097, his three homes
Chen Qingzhou's expression was a little helpless: "Miss Ruan, once it was a chance encounter, and twice it shows that we are destined." ”
A shopping guide came over at this time and handed a credit card and a receipt to Chen Qingzhou: "This gentleman, your bill has been settled clearly." Your furniture is being packed in the warehouse at the back and delivered by our delivery person to the address you left with us by 6 o'clock in the evening. ”
"Thank you." Chen Qingzhou took the credit card and receipt from the shopping guide.
Ruan Shu had already been confirmed from the words of the shopping guide: Chen Qingzhou did not follow her, but came earlier than him. She smiled: "It seems that I do have a relationship with Mr. Chen." ”
Chen Qingzhou didn't bother with her misunderstanding, and raised his finger to point to the rocking chair: "Are there any old people at home?" ”
Don't blame him for being suspicious. Indeed, there are few rocking chairs in ordinary people's homes now, and the average elderly like to use rocking chairs. When Ruan Shu found out that there was a rocking chair on his shopping list, he spontaneously imagined in his mind the picture of Fu Lingyuan, who was white-eyed and white-bearded, shaking a fan and lying on the rocking chair with his eyes half-closed, which was very ridiculous.
"No, just buy it and play with it." Ruan Shu replied casually. She didn't know what Fu Lingyuan was buying a rocking chair for. There are not many styles of rocking chairs, and she has to try to buy one that matches the decoration style of the home, otherwise it will be awkward.
After listening to her answer, Chen Qingzhou's expression was a little strange, and his tone was quite meaningful: "Buy it and play it......"
Ruan Shu frowned slightly, but he didn't notice anything wrong with his words for a while.
Chen Qingzhou had already restrained his meaning, sat down on the rocking chair that Ruan Shu had tried, lay back, shook it twice, and then sat down again, patting the armrest with his palm: "It's really comfortable." Maybe I might consider buying one. ”
Ruan Shu called the shopping guide, asked about the color and style, and finally reluctantly selected a rattan rocking chair, pondered and put it on the balcony, and then added a rattan table, maybe it would be good to use it for sunbathing and taking a nap in winter.
thought that Chen Qingzhou was just talking, but he really asked the shopping guide to bring him a rocking chair, but the style was different from hers.
"Mr. Chen, is this a housewarming joy?" Ruan Shu asked casually.
Chen Qingzhou nodded: "Well, I just bought a villa in the Green Water Mansion near here a few years ago. ”
Ruan Shu's heart struck: Another coincidence? Still is......
She didn't show any dew on her face, she only said "congratulations" lightly, thinking in her heart, no matter what, she had to mention this matter to Fu Lingyuan at night.
"What about Miss Ruan? Also housewarming? Chen Qingzhou replied, "Ling Yuan didn't accompany you today?" ”
Ruan Shu naturally noticed that he used the word "again".
When she met at the restaurant of the Yeongseong Hot Spring Hotel that night, she ate alone. And when I met by chance today, she also went to the mall alone.
Maybe she is too careful, but out of the sensitivity of a woman, she always feels that Chen Qingzhou is intentionally or unintentionally spying on the relationship between her and Fu Lingyuan.
Ruan Shu smiled lightly: "I also wonder why he is always busy." He is obviously engaged in the same industry as Mr. Chen, why does Mr. Chen have the time to come to the furniture city to choose furniture in person? ”
Immediately, she lowered her voice a little, and asked him with a serious expression: "Can Mr. Chen help me analyze from a man's point of view, is he raising a woman outside?" Moreover, you have been friends for many years, right? Mr. Chen should know him well. You say, is he a man who can be restrained after marriage? ”
Noticing that there was obvious implication in her phoenix eyes, Chen Qingzhou deepened his light smile: "It seems that Miss Ruan misunderstood my words of concern for something else. ”
Ruan Shu smiled silently, which was considered a tacit acquiescence, ended the conversation with him, and went to find the next Taipan table she needed to buy.
When she passed by the bedroom furniture area, she saw a beautiful dressing table, and she couldn't help but stop and turn in to take a second look.
Through the mirror, I found that Chen Qingzhou also came in.
Dressed in casual clothes, with one hand in his trouser pocket, with a sincere expression: "Should there be a dressing table in a woman's room?" ”
"Logically speaking, there will be." Ruan Shu also replied sincerely, "However, the existence of some men's wives cannot be ruled out. ”
Chen Qingzhou's brows furrowed when he heard this, and he glanced at her, as if he wanted to correct something, but out of politeness, he swallowed his words again.
"Mr. Chen is going to buy a dresser for his wife?" Ruan Shu asked with a smile.
"My wife and I divorced very early."
"But," he said, tapping his fingers twice on the dressing table, looking slightly sympathetic, "it was indeed for my ex-wife." ”
Ruan Shu's narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly-she naturally didn't know anything about Chen Qingzhou, let alone his emotional history. But she hasn't forgotten some of what she saw and heard when she was in Rongcheng.
Ex......?
Is it Fu Lingyuan's sister Fu Qingci?
She suddenly felt that Chen Qingzhou was quite interesting.
A mature man in his thirties, with handsome facial features and an elegant temperament. From the two previous meetings in Rongcheng to today's two contacts, he has always given her the impression of being calm and easy-going, and his feelings for Fu Qingci are even more points if he has heard a little.
If it weren't for the deep memory of being surrounded by the convoy, it would have been really difficult for Ruan Shu to associate him with the man who sat in the car in the rain curtain and watched her fall into embarrassment that day.
But it's normal to think about it, people are inherently complex and multifaceted. What's more, with his background, it is impossible to be the same.
Isn't she playing with Fu Lingyuan every day?
Bending the corners of his lips, Ruan Shu helped the shopping guide save trouble, took the initiative to greet him, and recommended to Chen Qingzhou: "I don't know what your ex-wife's preferences are." But I think it's pretty good. From my point of view as a woman, such a beautiful dressing table is placed at home, even a man who doesn't like makeup can't help but sit in front of the mirror. How wasteful is it otherwise? ”
As soon as the words came out, she noticed that Chen Qingzhou's brows were frowning again. Ruan Shu finally understood in a trance that it was most likely the wording "man's wife" that touched him.
recalled the brief side with Fu Qingci in the car not long ago, and it seemed that neither Fu Qingci's appearance nor words and deeds gave people the impression of a "man's wife".
"Since Miss Ruan thinks it's good, it seems that this dressing table is really good. It's just, it seems that Miss Ruan took a fancy to it first? ”
"I like it. But you don't have to buy it back if you like it. Ruan Shu smiled, "I'm just looking." The one at home was also newly bought. ”
After speaking, she knocked lightly in her heart - her mouth was so smooth that she even came out with the word "home".
Twisting her eyebrows, she continued: "Mr. Chen doesn't have to think about me, if you want to buy it, start as soon as possible, maybe other people who know the goods will also take a fancy to it soon." ”
Just as Si said, suddenly, a female voice came out at this time: "Huh, Xianyang, this dresser is very beautiful~"
Immediately afterwards, the figure of the woman swept in and looked at the dresser closely: "You say, is it just right to put it in our new house?" ”
I didn't expect to meet here, Ruan Shu couldn't help frowning.
The moment Tang Xianyang found Ruan Shu, he stopped, stood in the aisle outside the area, and stared straight at Ruan Shu.
The woman noticed Tang Xianyang's abnormality, looked at Ruan Shu along the line of sight, was stunned for a moment, and then smiled slightly: "It's you." ”
Ruan Shu recognized this woman at first glance and the one she had met on a blind date with Tang Xianyang in a shopping mall restaurant.
"Hello." Ruan Shu greeted her politely, and then looked back at Tang Xianyang calmly, his tone was relaxed and vaguely joking, "Didn't you say you wanted to send us an invitation?" We waited and waited, and we didn't wait. I don't even know the date of your wedding. You don't want the red envelopes from me and my third brother, do you? ”
Tang Xianyang didn't answer very unfamiliarly, and still stood like that.
His fiancée was very eye-catching, and hurriedly accosted: "I'm sorry, we have been busy preparing for the wedding since the beginning of the year, taking wedding photos, and various etiquette, and we also met the New Year halfway, and all the time has not been arranged." The invitation was sent to distant relatives and friends first, and then it was close to each other. ”
As she spoke, she had already stood back beside Tang Xianyang, affectionately grabbed Tang Xianyang's arm, glanced at him helplessly and tolerantly, and finally turned back to apologize to Ruan Shu: "I'm sorry." ”
Soon smiled again: "The date of our wedding is next Friday, Valentine's Day, Wuzhou International Hotel, you are a good friend of Xianyang, you must be present." ”
A very decent and generous woman, quite suitable for the family style of the Tang family, and most importantly, she will be a virtuous and virtuous wife. Ruan Shu commented in his heart and was pleased with Tang Xianyang's correct choice.
"Then I will give you good luck in advance, and I will be there." Ruan Shu smiled, "Even if I don't show up, the red envelope will definitely be there." ”
Next to him, Chen Qingzhou had already called the shopping guide over and wanted to make an order to buy the dresser.
Tang Xianyang's fiancée hurriedly asked the shopping guide: "Is there still this dresser?" ”
"I'm sorry for this young lady, we only had three sets of dressers when we bought them, and this is the last one."
"That's ......" Tang Xianyang's fiancée looked regretful, reluctantly glanced at the dresser, and then at Chen Qingzhou, as if she wanted to say something.
But Tang Xianyang, who had never spoken, spoke up: "Give us the dresser." ”
He said this to Ruan Shu. The tone was not negotiating at all, but a bit of a command.
Ruan Shu frowned.
Tang Xianyang glanced at Chen Qingzhou, and when he looked at her again, his eyes were full of disdain: "Aren't they all married to the third brother?" Why, I can't bear the loneliness and come out to hook up with a new concubine? He's going to buy it for you, right? You're not bad for this set of half-set dressers, what are you fighting with us? ”
His fiancée began to pull his sleeves as early as his first words. But he ignored it. She turned to apologize to Ruan Shu urgently: "I'm sorry, don't take it to heart, he's just not in a good mood these two days." ”
"I'm sorry, I really can't help but take it to heart." Ruan Shu's eyes were cold, and then he smiled at Tang Xianyang, "You know that your current words and deeds don't look like a man at all, but like a resentful woman with a dark belly." ”
"You want a dresser, don't you?" Ruan Shu sneered and turned his head to look at Chen Qingzhou, "Mr. Chen, sell me a face, don't let it be given to him." For someone like him, it is better to chop it and use it as firewood. ”
Chen Qingzhou put one hand in front of him lightly and bowed slightly: "I will definitely give Miss Ruan's face." Besides, I'm not a gentleman to anyone. ”
The two of them taunted each other. Tang Xianyang's face was gloomy.
"Hsien Yang, let's go, go buy something else." Tang Xianyang's fiancée's expression was extremely embarrassed.
Tang Xianyang stood still, staring at Ruan Shu's extremely cold expression.
Jiusi had already stood behind Ruan Shu.
Chen Qingzhou glanced at Rong Yi.
Rong Yi thought for a while, walked up to Tang Xianyang, clasped his arms with both hands, and looked at him condescendingly. He didn't speak, but scared him with his strong and burly momentum.
Tang Xianyang's fiancée was really frightened, so she grabbed his arm and pulled him away.
It wasn't until the two of them disappeared completely that Rong Yi walked back behind Chen Qingzhou.
"I'm sorry, I've bothered Mr. Chen." Ruan Shu smiled lightly and apologized.
Chen Qingzhou was not curious about her relationship with Tang Xianyang, and only said, "Miss Ruan is polite." ”
Ruan Shu continued to pick out the required executive table.
After settling the account and walking out of the furniture city, she said goodbye to him again: "I hope today's fate with Mr. Chen ends here." ”
Chen Qingzhou pursed his lips and smiled lightly: "Miss Ruan still avoids me like a snake and scorpion." ”
Ruan Shu smiled and said nothing.
Chen Qingzhou looked at her back, didn't know what to remember, and smiled faintly.
*
The porters from Furniture City followed Ruan Shu to the Green Water Mansion to help assemble all the furniture she bought and place it in their proper positions.
When all of them had left, the house was quiet.
Ruan Shu, as a commander, was also a little tired, threw himself into the sofa, leaned on the big doll bear, and looked around the entire space.
The overall feeling is unfamiliar. But the style of home furnishing makes her vaguely familiar. After all, they have been together for a while, and she can feel a little bit of his preferences.
Think about it, so far, she has stayed in Fu Lingyuan's three "homes".
The styles of the three "homes" are very different -
The small suite is minimalist and clean, obviously in the residential area of ordinary citizens, but there is not much life in the house, just like the hidden existence of a temporary shelter.
The luxury of the villa is the most extravagant of them all, like the presence that shows his identity and status.
And now this high-rise sea view room......
Ruan Shu jumped off the sofa, opened the floor-to-ceiling window, walked to the large balcony, faced the sunset, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at the sea in the distance.
He once pointed to the sea at night on the bridge and told her that he would one day become the supremacy of the sea. And she will be the woman who dominates the seas.
Recalling his confident tone and determined look at that time, Ruan Shu unconsciously curled the corners of his lips.
She really had a disappointing look forward to that day.
It's just that if there really is such a day, the woman standing next to him may not be her anymore.
