Chapter 181: The World Is So Small
As soon as Shen Zilu sent a message to Guan Zhengxing, he called, Feng Kefei took out a tissue and handed it to her, Shen Zilu wiped his greasy hand and picked it up.
"Hey."
Listen to the sound of her chewing and ask, "What to eat?" ”
"Chicken wings, Brother Xiao Zheng bought a lot of food, and our sisters are in the process of being wiped out."
In fact, when Guan Zhengxing put his luggage, he saw a bag of snacks in the trunk, and he thought that it should be for Shen Zilu.
"Do you have a problem?"
Guan Zhengxing came back to his senses and said, "The manager who ordered the design plan made an appointment to meet at six o'clock tonight. ”
"You're going out?"
"Hmm."
"How long will we talk?"
According to the experience of the last few times, this project is more complicated than the previous one, and Guan Zhengxing is also ready to live outside.
"Sign the contract, talk about the details, and if it's too late, you won't go back to the dormitory."
Shen Zilu got up and walked to the balcony, closed the door and asked, "You want to live outside?" ”
"Well, the room is already booked."
"Have you eaten dinner?"
"Not yet, let's go down with them and eat casually."
Tao Xiru called Guan Zhengxing to eat, and Shen Zilu said, "Go quickly, I'm fine." ”
"Okay, hang up."
"Bye-bye."
As soon as Shen Zilu sat down, the door of the bedroom opened, and the three of them looked towards the door, it was Liang Jiaqi, who had not seen her for many days, she rarely wore no makeup, her face was a little sickly white, and she didn't say hello when the door was closed, and walked straight to the desk.
I don't know when it started, and the relationship between the four of them has been cold to freezing point.
Liang Jiaqi took off her coat and went to wash with a basin, as soon as she came out of the bedroom, Feng Kefei rolled her eyes, "Who is hanging your face all day long." ”
Shen Zilu kicked her foot from under the table and motioned for her to stop talking.
Feng Kefei said: "What I said is not right. ”
Pang Jinyu also pouted, "She's like that." ”
Shen Zilu deliberately interrupted, leaned back against the chair and touched her little belly and said, "Ah...... It's a bit of a stretch. ”
Pang Jinyu immediately understood, and pulled Shen Zilu together, "Xiaolu, let's take a walk, digest and continue to eat." ”
Liang Jiaqi came back after washing, began to put on makeup and change clothes, and before going out, put the clothes he took off into a bag and took them away.
The door slammed shut, and Feng Kefei shouted at the door: "See, where is our dormitory, it's her hotel." ”
"Don't talk about it." Shen Zilu interrupted her, "It's good to let other dormitories hear our quarrel." ”
"What am I afraid of, I haven't done anything wrong, who knows who does something wrong."
Shen Zilu picked up a chicken leg and stuffed it into Feng Kefei's mouth, "Okay, why are you not finished, you can't stop eating it." ”
Outside the door, Liang Jiaqi heard it clearly, put down her bangs and strode towards the stairs.
Although her life is not stable now, she no longer worries about money, which is more important than anything else.
At the school gate, Liang Jiaqi stopped a taxi and reported the address of the Chang'an Hotel.
At this time, Guan Zhengxing went to Chang'an Hotel to check in first, got the room card and went upstairs directly.
The appointment time was set at six o'clock, he arrived early, opened the notebook first when he entered the room, and the previous customer introduced him with a design drawing, which was more complicated than that of a food processing factory, and the design fee was also rich.
After contacting each other, the two began to chat briefly, Guan Zhengxing sent the architectural drawings he had designed to each other, and then waited for news.
At half past five, Guan Zhengxing closed his notebook and went downstairs to wait for Manager Wang in the restaurant opposite.
The elevator door stopped on the fourth floor, the door opened, and a man in his forties stood outside the elevator with a young girl in his arms.
The world is so small!
Liang Jiaqi pretended to walk in calmly, turned around and looked ahead, but behind him, he was like a man's back.
Guan Zhengxing lowered his eyes, the man's hand went down his waist and put it on her buttocks, the watch was precious, showing his identity, and he withdrew his eyes lightly.
"What do you want to eat in a moment?" The man asked in Liang Jiaqi's ear, and the latter tilted his shoulders awkwardly and said, "Whatever, you can eat anything." ”
"Tsk," the man turned to look at her, "why are you suddenly angry?" ”
Liang Jiaqi hated this elevator and the man next to her, "No." ”
"Look," the man approached her again, staring at her unhappy face and said, "You still say that you are not angry, and you like to ignore what you say, just because you didn't buy you a bag?" ”
“…… No, don't think about it. Liang Jiaqi squeezed the bag in her hand, the soft sheepskin surface was deeply wrinkled by her, her eyes kept staring at the numbers beating on the display, and there was never a moment when she felt that the elevator was so slow.
Finally, when we reached the first floor, the elevator door clanged open.
Liang Jiaqi walked out first, and the man also followed out of the elevator.
She didn't want to be seen by someone she knew about her now, but the person she saw was the boyfriend of the girl she was most jealous of, and he would definitely tell Shen Zilu about today's incident, and then everyone in the dormitory would know, and then the entire girls' dormitory and the whole school.
The more Liang Jiaqi thought about it, the more annoyed she became, and the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and when the man went to pick up the car, he used the excuse that he wanted to go to the bathroom and returned to the hall to block Guan Zhengxing.
"Wait."
“……”
Liang Jiaqi blocked the way, Guan Zhengxing stood still, looking at her expressionlessly.
"What happened just now, I hope you don't tell Shen Zilu."
Guan Zhengxing doesn't have time to meddle with other people's affairs, "I'm not that boring." ”
He walked around the people and wanted to leave, but Liang Jiaqi moved half a step and stopped him again.
"If she tells anyone about me, I'll tell her mom about the two of you."
Guan Zhengxing didn't care about her in the first place, but he hated being threatened.
'Heh......,' he sneered, "go tell me and see if you have a big influence, or if I can coax her mother." ”
Liang Jiaqi gritted her teeth, "......"
"I don't have time for your business, get out of the way." Guan Zhengxing slammed her shoulders away and walked straight away.
When he was about to arrive at the door, Liang Jiaqi caught up with him and begged him, his face lost the arrogance and strength just now, and his humble expression begged bitterly, "Don't tell anyone else, please, let me do anything." ”
Guan Zhengxing shook her off, his tone was angry, "Your business, it has nothing to do with me, don't you understand?" ”
Outside the hotel, the black car stopped, and Liang Jiaqi quickly distanced the two and said:
"Guan Zhengxing, for the sake of me and Xiaolu being roommates, don't say it. I was also forced by life to do this, and I hope you can understand me. She looked in the direction of the car again, the man waited impatiently and honked the horn, she said hurriedly: "I'm leaving, my phone number is 156XXXXXXXX, if you need my help, just call me." ”
Liang Jiaqi ran into the car, and the man asked her, "Who is that person?" ”
Liang Jiaqi was speechless for a while, and didn't know how to make it up, so she said nonsense: "I asked for a phone call, but I didn't give it, so I quarreled a few words." ”
The man glanced contemptuously at the person on the steps, "Robbing a woman with the master and scolding you?" ”
When passing by Guan Zhengxing's side, the man suddenly lowered the car window, pointed at Guan Zhengxing and said: "Look at your virtue, if you are idle, you will find something to do. Don't let me see you again! ”
Liang Jiaqi didn't expect the man to suddenly start scolding, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly raised the car window, pushed the man's arm and said, "Don't make any noise, hurry up and go." ”
The car drove away slowly, Liang Jiaqi looked at the roadside people from the rearview mirror, he retracted his eyes indifferently, and walked to the other side of the road.
Will he help her keep it a secret?
……
Manager Wang arrived at the restaurant five minutes early, Guan Zhengxing was already in his seat, the two shook hands and began to talk about details. The conversation didn't end until half past ten, Guan Zhengxing took the deposit, and tomorrow he will be ready to go to the field to measure and draw drawings.
As soon as the person entered the hotel, the mobile phone rang. The mobile phone number is the local number of Jiangcheng, and I picked it up and asked:
"Hello."
There was silence in the microphone for two seconds, "...... Hello Guan Zhengxing, I am Shen Zilu's mother. ”
Guan Zhengxing suddenly stood up and said in surprise: "...... Aunt? ”
Cui Anya said softly: "I'm sorry, I called you so late, are you in the dormitory?" ”
"I'm not in the dorm, I,"
Without waiting for him to explain, Cui Anya said: "I want to talk to you about Xiaolu, do you think we will meet now, or make an appointment tomorrow?" Oh, by the way, I'm right in front of your school. ”
“……”
Everyone has arrived at school, how can I make an appointment tomorrow.
"Auntie, I'll go back now,"
"Don't, where are you, I'll look for you."
Guan Zhengxing sat in the lobby for half an hour, a black Magotan stopped at the door of the hotel, Guan Zhengxing got up and walked out, and Cui Anya asked the driver to wait for her in the parking lot. "Auntie."
Cui Anya smiled gently, "Wait for it." ”
"No," he said, opening the door behind him and inviting someone in.
"Thank you." And he said, "On the floor." ”
"5th floor."
In the long and narrow corridor, there was silence, Guan Zhengxing brushed open the door of the room, "Please come in, Auntie." ”
Cui Anya walked into the guest room and swept around without leaving a trace, the sheets were flat, the slippers prepared by the hotel under the bedside table were still in place, there was a laptop on the table, and there were no other items.
"You may be seated." Guan Zhengxing was just about to press the switch of the hot water kettle, and the person behind him said, "Don't bother, I'll say a few words and leave." ”
After a pause, he pressed the switch.
Cui Anya smiled, "Come and sit." ”
Guan Zheng walked over and sat at the end of the bed opposite, the flat bed was pressed out of a dent, the kettle behind him made a heating sound, and the atmosphere became tense and nervous unconsciously.
"Are you busy with your studies?"
Guan Zhengxing replied: "It's very busy. ”
"Bitter or not?"
"Don't feel hard to learn, you have to work hard when it's time to struggle."
"Well," Cui Anya nodded approvingly, and said, "You can see it very thoroughly,"
Guan Zhengxing didn't naively think that she came to Beijing overnight just to praise him.
"Auntie, if you have anything, just tell me directly."
Cui Anya maintained an elegant smile and demeanor, "Okay." You can see through it, but Xiaolu can't see through it, not only can't see through this truth, but also only think about playing and thinking about some unrealistic things at the age when you should be working hard. At the end of the day, she's just a child. You say yes. ”
"......" Guan Zhengxing couldn't figure out what she wanted to express in the next sentence, and he was uneasy, "Actually, she also works hard." ”
"She wasn't trying hard enough. She is not like you, you are very smart, and being admitted to Tsinghua University is enough to prove this. But Xiaolu is fundamentally different from you, she is simple-minded, her thoughts are simple, some things she doesn't see very thoroughly, and some people also see too beautiful and idealistic, so it's easy to suffer, I, the mother, have to help her grasp the proportions all the time, so as not to hurt her in the future. Actually, I think you can understand the feelings of parents who love their children. ”
Guan Zhengxing was calm on the surface, his throat rolled slightly, and replied: "...... Understand. ”
Cui Anya smiled, her eyes skimmed over the fingers on his lap and slowly clenched them, and said softly:
"Auntie knows you can understand."
“……”
"She likes the necklace you bought for Xiaolu very much, but I don't think it's suitable for her, this child is also not well educated, how can I accept gifts casually, you are still a college student, it is difficult for you to have a heart for such a valuable gift."
"......" She is not praising him for having a heart, she is sarcastically mocking him for being scheming.
"I talked to Xiaolu about talking about friends in college before, she may not have made it clear to you, my attitude with Xiaolu's father is very clear, what we don't like, people who don't know will not consider letting Xiaolu be with him. As for you, you are very good, you will meet a girl who is better than Xiaolu, and we will also persuade her, don't delay your life and affect your development. It's not early, and my meaning is very clear, here is the money for the necklace, you take it. ”
Cui Anya took out an envelope from her satchel and put it on the table.
