Chapter 60: Time Will Tell
Chen Xi realized that Qiqi deliberately took Su Xiaoran away, he was slightly stunned, but his surprised expression was not too obvious: "What do you want to say?" ”
"I just want to know how much you love Su Xiaoran."
"You're trying for me to prove that I love her in one sentence?" Chen Xi thought it was funny, he looked at Qiqi, and said slowly: "Don't speculate on my intentions, time will tell you the answer." ”
"Su Xiaoran was very hurt in the last relationship, and I don't want her to experience such pain again."
"That's because she didn't meet me. Qiqi, you better care more about yourself, the biggest problem of your two sisters is that they care too much about each other and ignore their own feelings. Feelings are not guaranteed with a single word, you are responsible for everything you do. ”
"What are you talking about?" Su Xiaoran carried a big bag of things in his hand and said to Qiqi: "I bought some casually, you can use them first, by the way, will Wan Lei come to see you at night?" ”
"He said to come later, you can put your things there first!"
Qiqi's expression was very unnatural. Su Xiaoran was wondering, and Chenxi stood up: "I should go, there is still some work that has not been completed, and I will call if there is something." ”
"I'll give it to you!"
Su Xiaoran hurriedly followed out and asked, "What did you say to Qiqi?" Why doesn't she seem very happy? ”
Qiqi is trying to divert her attention by caring about you, but in fact, she minds very much in her heart, and she doesn't mind that she is not loved. You take care of her more, call me if you have something. ”
Chenxi left a big question mark for Su Xiaoran, and then left. When Su Xiaoran returned home, Qiqi was playing a game with his mobile phone, and Su Xiaoran walked over: "Do you want to rest for a while?" ”
"Su Xiaoran, will you go shopping with me?" Qiqi put down his phone and said with a smile.
"You're pregnant now, how can you run around?"
"I don't, I'm going out, if you don't accompany me, I'll go out by myself!"
Su Xiaoran couldn't resist Qiqi, she simply packed a few things, and went out with Qiqi with a nervous mood.
This is the first time Su Xiaoran has accompanied a pregnant woman out, she has no experience, and she always feels that Qiqi may be in danger at any time.
The two came to the shopping mall, Qiqi was very happy, crazy to buy a lot of clothes, Su Xiaoran followed behind her, knowing that her happiness was disguised.
After shopping for an hour, Su Xiaoran took Qiqi's hand: "I'm too tired, let's go to the coffee shop over there and sit down?" ”
Qiqi finally compromised and put down his luggage, Qiqi shouted to order an espresso, but Su Xiaoran refused: "You are now pregnant, and you can't drink coffee." ”
"And you're still taking me to the coffee shop?"
"Waiter, bring her a cup of hot water, and then some dessert."
"Did you learn this domineering from Chenxi?" Qiqi rolled his eyes, reluctantly took the hot water, and sucked the straw desperately.
"Qiqi, what did you say to Chenxi just now?"
"I tried him for you." Qiqi blinked mischievously, and Su Xiaoran's curiosity was successfully aroused: "What did he say?" ”
"Why didn't you ask me what I asked?"
"Qiqi, we have been friends for more than ten years, I know what you told him."
Qiqi held his head with his hand and said with a smile: "Don't you say that I really forgot that we have known each other for so long, Chenxi He is not interested in your past, either he loves you too much, or he just doesn't love you." Su Xiaoran, Chenxi should have seen Ji Ren, right? ”
"I've seen it too many times." Su Xiaoran herself was also very surprised, from the day she and Ji Ren saw each other, it seemed that there was a shadow of Chenxi every time. She met Chenxi at Jiren's wedding and met her current boyfriend at her ex-boyfriend's wedding? Su Xiaoran lowered her head and smiled, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.
"Qiqi, I know you care about me as much as I care about you. We both care about each other too much, which is why we are suspicious and suspicious of each other's boyfriends. ”
"Why are you talking so sensational? Dislike! ”
Qiqi raised his glass: "I still have to add water!" ”
Su Xiaoran got up and went to refill Qiqi, taking advantage of the time when Su Xiaoran left, Qiqi called Wan Lei, twice, but no one answered.
Su Xiaoran came back, Qiqi put down his phone and smiled again.
"Silly Qiqi, smirking again!"
Su Xiaoran was happy to see Qiqi's smiling appearance, Qiqi slipped through the water, and said, "You haven't explained to me about Teacher Hou, how can you hide it from me?" ”
"I'm not mentally prepared, besides, if you know, doesn't it mean that Ji Ren also knows?"
Su Xiaoran understands Qiqi and hopes that she can understand her good intentions.
"Su Xiaoran, if Ji Ren insisted on being with you at the beginning, or if he didn't be with Han Xiya a year later, is it possible for you to be with him?"
Qiqi looked at Su Xiaoran distressedly, but Su Xiaoran just smiled indifferently and shook his head: "Qiqi, people can grow, in fact, Teacher Hou's matter is just a fuse, Ji Ren and I have already embarked on different paths before we broke up." He likes stability, and I yearn for adventure, and even if we stick together, one day we'll break up for something else. ”
"Su Xiaoran, I'm so sad about what you said."
Qiqi leaned on Su Xiaoran's shoulder and rubbed her thin shoulder.
On that day, the sun was just right, and the afternoon was just right.
Wan Lei called at nine o'clock in the evening, when Su Xiaoran was taking a bath, Qiqi answered the phone, Wan Lei first apologized to Qiqi, saying that he couldn't get out of the art exhibition, and he couldn't come over to see Qiqi tonight.
Qiqi didn't speak, it was the first time she hadn't please him for fear that he would be upset.
She hung up the phone quietly, then leaned back on the sofa quietly, touched her unformed belly with her hand, and smiled shallowly.
For several days in a row, Wan Lei didn't come to see Qiqi, when Su Xiaoran went to work, Qiqi was watching TV or reading books at home alone, she tried her best to give herself something to do, so that she wouldn't be cranky.
If Su Xiaoran asked, Qiqi lied that Wan Lei had come to see her during the day, and she didn't want Su Xiaoran to worry.
Su Xiaoran's side is not stable, paper can't contain the fire, since she and Chenxi established a relationship, there have been all kinds of bad rumors in the company, most of them say that she seduced her boss in order to get to the top and did whatever it takes.
Chen Xi ignored this speech, but Su Xiaoran was different, she was a delicate person, and she obviously felt that everyone's attitude towards her had changed a lot.
Some people will slap her up because of this, such as the two seniors who had nothing to do with themselves on the last business trip, after knowing the relationship between Su Xiaoran and Chenxi, they were as good as white to her, and they would often compete to help her do things.
However, Lia and Geo are not so easy to talk to, Lia is a straightforward girl, this Su Xiaoran can understand, but she still can't stand her white eyes and all kinds of cold words every day.
Relatively speaking, only May is still the same, talking about her gossip every day, and making some pranks every day when Su Xiaoran is working hard.
Su Xiaoran accepted it all, including Qiao Xiaoyan's strangeness.
Qiao Xiaoyan drank a lot of wine and said a lot of blessings during the dinner that night, and Su Xiaoran was very grateful to her. When they met in the company in the past few days, the two of them were very polite, nodding and smiling, neither strange nor familiar.
Su Xiaoran talked to Chenxi about this trouble, she felt that she was too selfish to do this, but Chenxi just asked her to move forward bravely and not think about other things.
"I've finally tasted the bitter fruits of office love." Su Xiaoran pouted, feeling more tired from work, it used to be because of work, but now it is because of delicate interpersonal relationships.
"Wouldn't that be better?" Chen Xi closed the computer and walked towards Su Xiaoran's red lips.
"Be careful of being seen!" Su Xiaoran pushed him open, the glass window of Chenxi's office was transparent, although it was time to get off work, it was not ruled out that someone might see it.
Chen Xi tidied up her clothes, as if she wanted to see her through: "Afraid of being seen is a kind of lack of confidence in itself." We are above board, what are you hiding? ”
"Seriously, don't you feel guilty about Xiao Yan?" Su Xiaoran bit her lip lightly, and Chenxi's eyes dimmed.
"All I can give her is friendship."
"Who's talking about me?" Behind him, Qiao Xiaoyan pushed open the door and stood outside the door, smiling brightly.
Su Xiaoran hurriedly stood up: "Qiao is always good!" ”
"Xiaoran, you are from Chenxi now, don't always be so polite to me."
Qiao Xiaoyan walked in and said to Chenxi: "I just received news from the headquarters, saying that there is a drinking party in the evening, and all the senior executives of the company will attend, and it will take up your love time." ”
"Can I not go? You know I hate drinking parties. ”
"No! A few customers want to see you by name, and you are not allowed to run away! ”
Qiao Xiaoyan's eyes were a little ambiguous when he looked at Chenxi, and Su Xiaoran felt very uncomfortable.
"Why don't I go out first, and you can talk?"
As soon as Su Xiaoran walked out of the door, Chen Xi stopped her: "Let's go together, shall we?" You accompany me to the reception. ”
Su Xiaoran turned around and saw the surprise in Qiao Xiaoyan's eyes.
"Xiaoran, you can also go together, there are a few foreign customers, and they may need to translate at that time."
"No, I have to go home to take care of Qiqi."
Su Xiaoran closed the door softly and slipped away.
"What's wrong with Qiqi?" Qiao Xiaoyan still remembers Qiqi.
"It's hard to say, what time does the drinking party start?"
Chenxi sat down, spread out the computer and continued to work.
"At half past seven, I'll take your car then." Qiao Xiaoyan pursed her lips and went out, she knew Chenxi's habits, he didn't like to be disturbed when he was working.
Su Xiaoran returned home, but saw her parents carrying a large bag at the door of the house.
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?" Su Xiaoran hurriedly ran over, but fortunately they hadn't opened the door yet.
"Your dad said he was going to come and see you, and stay for a while." Mother said with a smile, Su Xiaoran knew that they were drunkards and didn't mean to drink, so she blocked the door: "No, you go back!" ”
"Hey! How can you, a child, keep your parents out? ”
Father Su pulled Su Xiaoran away and asked, "To be honest, is there any situation?" ”
"Oh Dad, it's really not, I said it's inconvenient to live in Qiqi."
"Seventy-seven? Then you have to look at her. The father said and took out the key and opened the door, Qiqi, who heard the sound in the inner room, thought that Su Xiaoran was back, she opened the door and saw Su Xiaoran's parents.
"Uncle and Aunt......"
Qiqi opened his mouth, and the apple in his hand fell to the ground.
