Chapter 3: Just Unfamiliar Strangers

When Su Li returned to the rental house, it was already nine o'clock in the evening, and Shi An had already gone to sleep, but fortunately, her friend Tang Youyou was still waiting for her.

"Didn't you say you'd be back soon, why did you come back now, Shi'an slept and what about the cake?" Tang Youyou saw her come back empty-handed and hurriedly asked.

Speaking of the cake, Su Li remembered that the cake might have been left in the hotel, and she never had the courage to go back to get it, and now she went out to buy it, and it was estimated that it was already closed.

"I forgot, I'll make up another one for Shi'an tomorrow, it's too late, you have to go to work tomorrow, go back early to rest, thank you today."

Physically and mentally exhausted, she didn't want to say a word about what happened tonight, let alone what could she do if she said it?

"What's wrong with you, why do I feel like something is wrong with you today, uncomfortable?" Tang Youyou raised his hand to test Su Li's forehead, to see that she was listless, don't have a cold and fever.

"What's going on!" Brushing away the broken hair on her forehead, Tang Youyou saw the redness and swelling on Su Li's forehead.

Su Li remembered that there was a wound on her forehead, and she subconsciously reached out to cover it, but this time Tang Youyou saw the redness and swelling on her wrist.

"Tell me honestly, where the hell have you been tonight? And this injury, who got it?! ”

Tang Youyou has a very loud voice, according to her troubled method, if she wakes up Shi'an, the neighbors will also be woken up.

"You be quiet, don't wake up Shi'an, I'm hurt...... It was accidentally fallen, it's okay, just rub some medicine......"

"Falling? Hehe! Tang Youyou was simply laughed angrily, and helplessly held his forehead, "Ah Li, do you think I'm so easy to deceive as a three-year-old child?" Tell me, how did you break your fingers so that I could learn how to wrestle like this? ”

Su Li knew that he couldn't hide his injury from Tang Youyou, who knew her very well, the two of them had been friends since college, and both of them knew each other very well.

It's just that she should tell her about meeting Zhou Hetang?

Seeing that she was still ready not to say anything, Tang Youyou was angry that she hated iron and steel, and she circled around the room angrily, and finally took out a killer weapon and threatened, "If you don't say it, I'll wake up Shi'an now, I'll let him come and ask you, let him see you like this, cry for you, don't you feel distressed?" ”

Sure enough, she knows her best, Shi'an is her life, it doesn't matter how wronged she is, she is reluctant to let Shi'an worry about herself.

"Don't go, I say ......"

"I saw him today, something unpleasant happened."

"He? Who is it? Tang Youyou didn't realize who this "he" was for a while, turned his head to look at Su Li, and asked with his eyes if he was the person he thought.

Seeing her nodding, Tang Youyou immediately exploded, "So, all these injuries on your body were caused by him?!" ”

"You be quiet, in case Shi'an wakes up, how can I explain to him." Su Li is also very helpless, Shi'an is obviously only a five-year-old child, but sometimes, he understands much more than children of the same age.

With such an obvious injury, it is not easy to fool him.

"What the hell is going on, how did the good guy meet him?" Tang Youyou was puzzled, although he often saw the news about Zhou Hetang on the TV, but when he really came into contact with it, it was another strange feeling.

After that, Su Li told him how he met Zhou Hetang, but he omitted the part on the bed.

After hearing this, Tang Youyou immediately rushed to the kitchen, pulled out a sharp fruit knife, gritted his teeth and said, "The old lady went to castrate him!" ”

"Yoyo, forget it, this is what I owe him, and I can understand him if he treats me like that."

"It's just that all my guilt about him is gone after the words he said today......"

"In the future, he and I will just be unfamiliar strangers."

Listening to Su Li's words, Tang Youyou felt very uncomfortable in his heart, if you want to say who knows the relationship between Su Li and Zhou Hetang best, it is naturally Tang Youyou.

When he was in college, Zhongli was the top student in Class F, but Zhou Hetang was the crush of all the girls in the school.

From acquaintance to acquaintance, and then to love, Tang Youyou saw the hardships along the way.

Now that she said this, maybe she really forgot about Zhou Hetang so that she could be happy.

The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention all the topics about Zhou Hetang, Xu was too much of a movement, and Shi'an, who had been sleeping peacefully, was woken up, but he didn't cry or make trouble.

I put on my pajamas, rubbed my sleepy eyes, and came out and asked, "Mom, are you back, are you hungry, I'm going to boil you an egg?" ”

Shi'an was very well-behaved, and automatically didn't mention the cake, but cared about whether Zhongli had eaten.

Seeing that his son was so sensible, Zhong was soft, turned all his grievances against Zhou Hetang into a ball of soft water, and took Shi'an's little hand very dotingly, kissed it and laughed, "Mom is not hungry, but Mom forgot to buy a cake for Shi'an, make up one for our little Shi'an tomorrow, okay?" ”

Children, all desserts are not resistant.

Who knows, Shi'an shook his head firmly, "Don't, that thing is sweet and greasy, Shi'an doesn't like it." ”

In fact, he didn't like it, but he knew that he didn't have a father, and it was not easy for his mother to earn money to support him and provide him with education.

As for the cake, it doesn't matter if you eat it or not.

Of course, he didn't tell Zhongli about this idea, because he knew very well that if he said this, Zhongli would feel very useless and not give him what he needed.

Seeing Shi'an talking like a little adult, Zhongli was amused by him and couldn't laugh or cry.

A few people frolicked for a while, it was almost ten o'clock, and Shi'an had to go to school tomorrow, so he took him to sleep.

***

At night, the air is filled with a sultry humidity, like fog.

The faint light of the lighthouse in the distance made the night even quieter.

A burst of cicadas sounded in Zhou Hetang's ears from time to time, and in this scene, he was like a god standing in the dark.

Li Di stood in the dark corner, and through the gold-rimmed eyes on the bridge of his nose, he could see Zhou Hetang's handsome and resolute silhouette.

It's just that the low air pressure emanating from his body shows that he doesn't want anyone to get close at this time.

Li Di knew that this night was destined to be another sleepless night.

After a long time, Zhou Hetang, who was standing on the balcony and thinking, exhaled, and his index finger tapped the edge of the balcony again and again, as if he said to himself, "Since you left, why did you suddenly appear in front of me again?" ”

Naturally, no one can answer this question.

After a long time, he tilted his head slightly, and only gave Li Di a good-looking side face, but he was very cold, and said undoubtedly, "Check, you can find out all her information over the years within an hour!" ”

An extremely charming magnetic voice came out of his mouth, but Li Di knew that he was not joking.

"Yes"

After Li Di went out, Zhou Hetang was the only one left in the dark room, and the cold air outside was not as good as the cold air emanating from his body from the inside out.

What has been lingering in his mind is Su Li's aggrieved eyes full of tears, he should actually hate this woman, hate his original determination.

But when he saw her aggrieved and even resentful eyes, Zhou Hetang couldn't be tough on her.

***

Early the next morning, Su Li got up early to prepare breakfast, and the events of that day were completely forgotten by her, and after breakfast, Shi'an was sent to school, and then took the No. 15 bus to the company, fortunately, the time she went to was just right every time.

Today is Monday, and it is inevitable to have a morning meeting every Monday, but today is a little different from usual.

Because, Huang Changren hasn't come yet!

"Ah Li, why hasn't the boss come here today, the morning meeting time has long passed, it won't be that I was tired last night and couldn't get up, hehe......"

Colleague Zou Fang came over and said jokingly.

In the hearts of these people, the boss thinks about nothing more than things between men and women.

Therefore, it is not once or twice that such a joke is made, and Su Li is no longer surprised.

Hearing this, Su Li glanced down at the watch on his wrist, it was already half past nine, and this time had not yet come, so maybe the morning meeting would not be held today.

Just thinking like this, the glass door not far away was pushed open, and the person who came was Huang Changren, who was talking about Zou Fang.

It's just that looking at his panting appearance, I'm afraid something is wrong.

"You all stop what you are doing first, and when a big customer comes to discuss cooperation, you all give me a hundred and twenty points of seriousness, don't let the customer find you lazy."

Huang Changren hurriedly finished saying this, turned to look at Su Li, who was busy cleaning up the table, pointed at her and said, "That Su Li, Lao Yang's family has something to do today and asks for leave, you go and make coffee, people will be there soon!" ”
