Chapter 55: Closing the Net (I)
Although Chen Muran helped Chao Twilight drag on for more than half a month, the text message for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner still arrived as scheduled. Liang Chaodui avoided a large family and secretly returned to the bedroom. She stared nervously at the two unread text messages and took a deep breath.
"The snow is so deep, it's so serious~" The sudden call music scared Twilight and threw the phone out directly, and the phone fell to the ground with a snap, and the music was still ringing. She calmed down and crawled over to pick up her phone.
"Hey."
"Happy New Year !! Morning and Twilight" Chen Muran shouted excitedly on the other end of the phone, her voice was very noisy, and she should still be attending her mother's company's annual meeting. "Happy New Year!" Chao Du came back to her senses and smiled at her, although she was still uneasy in her heart, but when she heard Mu Ran's voice, she suddenly stopped being afraid.
"You know what? Lu Siyan texted me! He wished me a happy new year and asked me to hang out with me after the new year! Chen Muran was excited on the other end of the phone, and Chao Du could already imagine her dancing.
"Yes, yes, congratulations~ Xiao Luren is okay, I'll reluctantly recognize him~"
"Okay, I won't tell you, many employees can't go home this year, I have to help distribute New Year's gifts, love you Ao Bo Bo~"
The phone hung up, and the bedroom fell silent. The moonlight outside the window seeped into the room, scattered all over the ground, and Chao Du sat on the ground with his back against the bed, looking at the round moon outside the window, and plucked up the courage to click on the text message.
"Chaodui, brother hasn't seen you for a long time, the day after tomorrow we will make up a delicious meal in the small western-style building, you can come."
If you don't know the truth of the matter, Chao Du really believes that Brother Hai is a very good and very good person, he is upright, tasteful, and a big brother with a successful career. But now.... Twilight sighed, "It's okay, let's have one last meal with him before the police arrest him." Chao Du remembered that his subordinates said that the most regrettable thing in Brother Hai's life was that he couldn't have a daughter, his wife died because of illness, and he didn't marry again, only Shen Ziyu had a righteous son, which was really pitiful.
She quickly typed a message of blessing and replied, and clicked on the second text message. "Happy New Year, I'm Lu Siyan, is it convenient to meet tomorrow?" Twilight was a little confused, but she still responded. The moment I closed my phone, the sky outside the window was suddenly lit up by clusters of fireworks, and the colorful fireworks bloomed in the air, which was really beautiful.
Hello, 2017.
The people over there are enjoying the beautiful scenery, but the people here are embarrassed and at a loss, the fireworks above their heads are still blooming, and the people in front of them are also bright and bright, but Chen Muran's heart just can't brighten up. She never thought that what Shen Ziyan said was to confess to her.
Shen Ziyu was about to die of nervousness, and after thinking about it, he still planned to use this old routine to confess. As the saying goes, you and I have no chance, we all rely on routines. At this moment, he was wearing a straight suit, holding a large bouquet of roses in his hand, and looked at Chen Muran, who had just escaped from the annual meeting, to breathe. Neither of them spoke, the boy was waiting for the fireworks to finish his affectionate confession, and the girl was waiting for the fireworks to be released and ruthlessly refused. Chen Muran didn't bother to look at how beautiful the fireworks above his head were, and was full of regret about how he could play so big, and at the same time sighed that he was really rich, and he hadn't finished blowing up for almost ten minutes.
When the fireworks finally finished, Shen Ziyu nervously grabbed the corner of his clothes, cleared his throat and said, "Happy New Year, Mu Ran." ”
"You too, Happy New Year."
“emmm... I know this is a bit abrupt, but Mu Ran, I liked you at first sight," Shen Ziyu blushed and handed over the bouquet, the whole person was stiff because of nervousness, "The fireworks and flowers are prepared for you, I hope you can like it." ”
Chen Muran hadn't taken the bouquet of flowers for a long time, Shen Ziyan didn't dare to look at her, and the hand holding the flowers trembled a little. Huh... Forget it, Chen Muran reluctantly took the flower, and watched Shen Ziyan raise his head, as if there were stars in his eyes.
"Shen Ziyu."
"Well, you say."
"I admit that I took advantage of you, I know the purpose of your coming to Twilight, but I can't let her sink any longer, and now that Twilight's illness is cured, I think we.... There is no need to contact again. ”
Shen Ziyan's eyes slowly darkened, he wanted to say something, but he could only smile awkwardly: "I know.... I know. ”
"You know?" Mu Ran looked at him with some incredulity, "Then how could you..."
"Although my stepfather and I are doing the same thing, I will never let minors and the elderly get contaminated with these, Liang Chaodui's matter, I have always been against it, and this time I also took the initiative to ask for it, in fact, I never thought that Liang Chaodui would continue to take drugs."
Chen Muran bit his lip, not knowing what to say for a while, but Shen Ziyan seemed to be hurt by her words, and the boy's eyes were already slightly red.
"I'm sorry.... I don't know, it's what I'm doing wrong...."
"I guessed you'd turn me down, it's okay. But Mu Ran ..... I really like you, you're the first girl I've ever liked," Shen Ziyan exhaled, pretending to be indifferent, and smiled and played a round, "It's okay, it's just a dream, we're still good friends, okay?" ”
"Well... It's my birthday in a few days, and you must come. ”
"Okay, I'll be there, you go back, otherwise Auntie should be in a hurry." After Shen Ziyu finished speaking, he turned around and left, Chen Mulan looked at the boy's lonely back and gathered the flowers in his hand. In this world, bad people are not without hearts, they are just afraid, afraid of having a weakness, afraid of not getting a response.
Chen Muran silently returned to the venue with the flowers, because the bouquet was too big, it got everyone's attention in an instant. Mu Ran's mother came over with a gossip smile on her face and pulled her baby daughter aside. "Eh, whose is this? Is it the one you recognized at school? ”
"It's not Mom, why are you so gossipy." Mu Ran angrily put the flowers aside, picked up the small cake and ate it. "Also, this flower has to be hundreds, it's not like a student can afford it, eh, who is that?"
"It's just... Someone I know sent it. ”
"Ao~ This situation, you must have rejected it, but you don't seem to be very happy, isn't he handsome? Or is it older? ”
Chen Muran really can't understand her mother's brain hole, it stands to reason that if a boy sends flowers, shouldn't she be tortured and then scolded for not being allowed to fall in love or something? How can she have a feeling that her daughter can't get married. She sighed helplessly: "No, 20 years old, she looks very handsome, but I don't like it, and... I did something sorry for him. ”
"I understand, daughter, no matter what, we can't step on two boats, you know, that thinking is still waiting for you, we can't do this." Mu Ran's mother seemed to agree with her daughter's point of view, she picked up the wine glass and took a sip lightly, giving her daughter a "I understand" look.
Where is this.... Chen Muran rolled her eyes and continued to look for food, Mu Ran's mother looked at her daughter's back, and the more she looked, the more worried she became. Although this feels very good, Mu Ran's character is really not easy to handle, and there are so many shortcomings, I really want to worry about the old mother.
