Chapter 35: The Future That Can't Be Designed
If she is young, a woman may go to a bar to get drunk, cry in front of a man, and show the world the greatness and fearlessness of love. However, a 30-year-old woman, between indulgence and restraint, chose the latter. They would rather have the scar carved in their hearts than the wrinkles carved into the corners of their eyes.
Su Xiaoyan and Chen Xinran ate dinner quietly and no longer mentioned Fan Chengguang. The feeling of love may only need an electric spark, but it takes time to let go. Even if you can't let go, love can be wrapped in life and hidden deep inside.
Chen happily accepted his parents' arrangement and began to go on a blind date. I heard that this time it was a prosecutor, and he specially sent a photo to Su Xiaoyan to see. Su Xiaoyan replied with four words: "The eye edge is good"
Su Xiaoyan went all out and began to make a commemorative book for the celebration. Half a month later, let Xiaomei send the USB flash drive of the first draft of typesetting to Chen Juesen. When they came back, they said that they would come over tomorrow to revise it.
Su Xiaoyan's intuition was right, Fan Chengze and Chen Juesen came together. When he entered the door, Xiaomei was confused, and ran to Su Xiaoyan like clockwork and said, "So handsome, so handsome, so handsome." Su Xiaoyan patted Xiaomei and walked out of the office.
Fan Chengze was looking at her photography works on the wall, and hooked his hand at Su Xiaoyan, for fear that others would misunderstand, Su Xiaoyan could only walk over.
"This one is the same place as the one in my house, right?" Fan Chengze said it very lightly, but it left a big hole in Su Xiaoyan's heart.
"Hmm. Golden sand beach in K City. ”
"Because photographs can be washed out repeatedly, there is no uniqueness, so you don't have to cherish them. If you send it, you will send it, right? ”
Su Xiaoyan didn't answer, and followed him to see the photos on the wall.
In the conference room, Fan Chengze carefully read the first version and put forward a lot of revisions. Including the beauty of the typesetting and the size of the characters, there are very detailed requirements. Su Xiaoyan admires in his heart, he is worthy of being an architect, and he has high requirements for details. I remember that when he was looking at the construction drawings, he told the layman, don't underestimate the distance of 1 centimeter, sometimes it will be related to the safety of the whole building.
Thinking that Fan Chengze would leave after making a request, he actually said: "Can you work hard for you to work overtime and change the initial change." I'll stay and see. "The customer is God. The two staff members of the design nodded and immediately went out to get busy.
Chen Juesen went out to buy food, and Xiaomei hurriedly followed to help. All of a sudden, Su Xiaoyan and Fan Chengze were left in the conference room, and the discomfort immediately returned to Su Xiaoyan.
"Take a tour of your office." Fan Chengze got up and walked out of the conference room.
He walked around Su Xiaoyan's office slowly, picked up the photo on the table and looked at the photo of Su Xiaoyan and Xixi.
"Who filmed it?"
"Ke Hui."
"It's beautiful, it's taken."
"Thank you."
Fan Chengze sat on the sofa, and Su Xiaoyan poured him a glass of water. Then he asked about the studio, and as if he were chatting with a normal client, he didn't say a word.
"Is business good?"
"Honestly? If you don't take this order, you will have to post the money at the end of the year. ”
"Is that still so high?"
"You can't bend your waist for five buckets of rice, right?"
"I didn't let you sell yourself." Fan Chengze's evil appearance made Su Xiaoyan nervous the most. She got up and said, "I'm going to see what the designer has done." ”
"Okay. Can you show me the photos of the celebration? ”
"Yes." Su Xiaoyan stood and opened the text folder in the computer, Fan Chengze sat down uninvited, and began to click on the photo with great interest.
Su Xiaoyan stayed in the typesetting room for a while, and when he returned to the office, Fan Chengze had already sat back on the sofa and played with his mobile phone. Seeing her come in, she just glanced up, and there seemed to be a layer of frost on her face, which made Su Xiaoyan a little strange, and she didn't know how to start speaking. It just so happened that Xiaomei brought in a boxed lunch, breaking the awkward atmosphere. She asked: "Mr. Fan, it's time to eat, do you see if you want to eat here or go to the conference room to eat?" ”
"Here it is." Fan Chengze replied lightly.
Xiaomei hurriedly came to set it up, and Su Xiaoyan saw that although it was a boxed lunch, it was also extremely exquisite. Asked, "Where's the lunch box, it looks good?" ”
"Sister Su, why are you embarrassed to call it a box lunch. This is the dish that Assistant Chen specially ordered at Bihui, and then divided them one by one. Sister Su, do you know Bihui Garden? ”
Su Xiaoyan shook his head.
"The most exclusive private dish in the city. Last time, Mr. Pan was going to invite you to go, but you didn't have time to let me go back, what about that day, remember? Xiaomei said unabashedly.
Fan Chengze raised his eyebrows, did not speak, pulled over the stool, and began to eat.
Su Xiaoyan hurriedly stopped Xiaomei and said, "It really made Mr. Fan break the bank." Xiaomei, are you eating together here? ”
Xiaomei waved her hand and walked out: "No." Assistant Chen helped me get it outside. Then I'm out. ”
The room was quiet again. However, in the face of deliciousness, this silence is not very depressing. Su Xiaoyan has always been a person with a good appetite, and seeing that she had eaten all the beef first, Fan Chengze gave her the clip in his lunch box. Su Xiaoyan wanted to say thank you, but seeing that he bowed his head and said nothing, he swallowed his words back.
"I really miss tomato egg noodles." Fan Chengze didn't look up, and said something to himself.
"Oh." Su Xiaoyan responded, but couldn't think of what to say. The room was quiet again, and they did not speak again until they had finished eating.
Su Xiaoyan cleaned up, Fan Chengze sat back in the computer chair, and suddenly asked, "Are all the photos here?" ”
Su Xiaoyan didn't understand, so she came over and looked at Wen Jiàn's clip, and she came back to her senses. Just unpleasant because he didn't find an extra photo of himself? The celebration photos, Su Xiaoyan cleaned up once, in addition to the bad ones deleted, there are also ambiguous photos of Chen Xinran and Fan Chengguang, secretly taking photos of Fan Chengze, she has saved them in another text folder.
"I deleted some of the bad shots. It's all here. She said.
"Oh." Fan Chengze was slightly disappointed. "Let's go, let's go see the revised version." He stood up and walked out of the office. Su Xiaoyan followed behind, but his mood was disturbed by him, as if a feather was gently scratching on the heart, slightly numb, and he couldn't tell whether it was pleasure or entanglement.
It was busy until more than 8 o'clock that Fan Chengze and Chen Juesen went back. During this period, he looked at her without the slightest difference, and suddenly distanced himself. It's like, she's just the head of this studio.
"In a few days, I showed them the first print, and there was no problem, and it was ready to be completed. This list is over. Looking at the back of the leaving, Su Xiaoyan said.
Xiaomei was behind her and asked, "Sister Su, is this list good?" So isn't this fan always coming? Remember to let me send the first print. It's so eye-catching, it's good to take a few more looks. ”
"Xiaomei, girls have to be a little shameful." Su Xiaoyan patted Xiaomei's head.
"Sister Su, I think this Mr. Fan is still eating in the same room with you, are you quite familiar." Xiaomei's gossip nature has been exposed again.
Su Xiaoyan glared back with a look and said, "Then do you think such an eye-catching young man will fall in love with Sister Su and me?" ”
"Then who knows. You have a temperament except that we know that there is a Sissy, who doesn't look like a little girl. Xiaomei said sourly: "I see that Mr. Fan looks at you, full of appreciation." ”
Su Xiaoyan was no longer able to stick to Xiaomei's words. She shook her head and went home with her bag. When my car drove to the entrance of the community, the phone rang. "Park on the side of the road and I'll talk to you."
Su Xiaoyan opened the window and found that Fan Chengze's car was parked at the gate of the community, so he could only obediently park the car and walk out.
"Let's talk in my car."
"No, just say it here, right?"
"You're not worried about him seeing?"
"Who? Oh. It's okay. It's not something to be seen. ”
"Are we unsightly?"
As Fan Chengze approached, Su Xiaoyan panicked. A few days ago, she specially called her cousin Wang Boli to find out how much Fan Chengze knew about her. Wang Boli was embarrassed to say that he had drunk some wine at that time, and Fan Chengze might have seen her beautiful, so he was about to go to the phone. Su Xiaoyan heard that Wang Boli didn't say much about his situation, and Fan Chengze probably didn't know that he was divorced. Su Xiaoyan didn't want to make a fuss, and didn't want to clarify that he was divorced, so he took advantage of the situation to let Fan Chengze misunderstand. "How can you casually ruin someone else's marriage?"
"I don't want to hear your reasoning. Everything you say is a set. You take the feelings of men and women as a reason, are you tired? ”
"And what do you want?"
"You know, what I want."
Now Fan Chengze looks the same as when West West Africa asked for Barbie toys. She would ask the same question again after understanding her mother's reason for not buying it. Because she couldn't accept that result, she was unwilling.
"Fan Chengze, have you ever thought that you are like this, just because you are unwilling. Because you've never been rejected. ”
"So you don't have faith?"
"Yes, I'm not confident. You find a girl who can get married, and don't always come to a woman like me, okay? ”
"What kind of woman are you? 31 years old, divorced, with a daughter 4 years old. Fan Chengze said slowly, and then suddenly approached her, Su Xiaoyan jumped up in fright.
"Who sued you and me for divorce? Oh, it's Mei? Su Xiaoyan sighed depressedly. When Xiaomei and Chen Juesen went out to buy food, it is estimated that her current situation was clearly explained.
Under the light, Su Xiaoyan met Fan Chengze's playful eyes.
In the dark, the clear eyes of the two looked at each other silently, perhaps neither of them understood why fate would allow two people who could not be together to meet.
Perhaps behind all the unpromising choices, there will be unseen possibilities, unknowns that cannot be designed.
