Chapter 203: Trouble (2nd Update)
When Su Xiaoran returned home, she felt relaxed.
She figured it out and didn't force others, that is, she didn't force herself. She knew that her parents were still living in a corner of the city, and that was enough. As for the rest...... Let's talk about it!
It took her half a day to clean up the room, and then decided to go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables, Chenxi has been working so hard these days, the only way Su Xiaoran can think of to treat him is to cook a table of food for him with her own hands.
When she came to the supermarket, Su Xiaoran first went to the daily necessities area to pick out some things that were missing at home, filled a shopping cart full of half a car, and then she turned around and came to the place where she bought vegetables, planning to buy some things that Chenxi likes to eat and go back.
There are not many people, probably because of the cold weather, the supermarket seems a little deserted, and occasionally some people who come to buy vegetables also wrap themselves tightly.
Su Xiaoran is too, wearing a bloated cotton jacket on her upper body and a hat on her head, full of local atmosphere. She picked beef, some milk, coffee, and planned to stock up on some food at home.
After filling a car, Su Xiaoran called Chenxi.
"Come to my house for dinner in the evening."
"What, you figured it out, you want to bribe me?" Chen Xi's voice sounded very happy, and Su Xiaoran remembered what happened in his office today, bowed his head and smiled. Although Chenxi was not by her side, her face turned red.
"That's right, bribe you, and ask Mr. Chen to cover me in the future, I'll work hard to support my family."
"That's up to you." Chen Xi smiled evilly, and then his tone returned to normal: "I have a meeting in a while, try to go back as soon as possible." You wait for me at home, it's so cold, don't run around outside! ”
"How do you know I'm outside?" Su Xiaoran was surprised.
"I can hear the supermarket radio, what a fool!"
Su Xiaoran realized that there was a radio broadcast in the supermarket, her face was flushed for a while, and she didn't care about Chenxi scolding herself for being stupid, so she just replied to him and hung up the phone.
It's a good day.
Su Xiaoran looked at the shopping cart full of things, and suddenly felt content. Think about the past, when she was still single, she was often tired of being with Qiqi, and on weekends she would buy a lot of things and stock them up at home, and then she didn't go out for two days, sleeping and eating all day.
What a happy time. The corners of Su Xiaoran's mouth were slightly hooked, and she was a little thinking about Qiqi. So, while she was still in a good mood now, she immediately called Qiqi again, but as soon as the phone went out, she heard Qiqi's mobile phone ringing.
Not a ringtone on the phone, but a ...... The voice seemed to be right next to her!
Su Xiaoran looked around and saw a person who looked very similar to Qiqi's back near the snack area. Tall figure, shoulder-length short hair...... Strange, how could there be another familiar figure beside her?
Su Xiaoran was curious, so she pushed the car and leaned over, the mobile phone ringtone was getting closer and closer, louder and louder, but ...... Qiqi just doesn't answer the phone!
"Why don't you pick it up?"
Su Xiaoran immediately stopped, turned around, and pretended to buy things to prevent them from seeing her.
That's Hua Yan's voice, that's right, such a frivolous but at the same time semi-serious voice, how could Su Xiaoran hear it wrong?
Her heart beat violently: how could Qiqi be with Hua Yan? Could it be that they have ......
Qiqi has no reason to deceive himself!
I was secretly lost in my heart, and my phone hung up. Su Xiaoran heard Qiqi's voice: "It's too noisy here, go back and call her again!" ”
Su Xiaoran closed her eyes, although she wanted to go forward and greet them immediately, and then ask Qiqi in person, what the hell was going on.
But this period of training told her that the first thing she did when she encountered something was not to be impulsive, maybe ...... Qiqi is something unspeakable.
Su Xiaoran hurriedly went to pay the bill, and then left with a large bag of things.
Back at home, Su Xiaoran put her things on the ground, and she took off her shoes and lay on the sofa: she was a little listless, because Qiqi, she cared about Qiqi very much, so she cared if she lied to herself.
Later, Qiqi called, and Su Xiaoran pretended to be fine, waiting for Qiqi to lie to himself.
Qiqi said that she had been in meetings in the company all day, and she was so busy these days; Qiqi asked Su Xiaoran what was the matter with calling her; Qiqi also greeted the whereabouts of Su Xiaoran's parents, but she didn't say that she was with Hua Yan.
Su Xiaoran listened quietly to Qiqi's lying, feeling very uncomfortable. It turns out how tiring it is to have to pretend you don't know anything when you know it's a lie.
"Qiqi, it's okay, I just missed you. You must come to my house when you have time, I bought a lot of your favorite snacks. Su Xiaoran's voice was very floating.
Qiqi giggled happily: "You keep it for me, don't let Chenxi finish eating." ”
After a burst of politeness, the phone hung up.
Su Xiaoran hugged her mobile phone, looked up at the top of her head, and frowned: Why did Qiqi lie? Don't...... Just because she fell in love with Huayan but was embarrassed to admit it to herself?
Su Xiaoran imagined for a moment, on the basis of knowing her relationship with Huayan, if Qiqi wanted to be with Huayan, would she be willing? Isn't there a hurdle in her heart?
The answer is yes.
For the Hua clan, the most she can do is not hate.
Su Xiaoran decided to leave it alone, after all, Qiqi is free, and she hopes that Qiqi is happy.
Su Xiaoran turned on the music at home and began to prepare dinner in a soothing atmosphere.
She had already decided not to leave, not to leave here, and to return to Chenxing. Not for anything else, just because it is indeed a good platform, and she needs a good job to support herself, to support Teacher Hou and her parents, and she can no longer be as comfortable as before.
All the dinner is Chenxi's favorite food. There is a steak with black pepper, a soup, and a salad of vegetables and fruits. Su Xiaoran deliberately opened a bottle of red wine, which was a reward she gave herself when she had just received her first salary in her life.
Two years have passed, and today, she wants to open it and share her once ignorant self with important people.
When it was dark, it was more than six o'clock, and Su Xiaoran had already arranged the dishes neatly, and specially lit a candle, waiting for the arrival of Chenxi.
She was afraid that Chenxi was still in a meeting or driving and it would be inconvenient to answer the phone, so she sent him a text message, telling him not to worry, and waiting for him at home.
Su Xiaoran turned on the TV boredly, staring at the flickering TV screen in a daze, checking her phone every few minutes to see if Chenxi had any messages back.
Half an hour passed, and at seven o'clock, there was still no movement in Chenxi.
Su Xiaoran thought, it's all at this point, it shouldn't be a disturbance to call Chenxi, right?
So she dialed the phone, and after a few rings, she heard Lia's delicate voice: "Chairman Chen is busy now, I'm afraid I won't have time to answer your phone!" ”
When Su Xiaoran heard that it was Lia's voice, her good mood suddenly changed halfway, and she only asked coldly: "What about others?" Let him answer my call. ”
"I'm afraid not, I said he's busy. If you want me to say, Chairman Chen is such an excellent person, he should indeed be more busy with work things, instead of helping others deal with housework every day! ”
"Then may I ask a person like you who is not good, can only ask about other people's gossip, or squeeze a few words from others? That's a shame. ”
"Su Xiaoran, do you dare to contradict me?" Lia was in a hurry, and she was suddenly angry.
This is exactly what Su Xiaoran wants, anyway, she has endured it long enough!
"Let's do that then, Miss Secretary. By the way, I forgot to tell you that I will be back to work in the company soon, and I will have to ask you to take care of me when the time comes. ”
Su Xiaoran hung up the phone and didn't give Lia a chance to attack.
She believed in Chenxi, so even if he couldn't come back now, no matter what reason he had, or even if he didn't answer her call, she wouldn't mind. It's just that LIa......
Su Xiaoran suddenly thought of the first thing she had to do when she returned to the company.
Waiting is not a way, it seems that Chenxi will not come back so soon tonight, Su Xiaoran is when there is nothing to do, so he changed into a set of beautiful clothes, deliberately put on exquisite makeup, and went to the company to visit Chenxi.
The stars at night are still brightly lit, and large companies are like this, and overtime at night is a long-term thing. Standing at the door of the company, Su Xiaoran remembered the figure she had struggled in this company, and her heart was touched.
She walked in with her high heels, and who knew that as soon as she entered, she would see her former colleague May. May is the best relationship with Su Xiaoran in the translation department. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and when they met, May almost didn't pick up Su Xiaoran excitedly.
She took Su Xiaoran's hand and asked, "Where have you been these days?" ”
"It's a long story, I'll tell you slowly later."
"Later?" May was puzzled.
Su Xiaoran explained that she would come back to work soon, and then asked May where Chenxi was, May's face changed slightly, and she cautiously pointed to the conference room upstairs, and whispered: "When I was about to get off work, an old witch suddenly came, and at first glance she was a powerful character, by the way, Chairman Qiao is also here, Qiao Jiang!" ”
May's eyes were full of fear, and Su Xiaoran didn't have time to agree, so she hurriedly ran up. was stopped by Lia at the door of the conference room.
"The chairman is in a meeting now, and I don't have time to see anyone." Lia stretched out her hands to make a confession.
Su Xiaoran didn't have time to argue with her, so she pulled her face and said, "I'm not anyone, I'm his girlfriend." Get out of the way! ”
"Don't let it!" Lia raised her chin: "I'll tell you, my cousin is also inside, the chairman is probably in trouble this time, if he really loses this company because of you, I will remember you for the rest of your life!" ”
"Don't be in a hurry to post upside down, it will make people look down on you." Su Xiaoran said coldly, pushed Lia open and opened the door of the conference room.
