Chapter 105: It's Cold
Lu Zhengnan walked up to me, gently held my cold hand, and gave me a look that I didn't have to be afraid of.
Entering the restaurant, the waiter asked if he had booked a place, and Ouyang Xue showed a card and reported the reserved location. The waiter glanced at the card, the smile on his face became sweeter, and politely led us up to a location on the third floor with a very good view, and then delivered the menu.
The four of them are very natural Zou Zichen and Ouyang Xue sat on the left, I sat on the right with Lu Zhengnan, and this time Ouyang Xue sat opposite me.
Everything seems to be harmonious.
The waiter quickly delivered the menu.
"Their steaks are all flown in from France, which is super popular." Ouyang Xue chatted with me casually, "It's hard to determine the location here, if I don't have a VIP card, I may not be able to make an appointment this morning." ”
"It's so troublesome to have a meal in Beijing, it seems that it's better for us to have Rongcheng." I pretended to be stupid.
Ouyang Xue's eyes flashed with disdain when she looked at me, "This is the capital, and that small place in Rongcheng can't be compared." ”
I shrugged my shoulders and was noncommittal.
"Order first," Zou Zichen pushed the menu to Ouyang Xue.
Since I sat down, I haven't looked at him again, for fear that my eyes will reveal the hidden emotions under my eyes.
"Little boy, what are you eating?" Lu Zhengnan also flipped through the menu in his hand, and came over to ask me, with tenderness and sweetness in his eyes.
I leaned over to study the menu with him, and the two of them were close together and fingers were intimate. Ouyang Xue's beautiful eyes swept across our faces, and then lowered her head to flip through the menu. I don't know Zou Zichen's look.
"I want a seven-part cooked steak with black peppers, a small salad, and a serving of caviar." I gave the name of the dish to the handsome waiter next to me.
Lu Zhengnan closed the menu and said with a smile: "Mine is the same as her, but the steak is medium-rare." ”
I sat upright and felt a cold light cast diagonally across the side, and I ignored it, still smiling a little in my eyes.
Soon Ouyang Xue also ordered the dishes and asked for a bottle of red wine with a very good vintage.
As soon as the waiter left, Ouyang Xue asked, "When did you come to Beijing, Xiaotong, and Zhengnan did a really good job of keeping secrets?"
"What kind of secrecy do I have?" Lu Zhengnan smiled.
"I also said no, my girlfriend came and there was no news at all, and I still worked on time every day and didn't take the children out for a walk."
Ouyang Xue seemed to be crying out for me, but her words were all temptations.
Lu Zhengnan took my hand, raised his eyebrows at Zou Zichen, and chuckled, "Mr. Zou won't let anyone go." ”
When Ouyang Xue heard this, she patted Zou Zichen sideways, and said with a smile: "Why are you the boss so blind, your girlfriend comes all the way to come and don't take a vacation." ”
Zou Zichen's face was always indifferent, and he hooked his lips lightly, "People have no opinions, you have such a big opinion." ”
Ouyang Xue glanced at him charmingly, covered his hand with a jade hand, and said with a coquettish smile: "You boss doesn't understand anything about sympathetic employees." ”
Zou Zichen turned his hand and held Ouyang Xue's hand, and said softly: "Recently, the project in Yizhuang is in a hurry, there is no way, Lu is always the boss of the design department, and the entire design department is working overtime every day, so what do the people under him think of him on vacation." ”
After Ouyang Xue heard this, she shrugged her shoulders towards Lu Zhengnan, as if to say, I can't do you anymore, with a charming smile on her face.
"By the way, Mr. Zou, I just have something to tell you," Lu Zhengnan's face was straight, as if he had seized the opportunity, "When this project is completed, I may have to leave Hengyuan." ”
"Why?" Ouyang Xue's reaction was even more excited than Zou Zichen's.
Lu Zhengnan's face was indifferent, "Well, a friend from abroad asked me to be a partner, and I was very interested in his proposal, so I agreed." After a pause, "It doesn't matter if I'm gone, I can still cooperate with Hengyuan." ”
Zou Zichen glanced at Lu Zhengnan fixedly, and replied happily: "Okay, I have no opinion." ”
I don't know if it was because the news released by Lu Zhengnan diverted Ouyang Xue's attention, but during the meal, he didn't ask me anything, just talked about some irrelevant topics. It wasn't until she finished the meal that she casually asked, "Xiaotong, why can't you get through on the phone?" ”
I took a sip of red wine and looked at me in surprise, "No way," I took out my phone and chuckled, "Uh...... The battery is out, and I forgot to charge the electricity while playing the mobile game last night. ”
"Then how did you just get in touch?" Ouyang Xue wiped the corners of her mouth lightly, and looked at me and Lu Zhengnan suspiciously.
Lu Zhengnan smiled casually: "I went home to pick her up." ”
"Oh," Ouyang Xue glanced at us meaninglessly.
Coming out of the restaurant.
Lu Zhengnan took my hand and begged Zou Zichen: "Mr. Zou, can I take half a day off." ”
Zou Zichen's eyes were secretive, swept over the hands I and Lu Zhengnan were clasping, and the corners of his mouth raised a very beautiful arc, "Okay," the voice fell, and he hugged Ouyang Xue and got into the car first.
"Little boy, then let's go first." Ouyang Xue poked her head out of the car and waved at us.
I looked at the car in the distance, and my heart sank and sank.
Zou Zichen: He didn't even look back.
"Which hotel are you staying in?" Lu Zhengnan shook my hand lightly.
I withdrew my hand, the mask on my face could no longer be maintained, I lowered my eyes lonely, and reluctantly pulled the corners of my mouth, "Zhengnan, thank you." ”
Lu Zhengnan looked at me with bottomless eyes and sighed lightly, "I really don't want to see you in such a situation." ”
I looked up at the sky, and at the same time forced the fog back from under my eyes.
"It's nothing to me." I smiled sourly.
Lu Zhengnan stepped forward, hugged me gently, patted me on the back, and said softly: "Now that I have time, where do you want to go, I'll take you around." ”
"I'm a little tired, you can take me back to the hotel." I was depressed.
Lu Zhengnan sighed lightly, "Okay." ”
When I got in the car, I looked out the window, thinking about Zou Zichen's tone when he called me to come to Beijing several times, I don't know why, I always felt that he had already thought of today's situation.
So what did he call me to Beijing for? Do you really miss me, or do you want to embarrass me?
I was frightened by my own conjectures, my face turned pale, and my chest tightened and I was short of breath.
"Are you alright?" Lu Zhengnan glanced at me worriedly.
"It's okay," I reluctantly gave him a smile.
The car drove for more than half an hour and returned to the hotel.
When I was about to get out of the car, Lu Zhengnan grabbed my hand, his face was a little solemn, "Or, move to my place, in case ......"
"If Ouyang Xue really doubts me, she will be suspicious if I hide there. Don't worry, I'm fine. I patted his hand.
Lu Zhengnan frowned, "Then you have something to call me." ”
"Well, you go back and drive slower." With that, I got out of the car.
Back in my room, I seemed to have exhausted my last bit of strength, slumped in the doorway, tears pouring out of my eyes.
Therefore, the grievances and shame poured into my heart like a tide, and I couldn't control it.
I sat on the floor for a long time, but finally I got up, went into the bedroom, threw my bag on the bed, walked to the wine cabinet, grabbed a bottle of wine, and went into the bathroom.
I buried myself in the bathtub, opened the whiskey in my hand, and drank it in a big gulp, the strong and spicy liquid poured into my throat, my burning throat was hot and painful, and my frozen heart finally had a little temperature.
Half a bottle of wine down, I started to feel a little dizzy and my eyelids became heavy.
This feeling is so good, dizzy, limp, you don't have to think about anything, you just close your eyes and you can sleep.
So I closed my eyes and let myself fall asleep like that.
In my sleep, I felt that my surroundings were extremely cold, as if I was in an ice cellar, and even the blood in my body was frozen a little bit.
"Tongtong, wake up, don't sleep."
I felt like I heard my mother's voice.
"Tong Tong is good, listen to my mother, get up quickly."
It's really my mother, I propped up my eyelids and saw my mother standing in a circle of light, "Mom, is it really you?" ”
"Tong Tong, it's a mother."
"Mom, I miss you so much." I stretched out my hand to hug her, but it was empty.
"Mom misses you too, but Tongtong, you are still young, and the road ahead is still very long, although the road ahead is a bit bumpy, but Mom believes that you will be happy, so Tongtong, don't give up any hope."
"But Mom, I'm really tired, I don't want to be so tired, I want to stay by your side."
"Tong Tong, mom will always be by your side."
Suddenly, the figure in the aperture became more and more blurred.
"Mom, don't go." I waved my hands in the air trying to grab her, but I couldn't catch her.
"Mom," I screamed, waking up from my dream.
The water in the bathtub was already cold, and my whole body shivered involuntarily, with only one feeling, it was so cold.
I staggered out of the tub, put on my bathrobe, and tightened my belt, but my whole body was still shivering. He hastily wiped his long hair, walked out of the bathroom with his shoulders crossed, and got into the bed, wrapping himself in airtight.
After a long time, the coldness on his body gradually subsided.
Outside the window, it's already dusk.
I reached out from the covers, pulled my phone out of my bag, and turned it on. No phone calls, no text messages, nothing.
My heart hurt uncontrollably.
It seems that my guess was correct, but why did he do this to me? I have been humbled to be his plaything, why should he do this to me. Where the hell have I sinned against him, and he wants to torture me like this.
The phone rang suddenly.
I instantly had a glimmer of hope, but when I saw the number, my chest couldn't help but rise and fall violently, and I picked it up with my grip on my phone.
"Cold, hum, what a disgusting name...... Why don't you hang up on me. Ouyang Xue's voice was sneering.
"You think if you don't speak, I don't know who you are."
Her tone was so contemptuous that I felt like I wasn't even an ant, and she could trample me to death at any time if she wanted to.
Ouyang Xue sneered over there, and said leisurely: "Lin Tong, how long will you play the play?" ”
