The whole book.,The fastest update I want to accompany you day and night with the latest chapter!
Chen Xun drove her to her cousin's house, Ning Chaoxi thanked him and got out of the car, she didn't hear any movement behind her, because she was worried about Shen Xi and Dudu in the hospital, she didn't care too much, she took the elevator upstairs, went to the kitchen to wash rice and cook porridge, and by the way, made two side dishes with the remaining ingredients in the refrigerator, put them in the thermos, and then picked up the key and went downstairs.
As soon as she left the door of the community, she heard two whistles of 'beep', and then saw Chen Xun's Maserati still parked at the door.
"Why haven't you left yet?" Ning Chaoxi was slightly stunned, and after the car window was lowered, half of his handsome side face appeared.
"Get in the car, I'll send you." It's still a concise statement.
It's not easy to take a taxi here at night, so Ning Chaoxi didn't pretend to him, and went around to the co-pilot to open the car door.
"To the People's Hospital?" After getting in the car, Chen Xun asked her.
"Hmm." Ning Chaoxi turned his eyes to look at him, it turned out that he had heard, "I'm sorry for you." ”
Chen Xun looked straight ahead, took the time to look at the thermos flask she was holding in her hand, and asked casually, "Do you know how to cook?" ”
"Well, I was forced to learn by my cousin." Ning Chaoxi bent his eyebrows, pursed his lips and smiled: "I am not good at cooking, and I can only cook some very simple home-cooked dishes." ”
"That's enough." He said.
Ning Chaoxi didn't understand what he meant by this, but she didn't ask, she didn't encounter many traffic lights on the way to the hospital, the road was unimpeded, and she arrived soon.
Before getting out of the car, Chen Xun said to her: "I have something to leave for a few days, and I will come back to you." ”
Ning Chaoxi was about to open the door, when she heard the sound, her movements paused, the emotions in her heart surged, and she heard herself answer: "...... Good. ”
Chen Xun's gaze followed the slender figure until she disappeared at the entrance of the hospital.
Ning Chaoxi went to the hospital hall to call Shen Xi, and found where they were according to her instructions, she accompanied Dudu to get the hanging injection in the injection department, and when she arrived, the hanging bottle was already half hung up, she took Dudu from Shen Xi's lap and handed over the porridge and vegetables in the thermos flask: "Sister, you eat, I'll feed Dudu." ”
"Auntie......" Dudu was excited when she saw her, and fluttered on her body with her little short legs, Ning Chaoxi hurriedly stepped forward and pressed the little arm that was hanging with the needle to prevent him from moving.
Shen Xi slapped the bear child's buttocks: "Little ancestor, you are trying to scare me to death." ”
Doodoo giggled.
Ning Chaoxi was amused by his heartless appearance, and made a grimace at him, Dudu was even happier, his little arms swayed more energetically, Shen Xi glared at her, Ning Chaoxi smiled, stopped making trouble, picked up the spoon and fed Dudu porridge in small sips.
"How about going on a blind date today?" Shen Xi asked her while eating the porridge in the thermos.
Ning Chaoxi was coaxing the child in his arms to drink porridge, and when he heard the voice, he replied: "It's okay." ”
"This is okay, does it mean that there is room for development?" Shen Xi raised his eyebrows and asked her.
Ning Chaoxi didn't speak, lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time, and said, "Sister, I met him." ”
"Whom did you meet?" Shen Xi paused for a moment and didn't react, then looked at her in astonishment, "You mean Chen Xun?" The guy you've been thinking about for eight years? ”
"Well, that's him."
"Wow, it won't be so coincidental, you finally made up your mind to go on a blind date today and met him? Where did you encounter it? Shen Xi's eyes widened in surprise.
Ning Chaoxi told Shen Xi what happened, Shen Xi squinted his eyes at her, and mocked: "So, he came back to rekindle his old relationship with you?" Or does he want to show you off the capital he has now? She has not had a good impression of this man who has hurt her sister for so long since a long time ago, and although she has not met yet, she does not want to see this person from the bottom of her heart, so her words are a little bitter.
Ning Chaoxi couldn't hear this, she frowned: "Sister, don't say that, Chen Xun is not such a person." ”
Shen Xi looked at her and said, "Oh? Then let me ask you, did he propose to get back together with you? ”
Ning Chaoxi pursed her lips and was silent.
"Oh, no." Shen Xi sneered: "I'll tell you Ning Chaoxi, don't be stupid, men are all the same." ”
Ning Chaoxi was silent, she knew that her cousin was so negative because of her previous boyfriend, when she took the college entrance examination, Shen Xi was going to marry her boyfriend, but the family didn't agree and kept dragging it out, and when she was about to graduate from her senior year, her aunt saw that they had been working hard in society for so long and had achieved nothing, so she ordered Shen Xi to separate from her boyfriend, and her boyfriend, who had been talking for six years, couldn't bear such pressure and proposed to break up with her, and Shen Xi also found out at that time that he had been outside with other women.
Unfortunately, she was pregnant with Dudu at that time, and she originally wanted to kill this untimely child, but then she gave birth to it and raised it alone.
"Sister, you can't kill a boatload of people with a rod." Ning Chaoxi muttered quietly.
Shen Xi knew what she was referring to, and immediately fell silent.
The issue broke up unhappily, and neither of them mentioned it again.
In the next few days, He Dongyang called her a few times, but she was pushed away by Ning Chaoxi under the pretext of something, she has been waiting for Chen Xun to contact her these days, but the mobile phone has not moved, she is lying in bed at night, the mobile phone is placed next to her, and she picks it up when she hears the movement, but it is not his message.
On the third day after he left, Ning Chaoxi went to the gallery he opened in the creative park, the plaque outside the door was pure wood, she saw two words written on it, 'seeking', which was the name of this gallery, she walked in, the painting she saw last time was still there, in the center of the hall, she was still attracted by this painting at first sight.
No one knows the reason better than her, she thought, because this is Chen Xun's painting.
I didn't have time to see the price last time, but this time she walked over deliberately, and she was a little surprised when she saw the price, this painting will sell for 600,000 yuan!
So expensive......
I thought I could buy it because it wasn't expensive, but I didn't expect it...... Even if all her savings were not enough to buy one-sixth of the painting.
She was immersed in astonishment when she heard the sound of high heels 'clicking' behind her, and when she looked back, she saw a tall and slender woman in a camel-colored woolen coat walking towards her, and the long boots on her feet stepped on the floor and made a calm and elegant sound.
It was the woman who stood next to Chen Xun last time.
"Sister Zhou Xin, you're here again." When the staff in the gallery saw her, they cordially stepped forward to say hello.
Zhou Xin took off the sunglasses on her face and pinned them to the collar of her coat, she seemed to be a frequent visitor here, and she was very familiar with the employees, she smiled kindly at the round-faced girl: "Orange." ”
After saying hello, the boots under her feet turned and walked in the direction of the staircase: "Tangerine, I dropped something here a few days ago, go up and take a look." ”
Ning Chaoxi saw her walking up the stairs, the sound of her boots stepping on the wooden floor was hollow and harsh, she subconsciously took a few steps in that direction, and was stopped by the employee called Orange: "Miss, I'm sorry, this is the office area, and our boss doesn't let outsiders step in." ”
Alien......
Ning Chaoxi looked up at the corner of the coat that disappeared at the staircase, and muttered: "Then she ......" She closed her lips, her eyes a little dim.
She couldn't afford the paintings here, the only thing she could afford was the drinks and snacks in the bar, she stood in front of the stage and looked up at the drinks marked on the light box above her head, ordered a glass of oolong milk cap, and the waiter at the bar asked her: "Miss, do you want to pack or drink here?" ”
"Pack, thanks." Ning Chaoxi said.
"Okay, please wait a minute."
While she was waiting, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the pair of boots coming to her side, and the waiters at the bar stopped what they were doing and called out cordially: "Sister Zhou Xin." ”
Someone laughed and joked to her: "Sister Zhou Xin, it's not the right time for you to come today, Brother Chen has been out of town these days and is not here." ”
"I know, he went to my grandfather." Zhou Xin said casually, walked to Ning Chaoxi's side, and looked down at the desserts in the glass cabinet.
"Sister Zhou Xin, is it still the same?" Someone asked her.
"Well, another mango pancake." Zhou Xin pointed to the desserts in the glass cabinet, smiled and winked at the man: "The account is on your brother Chen's head." ”
Ning Chaoxi listened to their conversation, lowered his head and pinched his cold palm, feeling that his heart was as sour as if he had soaked in lemon juice.
Zhou Xin walked back to the hall after ordering, Ning Chaoxi saw her stop in front of Chen Xun's painting, her eyes were gentle, and she said with a smile on the corner of her lips: "Tangerine, help me wrap this painting." ”
"Good Ratcha." Tangerine nodded and joked: "Sister Zhou Xin, you are almost out of buying all the paintings that our Brother Chen Exhibition is here, does he know that you love him so much." ”
Someone at the bar immediately responded: "Brother Chen must know, he is just a little boring, and he doesn't like to talk, you don't know, two months ago, he worked hard upstairs for a month because Sister Zhou Xin said that he liked paintings with a sense of age. ”
"Hey...... Miss, Miss, don't you want your oolong milk cap? The bartender shouted in the direction of Ning Chaoxi's departure with the packaged drink, a little puzzled.
Ning Chaoxi left without looking back.
On a December day, the cold wind blowing in her face made her feel cold all over her body, Ning Chaoxi wrapped her red nose and mouth in a scarf, lowered her head and kicked the gravel at her feet, she passed by a shop, the window reflected her figure, she stopped, looked sideways at herself in the window, and suddenly remembered what Shen Xi often said to her - Ning Chaoxi, look at what you look like now.
Yes, what does she look like now, because a man touched her emotions and turned her into this appearance that even felt strange to herself.
She smiled when she looked at it, and patted her cheek, Ning Chaoxi, you are really good!
Isn't it just a man, what's the big deal, she took out her mobile phone and posted a message on the circle of friends: "Lonely, empty, cold, does anyone have an appointment?" ”
He Dongyang quickly replied to her: "I, do you want to make an appointment?" ”
Ning Chaoxi replied to him arrogantly: "About!" ”
