A sake bar is a part of the bar.

The left side is quiet and elegant, and the right side is separated by a wall, lively and scarlet, without interfering with each other.

The time for chatting passed too quickly, as if I couldn't talk enough, but in fact, I couldn't remember what I said.

Aya glanced at the time, and Jian Xuanyi calmly stopped talking, "Are you sleepy?" Happy"

"I'm surprised that you need jet lag, brilliant."

He took the cup and dusted it gently, lowered his folded legs, and stood up, "There is a difference between men and women. ”

Aya looked at him, now he speaks, upright and natural, one of the two sentences shows the level, but he is more domineering than before, and he has a much firmer foothold.

Over the years, his temperament has changed a lot and changed for the better.

Does it have anything to do with the environment?

is not the same as an ordinary person like her.

There was some embarrassment, but he didn't feel the distance, and he laughed as sparsely and cheerfully as before.

"Yes, what Mr. Jane said is true."

"Miss Ho will also ridicule people."

Aya didn't raise the bar with him, said sorry, and walked out sideways.

When Jian Xuanyi saw her carrying her bag, she realized, "The bathroom seems to be over there in the hot bar, it's messy inside, I'll go with you." ”

The two walked through the thick arched door, and the noisy music immediately entered their ears, the lights flickered, the red and green were indistinguishable, and Jian Xuanyi waited at the fork in the road.

Splashed his face with water, and out of the bathroom was a large circular terrace, and it was another turn, Aya's eyes just glanced casually, and paused slightly

。

The promenade to which the terrace leads, about seven or eight meters away, stood three or four boys in fashionable clothes.

It was quiet, undisturbed, and several people gathered around, one pinching his nose, another holding a cigarette, and one who seemed to have tin foil in his hand.

The remaining one was leaning against the wall, standing lazily, as if a little drunk, his hands white and with the delicate beauty peculiar to a teenager, rubbing his forehead.

Then, the arm was removed, and the face appeared in Aya's eyes.

Her heart flickered, and she stepped forward.

The three or four boys suddenly found her, and the movements of their hands were all scolding.

The other two quickly turned around.

The silhouette against the wall, the cold handsome face, glanced at it at this time.

Aya's gaze was slightly condensed, the light was a little dim, she squinted, but the other party didn't give her time to see clearly, and the four boys disappeared into the shadows in an instant.

Aya chased after him, and there was a long corridor on the inside of the wall, and there were many boxes.

She was stunned, and Jian Xuanyi shouted from behind.

Aya walked back.

"What's wrong?"

She turned around again, looking slightly worried, and suddenly asked, "Jian Xuanyi, do you remember his son?" ”

"Ziming? My impression of him is when he was a child, which is not common, and the aunt of the Xi family always takes the little one to live in her mother's house. Did you see him? ”

Aya wrinkled her eyebrows, "The lights are too dim, I'm not sure." ”

"Do you want to go in and find out?"

Aya thought about it and shook her head, she didn't want to think that it was him, although Ziming was arrogant and awkward when he was a child, his quality was not bad, how could he mix with the young people who played with tin foil.

Maybe......

Aya stopped thinking about it, and when people came out of the bar with Jian Xuanyi, he naturally had to drive her.

set the navigation, opened a radio station with light music, Jian Xuanyi talked to her less, and she took a nap.

Passing by an intersection, he noticed it and looked in the rearview mirror, but there was no vehicle at close range behind him, Jian Xuanyi held the steering wheel, and his eyes deepened slightly.

The car drove under the apartment building, and he got out of the car together, and the two of them stood in front of the code door.

"Where do you live?"

"For the time being, the aparthotel."

"Aren't you going home?"

He didn't answer, and opened his arms, "Tonight, owe one this, old classmate." ”

Aya was speechless, but she was also generous, leaned over, and let go after leaning down.

Exchanging phone numbers, Aya turned around and pressed the password, waving her hand.

Jian Xuanyi also got into the car and reversed to leave.

The black Bentley, under the tree, was parked for a long time.

His tracking technique, even Jian Xuanyi can't catch it, looking at the windows on the floor, the lights are on, and his eyes are faint and flowery.

Finally it turned into a sting, and he blinked, and there was no expression on his face

。

……**……

Zuo Long beckoned his men to go down to the cellar and bring over your oldest bottles.

The younger brothers were afraid of falling, so they all got it, Zuo Long got into the car, and drove towards the Xi Mansion with a smoke.

Thirty-storey building at night, the top floor is lit up.

Zuo Long carried the red wine in the wooden box with one arm, and the building security opened the elevator door and went straight to the top floor.

Waving off the security guard, he walked to the president's office, and in front of the entire wall of glass, he could already see the figure of a man reclining on the sofa.

It's not a good place to drink.

Zuo Long pushed the door in, only to see his decadent appearance, cold facial features, eyes closed, long legs on the glass table, ashtray cracked, and his slender fingers, all bloody, sandwiched with a extinguished cigarette.

"Brother Cheng."

He seemed to wake up, changed the position of his ankle up and down, and threw the cigarette butt: "It's on." ”

Listening to his hoarse voice, his face is delicate and watery, not revealing the slightest, only cold fatigue.

Zuo Long turned around and went to the cabinet to get the wine glass, he stared at the red liquid down the wall of the glass with heavy eyes, and as soon as the mouth of the wine bottle left, he took a sip and drank it all.

Cold quenched Adam's apple is cold and hard to slide a few times.

"Brother Cheng, I also brought snacks and food."

"Red wine with snacks?" He laughed slowly.

Zuo Long just didn't want him to drink empty, he leaned back his heavy body, and smiled: "The clan is so cousin, my side is a big man, friends are all over the world, and there are only you and Ah Wei who can talk about it, you look at the rough people, but in fact, you are careful, Ah Wei's kid doesn't understand anything, and now he ......"

Zuo Long sat down, "This year, I went to sweep the tomb and gave me good wine and food. ”

He played with the slender fingers of the wine glass, the goblet circled, and landed steadily, he stared at the wine stains falling on his shirt, probably remembered something, and smiled calmly: "Ah Wei likes her." ”

When Zuo Long heard this, he changed color slightly.

He leaned on the armrest of the sofa, squinting over, and the sharp peaks of his eyebrows in the sideburns were also reckless when he was lightly raised.

"You can hide it from my eyes," he pointed his fingers back, cold and lazy.

Zuo Long said: "No matter what, Brother Cheng, Ah Wei has gone, and he has brought everything to the grave. ”

"I said I'm going to dig his grave?"

Zuo Long was silent.

He laughed twice, and then the graceful smile scattered on the corner of the thin blade's lips, in a trance, and whispered, "It's her beauty, quietly fascinating people." The more filthy our road is, the more we like clean people. Innocent and innocent, as beautiful as a white lotus, when she was under the protection of He Jingguo, she was just a delicate little flower, which shook people's eyes. ”

Zuo Long knew that his words were inseparable from tonight's events.

"I've been wandering for half my life, I'm late to meet her, and my love has been open, and I know my feelings, it's. The stomach is full of sourness, the heart and eyes are narrow, and the pain is stronger than a few bullets. ”

After a few drinks, Zuo Long looked at him, his peerless face, handsome face, or vicissitudes, added a bit of loneliness.

"Is it true that she is only alive and dead in front of me?"

He leaned over suddenly, grabbed the collar, Zuo Long left him, his eyes were half-closed, and he couldn't hide his sadness, staring at him, "Is she trembling in front of you?" ”

"Brother Cheng, Miss He is that character

。 ”

"No, you think I haven't seen her talk to you?"

He pressed his temples, his finger bones cold and stiff, and murmured, "Aaron, she can smile so beautifully." ”

"She wasn't born timid, she lived with straight nerves. It's someone who doesn't make her feel relaxed, she can be at ease, and she will have a funny expression with her eyes pouting and pouting, she actually ...... Just like any other little girl,"

"Brother Cheng," he saw, his eyes were stunned, and the bottom of his narrow eyes fell like ashes.

He shook his head, did he drink high, put down the wine glass, those few cold fingers gradually covered his eyes, he slowly arched his back, and chuckled: "Back then, He Jingguo said that his Aya would be matched with an ordinary man in the future, I watched it all night tonight, and suddenly understood, father looks at daughter, look at life." She likes to be clean, decent, doesn't stress her, and can talk and laugh freely, yes. ”

"Jian Xuanyi, I'm checking," Zuo Long took out a text message with a Didi sound, "He works for the United Nations Security Council, and it doesn't seem that there is a complicated network, maybe he hasn't found out yet." ”

He waved his hand, "Xuanyi, I understand, when he first arrived in the United States, he was decadent for three years, and then he went crazy, got rid of Jian Tingyun's control, broke with my faction, ran away and disappeared, for so many years, if he didn't become bad, he became better." Good or evil? He doesn't go that way. ”

Zuo Long noticed that there was something in his words, and he twisted his eyebrows slightly.

Sure enough, he said: "The Zhang family's side has been moving one after another recently, and Uncle Qing has warned me several times not to go against the sky, but in fact, I have the simplest idea,"

The body slowly fell back on the sofa, he looked at the roof, his voice was slow and deep, with light pain, "I took her to my side, I want to protect her in this life, I am afraid that if I fall, Jiashu and her, the mother and mother are helpless." Those jackals, who just hate to tear me apart, will they be kind to her? No, I'm starting to be afraid of getting old, I'm afraid that I'm not going to be strong. ”

"Marrying her is also a risky move, and it is my selfishness to be tied to her, and I want to be with her for a long time...... I even thought that if I left first, I would kill her before leaving, and I would never let others torture her. ”

Zuo Long sighed, such love, suffocating.

His eyes gradually lost their luster in the cold smile, and he smiled lightly and bitterly: "Actually, think about it, if Jian Xuanyi really has the ability to protect people, she will go to his side......"

"Brother Cheng! You never accept your fate. ”

He closed his eyes and smiled: "But I love her, and it's better to go to the grave to worship when I see her." ”

"If you drink too much, you're cowardly, aren't you? After so many years, I realized that she was not stubborn, she was unhappy. ”

……**……

Qingmeng only came back in the morning.

Aya wakes up early, and the kitchen is clanging, preparing breakfast.

She turned around and glanced at Qingmeng, who was neatly groomed, not an extrovert, and would not tease anything.

However, Sun Qingmeng read a piece of toast and came over, "He Xiaoya, what have you been staring at me, we adults ......"

"You drink milk!" Aya gagged her.

Sun Qingmeng laughed, was quiet for a while, and asked her softly, "Did you have a good chat with Jian Xuanyi last night?" ”

"He has become righteous and dignified, and he has become much more gentle."

"It's more attractive."

Aya still held the spatula in her hand, eager to explain, "Qingmeng,"

"I'm getting married, I can't let go...... Aya, you're single now, actually,"

"You're mistaken, Qingmeng

。 ”

"Oh, let's not mention a stinky man, awkward, okay?"

Aya smiled, "Last night I asked Jian Xuanyi why he didn't go home to live, but he didn't answer. ”

"His temperament," Sun Qingmeng shook his head, "He went abroad, it was Uncle Jian who forced him, of course the dominant force is Boss Xi...... Where will he be convinced, I chased him to the United States the next year, but I didn't find him, and his family was also looking for him. ”

"I didn't find that bastard until the next year, guess? He's begging in Michigan and he's a bum! ”

Aya was surprised: "What's going on?" ”

"It's too toss-up! But for so many years, he has really worked hard from scratch, from a homeless man to the United Nations, and can write a bloody book of struggle. ”

Aya also guessed that it must be difficult, and he took the opposite path to Xicheng.

Sighing and having breakfast, Aya went out with her bag, she had a good conversation with the head teacher last night, a little eyebrows, she bought something today and went to the head teacher's house in person.

The head teacher is a warm-hearted person, who took Aya's class for five years, and liked the child in the class who won every essay contest very much.

After so many years, the head teacher has retired, and Aya has something to ask for, and she is also willing to help.

The following week, the head teacher took Aya to meet with several leaders of her daughter's university.

However, now the qualifications of teachers are very strict, even if there is a back door of acquaintances, it is difficult to say.

The head teacher means that being a teaching assistant is actually not so good, the salary is very low at first, and the exam will take nearly a year.

Aya has a tendon, since she has troubled so many people, then work hard to take the exam first, and if she is passed by the exam, if the university doesn't want her, then it's okay, at least she has an extra qualification certificate in hand.

The difficulties are temporary, and the long-term vision should be longer, survive this year, and every time you see Xiaoshu in the future, you will have more confidence and more economy.

A week later, she registered online for her exam for next March.

This year, I have to squeeze with Qingmeng, that guy is preparing for marriage, and he said with a big grin that as soon as he gets married, he will be rough, and the house will be at her disposal.

How could Aya be so cheeky and forcibly signed a lease contract with her, such a good house, she has to give a thousand rents per month.

couldn't help it, Sun Qingmeng bared her teeth and laughed at her: I glanced at your SMS balance that day, then you have to find a part-time job quickly!

It's got to be found, alas.

I was browsing on my phone, but the call came.

"Jian Xuanyi?"

"At home?"

"Is there something wrong with you?"

"It's only been a little over a week, old classmate, are you so alienated?"

Aya got up from her chair and rolled her eyes slightly, "Haven't you returned to the United States yet?" ”

There was silence for a few seconds, and a slightly angry voice, "Even if I go back, I have to invite you and Sun Qingmeng to have a meal before!" ”

Aya smiled, "Don't be angry, is there something wrong?" ”

"You can come out when you are free, Sun Qingmeng is busy purchasing dowry, I don't dare to trouble her eldest lady, then please Miss He out of the hole, I want to buy household supplies, I am an older young man, you know?"

"You're not going back to the United States?"

Jian Xuanyi rubbed her eyebrows, "Even if you want me to go back to the old beauty, don't show it so obviously, I will be sad."

。 ”

Aya was slightly stunned, did she subconsciously think so in her words?

sighed secretly, yes, life has given her old-fashionedness, and now she has become lazy and sensitive, and a little movement makes her feel tired.

In fact, Jian Xuanyi was very good, the class reunion that day was just a small gathering, and he was very busy this week, so he didn't contact her.

Maybe...... I can't help but think too much.

Aya brushed her thoughts, and said there, "The new task is down, it will take some time, I have to deal with the administrative district for a while, and the Tiantian Apartment Hotel is not a problem, I simply found an apartment on the Internet, the furniture and appliances are new, but the daily necessities are not yet." ”

Know.

This is too busy, Aya can't refuse.

It just so happened that she was also going to the book city to buy some direction books.

Turning off the computer, carrying the bag, and changing shoes at the door, Aya looked at the time, "Where is the appointment?" A large supermarket near your new home, things are bits and pieces, and there are more to buy, too far away to be inconvenient to mention. ”

"OK, don't move, I'll pick you up."

"No need to ......"

"A gentleman's gift."

Aya hung up the phone, took her mobile phone and began to browse the recruitment website again, while browsing, she sent a voice message to Xiao Shu, at noon, it was lunch time in kindergarten.

Chatting with Xiao Shu, Jian Xuanyi went downstairs.

Aya went out and got in the car, and he drove to Hong Kong Island South Road, Aya smiled and said: "This area is a cultural district, is there a very high-end apartment?" ”

"Do I look like I have to live in a fancy apartment?"

Aya was always choked by him, so she simply didn't say anything, anyway, it was convenient for her, and the largest book city happened to be in this area.

The shadows of the trees on the side of the road flashed at an even speed, passing through a familiar intersection, Aya was a little distracted, and after the day Xiao Shu bought an umbrella here, she actually came alone twice, but there was no gain.

The two went to the largest life supermarket, and Aya helped Jian Xuanyi make a list in advance, and the purchase was orderly.

Jian Xuanyi's idea, she quickly solved it, the supermarket exit, Aya planned to part ways with him, "I'll go to the Book City." ”

"Dinner, Mr. He."

was stubbornly invited by him, so he had to put the big and small piles of things in the trunk first, and Jian Xuanyi drove and asked her to lead the way to find a restaurant.

Naturally, Aya has never been to a big place, but there are a few small restaurants on the side of the road, and I turned into an alley, Aya pointed the way, "Stop on the left, there is a delicious beef brisket noodle restaurant in front." ”

The two got off the car and had to pass through the intersection of the two residential areas, there was no store within a few tens of meters, and the garden was in the middle, a little quiet.

But when I was walking through the small crossroads, I heard the sound of fighting.

Jian Xuanyi noticed it first, stretched out his arm to pull Aya back, and his hand crossed the suit jacket to the inside of his waist and walked forward.

Aya opened her eyes before him, ran out, and shouted, "Ziming? ”

Among the two people fighting under the tree, there was a thin and grim figure that froze

。

Aya confirmed, "Ziming! ”

"Mother!" The man who was at the disadvantage withdrew his hand, tattooed his head, and scolded: "Ten thousand thirteen! After doing business so many times, you dare to give me less money? ”

"Young Master Ben is rare!" The young man wiped the blood from his mouth coldly, and threw the money in the face.

The tattooed man also threw the contents of the small bag over, and as soon as he caught it, he clenched it tightly, turned around and strode away.

"Ziming." Aya ran up to chase after her.

Jian Xuanyi asked, "Zhang Ziming?" ”

"It's him," Aya's face was a little cold from the wind, showing a slightly painful expression, and whispered, "It's really him." ”

Jian Xuanyi stepped forward and shouted to ignore people, he stretched out his arms, Zhang Ziming moved extremely fast, and shook off coldly, when he turned around, Aya came to him, his hair was dripping with water, he had just been washed, and he was blown cold by the wind, his face, with cold edges and corners, had grown into a handsome young man, but his eyes were like a cold pool, and he stared at Aya fiercely at this time.

The plaid shirt on his body was torn, a diamond stud was drilled into his ear bones, his hair was jet black, and his forehead was slightly longer.

It's not like a bad student, but it's not a good student, and his expression is very gloomy from beginning to end.

After staring at each other for a long time, Aya faced his indifference mixed with ridicule, ridicule mixed with provocation, and she seemed to be smiling but not smiling, she suddenly opened her eyes, and the nerves in her temples jumped suddenly.

Facing each other, Jian Xuanyi observed silently, while the two people facing each other did not make a sound.

The weather is very bad today, and it seems that a typhoon is coming, and the wind is hanging and it is cold.

I don't know how long it took.

"Long time no see." Zhang Ziming smiled slightly.

His hand was always behind him, and Jian Xuanyi glanced at him several times without moving.

Aya walked in front of him slowly, she was a lot taller than her, she hadn't seen her for four years, in fact, when she came to this area the first two times to try her luck to find him, Aya was apprehensive.

Hope to find him.

But ......

Those who have done wrong things can no longer hold their heads up.

"Ziming, do you live here?"

"Oh, so you remember me."

Aya felt uncomfortable, "Today, Thursday, why didn't you go to school?" ”

"Auntie, are you going to discipline me?"

"Zhang Ziming." Jian Xuanyi let out a deep voice.

The young man's cold eyes squinted, swirling on the handsome man's face, and then returned to Aya's face, he raised his eyebrows uninhibitedly, pointed at the two, and smiled: "The market is very good, I left Xicheng, this is the new master?" You don't pick or choose, uncle and nephew come in turn. ”

The shoulder was suddenly grabbed by Jian Xuanyi, Aya obviously felt his anger, and immediately stepped forward and pressed Jian Xuanyi's bulging arm, "Jian Xuanyi, you let go first." ”

"When I grow up, my mouth is not clean." Jian Xuanyi scolded.

Zhang Ziming Nunu mouthed, "Brother Xuanyi? Oh, what has become of me, I have to be grateful to this one. ”

Aya's hands were cold.

--- digression--- am I abusing you for too long, everyone doubts today's April Fool's Day, I feel deeply guilty... Two more than ten o'clock.
