and Xia Qianyao turned their heads at the same time, and saw a slender beauty in a suit and skirt standing in the hall, nodding slightly to Qian Yu, "Miss Qian, Mr. Tong is a little uncomfortable now, and he can't pick you up in person." He asked me to pick you up and take you to his house. β
Qian Yu was stunned, her expression suddenly became relaxed, she stuffed the lunch box back into Xia Qianyao's hand, and ran towards Shani quickly, "Okay...... Good! Xia Qianyao, then I'm leaving, thank you for the lunch, goodbye! β
"......" Xia Qianyao sighed, "Slow down!" Run so fast and be careful to fall! β
Qian Yu couldn't hear it at all, and had already rushed out happily like a little rabbit.
Shani politely opened the car door for her and invited Qian Yu to get into the car, who asked nervously, "Is there anything wrong with Tong Lang?" Where is he uncomfortable? Why not go to the hospital? β
Shani looked indifferent, and while driving, she said, "It's just a little uncomfortable, and I don't need to go to the hospital." Thinking that the reason why Tong Lang was uncomfortable was because he was about to come to see Qian Yu before his body fully recovered, Shani couldn't help but be very unhappy in her heart, so the tone of her voice was naturally not very good, "Miss Qian may give Mr. Tong more time and space, after all, he is not your alone, he still has a whole family...... A whole company to manage. β
After finishing speaking, Qian Yu beside him did not respond for a long time.
Shani's heart jumped, and she suddenly realized that she had gone too far, and hurriedly looked at her, "I'm sorry, maybe my words are not very polite, please don't-"
"Shanny." Qian Yu interrupted her, staring straight at her with his eyes, as if he had seen something crucial, "Your eyes are dark purple, so are the silver hair in your ears dyed?" β
Shanny shook her head, "No, it's natural. Why did Miss Qian ask that? β
ββ¦β¦ It's nothing, I'mβI'll ask casually. Qian Yu said this, turning his head to look out the window, his face was calm, but his heart was turbulent.
Because she suddenly remembered that the werewolf who injured her in the bamboo forest before had the same silver hair and purple eyes as Shani!
