Ten minutes later.

Tea room, private room.

Huo Qing poured himself a cup of tea without hesitation, and after taking a sip elegantly, he looked at the person opposite and said casually: "Is the injury healed?" ”

Zuo Tingchuan also poured himself a cup of tea.

"Almost, I can't die." He said lightly, without any superfluous expression on his face.

Huo Qing raised his eyebrows and was silent.

For a while, in the quiet box, there seemed to be nothing else except the breathing of the two.

Long.

It was Zuo Tingchuan, who lowered his eyes, who took the lead in breaking the silence: "Don't ask me, what are you doing in Qingcheng?" ”

Huo Qingsui smiled casually: "What to do?" ”

Fingertips circled the cup, Zuo Tingchuan raised his head, and seemed to smile: "I heard that you have given up the prosperous world?" Doesn't the new company need to cooperate? Talking to you about cooperation, do you believe it? ”

Huo Qing was noncommittal.

"Huh." Zuo Tingchuan chuckled.

After drinking all the tea, he poured himself another cup and drank another glass as if he were drinking.

And so on and so forth.

Fingers tapped on the table, and Huo Qing glanced at him: "How's the situation?" ”

Left Tingchuan's fingers paused slightly.

He knew what he was asking.

"Okay." He replied, a flash of obscurity in his eyes, and then he looked into his eyes, "Forget it, don't go around in circles, I'll ...... I wanted to see her. ”

Without waiting for the person on the other side to speak, he laughed to himself.

"Lu Yu said, if I don't want to let this body out, the best way is not to see her, so that he has no chance to move, he can't sense her, slowly, he will be silent until he finally disappears."

Until now, he clearly remembered Lu Yu's solemn expression when he said these words that day.

It's not that he doesn't understand.

Can......

He couldn't.

During the treatment day after day, he suddenly found that compared to being replaced by Zuo Yi, what he couldn't bear the most was not seeing her.

He has been looking for her for so many years, he has restrained and even hated, but even so, deep down in his heart he still wants to be close to her, possess her, and let her stay by his side for the rest of his life without leaving.

But then, so much happened.

He had thought about letting go.

But eventually, he found himself unable to let go of her.

That woman has long been engraved in her own blood and bones.

Once branded, it will not be extinguished for many years.

He had also thought more than once, if he had figured it out earlier, if he hadn't quietly left her alone, if he had ...... He could have found her earlier, wasn't it, now by her side, it was himself.

But in fact, what is known earlier, and what if?

To miss it is to miss it.

He and she are impossible in this life.

With a faint smile, Zuo Tingchuan looked at Huo Qingsui's impenetrable eyes again: "She is very happy with you, that's enough." ”

followed all the way, he looked at her all the way, and naturally saw her coquettishness to Huo Qingsui and her dependence on Huo Qingsui, as long as she was by Huo Qingsui's side, the happiness on her face was so obvious.

Huo Qing was noncommittal, but still did not respond.

Zuo Tingchuan didn't care.

His fingers unconsciously rubbed on the cup, and then opened his mouth, his faint voice was much lower, as if revealing unfinished meaning: "She is fine now, and I ...... It won't bother her anymore, don't worry. ”

Huo Qing glanced at him.

"I'm not worried," he said, his voice faint and nonchalant, "after all, she doesn't love you." ”

The water in the teacup shook.

The action was aggravated, and Zuo Tingchuan closed his eyes.

Two seconds later, he opened it again.

Oh, yes.

She doesn't love herself, she doesn't love.

"You have to stab me like that?" He laughed, poured himself another cup of tea as if nothing had happened, and drank it all.

Tea has a bitter taste.

But no matter how bitter it is, how can it compare to his heart?

The teacup was empty again.

Zuo Tingchuan wanted to pour another glass.

I don't want a hand to be one step faster than him.

"Tea, you need to taste." Huo Qing withdrew his hand and said lightly.

Zuo Tingchuan smiled.

I never thought that one day, he would sit with this man so calmly and drink tea.

He didn't drink any more, but he began to savor it.

Silence ensued.

Neither of them is a man of many words, so they don't find it weird.

However, after a moment, it was Zuo Tingchuan who broke the silence.

"I have asked Ling Lei to submit evidence to the police station here that Huo Dongting wants to put you to death in Rongcheng, how is his case progressing now?" When Huo Dongting's name was mentioned, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Huo Qingsui took a sip of tea, his voice was warm, but it was enough to make people shudder: "The police have already mastered the evidence, and it will be submitted to the procuratorate in the next two days, and I believe that the trial will start soon." ”

Huo Dongting...... Naturally, he can't escape, and he won't let him have the possibility of escaping.

Zuo Tingchuan instantly understood.

It seems that Huo Qingsui did something, otherwise it would not be so fast, after all, no case process can go so fast.

"It's me who is overthinking." He was a bit self-deprecating.

The person who once wanted to harm her, this man, how could he let it go.

"But if you want me to help, just ask."

"Hmm."

The two of them each took a sip of tea.

Since then, the topic has passed.

Soon after.

Zuo Tingchuan got up, his eyes were a little dark: "I still have something, go first, don't tell her that I've been here." ”

After that, he didn't wait for Huo Qing to say anything, and walked straight to the door.

Only as he put his hand on the doorknob, he paused.

"Huo Qingsui." He turned.

Huo Qing lifted his eyes.

Zuo Tingchuan hooked his lips suddenly, and seemed to smile: "By the way, I heard that you are investigating the evening court media?" No need to check, that's mine. ”

The words fell, and the door opened.

He walked out.

Behind him, Huo Qing's eyes immediately darkened.

Private Kitchen Shop.

Xia Wan pushed open the door of the box, and at a glance saw Ji Weiran sitting at the window in a daze.

"Micro-dyeing!"

Hearing the sound, Ji Weiran turned his head.

"Micro-dyeing!" Xia Wan ran over and sat down beside her, looked her up and down, and only dared to breathe a sigh of relief after making sure that she was fine, "What's wrong?" Is there something urgent? ”

Ji Weiran shook his head, and stopped talking.

Xia Wan was worried: "What's wrong, tell me." ”

"I ......"

"Micro-dyeing!"

The door was pushed open suddenly, and a familiar sound drifted into my ears.

Xia Wan was stunned, turned her head, and immediately said in surprise: "Yanyan?!" ”

It's not that I'm surprised that Gu Yan appeared, but that I'm surprised...... What he was holding in his hand.

A large bouquet full of stars.

The most important thing is that in the starry sky, there are also a few roses, which are put together and are extremely harmonious.

Xia Wan subconsciously counted quickly.

Eleven roses.

Eleven......

The meaning of a lifetime.

And she also knows that the favorite flower of micro-dyeing is the starry sky.

A starry sky with eleven roses.

Don't......

Xia Wan's gaze moved upward, and sure enough, he caught the embarrassment and surprise that Yan Yan was about to hide on his face.

She understood, Yan Yan didn't know that she would come, so she was surprised, and she was slightly dyed...... I'm afraid I'm looking for myself to block it.

These two ......

Retracting his thoughts, Xia Wan smiled and deliberately glanced at him: "Why are you standing there, not coming in?" ”

Gu Yan suddenly came back to his senses.

"Oh...... Oh. Licking his lips, he answered, a little overwhelmed, and after sitting down opposite the two, he still asked, "Wanwan, how do you ...... Here it comes? ”

Although he asked himself, Xia Wan clearly saw that his eyes were still slightly stained.

"I ......"

Before she could say anything, she heard the slightly dyed words beside her-

"Didn't you say last time that the three of us hadn't been together in a long time? So I called Wanwan. ”

Xia Wan blinked and simply poured herself a glass of water.

Gu Yan's eyes obviously flashed with loss, but he didn't show it in the end, and even returned to the hanging boy when the three of them met in the past: "Also, how can you pull a snack for dinner when you eat." ”

After that, he put the flowers aside casually and took the menu: "Have you ordered?" Order whatever you like, your movie is about to be released, and I will celebrate the box office success for you in advance. ”

His gaze kept falling on Ji Weiran.

Ji Weidye, I know it.

"Okay." Softly answered, she took the menu and studied it.

Seeing this in the summer evening, I could only lean over and watch it together.

And the two of them lowered their heads, and no one noticed the bitterness and self-deprecation in Gu Yan's eyes.

This private chef restaurant has a reputation for being able to hook up every dish, even the simplest sour and spicy shredded potatoes.

Originally, Xia Wan and Ji Weiran ordered four dishes, but Gu Yan didn't think it was enough, and ordered a lot, all of which they liked to eat.

The food in the store was served quickly, and the three of them chatted while eating, but basically, it was Xia Wan and Gu Yan talking, and Ji Weiran always talked less, but today, there were fewer.

Xia Wan naturally knew why, but she couldn't say it, and at present, she could only pretend not to know and accompany her.

A meal, even if the summer evening has the heart to adjust, but the atmosphere is still dyed with some indescribable weirdness.

For example, Yan Yan sneaks a glance at the micro dye from time to time.

For example, the mind wanders several times, and the desire to speak stops.

Another example......

And this atmosphere ended after Gu Yan suddenly received a call from the company and had to leave.

"Huh......" Xia Wan breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the words that had not been taken away, and then looked at the person beside him, and asked directly, "Yanyan...... I confessed to you, right? ”

She saw her slightly tinted eyelashes flutter.

"Micro-dyed ......"

"Hmm."

Xia Wan reached out and covered the back of her hand to reassure: "You...... Or did you reject him? ”

"Wanwan," Ji Weiran pulled her lips a little bitterly, "He ...... today." I was asked for an answer, and I hid from him for two days, and I ...... I didn't dare to face him alone, so, I found you, I'm sorry......"

"What stupid are you talking about? What's so sorry about this. Xia Wan sighed silently and reached out to hug her, "Weiran, I remember what you said to me, but when I saw Yan Yan today, I still want to ask you, ...... Don't want to give it a try? ”

Ji Weiran's body stiffened slightly.

She didn't speak.

Xia Wan patted her on the shoulder: "If you don't try, will you regret it in the future?" If...... Can words deal with the problems between you and his parents? Even so, don't you want to? Micro-dyeing, what happened back then, it was not your fault, why should you punish yourself for other people's mistakes? ”
