Chapter 26: Apology
Lu Xuyu looked back at Liao Yan expressionlessly, not knowing what moth he was going to come out of.
Liao Yan walked over to her and said with a sincere face: "I have a limited number today, can I take your car?" ”
Lu Xuyu was stunned, a little overwhelmed by his sudden seriousness, and nodded indifferently.
Liao Yan smiled at her seriously.
The red light in Lu Xuyu's heart immediately lit up, this person was a little wrong, it was definitely not as simple as wanting to take a ride!
Between the unpleasant conversation last week, the two of them tacitly maintained a quiet and peaceful atmosphere after getting into the car.
Lu Xuyu drove the car casually, but he couldn't stop thinking nonsense in his head, seeing Liao Yan sitting next to him honestly and silently, maybe she really thought too much, he just took a ride by the way, and had no other intentions.
"Don't you ask me where I'm going?"
Liao Yan opened his mouth coldly, startling Lu Xuyu, "Where are you going?" ”
Liao Yan looked at her pretended calm side face and slowly spoke: "I want to talk to you, is it okay?" ”
The fox's tail is finally revealed!
Lu Xuyu frowned slightly, glanced at him in surprise, and did not give him an answer immediately, but after repeated deliberation in his heart, he spoke: "Yes." ”
Liao Yan didn't understand, he just wanted to chat with her for a while, but she grinded for a long time as if she was facing a great enemy, this girl was too preoccupied!
Lu Xuyu, who was misunderstood by Liao Yan as too preoccupied, had a faint premonition that he might ask something, anyway, she didn't want to tell him, he didn't want to inquire about it.
Liao Yan: "You find a place, I'll invite you to dinner, and we'll talk while eating." ”
He wanted to say it in the car just now, but seeing Lu Xuyu's vigilant appearance and remembering the unpleasant experience last time, he thought of having a meal and chatting, which might make her let down her guard and be honest with each other.
Lu Xuyu happened to see a McDonald's in front of him, so he drove over.
Invite the girl to McDonald's? That's too much of a fall! At worst, you'll have to have a pizza.
Liao Yan hurriedly said, "Don't save me money!" As long as you don't eat the full banquet, I can afford to invite you! ”
"I want to eat Big Mac."
Lu Xuyu really didn't say anything polite to him, she hadn't eaten this bite for a long, long time, and she missed it a lot, so she took this opportunity to have a good time.
Liao Yan remembered that the last time he ate McDonald's with a girl, it was when he was in high school, and he didn't bring a girl, but a large group of men and women.
He sat down opposite Lu Xuyu with a tray and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I really can't get used to eating the pickled cucumbers in the Big Mac." ”
Lu Xuyu saw the spicy leg burger that Liao Yan bought, "I couldn't get used to it at first, but then I liked it." ”
"Why do you suddenly want to eat this? It doesn't really mean saving me money, does it? "Pick up his spicy leg burger and take a bite.
"I used to ...... I was very fat and liked to eat this junk food, and then I decided to lose weight and stopped touching it, I haven't eaten it in years. ”
Liao Yan looked at her in surprise, and couldn't imagine that the slender girl in front of her used to be a meat mound of more than 150 catties.
"Why are you so determined to lose weight?" Lu Xuyu had already answered this question, but Liao Yan still couldn't help but want to ask.
Lu Xuyu didn't think about it, and blurted out, "For the police academy." ”
"What else?" Liao Yan didn't believe that there was only one reason, and it was obviously not the real reason.
Lu Xuyu lowered her eyes, her expression was slightly unnatural, and Liao Yan waited patiently for her answer, or was silent.
"For one person."
Finally I said it!
Liao Yan saw a trace of sadness in her eyes, so she asked tentatively, "The boy you have a crush?" Want to wait for weight loss to confess to him? ”
"My crush?" Lu Xuyu looked at him inexplicably, the sadness in his eyes was gone, and he smiled disdainfully and said, "I guess I haven't been born yet." ”
Liao Yan: "......"
This girl can't have a good chat, as if she has a grudge against him!
Since she is unwilling to let down her guard, I am afraid that he can only throw an olive branch first.
Liao Yan said while eating: "My dad used to be a traffic policeman, he didn't want me to join his business, he wanted me to study hard, get a good university in the future, and find a 9-to-5 job. And I wanted to be a police officer at the beginning, but I didn't have as much perseverance as you, and I didn't study well, so I didn't even get on the edge of the police academy during the college entrance examination, and finally went to the police academy. After graduation, I worked at the grassroots level for a year, and then I was pulled by a friend and entered the city bureau. ”
Lu Xuyu didn't expect Liao Yan to talk about his experience, he didn't understand what he meant, and he didn't take a stubble, and waited quietly for his later words.
"After entering the city bureau, I was also a hairy boy who did miscellaneous things, and at that time, according to the words of Team Liang, I was like a shy girl, and I was serious about everything, not like now." As he spoke, even he couldn't help laughing, he was now a veritable demon king of the mixed world.
"Why has it changed?" Lu Xuyu asked curiously.
"I lost my best partner and almost lost my life because of a case, and that changed me completely, and from then on, I became a ...... It's like this. ”
Lu Xuyu saw that Liao Yan kept smiling on the corner of his mouth, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes, only sadness and sourness.
She knew what he said.
What he experienced, she also experienced a hundred times.
The sadness in Lu Xuyu's heart rolled out, she tried her best to slow down her breathing, tried her best to control her emotions, and didn't let tears pop out.
She didn't understand why he was telling her this, and now that his mood was messed up, she just wanted to leave right away.
Lu Xuyu looked down at the time uneasily, and casually made an excuse: "I still have some things, I want to go first." ”
Lu Xuyu was just about to stand up, but was pulled by Liao Yan, "What are you afraid of?" I'm just talking about my experience and not giving you an equivalent exchange. ”
Lu Xuyu froze in his seat, looking at him stunned, and suddenly felt that his reaction was a little too much.
Liao Yan looked at her abnormal appearance and couldn't help sighing, "Sometimes people blow up the thorns on their bodies like hedgehogs, not to hurt others, but to protect themselves. You're afraid of what I know, and unless you're willing to tell me, don't worry, I won't press you. ”
Liao Yan continued: "Before May Day, when the chapter bureau showed me your resume, I strongly refused, not because I had any opinions about you personally, but because I had some ideas about female policemen, thinking that they were not suitable to be criminal policemen, and sometimes they would drag their feet. You are studying technical investigation, and you can sit comfortably in the office and study technology, but you chose to come to our criminal investigation team, and stayed up with everyone for several days to find evidence, and in order to get the suspect to speak, come up with those methods...... I suddenly realized that I had been wrong. ”
"When I saw Yu Weiwei's photo that day, I suddenly thought of you." As he spoke, he lowered his head and smiled, "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else." I just feel that one innocent girl was killed while the other girl chose to be a police officer and eliminate harm for the people. None of this has anything to do with your family conditions, your watch, your limited edition running shoes and the Beetle, but I am touched that even if you have something that no one else has, you will not hesitate to choose a career as a police officer. So, I want to apologize to you for my previous prejudice against you and for all the things I said. ”
Lu Xuyu looked at him blankly, his expression was like being struck by lightning, thinking that he had auditory hallucinations. But when he looked at Liao Yan's sincere eyes, he was suddenly moved by him and couldn't speak.
