36.Chapter 36
He Yalan said: "For the sake of just a Xia Ran, you gave up your career that you have worked hard for so many years, are you sick?" ”
If there is a gap in your heart, no matter how well you disguise it at ordinary times, at a critical moment, a blurt out, there is always a place between the lines that can make you exposed.
In just one sentence, she was unconsciously arrogant, and when the words fell, He Yalan herself was a little stunned - she was so disdainful of Xia Ran?
Lin Han, who was directly opposite, was already staring intently, and the face that was still smiling just now turned over.
People who are a little familiar with Lin Han know that there will always be a thorn in his heart that can't be softened, at first no one was allowed to mention it, but now no one is allowed to touch it, and as soon as you touch it, he will immediately be nervous.
He Yalan knew that she had offended him just now, and regretted it a little: "No, haha, I mean-"
Lin Haha looked at her coldly and said, "Yalan, you can say anything to me, don't say anything." ”
The first second was still beautiful and the wind was beautiful, but this second was a rejection, He Yalan frowned: "Lin Haha, I don't have any prejudice against Ranran, I said that these are all for your good." ”
Lin Han said, "Thank you. ”
......He Yalan: "You have worked so hard to get into SpaceN, I don't want to see your years of hard work go to waste." ”
Lin Han said, "Thank you. ”
"......" He Yalan sighed: "Haha, can you say something else?" ”
Xia Ran grabbed the plate and sandwiched the cake on the side, picking all the ones that were beautiful and creamy, and her sweet habits had not changed for decades.
With a slight movement of his hand, the shawl slid to his arm, revealing his shoulders as white as the tip of a snow-capped mountain, and he knew how soft and smooth the touch was.
Her face was calm and light, and when someone came to talk to her, she smiled and responded carefully...... She didn't know what was going on a few meters away, and Lin Han didn't want her to know.
Lin Han just looked at her quietly for a while, his eyes were soft and doting, but when he looked at He Yalan again, it was as cold as winter.
Lin Han finally said, "Yalan, you have crossed the line. ”
For the sake of his friend's face for so many years, he was merciful, in other words, to put it mildly, he asked her not to meddle in her affairs.
He Yalan was disheartened and smiled bitterly: "Forget it." ”
Forget it, since the first day I knew him, He Yalan has been comforting herself all the time, forget it.
Lin Han treats her as nothing, forget it; Lin Han rejected her for thousands of miles, forget it; Leaving behind the privileged life in the country and insisting on following him to a foreign land, forget it; Seeing each other in a foreign country, he couldn't even remember her name, forget it.
He doesn't care about himself so much, and for a woman who still refuses to admit him, he gives up his career that he has been fighting for many years...... Forget it?
She really wanted to grab this man's head, give him a fist, and ask him, have you forgotten the hardships and sins you suffered when you entered SpaceN?
Many people say that China is a humane society, and if you want to get ahead, how can you do it if you have nothing to do with it. Therefore, in order to pursue a more free and broad space, many people sharpen their heads and drill out, only to really put themselves in their shoes, only to find that the moon in foreign countries is not necessarily rounder than China.
Not to mention all kinds of lace in daily life, but in terms of study, Lin Han is really a very good student. Chinese, the most powerful thing is to study, if you can't learn, if you can't learn, you ask, it's really not good, gnaw down the whole book, it's always okay, right?
After He Yalan broke into Lin Han's circle of friends, I heard him brag about it once when he chatted after dinner. At that time, he was not interested in his major, he did not listen to classes, did not do homework, and did not know that he was in a hurry until the end of the semester, and he was worried about the exam, so he simply spent a few nights memorizing the whole book.
He Yalan only listened to jokes at that time, after all, Lin Han never bragged about himself on weekdays, until he followed him and his classmates to the library once, and when someone was flipping through a book, he casually asked how to explain a professional term, and Lin Han said without raising his head on the first few lines of the page.
Everyone refused to believe it at first, and looked for it according to his instructions, and it was really a god, and they really found the explanation, and everyone remembered the bull they bragged about at the beginning, and asked: "Haha, you really came to memorize the book?" ”
Lin Hante said disapprerovingly: "Nonsense, there are still people who tell lies about this thing, dare you never believe me!" ”
Since then, Lin Han has become a god in a war, and when his friends see him, they will call him a scholar. After that, he was selected by the most respected mentor in the industry, and became the most admired disciple of the mentor, who took him to participate in the research of core topics, and also took him to attend conferences and banquets.
Lin Han, who was full of stinky farts in the past, didn't feel anything about them, and it was also later that he went crazy in a nightclub, and after pouring almost a dozen beers and a few glasses of vodka, Lin Han spit out the truth to everyone after drinking, young and vigorous, and had nowhere to vent, except for crazy study, he couldn't find any other way to relieve it. Instead of being proud of it, he felt pathetic.
Everyone ridiculed him for his hypocrisy: "What about women, the marquee woman around you is not enough for you to vent?" We see that you usually look very self-satisfied, why do you pretend to be a scholar for a while. Isn't it a new way to fish for women, there is only one Yalan here, Yalan, have you been deceived by haha? ”
He Yalan didn't speak immediately, Lin Han's face was pale because of drunkenness at the moment, his expression was blurry but numb, and under the shining light, his eyes were full of stars, but they were shining but deep and cold...... He Yalan felt that there was really loneliness and loneliness hidden in this man's restless soul.
***
If a woman thinks she has penetrated the man's soul, she will also think that she can save his life. So when He Yalan sent Lin Han back to his rented cottage that night, and Lin Han hugged her in a daze, He Yalan collapsed on his soft cot without much struggle.
She will fill in his emptiness, and she will make up for his shortcomings, when Lin Han kissed him with a full body of wine, He Yalan felt that he was drunk more than him. The new dress for six hundred dollars a piece, the zipper ran across the side, and he didn't even have the time to untie it, grabbing the hem and tearing it hard.
He Yalan's breathing fluctuated, her snow-white chest stood up under his hands, her immature body trembled under his touch, and they saw each other sincerely, just when she was about to kick the door, she wrapped her hands around his neck and said tremblingly: "Haha, lighter, I'm afraid of pain." ”
An unintentional reminder was like an empowerment, Lin Han gathered his pupils from his disorientation, and when he saw that it was He Yalan who was pressing under him, he suddenly came back to his senses, trembled in fright, and pulled down from her with a rolling belt.
In the second half of the night, no matter how He Yalan whispered relief and begging, Lin Han made up her mind not to touch her again. He Yalan's heart ached so much that she said, "Aren't you just afraid of being responsible, don't worry, I won't pester you and cry like those women." ”
Lin Han woke up most of the time, his thoughts were clear, and he said, "No, Yalan, it's all my fault, it's my fault, it's not worth spending your time on people like me." ”
"It's my business to decide how I want to live, and it's my freedom to spend my time with whomever I want," He said. Haha, I like you, crazy like you, I like you from the first time I saw you, do you know it! ”
Lin Han sat on the floor, his back pressed against the edge of the bed, holding his head in his hands at the moment, scratching it fiercely, and said, "I know, Yalan, of course I know, I just know it, so I can't do this to you because I know." ”
He Yalan was stunned, and then quickly put on her crumpled clothes and walked out of this oppressive and cramped rental house.
He Yalan only later learned that Lin Han was very frustrated during that time, he got a position in the sensational SpaceN, and he was originally proud of the spring breeze and could show his strength, but the high-level executives with bull's ears just took a fancy to the face of the mentor standing behind him.
He's not happy with SpaceN, he's been randomly placed in a marginalized department, doing some simple mechanical work. Because of the so-called "back door" of existence, he was completely unpopular among his colleagues, and many said he brought the Chinese ethos to the company that deals with future technology.
When He Yalan saw him again, she could barely recognize him, he was originally a strong muscle, but now he was so thin that only a skeleton remained, and his hair was extremely short, lining a face with a deeper contour. If he didn't know what his nature was, He Yalan would really wonder if this person was a drug addict or had just been released from prison.
After talking, I learned that Lin Han recently formed a team to overcome the problem, and now it has reached the stage of tackling tough problems, and before that, he has not closed his eyes for three days and three nights. The two had a simple meal at KFC, and when He Yalan came over with a plate, Lin Han had already fallen asleep on the table.
He never mentioned how he spent the years in the empty book, nor did he mention how much effort it took to take on such a project, but everyone knew that he had put in the strength to prove himself, and no matter how bumpy the process was, he would not admit defeat.
Later, the project was accepted smoothly, and the company finally admitted that this Chinese young man did have two brushes, and the bigger task was handed over to him, and the time was very tight, but he was full of confidence. This is a race to decide whether he can enter the core layer, but no one expected that a week after taking this challenge, Lin Han suddenly stopped and insisted on resigning, saying that he had something to go back to China.
Colleagues and friends are anxious for him, hoping that he will not mess up this mission because of a small mistake. Lin Han has already made up his mind, whoever comes to persuade him will leave a black face, he is determined to buy a ticket, wait for the plane, and must return to China immediately.
The result was, of course, futile, as his father intervened and acted harshly, and the airport police arrived and pinned him to the ground, handcuffed him with cold handcuffs, and declared him a dangerous person with bad intentions.
Of course, this incident was later confirmed to be just a mistake, and Lin Han was escorted back to the real room with a blue nose and swollen face, and his father even left two people to monitor him twenty-four hours a day. When He Yalan saw him, he fell to the ground drunk and begged her to contact Xia Ran.
"Du Xisheng's bastard is sorry for her, the two of them are divorced, I'm afraid that Ran Ran can't stand it and will do stupid things, how much she loves Du Xisheng, anyone can ignore him for him...... I can't reach her, she changed her phone, I can't reach her, I can't reach her for a long time......"
Xia Ran, will always be Xia Ran, as if there will always be such an eternal theme in his life.
Even if he recovered from his illness later, as if after some baptism, he finally realized that he worked harder than before, and played with women more powerfully, making everyone believe that he had returned to his original track, He Yalan still faintly felt that it was not so simple.
Now it seems that he used to calculate every step well, he came back when everyone was slack, and then took advantage of Xia Ran's slack to enter, and now all he left was to completely get rid of the past world and embrace the new future he had longed for.
Forget it, it can only be forgotten, even he himself chose to give up, what is the use of her as an outsider in a hurry? The most hateful and jealous is Xia Ran, how can she accept Lin Han's kindness to her with the appearance of a nobody?
It was ten o'clock when the banquet ended, and several colleagues thought that this kind of formal occasion was not energetic enough, so they urged Lin Han and Xia Ran to take them to the city for one more time.
"Let's have a supper, I think about this bite all day long, we browse the web, I heard what kind of skewers are popular in China now, sister-in-law, you take us to see it."
Xia Ran was no longer as jerky as she was at the beginning, thought about it, and said, "Otherwise, I'll take you to eat crayfish, everyone loves to eat this now, although it has just started on the market, there shouldn't be much meat, but this thing is just to eat fresh." There is also a barbecue stand next to the lobster, so you can choose what you like...... I just don't know if you foreign stomachs can adapt to domestic gutter oil. ”
Long live everyone, Lin Han hugged her tightly, kissed her on the forehead, and said, "It's going to be a joke, Ranran, you're making more and more progress." ”
Xia Ran took them to the lobster shop downstairs of Susan's house to open a banquet, this shop's lobsters are clean and delicious, and they are very famous in this area. Lin Han generously wrapped the whole store and told everyone to eat openly.
Susan and Dawei also participated, and seeing that Lin Han's hand never left Xia Ran's shoulder, Dawei's eyes jumped, and the expression on his face was very hideous. As soon as he was about to ask, Susan kicked his leg hard: "Eat you!" ”
Xia Ran didn't notice it, wearing gloves to peel the shrimp, Lin Han leaned over with a dead face, and said, "Ranran, give me food." At this moment, the wine came up, he was so drunk that he couldn't speak clearly, Xia Ran didn't raise the bar with him again, stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth, poured another cup of tea, and handed him a sip.
Halfway through eating, Lin Han finally couldn't resist the strength of the wine, and ran outside to vomit fiercely, Xia Ran wanted to help clean up, who knew that he refused to live or die, and his temper was also good, pushing her and yelling: "You go!" ”
The colleagues didn't want to go, and said: "Haha, it's best to save face, how can you let you see him like a wolf, sister-in-law, you continue to go in and eat, and our brothers will take care of him." ”
It had no choice but to do so, Xia Ran turned around and wanted to leave, and He Yalan stood behind her, she looked at Lin Han with a pair of slender eyes, and then looked at Xia Ran in front of her, and said, "Ranran, I have something to tell you." ”
