That night, when Chen Ziqi followed Lao Chen back home, it was already past twelve o'clock. Halfway through, there was something wrong with the new branch, and the phone called Lao Chen, who had to go over to deal with it. This resulted in a delay of several hours.
Entering the house, Chen Ziqi yawned and said, "I'm sleepy, I want to go to sleep." “
Lao Chen put away the key, changed his shoes, and asked, "Are you hungry, I'll cook you noodles?" “
Hearing the word noodles, Chen Ziqi subconsciously wanted to respond, and immediately reacted again, it was not Chen Xu who said this, and said impatiently, "No need." Then he went into his room and closed the door.
Alas, if Chen Xu was here, he would definitely be verbose again.
She muttered in her heart, before, Chen Xu had already said her a few times, saying that she couldn't be so rude to her father.
This guy still doesn't understand his own affairs, and he cares about others all day long.
She threw the things in her hand, sat down on the bed, and was about to take out her mobile phone, when there was a knock on the door, and then pushed it away, and her father's head poked in, and said, "Otherwise, how about I order takeout, barbecue, or else, crayfish?" ”
Chen Ziqi glared at him and said, "I really don't need to, I'm not hungry." ”
"Not hungry?"
Chen Ziqi shook his head, "It's sleepy." ”
"Okay, then you can sleep." The door closed softly.
Chen Ziqi felt that she was so tired, her father was going to coax her, and there was still a mess in Chen Xu waiting for her to clean up.
"Two men, it's not worry-free."
She shook her head, took out her mobile phone, and muttered in her mouth, "This Chen Xu, it's really enough to drag mud and water, and after three days, when the time comes, the daylily will be cold." ”
As he spoke, he dialed Luo Xiyun's phone number.
A minute later. No one answered, and it hung up automatically.
"Asleep? Or, deliberately not answering my calls? ”
She was not discouraged, and kept calling, but the other party just didn't answer. The fifth time she still didn't answer, she finally gave up.
"Looks like I'm asleep."
She thought to herself, but this didn't bother her, she opened WeChat, selected Luo Xiyun from the contact, closed her eyes, brewed her emotions, pressed the talk button, and said in a panicked voice, "Sister Xiyun, it's not good, Chen Xu fainted again......"
…………
On the other side of the world, it's noon.
In a high-end restaurant, there is a piano in the middle, and a young man in a suit is sitting there playing, soft music that seems to flow from the keys.
At a table near the window, Luo Xiyun and Liu Yumeng sat facing each other, each with a steak in front of them, as well as red wine.
Half of the steak has been eaten, and there is only a shallow layer of red wine left in the glass.
Luo Xiyun lowered his head and gently cut the steak with the knife and fork in his hand, but after cutting it several times, he couldn't cut the small steak.
On the other side, Liu Yumeng put a small piece of beef dipped in sauce into her mouth, but her eyes looked at her, as well as the mobile phone that was vibrating next to her.
The phone had been ringing for a long time, and Luo Xiyun didn't seem to hear it, neither hung up, nor answered it, or even glanced at it. Keep your head down all the way to cut the steak there.
It's just that she's been in that position for a few minutes. How many minutes does it take to cut a steak?
In Liu Yumeng's view, this is purely evasion.
Due to the angle, she couldn't see the name of the contact on her phone clearly, and could only see a Chen character. There is no doubt that this call must have something to do with Chen Xu.
At this time, she felt a little conflicted in her heart. On the one hand, I don't want my friend to have anything to do with that scumbag, and on the other hand, I vaguely hope that she can get back together with him......
Once, she accidentally knew that her brother had always had a woman in his heart, and she realized why her brother had never pursued Xiyun's idea.
The woman's name was Yang Jinxia. It was also from that time that she began to care about the woman's profile.
It's a pity that Yang Jinxia is very low-key, and she has never even been on the news, and even on the Internet, she can't find her photos. It's even harder to see her.
Liu Yumeng didn't know what she looked like, so she didn't recognize her at all last time at the gate of Luo Xiyun's community. I just learned from Luo Xiyun's mouth.
Although it was unbelievable, she knew Luo Xiyun's character better, and would never talk nonsense about this kind of thing.
She felt worthless for her brother, and the woman she thought about was with a man like Chen Xu.
Just now, she had an irrepressible idea, if Luo Xiyun and Chen Xu got back together. Wouldn't her brother have a chance?
It was this ambivalence that made her uncharacteristically this time, not saying anything, waiting for Xiyun to make her own decision.
After four or five times, the vibration of the phone finally stopped.
Luo Xiyun paused, then put down the knife and fork, picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, and said, "I'm full......
Tick......
At this time, her phone rang again, and she received a WeChat message.
Seeing that she didn't mean to look at WeChat, Liu Yumeng put down the knife and fork in her hand and said, "I'm done eating too, then, let's go." With that, she raised her hand and called the waiter over, ready to pay.
Tick, tick......
During this period, Luo Xiyun's mobile phone rang one after another. Liu Yumeng looked at her and noticed that her hand was clenched and loosened, clenched and loosened, and knew that she was fighting fiercely.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, from the bottom of her heart, she didn't approve of Xiyun and Chen Xu getting back together, putting aside the problem of character. Since it was decided to break up, there must be irreconcilable contradictions. Even if they get back together, the contradictions are still there, and sooner or later they will break up, and they will still break up in the end.
Even if Chen Xu and Yang Jinxia were cut in two, so what? As the saying goes, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, this kind of thing, there has been a once, there will definitely be a second time, a third time......
Hmph, man!
Thinking to herself, she took out a card from her bag, handed it to the waiter, paid the bill, and gave a tip.
When the waitress left, she said, "Let's go." ”
Luo Xiyun stood up, picked up her phone, and happened to receive another WeChat, her hand seemed to be burned and let go.
Liu Yumeng looked uncomfortable for her, and couldn't help but say, "Maybe, there is really something urgent." ”
Luo Xiyun didn't make a sound, picked up his phone again, and stood up.
The two walked outside side by side, and when they were about to reach the gate, Liu Yumeng said, "Take a look, you should also make a break." If you don't look at it, this matter will always be on your mind. At most, after reading it, it will be blocked and completely disconnected. ”
Luo Xiyun listened to her words and held the mobile phone in his hand tightly.
Liu Yumeng rented a car, and she has a driver's license here. After the two got into the car, Luo Xiyun finally made up his mind and unlocked his phone.
Liu Yumeng saw that there were many messages on it, all of which were long voices.
Luo Xiyun hesitated for a moment, tapped the first one with his finger, and a girl's crying voice rang out, "Sister Xiyun, it's not good, Chen Xu fainted again......"
Liu Yumeng also heard it, looked at her, and saw that her face changed.
Luo Xiyun immediately clicked on the second one, which was still the voice of the crying girl, "Originally, he was almost well, but after a few days, his complexion became worse and worse, and later, I found out that he was secretly taking sleeping pills......
At this moment, Liu Yumeng's face turned pale when she saw her.
"Sister Xiyun, I don't know what happened between you? However, Chen Xu, he really loves you, and one night in the middle of the night, I saw him holding a photo of you and secretly crying in the room......"
"Just now, he suddenly fainted, I was so scared, no one answered your call, you should come and see him - the doctor is out......"
This is the last piece of information.
After a suffocating silence, Luo Xiyun spoke, "Excuse me, send me to the airport." ”
In Liu Yumeng's heart, there was a trace of unbearability after all, "Have you thought about it?" ”
"I'll just take a look."
