Chapter 54: The Cold War 2
Chen Yu's gaze followed Su Xiao's hand and slowly moved until he could no longer see. He looked at their intertwined hands, and his heart tightened, and a dull ache began to ache in a soft corner. In a depressed mood, he made a phone call after sending an email and left the company.
He came to a restaurant, which was decorated in a somewhat understated but stylish way. There was a person sitting by the window in the dining room, and the lights were in a trance, and his face could not be seen clearly. Chen Yu recognized her from her figure, and he went straight to the table and came to the opposite side of the person.
"Li Mi, I'm sorry, I'm late. Have you ordered? Chen Yu said apologetically after sitting down.
"Nothing, I just arrived. You can order whatever you want, I eat very little at night. Li Mi wore a white sweater, almost without makeup, and looked very innocent.
She and Chen Yu met at a design exhibition. At that time, Chen Yu saw her come to the exhibition alone, and she was very fascinated, and she was very interested. So, Chen Yu enthusiastically took the initiative to help her introduce the characteristics and origin of each design, and she was fascinated by it.
That time, they left each other's contact information. As long as there is a related exhibition or event, they will make an appointment to watch and participate together. Because of their similar interests, they met more and more often, and slowly became good friends who talked about everything.
"What's the matter with you? Seems to be in a bad mood on the phone? How can you be unhappy guarding the goddess?" Li Mi said as she stirred the coffee in front of her.
"She's got a boyfriend." Chen Yu's face was full of frustration.
"That's a bit of a pity. Don't be sad, I believe you can meet better people. After all, you're so good. Li Mi smiled and comforted him.
Chen Yu said that he finally found her, and he was willing to stay by her side silently, as long as he could see her every day.
It turned out that Chen Yu first met Su Xiao at that design competition. It was a high-profile fashion design contest in City A, and many people signed up. Due to the limited number of places to enter the finals, the preliminary selection for the qualification was held. The primary selection is to be evaluated through a written test, which is also equivalent to the first round of screening of the competition.
On the day of the written test, most of the contestants arrived early, and everyone gathered at the entrance of the examination room to wait for entry. When the time came, the exam room opened on time, and the crowd of people waiting for the exam began to surge. Chen Yu was about to show the admission ticket when he was squeezed by the person next to him, and the printed admission ticket flew out of his hand. He squeezed out of the crowd and looked down anxiously for the paper that flew out.
At this time, he heard a sweet and pleasant voice: "Classmate, is this your admission ticket?" ”
Chen Yu looked up and saw a smiling face like a flower, and he was a little stunned. The girl opposite combed her fluffy balls, and the hair on her forehead was tied up, revealing a petite and delicate face and delicate facial features, and her fair cheeks were slightly red. Her big eyes looked like she could speak, expecting his answer.
Chen Yu was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted, he took the admission ticket and looked at it carefully and said, "This is my admission ticket, thank you for helping me pick it up." ”
"It doesn't matter. I'm going to be in too, goodbye. Su Xiao said with a smile, then turned around and walked to his examination room.
Chen Yu wanted to ask her name, but the teacher at the door was already urging, so he had to run over with the admission ticket.
Later, he saw Su Xiao and her design works at the booth of the final of the competition. He admires Su Xiao very much and likes her design style. Their rounds were very tight at the game, and he didn't have time or communicate with her at all. After the game, he chased after him with the trophy, but she was soon gone.
Later, he kept thinking about her. He continued to participate in various design competitions, hoping to meet Su Xiao again, but he didn't see her again. Although he won places in various competitions, he was not happy and even disappointed. Not long ago, he even wanted to give up, but he didn't expect to see Su Xiao unexpectedly when he accompanied his friend to Lingyun Company for an interview. He chased after her, although he only saw the side face, but he still recognized her.
He was a little overwhelmed with excitement. The friend who came to look for him was a little puzzled when he saw this, so he asked him what was the matter? He still smirked to himself, ignoring the people around him. Someone woke him up and told him that there was a job for a designer, and asked him if he would like to apply. He couldn't suppress his excitement when he heard it, and immediately pulled him to submit his resume and successfully conducted the interview. Without any suspense, he entered the company as he wished.
When Qi Jiawen brought him to Su Xiao's side, his heart was beating wildly. But Su Xiao obviously didn't remember him at all, but it didn't affect anything, he felt that the future was long.
He has been very happy these days, especially since they have worked together very tacitly, and everything is going relatively smoothly. He could see that Su Xiao was also very satisfied with his performance, he was a little fluttering, and even began to fantasize about being with Su Xiao. But when he saw Ji Yunshen appear in front of him, he instantly realized that he was late.
Li Mi has been comforting him and talking to him about the senior Li Ang he has always liked silently. She told him that Leon had always had someone in his heart, and even when he was abroad, he never let go of her. Because of this person, Li Ang didn't give her a chance at all. What made her even more angry was that this woman also had a boyfriend with very good conditions, and they once showed affection on the spot in front of her, and she had the heart to strangle her at that time. Even though he knew that the woman already had a heart, Li Ang still did not give up. Li Mi said that she was also in pain and that she didn't know how long she would have to wait. Chen Yu and Li Mi kept chatting and confiding in each other. They didn't know that they were talking to the same person.
The streets of City A are crowded with traffic and neon flashes. On the cold and deep night sky, the moon and the city are far away. The bright moonlight quietly sprinkled to every corner, soothing everyone's heart.
Su Xiao fell asleep in a daze in the early morning, sleeping soundly. The phone rang for a while before she realized it was a voice in reality.
Sleepy-eyed, she reached for her phone on the bedside table, fumbling a few times but not touching it. She opened her eyes and saw that there was no phone on the cabinet, so she turned to look for it on the bed.
She rummaged through the phone pressed under the pillow, and she held it up in a daze and pressed the answer button.
Bai Weiwei's voice came from the other side of the phone: "Su Xiao, are you up?" Yun Shen said that you are not feeling well, how are you? Does it matter? ”
"Huh?." Su Xiao was a little puzzled when she received Bai Weiwei's call, she reacted for a while, and then remembered that Ji Yunshen had said that she would go back to the old mansion together on Saturday. His parents are returning to Hong Kong next Monday. Ji Yunyao also had to go abroad to go through the resignation procedures and arrange other things.
So Bai Weiwei invited them to come over for dinner together on the weekend. However, now that she had completely forgotten about it because of her awkward relationship with Ji Yunshen, she felt a little guilty in her heart.
She saw that it was almost eleven o'clock, and knew that even if she left now, it would be too late.
She couldn't talk about the cold war between herself and Ji Yunshen, so she had to say: "Auntie, it's nothing, I'm just a little tired from rushing to the design draft recently, and my head hurts." I'm really sorry that I've slept until now. ”
"It's nothing, Su Xiao. I guessed that Yunshen felt sorry for you and was reluctant to wake you up. I just called to tell you that Yun Yao and I liked the gift you prepared, thank you. Bai Weiwei's satisfied laughter came out of her phone.
"If you like, I'll see you off at the airport then." Su Xiao realized that the gift was prepared by Ji Yunshen for her, and her heart was both happy and a little unsettled, and her thoughts were already a little wandering when she spoke.
"You have a lot of work, so don't go if you're busy at work, and it's okay if you don't go. We welcome you to Hong Kong. Bai Weiwei said in a very considerate and soft voice on the phone.
Su Xiao responded politely, and she and Bai Weiwei chatted a few more words before hanging up the phone. After she hung up the phone, she couldn't even remember what she said later.
She was thinking about Ji Yunshen all over her head. She didn't understand why he didn't go back to his room to sleep, and he didn't wake her up to go to the old mansion with him, but he helped her prepare gifts for them? And when did he prepare? Why didn't you see it yourself?
"If you're angry, you're angry, it's so weird. It's not like I've been waiting for you all night, sleeping late. Otherwise, how would you have slept until now? Su Xiao still had some complaints in her heart.
She picked up her mobile phone and wanted to call Ji Yunshen, but she was worried that his family would know about their cold war, so after thinking about it, let's wait for him to come back.
She sent a message to Ji Yunyao to apologize. Ji Yunyao quickly replied to her and said that it was nothing. She told her that she had decided to return to China, and that there would be a chance to meet at that time.
Su Xiao also felt that it was okay not to go, she was already a little afraid of seeing Ji Yuanshan, and it was easier not to go. Su Xiao could only comfort himself like this.
