Chapter 138: Old Friend
The advent of the New Year did not stop Lu Xiao's busy pace, and after experiencing emotional confusion, helplessness, grief, determination and the aftermath of the catastrophe, Lu Xiao's current situation is even more worrying. Two days ago, just before New Year's Day, Lu Xiao went to Qingye Manor, not for vacation, not for leisure, but to say goodbye to the past. The feeling of being a person is too heart-wrenching, and Lu Xiao, who wanted to stay for New Year's Day, only stayed for one day and fled in a hurry. It turned out that in front of his sincerity, he was just a nov.
Now, he is still struggling in confusion with his body and mind, but he has hidden all the turbulence.
The family has called home several times for the New Year's Day reunion, but that home ...... Lu Xiao felt that it would be okay if he didn't go back.
Lu Xiao himself can't remember how many New Year's Holidays he hasn't spent with his family, but he doesn't care, because it's better to be casual than to get together in that so-called family.
Thirty years of cleansing a person, but this year I feel extremely empty, it turns out that it is so difficult to forget a person and completely rid her of my heart.
The tea at hand has lost its temperature, and Lu Xiao is the only one left in the once noisy office building because of the New Year's Day holiday. The past is vivid, but there are so many memories that make Lu Xiao feel excited or even happy. Perhaps this is the role of people's negative emotions, once they are entangled in you, they will haunt you everywhere, you can't get rid of them, but you can't forget them.
The office is very clean, and it seems that you can hear your own heartbeat while sitting there. Outside, there was a fog, and the buildings dozens of meters away were already blurred. I can't remember how many days and nights, Lu Xiao and a group of employees fought here, for a creative plan, for a customer's feedback, for all the work.
Huanyu can have today, Lu Xiao knows that he has done his best, but there are some regrets, not that you can make up for it if you work hard.
The emptiness in his heart is about to come out, and Lu Xiao, who has strong self-control, can't suppress it. I still remember the scene of seeing that girl for the first time, it was simply a high-flying and domineering girl, if time could be turned back, Lu Xiao would rather keep that impression to the end.
It's a pity that life doesn't give us a chance to if.
I used to be glad that I could meet someone I could spend my life with and end my single life, but now everything is back to the way it was. It's not tragic, but it's really in response to that sentence, it's easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it's difficult to go from luxury to thrift. Love, once you have it, you are really reluctant to give it up.
Some people may say that Lu Xiao is hypocritical, although his love life is not smooth, but his family, especially his mother, should not be so bad to him. Even if he was not given enough company, he was never disadvantaged in terms of money, and this alone is beyond the reach of many young people.
What's more, Lu Xiao's current stepfather also favors and respects him, what is there not to satisfy in such a life and conditions? Even Lu Xiao is an outsider, and his parents also gave a lot of help both openly and secretly. I am obviously a gentleman, so I have to say how noble I am!
We should be kind, we should learn to let go, and we should learn to be grateful.
Lu Xiao didn't know what many people said about him, but he didn't want to pay attention to it. A thousand people have a thousand mouths, and a thousand mouths have a thousand reasons, and if everyone has to listen to their reasons, and if they have to listen to them, then this person is either a saint or a mentally ill. Lu Xiao doesn't want to be influenced by others, he just wants to live his life in his own way.
In the past, Lu Xiao was a maverick, especially in feelings, he firmly believed that there was no relationship in this world that existed without discussing interests, so he chose to be with Ran Hong without hesitation. Some people look complicated, but it's actually very simple, as simple as just giving money. Ran Hong belongs to this category. Facts have also proved that Lu Xiao's thoughts and practices are correct, because for Ran Hong, talking about money is indeed more tempting for her than talking about feelings.
But some people ...... For example, Yuhan, she doesn't want your money but completely steals your heart.
Her innocence, her simplicity, her lack of utilitarianism, and her wholehearted only talking about feelings made Lu Xiao doubtful, is there really such a girl in this world? But no matter how much he doubted, the results were self-evident. Therefore, Lu Xiao also began to be emotional, and he was out of control, and despised that he could not bring more wealth to Yuhan.
People are really afraid of being tempted many times.
After being with Yuhan, Lu Xiao often felt panicked and powerless, and he even had an illusory feeling when he was holding Yuhan, worried that it was just a dream, and when he woke up from the dream, everything would be over. Lu Xiao, who once thought that he could solve everything with money, also secretly thought to himself that it would be good if he had more money, at least it would increase his inner confidence and bargaining chips.
I have to admit that Lu Xiao had long expected the opposition of Yuhan's family emotionally, and this is also what he has long been afraid of in his relationship with Yuhan. However, when he really encountered difficulties, I had to say that Lu Xiao was really not a man, at least he lacked a fight and struggle.
It is said that love is selfish, but I have to say that in Lu Xiao's love, his love is somewhat "great".
Being in a daze has become the main and all of Lu Xiao's morning, and the large and comfortable desk and chair were given to him by Timmy. It was not long after they got acquainted, and Timmy came to Lu Xiao's office in person to thank him. At that time, Huanyu did not have the current scale, there were not so many employees, and the performance was not as good as it is now. Therefore, Lu Xiao, who is his own entrepreneur and refuses to accept donations, leads by example and lives in a simple place, so that his office as a director can be described as a family with four walls. Timmy's desk and chair really added façade to Lu Xiao's office, so that later Lu Xiao's office environment became better, and the desk and chair given by Timmy are still worthy of the ever-changing office environment.
still remembers Timmy's advice when he gave the gift, and Lu Xiao really lived up to Timmy's expectations.
It is said that excellence is contagious, and this is true for Timmy and Lu Xiao.
The curling water vapor slowly rose in front of Lu Xiao and dispersed and disappeared, and the cold outside could not affect the warmth of the room in the slightest.
"Yohe, you're really here, it seems that nothing has changed since you left me for so long." Suddenly, the office door was pushed open, and a fashionably dressed or somewhat revealing woman pushed the door open. Flaming red lips, heavy makeup, fluffy waves scattered on his shoulders, and the perfume smell that instantly diffused and covered the fragrance of tea, just dragged Lu Xiao back from his spiritual world. His pensive eyes wrinkled for a moment, and when he looked up again, the man was already near.
"Why are you here?" Unspeakable disgust instantly filled Lu Xiao's face, and he stared at the person who came.
"What? Do you have a forbidden area for me here? But no one stopped me when I came up, so I came in. The woman threw her coat casually on the sofa next to her, pulled over the chair opposite Lu Xiao and sat down with a full style, low-cut bottoms, flesh-through stockings, and ultra-short mini skirts......
It is said that a plump woman can arouse some desires of men, but the woman in front of him makes Lu Xiao feel sick to his stomach.
"It seems that I really have to arrange the security guard duty during the holidays in the future......"
"Forget it, don't be too self-exalted, as if I come to you every holiday to report. Besides, don't you feel guilty about tossing other people's security guards with wives, children, and families like this? The woman took the cup in front of Lu Xiao without any scruples, and before Lu Xiao could stop it, the woman left a distinct lip mark on the white cup.
Lu Xiao knew that he should throw this cup again.
"If I'm not mistaken, I should have told you that I don't want to see you again in this place, as well as in me." Lu Xiao looked at each other calmly, and said the most heartless words in the calmest tone. But the woman didn't seem to care at all, she just smiled indifferently, "I know you have a good memory, but you don't have to be like this, right?" How can we say that we are also people who have had old loves, even if we don't think about old loves, how can we be considered old friends, right? Is that how you treat your old friends? ”
"Old friends?" Lu Xiao laughed mercilessly, between them, the last thing they needed was what kind of friend or old friend or something like that.
"Oh, don't look at me with this look, why don't we be together for so long, then the saying still says that a husband and wife are a hundred days, even if we are not husband and wife, but not more than one day, isn't it? It's been so long since we've been apart, don't you miss me? The woman got up from the chair, the screeching sound of her high heels rubbing against the floor, Lu Xiao only felt that countless dazzling sequins were shaking in front of him, and the smell of the pungent perfume became stronger and stronger until he couldn't breathe.
"I don't care what you're here for, I don't want to know what you're going to do, I just want to remind you to get out of here right away. Otherwise...... You know that I am ruthless and it doesn't matter if you are a woman or not! Lu Xiao put a fist across the woman's throat, although it was only an arm's length, it seemed to span the whole world.
"Why are you like this? I just came here and the chair hasn't been hot yet, why did you tell me to leave? You weren't like that to me before. The woman pursed her mouth like a coquette, she was like this in the past, and Lu Xiao believed that this trick had worked on many men, even if it was once herself, there were a few times because of such coquettishness and idealism. But now, he clearly knows the taste of love, and he understands what emotions are, and this trick is no longer useful for him.
