Continued: Leaving with you
Lunch time is a time of rest for office workers, in this high-end office building dense area, the Hong Kong-style tea restaurant across the road is very good at noon, is a place where white-collar workers often come, if you don't come to the queue early, you can only wait until the afternoon to eat.
In the hall, by the window, sat a man with clear eyebrows and a clean and elegant temperament, looking at the door from time to time, obviously waiting for someone. When he saw a familiar figure appear, his dark eyes suddenly had a strange look.
Lan Zhixin sat down opposite him and said with emotion: "Fortunately, Nike, you have time to rank......
This kind of person is Nike, he heard Lan Zhixin say that he likes to eat things in this tea restaurant, and he came to wait in line early today. Yesterday at his house, he couldn't have a smooth meal with Lan Zhixin, and today is a small compensation.
"It's close to your company, so you can eat slowly. Hurry up and eat. Nike's gentle eyes are like looking at his girlfriend-to-be, like a warm spring breeze, which makes people feel very comfortable.
Lan Zhixin smiled slightly, knowing in her heart that the reason why Nike chose to eat here was probably because she knew that she liked it. This man, although he grew up in Hong Kong, studied abroad, and is still a stylist at the forefront of the fashion industry, he himself is not exaggerated at all, very sincere, always silently remembering all kinds of little things about her, and then giving her thoughtfulness and surprises.
Eating delicious food and chatting happily with Nike, Lan Zhixin's anxious mood for a morning was temporarily relieved and a lot more relaxed. Actually, she should be grateful to Nike, if it weren't for Nike's saying that he invited her to eat here at noon today, maybe she would have eaten in the company cafeteria, and then waited anxiously for Asa to show up......
Having someone to chat with you when you're bored is a good way to regulate your emotions, and Nike is a good listener, with no pressure to be with him, and easily infected by his warm smile.
During the chat, Nike did not ignore his concern for Lan Zhixin. A delicate shrimp dumpling was sandwiched into her bowl, and a soft voice asked, "Yesterday you left without even eating, is there something urgent?" It should be fine now, and if you need help, don't be polite to me. ”
When Lan Zhixin heard this, she felt a little more sorry in her heart......
"Thank you, Nike...... I'm sorry that the matter has been taken care of, but I didn't get to taste your craft yesterday when you cooked it yourself......"
"It doesn't matter, there will be opportunities in the future, just tell me what you want to eat, I've been learning to cook local food recently."
"Are you interested in cooking?"
"It's okay, sometimes cooking at home is also quite fulfilling, if someone eats together, it will be better, otherwise one person cooks and eats alone, no matter how good the delicacy is, there is less fun to share." Nike looked at Lan Zhixin with deep meaning, and the affection in his eyes was warm.
Of course Lan Zhixin knows what Nike means, the topic that the two talked about yesterday is already obvious, if she hadn't suddenly received a call to leave, maybe she would have agreed to be Nike's girlfriend.
The human mind is sometimes wonderful, and the environment and atmosphere are very important when making decisions. When Lan Zhixin confessed to Nike yesterday that she had a child, she was really moved by Nike's reasonableness and his sincere affection, so she almost said "Let's be together" at that time.
But at this moment, Lan Zhixin couldn't speak...... The most important thing for her now is to leave the city temporarily with Yan Yan, and as for how long she will be gone, she doesn't have an accurate answer. It may be half a month or a month, or it may be a few months or even half a year or even half a year...... In this case, it is not appropriate to promise Nike, and it is very unfair to him.
Lan Zhixin put down her chopsticks, her clear eyes showed a faint reluctance, her hand covered Nike's big hand, and she lowered her voice and said apologetically: "Nike...... To tell you the truth, I am very grateful for your understanding and tolerance of me. You are a good man who is very worthy of being cherished by women, and it is my blessing to be liked by you. But I have to tell you that for some special reasons, I decided to take a long leave from the company and take my children to live in other places for a while. I don't know when I'll be back yet......"
Nike's face changed, and he clearly felt his heart twitch, and the hand that was being caressed by Lan Zhixin also shook involuntarily, as if he had been electrocuted.
"You're leaving?" Nike's smile turned into a wry smile, and there was heartache between his brows. Seeing that he and Lan Zhixin have a little hope to be together, but what happened? Why did she say she was leaving for a while after only one day?
Although she is not gone forever, she is not sure when she will come back, and when will the next time we meet?
Deeply surprised, and at the same time reluctant, Nike has always been very calm, but now it can't help but show a little worry and nervousness.
"Zhixin, do you have to leave? Is there something going on that you can't solve? Isn't there anyone who can help you? You still have friends, Shui Han and Yan Shao, and I ......" Nike looked a little anxious, he really hoped that Lan Zhixin could confess more, but she seemed to have some secrets that were inconvenient to tell.
Lan Zhixin also sighed faintly, and there was a touch of sourness in her heart...... Some things are indeed too tricky, even Shui Han and Yan Shao are difficult to help. After all, Yan Yan's existence is related to the royal family of a country, and it is not easy to protect it from a private side? Thinking of that He Shuxian, Lan Zhixin felt that it was difficult to sleep and eat, and the sense of crisis became stronger and stronger, so she had to take Yan Yan away from her.
“nike…… I'm sorry that I can't disclose it for the time being. There are some things that you know but are a mental burden, it's not that I don't trust you. Lan Zhixin's words were very direct, but they were telling the truth.
Nike's distress intensified again, and he held Lan Zhixin's hand with his backhand and looked at her with pity. Since she had a hard time, he couldn't force her to say it. Perhaps his understanding was the best help for her.
But if Nike just lets Lan Zhixin go, he will look too cowardly, that's not his style.
"Zhixin, I also agree with your idea, if we split the two places as soon as we get along, it will be very detrimental to each other's emotional investment, but what if I am willing to go with you? Will you still push me away? Nike's affectionate gaze is like hot spring water in the winter moon, tightly wrapping Lan Zhixin's chaotic heart.
Lan Zhixin was stunned, and was speechless for a while. She didn't expect Nike to say that, and it seems that she underestimated Nike's affection and determination for her.
After a few seconds of chaos, Lan Zhixin's reason still prevailed, and she didn't get dizzy because of this.
Lan Zhixin shook her head slightly: "Nike, you have such a good job here, it would be a pity if you gave up." I can't hurt you...... No, it doesn't. ”
Nike seemed to have expected Lan Zhixin to say this, and the look in his eyes lit up again, and he held her hand tighter: "Do you think that my job as a stylist is my only source of income?" Think if I don't work, I won't have any income? Zhixin, are you too worried...... My family also has a small business in Hong Kong, and my family knows that I like to engage in styling design, and they will not ask me to go back to inherit the family business for the time being, but I and my brothers and sisters have shares, and we will have our own dividends every year. So even if I quit my job as a stylist, I won't run out of money, and you don't have to worry about me. ”
"But...... You ......" Lan Zhixin didn't know what to say, she knew that Nike's family was good, but a man gave up the job he had just done in order to be with her, which would make her feel a lot of pressure.
"Zhixin, I have the same feelings as I do with work. As long as I like it, I will do my best to pursue it and strive for it. I won't sit stupidly and wait for anything, for me, I don't have to work here, I came to C City because of Yan Shao's invitation. But if I tell him I'm going to be away for a while, he'll understand me. Zhixin, don't worry about anything, we are not young, don't waste time every day, we should be positive, no matter where we go, as long as we can be together, have a happy life, what if we are not in C City, we will not be hungry anywhere, with me, you don't have to go out to work, just take care of the children at home, I will give you the ...... at home" Nike's seemingly gentle tone, but it has a particularly determined meaning, his confidence and determination, people have to be moved.
He thought far ahead, and he was also very realistic, and he also took Lan Zhixin's children into account. This is a practical, lifeable man.
What Nike said had a big impact on Lan Zhixin's psychology...... The man in front of her is something she can have and grasp, unlike Asa who seems to live in the clouds forever, and she is two worlds that are out of reach.
All a woman wants is peace of mind and warmth. And Nike is the man who can give her peace of mind and warmth.
Lan Zhixin was a little shaken, her reason told her that Nike was a rare and suitable marriage partner, and if she missed it, she might not meet it again in this life.
Who doesn't want to have a home, Lan Zhixin has worked hard for so many years, and she is already exhausted. She had a feeling that if she rejected Nike's affection again, she might not have the opportunity to get this happiness at her fingertips in the future.
After Lan Zhixin's consideration, she made a compromise decision. It's up to her to leave with the baby first, and then notify Nike after settling down, instead of the two of them leaving together...... [and updates]
