Chapter Ninety-Nine: You Deserve Better
Rainstorm.
The sudden rainstorm woke up the sleeping people, and the lightning and thunder made people uneasy, and the more noisy it was, the more lonely the night became.
"Have you really decided?"
Under the dim yellow light, Hua Yan looked at Chenxi's fair face and asked, the two sat opposite each other, there were a few bottles of soju and some peanuts on the table, and this sat for a whole night and never dispersed.
Seeing Chenxi's low eyebrows and silent appearance, Hua Yan poured a big sip of wine into her mouth, as if she was choking, so she kept covering her mouth and coughing, Chenxi handed him a drink, and said coldly: "There is no water at home, you will just do it." ”
The lightning struck the window, and several lights and shadows appeared in the room at once, but the shadow of the person seemed even more lonely. Chenxi got up, stood at the window and paused, and it took a long time to close the curtain and return to his seat.
"It's three o'clock, you can go into the house and sleep."
"What about you?" Hua Yan accidentally burped, he was already slightly drunk, he looked at Chenxi, he couldn't get any better, this room was full of alcohol.
"I still have to rush the information, you sleep, I'll call you tomorrow morning."
"Xiao Chenchen, are you really not thinking about it anymore? You know, as soon as tomorrow's meeting is over, nothing can change. ”
Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, and then ignored Hua Yan's words, got up straight, walked into the study, and turned on the computer. A flash of lightning sliced through the window of the study, followed by the cacophony of heavy rain on the window. Chenxi's eyebrows flickered slightly, and he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
Her appearance is still uninvited, and even more unscrupulous. In the past few days, in the dead of night, he felt that his heart was being pinched, and this pain was in stark contrast to his attitude towards her, and the more he was indifferent to her, the more the guilt haunted him and refused to let him go easily.
It's his fault.
The heavy rain is estimated to be unstoppable for a while and a half, and the noise is so palpitating. Chen Xi simply got up, closed all the windows, closed the curtains, turned on the music, put on earplugs, and just wanted to clean his ears.
In the living room, Hua Yan's corpse was lying on the cold floor, taking out his mobile phone and flipping it at will, he remembered that the night his sister left was also lightning and thunder, at that time, Chenxi was late because of the car accident, and he couldn't see Xiaomeng for the last time, and from then on, that regret was the cinnabar mole in his heart, which could not be erased.
In the same city, there are too many people with insomnia. After finally perfunctory her mother, Su Xiaoran became more and more sober.
She thought, if you brought all the people with insomnia together, how many people would there be? Thousands? Million? What is the reason for insomnia for everyone? Will anyone be so happy that they can't sleep?
If so, you're probably lucky!
Su Xiaoran always held the mobile phone in his hand, which is a habit in the past two years, Qiqi said, only people who have no sense of security will be like this.
A sense of security, Su Xiaoran's sense of security has long since become a loss from the time she lost Ji Ren, and now her soul is lonely and incomplete.
Ding dong.
There was new news in the middle of the night. Su Xiaoran clicked on it and saw that it was sent by Hua Yan.
It was a smiling face, Su Xiaoran found that she had been online, she immediately changed her invisibility, and she didn't know whether to reply to Huayan's message or not.
She and Huayan began to intersect because of Chenxi, and now that she and Chenxi have broken up, as a friend of her ex-boyfriend, should she pay attention to it?
A few minutes later, Hua Yan sent another message to Su Xiaoran: Knowing that you didn't sleep, you weren't afraid of such a heavy rain, right?
Sue: No.
Hua: What I said that day will always count, Xiaoran, no matter what happens between you, we will always be friends.
Su: Thank you, I'm leaving Chu Feng, and I'll leave the day after tomorrow.
Su Xiaoran thought about it again and again, and decided to delete this sentence, so far, it doesn't matter if you don't leave or not, right? If you tell him, it seems to be a bit of a deliberate pretension.
I'm going to sleep, you should go to bed early!
After Su Xiaoran sent the message, he turned off his mobile phone and pressed his face and forehead with a pillow.
The world is back to peace.
Early the next morning, there was a sound of rustling outside the house, Su Xiaoran got up, but saw her mother busy in the kitchen, Su Xiaoran was next to the door: "Mom, where is my dad?" ”
"Huh? Up? Mother squinted her eyes and smiled, Su's mother is a person who loves to laugh, her eyes narrowed into crescents when she laughed, Su Xiaoran liked to see her mother laugh the most, when she smiled, she felt that the world had become beautiful.
"Brush your teeth and wash your face, I cooked lily porridge and some pickles from my hometown. Your dad went out for a walk. ”
Mother brought a large Gu porridge to the table, rubbing her hands against her apron and said.
Su Xiaoran washed her face and brushed her teeth, her father also came back, the family of three sat together, and her mother opened up: "Xiaoran, what time do you get off work today?" ”
"I don't know yet, I may have to work overtime, why are you asking this?"
"Did you forget? I told you last night, your brother Wang Heng is free today, you can see each other. ”
Ahem.
Su Xiaoran didn't catch her breath, and her mother was busy patting her on the back: "Just eat, why are you in a hurry?" ”
"Who's in a hurry?" Su Xiaoran finally relieved herself, looked at her parents carefully, and found that they were all from the same thief's den.
"What Brother Wang Heng, I don't remember him for a long time, I don't see him!"
"No! Your dad managed to get in touch with someone, you have to meet! The mother slammed the bowl on the table, and Su Xiaoran almost didn't take the breath: "You still take the initiative to contact the family?" Will I have to drop the price? ”
"Xiao Ran! Just listen to your mother's words and meet with Wang Heng, Wang Heng is now a gold medal lawyer and is very busy, but as soon as he heard that it was you, he immediately agreed to meet, why do you say this? This shows that he still has you in his heart. ”
Father's words made Su Xiaoran speechless, yes, the so-called revolutionary friendship between her and Wang Heng began when she wore diapers and ended in the sixth grade of primary school, when Wang Heng's family moved to this city, and the two have never met again.
How can children understand any feelings?
Su Xiaoran sighed secretly, but she didn't want her parents to nag anymore, so she pretended to admit and went out without a few mouthfuls of food.
Hard-working office workers.
Su Xiaoran was crowded in a bus full of people, although she wanted to complain, but as long as she thought of the price that Teacher Hou had paid, she didn't dare to complain.
After eating a trench and growing wise, since that incident, Su Xiaoran has not allowed himself to lose his mind for anything.
Today's companies are strangely strange. Before going to work, after the four-eyed chicken Wang hurriedly ordered today's task, he left a sentence and said that he was going to a meeting and then disappeared, not only that, Su Xiaoran also saw that the managers of various departments were all rushing to the conference room, as if there was something particularly important.
"Have you heard? Big things are going to happen to the company, and I've heard that this time it's not just going to lay off employees, but I'm afraid that many leaders won't be able to keep their positions. ”
Geo's voice was very loud, and a few curious babies surrounded Geo, listening to her tell the rumors she had heard, and Su Xiaoran's ears unconsciously pricked up.
"Geo, how did you know that?"
"Then I don't need to ask, naturally Sister Lia told me, Vice Qiao is always her cousin, is there anything in the company that Sister Lia doesn't know?"
"By the way, speaking of Lia, what about her?"
Someone finally found that Lia was gone, and Su Xiaoran also looked around, but didn't find Lia's figure.
Didn't you go to a meeting too?
Su Xiaoran lowered his body to sort out the materials, and suddenly heard someone shouting "Lia is back", Su Xiaoran looked up and saw Lia walking into the translation department with a black face.
"Sister Lia, what's wrong with you?" Geo has always been Lia's follower, and he has to be even more attentive at the moment.
"It's gone, there's nothing."
"Gone? What's missing? ”
"Manager Chen is gone, he's going to Melbourne!" Lia roared loudly, and suddenly sat down in her chair, and actually threw herself on the table and lost her temper.
There was an uproar.
Didn't you say that Manager Chen was going to marry Vice President Qiao?
Didn't you say that Manager Chen was about to become the chairman of the company? What does it mean to go to Melbourne?
Su Xiaoran heard her heart chuckle, she slowly put down the things in her hand, and her breathing actually became cramped.
Chenxi, are you really leaving?
I thought that I would be sad after breaking up, but I didn't think that I might never see him again!
"Su Xiaoran, do you think this is true?" Although May is not an avid fan of Chenxi, she has also been obsessed with his beauty, and her heart is empty at this time.
"I'll go out for a while."
Su Xiaoran quickly ran out of the translation department and ran up to the third floor frantically, she came to Chenxi's current office, and there was no one.
The meeting should not be over yet.
Su Xiaoran looked around in despair as if he had lost something precious, wanting to remember the place he had been in.
Squeak.
He came in, still holding a folder in his hand.
Su Xiaoran turned her head and no longer cared about her self-esteem and face, she raised her head, her mouth twitched slightly: "You want to go?" ”
"You know it all."
Chenxi closed the door, but he didn't dare to walk forward to her, but Mu Ran stood at the door, without expression.
"How long is it going?"
"I don't know."
"I don't know, how long has it been, haven't you come back?"
Maybe it was because he heard Su Xiaoran's crying as he spoke, Chen Xi's hand holding the document became harder, and his long eyelashes flickered: "Xiaoran, don't do this." ”
"Don't want that? Don't pester you? Or, don't doubt you? ”
Su Xiaoran bit her lip tightly and turned her face away from the other side, not wanting him to see her uncontrollable tears.
Chenxi's steps seemed to move, but he didn't get too close to Su Xiaoran.
"You deserve better."
