Ah Hong's invitation made me very embarrassed and very surprised.

I don't know when she came to the GD Building, and I don't know when she sat quietly around us.

We haven't had any contact since coordinating the resumption of work at the mining site and the unpleasant separation at the EPA building.

In fact, from the bottom of my heart, I would rather be at peace with her and never have a chance to see her again.

However, the world is so small, and the opportunities are so coincidental.

Lin Xue'er and I went out for tea in such a short time, and we were able to meet her.

The knot between Ah Hong and me has not yet been untied, and the conflict will intensify and escalate again at any time, I know this.

Now that Lin Xue'er and I are close together, there is no doubt that Ah Hong has been in full view, which is undoubtedly another salt on the wounds of our friendship that have completely collapsed.

I don't know what she's going to say or even do to me in this environment.

What makes me even more worried is that I can't give a reasonable explanation for Lin Xue'er's past with Ah Hong.

If I accept her invitation, I must make my relationship with Ah Hong and Lin Xue'er clear, which is a very troublesome and headache.

The waiter didn't know what was going on in the slightest, and he pointed in front of me in the direction of Ah Hong's seat, which made me feel like I was breaking down.

I stood up very reluctantly, and the grinding appearance aroused Lin Xue'er's vigilance.

She sat across the table and looked at me and the waiter standing next to her in surprise, and then looked in the direction of Hong's seat.

I'm not good at lying, and I'm in a dilemma for a while.

I had to say to her curtly: "The person who called me over there is a junior high school classmate, I haven't seen him for a long time, I'll go over and say a few words and come back." ”

Lin Xue'er's eyes became sharp due to sensitivity, and she glanced at me, obviously a little unhappy.

She was noncommittal and took a sip of tea from her teacup.

I stubbornly walked over to Ah Hong's seat and greeted her politely.

Hong's expression can't be described in words.

Her face was cloudy, and she ignored me and gestured for me to sit across from me.

I sat down, feeling nervous, not knowing what was going to happen in a moment.

Ah Hong didn't look at me head-on, her face twisted to the other side, and after a while, she turned her head, her eyes shining, staring at me fiercely.

"Who's that girl you're with?"

There was a slight tremor in her voice as she asked.

"It's my girlfriend." , I answered honestly.

Her face turned pale instantly, and she picked up the teacup on the table with her trembling right hand and took a sip of tea.

After a long silence, she sighed softly.

"Some time ago, I experienced a lot of unpleasantness, so what I said to you was a little excessive, and I hope you can forgive me if it hurts you."

With that, the corners of her eyes were moist, and her heart seemed to be making countless waves, trying to calm herself.

"It's nothing, in fact, you're right, don't think too much, I'm never angry with you." Her unusual reaction made me a little flustered.

Think about it carefully, the matter between me and Ah Hong, I have too many faults, any reaction and excessive words from her are normal, and I don't even have any reason to blame her.

It's just that the problems surrounding the mining farm, as well as various external interventions and other confusing events have been exposed recently, which is puzzling, and I want to uncover the mystery, and it will take some time.

Hong claimed that I had given up everything, and it had always worried me.

Sometimes loving and being loved are blind, and the great damage caused by blind love has always made me feel uneasy.

I don't know how my unintentional actions have had a negative impact on her emotional world.

I looked at her quietly, and I had an indescribable feeling in my heart.

"She... She must be good, right? Ah Hong avoided my eyes, lowered her head, her face twitched violently, her voice was hoarse, and her emotions were a little out of control.

"Who? That girl? I glanced at Lin Xue'er in the distance, who was looking at us uneasily.

Hong nodded.

"A woman who can make you recognize as a girlfriend must be outstanding!" She picked up the teacup again, and her whole hand shaking the cup slightly.

"Well, she's fine." , I think Lin Xue'er is really good, and even feels that I am not worthy of her at all, it is rare for a girl to be affectionate to me.

It feels like déjà vu for someone who loves me to see that I already have someone I love.

I instantly understood Ah Hong's emotions at this time.

Just like how I felt when I met Ding Ling and Boss Wang in a small southwest town.

It's heartbreaking to see someone you love and someone talk to me.

The pain is beyond human reach.

I thought I had to leave right away.

Only in this way will it be avoided that the incident will end more difficultly.

"Are you leaving?" When Ah Hong saw my posture of getting up to leave, her expression was very desperate.

"Yes, she and I have been here for a long time, and we are leaving." , I said softly.

"Okay, you go, let's go." , Ah Hong whispered weakly, as if talking to herself.

I stood up and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute, I'll tell you two things." , Ah Hong's face was pale, but she regained her composure.

"Say it." I looked at her and waited for her to speak.

"First of all, don't come to Guangtou Building in the future."

I didn't say anything, wondering why she made this request.

"The second thing, I want the annuity of your mining farm to be three million, you go back and discuss it with your partner, implement it within a month, and I want to use the money now."

The second thing she said, although it is a little difficult for Dazhifu Company at present, but since it has been promised a long time ago, Dazhi and I have also made preparations to fulfill it within a month, which is difficult, but it can be bearable.

I nodded in agreement.

"Won't you ask me why I'm taking your money?" , Ah Hong's tone was a little strange.

"No, we should." , I said lightly.

I thought, what bullshit reason do you need for money, this matter, from the beginning of Dazhi to inform me of the result, I have been trying to figure out what happened, but I still haven't figured it out, and I have rejected her more and more because of this, not because she has a bad attitude towards me during this time.

People will change, obviously, she is no longer Ah Hong for more than ten years, and this kind of thing is completely out of my control.

Money is the most hurtful thing, and sometimes, the intervention of money can make the emotional world more and more complicated.

"I borrowed this money from your mining farm temporarily, and I will pay you back in half a year." , her tone was a little weak and jerky.

"It's okay, you just use it, although the benefit of the mining farm is not high for a year, but this money can still be taken out." , I'm telling the truth, comforting her, she can let me continue to work, this order is worth three million, and there will be income when I start working, otherwise where will the money come from.

Hong was silent again for a long time.

"Let's go."

"I'm fine."

I turned to leave, and heard a long sigh from the woman behind me.

Walking quickly back to Lin Xue'er's desk, I signaled to leave as soon as possible.

Lin Xue'er studied me suspiciously for a long time, and began to pack up her things slowly, glancing at Ah Hong from time to time while cleaning up.

After I settled the account and dragged her downstairs, I escaped from Ah Hong's gaze, feeling a sense of relief.

Walking downstairs, Lin Xueer kept asking.

"Who is she?"

"What did she talk to you about?"

"Why are you in such a hurry to pull me away after talking to her?"

"I don't think she's familiar, yes, I think I've seen her somewhere."

She chattered like a frightened fawn.

Nowadays, she pays special attention to the people I interact with and the things she does.

I understand this, women are suspicious.

After all, we have confirmed the boyfriend and girlfriend relationship, and we should not hide anything from each other.

Thinking of this, I glanced around, gently took her into my arms, kissed her forehead, and comforted her that the person I had just met was an ordinary friend.

She looked at me a few more times to see if I was lying, and finally reluctantly believed me.

This matter has finally come to an end.

This is what I like the most about Lin Xueer, who is rational and empathetic.

It's still early, but it's almost time for lunch.

I looked at Lin Xue'er and wanted to take her to eat something special, I drank and ate at home last night according to her wishes, but it was still a little shabby as a celebration banquet after all.

Today's compensation opportunities are very rare.

"Miss, shall we eat something special at noon?" , I proposed.

"Yes, yes." , she walked out of the Guangtou Building, she had been preoccupied, a little listless.

"Why don't we go to the café from last time?" She thought about it for a while, and seemed to remember the place where we first ate and was impressed.

"It's so unpalatable." , for the first time, I protested against the suggestion of a beautiful woman.

"The steak is made like a leather band." , I was unhappy, the last dining experience has always been nostalgic.

"Well, it's nice and quiet, but the food is really not very good." Lin Xue'er immediately echoed my opinion.

"Why don't we go to the bald all-pig banquet experience store?" , she made another suggestion.

The county is not big, I have been to the whole pig banquet experience store with Dazhi, the location is remote, but the taste is really not bad, but I didn't know that the store was also a bald business. It seems that the influence of bald heads is already everywhere in the county.

Ah Hong didn't allow me to go to the Guangtou Building, I haven't figured out the reason, to investigate the bald thing, it seems that I don't necessarily have to go to his headquarters at the moment, and the whole pig experience store is also a good place to start.

The location of the experience store is on the edge of the county, which is completely idyllic and quiet.

I agreed with Lin Xue'er's suggestion, and we drove and chatted while walking, and we arrived at the store in a short time.

The business here and the Guangtou Building are completely different styles, and the experience hall is deserted and bleak, which is very different from the magnificence and ostentatiousness of the building.

We parked the car and walked to the store and sat for a long time, but no one came up to take care of us.

It's still early, and there are no customers in the store yet.

Lin Xueer and I found a corner near the window, and we were not in a hurry to order, but snuggled up to each other and looked at the scenery outside the window.

At the end of the wheat field, it should be the source of the moat, the embankment is not high, you can see the sparkling water, and a few unknown water birds occasionally fly on the water surface, adding a bit of vitality to the dreary summer day.

After a while, at noon, the shop gradually became more and more crowded.

A waiter came to order, and although the waiting time for the meal was long, the food was served very quickly.

It seems that Lin Xueer and I have found the right place, the dishes are very delicious, all kinds of pork methods, cooked and stewed, dazzling, rare is that the ingredients are new and tender, and the freshness is a must.

When I was about to finish eating, Lin Xue'er snorted at me and pointed to the location of the door.

I followed her pointer, and four or five people walked in the doorway.

I know the first bald man with a big waist, the young hero I met for the first time in the grove during the Yellow House period, it is undoubtedly bald, there is a very bewitched woman on his left, very tall, very thick makeup, with a pair of glasses, plump, the appearance has not changed much from the youth, and it is not a stranger, it is Xuan, who has visited the home with me and Ah Hong, a handsome young man on the right, not tall, very neutral in appearance, white skin, tied with a ponytail, according to Ding Ling's statement in the past, I guess it should be the military master moonBehind them, there was also a man of small height, with a public face, a gloomy expression, a sad face, looking very melancholy, I had never seen it, and I did not know it.

Lin Xue'er whispered to me, "See? These people are Baldhead, Xuan and Moon. ”

I nodded, keeping my head down.

Decades have passed, and the bald head and Xuan probably don't remember me at all, they walked in the door, glanced at the hall, and walked directly to the back hall surrounded by everyone.

The hall was full of three or five tables of guests, eating quietly, and they walked by causing a slight commotion.

The conversation was soft, but audible and clear.

"That bald head is the big boss here."

"The one in the back is the leader of the National Development and Reform Commission, and he is their guest."

"Did you see that beauty? That's the hostess. ”

The sound of discussion reached my ears and made my heart move.

Dazhi said that Ah Hong's husband is from the National Development and Reform Commission.

If this person is really Ah Hong's husband, it means that their family's business relationship with the bald head should be unusual.

It is definitely not a coincidence that he met Ah Hong in Guangtou Building and his husband in the Quanzhu Banquet Experience Hall.

Xuan and Ah Hong have a good relationship, I have known this for a long time.

Lin Xue'er and I were set up by the military advisor Moon, and it is not difficult to guess the related people, and the truth seems to be right in front of you.

For a while, I thought about it, and I forgot the braised pork piece that was caught in my mouth.

"Alas, what god do you go, what do you think?" , Lin Xue'er smashed me with a powder fist and pulled me back from my thoughts.

"It's nothing, I'm excited to see such a big boss and such a shocking style." , I quipped.

"You can pull it down, what are you excited about looking at a bald head, you won't be excited to watch other people's proprietresses, right?"

She pursed her pink lips, really jealous.

Looking at her serious appearance, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

At this moment, the hall foreman trotted in, stood on the podium in front of the hall, cleared his throat, and said to all the diners.

"Well, that, inform you of a good news, just now the boss came, looked at today's attendance, our branch is less crowded, the boss feels that it does not meet the minimum requirements of the experience hall, so it was decided that no matter how much you consume today, all the orders are free, welcome everyone to bring more guests to our store next time, finally, I wish you a happy meal."

The ingredients were great, the meal was indeed enjoyable, and there was an unexpected free surprise.

Time.

The room was filled with cheers.

Local tyrants are capricious, and the gameplay is different from ordinary people.

I muttered to myself.
