Zuo Lan looked at me for a long time, with a solemn expression, and said to me in a tone that was even pleading: "Zhang Yixi, please stop interfering in the lives of our mother and son, okay?" ”

"I'd love to, but ....... I can't live the rest of my life in the lies you weave for me, if Pipsqueak is our son, don't cruelly deprive me of my right to be a father, okay? ”

"I want to emphasize again, Pippi is not your son Zhang Yixi...... Everything is Bai Jing misleading you again, as my best friend, of course she hopes that I have a man by my side who can shield me from the wind and rain. ”

I smiled: "Bai Jing is also a woman who does financial work, with a strict personality, is it just to help you find a man, so Pippi is my son?" Do you think she's so ridiculous? ”

Zuo Lan closed her eyes, as if she was enduring my inquiry, and only opened her eyes for a long time and said to me: "Zhang Yixi, can you live your own life?" As early as four years ago, I was tired of you, tired of the life we used to live together......."

"You didn't tell me that last time, you left only because of your parents and ...... and senior sister. ”

Zuo Lan looked at me coldly for a long time: "Then I will add one more point now, I left at that time because I was fed up with the days when I couldn't see the future every day, and I was fed up with the days of being strapped and even worrying about next month's rent." ”

Zuo Lan's words made me feel depressed, and I remembered the gray past that I couldn't look back on, I felt ashamed, and lit a cigarette in silence.

Zuo Lan continued: "I was young and ignorant when I once fell in love with you, thinking that you were different and unkempt, but in fact it was a kind of cynicism without a sense of responsibility....... If Qi Dong hadn't appeared in my life, maybe I would still be naïve and obsessed with your alternative, your cynicism, but after experiencing my marriage with Qi Dong, I learned what warmth is and what love a woman really needs....... I really regret it, regret that my first man was not Qi Dong! ...... Zhang Yixi, really don't appear in front of me with your hateful face anymore......"

Zuo Lan didn't say any more, she couldn't cry anymore, and from her expression, I read her deep attachment and apology to Qi Dong.

"I'm sorry I delayed you!" I was silent for a long time, and I whispered to Zuo Lan.

"Let's go....... I'll have a good life with Pippi. Zuo Lan looked at the dark corridor where the sensor light had been extinguished and said to me.

I nodded, and finally said, "If there is anyone who needs my help in the future, give me a call, and I will be the first to show up wherever I am." ”

......

The world outside the building was covered in snow, and the night seemed so quiet against the white background, I looked up at the sky and wondered: Does this mean that my world will also be quiet?

The snow fell on my shoulders and refused to melt, and I was in that whiteness, as if I had seen a long time ago, when we were being played with by youth in crying and laughing...... If Zuo Lan had faced me four years ago, would her life still be so bleak?

And who arranges the sentimentality of our youth and ignorance?

.......

A week later, Han Feng and I went to Nantong early in the morning, today the third branch of the "fat stall" will open in Nantong, and it is currently the only store built according to the standard of the flagship store, only this store Han Feng has invested 5 million, the software and hardware of the store are the top configuration of the fast food industry, the business area reaches 500 square meters, and the scale is comparable to "sea view coffee".

Han Feng as the head of the "fat file", I attended the opening ceremony as the brand director, the opening of the Nantong flagship store will be an important step for us to open the brand strategy, we are to use the momentum of the industry standard, to tell the domestic fast food industry "the wolf is coming!" ”

The reason why we chose to open the flagship store in Nantong is, firstly, Nantong is the hinterland of me and Han Feng, and secondly, we have a special affection for Nantong, we have suffered the most painful failure in our lives here, so salvation will also start here, after the opening ceremony, the plan to rebuild the "Xiluo men's products store" will also be officially opened.

......

The opening ceremony started at 9:18 in the morning as usual, and many friends came to the scene, and even Prince and Shen Man, who had been busy, also rushed to the scene to cheer us on.

After the salute and the cheers of the crowd, Han Feng delivered an opening speech as the head of the house, and the recent Han Feng was quite proud, and the speech was also full of momentum, all those who participated in the opening ceremony could feel his ambition, and I, as the brand director, gave a speech after him, explaining our brand positioning and business characteristics.

After the speech, Han Feng and I stood side by side and accepted some media interviews on the scene, the interviews all revolved around the core of why Han Feng suddenly entered the catering industry.

After the interview, Han Feng and I entertained the guests as hosts, at the noon banquet, the two of us were overwhelmed, both drank a little high, but willingly, today does have a very special meaning for us, and the industry is also very optimistic about me and Han Feng's business combination, in short, success seems to be just around the corner for us.

.......

After the luncheon, I habitually wanted to find quiet in the hustle and bustle, so I borrowed the sofa in Lin Xi's office and planned to rest for a while.

Lin Xi made me a cup of hangover tea, and brought me a blanket to cover it, and I nodded to her to thank her.

"Yixi, I'm really happy to see what you've achieved now....... Lin Xi said to me sitting on the sofa opposite.

I smiled and didn't say anything, in fact I felt that this was a topic that should not be touched between me and my ex-girlfriend, after all, it was material deprivation that killed our love.

I changed the subject and asked, "How are you and Colin, I don't seem to have seen him in a long time." ”

"He went to Europe to find inspiration for his paintings...... By the way, he will have a solo exhibition in Shanghai next year, and I hope you can go to the venue when you have time. ”

"Definitely, just let me know when the time comes."

"What about you, how are you doing?" Lin Xi asked me.

"Which one?"

"I've seen your career, so of course it's feelings."

"It's good."

Lin Xi pointed at me and smiled helplessly: "I feel like you are a little bit of a coping with me......" After a pause, Lin Xi leaned in front of me, and asked in a very serious tone although he smiled: "Yixi, what do you think of Qingyi, I heard that my uncle and aunt like her very much!" ”

I stared at Lin Xi for a long time and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"Let's pretend to be confused...... Of course I am......" Lin Xi didn't say a reason for a long time, patted my leg for a long time, as if he had let go and said, "Oops...... Do you like Qingyi? ....... Don't tell me you only treat her as a regular friend! ”
