Chapter Seventy-Seven: Truth or Truth
……
The cat's meow that came from nowhere, poignant and sharp, suddenly woke up Xia Nianzhi, who was deep in memories.
Here, Xia Nianzhi, who came back to his senses, took a sip of orange juice and leaned on the back of the chair to ease his mind; Over there, after Lu Can's suggestion to play the game, he didn't rush to ask Xia Nianzhi to give an answer, he stirred the coffee casually, his expression didn't know when, he had already regained his warm color, and he was looking at Xia Nianzhi gently.
Xia Nianzhi rubbed her temples, impatient to the extreme, so, what did she touch this year? Why do people have to come and play games with her, or are they all truth-telling games??
Don't these people know that there is such a thing as truth or falsehood, 'no evidence, it all depends on mood'?
Xia Nianzhi, who had finished slandering, held the orange juice, turned his head lazily, and looked at the slope at the end of the alley from a distance, but suddenly felt strange, a Ferrari suddenly stopped at the slope, and the body was extremely bright red, and it was extremely out of place around the old alley with green bricks and gray tiles and moss-mottled walls.
The car, when she came, was not there yet, but it was somewhat familiar.
Xia Nianzhi thought of a possibility, suddenly changed his mind, and said, "Three years have passed, and it's time for the rules of the game to change. ”
"How?" Lu Can was full of confidence, and seemed to have already decided that Xia Nianzhi would agree to play this game, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Xia Nianzhi's face was as usual, but he was interested in Lu Can's in his heart, and he had more fears, so when he spoke, he couldn't say anything: "Open the skylight and say bright things, there is no need to play such a name, we each have two opportunities to ask questions, and answer them with our conscience." ”
Today's meeting between him and Xia Nianzhi is just the beginning.
Since it is a pre-dinner dish, it does not need to have much grand taste bud stimulation, appetizer, it is enough.
Thinking of this, Lu Can agreed, stared at Xia Nianzhi, his eyes burned, and said, "Lady first, please." ”
……
Temptation is Lu Can's proposal, and attempting to take risks is also Lu Can's plan, Xia Nianzhi will naturally not show mercy.
She knocked on the wall of the cup again and again, making a tinkling sound, which matched the frequency of her heartbeat, calm and steady, and did not seem to cause any emotional fluctuations because of this game.
After a while, Xia Nianzhi thought about it and asked: "My grandfather is so good to you, holding you to make your debut with one hand, and giving you resources to make you popular, why did you choose to betray and breach the contract when the Xia family was in danger and dying, and did not hesitate or show mercy." ”
Lu Can's expression was different, as if he didn't want to mention it more, but he encountered Waterloo at the beginning, and he was afraid that Xia Nianzhi would not be honest later.
"The amount of liquidated damages is 200 million, a drop in the bucket, but that's already my best."
Lu Can didn't say it too directly, but the blank part, Xia Nianzhi instantly understood.
However, at the same time, because of the endless possibilities extended by Lu Can's words, Xia Nianzhi was a little at a loss, what does it mean to 'do your best'? Back then, the Xia family was in urgent need of money, and he was trying to help the Xia family raise funds?
"Old Man Sheng doesn't want you to help me, right?"
"Niannian, have you thought about it, this is the next question?" Lu Can asked seriously, and Xia Nianzhi was silent.
Obviously, Lu Can didn't intend to enter into a deep chat on this issue, Xia Nianzhi glanced at him deeply, wondering why he didn't want to continue to defend himself, could he be misunderstood and betrayed, could he endure it? Or is there something else hidden in the events of that year?
For a while, Xia Nian's heartbeat was disordered, and he didn't say anything for a while.
Could it be that she has been wrong about Lu Can? If this is the case, she is the one who is wrong?
Xia Nianzhi drank orange juice and settled down, unwilling to look at Lu Can anymore, and turned to look into the distance again.
The red Ferrari had disappeared into the slope of the alley, but on the parasol at the entrance of the alley sat a man in a black suit, not tall and somewhat thin, with his back to them, reading a magazine in his hand.
Xia Nianzhi stared at the back of the man in the suit, took a deep breath, and then continued to ask: "What's going on with the show "Into Your Circle"? There must be all the questions listed in the interview outline, why don't you stop it in time, and take that show and say those plausible, ambiguous, and not true things at all? ”
"I'll explain this to you in full later. Originally, I was going to give you an explanation today. ”
Lu Can's words are conclusive, and Xia Nianzhi is not easy to hold onto. So, this time to take turns to ask questions, the initiative was in Lu Can's hands, but until Xia Nian came home later, she was wondering, why do people die?
……
Lu Can is also direct, a straight ball: "Between you and Shi Xun, is there a relationship between men and women?" ”
Hearing this, Xia Nianzhi hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, on this issue, Lu Can, this guy is crepe, but he is subtle, but he just wants to ask her whether the scandal with Shi Xun is true or false, and fools know that the curiosity of holding the pipa half-covered face is the most beautiful.
"In the entertainment industry, how true or false are scandals, don't you know?" Xia Nianzhi waved his hand to signal the boss to bring another glass of juice, opened his handbag, and leisurely took lipstick to touch up his makeup, "What's more, he looks so similar to you, because of this face, I have already planted a follow-up, where do you dare to provoke again?" ”
When the words fell, seeing that Lu Can still wanted to continue to ask, Xia Nianzhi didn't want to talk more, so he simply interrupted and said with a smile: "Lu Can, if you see it, you can accept it, you are a smart person." ”
"Well, the second question, who is the father of the child?"
"This isn't the first time you've asked me this question." Xia Nianzhi suddenly became vigilant and asked rhetorically, "What do you mean?" ”
Lu Can leaned back, separated his hands, lazily put them on the handlebars, and stated the facts: "During that time, Shi Xun was invited to participate in the MA Music Festival abroad, and at the same time, because of the shooting of NR magazine's 'Winter Cicada' theme pictorial, he stayed in Manchester City for half a month. ”
He stared at Xia Nianzhi's vigilant gaze and sneered twice: "And you, during that time, happened to attend the financial forum of the Pingcheng Chamber of Commerce, and for the whole month, you were under the guns and guns of the national media. ”
This is very obvious, Lu Can has secretly investigated her, and the investigation is so clear, it seems that it has taken a lot of time and energy.
Thinking of this, Xia Nianzhi sneered unceremoniously: "What do you want to say?" ”
Lu Can's smile did not fade, but the cold air in his eyes almost turned into a sharp sword: "If you want to have a child, it is really not an ordinary difficulty." ”
Xia Nianzhi clenched the juice cup, Lu Can's move had clearly touched her bottom line, continuing to maintain superficial peace, and playing childish games with him when she was a child, unless she went crazy, it was absolutely impossible.
"I didn't expect the dignified Lu Da actor to have the potential to be a policeman, it seems that the entertainment industry has wronged your enthusiasm for devoting yourself to the great cause of serving the people, I really feel very sorry for Lu Can."
……
The air was frozen and there was silence for a long time.
……
Xia Nianzhi didn't expect that her cynicism, but Lu Can was still very calm, not caring at all that she was angry and might run away at any time, and after a while, also because of curiosity, Xia Nianzhi followed Lu Can's line of sight and looked at the corner of the cake shop.
There is a mistletoe there, the branches climbing on the pergola are extremely soft, and the small green leaves are clustered with many pale yellow flower bones, which are gently blown by the warm breeze in the store, swaying clumsily like a child, quite cute and cute.
Xia Nianzhi suddenly remembered the legend, in which on Christmas Day, kissing under mistletoe could win the heart of a lover.
"Are you still alive?"
At this time, the smile on Lu Can's face had completely disappeared, and the water at the bottom of his eyes gradually turned into frost, cold and compelling.
"Niannian, do you remember six years ago?" Lu Can's voice was slow, almost popping out from between his teeth word by word, "It was the Christmas Eve five years ago, when you ran back from Jingtai Pavilion crying. ”
The words did not fall, but in the moment of breathing, Xia Nianzhi's face was pale, Lu Can had no head or end, and suddenly mentioned that six years ago, more than 2,000 days and nights, what a long and long period of time, I can't remember?
Impossible.
"Lu Can, are you so happy to bring up the old things again?"
"Of course I'm happy, after all, that night, under the mistletoe, you accepted my confession and promised to go to the appointment of the white head with me." Lu Can seemed to fall into a memory, looking confused and confused, "Even if, in fact, at that time, the person you liked was not me." ”
“…… Come on. Xia Nianzhi's face was expressionless, disgusted: "It's boring to turn over old accounts." ”
Lu Can didn't stop, and continued to reminisce about the past, and he didn't know if it was himself or Xia Nianzhi's stupid years.
"In fact, I have pretended to be deaf and dumb for so many years, but the facts are the facts, which cannot be denied, let alone ignored."
"I often think about it today, perhaps, there is no so-called deep meaning at all, I am just at that time, the thought of him that he couldn't ask for, and the second choice to retreat to the second thing is forced and helpless."
"Lu Can, I don't want to hear it......"
Xia Nianzhi's mind was very confused, she tried to force herself to calm down, but in the face of Lu Can, who seemed to have recovered into an ice beauty at this moment, it was too difficult to do it.
Lu Can knew the biggest secret of her life, and even six years ago, the biggest shame in her life, he knew it well.
"If it's just to humiliate me like this, you won, I admit that you won this game, are you happy? Satisfied? ”
"In this matter, I'd rather I lose completely." Lu Can's voice was still gentle, but the words changed and asked, "Niannian, I'm curious, what kind of mood did you feel when you agreed to be with me back then?" Sympathize with me? Have pity on me? ”
"I didn't expect you to feel sympathetic and pitiful?"
Xia Nianzhi wanted to laugh very much, but in fact he also smiled, his lips were hooked with a very deep arc, and his eyes were like silk; But if you look closely, you will find that there are tears in it, but she hides it well, and even if she does see it, she will think that it is the warm yellow light in the store, which happens to fall on her eyes.
"It seems that Lu Can, you are planning to raise the teacher to ask for sins today?"
But is it his turn? Pointing fingers at her, judging her, and sneering at her?
