Chapter 109: Meet Tonight
But she didn't dare to guarantee it.
β¦β¦
As night fell, the lights came on, and Jiang Hanchen came out of the hospital and walked through the busiest streets in the city center, and finally stepped on the brakes at the door of the most famous western restaurant in the city.
He parked his car in the restaurant's open-air parking lot, and when he opened the glass door, the wind chimes hanging at the door jingled, which was very interesting.
There wasn't much in the restaurant, that's for sure, because he's already booked.
"Help me choose a seat that I can see at a glance." Commanding the manager straightforwardly, Jiang Hanchen raised his hand to straighten his tie, he was quite handsome in a straight suit, and his delicate face showed a hint of nervousness.
Sitting down in the center of the dining room, the openwork cylindrical chandelier hanging from the ceiling emits a dim yellow glow, and looking down, the silverware on the table is also covered with a faint halo.
The manager served him wine and chatted casually, "Presumably Mr. must have made an appointment with a beautiful woman, otherwise how can it be paired with delicious food and wine, with you, sir." β
"It's a beautiful woman, but I'm more worried that I don't deserve her." Jiang Hanchen smiled and held the goblet filled with boiled water to his lips.
"Challaβ" The manager pushed the wine bottle aside and straightened the plate for him, "You're the second guest to be able to charter the restaurant, after all, the restaurant has been doing well." β
And what about the first place? Also spend a lot of money for the sake of beautiful women? Jiang Hanchen didn't ask, just raised his eyebrows.
He chatted with the manager without saying a word, until the wind chimes rang in his ears, he paused, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the door - he saw Tang Luoran wearing a pink skirt, a woolen coat and a scarf hanging on her hands, and she handed it to the waiter along with the hat.
Although it was far away, he could still clearly see that Tang Luoran didn't seem to be very happy.
And the manager, who also moved his gaze to Tang Luoran, was even more surprised, and his excited reaction attracted Jiang Hanchen's attention.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Hanchen turned around suspiciously, and saw the manager explaining hesitantly.
"Isn't this Mrs. Fu...... The first time I just said it, it was Mr. Fu who booked the seat, and she was also the person he was waiting for. β
Worst!
Jiang Hanchen immediately understood why Tang Luoran was unhappy, but the most important thing at the moment was to find a way to block the manager's mouth.
"Why didn't you say it earlier? Zichen and I are good friends, this time he asked me to come over to make a reservation first, and when he came, I would leave. Pretending to smile calmly, Jiang Hanchen smiled heartily and looked unusual.
Finally broke away from the manager, Tang Luoran also walked over, sat down in front of him, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting, to be honest, I was a little surprised, I didn't expect you to book here - after all, the price here is very high." β
This is the place where she divorced Fu Zichen again, and it is also her sad place, she didn't expect to have a chance to come again, Tang Luoran suddenly felt ridiculous, but the person in front of her was not Fu Zichen, but Jiang Hanchen.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, Tang Luoran turned his face away, and pretended to be as casual as possible.
"I'm sorry, I still can't hide it from you, I just found out that you and Fu Zichen have been here, I'm sorry." Jiang Hanchen slowly broke the silence and looked at her with eyes as deep as obsidian.
Her delicate body trembled violently, and her side face froze, she didn't expect him to be so direct.
But this made her breathe a sigh of relief, and when she turned her head to meet his eyes, Tang Luoran smiled bitterly and said indifferently, "Actually, you don't have to be nervous, I'm not someone who gets hurt so easily, I just don't like it here very much." β
With that, she looked around uncomfortably.
Since this is the case, let's leave - Jiang Hanchen didn't have time to speak, so he straightly pulled Tang Luoran out, rushed to the door along the aisle, and took advantage of the waiter's inattention to tear off the outside of the tripod.
Unlike the warmth of the interior, the outside of the house is covered in layers of snow, as cold as if you were in an ice age.
Seeing that the waiter didn't catch up, Jiang Hanchen stopped, let go of her hand, turned around, first put her hat on, and then wrapped a heavy scarf around her, he said with a smile, "We really look like fools like this." β
Tang Luoran gasped and couldn't help laughing.
Putting on the woolen coat, he immediately pulled her back to the car, and as soon as he closed the door, it began to snow outside the window again, gradually pouring from the stars to the stars.
Turning his head to look at Tang Luoran on the side, Jiang Hanchen was still laughing, and said softly, "I'll take you to a place, the road may be a little bumpy, you can bear with it a little." β
"No problem." Tang Luoran rubbed his frozen hands and readily agreed to this.
After getting into the car, it was exactly eight o'clock, her mobile phone rang the alarm clock again, Tang Luoran turned off the alarm clock, simply leaned on the leather cushion, and gradually became sleepy......
β¦β¦
"Luo Ran, Luo Ran, we have arrived." The voice in her ears gradually became clear, Tang Luoran finally couldn't ignore it, opened her eyes, and what caught her eyes was still the roof of the car, and Jiang Hanchen was next to her - he was already standing outside the car.
She just fell asleep?
Anyway, where is this?
Lowering her head and sweeping her face, Tang Luoran staggered out of the car, sobered up by the cold wind, she got out of the car, and what caught her eyes was not the prosperous scenery she saw before closing her eyes, but a sea, the water rose and fell, and the wind and clouds surged.
She blinked, looked at the sea in front of her again, and found that the dark sea was reflected in the sky full of stars, and from a distance, she thought that the stars had fallen into the sea, which was indescribably beautiful.
With wide eyes, Tang Luoran turned his head to look at Jiang Hanchen beside him, the wind blowing from the sea ruffled her hair and blocked her cheeks.
"Why did I bring you here?" Jiang Hanchen also turned his head to meet her eyes, although his vision was dim, she could still see his appearance clearly - the bright eyes raised at the corners of his eyes narrowed, and he hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled gently.
Tang Luoran brushed the hair on his cheeks, his gaze still falling on him, "Why?" β
In fact, it's okay not to say it, she doesn't force it.
But now it is clear that he wants to say, since he can't stop her, he should simply be more cheerful, let him say it clearly, "I thought about it for a long time, and sure enough, I still can't go on like this, Tang Luoran, my feelings for you are not at the level of ordinary friends." β
It was obviously difficult to say, but in Jiang Hanchen's mouth, it seemed natural.
"I like you, no, I love you, and while it may be out of place to say this now, I really can't stay with you as a friend anymore, and I want to be able to hug you generously." He poured out his heart one after another, and he kept his eyes on her.
And Tang Luoran was silent, suddenly turned his gaze to the sea, and suddenly looked at him again, the smile on his pretty face dissipated little by little, replaced by stiffness, and avoidance intentionally or unintentionally.
But he had already made up his mind, no matter what she thought, he insisted on finishing his words, "And I brought you here, just because this place is like a different time and space that blocks the outside world, we are here, we don't have to be disturbed by the outside world, if you return to the real world, you don't belong to me, I may even look at you twice and you may be maliciously slandered." β
Not every wealthy lady has to suffer such a white eye, but Tang Luoran does not have Fu Zichen's support, how can she maintain her position in public opinion?
Being so cautious now is just a matter of not falling into the hands of others.
"I also know that you haven't dealt with your relationship with Fu Zichen yet, but I think if you can, please give me a chance, you forget Fu Zichen and try to accept me, okay?" Asked solemnly, this time Jiang Hanchen had already finished speaking, and then he only waited for Tang Luoran to answer.
Silence is the most tormenting, but she chose silence.
After a while, Tang Luoran suddenly looked up at the sea, and at this time, the sea breeze gradually stopped, and there were no more ripples to break the stars on the sea.
She curled the corners of her mouth and chuckled, but there was a hint of pathos in her eyes, "Thank you for saying this to me, I won't refuse you, but can you make me think about it?" It doesn't matter if it's a week, a day or two, and if my answer doesn't go my way, you can leave. β
This is already the biggest concession she has made.
Of course, Jiang Hanchen's attitude was also very clear, "I will wait for you." β
As he spoke, his eyes narrowed, ignoring the blood flowing inside.
"Tick-" The hands reached nine o'clock, and there was no sound in the brightly lit villa except the bell.
It was supposed to be a quiet night, but Yin Zi, who had been in the study since an hour ago, suddenly collapsed and shouted, "Damn, where did Zichen put his phone?" β
She'd been flipping through it for an hour, but she couldn't see anything but some discarded files.
Since she couldn't find her phone, Yin Zi couldn't do it, so she simply sat down on the chair, opened the laptop she brought on the table, and at the same time took out her mobile phone to call the man.
The man picked up the microphone, and before she could say anything, she felt his impatience.
Fortunately, she was also cheeky, so she directly ignored his impatience and asked angrily, "Do you still have that video?" Send me another copy, I need it. β
As soon as the words ended, there was a sneer on the other end of the phone.
"Don't you have it yourself?" The man said nonchalantly, his attitude towards her was still unkind.
was obviously anxious like an ant on a hot pot, but in order to set out the video, Yin Zi still stiffened his head and responded word by word, "If there is, I won't ask you, all the files on my mobile phone and computer have been hacked, and there is no way to open them, so it can be said that it is just a bunch of junk files." β
She looked at the files on the computer screen, holding the mouse and trying to click twice on each file, but there was nothing but a question mark.
The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, she simply emptied the file, and asked the man on the other side, "I've finished explaining, can you give me the video, don't worry, I won't lose it again this time." β
Her chest heaved heavily from anger, and her slightly bulging abdomen was filled with pain from time to time.
Pale, tormented by labor pains, she gritted her teeth and waited for a response on the other end of the phone.
"I said it a long time ago, there is only one copy of the video, you take care of it yourself, the master tape has been deleted by me, that kind of useless thing, it will be a disaster to stay with me sooner or later." When the man mentioned this, he gasped heavily, as if he had had some unpleasant experience.
What the!
Yin Zi slapped the table and got up, not caring about the pain for a while, her eyes widened, and her scarlet lips trembled, "You deleted it like this, so what should I do?" β
