065: Where's the ring? I'll put it on for you.
The snow had been falling all night, and the next day I woke up and stood in front of the window, the whole city was wrapped in a layer of silver, and the sky was overcast, as if it would be the next one later.
The streets were sparsely populated, with only one or two cars sliding slowly.
The transparent glass reflected the figure of Xihe in a thin blanket, his face was slightly pale, and his lips were also chapped and peeled. She tightened the thin blanket she was draping on, and even when the heating was turned on indoors, the slightest chill still penetrated and invaded.
There was a knock on the door suddenly, and Xi He turned around and paused for a few seconds before stepping forward to open the door.
It was Xu Youbai, and when he saw her open the door, he immediately flashed in: "It's really cold outside, and the next snow plane is delayed." β
"So we can't leave for a while?" Xihe turned around and asked.
He smiled at her: "Don't worry, Mr. Li Muyi's matter has not been dealt with yet." When he takes care of it, we'll go back with him. β
Xihe raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise: "Do you know Mr. Mu Yi?" β
Xu Youbai smiled lightly, his warm eyes saw her pale face, he smiled and came to her: "Are you uncomfortable?" Why is your face so pale? β
As he spoke, he put his hand on her forehead to check her temperature, and then his brows furrowed slightly: "Is it a fever?" β
Xihe brushed his hand away, "There may be a little, it doesn't matter......"
"How can it not matter, your own body itself is not unaware? Wait, I'll buy you medicine. He interrupted her without saying anything, and then left without looking back.
Xihe didn't have time to stop it, only to see the corner of his gray coat flash outside the door.
She raised her hand and tried her forehead, it wasn't too burning, but her throat was itchy and uncomfortable!
Xu Youbai bought cold medicine nearby as quickly as possible, and when he went back, he accidentally ran into his friend Lu Yan, who he hadn't seen for many years, outside the elevator.
Behind him was a man with an inch head, standing in a straight posture, with his hands behind his back, holding his head high, and having a professionally trained military temperament, cold and difficult to approach.
I heard that he was still in the army, so it was not difficult to guess the identity of the person behind him.
Xu You's eyes flickered under the white lenses, and he started to pass.
Lu Yan heard the footsteps, turned his head indifferently, and the moment he saw him, his ink-colored eyes froze for a second, and then narrowed slightly.
Xu Youbai walked up to him, with a gentle and humble smile on his face, and said hello: "Lu Yan, I didn't expect it to be you, I haven't seen you for a long time." β
The cold face did not reveal any expression, and the deep meaning of the dark pupils floated, staring at Xu Youbai's face, as if he didn't know it. His gaze moved down to the medicine he was carrying, a clear plastic bag, and it was easy to tell what kind of medicine it was.
Lu Yan retracted his gaze indifferently, and after a while, he said coldly: "Long time no see!" β
Xu Youbai stood side by side with him at the elevator entrance and waited for the elevator, and said with a smile: "How long have we not seen each other?" Why didn't you tell me when you changed your phone? β
"Troop secrecy." The thin lips opened lightly, and the four words prevaricated.
Xu Youbai smiled: "How is it, are you okay all these years?" β
Lu Yan looked straight ahead, he was silent and didn't answer, he didn't know how to answer!
He, Lu Yan, doesn't have such a big and broad mind, so he can pretend to be casual and continue to play with Xu Youbai as a child. Just yesterday the confession was rejected, and today Xu Youbai has already arrived at the hotel...... Was it agreed in advance? Or something else?
In this emotional game, Lu Yan has never had such a deep understanding at this moment, and from beginning to end, he is a complete fool.
The elevator opened with a "ding", and when he raised his feet to enter, he only said in a clear and fluttering voice: "Let's go." β
Xu Youbai followed, he pressed the fifth floor and asked Lu Yan how many floors he went up, and Han Yi behind him hurriedly replied: "It's also the fifth floor." β
The gentle smile on Xu Youbai's face never changed, and when the elevator closed, he turned his head to look at Lu Yan seriously, and chuckled: "I haven't seen you for many years, why do you look more and more cold and unkind?" β
"Really?" Lu Yan still didn't smile: "I don't feel like this." β
Xu Youbai chuckled lowly, "I haven't seen you for a long time, go out for a drink at night?" β
Lu Yan was about to speak, but Xu Youbai interrupted him first: "Hey, don't tell me anything about quitting smoking and drinking, I finally came back, why can't you say it if you don't entertain me?" β
Lu Yan pursed his lips and didn't speak.
It just so happened that the elevator had arrived, and they were almost in the opposite direction.
Out of the elevator door, Xu Youbai was afraid that he would forget to tell him again, saying that he would call Liu Hao and Pei Yuqing at night, and everyone would not be separated.
Lu Yan walked forward without looking back, Xu Youbai's voice was brisk and free, as in the past, as in the past, he sent him to the airport and patted him on the back and said take care, and the person he contacted by phone when he turned back has not changed much at all.
But has it really not changed, or is it just the surface?
From this Xihe scandal incident, a certain investigation involved Pei Yuqing, and Lu Yancai suddenly had a kind of thing, in fact, it may be just him who hasn't changed!
γ
Xihe had just had time to change his clothes, and Xu Youbai came back.
She didn't close the door, he just came in, carrying the cold medicine he had bought for her.
As soon as he saw her, he said: "I went to buy medicine for you just now, and I saw a very funny young man, skiing on the snow marks rolled out of the road, and as a result, the cars behind thought it was porcelain." β
Xihe was tying her hair, and when she heard his words, she somehow remembered the scene when she was a teenager and went to the ice rink with Lu Yan.
With roller skates on your feet, you can fly as fast as you can in the ice rink.
It's a pity that she hasn't learned it until now!
She suppressed the faint pain in her heart, turned back to Xu Youbai and said, "When I go back to the United States, you can teach me to skate!" β
Xu Youbai looked at her in surprise, he put the water on the table and straightened up: "Why did you suddenly remember to skate?" β
Xihe thought, "Hmm...... I want to try that speed. β
Xu Youbai walked over, he took her into his arms, grinding her cheeks: a hoarse voice, hot air sprayed on her ears, with a little trembling: "As long as you want, I will depend on you for everything." By the way......" His hand covered her delicate little hand, as if he had just discovered it, and asked casually, "Why didn't you wear the ring I gave you?" Dislike? β
He deliberately approached, Xihe was not used to it, but when she thought of something, she forced herself to adapt to his hugs, his kisses, and even the sharing of beds in the future.
She made her voice sound as unremarkable as possible: "I have to take it off when I go to bed at night, I have to put it on again in the morning, and I ......forget about it when I get busy."
In fact, when the plane left the ground, she looked at the ring on her left ring finger in a daze, and she didn't know what she was thinking at the time, so she finally unloaded it and put it in her bag......
Xihe was very glad that Xu Youbai was hugging her from behind at this time, and he couldn't see the dodge in her eyes.
His mellow smile came from his ears, as if bursting out of his chest: "Why are you so honest? Can't you say nice things to make me happy? Aren't you afraid that I'll be sad? β
"I'm sorry......" Xihe said.
Xu Youbai hugged her tightly: "Fool, you don't need to tell me I'm sorry. What about rings? I'll put it on for you. β
"βin the bag." Now that she has chosen to forget, she shouldn't be holding on to anything.
Xu Youbai took out the ring from her bag and came to her, he solemnly picked up her hand like the scene when he first proposed to her, and put the dazzling diamond ring on her hand.
He told her seriously: "In the future, don't take it off again." Well? β
Xihe nodded: "...... Good! β
Xu Youbai said that he was going to take her to meet someone, Xihe couldn't think of who it would be, and when he went out, he was afraid that she would freeze, so he pulled a scarf and put it around her neck.
Careful and thoughtful, Xihe sometimes feels that as long as she stands there and does not move, Xu Youbai will help her do anything she needs.
What a woman may need in this life is such a man who knows her warmth and coldness and truly loves herself, she is already very lucky, so she knows how to cherish it.
The direction of going out was to Mr. Mu Yi's side, Xihe felt that she might have thought too much, but when she met Louis who was coming over in the corridor and Lu Yan who was following behind, she still stopped slightly out of control.
Xu Youbai glanced at her, and when Louis approached, he turned his head and greeted him: "Where are you going?" β
Louis's stern face saw their holding hands, and there was a rare relief, and he spoke in English, speaking very quickly.
Xi He didn't want to distinguish it, her eyes looked at the expressionless, cold and solemn upright and handsome shadow, she had built a lot in her heart before, but she couldn't see it at a glance.
His cold eyes moved away from her face, and easily landed on the clasped hands, and his eyes saw the ring on her left ring finger, which was unusually dazzling.
Xihe felt it, and her hand broke free from Xu Youbai's big palm.
Xu Youbai, who was talking to Louis, looked back at her and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Is it cold? β
"Okay, let's go first!" Louis said in Chinese this time, with a different attitude, amiable like an elder.
Xu Youbai felt a little regretful, and Louis walked in front of him.
Followed by Lu Yan, his extremely cold aura was like an Antarctic snow river, he ignored the two people next to him, and when he walked by with straight legs, he felt that he didn't dare to approach easily, let alone touch it.
At the moment when Tongxi and rubbed shoulders, her hand hanging down to her body shook violently, and then she was quickly held by a big palm.
Xihe raised her head in a panic, her eyes crashed into the warm eyes under the glasses, she was suddenly a little dizzy, she didn't remember if Xu Youbai noticed the gaffe just now? But at this moment, his pale and panicked look was clearly reflected on his lenses.
"I ......" she wanted to explain something.
Xu Youbai took her hand and turned around and walked towards the elevator, his voice was as gentle as water, "Were you scared by that person?" β
Xihe didn't know how to respond to him, and she nodded along with his words in confusion and ridiculousness.
Xu Youbai chuckled: "Don't be afraid, I'm by your side." β
Xihe felt even more guilty, obviously she had already thought about forgetting, but she still lost her sense of proportion when she saw him easily!
