This night, when it was almost seven o'clock, I asked Jin Qiu out again, and we met at the coffee shop downstairs from the company, she drank latte, and I drank tea.

In the coffee shop, sandalwood is lit to calm people, and I don't like the smell of sandalwood mixed with tobacco, so I didn't have a habit of lighting a cigarette, but I lit a lady's cigarette in Jinqiu.

I asked her, "What did you think of that contract, and can you find an entry point for the lawsuit?" ”

"I have read the contract carefully, and there is a clause in it that has loopholes to catch, if you have to fight a lawsuit, the on-site play is very important......" After a slight pause, Jin Qiu said again: "I personally assess that the chances of winning this lawsuit should be half." ”

I nodded, then took out the DV that recorded many valuable images from my bag, handed it to Jin Qiu and said: "I spent a day paying a return visit to the customers that the company has served before, everyone is doing well, and the evaluation of the company is also very good, you can take a look at the first ......"

Jin Qiu flicked the cigarette ash and then took the DV from my hand, and I didn't deliberately use inflammatory words to describe the picture recorded in the DV, I wanted Jin Qiu to see this video in a state of ignorance, if even she, a hard-hearted person, can be moved, then the impact on the public is incomparable.

In the process, Jin Qiu's expression kept changing, so much so that he forgot that he still had a cigarette in his hand. After a long time, she finally put down the DV and said to me, "Are these all the customers our company has served for several years?" ”

"Well, all kinds of people have ...... By the way, the images of the wedding scene are kept by the administration department, and we can intersperse the images of the wedding into this video, and I believe that the impact will definitely be stronger than now! ”

Jin Qiu nodded, and then fell into deep thought......

"So many customers are very face-saving to come back to support us, every picture is from the bottom of your heart, don't you dare to fight this lawsuit?"

Jin Qiu's fingers tapped rhythmically on the tabletop, her brows furrowed, and it was obvious that she was making the most rigorous trade-offs in her heart. After a few moments, she finally said, "Hit, hit hard, hit until the whole city knows it......"

I nodded, victory or defeat is not the most important thing for this lawsuit, the important thing is to attract the attention of the public, and then spread the excellent cases we have done at the most suitable time, which is an effect that cannot be achieved by spending no amount of advertising money, not to mention that this matter also involves Yuan Zhen, a well-known musician, it is difficult not to attract attention.

I smiled and said to Jin Qiu, "I just appreciate your adventurous spirit, which makes me feel that the former Jin Qiu is back!" ”

"You don't come...... The golden autumn of the past can't come back. She looked at the cigarettes on the table, smiled helplessly, and said, "At least I can't quit this cigarette." ”

I looked at her and wanted to know what she had experienced in her years abroad, but I was more concerned about Yuan Zhen's affairs, so I asked, "Yuan Zhen's affairs, can you accept mediation now?" ”

"You've done so much painstaking work, if I still don't accept mediation, you don't know how to say that I'm not close to Jinqiu...... Let's go, go to the police station. ”

"Now?"

"Well, now."

……

Outside the door of the police station, the cold wind blew my collar up, and I smoked and waited. After a while, Yuan Zhen finally came out of the police station, he was standing in front of me, I fumbled in my pocket for a while, then pulled out a cigarette and handed it to him.

He needed it so badly that he took it from my hand and said "thank you".

I said to him, "If you pay my friend's medical expenses, lost work expenses, and nutrition expenses, this matter has nothing to do with you." ”

Yuan Zhen took a puff of cigarette and replied, "It has nothing to do with me, does this matter still have anything to do with you?" ”

"Leave that alone, I'm just doing a little favor. I just hope that you won't be so impulsive in doing things in the future, otherwise Xiao Ai will suffer too much if you follow behind...... Listen to her, you're in love. ”

Yuan Zhen didn't look at me, and he didn't say anything. Actually, I'm just reminding that the so-called impulse is something that people will have, and sometimes after being stimulated, people's behavior often exceeds thinking, so while reminding Yuan Zhen, I am not a person who can completely restrain impulses in this unfair world.

Half of the cigarette burned in Yuan Zhen's hand, he flicked the ash of the cigarette and said to me: "There is no friendship between the two of us, you are helping me so much for Xiao Ai, right?" …… What is the relationship between you and her? ”

His sudden question caught me off guard, and I lit a cigarette before replying, "It's to help Xiao Ai...... I'm friends with her. ”

He nodded, and then said, "Xiao Ai and I remember this favor...... However, I don't want you to get too close to her, I heard that there was a time when you often went to Nanyi to look for her. ”

The hostile emotion in my heart suddenly came out of my heart for no reason, I frowned and looked at Yuan Zhen, but I thought of Chen Yi for a moment. I'm Chen Yi's boyfriend, why should I care about what Yuan Zhen said to me? …… There is nothing between me and Xiao Ai at all, why is it instinctively reluctant to explain.

At this time, the familiar Mercedes-Benz came with a roaring attitude and stopped in an open space not far away, and then I saw Xiao Ai and Ji Xiaowei who hurriedly walked down from the car.

Ji Xiaowei thanked me again and again, Xiao Ai hugged Yuan Zhen, crying and blaming him, Yuan Zhen was still silent, just hugged Xiao Ai and asked her not to cry......

Xiao Ai finally left Yuan Zhen's arms, she looked at me, but did not approach me, and said to me: "Jiangqiao, thank you...... This incident has caused such serious consequences, and it has also made me realize a lot, from now on I will not live in the shadow of Li Zishan anymore. ”

I nodded, full of emotions in my heart, but simply replied, "That's good......"

"Hmm."

Ji Xiaowei asked me to have dinner another day, and then led Xiao Ai and Yuan Zhen to the Mercedes-Benz car, Yuan Zhen put his arm on Xiao Ai's shoulder, and I kept looking at their departing backs, as if I saw their unbeatable friendship over the years, but I was never a participant between them.

A cold wind blew, and I tucked my clothes tighter again, but the wind still blew in through the gap in my neckline with the loneliness that the world never lacks, and I took a deep breath of cigarette, if I live happily at the moment, loneliness is not a precious gift.

The car had begun to turn around, and I saw the brilliant fireworks rising from the square in the distance, and all the colors fell on the car window......

……

Returning to Tulip Road alone, I bought a small wonton that Chen Yi liked the most and returned to the coffee shop, thinking that Chen Yi would wait for me in the coffee shop as usual, but I didn't want to be in her favorite position, sitting was her father Chen Anzhi, who was also the person I was most afraid of seeing, he definitely didn't just come to drink coffee.

I knew that some things would have to be faced sooner or later, so I pushed open the door of the coffee shop, and then stood in front of him and shouted in a low voice, "Uncle Chen." ”

Chen Anzhi motioned for me to sit, and then asked me, "How is your work lately?" ”

His innate sense of majesty put a lot of pressure on me, and I didn't dare to make a mistake, so I was stunned for a moment before replying: "I left the wedding company some time ago, and now I run this coffee shop, so I can do some small business on my own." ”

Chen Anzhi looked around at this coffee shop, and then said to me: "Jiang Qiao, I watched you grow up since I was a child, and I won't beat around the bush with you...... I know that you and Chen Yi have a childhood relationship, but the gap between people cannot be ignored, so her mother and I are not optimistic about the relationship between you...... While it's not out of control, let's end it quickly......"

I felt a pang in my heart, as if I was trampled under the damn reality, and it took a long time to reply: "Uncle, I have a real relationship with Chen Yi, please give me some time, okay?" …… I ......"

Before I could finish my sentence, I had already been interrupted, and he said, "I don't doubt that you have feelings now, but what about later? …… I'd love to ask you, do you know what environment Chen Yi lives in? Who are in her circle, what do her colleagues talk about every day, and how much do you know? …… Jiang Qiao, you have been in contact with this society since you were a teenager, and you may see the reality of society more clearly than those of us who are engaged in cultural work at a glance, you have done so many weddings yourself, and how many couples like you and Chen Yi are not in the right household? ”

I was silent, and in the silence I saw the fact that it was like steel, and although Chen Anzhi's words were not good, they could not be refuted, and he shattered the long-standing self-comfort and illusion in my heart.

Of course I know who Chen Yi's circle is, the boyfriend of any woman there, or the man she marries, is either rich or expensive, not to mention Chen Yi, who is much better than them, and people are the most unbearable animals, after a long time, can Chen Yi really maintain his original intention?

After a long time, I finally said to Chen Anzhi: "Uncle, I will work hard, give me some time, okay?" ”

Chen Anzhi looked at me, and after he sighed, he replied: "Jiang Qiao, please understand the feelings of uncles and aunts as parents, there is no shortage of people in this world who work hard, what is lacking is people who can really gain something after hard work." You and Chen Yi are destined to be not all the way, as a father, I must protect Chen Yi's marriage, because we have seen too many similar tragedies...... I must not let a tragedy like your parents happen to you and Chen Yi again......! ”

My brain was a little messy, so messy that I couldn't grasp the point of the words, I just looked at Chen Anzhi with some cringe, I was afraid that he would take Chen Yi away from me in this way, as long as I remembered that picture, I didn't want to stay in this world for a second longer......

Chen Anzhi looked at me with complicated eyes and reminded me to think it through, then left the coffee shop with his briefcase.

After he left, the little wontons I bought for Chen Yi were already cold, and I kept babbling, saying things I couldn't understand, but this didn't soothe the depression in my heart, I suddenly went crazy and wanted to find Chen Yi, I wanted to hug her, forget everything in this world and hug her......
