Chapter 345: Cold-Blooded Animal
After Guan Zhengxing got Manager Ma's information, he immediately handed it over to the police for processing, and because the amount of money involved in the case was huge, the police immediately took technical measures to lock down Manager Ma's location.
Walking out of the Public Security Bureau, Guan Zhengxing raised his head and looked at the sky, the originally gloomy sky revealed a hint of blue, and the sunlight piercing the clouds was like a golden silk thread across the high-rise buildings of the city.
The road ahead is vast, and everything can be expected.
It was getting late, and the three of them appeared in the box on time, and they had been in the society for many years, and now their friendship with classmates made this gathering even more precious. After a few rounds of wine, Tan smiled and said: "In the year you have been gone, we have less contact, without you, without Brother Lu, just the two of us, we will only think of you when we get together." ”
Wen Tuoxi said: "Yes, the original group of five, there are only three people, enough to be aggrieved." ”
Guan Zhengxing raised his glass, "I'm not coming back." ”
Tan smiled and said, "You're back, where is Brother Lu?" You brought Brother Lu back to me. ”
Wen Tuoxi also touched the cup, took a sip and said, "At the beginning, the two of us could say that you would take good care of her for me, and you should be good to her, so I handed over the person to you." ”
What does it mean to give someone to you? Make it look like it used to be yours.
Guan Zhengxing said: "She likes me, have you forgotten?" ”
Wen Tuoxi choked, "Alas, okay, okay, I'm really angry to talk to you." ”
Tan Xiaole was happy, "Daxi, you still don't have any memory, it's okay to find abuse." ”
Wen Tuoxi said with the strength of wine: "Your mouth is so unforgiving, is it because I am your rival?" ”
Guan Zhengxing smiled indifferently, rubbed the glass with his slender fingers, and said: "Only when there are emotional entanglements can you be called a rival in love, she doesn't like you, how can you be called a rival in love?" ”
Tan laughed: "Hahahaha...... Daxi, I'll see how you pick it up. ”
Wen Tuoxi almost choked to death, picked up the cup and said, "I'll punish myself with a cup." ”
Putting down the cup, Wen Tuoxi asked: "Tell me about your experience in the United States and how you spent this year." ”
Tan Xiao is also curious, this year he has almost no contact with the outside world during the training at the space agency, and occasionally looks at the information on his mobile phone, and finds that it is also sent by WeChat several weeks ago.
Guan Zhengxing said: "My current architectural design team is related to me going to the United States as an exchange student, at that time at Cornell University I also received some design drawings, one day I drove to deliver the drawings, came back to catch the rain, on the way met an old man dressed in shabby clothes, I stopped the car and let him get into the car, the old man said that his clothes were dirty, said that he would not get into the car, I just parked the car on the side of the road, opened the trunk, I sat in the trunk with him to avoid the rain." He is my current boss, Mr. Johnson. ”
"How did he know you were architectural?" Tan Xiao asked.
Guan Zhengxing said: "In addition to the design drawings in my trunk, it is a tool for drawing drawings, and he can see it at a glance." The chat also told him that I was from the architecture department of Cornell University, and that my name was still on the drawing tube. ”
Tan Xiao gave a thumbs up, "Master!" ”
Wen Tuoxi asked, "How did he know about your domestic affairs later?" ”
"Mr. Johnson happened to be the winner of the architectural design competition that my college roommate asked me to participate in, but I couldn't go abroad because of the lawsuit, so I asked my roommate to take me to receive the award, and asked him not to talk about me, but he still said it."
Wen Tuoxi nodded knowingly, "It's all your nobles." ”
"Well," Guan Zhengxing was also grateful to the beginning, "I am very grateful to them." ”
"Mr. Johnson gave me a contract and he could help me pay back the money, but in return, I would stay in his company until I paid it back. After arriving in the United States, I woke up every day to design architectural drawings, no entertainment and no leisure, I slept three or four hours a day, I wanted to pay off my debts earlier and return to China to find Xiaolu. ”
Despite the understatement of what he said, both knew that it had not been an easy year for him.
Tan Xiao raised his glass, "Cheers to us who are struggling." ”
Wen Tuoxi: "For us who insist. ”
Guan Zhengxing raised his glass and said, "For us who work hard." ”
After the crisp collision of the glasses, the three of them drank it all with their heads held high.
After three rounds of drinking, it was close to the early hours of the morning, Tan Xiao looked at Wen Tuoxi, who was already lying on the table, and smiled: "It's still the boss, but you can't drink us." ”
Guan Zhengxing held his forehead, he didn't drink less, closed his eyes and was dizzy, "Check out, drink again, I won't go back to the hotel." ”
Tan Xiao burped, "Hiccup...... I'll go. ”
As soon as he stood up, the person sat back down, and Guan Zhengxing held his arm, "I'll go." ”
He staggered all the way to the checkout, and asked the cashier to help call a substitute driver, but everyone was drunk and unconscious, and Guan Zhengxing asked the substitute driver to drive back to the hotel directly.
When he woke up the next day, Tan Xiao opened his eyes and found himself lying in Wen Tuoxi's arms, and he was instantly stunned: "it-"
He pushed the person away, quickly looked down at the quilt, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmm......" Wen Tuoxi rubbed his aching head and opened his eyes, "What are you doing, let me sleep a little longer." ”
The person turned over and fell asleep again, Tan Xiao scolded with a smile, "Pig! ”
When I turned my head, I saw that there was still one asleep on the sofa.
Guan Zhengxing sat up when he heard the voice, and looked at Tan Xiao sleepily, "Awake?" ”
Tan Xiao asked, "How did we come back last night?" ”
Guan Zhengxing said: "The substitute driver I was looking for." ”
Looking at his watch, it was almost half past eight, Guan Zhengxing began to change clothes and wash, Tan smiled and said, "You want to go?" ”
"The plane will return to Mangshi at 9:40."
Hearing this, Tan Xiao smashed the person next to him with a pillow, "Daxi, wake up, Guan Zhengxing is leaving." ”
Wen Tuoxi, who was woken up by Tan Xiao, hadn't sobered up until Tan Xiao opened the curtains, the sun was dazzling, and he squinted to get used to it, and said, "Where is this?" ”
Tan Xiao: "The hotel where Guan Zhengxing stays." ”
Wen Tuoxi asked, "When will he leave?" ”
Tan smiled and said, "The plane is nine forty." ”
"I'll go," Wen Tuoxi hurriedly dressed, "It's at least half an hour from his hotel to the airport, hurry." ”
The two packed up in a panic, and Guan Zhengxing stood on the porch with his suitcase clean and refreshing and waited for them.
At this point, the two in the bathroom are exposing each other's shortcomings.
Tan Xiao said: "When you were in high school, you couldn't get up early, and I was late." ”
Wen Tuoxi said: "You still have the face to say that I don't get drunk last night, but I can't get drunk last night?" ”
"Daxi, you open it, I'll brush my teeth."
"I'm going to the bathroom, you get out."
Guan Zhengxing lowered his eyes and shook his head, smiling helplessly.
Years later, we returned, still teenagers.
When they arrived at the airport, they were just in time to announce the boarding reminder, and after the three said goodbye, Guan Zhengxing stepped on the plane to Mangshi.
……
Landing at Mangshi Airport, it was already more than five o'clock in the afternoon, Guan Zhengxing took a taxi to report to Yuezhuang Resort Hotel. After the car drove into the resort, Guan Zhengxing called Renault and asked him to tell the team to go to the conference hall for a meeting in half an hour.
Shen Zilu was just walking back from work, and when she passed by the conference center, she saw the hotel waiter hurrying in with flowers and fruits.
The waiter greeted her with a smile when he saw her, "Manager Shen." ”
Shen Zilu said: "Have a meeting in the evening? ”
"Well, the temporary decision to hold a meeting is the design team arranged by Mr. Dong."
Shen Zilu didn't ask much, and after walking for a while, she heard a car coming behind her, she moved to the side of the road, but the car stopped behind her.
When I turned around, I saw Guan Zhengxing getting down from the taxi, paid the fare, closed the door, and said to Shen Zilu, "I'm back." ”
Shen Zilu: "......"
It's this line again, and I get upset when I listen to it.
Shen Zilu turned around and left, and Guan Zhengxing followed closely to catch up with her, "Thank you." ”
She said angrily, "I don't know what you're talking about." ”
Guan Zhengxing looked ahead, "Uncle asked me to come into the house and wait." ”
Shen Zilu was even more awkward, speeding up her pace, Guan Zhengxing's legs chased her effortlessly.
She turned her face, "Guan Zhengxing, are you annoyed?" ”
Guan Zhengxing's expression was full of nonchalance, "I don't feel annoyed with you." ”
"I didn't realize you were so thick-skinned."
"The more you spend time with me, the more you will find out more about me."
"Guan Zhengxing!" Shen Zilu stood still and looked at him angrily, "What are you?" What the hell are you going to do? ”
Guan Zhengxing put down his suitcase, "Am I not obvious enough?" I want to get you back. ”
Shen Zilu was angry: "But I don't want to be with you!" ”
"Really?" he asked. ”
She nodded heavily, "Don't show up in front of me, I hate you, I want to forget about you." Every time I see your face, I can think of the past nine years, and my efforts have been meaningless. ”
Guan Zhengxing lowered his eyes and swept the necklace around her neck, "You really hate me?" ”
Shen Zilu avoided his eyes, "Hmm." ”
"Don't want me to be in front of you?"
"Hmm."
"Is it pointless to see my face and think about the past nine years?"
"Yes."
He suddenly picked up the fishbone chain around her neck, "I hate that I still carry the necklace I gave you when I was in college." ”
Shen Zilu's body stiffened.
"Knowing that I'm standing outside the door, afraid that I'm going to be cold, persuade my uncle to let me into the house, that's what you hate?"
“……”
"The table is full of dishes that I love to eat, and that's what you hate?"
“……”
"Knowing that I have a bad stomach, I specially instructed my aunt to make the meals light and soft, this is what you hate?"
Shen Zilu couldn't hold back.
"I know you're not afraid to suffer with me, but I can't bear to let you live a hard life with me, so I ran away, and I admit that it was my cowardice and my fault. There is also the matter of divorce, the last straw that crushed you, I'm sorry, I'm so bad, I did something that you can't forgive, please give me a chance to atone for my sins, I will use the rest of my life to be good to you, please forgive, okay? ”
Shen Zilu shook his head.
Guan Zhengxing asked: "You still refuse to have a chance?" ”
"Why should I give you a chance?" Shen Zilu asked rhetorically, "The two of us have been chasing you since the beginning, you have always been a passive party, I have to listen to whatever you say, why should I listen to you after breaking up?" Yes, I admit, I haven't forgotten you, so what? I'm giving myself time to forget about you, and only by saying goodbye to past mistakes can I meet the right person. I just want to let go of the painful feelings in the past, I have been retreating, compromising, accommodating, and understanding in the relationship between us, what about you? What did you do? I've been following you for nine years, and even when I begged you not to leave and marry me, you didn't agree, and my nine-year compromise didn't get you back and bow your head once.
Guan Zhengxing, nine years, I fell in love with a cold-blooded animal. ”
Guan Zhengxing was dumbfounded, "......"
This is the most painful outburst she has since their reunion, and Guan Zhengxing has also faced one thing, perhaps, she will really leave.
It wasn't until Shen Zilu's back disappeared around the corner that Guan Zhengxing came back to his senses, the mobile phone in his pocket rang, he picked it up and said, "Got it, I'll be there in ten minutes." ”
