Chapter 21: Let's Talk
People are always looking for direction when they are confused, and they are also trying to achieve their goals after finding the direction, but Song Ke is an exception. When they met half a year ago, he thought that Qiao Lan and Xu Qiubai were together, he didn't want to disturb, he hoped that Qiao Lan would be happy, even if it wasn't with him, he still wanted her to be happy.
But by chance, Song Ke learned from Mo Yan's mouth that Xu Qiubai had just met Qiao Lan not long ago, so Qiao Lan was not with Xu Qiubai, and the guardian column in the school also wrote that Qiao Lan was not Xu Qiubai, but Xu Qiubai often went to pick up and drop off children, so the people in the school acquiesced to his identity, which proved that Xu Qiubai lied to him half a year ago, so he had to come back and take the responsibility he should have taken five years ago.
In a café, there are not too many people, and in the corner by the window, the melodious string music and the elegant environment can't hide the embarrassing atmosphere of the two.
Xu Qiubai put down the bitter coffee in his hand and looked up at Song Ke, who was drinking coffee with his head bored, "Ahem, you did everything possible to find me, and you tried your best to support your sister, just to let me come to see you drinking coffee?" ”
Song Ke raised his head and stared at him fiercely, "Where did you hide Qiao Lan?" I looked for her in T City for more than half a year and couldn't find her."
Xu Qiubai smiled, "Joke, what ability do I have, I can hide a person, and hide it so thoroughly, you-overestimate me"
Song Ke said angrily: "If it weren't for you, why wouldn't I have found her for more than half a year, and the child, I went to his previous school, but the people in the school said that he had transferred, and in the past six months, I have traveled to all the kindergartens in T City, each of which is waiting for the last child to leave, and I have never seen Liangliang appear, if it is not you, how can this be?"
Xu Qiubai picked up the cup, smelled the coffee, and said leisurely: "Didn't you never think that maybe Qiao Lan didn't want to see you at all, didn't want you to enter her life, and didn't want you to change her rare quiet now!" ”
Song Ke said clearly: "You really know where she is!" ”
Xu Qiubai tilted his head fearlessly: "What's the matter!" ”
Song Ke sighed: "Actually, I know, I know that you have no intention of her, I just want to find her and explain to her clearly, I want to take responsibility for what I should have taken 5 years ago, I also want to redeem her, save our children, I really love her, I have been wrong for 5 years, I don't want to continue to be wrong!" ”
Xu Qiubai said helplessly: "I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place!" Besides, how can you be sure that Qiao Lan will definitely forgive you and continue to accept you? What's more, the child's acceptance is also a problem, and most importantly, how do you know that I have no intention of her, what if we fall in love for a long time? Xu Qiubai looked at him playfully.
Song Ke smiled treacherously: "Really? Have you been in love with her for a long time? I don't know this, I don't think Mo Yan knows, maybe she shouldn't break up with her boyfriend of four years in college, because the man she has loved for nine years has already empathized."
Xu Qiubai looked at Song Ke incredulously: "Mo Yan? How do you know if I'm interested in Mo Yan? Uh, no, wait, what did you just say? What do you mean? ”
Song Ke looked at him unhurriedly
Xu Qiubai asked anxiously: "Hurry up and say, what's going on?" Did she really break up with her boyfriend of four years in college? What exactly do you mean? ”
Song Ke looked at the anxious Xu Qiubai very funny, "It turns out that you will also be in a hurry!" Looks like I guessed right! ”
Xu Qiubai knew that he had lost his temper, so he adjusted his tone: "You lied to me? ”
Song Ke "That's right, I lied to you, you also lied to me once half a year ago, and we evened out!" ”
Xu Qiubai was obviously a little disappointed, if it was really as he said, then the problem would be much simpler, but he didn't blame Song Ke, because half a year ago, for Song Ke, that lie was much more powerful than this.
Song Ke looked at Xu Qiubai's disappointed expression, and his heart was secretly refreshed, but he couldn't go too far, after all, he still wanted Xu Qiubai to help him, and said leisurely: "But one thing, I didn't lie to you, Mo Yan did break up with her boyfriend who had been in college for four years, but this doesn't mean that you will be easy, do you know why I want to take Lan Shuang?" ”
Xu Qiubai asked vigilantly: "Why?" Afraid of being embarrassed? ”
Song Ke: "I don't care about anything at the wedding, I'm afraid of being embarrassed because of this?" Besides, Lan Shuang and Mo Yan probably know the cause and effect of this matter, and it is precisely because of this that I can know that there is such a relationship between you. ”
When Xu Qiubai heard this, he touched his nose with a little embarrassment, because the relationship between them was really not glorious, and he didn't know what the two of them told him, so he didn't answer.
Song Ke saw that Xu Qiubai didn't speak and continued: "And recently I found out that my sister is more concerned about finding you than me, I think you should know better than me the reason for this!" ”
Xu Qiubai: "Me? "How do I know? Could it be that Mo Yan told her something? "Well, maybe! But even so, I won't say anything without Qiao Lan's consent, as for the child, I can show you something" As she spoke, Qiu Bai took out a painting from her bag and gave it to him, "This is Qiao Luo's homework last week, and the name is my mom and dad"
Song Ke took the painting, looked at it and saw that tears came down, because there were three people in the painting, his mother and him hugged each other affectionately, and there was a man on one side of the painting, but the man was far away from them.
Xu Qiubai said to him, "In the past six months, I have worked hard to make the child grow up cheerful and sunny, I don't want him to live in the shadows, he is very well-behaved, very sensible, and sometimes even sensible and distressing, although he tried his best to suppress his emotions and not make Qiao Lan sad, but I know that he is still looking forward to his father." ”
Song Ke hugged the painting, even though he had suppressed his crying, but the tears still couldn't stop flowing, Xu Qiubai saw this handful of snatched paintings, carefully inspected the paintings that were not soaked, and then put them away, "This painting Qiao Lan didn't know, it was Qiao Luo who painted it himself, it was because of this that Qiao Luo asked me to frame the painting and hide it in a place where Qiao Lan couldn't see it, he actually wanted to have his father's pain" Qiu Bai put away the painting, drank the last sip of coffee, and stood up, "What should be said, what should not be said, I have said it, if you really want to make up for it." , want to redeem, I think, you should know what to do! "Jolo hoped I didn't do anything wrong today.
Seeing that Xu Qiubai was leaving, Song Ke wiped his tears: "Are you really not going to go to the cooperation celebration banquet tonight?" ”
Xu Qiubai: "With Mr. Zhang (Zhang Xichen) here, I think I'll forget it, even if I tell you this, I think you still don't want to see me!" ”
Song Ke: "That's right, I really don't want to see you, after all, you have lied to me for half a year, and you have tortured me for half a year, if I can, I really don't want to see you." However, the protagonist of the evening signing meeting is not me, nor Lan Shuang, we just came to negotiate in advance, and the real representative will attend tonight, whether you come or not, it's up to you! After saying that, he strode away! Xu Qiubai was left alone in the same place!
In the evening, Xu Qiubai drove into Xu's house, different from other villas, many of them are antique buildings, this kind of Chinese-style villa is very popular in T City, and there are many similar buildings in the radius here, which is a rare luxury gold area in T City, and each building exudes the breath of money.
To be honest, if Xu Qiubai really doesn't want to set foot here, Xu Qiubai, who was once free, suddenly one day was told that he would be disciplined and arranged for his future life, maybe no one would be too willing! So he fled!
He never knew that he, who had been poor for 22 years, would know one day 3 years ago that he was the grandson of Xu Ruogu, a real estate tycoon in T City! If Xiao Xingqian and Zhang Xichen knew that he was actually a rich third generation, they would have to knock him on a good meal, otherwise they would be so sorry that he had been "poor and sour" in front of them for three years.
No wonder he rarely saw his grandparents when he was a child, but when he did, the place where he stayed was never the same, and his grandparents were the same, even if he was sent back to his hometown when he was a child, he only had a few chances to see his grandparents, could it be that grandpa also had some secrets? But even so, he still can't escape the result of coming back, because Jolo is still here.
