Chapter 113: Less than Lovers
"Shall you go to your apartment?" Wang Sisi pretended to be inadvertently tempted. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Fan Chengze's knuckles holding the steering wheel were a little harder, and the car was quiet for a few seconds, but there was a suffocating feeling. "I'm going back to the villa in the evening." He laughs.
"Oh. Next time, then. Although Wang Sisi was unhappy in his heart, he felt that it was reasonable, after all, the eldest brother of the Fan family had just arrived home, so he didn't care.
Fan Chengze smiled and didn't answer again. Wang Sisi touched the CD switch, and a slow music came out of the car, a familiar prelude, and a slightly magnetic sad female voice, which suddenly opened Fan Chengze's mind that he was trying to hide. This familiar song made Fan Chengze take a deep breath, turn his face to the window, and turn back calmly, looking at the flickering lights ahead, his heart was as silent as ashes.

This CD was bought by Su Xiaoyan, this "Almostlover" was written by American singer Afinefrenzy when he was 18 years old, and it is the first single in the album "Onecellinthesea". At that time, Su Xiaoyan also sighed, how could an 18-year-old girl be so sad. Her eyes turned red when she heard it for the first time, and Fan Chengze also laughed at her for being a young man in her bones. Su Xiaoyan doesn't sing much, but her choice of songs is very tasteful. Some niche and unpopular and beautiful songs can be snatched by her. Zhao Yu occasionally took his car, and he would take a few with a dead face.
Wang Sisi didn't notice Fan Chengze's sudden silence, she was looking at her mobile phone, happily showed it to Fan Chengze, and said, "My cousin showed me the wedding dress in Italy, look at it, how about it?" I look good, but I'm worried that I don't know if it's the right fit if I haven't tried it on? ”
Fan Chengze glanced hard and said, "It's not bad, I'm driving." ”
Wang Sisi stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, and continued to look at his mobile phone while commenting, and Fan Chengze replied vaguely. Does the thought along the way foreshadow their future?
Before getting out of the car, Wang Sisi hugged Fan Chengze's neck and kissed her, she has always been so active, and Fan Chengze regretted her connivance so much. He doesn't hate her now, he hates himself. Such an indifferent and indifferent temperament, in addition to keeping Su Xiaoyan, who didn't know his name at the time, in H City, also tied Wang Sisi today.
He pressed the rewind button, listened to "Almostlover" repeatedly, and drove to the apartment. Pushing open the door, the familiar smell is a little more cold. The whole room seems to be business as usual, but the key on the dining table reminds that everything is no longer the same. Wang Sisi wouldn't know that in this life, he Fan Chengze would not take her here. He walked into the room and opened the cabinet, his clothes were neatly hung, but Su Xiaoyan's was gone. Her cosmetics in the bathroom, her microsheets in the drawers, her books on the shelves, she is really a person who holds a grudge, even the small things she brought have been cleaned up, she said, "Fan Chengze, every time we meet in the future, we should be strangers." "She didn't want to be in his world anymore. Fan Chengze was unable to lie on the bed, he pinched the long hair on the pillow with his hand, and tears flowed from his open eyes.
Su Xiaoyan hadn't gone home yet, Xiao Qiuyun sat blankly, looking at the clock on the wall, his face didn't know when it was cold. The key turned, she quickly wiped her face and walked over.
"Mom, why haven't you slept yet?" Su Xiaoyan asked.
"I boiled some soup, I'm afraid you will forget, so I'll wait for you." Xiao Qiuyun said with a smile.
"It's too late, it'll be swollen if you drink it." Su Xiaoyan was happy and apologetic.
"yes, yes. I'm stupid. Xiaoyan, why are you so busy these days? You okay. Xiao Qiuyun was slightly nervous. Su Xiaoyan paused slightly while changing her slippers, looked up and smiled at her, and said, "I took leave a few days ago, and everything was pressed, and it had to be done." Mom, go to bed early, I'll go to rest too. ”
"Okay, okay, Xiaoyan, I'll make multigrain steamed buns to eat tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay, Mom, whatever, I'll sleep." Su Xiaoyan's pretense was ordinary, but it stung Xiao Qiuyun, looking at her daughter's thin back, she couldn't move her body. Su Xiaoyan felt her mother's worry, suddenly turned around, gave her a bright smile, and said, "Mom, I'm fine, you go to sleep." ”
Xiao Qiuyun nodded hurriedly and turned around and entered the room, and as soon as he closed the door, he cried. Her daughter's forbearance and haggard are like a sharp sword, and she is distressed. Suda was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked her what was wrong.
"Our mother has passed, why are you dragging your daughter's happiness to the funeral? Mom is such a good person, she loves Xiaoyan the most, if she has a spirit in the sky, how can she be willing to let Xiaoyan be so ...... and so pitiful? Xiao Qiuyun choked up and couldn't speak, and sat there sobbing. Suda was at a loss for what to do, and stood aside with his hands down. The pain and anger of his grandmother's death gradually faded, and he remembered that the pain on Su Xiaoyan's face that day was no less than his own. And when he was excited, he said: "You can't be with the people of the Fan family in your life." Su Xiaoyan actually nodded meekly, but now thinking back to her disheartened expression at that time, how could she not be sorry as a parent.
"I was also angry!" Suda said with annoyance.
Xiao Qiuyun lay down and muttered, "My daughter is really too difficult. ”
"Qiuyun, don't be sad, you find a chance to tell the child, Dad is just angry, we are willing to be with whoever she wants to be with."
"Alas! Go to sleep. ”
Su Xiaoyan washed hastily, lay on her back on the bed and didn't want to move, her eyes were wide open, she had been insomnia for several days, and as soon as her eyes were closed, her heart would hurt, so she could only keep herself busy until she was very tired and tired, and she could not sleep. In the past few days, she has done all the work she can do, she has helped all the people in the department edit the news, do all the quarterly plans and writing outlines, and she will not come back until Li Xiang calls her at night and tells her to go home.
The bedside slip had been sitting on it for many days, but she still couldn't help but pick it up and look at it. This micro-single is all taken in the apartment. Standing side by side Fan Chengze and Xixi brushing their teeth, Fan Chengze who was cooking, and Fan Chengze who was standing against the light, the two of them were entangled in their hands and ......, one by one, all of the years they had passed together. Looking at it, Su Xiaoyan let tears hang all over her face, she pressed the delete button, but she couldn't press it, so she could only turn off the camera and lie back down.
On such a night, they stretched out their hands to each other, but they could only levitate in mid-air. Perhaps, one day, it can be forgotten that life is the medicine for forgetfulness.
Fan Chengguang slept very deeply in the villa, he hadn't slept so peacefully for a long time. Chen Jun got up in the middle of the night and quietly pushed forward many times, and saw that he was sleeping well in the same position, and unconsciously had a smile on his face. She looked at the garage outside the window, and Fan Chengze didn't come back. His coldness and pain were well hidden. Grandma said that the young couple must have gone to the apartment, but she knew that it was not like that. How could Fan Chengze take Wang Sisi, who is not yet engaged, to live with him? He just didn't want to go back to the villa. When I ate at night, the things I was used to seemed awkward. Originally, she took care of Fan Chengguang a little more, and the family was used to it. However, while she loved Fan Chengguang, she also took care of Fan Chengze's emotions, which made everyone a little uncomfortable. Fan Chengze has been pretending to be happy. Thinking of this, Chen Jun found that he was distressed. She really can't be treated the same, but she really doesn't treat Fan Chengze as an outsider in her heart. She believes that the home she has worked so hard to maintain will restore calm.
Fan Chengguang got up early the next day, and he was a little surprised not to see Fan Chengze after breakfast, but he didn't ask too much, and went to the apartment to find him after eating.
"Why didn't you come back last night?"
"Brother, aren't you afraid of disturbing me so early?"
Fan Chengguang smiled, looked in the direction of the bedroom, and said, "In the future, we will all be a family, and it doesn't hurt to bump into it." Besides, I still know you. How could she be here? This place. As he spoke, he looked around.
Fan Chengze smiled bitterly and changed the subject: "If you don't take a few days off, are you going to start working?" ”
Fan Chengguang showed an approving expression and said, "You really know me, and you know that I have wasted too much time in it when I talk to you about work!" People like us can only continue to accumulate wealth and grow bigger in order not to be pushed down. Why am I so miserable? In addition to Shuangrong, the reason is still in me, I am not strong enough, so once I am frustrated, I can't save myself. ”
Fan Chengze saw a gloomy light in Fan Chengguang's eyes, and heard him continue: "Only if you are strong, can you get what you want." Brother, I'm sorry for you. However, believe in my brother, Tianyi will get better and better! ”
"Don't talk about that, brother, these are my own choices. It's all over, I'm the same as you think, let's do a good job of the company. ”
The brothers sat opposite each other, and for the first time, the assistants sent the company's recent reports and project plans, discussed together, and in a blink of an eye, it was noon, hastily ate takeout, and continued to work.
"Let's go about it, let's put the reform plan down and see how it reacts within the company. Take advantage of these days, I'll go out for a bit. ”
"Why are you going?"
"Looking for Li Shuangrong!" Fan Chengguang replied that no one could find her, only he could find her. After all, he is the one who knows her best in the world.
Fan Chengze nodded and said, "I will also do the preliminary work of the track project first, and I will not be in K City these days." You say the company is fine, right? ”
"I just let them mess up, and when it's messy, I know who stays and who leaves, and then I can put them to death and come back to life."
As the sun set, the two stood on the balcony, looking at the sky outside, smoking cigarettes.
"Thank you, Aze." Fan Chengguang stopped Fan Chengze's shoulder and said movingly: "Your happiness, I can only say I'm sorry." Fan Chengguang had a momentary impulse to say to Fan Chengze that since the contract was signed, he would regret the marriage. The project can still be a win-win situation without Wang Sisi. However, no matter how despicable the mall is, it is impossible for him to teach his younger brother to be so treacherous. This contradiction was like an ant in his heart, and he was annoyed with it.
"It's all over, brother." Fan Chengze said lightly. seems to be comforting the tangled brother. The light of the setting sun shone lazily on his face, and there was a sadness that could not be erased.
Under Chen Xinran's daily invitation, Su Xiaoyan agreed to dinner once. She was wearing a loose hemp skirt, her hair had been tied into a ponytail, there was a faint sadness in her eyes, and there was coldness in her gestures, especially a big calico bag that particularly set off her taste.
"It's so pretty." Chen Xinran said.
"This bag was sent to me by Cheng Xi. Handmade, she said, she imagined what it would be like to carry it on my shoulder when she saw it. Su Xiaoyan explained with a smile.
"I mean, you're good-looking. Haggard beauty. “
Su Xiaoyan frowned slightly, she was obviously very unhappy to hear this, so she opened her bag and took out her mobile phone and put it on the table. Her movements showed her impatience. How could Chen Xinran not understand, she was a little embarrassed, and quickly changed the topic and talked about the restaurant's main dishes and the like. The two of them talk about everything, but they don't talk about the Fan family. After eating, sitting and chatting again, Su Xiaoyan felt Chen Xinran's enthusiasm and catering all night, and felt a little apologetic after his emotions calmed down.
"Have you met him?"
"When I met once, he said that he was going out to find Li Shuangrong, but I didn't accompany him."
"If you find it, you'll get divorced, right? It's not good for you to be like this now. “
"Xiaoyan, I really don't care. As long as he's okay, as long as we're together. “
"Xinran, I feel that we are going farther and farther, I can't understand your happiness, and you don't understand my determination." Su Xiaoyan's sadness was obvious, and when she saw Chen Xinran's whispers to her, although she was touched, she didn't care, and said with a smile: "It would be good if the clouds could be light and light." ”
Chen Xinran held her hand and said, "I'm not as brave as you." Life is not about what you want to get or success, but about being able to let go of what you can't get. Xiaoyan, you're better than me, really. ”
The night outside the window is wrapped in neon, and the lights of the city are virtually beautiful. (To be continued.) )
