Chapter 80: What Am I?
After hesitating for a minute, Su Xiaoran finally waved a taxi and rushed to the place where Chenxi was drinking.
It was the place where the four of them had an 'embarrassing gathering' last time, in the early hours of the morning, only Chenxi and Qiao Xiaoyan were left sitting in the store, Su Xiaoran had already seen Chenxi when he was standing at the door, he was lying on the table, there were several bottles of wine on the table, and Qiao Xiaoyan was sitting beside him, wiping his face with a tissue from time to time.
"Hello, we're closed." The shopkeeper saw Su Xiaoran at a glance and said apologetically. Qiao Xiaoyan, who heard the voice, looked over, and in the dim light, the two women looked at each other, but Su Xiaoran could still see the cold light in Qiao Xiaoyan's eyes.
That's right, it's cold light. Qiao Xiaoyan was sitting next to her boyfriend, looking at her with a cold expression. As if to say what are you doing here, as if to say that he is mine now.
"I'm not here to drink."
Su Xiaoran then remembered that she wanted to go back to the boss, she walked straight in, looked at Chenxi who was lying on the table and lost consciousness, and asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”
"Not much, I'm in a bad mood."
"Chenxi, you get up!" Su Xiaoran tugged Chenxi's arm, and Chenxi slowly opened his eyes and saw Su Xiaoran.
"What are you doing here?"
Chen Xi's eyes turned from dark to bright, he sat up, and looked at Su Xiaoran with blank eyes.
"What am I here for? Is that all you have to say to me? What happened to you? Wasn't it okay when you left? Why are you in a bad mood, why don't you tell me? ”
"Xiaoran, don't do this."
"That's right, Xiaoran, Chenxi, if he doesn't tell you, he should have his own reason, so don't ask."
"Go home?" Su Xiaoran's tone was fluttering, looking at Chenxi with solemn eyes.
The scattered wine bottles and food on the table make people can't believe that this is Chenxi, who has always loved cleanliness and tidiness.
"Let's go home." Su Xiaoran took Chenxi's hand and wanted to leave, but unexpectedly, Chenxi pushed her hand away: "Leave me alone, OK?" ”
"Why?"
"Xiaoran, I want to be quiet."
Su Xiaoran looked at Chenxi in a daze, and after a few seconds, she let go of his hand and walked out of the restaurant quickly, but when she reached the door, she couldn't help but stop.
She looked up at the lonely bright moon in the sky, gritted her teeth, sat down at the door, and looked at Chenxi in the dark.
"Tatsukei ......"
Qiao Xiaoyan just wanted to speak, but Chenxi waved her hand to signal her not to speak.
There was a stalemate for half an hour, and in that half an hour, Chenxi drank another bottle of wine, Qiao Xiaoyan did not dissuade him, and Su Xiaoran, who was sitting in the distance, did not say anything, and quietly watched Chenxi put down the empty wine bottle.
Finally waited for Chenxi to walk into the bathroom, Qiao Xiaoyan came to Su Xiaoran: "Xiaoran, don't blame Chenxi, he is really in a bad mood, every year." Today is the death day of his parents, and I accompanied him to worship in the afternoon. ”
"What."
"Are you going together?" Su Xiaoran looked up at Qiao Xiaoyan, as a girlfriend, she didn't even have the right to know.
"In short, don't blame him, don't worry, according to the experience of previous years, he will be automatically fine in two days."
Chen Xi walked out, Qiao Xiaoyan walked over to support him who was swaying, and said, "You said you, why do you drink so much wine?" Xiaoran has been waiting for you here, Xiaoran, this is the car key, you drive him back, I can take a taxi myself. ”
Qiao Xiaoyan said and took out the key and handed it to Su Xiaoran.
"Let's send you, it's too late and it's not safe."
It was Chenxi's words, he snatched the key in Su Xiaoran's hand and took the lead in getting into the car, in just a few dozen seconds, Su Xiaoran was like a movie, and when she finally calmed herself down, she snatched the key in Chenxi's hand, and forcibly dragged him off the driver's seat and pushed him into the back seat.
Open the door, close the door, start the car.
It turns out that driving in the middle of the night is such a feeling, galloping, moving forward, racing against speed.
In the back seat, Chen Xi was probably uncomfortable after drinking too much, Su Xiaoran opened the car window, and Qiao Xiaoyan wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead with a tissue from time to time, gentle and considerate.
Su Xiaoran persuaded herself not to look in the rearview mirror, but if she didn't look, her rich imagination ran out to make trouble, which was even more uncomfortable.
Su Xiaoran forced herself to only look at the road ahead and the fleeting hallucination, she didn't know what she was crazy about, she drove the car to the door of Qiao Xiaoyan's house in the shortest time in history, turned her head and asked:
"Xiaoyan, is this here?"
"Xiaoran, thank you. When you go back, remember to make a cup of hangover tea for Chenxi, I'm sorry for you. ”
Qiao Xiaoyan smiled lightly, glanced at Chenxi again, and then got out of the car and waved goodbye.
On the way back, Su Xiaoran kept observing Chenxi in the rearview mirror, maybe because of the wind, he was a lot more awake, his eyes were open, but his eyes were a little dazed.
"It's home."
Su Xiaoran opened the door and let Chenxi walk in by himself. She was busy boiling water to make him lemon tea, but Chenxi just sat quietly on the chair, looking at Su Xiaoran's busy back and not speaking.
"Can you drink it yourself?"
Chen Xi took the cup and grabbed Su Xiaoran's hand at the same time.
"Why didn't you tell me." Su Xiaoran asked softly.
"Tell you what?"
"Your parents' business. Why exclude me? ”
"Who told you that?"
Chen Xi let go of Su Xiaoran's hand with a displeased expression.
"Does it matter? What I care about is why didn't you tell me? Chenxi, I'm your girlfriend, I'm willing to share the pain for you, but why are you hiding it from me? ”
"It's not something you should know."
Chenxi stood up and prepared to walk into the bathroom.
"What about Qiao Xiaoyan? Should she know? Is she the only one who is entitled to share your pain?! ”
"Don't be vexatious."
Chen Xi didn't even look back, walked into the bathroom and closed the door, Su Xiaoran heard the sound of flowing water.
She was anxious and sad, constantly walking back and forth in the house, Su Xiaoran didn't understand, since she was boyfriend and girlfriend, what could she not share?
If it's not needed, does that mean it's not that important?
Chen Xi has been reluctant to come out of the bathroom, although Su Xiaoran wanted to rush in and ask him what she was in his eyes, but she still resisted the impulse, it turned out that the last relationship did not leave her a profound lesson, and learning to endure was actually her most profound experience now.
Su Xiaoran felt that maybe the two of them needed to be quiet, and without waiting for Chenxi to come out, she left a note, and then left Chenxi's home.
Walking on the lonely streets, even the night breeze has become so lively. She was afraid of seeing Ji Ren, Su Xiaoran stopped at the door of a hotel, thought about it and walked in.
Fall asleep.
Fortunately, she turned the alarm clock, and when she went to work the next day, not only was she not late, but she also arrived a few minutes early, Su Xiaoran rushed into the office as usual, only to find that everyone's eyes were very strange when they looked at her.
Coming to the seat, May said with an exaggerated expression: "Something big has happened, big gossip, and it has spread in the company!" ”
"What's wrong?"
"Come here!" May looked around, for fear of being discovered, and after Su Xiaoran came over, she looked at Su Xiaoran with extremely sympathetic eyes: "Xiaoran, I said don't be sad about you, I also heard from others, I heard that your manager Chen is going to get engaged to Vice President Qiao!" ”
What the.
Su Xiaoran's legs were weak, she almost didn't stand firm, her heart was pounding wildly, and she looked at May: "Who did you listen to?" ”
"It's spread all over the company! Didn't the chairman of the board of directors say that he would temporarily give up the chairman's position to Manager Chen when he held a meeting two days ago? This is to train him, I heard that the two of them are families, and the chairman has long taken a fancy to Manager Chen, the fast son-in-law of Chenglong. ”
May's mouth is open and closed, and she can explain things clearly with just one sentence, and she seems to be explaining the beginning and the end without playing, and the painful details.
Su Xiaoran retreated to her seat, remembering all the things she had done last night, and why she asked Chenxi why she didn't let her real girlfriend go with him to worship her parents, and now it seems that she is the superfluous one!
Be sure to ask.
Su Xiaoran couldn't care so much, she rushed directly into Chenxi's office, pushed open the door, but saw three people sitting inside.
Chen Xi, Qiao Xiaoyan, and Qiao Jiang, the first chairman.
"Xiaoran, do you have something?" It was Qiao Xiaoyan who was asking, Chen Xi and Qiao Jiang looked at Su Xiaoran in surprise and indifference, and that expression was like saying how rude it was for her to break into her boss's office without knocking on the door.
"I ...... It's okay. ”
Su Xiaoran exited as fast as she could, then closed the door and quickly ran to the toilet.
She cried.
If Chenxi gave her an explanation or a reason, then she wouldn't be so sad. But Chenxi didn't, he just looked at her indifferently, treated her indifferently, and then let her listen to the rumors alone.
"Yo, who is this, why are you crying when you run to the toilet?"
Su Xiaoran wiped away her tears and saw Lia getting carried away in the mirror.
"Su Xiaoran, what's wrong with you? Did you see that Manager Chen and Vice President Qiao were getting married, and you were sad and wanted to cry? ”
"I don't understand what you're saying."
Su Xiaoran pushed Lia away and wanted to go out.
Unexpectedly, Lia's thin arms and legs were so strong, she blocked the door and said, "Don't go, I'm sympathetic to you, don't misunderstand, let's get it right now, no one can get Manager Chen." ”
"Get out of the way."
"Don't let it!"
Su Xiaoran simply pushed hard, but he didn't expect Lia to fall to the ground, and with a bang, Lia, who was still showy, lay flat on the ground like a down-and-out ugly duckling.
"Su Xiaoran! You dare to push me! ”
Lia struggled to get up, and Su Xiaoran was also frightened and wanted to help Lia up, but she threw her hand away.
"Someone's coming, I'm beating someone!"
Lia stood up by herself, Su Xiaoran saw a slight abrasion on the joint of her arm, and in an instant, several people came around at the same time, and after seeing the abrasion on Lia's hand, they all accused Su Xiaoran of not.
Not far away, Chenxi and Qiao Xiaoyan, who heard about the incident, also rushed over, and Su Xiaoran was surrounded by everyone, unable to argue.
