Tang Qingyou finally reached a gentleman's agreement with Tu Yiran, giving each other a year to go their separate ways, and if they still have feelings for each other after a year, they will get back together.

In fact, Tu Yiran faintly felt in his heart that this was her strategy to delay the army, but he also knew that once Tang Qingyou made a stubborn mistake, he would not be able to pull back the nine cows, and now he could make her slow down the pace of leaving, which was already in the direction he expected. The lesser of two evils, he should go. Anyway, the investment is still divided into long and short term, he feels that he has at least pulled the passive situation back into the stalemate space now, and the rest is just a step by step erosion, and he will be able to get back the initiative sooner or later - in Tu Yiran's world, there is a big war from time to time, and now it is an unprecedented war and chaos, but he is always a general on horseback, and he will not become a refugee who is eaten by mermaids. As Tang Qingyou said, he can't stop.

Tu Yiran also had a little secret joy in his heart. Tang Qingyou knew him so well, but he never realized that the occasional weakness in his words was just to stabilize her. This was true of business in the past, and it is also true of feelings today. Thinking of this, he was calculating and being moved by Tang Qingyou on the other hand - this is a trust and love that only he can perceive, and it is also an unknown pure land in his heart, and he does not intend to share it with anyone.

This night is the most relaxed relationship between the two since they broke up, and it can even be said to be the most relaxed in recent years. Like the relatives of any family in the city with lights on, eat, chat, and watch the Spring Festival Gala.

Of course, at this point in time, there is indeed no choice but the Spring Festival Gala. But when the Spring Festival Gala reached 23, with the explosion of related topics on the Internet, Tang Qingyou was instantly upset.

is not a routine complaining every year, but because I saw a familiar face on the screen of the Spring Festival Gala - Zhang Meng.

It is normal for Zhang Meng to go to the Spring Festival Gala, and he is an art celebrity. The problem is, the yellow-green light is also on - it is normal for the yellow-green light to be on the Spring Festival Gala, and people are big names! However, these two people are actually in the same show! They work together! Zhang Meng stopped playing Western classical music, and directly came up to defend the Yellow River, and Huang Luguang led a group of stars to perform this ancient and modern version of the Yellow River chorus as the lead singer. That picture is really ...... Don't be too pretty. Netizens across the country were all fried for a while.

The wind is roaring, the horses are howling, and the Yellow River is roaring...... On the screen and on the stage, Zhang Meng's yellow and green light cooperate seamlessly, the spark of art can be described as passionate, and the members of the star chorus work hard to cooperate, and the vocalization of each tone is a comprehensive effect of remarkable force and beauty.

However, the emotions on the picture are far less than the galloping of thousands of horses in Tang Qingyou's heart.

Before she even had time to speculate on the reaction of the media reporters, her phone was already tickling frequently. Accompanied by New Year's greetings from all walks of life, there were several questions starting with "hehe" and "haha": Didn't they say that they were not on the same stage? Didn't you say that Zhang Meng couldn't mention the yellow and green light in front of him?

……

She thought about it for three minutes, and the last text message was sent to all the reporters who greeted her: "Hehe, isn't it a big surprise?" For the best effect of the Spring Festival Gala and for the common joy of the people of the whole country, thank you for your active cooperation and hard work! ”

Tu Yiran didn't know what she was worried about when she suddenly turned gloomy, so she opened her mouth and left her for the night, Tang Qingyou's sharp eyes swept over like a heavy machine gun, and sternly refused.

Tu Yiran couldn't help but smile when he saw Tang Qingyou's anti-thief expression. He thought to himself that the future would be long, as long as she didn't run away, what if she slowly figured it out? So, he willingly went to the garage and picked up a light car to take her back to the apartment.

Tang Qingyou slept in his apartment until noon on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and was woken up by the phone call of Zhou Zhi and Weiwei. She cut the channel with sleepy eyes and communicated with the two, Weiwei gossiped about Zhang Meng's yellow and green light, Zhou Zhi worshiped the New Year wholeheartedly, she returned the same, and finally heard her stomach scream, and suddenly remembered that the family was out of food, and said: "I don't even have a rotten vegetable leaf at home now, you invited the first meal of the year." "One didn't get distracted, and I mentioned it twice. The final result was that Weiwei came to pick her up, and the two went to Zhou Zhi's house to eat hot pot together.

Zhou Zhi lived with his parents, but the old man and the old lady traveled abroad in a fashionable way, threw away the dog and Zhou Zhi stayed at home, and left a refrigerator of frozen ingredients for feeding, which can be said to be thoughtful. But with Zhou Gongzi's extensive travel, there are not many opportunities to eat at home alone, and the arrival of Tang Qingyou and Wei Wei finally gave him the opportunity to cook - a request from Tang Qingyou.

If it weren't for Tang Qingyou's introduction, Wei Wei wouldn't have believed that this Zhou Gongzi, who looked like an embroidered pillow and always posed as a game world, was actually a "show outside the wisdom" existence. Although the servants ate hot pot, he was stunned to make several side dishes, and even the two ladies asked for the mandarin duck pot by name, and he took charge of the two sets of pollution-free green versions of the pot base, which tasted very good.

Wei Wei had to smack her tongue: "I didn't expect Zhou Gongzi to be so powerful, he can go up to the hall and down to the kitchen." ”

"Look, you're finally clumsy, aren't you?" Tang Qingyou has the meaning of Wang Po selling melons, "How about it, this is definitely a big leak of high-quality products, do you want to accept it?" ”

Wei Wei glanced at Zhou Zhi, who was smiling from beginning to end, and didn't know whether she had a heart or not, and said: "My temple is small, I'm afraid I can't afford such a big immortal." ”

"Please rest assured about this," Zhou Zhi replied before Tang Qingyou, smiling sheepishly, "Our old Zhou family has been passed down for several generations, and I won't be involved." ”

Wei Wei had just changed her opinion of him, and was repelled by his lack of shape, and the rest of the time was really just eating hot pot. Tang Qingyou's attempt to be a matchmaker failed again, and he couldn't understand that these two people were both talented and beautiful, so why couldn't they get together a frequency to have a good chat? But the facts in front of her were so obvious, she had to try her best to adjust the atmosphere, and watched Weiwei eat happily throughout the whole process, wipe her mouth and leave after eating.

Tang Qingyou didn't go with Weiwei in the end, but stayed alone and had a secret conversation with Zhou Zhi in the study.

Conversations between smart people are sometimes much simpler than those of rough people, unabashed, and to the point. Both of them guessed each other's intentions, and Zhou Zhi didn't do any foreshadowing, and asked Tang Qingyou when he opened his mouth: "Yolanda, you tell me the truth, did you break up with Boss Tu and deliberately acted for everyone to see?" ”

As long as Zhou Zhi doesn't call Sister You, and Zheng'er Bajing calls her English name, Tang Qingyou will be inexplicably nervous, and this time is no exception. She tensed a nerve, and she had no ability to think at all: "What? ”

Zhou Zhi only smiled lightly: "The queen of drama really lives up to her name." has not been on stage for many years, but his acting skills are still so good. ”

Tang Qingyou's face changed slightly: "What the hell are you talking about?" ”

Zhou Zhi smiled and continued to analyze unhurriedly: "My good sister, don't hide it from me." You already knew that the two founders of Bo Yi were going to split up, so with Boss Tu's acting, you withdraw first, and he and Lao Shen can spread out and negotiate, right? The analysis seems to be quite in place, after all, Shen Bo did not place any nepotism in Bo Yi Investment and its institutions, and Tang Qingyou's existence has become Tu Yiran's biggest weakness.

However, only the person concerned knows what is going on, and she can only smile bitterly back: "Your imagination is too rich." ”

The smile on Zhou Zhi's face slowly retracted, and there was a confidence in his eyes: "I know you won't admit it." ”

Tang Qingyou didn't want to waste his tongue on this issue, so he drew his attention back to the direction of his attention: "Okay, even if I admit it, so what? It doesn't matter, it's the result that matters. You ask me about the process, and I want you to turn it out. I ask you - what are you going to choose? ”

Zhou Zhi probably didn't expect Tang Qingyou to be so anxious and so abrupt to ask this question about his future, and even about his entire life pattern. He was silent.

As a result, Tang Qingyou's projected gaze rose directly to the level of X-ray rays. Under the pressure of her gaze, Zhou Zhi's eyes wandered unconsciously and dodged.

Tang Qingyou looked at him unhurriedly, with a look of "I know".

Zhou Zhi is like a hero who has been arrested and put into the torture room, no matter how much fear and uncertainty he has in his heart, he must maintain the integrity of Mount Tai collapsing forward and not moving.

In the atmosphere of stalemate, it is up to us who will break the gong first. But Tang Qingyou looked at Zhou Zhi, who refused to speak, and suddenly understood, and said meaningfully: "Zhou Zhi, you are a delicate egoist. In this process of separation, where no party has an absolute chance of winning, according to secular standards, he should choose to continue to follow Tu Yiran, there is no need to hesitate at all, let alone be so unspeakable.

Zhou Zhi's expression was easily poked into a hole, and after a long time, he organized the language and said: "Have you listened to the stories of those entrepreneurs and listened too much, dizzy?" Stories are just stories, and the premise of altruism is always self-interest. For the common prosperity of socialism, some people must be allowed to get rich first! ”

Tang Qing sneered: "Telling stories and reasoning, this is my specialty, so you should also know that you can't convince me." ”

Zhou Zhi thought for a while and asked, "Then are you here to convince me today?" ”

"I didn't make a draft." Tang Qingyou shook his head, "I don't want to reason with you anymore." Why don't I tell you a story too? ”

Zhou Zhi made a gesture of "please".

Tang Qingyou thought for a moment and said: "There was once a Soviet joke that said that there were three prisoners in the cell, and they chatted nonsense about their respective reasons for going to prison, and the first person said that I was against Petrov. The second person said that I was because I supported Petrov. At this time, the third person looked at these two people meaningfully and said with mixed feelings, I am Petrov. ”

Zhou Zhi's solemn expression began to ease here, and he finally confirmed that he still had a little weight in Tang Qingyou's mind, because first of all, she was caring about him. But looking back and thinking about it carefully, he felt lonely again. She did not directly persuade him to stand in Tu Yiran's camp, but kindly reminded him that under the current situation, no matter how he stood in line, the chance of bad luck in the end was almost the same. And it is precisely this posture of holding the scales, as if asking Zhou Zhi in a roundabout way: Since the probability of bad luck is about the same, why do you make a choice that more people don't understand?

At this time, Tang Qingyou didn't know what his future would look like, and he wasn't sure if there would be Tu Yiran in his future world. But she subconsciously stood in his queue.

Zhou Zhi finally said: "You are also working now, I don't care if you really go on another path from now on, or just want to experience life, I will treat you as a self-made member of the city." If one day, you find that you are loyal to your duty or even give everything you have, and in the end you are just a tool to support your own people in the eyes of your boss, you will understand why some people in this world live like backgammon on the chessboard, while others can stand on the tip of the knife and dance. Many times, choice is much more important than effort. ”

It turned out that she felt that in the past five years, she was using Zhou Zhi as a statue, but in Zhou Zhi's opinion, he was playing with her and coaxing her. So, what exactly is her effort? Even what is she as a person?

Tang Qingyou didn't let Zhou Zhi send her home in the end. She took a taxi by herself, silently all the way.

The city on the first day of the first lunar month was already deserted, and she pulled the zipper of her down jacket to her chin, but she still felt the unprecedented chill of this winter.

This Spring Festival, she seems to have picked up a trouble and lost a friend.
