，！

Inexplicably, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, I shouldn't have come back, and that's all there is to it when I come back.

I looked at my legs again in annoyance, and then I collapsed on the bed and closed my eyes.

In almost two days, my feet have improved a lot, Chen Qingchuan has never come to my apartment again, I don't know why, I was a little relieved, it's okay, it's better for the two to have less contact, after all, he is now a person with a girlfriend, and my relationship with him is better not to be too close, and to see him as rarely as possible.

After my legs were almost good, I lay on the sofa and slept for three days, and three days later, I went to the old house to see Jin's mother, I was afraid that I would meet Chen Qingchuan there, but no, only Jin's mother was there at home.

Except for the leg is a little disadvantageous, the rest of the mother is not too bad, she can talk and laugh, she has been lying in bed for too long, she saw me coming, so she wanted me to take her outside to bask in the sun.

The weather was really good today, and I saw that she seemed to be very bored in the room, so I didn't refuse, and helped her to sit down in a wheelchair with the nurse, and then took her outside to the lawn.

But not long after the turn, a car came in outside the iron gate of the old house, it turned out to be Chen Qingchuan's car, I thought he was here, but I was startled, and hurriedly looked at that end.

Who knew that the person who came down turned out to be Dingkun, and there seemed to be no one in the car, because after Dingkun came down, he immediately closed the car door and locked the door.

Seeing that I was looking at the other end a little nervously, Mama Jin asked me, "What's wrong with you?" ”

I immediately looked back at Mama Jin and said, "It's okay, I thought it was who." ”

Mother Jin watched me grow up, she naturally saw what I was thinking at a glance, she said: "Okay, don't look at it, although Qingchuan often comes here to see me, there is no reason to come here for two or three days in a row, generally, he comes to see me twice a month, or twice a month, you don't have to be afraid to see him here." ”

I retorted in a whisper, "Mama Jin, who said I was afraid to see him?" ”

Mother Jin sat there and laughed and said, "What do you think, I know very well, Mother Jin is also half a nurse for you." ”

The flowers and plants at her feet said: "Now that you and Qingchuan have come to this point, it is naturally inconvenient for me to say anything, after all, this is your choice, but Kaiyan, do you really have no idea about Qingchuan at all?" ”

For Jin's mother's words, I said: "Jin's mother, I just want to live a good life now, and this time I came back, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would ......" I shook my head and said to her: "You don't understand." ”

Jin Ma said: "I really don't understand, anyway, no matter what I say now, the break between you and Qingchuan is broken, no matter how much I expect it, it's just empty talk." ”

She sighed, then turned around and took my hand and said, "Kaiyan, I hope you and Qingchuan will not regret it in the future." ”

I said, "I'll take you around." ”

I didn't want to continue the conversation with Mama Kim, but she didn't say anything more than she knew I didn't like to hear it, but nodded her head and let me take her around the garden.

And Dingkun came over, it seemed that he was here to deliver something, Jin's mother said that usually Dingkun was buying things here, and if there was anything missing, his aunt would call him regularly.

I just learned that Dingkun often comes here.

I accompanied Jin's mother in the garden all morning, and I was supposed to accompany her to dinner in the evening, but in the afternoon, I received a phone call, which was given to me by Lin Yutang, and she asked me to come out to meet.

I don't know who she found my phone from, but I knew in my heart that she would come to me sooner or later.

Sooner or later.

Chen Qingchuan's ex-wife, for her, I'm afraid it's not something that can be ignored casually.

I don't really want to meet her, thinking of what Chen Qingchuan said to me last time, I said on the phone about her appointment: "Miss Lin, I don't think there seems to be anything to talk about between us, I am indeed Chen Qingchuan's ex-wife, but I have nothing to do with him anymore, and I will not pose any threat to you." ”

When Lin Yutang saw my words, he meant to refuse.

She smiled on the other end of the phone and said, "Miss Xu, you misunderstood, I didn't have any malicious intent in asking you, I just wanted to invite you to a cup of coffee." ”

Immediately after, she said, "If you are inconvenient, I can come to see you, I think, the two of us will meet this face, no one will be avoidable, right?" ”

What she meant was that if I avoided her, she would come to me.

I really don't know what she's looking for me for, I'm just Chen Qingchuan's ex-wife, and I shouldn't be much of a threat to her.

However, she said this.

Naturally, I didn't shirk it anymore, and I said, "Okay, you can find a place, and I'll go look for you." ”

She said, "The café on the corner of Chaoxia Road, I'm waiting for you there at three o'clock in the afternoon." ”

It was exactly two o'clock, and I looked up at the time on my wrist and said, "Okay, no problem." ”

When we hung up, I put it in my ear and sat on the couch for a few seconds before getting up.

Auntie happened to come out of Jin's mother's room, and Jin's mother was taking a nap at this time, I saw that my aunt was there, so I took the opportunity to say to her: "Auntie, I won't eat here anymore at night, I have something to go out." ”

My aunt looked at me and saw me say this, so she hurriedly asked, "Aren't you waiting for Mother Jin to wake up before leaving?" ”

I said, "No, you can wait for Mama Jin to wake up and help me talk about it." ”

I didn't stop any longer, and walked towards the outside of the old house.

I went to the taxi to stop outside, and by that time, Lin Yutang was already waiting for me, I stood at the door and looked at her who was drinking coffee inside, I paused for a few seconds, but I didn't hesitate, and finally pushed the door and walked in.

When she got inside, she saw me at a glance and sat down on the card seat, her eyes falling on me.

I sat down directly in front of her, and I said, "Tell me, what are you looking for me?" ”

I looked at her.

She elegantly took the spoon and spun the coffee in the cup and said, "To be honest, Miss Xu, I really didn't know that you were Qingchuan's ex-wife before, so I'm really sorry." ”

Although she said that she was apologizing, she was just talking casually, without any sincerity.

Naturally, I wouldn't be naïve enough to take her words seriously, I said, "It's normal not to recognize me, after all, a person like me is just nothing in Miss Lin's eyes." ”

She smiled and said, "Don't worry about what I said to you before, it's just casual talk, and after Qingchuan sent you back, he came back to explain to me the relationship between the two of you." When she said this, the hand holding the spoon stopped and said, "I heard that Qingchuan has always been sponsored by Miss Xu's father before. ”

I said, "What's the problem?" ”

Her smile was not as contemptuous as she had been for me before, she said: "I came today, there is another meaning, I want to thank your father, although the old gentleman is no longer alive, but if there is no old gentleman, if you want to come, there will be no Qingchuan today." ”

The waiter brought the coffee over, and Lin Yutang personally served it in front of me and said: "You are Qingchuan's ex-wife, I also heard that Qingchuan married you because she was grateful for your father's kindness, and now Miss Xu took the initiative to dissolve her marriage with Qingchuan because she wanted to live her own life, so that your marriage with Qingchuan was completely just the arrangement of the elders, and Qingchuan's repayment of your family's kindness?" ”

Hearing her say that, I didn't speak.

Lin Yutang said: "So, I don't have any ill will towards you, on the contrary, I want to thank you and your father for taking care of Qingchuan all the time." ”

She is completely swearing sovereignty to me, and she has come to thank my family for Chen Qingchuan.

I don't know why, but I thought it was a little funny.

However, I did not intend to have any objection to her oath of sovereignty, but smiled and said, "Don't be so polite, but I want to thank him." ”

I thought about it for a while, and then said: "Anyway, I congratulate Miss Lin here in advance, no matter what, now that we are divorced, we no longer have any relationship, and I ask Miss Lin to relax." ”

I thought for a moment and said, "If it's okay, I'll go first." ”

I didn't want to stay here with her, Lin Yutang said: "Miss Xu, don't be in a hurry to leave, in fact, Qingchuan and I want to invite you to dinner tonight, which is also what he meant." ”

I paused and looked at him.

"You're our friend, we're meeting for the first time, and that's how I should be," she said. ”

She got up and said, "Why don't we go shopping first?" Qingchuan is still working at this time, and it may not be until seven o'clock in the evening to arrive. ”

I didn't expect this to be what Chen Qingchuan meant, but he said it, I like Lin Yutang, maybe this meal also wants the two of us to get acquainted with each other.

I really don't like to have any contact with people like Lin Yutang, but if I refuse at this time, it will be as if I have an opinion about her.

I could only smile and say, "Okay, I'm fine anyway." ”

She said, "Let's go, there's a shop up there, the clothes are all good, we can go and shop." ”

I smiled at her.

After that, I went to the third floor of the mall with Lin Yutang, and Xiang Hong came back halfway, which surprised me.

She was dressed in professional attire, apparently fresh from the company.

Lin Yutang saw us looking at each other, she introduced me with a smile and said, "Miss Xu, you shouldn't need me to introduce you, this is Xiang Hong, Qingchuan's cousin." ”

Xiang Hong saw that there was no accident, she glanced at me, didn't speak, but walked straight towards Lin Yutang, and said with a smile: "Yutang, I'm sorry I'm a little late." ”

Lin Yutang was very polite to Xiang Hong, she smiled and said: "It's okay, we just arrived, Auntie's birthday is a few days, I really don't know what gift to give her, Auntie's favorite person is you, I think you will be able to help me pick a gift she likes for her, I really want to trouble you today." ”

Xiang Hong said: "Why are you polite to me, I naturally want to help you with this kind of thing." ”

She grabbed Lin Yutang and said, "Let's go, Yutang." ”

I didn't expect Xiang Hong to have such a good relationship with Lin Yutang, according to her temperament, Lin Yutang, the person who came to intercept her halfway, is she willing?

I looked at her.

Lin Yutang saw me standing there looking at Xiang Hong, so she said, "Miss Xu, let's go?" ”

I nodded and said, "I'll just follow you." ”

Lin Yutang probably knew that my relationship with Xiang Hong was not good, so there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, so she walked in front of Xiang Hong, and I followed behind them.

The two of them had a lot to talk about, but it was me, who followed silently, like a maid.

I didn't bother to plug in, I had nothing to say to Xiang Hong, not to mention that there is one more Lin Yutang now.

Xiang Hong took Lin Yutang to the jewelry store and picked a bracelet for Chen Qingchuan's mother, the bracelet is not expensive or cheap, but the style is very novel, Lin Yutang seems to be very satisfied, and directly asked the staff to pay for it, but when she paid the bill, she also bought a necklace for Xiang Hong and gave it to her.

Xiang Hong originally shirked it, but Lin Yutang insisted on giving it to her as a thank you, and she couldn't shirk it, so she accepted the gift that Lin Yutang gave her.

After buying the gift, Xiang Hong's task was naturally completed, and she took the initiative to say to Lin Yutang: "Yutang, since the gift has been selected, then I will go back first, the company still has things to work overtime." ”

When Lin Yutang saw her say this, he naturally didn't keep it, and immediately said, "Okay, you go quickly." ”

When Xiang Hong heard this, she smiled and nodded, and was about to leave, but when she left, she paused for a few seconds, looked at me again, and she left the mall without saying anything.

As soon as Xiang Hong left, Lin Yutang smiled beside me and said: "Xiang Hong is really a good girl, she has no choice in temperament and personality, I think Miss Xu should have been very happy with her before coming to her, right?" ”

I don't know why, I actually want to laugh at Lin Yutang's words, but since she thinks so, let her think so, it is estimated that she will suffer a loss in the future, and she will know that what she is hiding next to her is a little white rabbit or a big bad wolf.

I said, "Well, Xiang Hong is very good, but I haven't gotten along very well with her, so it can be seen that she still likes you." ”

Lin Yutang listened to my words, although he didn't show too much joy, but he was still very helpful and said: "She is not a difficult person to get along with, and people still pay attention to fate." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Qingchuan's phone called, about where we were.

Lin Yutang said to him happily: "I just asked Xiang Hong to accompany me to pick out my aunt's gift, and now I am in the mall." ”

I couldn't hear what Chen Qingchuan said to Lin Yutang inside, but I knew that not long after, Lin Yutang hung up the phone and said to me: "Let's go, Miss Xu, Qingchuan gets off work, and the driver will take us to the Golden Palace now." ”

I said, "Okay." ”

She walked forward, and I followed her.

After arriving at the Golden Palace, we arrived first, and Chen Qingchuan arrived within three or four minutes of our arrival.

As soon as he saw me and Lin Yutang sitting there, he walked up to us and said, "I've kept you waiting." ”

He took off his coat to the waiter, Lin Yutang immediately got up, walked towards him, took his hand and said with a smile: "We didn't wait long, we just arrived." ”

Chen Qingchuan looked at Lin Yutang holding her hand, but he didn't speak, let her hold it, then looked at me sitting there and said, "Kaiyan, I'm sorry, I didn't tell you about eating together today." ”

I sat there and smiled and said, "It's okay, we should have had a meal together." ”

He walked towards the table with Lin Yutang, sat down across from him, Lin Yutang sat next to him, and he asked me, "How was this afternoon?" ”

I probably want to ask how I get along with Lin Yutang.

I said, "That's good." ”

Lin Yutang also said: "I'm okay with Kaiyan, don't worry, she is younger than me, and I also treat her as my sister." ”

Chen Qingchuan looked at her and didn't speak.

At this time, Chen Qingchuan said to the waiter, "Let's serve." ”

After eating, I didn't speak, just buried my head and ate there, and Lin Yutang had been talking to Chen Qingchuan about holding a birthday banquet for his mother.

It's all about which relatives and friends to invite and where to arrange the birthday banquet.

I can't say a word about this kind of thing, and I've been eating silently.

It was about that Chen Qingchuan handed over all this matter to Lin Yutang, so when Lin Yutang asked him anything, he only said yes, and occasionally gave him some advice.

They were all talking at the table, and I was the only one who was silent.

Chen Qingchuan noticed it, so he sandwiched some of my favorite dishes for me, and he asked me, "Didn't you like to eat lobster balls the most?" ”

However, he put some greens in Lin Yutang's bowl, and he said with a smile: "You have been losing weight recently, eat some greens." ”

Lin Yutang smiled and said, "You remember, I thought you were going to give me some fatty meat, I don't like to eat that kind of thing the most." ”

Chen Qingchuan said with a smile: "Naturally, I can't stop your weight loss career." ”

When he finished speaking, he looked at me again.

Seeing that I didn't eat his lobster balls, he put some meat on me and said, "This may not be to your liking, eat small pieces of sea bass." ”

I still nodded and didn't speak.

The meal was not pleasant, and I barely spoke after that.

Lin Yutang and I didn't communicate much, and all of Lin Yutang's attention fell on Chen Qingchuan, and he ignored me.

After the meal was finally finished, Chen Qingchuan sent me back, but he sent Lin Yutang home before sending me home.

Neither of us spoke in the car, and Chen Qingchuan was driving there.

He drove it for a while, and then he said to me behind me, "How is it, how do you feel with her today?" ”

I said, "Didn't you tell me to have less contact with her?" ”

He smiled and said, "I just want you to have a good relationship, you know, she will be my wife in the future, the two of you will always meet, naturally I want you to be friends." ”

I said, "It's good, I didn't hate it when we met for the first time." ”

He looked up in the rearview mirror and asked, "Really?" ”

I said, "Really." ”

He said: "She doesn't have any heart, what to say, it's quite like you." ”

He looked ahead and drove calmly.

When I heard him say this, I didn't answer.

The car suddenly stopped slowly, I thought it was downstairs at our house, but who knew that it was parked in front of a shop, Chen Qingchuan steadied the car and said to me: "Wait for me for two minutes." ”

He got out of the car, then went to the front of the shop not far away, asked for a box of dragon bags, and when he came back, he handed it to me in the back seat of the car.

I looked at him and he said, "I see that you don't seem to like the dishes on the table very much today, and you will be hungry when you go back, so you should eat something first." ”

I looked at him, hesitated for a few seconds, but took it from his hand and whispered, "Thank you." ”

He then resumed his drive and continued to drive forward.

The car finally stopped downstairs, and I got out of his car with the box of xiaolongbao, and he didn't say that he was going to send me upstairs, but just lowered the window, sat in the car and said to me, "Go back and rest early, remember to close the doors and windows." ”

I stood there and nodded at him.

He looked at me.

I didn't stay long, then turned and walked inside.

My feet were still a little missing, and he sat in the car and watched, his eyes following me into the corridor.

When I finally arrived at the elevator entrance, I didn't know why, I raised my hand to take a look, and the xiaolongbao in my hand didn't have the slightest appetite, so I threw it into the trash can next to me, and the elevator door was opened at this time.

I walked straight inside.

After the elevator stopped, I came out of it, and when I looked down to get the key in my bag, there was a person standing at the door, and I stopped and looked up.

The man also happened to turn around and look at me, and it turned out to be Lu Ming.

I barely recognized him, if he hadn't been smiling at me.

He had lost a lot of weight, and he stood looking at me, with a half-burned cigarette butt in his hand.

When he saw that I was back, he snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand and said in a hoarse voice, "You are back." ”

It's only been two years, I don't know why, but I feel like I'm in a different world.

I stood there, not moving, not speaking, just looking at him.

He smiled and asked, "Why, you don't know me anymore?" ”

He walked over, bent slightly in front of me, picked up the string of keys that had fallen at some point, and handed it to me and said, "Long time no see, open face." ”

Instead of picking up the keys in his hand, I rushed over and hugged him hard.

He steadied himself backwards, but soon, he steadied himself and hugged me back as well.

I didn't expect to see him in such a situation, I didn't expect him to look haggard, I almost couldn't believe that the person I hugged was the bright smiling Lu Ming at the beginning.

I grabbed his clothes with my hands and choked up in his arms.

He put his arms around me and said, "What are you crying about, I'm not dead." ”

I hugged him and didn't speak, just cried in his arms, I whispered to him: "Lu Ming, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I hurt you......"

When he heard my words, he pretended to have a relaxed smile on his face, and then disappeared little by little.

He let me hold him and look down at me.

I don't know how long it took, but he was not used to being out too long, so he said to me, "Let's go in first." ”

I looked up at him, and he let go of me and stood in front of me with a calm face.

I nodded, didn't say anything more, opened the door directly, Lu Ming followed me, and when I arrived inside, Lu Ming stood there a little restrainedly, I said to him: "You sit down, I'll pour you a glass of water." ”

He nodded, sat down on the couch, and then I went to the kitchen, poured him a warm glass, and set it in front of him.

He has indeed lost a lot of weight, completely losing the vigor he used to have, two years, I didn't expect that two years would make a person have such a big change, and even so haggard that I can't recognize him if he is the same Lu Ming at the beginning.

I looked at Lu Ming, sat down in front of him, and asked, "How have you ...... lately How's it going? ”

Lu Ming smiled at me and said, "It's the same." ”

I explained to him, "I wanted to contact you, but I found out that you had changed your number. ”

For my words, Lu Ming just picked up the glass of water I poured for him on the table, he took a sip and said, "I just didn't want to contact the previous people, so I changed it." ”

When I heard him say this, I thought of what Chen Lina had said to me about Lu Ming before.

I said, "Didn't you contact Cao Jie and Tan Hui either?" ”

He looked up at me, hooked his lips and smiled, "What's there to connect with?" It's been a long time since I've been out, and I heard you're back, so that's why I'm looking for you. ”

I looked at him and said, "I always believe in you, Lu Ming. ”

Unexpectedly, my words caused him to chuckle, and the laughter was even a little sarcastic, he said: "Why, now even you come to pity me?" ”

I didn't expect him to think so, so I immediately said, "No, Lu Ming, you know that I definitely don't have this intention-"

Before I finished speaking, Lu Ming directly interrupted and said, "Okay, don't talk about that thing anymore, open face!" ”
